Why Kaanapali Beach Hotel is the perfect Hawaiian holiday destination
Say hello to Hawaii and get to know Kaanapali – the tropical beach resort on the island of Maui your clients have been dreaming of
A three-mile stretch of tropical beach paradise on the island of Maui, Kaanapali is one of Hawaii’s most special holiday destinations. Offering the wide-open space, high standards of cleanliness and safety reassurance now required by many holidaymakers, Kaanapali is a place where couples, families and friends alike can kick back with peace of mind beside the Pacific Ocean.
The destination is home to 13 accommodation options but visitors will do well to choose to stay at Kaanapali Beach Hotel, which is known as “Hawaii’s most Hawaiian hotel” because of its connection to the island’s culture. Guests are given the opportunity to take part in daily, free cultural activities such as learning to play the ukulele, to speak Hawaiian phrases and to make traditional lei, or garlands, as well as a cultural walk to learn about Maui’s native plants. Other activities at the beachfront hotel include snorkelling, stand-up paddle boarding and canoeing.
Offering 418 rooms – many of which are newly renovated – and 14 suites, the resort’s best views can be seen from its Premium Oceanfront King rooms, which cost from around £330 per night.
TRULY HAWAIIAN
Kaanapali Beach Hotel has also recently added a new restaurant, Huihui. The alfresco eatery, which is lined with palm trees, is open daily for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and has a menu derived from traditional Hawaiian fare. Integrating these traditions with modern flavours and locally sourced produce, it serves up fresh seafood and meats cooked with Hawaiian methods in mind. Of course there are handcrafted Hawaiian cocktails and incredible island views on hand to enhance the dining experience – for an especially spectacular evening suggest guests take a seat at sunset.
Showcasing true Hawaiian hospitality, Kaanapali Beach Hotel staff members are happy to help guests have an excellent holiday experience off-site as well as on-site. The resort recommends a range of excursions including a visit to Maui’s dormant volcanic crater, Haleakala; a 50-mile road trip passing bamboo forests, waterfalls and a black sand beach; guided hiking in the mountains; and tastings of local tipples at Maui’s historic wine estate.
There’s also a don’t-miss opportunity to attend a traditional Hawaiian Lu aus – guests will spend an evening feasting on kalua pork or hulihuli chicken and enjoying the music, dancing and storytelling aligned with Hawaiian and Polynesian culture.
At Kaanapali Beach Hotel nothing is too much trouble. Guests will return home having had a true taste of Hawaii that’ll leave them longing for more.
