The Restaurant at The Ritz-Carlton Maui Kapalua

"As a guest at The Ritz-Carlton, Kapalua, you’ll receive free transportation around the larger resort area, which includes the aforementioned golf courses (the Bay and Plantation courses) and marine sanctuaries, along with several nearby restaurants and bars, including Merriman's Kapalua, which serves regional cuisine and striking views from its lanai on the edge of Kapalua Bay; Taverna, a rustic, open-air Italian eatery; and The Wine Palette, a wine bar where you can sip and paint the Maui sunset"

"The Terrace restaurant offers a menu that highlights the island’s local produce and seafood; think quinoa and roasted kula beets or Kona seafood paella"

"One of Maui's most notable resorts, this elegant hillside property features luxurious service, upscale accommodations, a spa, restaurants, and a pool, along with an enhanced Hawaiian sense of place"

"Spa, golf course, a variety of cafés, bars and restaurants, and stunning ocean views complete the picture"

""Putting on the Ritz meets hula" at this "beautiful", "secluded" Maui resort (on the island's "cooler", "breezy" side), whose "exquisite" rooms feature "spectacular" views and a "friendly" staff that's "professional" yet "fun"; though honeymooners and families stay here, many guests are "mature", so the vibe is more "East Coast money" than "beachy flip-flop", and the superb amenities include "gorgeous" pools with cabana rentals, six "wonderful" restaurants, a "well-equipped" spa and "first-class" golf courses – it's pricey, but "you get what you pay for", so "if you've got the dough, go"
