The Ritz-Carlton, Kapalua blends into the natural contours of the land while preserving panoramic "ocean views
Amenity highlights: Everything is world-class, including the golf courses and nearby golf academy, the professional croquet lawn, the three-tiered pool terrace, the cove like beach with its prime snorkeling areas, the Waihua health and beauty spa, the tennis center, the smart shops, the food, and the tropical drinks. Even the luau/Polynesian show wins honors. Within the resort and protected by hedges is a sacred Hawaiian burial ground. Respect for Hawaiian history and culture begins with a film in The Ritz-Carlton's theater and extends throughout the resort's activities and facilities: complimentary lei-making classes in the medicinal garden, for example, and a shopping area where Hawaiian artisans practice their crafts.
Insider tip: Guests can request a special bath package. A butler draws a scented bath (choice of scent) and provides appropriate background music and a towel warmer. Chocolates and choice of champagne, mai tais, or fruit and juice are included.
This 548-room resort fits beautifully into its 50-acre former-pineapple plantation setting. That history is honored in the hotel's grand plantation-house design, complete with peaked roofs on many levels and blue-green wrought-iron balcony railings against pale stucco walls. The small, European-style lobby introduces the resort's homey style, which extends to the public rooms' soft-colored furniture and original Hawaiian motif paintings. Though many activities are offered, guests are not pressed to participate but left alone to enjoy the resort's hospitality as they wish.
The resort also features overnight shoe-shine service, a tour/travel services desk, and services for the hearing impaired, in addition to the property amenities listed below.
