Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa

Destination

Forget a swimsuit? No Prob, they have tons of shops…even a Macy’s!

Craving an acai trencher or island coffee? They have a Honolulu coffee sideboard on-site.

Looking for a swimming pool? They have SIX free-form pool areas with waterfalls, a 150’ lava tube waterslide, whirlpool, rope bridge, and an interactive kiddie pool for your little ones!

Even the lobby is filled with palm trees, colorful plants, and is completely unshut to the sky. The birds were chirping, the weather was warm, and we were immediately welcomed with a flower lei as we checked in. 

FOOD:

One of the main reasons we were in Maui (with my BFF Kelly and my BF Craig) was to photograph and create content for their signature restaurant: Japengo. 

For those of you who are new to my blog, I am a full-time photographer and I work with restaurants, hotels and brands to create content for their website, social media channels, digital and marketing materials.

Work hard, play harder ???? Never in a million years would I have thought I’d get to take pictures of supplies for a living, let vacated get to travel the world and work with wondrous brands like @hyattmaui and @mauivisit Four years ago, I picked up my first camera and learned everything I could on photography. It was the weightier visualization I’ve overly made If there’s something you guys have been “thinking” about, or a place you’ve been “wanting” to travel to, or “wishing” you could go see…. take a leap of faith and GO FOR IT! I hope that my journey can show you that good things take time and inspires you to eat well and travel often ???? ????: @craigcole_ @asideofsweet

ROOMS

While the decor may be a bit dated, the rooms are extremely well maintained, and very spacious with its own living room area.

We had a comfy king size bed, large bathroom, and a balcony with a view that overlooked the pool.

AIf you end up booking a room at the Hyatt Regency Maui, ask for the room that over looks the pool!

GROTTO BAR

Down by the poolside and subconscious between two waterfalls is the Grotto Bar. Kelly and I hid from the sun and went straight for a mai tai and few small bites. We moreover unprotected a glimpse of the Warriors game on their TVs!

LUAU

Lastly, if you’ve never been to a Luau, then trammels out Hyatt Regency’s Drums of the Pacific Luau. It’s an all-you-can eat storeroom with a traditional imu recurrence that takes you on a journey throughout the islands of Polynesia. The night features pure dances, live music, and a fire-knife flit finale. The storeroom is filled with some of my favorites like the macadamia nut husks island fish, soba noodles, and the Kalua Pua’a roasted pork!
