The 758-room Westin Maui recently built a $5-million spa and gym. To further add to the healthy environment, smoking is no longer allowed in guest rooms. I love the fabulous custom-designed, pillow-top "heavenly beds," which come with a choice of five different pillows. If that doesn't give you sweet dreams, nothing will. Once you get up, head to the aquatic playground -- an 87,000-square-foot pool area with five free-form heated pools joined by swim-through grottoes, waterfalls, and a 128-foot-long water slide. This is the Disney World of water-park resorts, and your kids will be in water-hog heaven. The fantasy theme extends from the estatelike grounds into the interior's public spaces, which are filled with the shrieks of tropical birds and the splash of waterfalls. The oversize architecture and $2-million art collection make a pleasing backdrop for all the action. Most of the rooms in the two 11-story towers overlook the aquatic playground, the ocean, and the island of Lanai in the distance.
