The “Getaway” schedule comes packed with activities like Maui Undersea Adventures, outrigger canoe paddling, oceanside yoga, and more.

The former takes place at the newly reopened Ferraro’s Restaurant & Bar, with Champagne Laurent-Perrier on offer. The latter happens at DUO Steak and Seafood, with Darioush offering several vintage bottles.

Four Seasons Resort Maui General Manager Ben Shank commented: “We look forward to welcoming guests to experience all the extras we have planned this fall. The team has put together a thoughtful calendar that offers something for everyone.” 

He continued, “Whether you’re seeking a deeper connection to the culture, culinary or wine experiences, or a light-hearted game of pickleball, our Getaway experiences provide opportunities for our guests to create lifelong memories, all with the backdrop of world-class Wailea Beach.”

Additional “Getaway” experiences include the following:

Hawaiian Star Stories: Noted navigator Kala Babayan Tanaka describes how Polynesian wayfinders used the stars, currents, and winds to journey around the Hawaiian islands.

Poke Pop-Up: Enjoy Hawaii’s classic dish, poke, paired with Maui Brewing Company’s craft beer.

Don’t sleep on Central California: Discover its charm on your next road trip
Get lost in the core of the Golden State
Asilomar State Marine Reserve, California

When it comes to California, the credit tends to go high and low. Up north, there's San Francisco and the Napa Valley wine scene. Down south, the swaying palm trees that frame big cities like Los Angeles and San Diego. But this road trip season, we're advising you to go central.

California's core is full of charming towns, amazing food, and a rugged coastline begging to be photographed. By all means, start central at Yosemite National Park or any number of great wine-growing areas. But be sure to head west and play around in and around the coast, where there are fewer crowds and tons of attractions that appeal to beach bums, hikers, foodies, and cocktail lovers alike. Here's your ultimate guide for a California road trip in Central Cali.

The culinary experience at Atlantis Paradise Island you won’t find elsewhere
Flavors that extend beyond the Bahamas
Atlantis Paradise Island

When I think of a Bahamian vacation, the first foods that come to mind are conch fritters and a delicious Bahama Mama. These classic Bahamas foods make for the perfect lunchtime bites, great for when you need a light meal while sitting poolside. Yet, when traveling to a tropical destination, going out to dinner is the part of the day I look forward to the most. Come dinner time, I seek more than just good food. I want an experience.

As great as it is to nibble on snacks for lunch, I'm already planning what to order for dinner hours in advance. If you're anything like me (and don't even need a menu because you've already studied it online), the food on your vacation can make or break the experience. Here's how Atlantis Paradise Island sets itself apart from the typical Bahamian vacation through its unique culinary scene.
