Kāʻanapali is a census-designated place (CDP) in Maui County, Hawaiʻi, United States. The population was 1,375 at the 2000 census.Kaanapali Beach Resort began as an Amfac development in the 1960's, on mile-long Kaanapali Beach, on the western shore of Maui, a couple miles north of the old whaling town of Lahaina. Since that time, many more hotels and condos have been built both on Kaanapali Beach and for several miles up and down the coast, and Lahaina has turned into a tourist shopping Mecca.
Major resort hotels now on Kaanapali Beach (in order from the south end closest to Lahaina to the north end) are the Hyatt Regency Maui (opened in 1980), Maui Marriott (opened 1982, now turned into timeshares), Westin (originally opened as the Maui Surf in 1971, then rebuilt as the Westin 1987), Kaanapali Beach Hotel (1964), Sheraton (1963 but completely rebuilt in 1996), Royal Lahaina (1962), Maui Kaanapali Villas (originally a Hilton when it opened in 1963).
