Botero Lounge

The Botero Lounge is a great dining option for adults. While technically, I wouldn’t call it one of the Grand Wailea Restaurants, You can grab a drink and a bite to eat while enjoying nightly entertainment at the Botero Lounge.

The music at the lounge is the perfect relaxing vibe to cap off another wonderful day in Maui. The lounge is now serving up some amazing sushi rolls that I recommend you give a try and an amazing mule drink. My kids love to head over to the mermaid and toss pennies while mom and dad get to relax and enjoy a cocktail and listen to some great music

HumuHumu; Grand Wailea’s Fine Dining Restaurant + The Best Table on Maui!

Dining at Humuhumu’s is a once in a lifetime experience! You will dine above the lagoon for the best view of the sunset, and enjoy seasonal Hawaiian foods made by well-known chef Alvin Savella.

If you really want the best dining experience, I recommend calling to reserve table 70 which is considered to be the best seat in the restaurant and let me tell you it truly is. You sit out on what seems like your own little island with some of the most spectacular views you can imagine. 

If you want this seat, call as far in advance as possible. Keep in mind that this does come with an additional cost, but is known to be an amazing dining experience always with a different 5-course meal and wine tastings.

Another perk is that if you are traveling with little ones, kids under five eat free, and they have their own kids menu. There are also vegetarian options and dinner options for larger parties as well, so this is a great option if you are traveling with a large group.

Here are some of the amazing dishes we tried out.

For starters, I highly recommend getting the scallops which were honestly the best scallops I have ever had in my life. If you are adventurous, try the octopus, it is really good but some of my kids were a bit freaked out eating octopus.

When it comes to entrees it is hard to go wrong, we had the mahi mahi and hulu hulu chicken, both were truly top notch. Lastly, for dessert check out the green tea Japanese cheesecake, it is not only delicious but quite the work of art. You can see all the delicious meals at the 2:21 mark of the video below.

Hours:

Bar: 5 pm – 10 pm

Dinner: 5 pm – 9:30 pm
