Beach wedding venues near Lahaina

Maui's leeward coast around Lahaina and Kaanapali is one of the most sought-after beach-wedding stretches on earth — calm turquoise water, west-facing sand that turns gold at sunset, and resorts built entirely around the destination-wedding experience. Nearly everything here is oceanfront or beachfront, with on-site lodging and all-inclusive coordination that make planning a Maui wedding from the mainland genuinely doable. Remember Hawaii's state-beach rules: permits are required and setups (chairs, arches, tents) are restricted on public sand, which is a big reason so many couples choose a private-resort beach here.

What couples say

My wife and I stayed here on our honeymoon years ago and finally came back with our teenage kids. We stayed in one of the bungalows this time and it's even nicer than the room we had on our honeymoon (which was pretty wonderful). Rooms are clean and spacious, and ours had a nice view of the ocean.

The Hyatt Regency in Maui is a very nice resort - in fact, it's our favorite to date. Our stay was in early April, just as it was the last time we stayed here in 2017. Customer service, convenience and atmosphere were all well within expectations for a resort in this class.

Great way to experience Hawaiian food and culture. Enjoyed the pre-meal activities like hula lessons, basket weaving, musical instruments to try, etc. Grounds are lovely. Exceptional customer service from friendly and attentive staff. Top shelf, unlimited alcohol and non-alcoholic beverages.
