Latest Kapalua hotel reviews
WestMaui Says: Kapalua Spa opened to much anticipation in July and already lives up to the hype about it being the best destination spa on Maui. It's truly beautiful, like an elegant beach house, overlooking Kapalua Bay. The huge building is mostly open-air and all components, from the...
annk Says: This is an excellent diving and snorkeling beach as the water is calm and protected by a reef. There is easy access into the water from the nice sandy beach. It's a great place to teach young children to snorkel as there is a large population of reef fish many which can be...
annk Says: This tip could fit under a number of categories, Must See since it's an historical building, but also Restaurants & Shopping.The Honolua Store was built in 1929 by pineapple plantation carpenters and was the gathering place for residents and workers. It provided supplies,...
annk Says: The beach is closest to the Ritz-Carlton but there is also public access as well. Beautiful wide sandy beach, surf is present, there were some boogie boarders and surfers at some spots. Did not look good for body surfing as the waves crashed very quickly and too close to...
annk Says: This bay is located just north of Kapalua and is another excellent snorkeling/diving spot on Mauai. It must be good if the snorkel tours come here as shown (the 2 Trilogy boats). Sneakers are recommended walking down to the beach as it's rocky. The best access to the water...

annk Says: Hotel has 548 units all with views of either the golf course, pool area, ocean or combination. Hotel and surroundings are beautiful and sits on a hill overlooking the Pacific and the Island of Molokai. In front of the hotel is an ancient Hawaiian burial ground which is off...
Fish & Poi at Napili Shores Resort: Nice little quiet restaurant with good food.
kimod74 Says: Fish and Poi restaurant is located next to the lobby of the Napili Shores Condos. The restaurant appears to be on the edge of casual fine dining, I guess one could say. I wore a nice summer dress and my husband wore shorts and a tshirt. The restaurant is for the guests of...
My experience with local restaurants
annk Says: In general, restaurants in Kapalua are very expensive but we managed to find a couple of places that were reasonable.Honolua Store - Made to order breakfasts and lunch. Generous portions and excellent prices. Breakfasts started at $2.95, lunches around $5.95. Can eat on the...
Napili General Store: Little General Store Close By Napili Shores
kimod74 Says: Since Napili Shores and Kapalua are kind of like the "last little areas" west of Maui Napili General store is a small store back in our little corner of the world. You CAN drive about 1 mile up the road to the Napili Shopping Center but if you just want to stop in and by...
Snorkel Bob's: Great place for renting snorkel gear, boogie board
kimod74 Says: Close to Napili Shores Condos and Kapalua Resort. If you just want to rent some snorkel gear for a day you can get good gear for about $5 per person per day. Cheaper rates apply if you rent the gear for an entire week, I think it ran around $10 for a week. $5 per day for...
Always on the lookout for wildlife
annk Says: I'm always searching for wildlife wherever I go. Did spot these red-crested Brazilian cardinals close to the resort and golf course. They are not native to the Hawaiian islands but are found on the islands of Maui, Oahu, & Kauai.
annk Says: Snorkeling and scuba diving are popular activities sports. Kapalua Bay was our favorite and it's considered to be one of the safest areas with its protected reef. Reef fish could be seen in just a few feet of water. Pick up a free Maui Dive Guide at one of the local dive...
annk Says: I'd guess a large percentage of people visiting Kapalua are here for one thing only, to play golf! It has 3 championship courses each with a clubhouse, pro shop & restaurant. Millions of TV viewers have watched Kapalua golf via worldwide telecasts of pro tournaments like the...
annk Says: I've been to Hawaii many times but always visited in the fall. This was my first spring trip and to my surprise the Hawaiian waters were teaming with humpback whales! From November through early March humpbacks can be seen playing, frollicking and breaching in the warm...
annk Says: These pine trees look similar to Norfolk Island but generally have a wider cone shape. They were discovered by Captain Cook and were brought to Hawaii from New Caledonia. D.T. Fleming a plantation owner and conservationist, planted over 13,000 pines by 1920 in the...
