The secret to the best tropical beach vacation ever at the Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa is to have a beach rental – rent a beach tent or cabana for a day – or two!
You have to do this ahead of time, when you make your reservations, because they fill to capacity. Before you’ve been there, it’s almost impossible understand your different options.

But the beach services center at the Hyatt Regency Maui did end up giving me the perfect recommendation after asking about my family’s likes and activities!
But so you won’t have to just guess and hope they give you the right recommendation, read on to find out about the different types of beach rentals we saw at the Hyatt Regency Maui Spa and Resort, and how to reserve them….

I’ve only stayed at resorts three times in my entire life. The very first time I stayed at a resort was on a trip to Hawaii twenty years ago. So when we finally got the chance to take our teens to Hawaii, I knew we’d really have to stay in a resort to give our teens the Hawaii experience I remembered.
This is the part where I’m supposed to start gushing about how everything at the Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa was perfect, and heavenly, and paradise!
But I’m not going to do that.
But I’m still going to show you why the Hyatt Regency Maui Resort and Spa is the BEST place to stay. It’s not perfect, but it’s pretty close….

West Maui is one of the three different areas we stayed in during our Maui vacation. Keeping the areas straight even on such a tiny island isn’t easy. Especially when all the guide books like to tell you that every location is wonderful!

Where to stay in Maui? How hard could it be? It’s an island, right?
Wrong. Well, not wrong about the island part. It is an island. But wrong about the easy part.
There are two main areas are where you’ll find most of the resorts. There’s West Maui – which probably looks like north Maui to you on a map, and South Maui – which is also on the west coast of Maui, but not as far west as West Maui and further south than West Maui. Get that?
No? Well keep reading and I’ll explain….
