    "The grounds are immaculate." — source Expedia

  • Service: Rating of 4.7 out of 5

    "The bell staff, front desk, room service and operators are exceptionally courteous, although I'd downgrade their cheerfulness for nicer rooms, quiter rooms, and fewer snobs." — source Travelocity

    "Quite different with 3 kids later, but the new kid's pool and area were a great addition since our last visit." — source Travelocity

    "the rooms were wonderful." — source Expedia

    "Now, we loved the room accomodations, the onsite little store, the housekeeping, the shower, our residential kitchen, but maybe we should have foregone the star rating here for oceanfront accessibility and shuttles to Lahaina at another resort." — source Travelocity

    "The Ritz Carlton in Kapalua offers club level dining throughout the day with 5 star selections and presentations that made us look forward to our next visit to the dining room." — source Travelocity

    "The rooms are very nice with all the updated comforts you would expect and some I didn't such as a port by the TV to plug in everything under the sun." — source Travelocity
