History
The resort on Kaʻanapali Beach on Maui opened in 1971 as the Maui Surf Hotel. In 1987 it was extensively rebuilt and rebranded as the Westin Maui, with a new Beach Tower added, and in 1988 its landmark aquatic playground of pools and waterslides was completed.
The resort has undergone several major renovations: a $64 million refresh in 2003, and a $120 million transformation from 2018 to 2020 that created the adults-oriented Hokupaʻa tower and refreshed the Beach Tower. A subsequent major renovation (reported around $160 million) saw the former Ocean Tower renamed the Kūkahi Tower in 2024. The resort carries roughly 755–770 rooms and operates under Marriott's Westin brand.
