Wailea Maui Resort – A Stunning Escape with Some Drawbacks
My stay at Wailea Maui Resort was truly unforgettable. The resort is breathtaking, with stunning ocean views, lush grounds, and a peaceful atmosphere. The room was spotless, the bed incredibly comfortable, and the overall cleanliness and attention to detail made the stay even more enjoyable.
The food was excellent—flavorful and well-prepared. However, the prices were extremely high, and some portions were disappointingly small. At this price point, certain basics should have been included. Upon arrival, there were no traditional leis or welcome drinks—small gestures that would have enhanced the experience.
The luau was fantastic, and guests should remember that tourism is the island’s main source of income. However, the resort should give back more to the local community instead of focusing so much on upcharges. Charging extra for beach chairs felt excessive—this should be included.
Despite these drawbacks, the overall experience was wonderful. The beauty of the location, quality of the accommodations, and serene ambiance made it worthwhile. However, for the cost, I expected more in terms of inclusivity and guest experience. I hope the resort reinvests in the local community and rethinks some of its extra charges.
