The Ritz Carlton Kapalua

Set on a secluded beach, this resort is surrounded by 50 acres of tree-covered hillsides near the northwest tip of Maui. Picture-perfect views feature neighboring Molokai. "World-class everything" includes golf courses, croquet, a three-tiered terrace, pool, cove-like beach, health spa, tennis center, and a must-see Polynesian show with luau. Spacious rooms offer furnished patios or balconies and marble bathrooms with tubs and shower stalls. Mattresses are ultra-thick, and all accommodations have CD players.

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 Ritz Kids Program provides a variety of daily activities for children ages 5–12, and 3- and 4-year-olds are accepted if accompanied by an adult. The program alternates nature exploration, athletics, water-based fun, island adventures, beach activities, Hawaiian games and entertainment, and arts and crafts. Half-day, full-day, and night programs are available.

The 548 extra-spacious rooms reflect the hotel's impeccable taste and attention to detail: pale, cream-and-gray furniture; soft coral-and-green walls, carpets, and bedspreads; ultra-thick mattresses; terry robes and slippers; CD player; honor bar; lounge chair and footstool; and large marble-topped desk. Behind floral drapes is a view lanai (patio or balcony) with furniture. The cream-and-gray marble bath features a roomy stall shower, separate tub, double vanities, scale, and telephone.

Golf alone makes Kapalua famous. The Ritz-Carlton provides its own 9-hole putting course and three award-winning, championship 18-hole courses that make Kapalua an international golfing destination. Nestled between the verdant West Maui Mountains and the blue Pacific, the three courses provide spectacular views. In addition, the Kapalua Golf Academy is located in the area. Also, situated between the hotel and the sea is the nearby Kapalua Village Tennis Center.

The resort has its own professional croquet lawn. It provides a map to some 7 miles of walking/jogging trails. Baby joggers are available for rent at a beach-activity center. Mountain bikes, boogie boards, snorkel sets, and scuba gear are also available for rent there, and scuba-diving lessons and excursions can be booked as well as kayaking/snorkeling tours. Fitness classes, including power walks, yoga, pilates, pool aerobics, and hula occur daily at the resort, and many are complimentary.
