Unplug and step back in time to the golden era of Waikiki with a Reading Retreat on the island of Oahu, Hawaii. Spend 3 nights in a 1950s tropical oasis completely renovated to add contemporary amenities to midcentury modern architecture. Bring your books along for a sunset cruise on a private 1929 luxury yacht, learn the traditional art of Hawaiian lei making, sip mai tais by the pool, and sink your toes into the famous white sand of Waikiki beach. Oh, and don’t forget the hours of uninterrupted reading time every day! You won’t want to come back to modern day reality.
