Breakfast was as amazing as view of ocean! Avocado toast and Breakfast Bento were INCREDIBLE! Guarantee you will not find anything this good on the whole island for breakfast! Ingredients are incredibly fresh with an amazing creative culinary touch! Visit to the hotel is worth it too! Design and atmosphere are amazing! Best cup of coffee entire week on Maui!

Service was good, dinner was great, breakfast was great. I’d recommend the buffet whilst my wife would recommend the salmon eggs Benedict for breakfast. Dinner, the highlights were the Wagyu burger and sirloin. My wife raved that the steak was prepared better than any steakhouse she has been to. 5/5 (expect high prices as with anything in Maui in the tourist areas) - Tristen

Very good breakfast with a view. We enjoyed the French toast and smoked salmon bowl. The staff was friendly and helpful. Gave us a tip on where to get the best malasadas in Maui.

Beautiful dining experience — we were lucky to get a reservation! Our own fault we were late, however they were kind and graceful and still accommodated our dinner party. Leisurely meal pace, which is expected and appreciated on the islands (if you’re in a hurry you should alert up front). Staff was very knowledgeable, friendly, and attentive and checked in frequently. Server Shawn was wonderful. I ordered the Scallop Risotto, which may have won the prize for the best meal of the week on Maui! Others ordered Prawns, and Curry dish... all rave reviews. Great kids options, and our picky eaters definitely approved! Would definitely return, and definitely recommend!

We had three exceptional meals here. This included two dinners (one was the buffet) and the champagne Sunday lunch. Food is very tasty with a lot of seafood and salads. But the breakfast buffet isn't good. The servers are lovely.

Food was amazing, we came two nights during our four day stay! James is lovely!

10 starts for customer service. Ryan provides absolutely outstanding hospitality. He is friendly, professional, courteous and always on top of things. Food doesn't come out cold, glasses say full and he is always ready with a suggestion and a smile. Ryan's personality and work ethic are exemplary. Promote this man into leadership positions.

Breakfast for 8 was easy here. Wait was minimal, service was quick and the food was great! The best part was the kids having their own menu that was basic and traditional, nothing over the top that overwhelmed the picky eaters. Views are great and the tables are properly spread apart to avoid bumping into each other and the staff. Prices are relevant to any local breakfast joint but better than your average resort price. You can enjoy mimosas as early as 7am which was a great starter for the day! Room charge was the easiest option for us.
