Wailea

Set along Maui’s southwestern coast, Wailea feels serene, spacious, and distinctly luxurious. Five crescent-shaped beaches line the shore, inviting long mornings of swimming, snorkeling, paddleboarding, or simply settling into the warm sand beneath a palm tree. Wailea Beach, Polo Beach, and Ulua Beach Park are among the area’s best-known shoreline stops, while the coastal walking path makes it easy to wander between beaches, resorts, and sunset viewpoints.
