Montage Kapalua Bay Resort By Kbm

“Fantastic Visit! A spectacular hotel in a perfect setting.”

My wife and I stayed at the resort from 4/30/26 to 5/6/26. We had a fantastic visit. We booked our trip prior to the management change from Montage to Marriott. They gave us notice of the change about a month before our trip and we decided to go through with it. I’m glad we did! We read some negative reviews from guests who were there early in the transition which concerned us, but we figured things would get straightened out. There is no doubt the resort is running smoothly now. Service was impeccable - the staff extremely professional, attentive and friendly. We gleaned from our conversations with them that most are long tenured. The food at all the restaurants was excellent. The grounds and rooms are absolutely spectacular. Our 3-bedroom unit was condo grade with very high end finishes – full kitchen, washer and dryer, 3.5 baths, 2 master rooms and a room with 2 full beds. There are two pool areas and the amount of pool space relative to the size of the resort (~only 145 rooms) is impressive. Plenty of pool side seating. The spa and fitness facility is also first class. My wife said her massage was one of the best she has ever had. One warning, there is some construction going on. It appears they are repairing exterior stucco. Looks like they have over 2/3 of the buildings done. At times there was some construction noise, but we didn’t find it overly obtrusive. Side note: We visited the Ritz Carlton for cocktails one evening. Although its very nice, we thought the views overall are not as good and the grounds are a notch below. The pool area seemed crowded. It has 400+ rooms for a comparably sized pool area. One off site restaurant recommendation – try Sansei Seafood for excellent sushi!

Our family was blown away with our exceptional experience. With some trepidation after learning the Montage we booked was transitioning to a different hotel brand/management company, and a few not so positive reviews during the transition, we were so pleasantly surprised. The view is unbeatable, the 3 bedroom villa accommodation was clean, comfortable, and honestly, luxurious. The staff was absolutely lovely - super helpful, very kind, and accommodating with all of our requests. The food was delicious and the pool area was really relaxing — it is setup in a way that allows you to have privacy while still being in a central area. The ocean and coastal trail are super convenient too. All in all it was a 5/5 and we will definitely be back. Shout out to Scott at the desk, Erick at the pool, Wade/Mark on the bell & valet staff. The entire staff was truly incredible. Thank you for everything! Highly recommend.
