"The Sheraton Maui is a sprawling resort on the northern stretch of Kaanapali, but its entrance is very low-key. The breezy lobby is an open-air one, and out the back are great views of the historic Black Rock. Kaanapali is home to several big hotel resorts like Westin , Hyatt , and Marriott. All are fairly crowded and none feel particularly local; the Sheraton, however, being at Black Rock, feels a little different. Its location also means that it has excellent snorkeling. This laid-back resort has been modified since COVID-19, meaning reservations are required for nearly all services, from pool and beach chairs, to spa and fitness, and of course, dining. The resort’s three restaurants are open, two of which have outside seating, although buffets and in-room dining are no longer available." - Juliana Shallcross
