"Loved the pool layout and the gorgeous ocean view. Not noisy, very minimal music played at the pool which was nice! The snorkeling on site is better than Molokini crater. The only slight downside is that the beach is a bit small and there were limited restaurants on site but that is only a tiny negative. Loved this resort and would come back."

"Having never visited Hawaii, we kinda booked this place on a whim. It's a bit removed from the rest of the touristy hotspots, which was nice. The beach was close and quiet, the staff were amazing, the views of the ocean from the lobby/main dining area was beautiful. They have 5 pools, so you never feel like it's crowded. We had a great time. Will definitely come back here when we visit Maui again."
