Today we're diving into the 'Ikena breakfast buffet at the Grand Wailea Resort in Maui. With its name meaning "view" in Hawaiian, 'Ikena offers some of the most picturesque dining vistas you can find, overlooking the ocean and sky. Set in a luxurious indoor-outdoor venue, this buffet is all about immersing you in Maui's natural splendor while you dine.

Join me as I explore whether 'Ikena lives up to its hefty price tag of $56 for adults and $40 for children. We'll dig into several pressing questions:

- Does the food quality justify the cost?
- Are the local Hawaiian flavors and traditional breakfast staples well balanced?
- With such a variety of foods, does 'Ikena cater well to all dietary needs?
- Ultimately, what sets 'Ikena apart from other luxury breakfast options in Maui?

From the made-to-order omelets to the cream-filled malasadas, and an array of local fruits like dragon fruit and Maui pineapple, we’ll taste it all. And of course, I’ll share the highs and maybe some lows of this dining experience.
