The program is available daily from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. for kids ages 3 to 12. After a day of play at Camp Hyatt, each child receives Family Camp Adventures at Hyatt Regency Maui, a travel journal packed with fun activities for children and their parents. The journal spotlights activities from spa services such as a manicure in a private oceanfront cabana to surfing or sailing lessons off Ka anapali shore, available through the resort s beach activity desk. Free wildlife tours are held three times a week. During the one-hour walking tour, kids get acquainted with the wild personalities of the resort s animal family including penguins, swans, ducks and flamingos.
Children can play games such as call and response with an East African crowned crane named Spike.
During the winter sails, whales are frequently seen, and sea turtles are spotted year round. Special rates are available for children, age 13 or under. Another must-do for families with kids of all ages is Tour of the Stars, Hyatt Regency Maui s rooftop astronomy program. Maui s heavenly views of planets, collapsing stars and supernovas are seen through Big Blue, the resort s high powered 16-inch telescope. In July 2000, the resort opened Spa Moana, Hawaii s first oceanfront spa.
