Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa
Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa is located along a three-mile stretch of Ka’anapali Beach and set upon 40 acres of paradise with a cornucopia of things to see and do. There are restaurants and bars nestled into tropical waterfalls and streams along with tennis and championship golf, if that’s your thing. You’ll also find a large oceanfront spa and fitness center, a water playground for the little ones, and majestic wildlife such as swans, flamingos, and penguins. Last but not least, the Drums of the Pacific Lu‘au — one of Hawaii’s most well-known luaus — takes place right on-site. Read on for an overview of our stay at Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa.
What You Need to Know
The Look of Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa
One of the best parts about walking into a sprawling Hawaiian hotel is immediately feeling like you’re on vacation. Here, the open atrium looks out onto the gorgeous ocean, and it's the first thing a guest sees when walking in. All rooms have a beachy-chic aesthetic with light woods and crisp white linens — and each has private lanais with glass balconies and breezy Kimono-style robes. Restaurants run the gamut from casual to more upscale, but none feel stuffy. The free-form pool areas are expansive, so they never feel crowded (plus, kids will love the waterslide). The Spa Kamaha‘o is a bit removed from the hotel (but just a short walk), which makes it all the more serene. Pre- or post-treatment, take advantage of the included steam room, hot tub, sauna, and lanai with loungers looking out to the water.
The Vibe at Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa
Laid-back luxury is the vibe at Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa. The F&B program offers upscale options so that you can sip a craft cocktail or an umbrella drink while lounging in a cabana. Guests include everyone from honeymooners to families, all of whom are primarily in swimsuits during the day and resort attire come evening. Japengo, which serves modern Pacific Rim cuisine and excellent sushi, is a favorite among the restaurant offerings. On the night we visited, our party was seated next to a local couple — so you know it’s got to be good.
Who Will Love Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa
The resort is ideal for just about anyone: There’s enough to keep kids entertained, but it’s equally lovely for a romantic weekend; plus, the spa makes for the ideal friends getaway.
