...island of Maui, half an hour by plane from Honolulu, which connoisseurs consider the handsomest of the lot. The Hana-Maui Hotel is so revered an institution that some of its affluent guests (like Faithful Vacationer Marshall Field Jr.) arrange to skip Honolulu completely, fly by private plane directly in and out of Maui. Just within the past six months, a first-class championship golf course designed by Robert Trent Jones has opened, flanked by two new luxury resorts. One is the Royal Lahaina. a 32-cottage settlement and semiprivate club. The new Sheraton-Maui is less expensive but more...
