MAUI
Score: 88.42
Maui wins again, thanks to a plethora of diversions, from biking down Haleakala Crater and sunbathing on Kaanapali beach to driving the twisty, cliff- and waterfall-lined road to Hana. It’s also the perfect place to do nothing other than watch whales breach and enjoy the sense of time standing still. As one T+L reader wrote: “Our favorite Hawaiian island, a sentiment that is as true today as when we first visited more than 40 years ago.” Added another: “I could move there tomorrow and be happy!”
