Four-star Marriott in South Maui with direct proximity to both Wailea courses, four pools, and family-friendly infrastructure.
The Wailea Beach Resort sits on the South Maui coastline within five minutes of both the Gold and Emerald courses, making it the most convenient base for golfers focused on the Wailea layouts. The 543-room Marriott property operates four pools, including a complex featuring Hawaii's longest resort water slide, along with five restaurants, a full-service spa, fitness facilities, and a kids club that makes the property viable for family golf trips.
The proximity to the Wailea courses is the core golf advantage. The short drive eliminates the logistical considerations that accompany stays in Kihei or Kahului, and Marriott Bonvoy members may access rate advantages through the loyalty program. The resort's concierge handles tee time coordination at the Wailea courses and can arrange rounds at the Kapalua courses for guests willing to make the 50-minute drive to Maui's northwest coast.
Nightly rates of $400 to $700 position the Wailea Beach Resort below the Five Diamond luxury tier while delivering the amenity breadth and beach access that justify the Wailea address. For golfers splitting their time between the Wailea courses and the South Maui beach and dining scene, the Marriott provides a strong base without the premium of the luxury properties.
