Pacific Island Paradises

Sheraton Maui Resort & Spa Situated on Kaanapali Beach, the Sheraton Maui Resort & Spa offers a premier location for a dream Hawaiian vacation. Almost all of the 508 rooms and suites directly face the Pacific, with a private lanai to enjoy spectacular views. Inside, the craftsmanship of old Hawai'i reveals itself in lamps of bamboo design, patterns recalling block prints on kapa and rattan chairs drawing on the peacock shapes of ancient thrones. The unique Ohana Suites encompass two spacious and adaptable rooms. On the highest level rises the Ali'i Suite, surrounding you with prized artwork, from authentic koa bowls and drums to original Matson menu covers from the 1930s with images that have defined Hawai'i for generations. Dining options at The Sheraton Maui Resort & Spa are rich and varied. With sweeping coastal views and a delightful menu of island influenced creations, the Black Rock Terrace is perfect for casual dining and Black Rock Steak & Seafood for contemporary dining. East and West culinary delights combine at Teppan- yaki Dan, where guests will enjoy a fusion of delicious culinary traditions, as master chefs prepare originally inspired dishes at their table. For cool tropical drinks, light menus and lilting slack- key guitar, try the Cliff Dive Bar, or follow the garden paths to the Mai Tai Bar. Experience Sheraton Maui's own luau on Kaanapali Beach, and share the music, dance, and history of the islands right at the foot of the famous cliff diving point, Black Rock. The Spa at Black Rock features indoor and outdoor secluded relaxation areas and seven luxurious treatment rooms available for massages, body treatments, facials, skin enhancements, manicures and pedicures. All products focus on the rejuvenating qualities of the sea. Each product combines natural ocean plants, minerals and water with the essence oils of Polynesia to create a truly authentic tropical spa experience. The resort offers a plethora of Hawaiian cultural activites to help you experience the Spirit of Aloha. Spend your days learning the ancient art of hula, adorning yourself with fresh flower leis created by you or learning the ukulele with our Aloha Ambassadors. As the sun sets over Black Rock, experience the magic of these islands with the one-of-a-kind Torch Lighting and Cliff Dive Ceremony, found only at the Sheraton Maui Resort & Spa. Nearby, the charming town of Lahaina promises even more fun and exciting experiences including entertainment, cultural events and world-class shopping and dining.
