Looking for a beach resort in Hawaii that has a great beach for swimming, snorkeling, nice sand. But must be a 4 or 5 star resort that’s upscale. What are the best?
Hey Steve you ask good question, here my moto, nice room, hot sun, warm water, cold drink, yeah? If you neva been to Kaanapali, you need to consider it, or Kapalua, they both on west side Maui, both got exact what you want, my personal fav is two hotel there, Sheraton at Black Rock, and Hyatt Regency, Kaanapali. Either these gonna give you great hotel, great food, Hyatt maybe little betta on food, great Italian place downstairs, great beach, although Sheraton have mobetta beach, and snorkel, all gonna haave great sand, ok? Course, you want best of best, go to Kapalua, stay at Ritz-Carlton, you gonna have best of best on west side Maui, ok?
Also not to forget Wailea side of island, you got two great hotel, side by side, Four Seasons, and Grand Wailea, both first class, 4 or 5 stars, and have great pool, but beach not quite as good as Kaanapali, but voth very exclusive, and you not go wrong. Remeber, what we say in Hawaiian, Maui no ka oi", which mean loose translate, "Maui the Best", so my opinion you can’t go wrong with any of these resorts, ok?
Of course otha island have great resort, beach, snorkel, and lotta great food, like the Hilton in Kona, the Aston Beach tower, Waikiki, it a 2 bedroom condo, heart of Waikiki, request penthouse, you cannot believe how nice, yeah, but you got crowd in Waikiki to deal with, also great place to stay Lanai, very private, Four Season at Manele Bay, super nice resort, but not much otha things to do round the hotel, less you like to tour island, drive on beach with jeep, and swim in secluded beaches, which I kinda like, ok?
So good luck to you, and thanks for come to Hawaii, Peace and aloha to you.
