Have you ever pedaled through the Sonoran desert, hiked through a Hawaiian rainforest or snorkeled in a seven-acre protected saltwater lagoon? When it comes to planning a vacation, outdoor activities and new adventures often take center stage.
After all, Starwood Vacation Ownership Resorts are located in the dramatic Arizona and California deserts, the majestic Rocky Mountains, on the quintessential Caribbean island, the magical isle of Maui, Hawai‘i, and many other popular destinations. The abundance of easily accessible outdoor adventures inspires exciting vacation dreams.
At The Westin Ka‘anapali Ocean Resort Villas, you can don your hiking boots and step deep into the Hawaiian rainforest of Haleakala National Park. Within the lush green terrain of this park, you'll discover chains of pools connected by cascading waterfalls, and may even spy brightly colored birds native to the tropical isle. Explore another area of the park, and peek into Maui's mystical Haleakala Crater. Or, you could set sail out to Molokini—an extinct volcanic crater off the island's southwest shore—to snorkel amongst more than 250 species of undersea creatures.
To stir the adventurer within by rappelling down rocky cliffs, set your sights on The Westin Mission Hills Resort & Villas in Rancho Mirage, California, or one of our Scottsdale-area resorts. While at any of our resorts in the desert southwest, you can savor the spectacular scenery by riding horseback through the desert, biking through the craggy mountainside or taking to the sky in a hot air balloon.
You can also enjoy the great outdoors without going to extremes. Simply explore the quaint towns surrounding a resort, stroll through an area park, enjoy an outdoor concert or even take to the greens on a championship golf course.
Of course, knowing what outdoor activities are available near your destination will help you make the most of your vacation. You'll first want to visit the Resort Collection area of the site, where you can learn more about each of our Starwood Vacation Ownership Resorts and then explore the assortment of outdoor activities near each one.
As a Starwood Vacation Network(SM) member, your travel options can also extend far beyond the Starwood Vacation Ownership Resorts. If you're dreaming of hiking through idyllic rainforests in Australia, swinging your clubs on historic Scottish links or enjoying the alpine scenery of the Austrian Lake District, your vacation ownership will also help you turn those dreams into reality.
