Ultimate luxury at one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. If you want true luxury, look no further. It offers everything you expect at such hotel; great service, true hospitality, smile and quality. If you can afford $100 more per night, don't go to average nationwide hotels but try Ritz Carlton Kapalua. It's the best Ritz I've ever... more

I have stayed in several luxuray resorts and hotels all over the world. This is by far the most incredible hotel I have experienced. If you want an incredible vacation or honeymon please stay here. My only regret is that we are only here for 5 days, we are vising other islands. My bride and I are celebrating our honeymoom... more

I have just returned from an 8-day trip to the Ritz Carlton Kapalua, Maui. I have stayed at Ritz Carlton Hotels before, but I must say this one took my breath away. From the moment I first arrived the hospitality was incredible! From the valet, the front desk and the bellman, I felt like a welcomed regular VIP guest, where... more

My husband and I stayed at the Ritz Kapalua for 10 days on our honeymoon in April/May 2008. It was the best vacation we have ever had. I'm reading some of these bad reviews of the hotel, and laughing to myself. Some people can find something wrong with just about everything -- even a five star resort in Maui!! I... more

My family just got back from a week's stay at the Ritz in Kapalua. We actually had three rooms. My husband and I stayed in a one-bedroom ocean-front suite, my son and DIL in a ocean view room, and my daughter, SIL and baby in a residence suite, which has a kitchen. We have stayed at various Four Seasons one-bedroom... more

My daughter and I returned from a 9-day stay here last week. The property is spectacularly beautiful (which I already knew), well-maintained, and the staff was stupendous. I simply can't laud them enough, from the maids to the Terrace breakfast waiters to the valets to the pool staff. All were very friendly, professional, and immediately accommodating. I merely had to... more

I made a hotel reservation online, and received a Confirmed Reservation for an Ocean Front Suite, described as and "Ocean front suite with full view of the Pacific Ocean from the guest room". I then made plane reservations and other plans based on the room's promised availability. When I arrived they told me that, despite my Confirmed Reservation, they had... more

My husband and I recently spent our honeymoon at the Ritz Kapalua and it was perfect! After seeing the other places around I can't imagine staying anywhere else... Customer Service: Everyone here was SO sweet! Maybe it's just laid-back Maui, but all the people were exceptionally attentative in helping us get everything we needed to our exact preference. The consierge... more

A lovely location, beautiful grounds and rooms. Inept service, overpriced and overrated food service and nickel/dime mentality. 1. Grounds/Property. Kapalua is truly beautiful, the whole development is manicured and peaceful unlike the more commercial developments of Kaanapali. 2. Rooms. Fully renovated and up to the standards of a five star property, although the fairly industry standard nonsense of "ocean front",... more

We were grossly disappointed with this hotel, as we had high expectations that such a massive renovation would translate into outstanding facilities and service. Although the rooms are large and comfortable, and the property is home to one of the few swimmable beaches in West Maui, these are but a handful of problems we encountered: 1. The hotel is grossly... more
