What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
KAPA Bar & Grill is praised for its stunning sunset views and lively poolside atmosphere, enhanced by live music. While many enjoy the creative cocktails and some of the diverse comfort food dishes, a common sentiment is that the prices are steep, even for a resort setting. Some diners found certain dishes to be underwhelming or bland, leading to disappointment given the cost.
"Came across this gem on my way back from the Wailea Coast Walk. Great spot to watch the sunset with a $12 lager! Service was splendid - Guy did a great job! Will definitely return!"

"If you're in the hotel, you have to take an elevator and poke around to find this place. The view is amazing. Live music started while I was there. Staff is friendly and legitimately seem to enjoy their jobs and like their coworkers. Food was fine. The drinks were amazing, tho!"
Julian Darius
"Went because of the ratings. Not always the experience you expect. We arranged our first day on the island to be here at sunset. Great view. Good ratings on Google Maps. Overpriced (even by resort standards).
We sat at the bar to take in the sunset (which was gorgeous). But $23 for a signature cocktail is a little steep. We had a large late lunch, so settled on some appetizers for dinner. We got the coconut shrimp (three large shrimp) and the Korean Fried Chicken Bites. The shrimp was about average, but the chicken was interesting. A combination of sweet and spicy (which is always a hit in my book), and a larger portion than I was expecting. $150 for appetizers and cocktails? I'll let you be the judge."
