The Last Resort 

5.0

Kapaau, HI
  • Up to 150 guests
  • Raw space
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $1,000

Nestled on the Big Island of Hawai'i’s Kohala Coast, you'll find The Last Resort, a high-end, 2-acre estate where world travelers, friends and family can make magical memories. We believe the best travel is off-the-beaten-path, immersed in local culture and food. That's why we feature local art and architecture, cultivate our own food, curate bespoke experiences, and nourish our ʻāina. It's one reason why we're in the top 5% of Big Island Airbnb homes and consistently ranked as a Superhost and Guest Favorite.

Hosting our wedding here exceeded our expectations in every possible way. I truly and honestly cannot recommend this venue enough. Big Island Last Resort is exactly the elevated, mystical, lush backyard wedding venue you've been looking for. It is an expansive yet intimate space that provides the perfect backdrop for a luxurious, natural vibe. You should have your wedding here!!! The owner property managers were also incredibly accommodating, communicative, and so easy to work with. Everything went so smoothly at every part of the planning process. And then they really made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed both during our stay and on our wedding day. The property managers, Jesse Madeline, are so incredibly kind and gracious and extended the warmest hospitality to us and our families. Truly a pleasure to interact with!! The houses themselves were recently renovated and you can tell from when you first walk in that no expense was spared. There are legitimate high-end finishes throughout the entire house -- floors, countertops, couches, tables, chairs, appliances, artwork -- everything is high-quality and expensive. But at the same time, the houses invoke a sense of home and tranquility, with a lot of natural materials and local aspects incorporated. It was just so pleasant to be in that space. The backyards of the 2 houses were also the perfect space for a wedding. It really feels like they were designed to have weddings there (maybe they were? lol). We had around 50 people and there was an abundance of space. We had the ceremony underneath this really amazing banyan tree in the larger yard (aptly called Banyan Yard). We then had cocktail hour in the smaller yard (Mango Yard), before moving back to the Banyan Yard for dinner, drinks, and dancing. There was more than enough space in the yard for food tables, a bar, dj, a dance floor, a couple of lounge areas with chairs/couches, and also seating for 50 people to eat. (And you could definitely comfortably fit more people). Having the two separate yards also created a really nice flow to the whole evening - it was nice to have the separation of spaces for different parts of the wedding. You won't find a space that comes close to offering what this space does. It really is the perfect backdrop to create a magical and unique environment. You're surrounded by lush vegetation and so much beautiful nature. I'm not sure we found any other venue on the Big Island that would have created an experience like we had at Big Island Last Resort. I have infinite good things to say about this venue, so I'll stop here lol. Seriously just book this place, you 100% will not regret it.

The Ritz-Carlton Maui, Kapalua 

5.0

Lahaina, HI
  • Up to 900 guests
  • All-inclusive
  • Indoor & outdoor
  • Starts at $50,000

Have you ever wondered how the world sees you? Not humans, but the sun, stars, and even the creatures under the sea. It’s time to restore ourselves to our most natural state. Free from stress and the hecticness of everyday life. Join us at The Ritz-Carlton Maui, Kapalua to restore yourself to the wild. With an array of indoor and outdoor venues and legendary service, The Ritz-Carlton Maui, Kapalua sets a new standard for destination weddings. From breathtaking ceremonies on an oceanfront lawn to elegant ballroom receptions, The Ritz-Carlton Maui, Kapalua creates destination weddings that capture the magic and distinction of Maui itself.

We recently hosted our wedding at the Ritz and we had the best experience. It was beyond anything we could have imagined and that is due to the people that work there. From the very beginning working with Akiko on our contract through check-out with Zella at Guest Relations and Margie at reception. The property is absolutely beautiful and speaks for itself, but it is because of the people that we plan to return for future vacations and anniversaries for years to come. The true ALL STARS of our experience were Marisa, our wedding coordinator, and Michelle, the manager at the Banyan Tree where we hosted our reception. You could not ask for a better wedding coordinator than Marisa. She was always organized and on top of every detail, answered questions via email/phone/video chat right away, dealt amazingly well with all the wedding stress and last-minute details, and made you feel like you were the only person she was there to take care of. When I say she went above and beyond at her job, that is an understatement. She always had the right answer in any situation. She helped us coordinate events before and after our wedding, which she didn't have to do, and put extra special touches on each of them. She made everything special, memorable, and go off without a hitch. This is the place to get married if you want to have the experience of a lifetime. Make sure you ask for Marisa to be your coordinator. Planning your wedding is such an intimate experience that you really bond with people you work with. My husband and I definitely bonded with Marisa and are so appreciative of her that we already miss talking with her all the time. Michelle, who handled the dinner portion of our wedding at the Banyan Tree (the restaurant on property) was also wonderful and did an amazing job making our dinner beautiful, special, unique, and magical. She handled all our special requests from diet, decor, music, and more with grace and expertise. We had 52 people, so it wasn't a small wedding dinner. She executed every detail we asked of her in a fashion that was better than we could have imagined. She always guided us in the right direction when we had difficulties making decisions on food, drinks, seating arrangements, etc. Michelle clearly has impeccable taste and is a true professional in her industry. I greatly appreciate her thoughtfulness, generosity, and gracious personality that is exhibited in everything she does. Her staff is reflective of her... attentive, caring, and professional. Lana in particular took great care of us. She was helping us out on our wedding day, making sure everything at the dinner stayed on schedule and that all our needs were taken care of. When my husband and I went back six days later for Valentine's Day before we left the Ritz we got to sit in Lana's section and spend more time with her. She was such a joy it elevated our dinner experience all the more. I have so many stories about how the people at Ritz made our experience a once-in-a-lifetime wedding experience (and vacation) there just isn't enough room to write it in this review. Overall, we spent about a week at the Ritz and every person we interacted with operated with the same high level of care, customer service, and a true spirit of graciousness. Needless to say, we plan to return to the Ritz in Kapalua as soon as we can! I don’t think we’ll find a comparable experience anywhere else in the world. Lastly, the cost was a good value, you won't regret it!
