This was my second stay at Napili Kai and it’s truly an oasis. Everyone on staff is so friendly, the rooms are idyllic and the views are breathtaking.my only wish is that the restaurant wasn’t always booked solid and turning guests away. But otherwise it’s amazing. Definitely check out the spa and get a massage from TeTe!

Parking was horrible and the food was just alright and overpriced. Booked dinner reservations 7 out of 8 nights at the sea house and cancelled 5 of them. Minimal kids menu options and drinks are not part of the 'kids eat free' program. More food options at the pool snack bar but it closes at 5. Was closer to walk to kapalua bay then to napili bay based on our room location so never actually went to napili bay. We had 1-bedroom oceanfront room and the two twin beds worked perfectly for our kids. Unfortunately, the king bed was not comfortable and likely was quite old based on the divots on each side of the mattress. Read a lot of great reviews prior to booking, but personally, I was underwhelmed. The best part was the lanai and ocean view.

Absolutely Beautiful Resort -we stayed in a studio with a full kitchen and lanai. Kitchen was fully equipped including utensils to use the outdoor grills. There are 4 pools, all with breathtaking views of the bay, the beach is right off the property and they provide beach chairs and towels that can be exchanged for fresh ones through out the day. They have a snack bar with delicious frozen drinks. They have fans and air conditioning in the rooms. Do not hesitate to book here! We absolutely loved our stay.

We had a fantastic week at Napili Kai Beach Resort and would absolutely return! The staff were incredibly friendly, and the property itself was stunning. The included activities were a great touch—we especially loved the lei-making class! One of the highlights was the courtesy room for travelers with late flights, which allowed us to enjoy an extra beach day stress-free. Our only downside was visiting during President’s Week, when the resort was packed with very young children. We expected kids, but the sheer number—especially on the beach and around the property—made it a bit overwhelming at times. However, for families looking for a kid-friendly resort with a safe, beautiful beach, it’s a perfect choice. After the holiday week, the atmosphere became peaceful and relaxing, just what we were hoping for the entire stay. This wasn’t the resort’s fault at all; it was simply a matter of timing. We’d happily return at a quieter time to fully soak in the tranquil experience. Thank you, Napili Kai, for a wonderful stay!

I called, spoke with Hazel and added 1 studio to our existing Expedia reservation. She was efficient and welcoming on the phone creating excitement for our anticipated staycation. Our arrival to Napili Kai was quick, easy, and efficient. Jalin was efficient and accomodating. I asked if we could get a 3rd room and the third room located near our ocean front 2 bedroom and our other studio and she delivered. It was awesome. Very quiet, relaxing, and clean. We had breakfast at Seahouse daily and they were extremely accomodating to our group sizes. They were never the same and always a minimum of 6 and the hostess always said okay to our surprise. We waited 5 minutes each time so they could arrange for our party. Pools were clean and 1 pool and hot tub was next to our 2 bedroom ocean front which made our stay extremely enjoyable. It was our first time staycationing here as a family and we will be back!! Loved every minute of it.
