Kaanapali Beach Hotel Named Most Hawaiian Hotel

Kaanapali Beach, Maui, Hawaii - Kaanapali Beach Hotel has distinguished itself within the ranks of Hawaii’s hospitality industry as Hawaii’s Most Hawaiian Hotel. This prestigious honor was conferred upon the Maui hotel by the Honolulu based Waiaha Foundation, a Hawaii non-profit organization dedicated to the perpetuation of the Hawaiian culture. In the selection process, the Waiaha Foundation acknowledged the unique pioneering role Ka‘anapali Beach Hotel personnel have in helping preserve and nurture the rich culture and history of the indigenous islanders. The hotel was further recognized for sharing their knowledge and enthusiasm with the hotel’s diverse clientele, and with others within the industry.

"The recognition is an honor," said hotel General Manager, Mike White. "As exciting as this award and the acknowledgment of our efforts are, it’s the continued support of those who make it possible that is truly the best reward of all. To our employees, return guests, non-profit organizations, community and industry partners, mahalo (thank you)!"

The hotel has recently received honors from two acclaimed U.S. travel publications. Kaanapali Beach Hotel was added to the coveted Gold List of "Best Places to Stay," an award given by the readers of Condé Nast Traveler Magazine, and named the "#1 Best Value Hotel in Hawaii" by the readers of Travel & Leisure Magazine.

Guests of the hotel seem to agree with the recent honors. Jim & Virginia Whitten, 15-time visitors to Kaanapali Beach Hotel write, "While we travel extensively throughout the world, there is only one place - Kaanapali Beach Hotel - where we return again and again, where we feel we are home when we arrive, and where we experience a deep sadness when, regrettably, we must depart. The people at Kaanapali Beach Hotel, the hospitality and the atmosphere are exceptional. The true sense of Hawaii and the Hawaiian spirit that one feels is unsurpassed. Quite simply, Kaanapali Beach Hotel is our favorite vacation destination in the entire world!"
