  • The bathroom in my room at the Four Seasons Maui at Wailea blew me away.
  • I never expect much from a hotel bathroom, but this one definitely wasn’t an afterthought.
  • It had dual sinks, LED mirrors, luxurious robes, and even a built-in music dial.

I never expect much out of a hotel bathroom. If it has a working toilet, a shower with a curtain, and a sink, that’s a win in my book.

But during a recent stay at the Four Seasons Maui at Wailea — which you might recognize from the first season of “The White Lotus” — I found a whole new level of luxury in the bathroom of my deluxe ocean-view room.

From double sinks with LED mirrors to a built-in music dial that pumped out different genres on demand, the bathroom surpassed my expectations by a mile.  

Editor’s note: Insider received a discounted media rate for the one-night stay. Room rates can vary, but the deluxe ocean-view room was listed on the Four Seasons website as $2,275 at the time of booking.

On a trip to Hawaii this May, I spent a night at the Four Seasons Maui at Wailea. If you’re a “White Lotus” fan like me, you’ll recognize it from the first season of the show.

I stayed in a deluxe ocean-view room on the sixth floor. At the time of booking, one night in this room was $2,275, but rates vary throughout the year and my stay was around Memorial Day. (Insider received a discounted media rate for the stay.)

When I walked into my room, I made a beeline for the balcony, or lanai. The view of the Pacific Ocean was beautiful, and I thought it’d easily be the best part of my room. But I was mistaken.

Don’t get me wrong, the balcony was stunning. But the palatial bathroom took my breath away. I actually squealed when I opened the door and saw the size of it.
