Four Seasons Resort Maui At Wailea

“5 star service - FS Lanai next!”

Treated like a queen as always

“Whales galore!”

What an amazing trip to FS Maui! The resort is gorgeous and the beach is now one of my favorite beaches. We loved the complimentary outrigger excursion. We saw a mom, dad, and baby whale.

What an amazing trip to FS Maui! The resort is gorgeous and the beach is now one of my favorite beaches. We loved the complimentary outrigger excursion. We saw a mom, dad, and baby whale. They were breaching and it was one of the most magical experiences of my life! We were there in mid-February. There is a path that takes you along the shoreline past other resorts. It's beautiful to walk at sunset and we saw a lot of whales in the distance. Beach: The ocean water is so clear and the temperature was great. We also did paddle-boarding and kayaking. The resort offers a complimentary yoga class in the morning which was serene. Pools: They were so busy, I actually didn't spend any time at them. I tried the adult pool twice but there was a waitlist. I wish there was a third pool that was not as crowded. Pickleball: So great that it was complimentary and the courts were very nice. My kids and I spent a lot of time there. Breakfast buffet: LOVED it! I loved that they offered a different seafood dish daily: octopus salad, tuna poke, shrimp cocktail. Also, their taro rolls were delicious and their pastries were amazing. This was definitely our favorite dining at the resort. The rooms: Beautiful and clean. I especially loved the sound system in the bathroom with Hawaiian music playing. All in all - a wonderful trip and I would highly recommend!!

“Baby bliss!”

All around amazing. Service and detail are above and beyond. We traveled with our 8 month old and the service made it a breeze. Complimentary cabanas made it easy to safely enjoy the pool and beach. They even provided a pack and play for our cabana. We will look forward to coming back each year!

“Way overpriced for a sub-standard experience”

I really wanted to enjoy this vacation, but ultimately came away just feeling ripped off. We originally had a 1 bedroom ocean view suite that cost around $5k per night. It was me, my husband and our 2 teenage kids, so we needed either two rooms or a suite with 2 bathrooms. We booked late due to travel changes so we went with the suite to ensure we were together. A few days before we arrived we received multiple calls from them asking if we wanted to upgrade our room to a 1 bedroom ocean front suite. They made it sound spectacular, so we took the upgrade at an additional $3k cost as it came with some other minor benefits (free laundry and parking). What a disappointment. Our room was on the Spago side of the resort one floor up from the presidential suite. Our ocean front view was basically the sunshades of the presidential suite, then the extensive garden for the presidential suite, then the roof of Spago and then, finally, a small view of the ocean obstructed by palms. Incredibly sad for $3k extra. Plus the design of the building with huge columns meant you felt incredibly closed in. The whole resort could do with a face lift. They are currently working on multiple spaces so there was a lot of construction. No discount provided for this disruption. The spa was also in temporary space and that was just sad. It was just empty guest rooms. No shower facilities to use and you changed in a curtain cubicle. Again, no discount but I was told multiple times how the disruption is worth it because the new spa will be amazing. That’s great for whoever experiences it, but it did not help me at all. The whole resort felt claustrophobic. It is very narrow, so views are limited. Also the pool areas are very small and surrounded by cabanas so you do not actually see the ocean from the pools unless you pay an extra $1,250 per day for ocean view cabanas. Last problem was that we had bad weather for a few days. This meant that Ferraros was closed. This really highlighted the limited food options and bad weather options at the resort. All you could do was order room service. Now the staff were lovely. I just think the resort is dated and is configured badly. The real kicker is the crazy cost. This place is riding on its White Lotus notoriety and charging twice what other similar resorts would charge. I would not come back here again. The Four Seasons on Oahu is much better for less money.
