PICTURE THIS:

You searched high and low for the ultimate Hawaii girls trip in 2027, and you found it. You land on Maui, and the welcome gift is already in your room. The villa is at Ho'Olei, private, walk-to-the-water, the kind of place that is fully booked to the public and open to me. No front desk to argue with. No resort hallway that smells like every other hotel.

Mornings are slow and yours. Coffee on the lanai before anyone else is awake. Breakfast handled. Then the day opens up into the things you would never book for yourself, because booking them is a job, and you already have one.

We move to Kauai mid-week, and the whole mood shifts. Maui is golden and social. Kauai is green and quiet and a little wild, with cottages tucked into Waimea, the side of Hawaii that does not show up on the front of the brochure. Most people pick one island and miss the contrast entirely. You get both, and the inter-island flight is on me.

By the last night, you will have the kind of photos that have a job to do, and the kind of memory that does not need a photo at all.

This is the version where you say yes once and never think about logistics again.

I am a luxury travel advisor, and I build the trips most people only describe. I have already booked the villas, locked the islands, hired the guides, and reserved the tables. That is why this is the perfect Hawaii girls' trip for solo travelers. You pack a swimsuit and show up. The planning is done, the access is mine, and the only decision left to you is which beach you want to be on when the sun goes down.


Here's what we're doing:

Day-by-day

Island Glow Retreat: Day by Day

Island Glow Retreat:
Hawaii Girls Group Trip

April 29 – May 7, 2027 · Kauai & Maui

1Welcome to KauaiThursday, April 29+

You land, you drop your bags at our cottage, and you exhale. Tonight is about settling in, meeting the women you are about to make memories with, and letting the island work its magic on you. The welcome dinner is included, and we are tentatively having a chef or a catered meal at the cottages; it will be the kind of evening that reminds you why you said yes to this.

Stay: Waimea Plantation Cottages, Kauai

2Art, Snowcones, and a Friday Night You Won't ForgetFriday, April 30+

Before lunch, we are painting surfboards and eating shave ice, because if you're in Kauai on a Friday, you do it right. We will then have a catered lunch at the cottages. After that, the day is completely yours. Explore, nap, wander, do absolutely nothing. Then, as the sun starts to drop, we head into Hanapepe for Art Night, a Friday evening tradition in one of the most charming little towns you have never heard of. Local artists, local food, and an atmosphere that feels like nothing else on the island.

Dinner will not be included on this night, but we will be in town with food trucks and you will be able to get whatever food your heart desires!

Stay: Waimea Plantation Cottages, Kauai

3Into the Tunnels and Into the Sea (Maybe)Saturday, May 1+

Morning mountain tubing through Kauai's old sugarcane irrigation tunnels, which is exactly as wild and fun as it sounds, and a light lunch will be included. Then, the rest of the afternoon, you get to choose your agenda. Zero obligations, but there will be an optional catamaran where we will likely see dolphins!

Stay: Waimea Plantation Cottages, Kauai

4Yours To DecideSunday, May 2+

Early in the morning, there is an option to head up to Waimea Canyon, the Grand Canyon of the Pacific. The views are the kind that stop you mid-sentence. Bring your camera if you go; you are going to need it! We will have a light lunch while hiking and return around 3 pm.

If you decide not to add on the hike (totally valid), you will have the entire day to explore!

There will be a dinner included on the last night on Kauai to say a hui hou, details TBD.

Stay: Waimea Plantation Cottages, Kauai

5Aloha, MauiMonday, May 3 — Inter-island flight+

We fly inter-island and land in a completely different world. Maui is lush and cinematic and dramatic in a way that hits you the second you step off the plane. We check into our villa, get settled, and wake up tomorrow to ocean views! It is a totally free day besides travel. No other meals besides breakfast provided on this day.

Stay: Ho'olei at Grand Wailea, Maui

6Butterflies and an Optional LuauTuesday, May 4+

We spend the morning at the Maui Butterfly Farm, which is as magical and surreal as it sounds. Then, we will have lunch at Leoda's (included) and have a snow cone for dessert. After that, the afternoon is yours to enjoy everything at the villa, such as hula lessons, ukulele, beach yoga, beach chairs on Wailea Beach, or just a long, slow afternoon by the water.

For dinner, it is on your own this night, and there is an optional luau available to add on for those who want the full Hawaii experience, complete with fire dancing, traditional food, and cultural performances. Totally optional, absolutely worth it.

Stay: Ho'olei at Grand Wailea, Maui

7The HelicopterWednesday, May 5+

This is THE day. We board a helicopter, and it LANDS in Hana. In the jungle. Surrounded by waterfalls. And we even pop champagne to celebrate as girls!!! I have been thinking about this moment since I started planning this trip, and I genuinely cannot wait to watch all of you step off that helicopter and realize where you are.

We get back to the villas around 2 PM, and the rest of the day will be yours to enjoy.

We will have dinner at Maui Brewing Co at 7:30 PM.

Stay: Ho'olei at Grand Wailea, Maui

8Molokini and One Last SunsetThursday, May 6+

We start the morning snorkeling and kayaking Molokini Crater, a partially submerged volcanic caldera off the coast of Maui and one of the most pristine snorkeling spots in the Pacific to kayak and snorkel. It will include a light lunch and snacks. That evening, we close out nine days together with a farewell beach picnic dinner as the sun sets over the water. I am already emotional thinking about it.

Stay: Ho'olei at Grand Wailea, Maui

9Fly HomeFriday, May 7+

Fly home, check out, and head home. Sunkissed, full, and completely changed by nine days in paradise. That is the trip. Every single day of it. Breakfast is the only meal included on this day.

✷ Roommate Matching ✷

Coming solo but don't want a single room? I've got you. If you book double occupancy without a roommate in mind, I'll personally match you with another wonderful woman on the trip. I take this seriously and I'm thoughtful about it, because who you share your space with matters. You can also tell me if you already have a friend you want to room with, and I'll make sure you're paired up. Either way, you'll never feel like the odd one out. Some of the best friendships from these trips start with a shared villa and a late-night conversation on the lanai.

Get To

Know

Started my biz in 2022  solely booking honeymoons.

your  

WHEN DID I BECOME A TRAVEL ADVISOR?

WHAT IS MY FAVORITE ICE CREAM  FLAVOR?

I share a birthday with Kate Middleton, so I am basically a princess.

A COOL FACT ABOUT ME?

My dog Oxford & my cat Maisel are my world! I would bring them every where if I could. 

DO I HAVE PETS?

Hostess

I just finished the 3rd season of  Euphoria and the entire first season of  Big Mistakes. Both were 10/10.  My all-time show ties are Jane The Virgin and Schitts Creek.

WHAT SHOWS AM I CURRENTLY WATCHING?

Hands down, Strawberry Cheesecake with a little chocolate sauce. .

Is my deposit nonrefundable?

Yes, your $555 deposit is nonrefundable. The second you book, I'm putting real money down on your behalf. Lodgings at Waimea Plantation Cottages and Ho'olei Villas at Grand Wailea get real money down, our group activities get held, and the planning machine starts running. Those commitments aren't refundable to me, which means I can't make them refundable to you.

Think of your deposit as your spot officially saved and your name locked into this experience. It's what lets me confidently say "you're in" and start building the magic around you. If you ever need to step away after booking, this is exactly where travel insurance comes in, which is why I recommend it so strongly (more on that below).

when is the full payment due?

Your final balance is due 30-ish days before we depart, so that puts your last payment on August 18th, 2027. You don't have to wait until then, though. A lot of women love spreading payments out over the months leading up, and you're welcome to chip away at your balance anytime you want between now and that final due date.

I'll send reminders so nothing sneaks up on you, and you'll always know exactly where you stand. If you set up a custom payment plan with me, you will also have a specific due date that you will know well in advance. 

DO I NEED TRAVEL INSURANCE?

You're not required to buy it, but I highly, highly recommend it, and here's the honest truth about why. I'm able to cancel this trip for any reason if I ever needed to. You don't have that same protection unless you buy travel insurance that gives it to you. Without it, your deposit and payments are at risk, and if something comes up between now and our departure, that money could be gone.

With the right policy, you're covered for things like trip cancellation, interruption, medical emergencies while we're traveling, and lost or delayed baggage. The piece I really want you to pay attention to is "cancel for any reason" coverage, because that's what gives you the same flexibility I have. Plans like that typically run around $300, which is a small price to protect a vacation you've invested real money and dreams into.

DO I NEED TO BE ATHLETIC OR YOUNG TO GO ON THIS TRIP?

Nope, not at all. This trip is built for women of every age and fitness level, and you get to choose your own adventure. Some of our activities are active, like hiking Waimea Canyon or kayaking and snorkeling, and others are pure relaxation, like our farewell beach picnic or soaking up the views.

You're never required to do anything that doesn't feel good in your body. If you want to push yourself, the opportunities are there. If you want to take it easy and savor the slow moments, that's beautiful too. This is open to any woman 21 and up, and I've found the magic of a trip like this comes from the mix of women who show up. The only thing you really need is a sense of adventure and a willingness to say yes to a little magic. Come exactly as you are.


Do I have to rent a car?

Nope, not required. I've got your airport transfers covered on both islands, and all of our group activities include transportation, so you'll never be stranded or stuck figuring out how to get around. Show up, and I'll handle getting you where you need to be. Plenty of women on this trip won't rent a car and won't miss it one bit.

That said, a rental is a great option if you want the freedom to explore on your own during downtime, grab coffee off-property, or chase a quiet sunset on your free day. And here's the perk: if you and your roommate split a car, I'll take $222 off both of your trips, that way it makes it easier for you to share the cost of the car. If you were leaning that way anyway, you're getting rewarded for it, and splitting it two ways makes it easy on the wallet. Going solo? You still get the discount for just you at $444. Car or no car, you'll have a full, rich week either way. 

What ages are going on this trip?

This is a great question that I have been getting a lot lately!  I have amazing women going and interested in this trip, that are anywhere between 26 and 74! I want a variety of women from different backgrounds, age ranges, and places in life to come together and make lifelong connections, memories, and even friendships in Hawaii together. If you're a woman aged 21, all the way to 109, you are welcome to come with us to Hawaii!

Laura helped my husband and I plan our honeymoon to Hawaii. I never thought it would be as easy as it was, but Laura made everything a breeze by listening to what we wanted and booking just that. She is always available, easy to communicate with, and takes care of the not so fun parts of vacationing. We had an amazing time, and she will be the one we call every time!


Laura made the entire trip stress free!

I truly cannot express how happy we are to have had the pleasure of working with Forever in Paradise Co. to plan our perfect honeymoon! We requested a tropical, relaxing paradise vacation and Laura delivered! From the hotel to helping us plan a last minute excursion I cannot recommend her enough! We stayed at Hammock Cove in Antigua and would highly recommend for any couples looking for paradise and relaxation! Will definitely be using her for all future vacations!


I cannot recommend hiring laura enough!
