Wailea Beach

This was my favorite beach in Maui. The waves are calm and the water is a nice turquoiseish color. The beach trails on the hotel area are beautiful and lead to the shops and a church. I went twice here once in the morning and once during the sunset. Parking fills quickly in the main area so arrive before 10 am and you should be fine. We saw large turtles here as well they swim right by you , it’s so cool to see. Definitely visit this beach .

If you’re visiting Maui, make sure to stop by Polo Beach, - Wailea Beach located right next to the Fairmont Kea Lani. It’s a beautiful, calm spot perfect for swimming, sunbathing, or simply soaking in the island serenity. The soft golden sand, gentle waves, and laid-back atmosphere make it a true Maui gem. And remember — all beaches in Hawaii are open to the public, so everyone can enjoy this little piece of paradise. During our visit, we even saw whales passing by in the distance — an unforgettable sight! Stay for the sunset, and you’ll understand why Polo Beach is one of Wailea’s best-kept secrets.

Beautiful beach with an amazing view! There is plenty of free parking nearby with breathtaking views. This is a must visit when you are in Maui.

Beautiful beach to walk on and also a long boardwalk along the beach , if lucky it is one of the best places to watch the stunning sunsets

Beautiful! Absolutely beautiful. This was our favorite part of our stay. My son played in the waves for hours. We had to pull him away each time. The waves can really get wild, so be careful and keep an eye on little ones, no lifeguard here. We went in August and it was quite hot, hitting 90s each day and the sun is intense. Be prepared with preferably some shade to take a break and sunscreen, of course.
