The first resort built in the high-end Wailea resort complex, the Marriott occupies 22 acres of oceanfront property. Built on a point of land with lava cliffs at the water’s edge, the resort has access to two beautiful, sandy beaches on either side. A tropical motif dominates here, starting in the open-sided, landscaped lobby area and extending to the widely spaced guest rooms and other facilities. In addition to the championship golf courses shared by all the Wailea resorts, the Marriott has five pools, a jogging trail, a putting green, ocean sports, a shopping arcade, and a full-service spa and salon.
