The Grand Wailea is the perfect hotel-resort. The rooms were great with wonderful views of the ocean and it is in the perfect location in Wailea, Maui. The beach is wonderful and the resort is great. At Christmas, it's busiest time of the year there are lots of families so the resort (pool, slides etc) is overrun with children everywhere. The spa was great and well priced. Only issue was that the breakfast in the large dinning area was terrible and expensive. In addition, the prices at all of the restaurants like the one at the pool are outrageous. Overall we had a great stay and would highly recommend it.
This hotel is enormous and their art collection is world class so you should go see that if you are in the area. The room was spacious & beautiful and the service was impeccable everywhere. We ate only breakfast at the hotel since it was included in our package & the buffet was wonderful. The pool is so much fun, even for those not with children. it's like a water park with several slides, a lazy river, etc. The beach is also very nice and there was good snorkeling right from the beach. I didn't like the distance from our room to the beach/pool area. it felt like a mile. But once you got down there it was fantastic!

The lush gardens, the fabulous pools, and the beach are all wonderful. The hotel is very large and thus can hold many, many people. When we visited in August, the hotel was very full and included lots of families. By mid-morning all beach umbrellas were gone and all sitting spots around the pools were also taken. So don't expect just a few people at the beach and around the pools. The location is great as it is right next door to an upscale shopping mall and great restaurants; and several more wonderful beaches are within walking distance. The onsite "humuhumu" restaurant is located in a lagoon and offers great sunset views.a great place to have dinner.

We returned for another great stay in Maui, and everything was awesome yet again. The staff is pretty friendly, especially the housekeepers. One thing we learned to do is run by the grocery store for the basics like water and breakfast items, because it is really expensive at the hotel. The coffee in the room is great and free. The pools and the ocean out front are so much fun and were very clean. We travel a lot and stay in nice hotels all over, but Grand Wailea is our favorite and cannot wait to return next year!

This resort was wonderful. It is beautiful! The buffet breakfast is fabulous. Complete with handmade pastries, fresh fruit, custom omelttes, and more. The restaruants at the resort were great. My husband and I looked at the other neighboring resorts like the 4 seasons and they are not as spectacular and they were more expensive. THe beach is one of the best in Maui and the gardens are a vacation all on their own. The staff was friendly and helpful. This is an expensive resort but it was worth the money!

Our stay at the Grand Wailea was outstanding! We stayed at the resort for 8 nights and the service provided by the entire staff was exceptional. The room was very large, clean and quiet. The pool was incredible and the grounds were immaculate. Our stay at the Grand Wailea exceeded our expectations and as a result of the great service we received from the entire Wailea staff, we are planning to return in the near future.

From the time you get out of your car and are greeted the experience at this resort was amazing. The landscaping was beautiful, the staff friendly, the pools were perfect, and the beach was one of the best in Maui. If you are looking for an "experience" I highly recommend staying at the Grand Wailea.

The Grand Wailea is a beautiful resort with lots of amenities. The pool and the slides are a wonderful addition. The spa is, by far, the best one that I have been too! The food is great and the location is perfect! It would have to be the best hotel in Maui!
