Hotels with swim-up pool bars

Does anyone have suggestions for Hotels on the Big Island or Maui with fun pools? Looking for ones with swim-up pool bars.

Thanks

The Hyatt on Maui.

I enjoyed it...until I realized that some of the heavy drinkers never seemed to get out of the pool during the day.

Yuck!

Grand Wailea, Maui. Unparalleled pools and a great swim up and sit bar in a cave. There's even a couple of tables in there. Enjoyed many a lava flow and smoothie in there.

Another vote for Grand Wailea pool, Maui.
Pool also utilizes a unique water powered elevator.

I stayed at a hotel in Mexico that had a swim-up bar. It got real scary when people would sit there all day drinking beer and NEVER get out of the pool. Yuk doesn't even begin to describe it.

I agree with the other posters who mentioned the fact that some people would sit drinking at the swim-up pool bar for HOURS and never get up.

We also stayed at a hotel in Mexico where we noticed this happening. (I was in a lounger by the pool ALL day.)

Having seen this for myself, you won't find me at a hotel pool with a swim-up bar again. amp;
