Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa Review

Fantasy landscaping with splashing waterfalls, swim-through grottoes, a lagoonlike swimming pool, and a 130-foot waterslide "wow" guests of all ages at this bustling Kaanapali resort; stroll through the lobby past museum-quality art, brilliant parrots, and South African penguins (as we said, this is not reality). The Hyatt's architecture is not necessarily Hawaiian, but it is photogenic, with cultural displays and tropical landscaping. The grounds are the big deal as rooms are nothing too special, although each has a little sitting area and lanai. At the southern end of Kaanapali Beach, this resort is in the midst of the action. Also on the premises are Spa Moana, an oceanfront, full-service facility, and the Japengo restaurant, which presents Pacific Rim cuisine in an outdoor setting. There are nightly luau shows, and the rooftop Astronomy Tour of the Stars, where guests gaze at the heavens through digital telescopes, is a popular and often thrilling activity offered at no other Maui resort.

    My husband and I spent our honeymoon at the Hyatt and for our 1st trip to Hawaii it was all and more than I expected. It was absolutely beautiful. I would recomend the Hyatt to anyone. If you go you need to go to the Drums of the Pacific Luau. The only downfall is parking. But I always had a spot.
