Hotels near Kapalua - JHM, Kapalua

Everything handy- restaurants, groceries, coffee place. We liked the beaches nearby and we love Lahaina Front Street which is a short drive. Quiet at night and safe. A bit dark to walk around at night but that is Hawaii.

The area is a bit away from the swimming beaches, shopping and dining, but it is very convenient location for driving to these areas, as well as other areas in Maui. There is a local bus service that runs until about 8:30 PM, so that is also handy. Very quiet area in the evenings so you can get a good nights sleep.

Loved Kapalua and would stay there again. Quiet area at the Ridge and very relaxing and not touristy like Kaanapali and Lahaina. Great location to nice beaches north of Kapalua and plenty of snorkeling time. Highly recommend Slaughterhouse Beach and Napili Bay for turtles, snorkeling. The historic Honolua Store in Kapalua is a must see for sundries, souvenirs and sandwiches. Oh and don't forget the Dole whip machine near the deli. Great coffee shop on H-30 called Hawaiian Village Coffee.

The town happens to be located on the serene side of Maui. Waves 2-4 foot. Beginner surfing. Extremely clear waters to snorkel. Shops and food abound, golf and luxury nearby. For the vacation goer who likes people.

Kahana was a convenient location for West Maui activities. The Napili Market had exceptionally higher prices for their products than other markets. Simple bread crumbs for pork chops riveled nearly the same price as three pork chops. Products at the Ritz Carlton Market down the street were more reasonably priced.

Kapalua, the place itself, was beautiful. The resort was beautiful. The community center office’s staff needs more training. They were rude, not familiar with their work, seem to be not care about their customers. They care more about what are not their business and not their responsibility than helping their customers.
