Sand, Sun, Serenity & Understanding of why Hawaii is so special.
Addie A on Dec 08, 2024
It’s not often that I am surprised by a hotel. But this one surprised me in a multitude of ways. 1) Location!!! Not only are you literally steps from the sand, but also just a short walk to one of the best if not the best snorkeling on the island. 2) The property! The trees on the property provide such a relaxing atmosphere. With shade and hammocks, the sounds of the birds and the waves, and you have the perfect place to unwind. 3) The rooms! We were in the recently renovated wing with its homage to the history of Hawaii and the importance of its connection to the people and its culture. Little touches from custom made art work to the patterns in the carpet, you feel so at home. I also got a sneak peak at their newest rooms (stay tuned) that have more of a sea vibe with shades of blues and teal. Absolutely gorgeous, with so many little touches that say “We are Maui” 4) The Culture Center! I have saved the best for last. While for many Hawaii has become the land of sand and sun, but to the people of Hawaii it is their home, and they have welcomed us to it. The culture center brings with it a new awareness of what Ohana really means. This is one of those areas unique to this property and the reason people come back time after time after time. Let the Outrigger Ka’anapali Beach family welcome you into their home.
Outrigger - you can do better!

Our stay here was mixed – mostly on the negative side to be honest. I did make the mistake of purchasing our stay on a third party site to save some money so I was not entirely clear on the room I was getting but the accommodation was definitely basic at best and below standard at worst. Since we stayed with Outrigger on another of their properties we were expecting the same quality at this property. Sadly we found a building that had not been renovated since the 70’s (“classic Hawaiian” is what the desk clerk called it) and a facility that had some rules and regulations that made it less welcoming for guests. Let’s start with the room in the Aquili wing. This is a 3 story building with no elevator and hallways that have stained carpet and peeling wallpaper. Dragging 2 suitcases and 2 carry ons up those stairs to our room on the 3rd floor was no picnic! The room at first glance looked fine if dated but smelled musty. The bathroom – specifically the shower and toilet area – was cringe worthy. Missing grout, sloppy patch up job on the shower door and mold reminded me of Motel 6. I almost asked to be moved but was not confident that another room in this building would be any better. Another concern- the door to our building was propped open 24/7. Since there is nothing restricting access to the property from the beach that is definitely a safety concern, Now to the pool management. All guests are allowed 1 towel and 1 towel ONLY for the entire duration of their stay. How do they track this? They give you a Towel Card when you check in. You have to trade it for a towel. You can exchange your towel for a fresh one when you want but you can never have more than one. If you are traveling with small children you might want to keep this in mind. Another note – none of the outdoor showers work so you will be tracking sand back into your room. They also took my lounge chair from me that I was using on the beach at 4:45 PM because the beach shack was closing for the day. I had to find somewhere else to sit to enjoy the beach and the sunset. Breakfast Buffet was good but at $30 per person definitely not worth the $$. Stop at one of the local places nearby for breakfast and save some money. There were some positives: you are in Maui HI which is one of the most beautiful places on earth! The staff was friendly and the grounds crew kept the condition of the property pristine. They were out there every day raking up leaves and cleaning up the grounds. I can’t speak to the condition of the other rooms on the property but if you get assigned to this building, know what you are getting! I would recommend the Outrigger Eldorado down the road and skip this place altogether.
