An Insider's Take
'Perched on Maui's pristine northwest coast, this oceanfront sanctuary sits on ancient Hawaiian burial grounds that have been respectfully preserved, creating a deeply spiritual connection to the island's sacred heritage.' What's Special? The resort overlooks the legendary Honolua Bay, one of Hawaii's most revered surf breaks and a Marine Life Conservation District teeming with tropical fish and Hawaiian green sea turtles. The property features the only three-tier infinity pool system in Hawaii, cascading down toward the Pacific Ocean.
WhatAHotel! Pro-Tip: Book snorkeling at Honolua Bay during winter months (December-April) when the waters are calmest and visibility reaches up to 150 feet—it's consistently ranked among the world's top 10 snorkeling spots.
Don't Miss The resort's signature Aloha Friday tradition featuring authentic Hawaiian cultural performances and the nearby Kapalua Coastal Trail, a 1.76-mile clifftop walk offering spectacular whale watching during humpback season (January-March).
