4.5
"A "gorgeous", "upscale" oceanfront condo/resort near Lahaina, this "family-oriented" property (with kids' club and pirate-ship pool) offers "easy access" to the beach and "great" snorkeling."
Gayot
"Here the best villas feature unforgettable ocean views of neighboring Lanai and Molokai --- and then there are those glorious Maui sunsets from the spacious lanais."
Travel + Leisure
"For a sprawling resort, the Westin Ka’anapali manages to exude calm...Ka’anapali’s location adds to the serenity: It's a few yards from a blissfully underused stretch of one the best beaches in Hawaii."
