Though Hawaii doesn’t have traditional all-inclusives, these resorts allow you to bundle options for a nearly all-inclusive experience.

Do all-inclusive Hawaii resorts exist? The answer is both yes and no. While you won’t find traditional all-inclusive resorts that package accommodations, activities, meals, and gratuities in one rate per person, you will find all-inclusive Hawaii family vacation packages at full-service resorts plus other incentives that allow you to have a nearly all-inclusive experience on the islands.

From the sand and surf of Oahu to tropical oasis that is the Big Island, it’s easy to see why Hawaii is one of the most popular family vacation spots in the United States. And while the best Hawaii all-inclusive resorts for families aren’t fully inclusive in the literal sense of the term, they do give you options to build your own all-inclusive-like experience, freeing you up to sit back and just enjoy the vacation. Here are the top Hawaii resorts with inclusive packages.

Here are the top Hawaii resorts with inclusive packages.

 

1. Aulani, A Disney Resort and Spa
Oahu, Hawaii

Aulani’s nightly rates include so many activities and amenities that it feels all-inclusive
Okay, so Aulani isn’t technically a Hawaii all-inclusive resort. But this Disney resort on Oahu includes so many activities and amenities in its nightly rates that it certainly feels all-inclusive. Among the inclusions are nightly bonfires with storytelling, resort walking tours, a game room, ukulele lessons, Disney character experiences, kids’ clubs, and live entertainment. All told there are more than 30 included activities, enough to easily spend a week busy and happy without paying an extra dime on things to do.

 

Of course, access to this newly all-inclusive Hawaii resort’s beach, as well as its many countless pools, lazy rivers, and splash pad is included in the rate, as are the pool parties and dive-in movies hosted there. Like most Disney hotels and resorts, Aulani has thought of pretty much everything you might need or want on your Hawaii family vacation.

2. Embassy Suites by Hilton Waikiki Beach Walk
Oahu, Hawaii

Embassy Suites by Hilton Waikiki Beach Walk goes all in with free perks
Located steps from world-famous Waikiki Beach on Oahu, the all-suite Embassy Suites by Hilton Waikiki Beach Walk offers a different kind of nearly all-inclusive Hawaii experience that relies heavily on complimentary perks. Stock up on groceries at a local supermarket and cook lunch and dinner in your spacious suite with a fully equipped kitchen, but leave breakfast to the resort—that’s complimentary and includes a bountiful buffet each morning. The hotel also hosts evening receptions with complimentary snacks, beverages, and often live entertainment.

 

Other complimentary all-inclusive-like perks include the Grand Lanai, where you’ll find a heated pool, whirlpool spa, children’s pool, and sun deck with cabanas and day beds for lounging. Be sure to inquire about the hotel’s specials before you book, too—it regularly offers packages, many of them designed for specifically for families, such as the “Another Night on Us” promotion that gives you a fifth night free when you book five nights.

 

3. Royal Kona Resort
Big Island, Hawaii
Royal Kona Hawaii All Inclusive Resort
Royal Kona Hawaii All Inclusive Resort offers airfare-inclusive vacation packages. On the Big Island, Royal Kona Resort has offered all-inclusive resort pricing in the past, and is currently offering a number of vacation packages, including airfare-inclusive vacations that combine accommodations and flights in one discounted rate.

Other Royal Kona Resort packages offered at varying intervals throughout the year include a car rental and parking package that ensures you’ll get a rental car in Hawaii; and a “Royal Experiences” package, which includes daily breakfast for two and special-event perks like luau tickets and a dinner cruise.

Once you arrive at Royal Kona Resort, you can take advantage of scheduled activities, a swimming pool and saltwater lagoon, and of course the nearby beach at no extra cost, just like a true Hawaii all-inclusive resort.

4. Royal Lahaina Resort and Bungalows
Maui, Hawaii

Royal Kona Resort’s sister property on Maui, Royal Lahaina Resort is not a traditional all-inclusive resort, but like the Royal Kona Resort it sometimes offers an air-inclusive package with discounts on both flights and room rates among its special offers.

Other money-saving promotions at this Hawaii resort that run at varying times throughout the year include 10 percent off any room or suite when you book 45 days in advance; a fifth night free plus a resort credit that can be used for spa or beach activities; and a “Royal Experience” package that nets you daily breakfast, luau tickets, and a resort credit for activities.

Royal Lahaina Resort is located right on the beach, where all guests enjoy free access to the sand and surf, as well as beach activities and rentals. Families also get free access to three outdoor pools (two of which are oceanfront) and two hot tubs.
