Back to ‘Top 10 Most LGBT Friendly Vacation Destinations’

If you’re planning a trip with your partner, you can’t rule out Hawaii. While you may be rolling your eyes at the cliche of a romantic vacation to the classic Pacific islands, a trip to Hawaii is anything but cliche, and well deserving of its famed reputation. From pristine beaches to buzzing cities to rainforest adventures and more, Hawaii is the perfect mix of lazy beach days with outdoor adventure. Plus, with dozens of gay resorts and gay-friendly spots throughout the state, you can spend your nights in a luxurious hotel that you know will be open-minded and accepting. Check out the best gay resorts in Hawaii to start planning your trip.
