Humuhumunukunukuāpua'a Maui

Humuhumunukunukuāpua'a sits on Wailea Alanui Drive. It is a ten-minute walk from the sands of Wailea Beach.

The restaurant serves contemporary Asian-influenced seafood. While the area is heavy on generic hotel dining, the room runs smart and elegant, leaning into the coastal setting with more precision than its neighbors. It is the better choice for those who want a formal pace; the crowd stays focused on the plate rather than the resort bustle found at The Shops at Wailea nearby. If the kitchen’s ambition occasionally feels formal, it is because this spot is built for an extended evening, separating itself from the quick-turn tables elsewhere on the coast.
