Set on old taro fields and sugar cane grounds, Ka’anapali Resort is a top-rated destination for those seeking an upscale tropical retreat. Ka’anapali Ali’i, in the heart of it, is no exception. This beachfront rental is comprised of spacious one- and two-bedroom condos, ranging from 1500 to 1900 sq ft. Each residence is elegantly furnished and has a fully equipped kitchen opening up to a spacious dining area and comfortable living space. There are two full bathrooms and a full-size washer and dryer available in each suite. The inside temperature can be adjusted to your liking with central air conditioning, and oversized windows maximize natural lighting. Step outside on your own private lanai and take in the sights ranging from calming garden views, to expansive mountain views, to far-reaching ocean views, or unobstructed oceanfront views.

The Ka’anapali Ali’i has 264 exclusive condos spread across four 11-story buildings. As you enter the beachfront resort, you are welcomed by a palm-tree-lined driveway. To your right, a spa and fitness center invites you to rejuvenate and reenergize during your stay. The Ka’anapali Ali’i spa is available for appointments between 10 AM and 5 PM, and personalized massage therapies can be enhanced with hot stones or aromatherapy. The 3000 sq ft fitness center is open from 5 AM to 10 PM and features a variety of equipment, including Matrix cardio machines with individual TVs. The modern fitness center offers views of the West Maui Mountains and the perfectly manicured greens of the Ka’anapali Golf Resort. A yoga-stretching studio is also available, and a variety of fitness classes are offered both in the studio and on the oceanfront lawn for an additional surcharge to the in-house trainer. Pick up a set of racquets and tennis balls between 8 AM and 9 PM, and play a game under the sun on one of the three tennis courts, or join a tennis clinic offered during the week.

Bell service is offered as you pull up to the entrance, and the welcoming reception bids you to hydrate with some fruit-infused water while checking in. Just a few steps away, stock up on a selection of grocery items, logo gear, and more, at the on-site sundry store. 

Vacationing in a suite at the Ka’anapali Ali’i means that you are staying in one of the most luxurious accommodations on Maui. The grounds are nothing short of lavish. Pathways lead you through the immaculate garden surrounding the recently renovated pool area and take you all the way down to the popular Ka’anapali Beachwalk, hugging the award-winning three-mile-long Ka’anapali Beach. Taking center stage, the two-tiered freshwater pool area summons you to cool down under the Maui sun. A separate splash pool is perfect for younger children, and the upper pool offers a tranquil spot for those seeking some quiet time in a serene setting. There are two jacuzzi spas where you can relax, and lounge chairs line the pool, perfect for unwinding after a day at the beach.

If you would rather feel the soft sand between your toes, grab a towel from the pool service desk and head to the beach just a few steps away. Rent a cabana or take advantage of complimentary chairs where you can watch the waves roll in, catamarans sail by, and fun-seekers play in the sun. During the winter months, keep your eyes peeled on the horizon for signs of Maui's seasonal visitors, the humpback whales. A spout, a breach, or a tail slap is not an uncommon sight in these warm, protected waters where they come to breed and nurture their newborns.  

A truly unique feature found at this resort is the expansive lounge and barbecue set-up. Offering shade from the sunny skies, the oversized pavilion with comfortable, outdoor furniture and two flat screen TVs allows you to stay current on recent events or watch your favorite game while you are poolside on this remote Pacific island.  In addition, there is a designated dining area where guests can gather to dine on fresh-off-the-barbecue creations. Make sure to flavor your feast with a selection from the herb garden next to the oceanfront gas grills. While grilling, watch as the sky lights up with the colorful hues of the setting sun and make a toast to another great day in paradise.

You can’t beat the location of this oceanfront resort. Not only is the property hugging a wide, golden beach, but you also have access to a myriad of activities within walking and driving distance. You can jump on a catamaran directly from the beach, choose from snorkel trips leading you to protected snorkel sites, dinner cruises serving island-inspired cuisine, cocktail sunset cruises, or whale watches when in season. During the summer months, take flight with a parasail company or jump on a jet ski for some splashing twists and turns right off the coast. Surfing and stand-up paddleboarding lessons are a staple when in Hawaii, and there is no shortage of board rentals and lessons along the coast. Walk 15 minutes up the beach, and you are at the most western point of Maui, commonly known as “Black Rock”.  Some of the best snorkeling on the island is found here. At sunset, you can witness a nightly cliff dive, a ritual passed down for centuries, and that holds great cultural significance in Hawaiian history.  

Nearby Ka’anapali Golf, with its two 18-hole courses, delivers challenges from seaside to the foothills of the West Maui Mountains. Additional courses are found in Kapalua, just a few minutes' drive further north. While there, seek out secluded beaches, high-end restaurants, and a top-rated zipline course leading you high up into the verdant mountains.

Exclusive shopping and additional dining are conveniently located a mere 5-minute walk from the Ka’anapali Ali’i. Whalers Village has something for every flavor palate and budget. This modern shopping space is home to high-end retailers, oceanfront restaurants, a food court adjacent to a play area with a splash pad and climbing structure, a whale center, and more. Evening entertainment includes family movie nights under the stars. 

It should come as no surprise that these grounds were once the playgrounds for Hawaiian royalty, and here at Maui Resort Rentals, we are delighted to have the opportunity to facilitate your next vacation rental at the distinguished Ka’anapali Ali’i resort.
