Grand Wailea, A Waldorf Astoria Resort
Hawaiian art, a monumental spa, and Wailea Beach in all its glory.
An exceptional
escape
Why choose this journey
For a stay where the resort becomes a destination in its own right. Grand Wailea works particularly well for families seeking spectacular days without leaving the hotel, while offering couples Napua, Kilolani Spa, Nobu, and more peaceful spaces. It is one of Wailea's most comprehensive addresses, focused more on experience and animation than on minimalist luxury.
Grand Wailea occupies one of the most sought-after locations on Maui’s south coast, with direct access to Wailea Beach and vast tropical gardens descending toward the Pacific. The monumental architecture, water features, and ocean vistas create an immediately spectacular resort experience, while providing easy access to Wailea’s other premier addresses and boutiques.
The recently redesigned accommodations embrace a contemporary aesthetic inspired by the Hawaiian landscape and all feature a lanai. For a more exclusive experience, Napua functions as a resort-within-a-resort with private spaces, a dedicated concierge, and daily culinary presentations, while the Ho‘olei villas cater to families and groups seeking greater independence.
One of Grand Wailea’s signatures remains the spectacular Wailea Canyon Activity Pool, a multi-level aquatic complex connected by a river and notably famous for its astonishing water elevator. In contrast, Kilolani Spa is now the largest wellness center in Hawaii, entirely redesigned around lunar cycles and Hawaiian traditions.
The dining experience has taken on a new dimension with Nobu Grand Wailea, designed by the Rockwell Group and open to the Pacific. Meanwhile, Humuhumunukunukuāpuaʻa retains its iconic setting above a lagoon, and the hotel houses the most significant private art collection of any resort in Hawaii, including a remarkable ensemble of works by Fernando Botero.
