Located within the exclusive Wailea Resort Community, our enchanting Maui boutique hotel and resort is a serene setting for an idyllic Maui vacation— where passion is ignited and you are embraced by island tranquility and the spirit of aloha the moment you arrive. The resort, known for many years as the Diamond Hawaii Resort & Spa, was built in the late 1980's as a private members/owners retreat for a group of 1400 Japanese investors and featuring 72 suites set four per building set amidst 15 acres of grounds with a distinctive look and feel of a Japanese mountain retreat, complete with Japanese gardens, koi ponds, spa and baths. As the world and, particularly, the Japanese economy hit hard times, the resort suffered from lack of maintenance and upgrades. In 2008, Black Diamond Hospitality Investments, purchased the interests of about 90% of the original investors and assumed ownership of the property. In January 2009, Honolulu-based Aqua Hotels & Resorts was selected to manage the resort, then renamed the Diamond Wailea Resort & Spa. On June 15, 2009 the property was renamed Hotel Wailea Maui. As Black Diamond LLC partner Jon McManus explained at that time, "Inspiration for the name comes from the understated ambiance and elegance of the Wailea resort. Perched 300 feet above the magnificent Wailea community, Hotel Wailea Maui is an inviting hideaway that remembers the era when guests wanted a classy place to stay, maximum privacy and discreet customer service. The 72 suites are being updated with tasteful and comfortable decor to relive that style and complement the resort." Black Diamond Hospitality Investments aimed to reposition the resort as an upscale luxury boutique with world-class spa and restaurant facilities.
