Grand Wailea, A Waldorf Astoria Resort



The Grand Wailea is the very definition of grand as it sits on a 40 acres of oceanfront land right on Wailea Beach. The ultra high end city of Wailea in Maui is about as good as it gets so the Grand Wailea fits in perfectly here.

The Pool
You can easily spend days here and never leave the hotel because it is such a big property with plenty of on-site restaurants, Wailea Beach right outside, and what is easily the best pool area of any hotel in Hawaii. Even Disney's new Aulani can't top the Grand Wailea's pool area!

The pool area is really a water park with many different connected pools. There is an adults only if you want to relax a bit, but you'll likely spend most of your time at the Wailea Canyon Activity Pool. The Wailea Canyon is made up of 9 pools that are all at different elevations and connected to each other via short slides, a river rapids section, a white water slide, and a lazy river. There are waterfalls, a swim up bar, cabanas, a sand bottom area, rope swing to jump from, and much more.

Kids and adults alike can spend hours and hours just swimming through the pools and working their way from top to bottom over and over again. There are also a few really tall water slides to enjoy as well.
