    Came to Fairmont to celebrate our 20th anniversary and had the best time. It was our third time staying here, so we know our way around. Before I get into some pro tips, I want to give a special shoutout to: -Liliana and the management for a wonderful check-in experience and the lovely welcome gifts to celebrate our anniversary. -Kaleo at the adult pool was the epitome of Aloha vibes. He not only took great care of us, but also taught us a bit about local culture, customs, and local foodie spots. This guy is a gem and deserves a promotion. -Barry at the breakfast buffet is the kindest and nicest person. He made sure we had everything we needed and even packed us a cup of pastries for our return flight. Thank you! Everyone working here was exceptionally friendly and beyond nice to us. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said about some of the entitled guests, who treated my new "friends" poorly. A little kindness goes a long way, so please don't be a jerk to these hard-working people. This hotel has probably one of the highest resort fees I've ever seen, but they actually offer a ton of amenities, so make sure to take advantage of the: -Daily activity and fitness classes (yoga, lei making, ukulele, etc.) -Free shuttle around Wailea -Water toys and beachside chairs -Free sunscreen and aftersun care at the pools -Stainless steel water bottles with water stations around the hotel -LeLabo bath products I do have to admit that knowing about all of the benefits is hard, especially when it's your first time here. Scan the QR code that comes with the keys to access all the hotel info or simply request a printed list during check-in. To freshen up on local customs, rules, and expand your Hawaiian vocabulary, check out their in-room magazines. They are packed with information. We can't wait to come back. Aloha!

    We stayed four nights in a pool-side suite which came with a walk-out patio door to a table and four chairs, two lounge chairs (no umbrella), and a nice chair and footstool for reading/relaxing. It looked like our 108 suite plus two others had a ocean view, but the other pool-side suites would have more a view of the pool. The suite's lounge chairs had a cushion that was thinner than the pool-side lounge chairs which was green and quite plush. The suite has two double beds, large bathroom with separate tub and double sink plus a nice laundry basket for dirty towels and a wooden rack for hanging a wet bathing suit. The living area has a large sectional couch, TV, table and chairs for dining, and the coffee/microwave area. Tea kettle, microwave, and refrigerator, and a Nespresso Vertuo coffee maker. The white stainless steel Fairmont Kea Lani water bottles are the nicest water bottles we have ever had - keeping water cold, lift up straw and a white ring for carrying. Water stations in the hotel and by the pool. At the pool is reef-safe suntan and after sun lotion in SPF 30 and 50 that you can use. There are nice white covers for the lounge chairs and plenty of towels. There is a smaller, colder adult lap pool and hot tub (hot) and good size family pools with a slide and less hot hot tub. One of the special things about the Fairmont is the Hawaiian cultural center (Hale Kukuna) in the lobby, with lovely artifacts showcasing some of the culture and books you can read, and the cultural activities: Hula, ukelele, lei making (we made a ti leaf bracelet), and language classes. Ke'ala is a hula dancer who has performed around the world for many years and truly exemplifies the aloha spirit. I loved her hula, lei making, and ukulele classes. One of my favorite memories is the ukulele class where Ke'ala and Kapono were playing along with me and singing a beautiful song about Haleakala. Ho'ohu is another lovely teacher who I enjoyed meeting and talking with in her hula class. Tips: - The outrigger canoe excursion can get booked up, so make reservations with the Concierge even before you arrive. Ours got cancelled due to the waves and unfortunately, it was full for the subsequent days. - Parking is free. I saw a Fairmont van at the other hotel we stayed at, so I think there is a service to take you to another restaurant within a certain distance. - Shops at Wailea (also restaurants and a good gourmet/grab and go or on-demand food market - Island Gourmet Markets (love the Chicken Teriyaki)). Need to drive or see if the van will take you or about a mile away. - You will need to scan the QR code to see the list of activities - cultural, exercise and water activities. Note that the hula and ukulele classes did not show up on the Android/iPhone version, but did show up in the tablet and possibly the computer version. Suggest you go to the Concierge to have them print you a schedule of the activities for when you are there, so you can see all of them. - There is a lovely path connecting the hotels and along the cliff-side with stunning views of the ocean. Suggestions for improvement: - Fix the Android/iPhone version of the activity schedule so that the hula, ukulele classes show up consistently. Suggest ensuring the classes show up under "culture" option and "all" activity option since currently they are not showing up on the phone version. - A paper copy of the week's activities would be appreciated and easier than navigating several screens and clicks on the phone to try and see activities. Mention the walkway next to beach and the Fairmont van transportation would be nice. At the next hotel we stayed at, we got a nice sheet with the week's schedule, daily activities, and special cultural activities along with additional extra cost, special activities. - Consider having some activities in the evening after dinner. I was torn between enjoying the sun/pool/ocean and going to a class. - Add some additional hula and lei/weaving classes for people who are staying a week so different things are learned. We totally loved our stay at the Fairmont and look forward to coming back.

    Never disappoints. The ambiance, the aloha spirit, the restaurants but, the staff... makes the vacation elevated to another level. Shout out to Leslie in Pilina the "bartender" par excellence who never fails to make you feel welcome & serve your every need. It's people like her who make you return every year!!

    We absolutely loved our time at the Fairmont Kea Lani. The front desk staff was very helpful. First, when we checked in we mentioned we had a Costco deal that included valet parking, but they didn't have that in their system. No worries, because the woman checking us in immediately ensured it was on our account so that we didn't get charged for it. Next, we needed to make change for tips with the cash we brought, and the front desk was able to do that without a hiccup. We also loved the cleaning staff, who ensured we had plenty of caramel nespresso (it was SO GOOD) after noticing we kept drinking it all, and constant friendliness every time we passed. Lastly, the pool staff were so helpful. The number of chairs around the pool are very few, and I have some younger kids so we wanted a spot by the pool to ensure safety. The team did a great job ensuring they supported us in finding a spot during days where it was super busy, or checking in on us and saying hi. Overall, this was a great resort for kids. We went during Christmas, and there were events like feeding the koi (probably happens outside of Christmas!), or Santa arriving on an outrigger canoe and then drinks while waiting in line to snap pics with Santa. My kiddos were delighted with a sweet ornament and some Maui Pineapple cookies we received as a holiday treat! The pool and water slide were fun, the beach was perfect for a great beach day. It felt luxurious but not so expensive, which also made the vibes immaculate. We also were able to walk to other resorts easily for a luau (great for group transportation!), and the food at the market was great for small bites for breakfast instead of worrying about an expensive buffet for kiddos. We will definitely be back!

    This property is absolutely stunning. From the gardens to the beachfront, every square inch is cared for. We sincerely enjoyed the split between the adult pool and child-friendly pool areas. There's enough food options at the onsite restaurants to please everyone. Note: restaurants do close early here, so plan accordingly. The location of this property is clutch. Located at the southern end of Wailea, the hotel sits in a secluded and peaceful region. The beachside trail allows for a scenic stroll northbound past other higher-end hotels and eventually near the (small) shopping district. This is truly the type of resort that accommodates travelers that want to stay on property and relax. I can't wait to come back!

    I named him Charlie. He was so nice and they don't bite you if you feed them.  Pang's Poke Bowl* **

    Kaylee (idk how to spell cause her name rage broke or something) was amazing. Isaiah was so sweet and helpful and I wish I caught the name of the gentleman that took us to our cabana (he told us he had recently gone on a carnival cruise). We are looking into coming back, we only stopped in for a day pass from our cruise. This was our best stop on the 16 day trip. Top notch service. I love the chickens, grew up near farms in ALABAMA and I love animals.

    For a $1000+ a night resort, I had extremely high expectations. Fairmont lives up to those expectations. From the absolutely beautiful grounds, spacious room interiors, tasteful architecture, attentive staff, high tech touches in the room, to the finely selected toiletries in the bathrooms. Oh and a great gym to top it off. There didn't seem to be anything that was unthought of while creating this palace. A definite 5 star experience.

    Ask the Community - Fairmont Kea Lani

    Will Fairmont Kea Lani undergo some renovations from March to July?? If so, what are being renovated? I want to make sure our stay is not impacted much, if/when we do decide to book ii?

    We were there in August and the renovation going on was substantial. You can hear drilling at the pools. You may want to call them and see where they are now- it was loud.

    Is the spa fully operable, i.e showers, hydrotherapy pools, etc.?

    Speaking for when I went in late May, all spa facilities were available for use

    Are people able to use the pool and restaurants who are not guests of the hotel?

    Construction question - To those who have stayed there very recently, did you notice any impact on your stay from the construction? For example, could you hear it from the pools? Thanks!!

    I was there 2 weeks ago and didn't notice any construction noise at the pool or beach.

    Planning on vacationing here with the family our kids are four and two. Does this hotel have a fun kids pool area and/or kids activities?

    Yes! Kiddie pool is excellent! Our son is 4 and we spent all day, every day at the pool! You'll love it!!

    Do these rooms have a fridge or mini fridge? Planning on visiting with the family and my boys are 4&2...is it family friendly? Kids activities and whatnot?

    Yes, they have mini fridges in each room and a microwave. There is a kiddy pool that's not even calf deep that was perfect for my kid who had just turned 3 and the regular pool was perfect for my 7 year old. He loved the water slide and there were… Read more

    Thanks for this review Chandra! Is there 2 adult pools. I kept reading there was no swim up bar at the adult pool? So wondering is there are 2? Thanks!

    There is 1 adult pool. There are two other pools for all ages, as well as one "kiddy" pool. The pool with the swim up bar is for all ages!

When we went to the adult pool we were told by one employee that we needed to be on a waitlist. After 3 hours when we finally got notified that it was our turn and went back we noticed other guests just literally went and grabbed empty benches and staffs were just setting the benches up for them(no, they didn't even know there was a waitlist)... Our canoe experience at the last day of our stay got canceled due to high wind and the concierge never notified us etc. Many employees gave me the vibe that they don't really care. They just gave me fake smiles and robotic responses. Maybe Amond would take better care of us...if he is still alive... The view was very amazing. We even spotted whales many times.

While we did not expect anything extravagant, many hotels and restaurants typically offer a small gesture such as a dessert, cake, or card for special occasions. We spent approximately $1,500 dining at the resort during our celebration, yet there was still no additional acknowledgment. For a luxury resort known for its hospitality, we expected a more personalized experience. Overall, the property is beautiful, but the lack of attention to our special occasion left us disappointed. Most likely they will write back only to apologize and nothing else.

Apparently it used to be a Japanese club called the Diamond, but was converted to a hotel after seeing the club die out. I booked this hotel for a variety of reasons. The biggest reason being that this is an adults only hotel. Upon doing my research of Maui, I figured that the south west side was probably going to be better for calmer waters and a more tranquil place for a relaxing vacation with my wife who is expecting. I am glad I chose Hotel Wailea rather than other hotels around the area including Grand Wailea or Four Seasons. Another reason is that I was able to book directly on their website and save some money on their insider rate (nonrefundable). I always try to book directly so that it benefits the hotel. It also benefits me because I was able to save 30% on the rate and got a few bonus perks. It was a little bit of a gamble due to the extreme weather that they had prior to coming, but luckily everything worked out and the weather was beautiful during my stay. Being a smaller hotel, I noticed more attention to detail and much better service than any other hotels that I have stayed at in the past. Upon coming to the hotel with my rental car, the valet service greeted us and took care of all our bags and showed us to the check in area. We were greeted with a flower lei for my wife and a kukui nut lei for me. The check in process took a few minutes to explain the layout of the hotel and details. We got a free valet parking since we stayed 5 days at the hotel and also got a $100 dining credit. I am glad we got the valet parking since I read that the parking spots can be tight and distant from everything. The valet took us to our stay with a golf cart loaded with our luggage. Upon entering our suite, there was a welcome gift including some chocolates and alcohol free champagne. The suite is filled with everything you need. They have a fridge stocked with soft drinks and sparkling water that is all complimentary. They also have bottles of water and you can request more. You are able to take beach chairs, umbrellas, parasol and towels to the beach. They have shuttle rides that can take you to nearby area up to a certain distance. They will also pick you up if you call them. The shower and bath had the best water pressure I've seen anywhere. The bathtub was huge and it actually filled relatively quickly. They have a TV in the bedroom and in the lounge area. The outdoor patio provided a really nice view towards the ocean, garden and sky. I stayed very close to the gym which was a huge plus. I was able to use it every morning and was the only one there every morning prior to sunrise. Working out pre-sunrise to sunrise in a open door setting was a great experience. They have some unique free weights that mimics a natural wood look. There is a row machine, a coupe of treadmills, elliptical and peloton for cardio. Other basic machines that uses a pulley and weight system are available. They have several yoga mats as well for any floor exercises. The pool area seemed busy during the day so I went after sunset mostly. The water is heated so it is very comfortable. There is a beautiful sunset view from the restaurant or from the birdcage. Depending on who you ask and what circumstances they have, it could vary what expensive is, but it is certainly not cheap or affordable here. You are paying for more than just a view here. The entire experience is curated for you. The staff here does a phenomenal job at keeping this property well-maintained and running. The restaurant and hotel has a premium price, but for a premium experience. There are other experiences here that you can book on their website or contacting the front desk. The front desk, housekeeping and valet were all so easy to contact with the phone in the room. We tried the in room dining once and although it took some time, it was a nice experience. Known for its tranquil adults-only atmosphere, attentive service, and luxurious amenities, Hotel Wailea offers a beautifully curated and premium Hawaiian getaway that is well worth the high price tag.

    The service makes this place shine, not that there is a dull spot on premise. It's not a full board…read moreResort, no gift shop and no sundries boutique. There is no social hotel bar. It's not for young families as no kids permitted, and not for sedentary seniors, steps walks and trails abound. What Hotel Wailea has is sublime serenity, impeccable hospitality and a way to exceed expectations at every turn. Our first night dinner was incredible from service, presentation, with use of local ingredients. Our room was a mini suite, quiet and comfortable without pretense. Initially I was concerned for lack of seats, poolside or equipment in the gym but there was never a shortage of simply anything. No need to reserve a prime seat at the pool, or get to the gym early, the minimum

    Got there kinda late at night because we stopped and ate dinner before we checked in . We must have…read morebeen lucky because they upgraded us to a suite not having any rooms available that we had reserved. This is great customer service from a hotel!! Our room had a couch, dining table, bath and a half and a tub shower combo and a fire pit outside!! Had the Costco package and breakfast was included, it was a buffet style and just fine for starting us out in the morning. The resort had lots of pools and was in between two beaches, so we were always hanging out at either a beach or pool. There are a lot of stairs here. We like that we could go down to the one beach and there were beach chairs provided there from the hotel, I you got there early enough. We never ate on property except for breakfast so we can't comment on the other restaurants. Want to visit again sometime. PS-We saw the biggest, fastest spider on our patio at night, decided to only go out there during the day after that.

    Extremely disappointed…read more While the grounds and landscaping at the resort are absolutely beautiful and well-maintained, our overall experience has unfortunately fallen far short of expectations. Upon arrival, it took over two hours for bell service to deliver our luggage to our room. Once we finally settled in, we discovered the room had not been properly cleaned. There were hairs and sand throughout the bathroom and room, and our children even found toys left behind from previous guests. To make matters worse, the room phone was broken, making it difficult to contact hotel staff when assistance was needed. My husband is a Titanium Elite Marriott Bonvoy member, and we have generally come to expect a higher level of service and attention to detail when staying at Marriott properties. Unfortunately, there was no recognition of his status during our stay, and the overall experience did not reflect the level of hospitality we have received at other Marriott resorts. After bringing our concerns to management's attention, the hotel did remove the upgrade charge for our first night, which we appreciated. However, the issues have continued throughout our stay. We are currently on day four of our five-night stay, and these problems have not been isolated incidents. Most recently, despite being out of the room for the entire day, housekeeping again failed to service our room. For the price point and reputation of this resort, we expected a much higher standard of cleanliness, service, and attention to detail. The property itself is stunning, and the grounds are truly one of the resort's strongest features, but the repeated service failures throughout our stay have significantly impacted what should have been a relaxing family vacation. While we appreciate the effort made to address some of our concerns, we hope management takes a closer look at the consistency of housekeeping, room readiness, and guest service so future guests have an experience that better reflects the Marriott brand.

    We do not recommend staying at this hotel for the following reasons;…read more 1). Front desk staff had an awful attitude when we asked questions and /or say hello, good morning etc. SPECIALLY THE TALL WOMAN WITH LONG HAIR (a local) you could tell she hated every guest. Everyone who's not from the island. We had no other choice lady! our company sent us there. we went there to work not to stay there forever. Also the other local women working in the front desk were very Apathetic/rude. In contrast the other staff who weren't locals were very polite and welcoming. 2). Rooms. The carpet is extremely filthy (wear flip flops otherwise your feet will be pitch black from the dirt ) our room was cleaned very late in the afternoon almost every day. Some days it was cleaned very well in the morning but when it was done in the afternoon, it wasn't clean well. No kitchen counters were cleaned, rug was not vacuumed and the shower had dirt on it, PUBIC HAIR! And on the sink counter as well. Very gross. Also the bed wasn't even made properly. 3). Noise! Walls are very thin. We could hear people screaming, laughing, slamming doors you name it! The good: The staff in the restaurant area were very lovely. The breakfast buffet was pretty good To the ladies or managers or whoever is putting a blind eye on how front desk staff is treating guests, you don't have the right to be disrespectful. If you can't stand/tolerate people who's not from your community, don't work on hospitality. Don't work for the industry that's bringing /welcoming people from all over the world. There's more to learn and see beyond your island. We come from a country/community that respects other people, cultures and will welcome you with open arms and respect. Don't hate us. Instead, focus your energy towards organizing and fighting the rich and powerful who are the real villains for taking away your land.

    We stayed here right after the Lahaina fires so the hotel was fairly empty. The staff could not…read morehave been more welcoming and gracious. I initially planned on canceling our trip, but the hotel asked that we still come since they needed the business. I just didn't want to be in the way, but Lahaina is far away so we had no impact. It's a beautiful, huge resort with a great deal of amenities to include outdoor grills, basketball court, tennis courts, pool, etc. The onsite bar and restaurant is also very nice. It's in a great location near the center of Wailea and close to Kihei so it makes for easy travel. Love our stay here.
