Darnell Nurse's wife Mikayla gives sneak peak into their luxurious Maui holiday amidst 4 Nations break

Edmonton Oilers defenseman Darnell Nurse is spending the 4 Nations Face-Off break in Maui with his wife, Mikayla. Since he wasn’t selected for Team Canada, he is enjoying some downtime.

Mikayla shared photos from their trip, showing beautiful views and relaxing moments. In one picture, the couple was on a boat, smiling with the ocean behind them. Another showed them sitting together, dressed in stylish outfits and holding drinks.

"Maui you stole my heart and my stomach," Mikaya captioned on Monday.

Their vacation includes great food. One snap featured a pepperoni pizza by the pool. Another showed a seafood platter with oysters and crab legs. A breakfast spread with pastries and fruit was also captured.

The couple is staying in a luxury resort. Photos showed an infinity pool with ocean views and a pool area surrounded by tropical plants. A sunset over the water added to the peaceful setting.

Mikayla also posted a mirror selfie in a black swimsuit, with Darnell standing beside her. They also spotted a whale in the ocean, making for a special moment. The trip includes sightseeing, with misty mountains and coastal beaches in their photos.

Darnell is making the most of his time off before returning to the Oilers for the NHL season.
