I have visited Ka'anapali Beach in late June 2009. The sand was so soft against my feet (although I would highly recommend to wear flip flops when the sun is at its highest of the day.. your feet will feel a burn) and a brillant golden color. The water was so clear, with a glistening royal blue, turquoise color; a... more

I'm from Oahu so I know my beaches. Kaanapali is pretty up there. It's got a nice view (i.e. other islands in the distance) and the sand is soft. It does get crowded though, being so close to all those hotels. more

We were there in February and absolutely loved this beach. The sand was soft and the view of Molokai and Lanai was amazing. We relaxed on the sand for a week and were able to see whales breaching every day. One downside is that the sun sets behind Lanai so if you are looking for that green flash you are... more

The kaanapali beach hotel is a very shabby and ugly looking hotel! the hallways were the most unpleasant i`ve ever seen! the breakfast was expensive and very very bad! this hotel is not worth three stars! avoid this hotel in maui becaue there are a lot nicer hotels for the same price! more

Ka'anapali has one of the best sunsets of any beach I've ever been to. You got 2 islands in the background and on the right evening the clouds display every color of the spectrum. The sand is slightly grainy but comfortable. Waves tend to be a calm here and it sometimes gets a bit windy but overall this is a... more

I loved this beach! This beach has it all. Beautiful sand and surf, great snorkeling by the black rock, yummy restaurants, and even fun shopping. My family stayed in a condo near Napili, which is a decent beach, but we enjoyed Ka'anapali Beach so much that we came back several times. If you come early you can find beach only... more

My parents moved to Maui about 6 months ago, and on a recent trip, they took me to one of their favorite beaches - Ka'anapali. This beach quickly became one of my all-time favorite spots! The beach itself is beautiful - the sand is very smooth, it is somewhat busy, but certainly not overly crowded - plenty of room for... more

I had much higher expectations for this hotel. When I made reservations, I did notice that the price was a bit lower than for the other resorts - and I should have known that there was a reason for that... Basically, the main problem is that the property is old and in serious need of a renovation. To the hotels... more

After a day of traveling to Maui we wanted to start our second day of vacation at the Beach! We headed down the street from our hotel to Ka'anapali Beach. We had some trouble finding a place to park and ended up going to the far end of the beach. We found a spot and settled in for some sun... more
