In a remote corner of Kauai’s North Shore, you’ll find 9,000 acres of Hawaiian paradise at the St. Regis Princeville. The property, which underwent a multi-million dollar renovation in 2009, boasts 251 gorgeous rooms and suites, a Jean-Georges restaurant and an infinity pool with views that’ll leave even the most seasoned traveler speechless. St. Regis Princeville’s General Manager Milton Sgarb took us inside the hotel’s most requested room and the spaces that served as the set for George Clooney’s Academy Award-winning film.
