Nestled on Maui’s picturesque Wailea Beach, the newly renovated Grand Wailea, A Waldorf Astoria Resort, offers a luxurious 40-acre escape in one of Hawaii’s most stunning settings. The resort’s location provides breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean, easy access to pristine beaches, and a perfect blend of relaxation and adventure in the heart of paradise.
Grand Wailea stands out for its impressive array of world-class amenities. Guests can indulge in the award-winning Kilolani Spa, offering treatments inspired by Hawaiian traditions. The resort boasts nine sparkling pools, including a lava tube slide and lazy river, ensuring fun for all ages. Dining options range from fresh local cuisine to international fare, with elegant restaurants and casual beachfront spots catering to every palate.







You absolutely must dine at Humuhumunukunukuāpuaʻa, the signature seafood and steak restaurant set in beachfront lagoon. The food and drinks are exquisite! And yes, that is a glass aquarium bar top.





Accommodations at Grand Wailea are the epitome of luxury. Spacious rooms and suites feature private lanais, plush bedding, and modern touches that blend seamlessly with Hawaiian decor. During our visit, we were hosted in a Deluxe Ocean View Queen. There are oodles of options, including Ho‘olei Villas for extended stays.




For an elevated experience, the Napua Tower provides exclusive perks, such as personalized concierge service and access to a private lounge.


The resort’s lush gardens, striking waterfalls, and breathtaking sunsets create a serene backdrop for an unforgettable vacation. And imagine this as the backdrop of your destination wedding!



There are weekly cultural activities including hula and ‘ukulele lessons curated by the on property Cultural Ambassador, and a Grand Lu’au on select dates. There is also a shuttle to transport guests around Wailea. It runs on a very limited schedule.
This resort is ideal for luxury-minded couples and families who want luxury accommodations, white glove service, and a full list of amenities on hand, wrapped in a bow of authentic Hawaiian charm. If this appeals to you, I would be honored to book your stay.
