Hotel Wailea

We chose Hotel Wailea primarily because of their no kids policy which is totally worth it. We willingly paid a premium for the Celebration Suite since we were- in fact- celebrating our anniversary. The view was breathtaking and the suite was great. We loved going to hang out at the pool in our downtime.

This place is top tier in every way. I stayed here for my first solo trip and it truly was special and flawless. It was exactly the relaxation that I needed after a week at an intense work conference. From the incredible hospitality to the 24/7 concierge service, I felt extremely well taken care of throughout my stay. Anytime I didn’t want to walk somewhere, I could simply call/ WhatsApp or text and an employee would pick me up. While I prefer to be close to the beach, it honestly was so nice here that you do not even notice it. When I decided to go to the beach, I was driven there and they even provided towels and a beach chair. An employee also picked me up when I was done with sunset- highly recommend making this trip! I visited Polo Beach which was the closest option and it was absolutely beautiful. The best sunset views and very good vibes. The food was delicious. I looked forward to breakfast every morning and the pancakes are a must! They are so tasty you don’t even need syrup. The breakfast views were incredible and I’m grateful to my Amex FHR benefits for the daily complimentary breakfast. The Birdcage restaurant was my favorite and it’s fabulous and like the name states it is full of birds. The bird sounds do get loud but the views are so worth it! The salmon and skewers I ordered were amazing and spending sunset at the restaurant with those incredible views was truly special. I took SO many pictures! The photos don’t do it justice but I tried my best to capture the magic. I felt completely relaxed and loved my stay here. The attention to detail was evident everywhere from the luxurious beauty and body products ( which smelled amazing!) to the incredible bathtub and high tech Toto toilets (which reminded me of Japan) to the most comfortable bedding and couch to stunning balcony views. I traveled to another city and hotel after this stay and could not stop thinking about Hotel Wailea. You spoiled me and I can’t wait to return to Maui and to this property in paradise!

I was changing here from the Aston Mahana as given the mixed reviews I was fearful to spend all my Maui-stay there. I wished I had not changed. The Wailea is not bad. But for 5 times the price I would like to see at least some advantages. Which I could not. Its remote location far from the sea is obviously not granting real sea views and involves quite some logistics before you can find a nice dinner (off-site) or do any sea-activities. That I knew. But what made me unhappy was the rather humid smell in the suite, roaches in the bathroom and limited steering of the ac as well as a lounge which seems nice only 3 minutes until the first bird poos on you.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My trip to Honolulu wouldn’t have been the same without Jessica. From the moment I arrived at Hotel Wailea, she made me feel at home. She wasn’t just an amazing host—she quickly became my friend, one I hope to keep for life. Her kindness, warmth, and genuine care truly stood out and made my stay unforgettable. Jessica is the reason I enjoyed my trip as much as I did, and I’ll always be grateful for her wonderful hospitality.

From the time we arrived until we left, we couldn’t have asked for a more peaceful, wonderful experience! Our room was spacious with a beautiful view—wish we had planned on more than 3 nights! The car service was great for sunset trips to the beach, restaurants, and shopping excursions. The staff was most accommodating and really friendly. We will definitely return! Mahalo!
