Mostly perfect

Loved this place. Almost everything met or exceeded expectations. Friendly staff, beautiful grounds, great room with amazing view (#240 oceanfront corner). We paid the extra $250 direct to the hotel to confirm that specific room which was a great option if you want to guarantee a top floor, etc. saw dolphins and turtles right from our balcony. No resort fee and free parking also great. Lots of included activities. Beach chairs are free, no umbrellas so we bought one at Costco in the way which worked out well. Only a few downsides. The landscaping crew weed cutting and leaf blowing right next to the beach and restaurant one morning from 9-11 was a bummer, but I guess they have to do it sometime. A lawnmower and rake might have been better. We walked all the way down to the other end of the beach to get away from it but could still hear it. I come to the beach to relax, so… also, our first dinner and first breakfast at the Sea House restaurant were both disappointing. But other means there were fine. Excellent Bloody Mary and Mai Tais. Loud HVAC noise on our balcony from the building next door, but again, it had to be somewhere. Wish they relocated it to the parking lot side.would stay again. Very relaxing and gorgeous spot.

This resort was absolutely a dream! We wanted a place to relax & be right near the beach but close to town and they absolutely killed it. It wasn’t too touristy or overcrowded. It had plenty of space all over the resort including the beach where we didn’t feel neck to neck on top of people. They made renting umbrellas for the week easy where we didn’t have to carry them or anything. Staff were always friendly and helpful. I highly recommend staying here! The pictures don’t do the justice! The view is absolutely amazing! We even got a massage by TeTe & Kim there on the resort and it beat my expectations by far! Highly recommended & will be back!

Very clean and grounds are well taken care of. On site dining is a big plus. Laid back atmosphere, not stuffy as some of the ritzy places can be. I don’t think the beach area is private and not extremely large, but we didn’t exactly go to Maui for the beach. Be careful of the beach trail in high tide/high wave conditions. Overall hidden gem.

Napili is a beautiful bay away from the noise and crowds of Kanipali. We stayed in Puna Point 2 which was the quietest part of the resort. Our ocean front one bedroom suite was very clean and nicely furnished. Near the main pool there was a SNACK shop open from 7am -5pm. There was also a restaurant open all day.

Rooms were clean and premises well kempt; however, there is almost no shade for reprieve from the sun--only three old umbrella huts with a few lounge chairs under them--the drinks at the pool were expensive and not drinkable, the restaurant was slow and the service in the same was poor.
