This is a gorgeous property but it’s north and set back far from the beach. The original plan for the hotel site is a protected burial site.It explains why hotel is set back. One average with resort and parking fees and taxes it’s 100$ a night additional to the nightly cost. The drinks are 20-30$. Staff is friendly and rooms are spacious but the balcony and views of the beach are subpar for the price. Umbrella included but no beach food or drink service. The shuttle service only takes you within Kapalua you must drive or Uber everywhere else. The 2 beaches south of the hotel are more family friendly. Hotels there not as luxury but they are right ON the beach . Overall views are breathtaking for our first time to Maui but I probably would have stayed somewhere else knowing the micro climate and beach distance. We got a great deal through Expedia but unable to get Marriott points for the stay.

Food was horrible !!!! and very expensive. Not enough food choices and too far away from everything you have to rent a car and it was also a mandatory 65 a day valet fee. The lounge had a roach that kept crawling on our chair which was embarrassing. I'm just very disappointed for tje money i spent

I did not get the room type reserved; I mentioned it and they changed the room to what they said was better but still did not get the ocean view booked; and clearly they had rooms facing the direct ocean but did not put me in one, it should not be advertised as ocean view if there is no clear view of the ocean, it was my bday trip and I wanted and was expecting the best of everything and thought u was booking such, everyday I told my friend how let down I was, bc everyday something happened, I should not have to look around corners or major items to get jus a slither of a glance of ocean. Hotel outdated, need room up date, only staff that was extremely friendly and seemed happy to be working was the lady who passed out leis and Cynthia. They cleaned the room once a day and left only two washcloths a day, common trend is leave four everywhere else. Room service is a major let down, left special instructions that weren’t followed, when food arrived fries were cold, fish tasted like nothing, I sent it back. I requested laundry services and of course they did not come pick it up until after I called a second time hours later. The hotel is far from a lot of things so consider when staying. I would have preferred to stay closer to the city area, we were a hour drive from airport. I’ve stayed @ other ritz locations bf and those visits were my basis for going with ritz Maui. This was the biggest mistake I’ve made in booking a hotel. It has made me even rethink booking ritz again.
