The hotel

Something of a state treasure,  Outrigger Ka'anapali Beach Resort truly captures the spirit of Hawaii, teaching guests the true meaning of ‘Aloha’. Warm and extremely welcoming, you’ll feel like one of the family as soon as you arrive. Premium rooms have recently been refurbished and offer modern retreats with Hawaiian touches, as well as a furnished balcony from which to admire stunning ocean, courtyard or garden views. The courtyard is something of a sanctuary, shaded by Kukui Nut Trees, ever blooming Plumerias and 6-storey palm trees. Kids and adults alike will love the whale-shaped swimming pool as well as taking part in daily cultural classes that are on offer. Engage in Lauhala weaving, Ukulele lessons or Hula lessons before soaking up the evening entertainment at the new beachfront restaurant Huihui - with a tasty tropical cocktail in hand.

The best of this hotel is the staff. Everyone is very friendly and warm hearted. They have a culture center that I believe is unique to the hotel. The beach is stunning, the waves are strong. Food is expensive but thats Maui. Tip: Bring ur Beach chairs and Umbrellas! Chris

We absolutely LOVED our stay at Outriggers Ka'anapali Beach Resort!!!!! We were always greeted with a very friendly "Aloha" from each Staff member. We loved our clean and comfortable room. We enjoyed the gorgeous Beach and Pool daily. Maui Brewing Company Restaurant located on the grounds, was delicious!! We enjoyed our weaving class with Koi! The grounds are GORGEOUS- we watched daily sunsets on the lawn in the comfortable lounge chairs provided. We so appreciated the deeply touching Lei ceremony we were honored to be a part of upon our departure. We will always treasure our lei. Thank you Ho'onui! xo This was our first visit to Hawaii and we didn't want to leave. We will be returning here again. Read less

Loved this hotel. The property was quiet and clean. We had a refurbished room which was immaculate and nicely decorated, an adequate size for our family. We were given an upgrade as it was our anniversary, from partial ocean to ocean view, which was extremely kind of the staff. The pool is pretty small but the beach is amazing, wide, lovely sand, awesome waves, really close to Black Rock which my sons loved jumping off and we all enjoyed snorkeling near. There's a place to rent beach things such as umbrellas and snorkel gear right at the edge of the property. Beautiful nightly sunsets. Whalers Village is a five minute walk away - this hotel is a perfect location! It's understated compared to those all around it and we loved that. The hotel next door was so CROWDED with people everywhere. And other hotels along the strip just seemed a bit too "fancy" for us, a family of 4 with two teen boys ages 17 and 15. The grounds here are lovely, lots of wide open spaces and grass and pretty trees and flowers. So many chairs to sit on. I loved going out in the morning, getting a coffee at the cafe, and sitting in a chair on the edge of the property by the beach. The staff was warm and welcoming, particularly those who worked in the Cultural Center. We took ukelele lessons one day and also participated in a lei ceremony where we learned about the kukui nut, among other things. One of the individuals took particular interest in speaking to us about where we were from and sharing some of her background, it felt like a nice personal touch. We enjoyed breakfast items from the cafe such as breakfast sandwiches and acai bowls. My husband and I opted to skip the buffet as it was $30/pp and didn't have a ton of selection. Our teens did it one day though and they give it a thumbs up. They love all you can eat buffets! We ate dinner at Maui Brewing Company one night and it was really good! Great atmosphere too. We would absolutely return and stay at this hotel, I truly hope we can someday sooner rather than later. We were very sad to leave. Read less

Great location and beutiful easy access beach in front of the hotel. Amazing beachfront room in the 6th floor with the best view towards the sunsets. The room was recently renovated and very clean. Multiple services were available at the beach but with extra charge.
