Hyatt Regency Maui Resort & Spa is the most convenient Ka'anapali Beach Maui HI hotel you'll find here on the Valley Isle. Located in West Maui in Lahaina, the island's largest city, our Maui Hawaii luxury hotel is convenient to both of Maui's major airports and offers easy access to Maui's mountain roads to beautiful Hana and other hidden places of unspoiled Hawaiian beauty. Hawaii itself is conveniently located near the center of the Pacific Ocean and is the southernmost U.S. state. Alaska holds all the other geographic records; however, our weather is much nicer.

Tourist attraction in Maui
Hawaii Visitors and Convention Bureau
Central Maui Area
Iao Valley State Park
|
Towering emerald peaks guard the lush valley floor of Iao Valley State Park. Located in Central Maui just west of Wailuku, this peaceful 4,000-acre, 10-mile long park is home to one of Maui's most recognizable landmarks, the 1,200-foot Iao Needle. This iconic green-mantled rock outcropping overlooks Iao stream and is an ideal attraction for easy hiking and sightseeing. |
West Maui Area
Kaanapali Beach
|
With three miles of white sand and crystal clear water, it’s no wonder why Kaanapali Beach was once named America’s Best Beach. Kaanapali was Hawaii’s first planned resort and has become a model for resorts around the globe. One of Kaanapali Beach’s most famous attractions is the daily cliff diving ceremony off of the beach’s northernmost cliffs known as Puu Kekaa, or Black Rock. |
Lahaina
|
Lahaina is a historic town that has been transformed into a Maui hot spot with dozens of art galleries and a variety of unique shops and restaurants. |
South Maui Area
Molokini
|
Molokini is a small, crescent moon-shaped island that is a State Marine Life and Bird Conservation District. Tours are available from nearby Maalaea Harbor and Lahaina. Early morning is the best time of day to explore this pristine reserve, and whale watching is an added bonus during the winter months. If you're a scuba or snorkeling enthusiast, a visit to Molokini is a Maui must. |
Upcountry Maui Area
Haleakala National Park
|
Haleakala National Park is home to Maui's highest peak. Rising 10,023 feet above sea level, Haleakala's graceful slopes can be seen from just about any point on the island. Haleakala means "house of the sun" in Hawaiian, and legend has it that the demigod Maui lassoed the sun from its journey across the sky as he stood on the volcano’s summit, slowing its descent to make the day last even longer. |
Kula
|
Located in the central part of the island, Kula is also at the center of its culinary resurgence, with much of the exotic produce served at Maui’s best Hawaii Regional Cuisine restaurants grown right here in the rich, volcanic soil. The fertile fields of Kula are an ideal place to stir up your appetite by taking a farm tour. Pick a Maui onion at Oo Farm, smell the sweet lavender and marvel at the stunning views at the Alii Kula Lavender Farm or see the protea at the Shim Coffee and Protea Farm Tour. |
East Maui Area
Hana
|
Along Maui's rugged eastern coastline is the peaceful town of Hana, considered one of the last unspoiled Hawaiian frontiers. The Hana Highway (HI-360) has 600 curves and 54 bridges. The road leads you through flourishing rainforests, flowing waterfalls, plunging pools and dramatic seascapes. There are plenty of opportunities to stop and enjoy the lovely views, so get an early start and take your time on your drive. |
