Fantastic bar tender!! Great atmosphere. Swim Up bar is laid back with full bar and great food selection.

I am reviewing this because my next door neighbor told me she went because I spoke so glowingly of Maui, the GW pool and Hawaii in general. Yes I stayed at the GW. See review. http://www.yelp.com/biz/grand-wailea-wailea I loved the hotel and pool. I loved that the pool and bar area was clean and not full of drunken vomit like the swim up bars in the Caribbean are. As a part of your vacation it is a nice option. Being from NYC which is half way around the globe , when I travel to Hawaii I want to experience the culture, food and people. I don't want to just sit at the pool like a drunken fool! You can't experience Hawaii that way! If that is what you want, go to the Caribbean!

Dude, it's a bar in a pool under a waterfall. Pretty snazzy. But plan to pay $14 for drinks, if not more. They're interesting drinks, though, including blended cocktails. It's fun, but crowded, with kind of loud music. It's a little chlorinated. You have to wade your butt over. But come on, it's a tiny bar. In a pool! Under a waterfall! This is Kodak moment stuff. Bring a waterproof camera. Order a drink. Relax under the sun. My only regret is that we bought the plastic $22 pineapple mug (bigger refills) thinking we would go back on our last day, but it rained, so it was kind of a wash. I'll always remember the Grotto, and booping around in a large maze of swimming pools with a giant mixed drink.

Margarita and two frozen drinks. The red and white drink had ice cream.

We recently visited The Valley Alley in the Westin Maui (Kaanapali), and while the arcade was a…read morehit, the food was a total miss. The chicken nuggets we ordered for the kids were dry and honestly, I'd prefer Costco or McDonald's nuggets at that point--especially for $15+. The mac and cheese was just okay, but it also came out cold--another $15+ item. Everything is over $20, which would be fine if the food was worth it. My sliders were bland and also cold--no flavor at all. The only saving grace from the food side were the chicken wings--they were crispy and the sauces (especially the spicy one) were great. But--major shout-out to the bartender, Sean. He was awesome--super friendly, welcoming, and made the vibe a lot better amidst the food disappointment. He deserves 5 stars on his own. Now, the arcade itself? Fantastic for the kids! Great selection of games and prizes. We spent $40 and the kids had a blast, taking home some decent prizes. Bottom line: come for the arcade fun, not the food!

The staff helping at the games, bowling, and bar were all friendly and helpful. I also ordered an espresso martini to watch the group bowl, and a Hō Brah (island style old fashioned). We came two nights in a row because the family liked hanging out there after the pool.
