   Our family attended the Christmas brunch. The experience was similar to a cruise ship. The food quality was very average and the service was very limited - saying it nicely.

   Had an incredible experience for Christmas Eve. The wait staff made us feel like we were the only ones in the restaurant. Different staff stopped by to check on us and even asked if we liked the bottle of wine, then gave us some insight. Very attentive. Our server was Stephanie and she chatted with us like we were friends. Amazing time!

   Grand wailea tries to nickel and dime you for everything without providing a solid experience. They wanted $35 per person for you to get a table closer to the water. We declined and they tried to sit us in the bar for dinner with basically a coffee table for our meal. The dining room was empty. We noticed most diners came for appetizers or ordered entrees only due to the steep prices. I’m fine with paying for expensive meals but usually the food and service and experience make it worthwhile. Food was ok at best, nothing special about service. Such shame because this restaurant used to be the fine dining experience you planned for a now it’s just an overpriced average restaurant. Better off walking to another nearby hotel and eating there.

   Arrived and first thing Valet was rise and had an attitude. The resort feels run down, outdated, feels like you’re at Disney World. The service at the restaurant was good, excellent server and beautiful view, but the prices were unbelievably outrageous for the food. The food was just average. I assume that’s one reason they don’t share the prices on their website menu. Some guy in the lobby was acting erratically, seemed to definitely be under the influence of something more than alcohol, and was waving hand signals to us as he walked by, which left our youngest feeling pretty uneasy. Took about a half an hour wait to get our car back from valet on the way out. Would not go back, do not recommend.

   I made an error when I made the reservation by selecting a different night. The staff was gracious and accommodating and, even though the restaurant was busy, they were able to quickly accommodate our large party.

    Humuhumunukunumuapua'a (I hope autocorrect remembers this so I won't have to type it again) was a very lovely place to eat. The open air ambience and cuisine were both exactly what we hoped for. Our server, Michael, was incredibly helpful in guiding our selections and we were both very happy with the quality and presentation of the food.
