About the Hotel
The Ritz-Carlton Kapalua, hidden within the folds of Maui's verdant landscape, is the picture of posh. This decorated AAA Five-Diamond Award beachfront resort, which recently underwent a $180-million transformation, sits on a 54-acre expanse and is more magnificent than ever. From the airy guest rooms to the half-dozen restaurants, The Ritz-Carlton Kapalua will amaze even the most seasoned of travelers. Its stylish rooms boast new furnishings and amenities, including dark wood floors, flat-panel televisions, sleek marble bathrooms with showers and separate tubs, spacious lanais, and island-inspired artwork. Insomniacs will enjoy the convenience of the 24-hour ocean view fitness center and yoga studio. Perhaps the resort's piece de resistance, though, is the addition of a new 17,500-square-foot spa retreat boasting 15 plush treatment rooms, private outdoor shower gardens, a pair of al fresco couples cabanas, plus relaxation areas fashioned after volcanic stone grottos and outfitted with whirlpools, steam rooms and saunas.

Reviews for The Ritz-Carlton, Kapalua
every moment of our stay was perfection.....
from check in...with cool towells and flavored water, to being offered an upgrade (which we accepted), to sitting in the beautiful, tastefully decorated lobby and to just being in such a beautifully designed space which offered calm, relaxation and a feeling of being pampered...we had stayed here some years ago and appreciated the new lobby furniture, the new shop in the lobby for breakfast, the refreshed rooms and the pool amenities...everyone was cheerful, eager to help or point us in the right direction..was an outstanding way to begin our stay on Maui...will return...thank you all at the Kapalua Ritz...you gave us a great memory.

No open parking - Forced to Valet $68
CONS- --I would give it a 5 star review if I hadn't been raped by the valet for $68/ day. I asked if there was any public parking, and they said no. --The beds were some of the worst I have slept on in an upscale hotel. --I was thinking this was an adult hotel, but there were kids screaming at the pool. --The breakfast buffet was over $60 per person ($120 for both of us) not including tips. We ate off property for only $40-50 for both of us. --The Luau was very mediocre PROs- The staff was super great and very attentive. The restaurants served great food. The room was nice.

Amazing!
Such an amazing experience! The grounds are beautiful, the service is A++ and when we arrived, we were taken care of with so much love and care from Margie! We also did a wine tasting course with Brian which was incredible. Food at the lobby bar was delectable.

it’s fine.
it’s fiiiiine. the rooms are very dated. service, pool service, in room dining, dining in general all much closer to a Westin than a Ritz. Not bad but not Ritz. That being said gorgeous property. Beach is a little far and although it feels overpriced the rest of Maui is too and it feels more a reflection of that. If you can afford better do it otherwise you’ll have a good not great stay.

Would not repeat
Writing this as I check in, haven’t event finished the stay yet. Will update review after the stay. But for now… - mandatory $65/day valet with no self parking anywhere nearby - did not honor ambassador upgrade despite suite availability online and it being a special occasion. - $60 daily resort fee covers WiFi and Lei at arrival, random beach walks? total waste Not a luxury property by any means on service or grounds. Would not waste points and definitely would not pay to stay here. Hopefully the stay changes my mind.
