Kauai is such a peaceful, magical island…specifically the North Shore. My favorite area is Princeville…I’d love to retire there someday. Where to stay: The St. Regis for all-out luxe or the Westin (both in Princeville). All of the Westin rooms are suites with huge whirlpool tubs and the hotel is affiliated with the St. Regis so guests are free to use the pool there (nice perk). Must eats (mostly on the North Shore): Postcards Café in Hanalei for a fresh fish dinner (in an old, non-descript high-ceiling house). Restaurant Bar Acuda in Hanalei for a romantic atmosphere and small plates. Dolphin Restaurant…
