Food is ok for a hotel restaurant. But I wouldn't make this a destination restaurant unless staying at the hotel and too tired to go somewhere else for dinner. Prices are typical for hotel. Location of in front of the main pool but covered roof.

Sunday Brunch at Mauka Makai is back and it's just as fine as ever. Mauka Makai restaurant is located at The Westin Nanea Ocean Villas, the resort North Beach end of Kaanapali. The dishes were all so delicious and creatively prepared. The must-have brunch staples of Prime Rib and Seafood Bar were uniquely prepared that sets it aside from the other brunches. With that, other dishes to choose from, and don't forget the desserts to indulge in. Don't forget to order a mimosa or cocktail to pair with your Brunch Plate. Make your reservation for the next Sunday Brunch (10am-2pm).

What a place to eat brunch!After a long day of travel from TX to Kaanapali, Maui, the next day is like nirvana! You're all rested and clean from the previous days dirt.A group of us, 5 adults, headed out to eat brunch, lunch time for our body clock but breakfast time in Maui. We sat overlooking the ocean, with swaying palm trees and warm, friendly staff to greet you. The server came over with a smile for a greeting and ordered the food. We were all hungry. When the food came, it was like a bunch of hungry wolves devouring their captured prey. The food was so tasty and good. Their omelette was thick and full of goodness! I was going to order the eggs Benedict but I will order it the next time we go for breakfast. My wife ordered pancakes and she smiled through breakfast. Our other companions ordered the eggs Benedict and they about licked plate. So, we are going to come back here for breakfast soon!

Breakfast for 8 was easy here. Wait was minimal, service was quick and the food was great! The best part was the kids having their own menu that was basic and traditional, nothing over the top that overwhelmed the picky eaters. Views are great and the tables are properly spread apart to avoid bumping into each other and the staff. Prices are relevant to any local breakfast joint but better than your average resort price. You can enjoy mimosas as early as 7am which was a great starter for the day! Room charge was the easiest option for us.

Excellent breakfast and a great view of the ocean. They have a chef it seems, when Covid hit Hawaii most chef’s left the restaurants and replaced with line cooks. Also excellent service, prices but that Maui

Very good breakfast with a view. We enjoyed the French toast and smoked salmon bowl. The staff was friendly and helpful. Gave us a tip on where to get the best malasadas in Maui. ?

The service was way below parFood was decent, but server didnt take the order right.While we ordered it started raining and part of our table getting the rain, the server didnt agree to move us to a different table.Order took too long to deliver and was partially messed up.We were given bill of a different table.Overall annoying experience. Not matching even a bit with the overall good experience of Westin resort
Amazing breakfast. I got the Hawaiian Sweet Bread French Toast and my fiancé got the Kalua Pork Eggs Benedict. It was DELICIOUS! We had a nice view of the pool and palm trees.Service was pretty good.

Your basic hotel breakfast. Had a big juice menu that they couldn't make. Very small menu and only open 7 to 10am. No lunch or dinner

It was a quiet morning at Nanea so the pools and views were lovely while we had breakfast. Service was attentive and quick. Had the salmon lox. Very generous portion and perfectly toasted bagel.
