Just spent 5 nights here and very pleasantly surprised. The staff are all 100% bought in to delivering the best service. The atmosphere is adult and relaxed. Very pleased we chose this resort! The real upside to this resort on the shuttle service they run from the resort to the local area. All the cars are high end and the staff treat you like royalty. It's all in with the package so make sure you take full advantage of this service

Overall, we were very impressed with Hotel Wailea. We loved the ambiance and vibe of the hotel. We appreciated all the extra details and touches that made the stay so welcoming. The hotel grounds are also stunning and very well kept. The adults-only aspect is why we booked in the first place and would stay at the hotel again just based on that alone. My only criticism is that the fine dining left something to be desired. The breakfast was amazing. Otherwise, Hotel Wailea is a lovely hotel. Well done!

Hotel Wailea: A Luxury Disappointment!
After recently experiencing three Hawaiian luxury properties, Hotel Wailea stands out as an extraordinary failure. The room featured visibly dirty, worn furniture and outdated decor reminiscent of the early 2000s. Basic functionality was compromised: continuously running toilet, non-working clothes steamer, and uncomfortable air conditioning aimed directly at the bed. The...
After recently experiencing three Hawaiian luxury properties, Hotel Wailea stands out as an extraordinary failure. The room featured visibly dirty, worn furniture and outdated decor reminiscent of the early 2000s. Basic functionality was compromised: continuously running toilet, non-working clothes steamer, and uncomfortable air conditioning aimed directly at the bed.
The overcomplicated lighting system proved frustratingly difficult to operate. Dangerously insufficient pathway lighting caused my husband to fall during a pre-dawn walk to the gym, with staff displaying alarming incompetence in handling the incident.
Dining proved equally disappointing - unremarkable, overpriced food lacking Hawaiian authenticity. Adding insult to injury, our "welcome gift" arrived as we were literally departing for the airport, oops, sorry!
The staff appeared woefully undertrained and powerless to address concerns. This establishment has completely lost touch with contemporary luxury standards, explaining why discerning travelers, like me, choose Four Seasons (Lanai) or Ritz Carlton (Oahu) instead.
Between safety hazards, dysfunctional amenities, poor timing, subpar service, underwhelming food, and dated accommodations, Hotel Wailea exemplifies how not to operate a luxury property.

Many fourplexes on a hill that is surrounded by residential homes and residential lots for sale. Apartment complex/condo look and vibe with well-manicured grounds.

Many fourplexes on a hill that is surrounded by residential homes and residential lots for sale. Apartment complex/condo look and vibe with well-manicured grounds. Very large elaborate central building with a restaurant, artificial waterfalls,
lobby seating, large meeting room, etc. I few people used the restaurant, and I only saw staff in other parts of the building. One bedroom apartment like room with many steps was clean and serviced daily. Attached are pictures of our view from the room and the 11'x12' patio. Most folks chose self-parking for ease of coming and going making the self-park lot always full when returning from exploring. The valets would put beach chairs and umbrellas in our trunk for exploring, a benefit we liked. We thought the restaurant pretentious, not a good location for nearby restaurants. For the money, we regret not getting a suite at a hotel with a good beach.

The Hotel Wailea is a gorgeous boutique property with beautiful suites and exceptional service. The couples only concept creates a quiet, calm, peaceful environment. The grounds are stunning and so well maintained. We stayed in the Celebration suite which was beautiful as you can see in the photos below. We loved every minute of our stay and found that every attention to detail was made. The staff members were kind, thoughtful, and accommodating. The Birdcage is amazing. We loved going there to listen to the lovebirds and watch the sunset each night with friends. This was the perfect couple’s resort and the Hotel Wailea definitely deserves the 5 star rating. We hope to return and certainly recommend Hotel Wailea for your next trip to Maui!

Amazing Adults Only Resort

I can’t recommend Hotel Wailea enough! From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, we had an absolutely spectacular stay. Everyone was friendly and accommodating and helpful. The hotel itself is magical. The suites are private and so well equipped and decorated beautifully. My husband loved the fact that he could ask for more cookies on demand. Sometimes it’s the little things. Being an adult only resort was the main attraction for us but once we arrived, we realized there was so much more to the resort that made it spectacular, including the pool, the restaurants, the gym and The Birdcage. Hotel Wailea did not disappoint us in the lease and we are already looking forward to our return.

My wife and I made our second trip to this beautiful resort. The first trip was wonderful. But this trip was beyond wonderful. The staff was extraordinary. The restaurant and the Birdcage offered exceptional offerings. The room we had was quiet, except for the babbling brook outside to issue a calming influence. And the location offered wonderful access to the upscale Wailea village. A magical experience, highly recommended!
