I had the privilege of attending Pros in Paradise with ALG Vacation September 7–11, 2025, at the breathtaking Hyatt Regency Maui Resort.
Our first day was a morning tour of Haleakala Crater. It was spectacular, the picture just does not do it justice.
Ka’anapali Site inspections:
CONDO-STYLE – Aston Ka’anapali Shores
Aston Ka’anapali Shores, where there are a washer, dryer, and kitchen in every unit—all major bonuses for anyone traveling with children!
Tip:
Use the Beach Activities Desk to take the strain off planning the kids’ days. Let them do it for you!
FOR TEENS – Sheraton Maui
Sheraton Maui offers surfing lessons, sunset s’mores roasts, an enormous pool, and more on Maui’s to p–rated beach.
Tip:
Do not miss the cliff-diving ritual that takes place here!
FOR ENDLESS ACTIVITIES – The Westin Maui
From hula lessons, koi fish feeding, basket weaving, plant talks, The Westin Maui is hard to beat, especially with their addition of The Valley Alley arcade—the largest on the island.
Tip:
The two Topgolf suites are a fun way to get kids into golf before they try their swing on the fourteen courses in Maui!
HAWAIIAN CULTURE – Outrigger Ka’anapali
Recently named the best for cultural immersion in Hawai’i by Travel Age West, Outrigger Ka’anapali Beach Resort lets you send clients somewhere that feels truly Hawaiian.
Tip:
Take classes in Hawaiian weaving, lei making, and ocean navigation, all of which have multiple sessions each week.
Wailea Site Inspections:
QUIET LUXURY – Fairmont Kai Lani
Fairmont Kea Lani, Maui’s only all-suite hotel. With beaches, golfing, tennis, and villas all conveniently placed, this fits the bill for romance, babymoons, and trips with kids.
Tip:
The 2- and 3-bedroom villas are right on Polo Beach and have a full living room, plunge pool, and barbecue.
FOR A SPA GETAWAY – Grand Waliea
The Grand Wailea has gotten a lot of attention for the new Nobu restaurant and hosting one of USA Today’s “10 Best Luaus for 2025,” but the Kiolani Spa (featured in Vogue’s 2025 Global Spa Guide) is amazing.
Tip:
The spa takes its inspiration from the Hawaiian moon calendar; let that guide your wellness journey.
FOR COUPLES – Waliea Beach Marriott
Wailea Beach Resort, which advisors and guests love for being so convenient to Haleakala and the Sundeck Collection suites beach walk access.
Tip:
This is a Marriott property, so a great option for your Bonvoy customers.
We spent an afternoon giving back in kindness, with participation in Treecovery to restore trees in Lahaina and Kula.
