Vistana Signature Experiences, the developer behind Sheraton Vacation Club and Westin Vacation Club resorts, announced that The Westin Nanea Ocean Villas, a highly anticipated oceanfront resort on Maui, is now open.
“Maui is one of the world’s most desirable destinations, and we are excited to open our doors to this extraordinary resort,” said Steve Williams, chief operating officer of Vistana Signature Experiences. “The Westin Nanea Ocean Villas is a truly unique property that blends Hawai‘i’s rich heritage with the aloha spirit for which the islands are known.”
Located on 16 acres along North Kāʻanapali Beach, the resort features one-, two- and three-bedroom villas designed to provide a relaxing retreat. The villas are complemented by culturally inspired programs and curated Hawaiian experiences intended to immerse guests in the local culture.
“In the Hawaiian language, nanea means to be in a state of relaxation,” said Chris Rabang, general manager of The Westin Nanea Ocean Villas. “We are thrilled to begin welcoming guests and look forward to helping them embrace our resort’s namesake through meaningful experiences and signature Westin amenities.”
Amenities at the resort include an expansive lagoon-style swimming pool, oceanfront cabanas and a WestinWORKOUT® Fitness Studio. Mauka Makai, the resort’s full-service restaurant, honors local farming and fishing traditions of ancient Hawai‘i, while the Inu Pool Bar offers a relaxed oceanfront setting for drinks and light fare.
Each villa combines the convenience of home with signature Westin touches, such as king-sized Westin Heavenly® Beds and Westin Heavenly® Baths, ensuring a comfortable and restorative stay for guests.
