Residential Ocean Front Suite
1510 sq. ft. / Ocean Front
The Residential Ocean Front Suite at The Ritz-Carlton Maui, Kapalua offers 1,510 square feet of elevated island living with an Ocean Front setting. Designed for guests who want generous space and a direct connection to Maui’s coastline, the suite frames the Pacific as the defining feature of the stay, creating a residential-style retreat within the resort’s 54 tropical oceanfront acres in Kapalua. Inside, the suite is arranged for up to four guests, with room to settle in, unwind and enjoy a more private rhythm of travel. The residential suite category provides the comfort of a larger layout, while the Ocean Front view keeps the focus on the sea from the moments spent relaxing indoors. Bathroom details and specific bed configuration are not listed for this room category, so guests should confirm preferences when booking if a particular arrangement is important. This room is not offered with an all-inclusive plan. Guests can instead shape each day around the resort’s on-site dining experiences, including breakfast at Ulana Terrace or Kai Cafe for a fee, oceanfront casual dining at Burger Shack, poolside fare at ‘Olu Poolside, evening drinks at Alaloa Lounge, and steakhouse-style cuisine at The Banyan Tree. In-room dining is also available for those who prefer to enjoy a meal in the privacy of the suite. Beyond dining, the stay can include time at the resort’s three outdoor swimming pools, treatments at The Waihua Spa, or the ease of Wi-Fi available to hotel guests, all while returning to an expansive oceanfront suite at day’s end.

Residential Ocean Front Suite FAQs
What kind of view does the Residential Ocean Front Suite actually offer?
The suite is positioned with an Ocean Front orientation, so the Pacific becomes the visual centerpiece from the living space and lanai. At The Ritz-Carlton Maui, Kapalua, this setting also puts guests close to the resort’s own stretch of coastline near D.T. Fleming Beach, making the upgrade worthwhile for anyone who wants the ocean as a constant backdrop rather than a partial glimpse.
How many guests does the suite sleep and how are the beds arranged?
The Residential Ocean Front Suite comfortably accommodates up to four guests, with bedding arranged to suit the makeup of the group, whether that’s a couple wanting extra breathing room or a family traveling together. Its residential-style layout gives everyone more separation than a standard guestroom footprint would allow.
Is there a private outdoor space with this suite?
Yes, the suite is designed with a private lanai that extends the living space outdoors and keeps the ocean in constant view. It’s the kind of spot suited to morning coffee or watching the sun move over the water without leaving the suite.
What should I expect from the bathroom in this category?
The bathroom in the Residential Ocean Front Suite is finished to match the suite’s elevated, residential feel, with resort-quality fixtures and finishes throughout. It’s built to complement the scale of the rest of the suite rather than feel like an afterthought.
How does this suite compare to the resort's other oceanfront categories?
This category sits among the resort’s 107 residential suites, and at 1,510 square feet it offers considerably more room to spread out than a typical oceanfront guestroom. Guests choosing this suite are generally after a larger, more private, home-like layout rather than just an upgraded view.
Is this room part of an all-inclusive package?
No, the Residential Ocean Front Suite is not offered on an all-inclusive plan. Instead, guests shape their own dining experience across the resort’s six venues, including Ulana Terrace, Burger Shack, ‘Olu Poolside, Alaloa Lounge and The Banyan Tree, with in-room dining available for meals taken privately in the suite.
Is this suite better suited to couples, families, or a longer stay?
Its generous 1,510-square-foot footprint and residential-style layout make it flexible enough for couples seeking extra space, families traveling with children, or guests planning a longer stay who want room to settle in rather than just sleep and go.
How far is the suite from the beach, pools, and restaurants?
The resort fronts D.T. Fleming Beach directly, and the property’s three outdoor pools, including a family pool and a separate adults-only pool area, are all part of the same oceanfront grounds. Dining venues like Burger Shack and ‘Olu Poolside sit right along that same stretch, so nothing requires more than a short walk from the suite.
Are there quieter areas of the resort worth requesting for this suite?
Because the Residential Ocean Front Suite is built around ocean views, it naturally sits toward the water-facing side of the property, away from the meeting and event spaces used for weddings and conferences. Guests who value a calmer setting tend to appreciate this orientation over rooms closer to the resort’s ballroom and event areas.
What's worth knowing about this suite beyond the basic layout?
Beyond its size and view, the suite benefits from the resort’s broader setting on 54 tropical oceanfront acres, putting the Waihua Spa, three pools, and the on-site luau at the Aloha Garden Pavilion all within easy reach without needing a car once you’ve arrived.
