Perfect choice for our 5 nights in Maui. We booked the room through Hotwire and got a decent price. I was a little worried based on reviews of some of the units being dated but wasn't too worried. Our unit was perfect. Large one bedroom unit with balcony overlooking the beach. This condo was literally steps to the beach and perfect location in Southern Maui. Plenty of places to eat nearby, not too far from the airport and a 20-30 minute drive from Lahaina. This was our first time booking a condo as opposed to a hotel and I am so glad we went this route. Our condo rental gave us a more intimate experience of Maui and we truly felt like "locals" sitting on our lawn chairs at night watching the sunset from our "backyard". All of the essentials were here in our room. Cooking supplies, laundry soap & basket, beach towels, etc. Perfect place to stay for our first family trip to Maui. :)

My husband and I decided this vacation to rent a condo, since we did the 4/5 star Sheraton resort last time. I gave this place 5 stars for it 's catagory in condo rental. This place was recently (2 yrs or so) taken over by two different rental mngmt companies. Our rental was VERY clean, and stocked with everyhting you could possible need. The unit's decor was dated, which I would normally knock it down a star, but the location and view made up for that. I am VERY picky about places to stay, but last minute made this our only option if we wanted to go this year. So I risked it, and I have to say, if we came to Maui again this will still be the place that I stay. The condo property is very quite and clean. Mostly snow birds (60yrs+), I think we were the youngest couple(30yrs+) for the week, but everybody was very friendly, and helpful with reccomendation on places to eat or play.

See all

This hotel meets all of our expectations and above…read more They will not as commercial as I assumed most Hawaii hotels are. They upgraded us to a Ocean view and which was totally worth it. In fact, they asked us if we were willing enough to pay $30 per night, which we declined and they offered it for free. Maybe because they had plenty of rooms on this view or maybe they had none of the other view. Irrespective I thought it was totally worth it to even pay that additional amount because you can sit right in your balcony and enjoy the live music every evening from 5:30 to 8:00 p.m. and the vibe is just cool with the pool and sauna. Everything right in front of you along with the ocean view a little further out. They have nice little gushers two water bottles in the room and an additional two that they give out as soon as you check in and a small box off crispy chocolate cookie things which were just awesome. The room service was great as well. On the day of checkout they were nice to tell us that we can use the hospitality room which had very neat showers. Two of them on each of the men's and women's that are complementary to use as long as you want on the day of your checkout and those hospitality rooms were kept clean. . We were in the kai Tower which I believe is newer Tower. They booked this through the Costco travel and felt it was reasonably priced. The beach access is after crossing a street. However, it's convenient enough in the sunset from the that beach is just awesome. It is close to quite a few shopping places, Street vendors, food prices as well

The staff was incredibly friendly, upon check‑in, they welcomed us with a refreshing lavender‑infused towel, a reusable water bottle with refill stations throughout the property, and a cute beach tote to keep. They also offer orchids for the ladies to pin in their hair, which is a charming touch. The rooms were modern, clean, and offered plenty of storage. There are two pools, both kept at a comfortable temperature that makes for a refreshing dip. They allow guests to use the amenities while waiting for their room to be ready, which we appreciated since we arrived early. The hotel also provides free bikes for exploring the area, and there's a happy hour at the pool bar. Overall, we had a wonderful experience and would happily return for another stay.

You have to have a car here to get around, not so in Kaanapali. We enjoy walking around and walking the beaches. You have to drive everywhere to do that here. We have been coming to Maui for over 40 years and enjoy relaxing, going to old and new restaurants and walking the beaches and boardwalks. First time staying here, we won't come again! Pros: Beautiful rooms with very few inconveniences. List in cons! Beautiful pool area and landscaping. Also a few cons! Downtown Kīhei and Wailea not too far my car and more beaches and restaurants to go to. Favorite restaurants: Isana, you can walk to. Beach club, nice staff, good drinks, and great coconut shrimp. Threes, in town, great staff (ask for Josh) and food. Nalu, great for breakfast, lunch or dinner. 30 min walk or short drive. Great happy hour, ahi tacos the best. Monkey pod, but I like the one in Kaanapali best, better views. Salesman Dan Hunter was respectful and informative for our update, not pushy! Beaches nearby: Polo beach, great boardwalk along resorts in Wailea. Keālia Pond National Wildlife Refuge, you can walk the wooden bridge and then the beach. You can walk the beach all along Kīhei, even across the street, it just isn't easy in some areas. Cons: Need a car! The adult pool at the resort was cloudy and dirty from the pigeon's. Never saw them cleaning the pool until we complained the third day. Then they tried to clean it better l, especially after our review and we complained again. They need to do something about the pigeons before it gets better. The other pools were pristine. You rarely see a pool attendant, no help moving chairs or umbrellas. Only the adult pool area have nice comfortable covers, about 25, the rest are very uncomfortable. Wore down crappy cabanas with dirty covers, no TV's working or refrigerators, not that I would use them, but if you have them they should be in working order. Complained to Chanel, day manager who didn't seemed too concerned. She did come down and looked but no feedback expect pool service did seem to improve, just not resolved. The grab and go is really just a small fast food restaurant, no food only drinks. Are room was great except for dirty floors from something they put on them (photo with stain from wet foot). Moldy shower walls (photo). Cabinet in front of sink has a handle I hit my head on each time I wash dishes. Washer very loud!

A special thank you to Shermila, the front desk manager. When the storm affected our plans, she was incredibly friendly, helpful, and able to accommodate us for an additional night in the same room. During what could have been a stressful situation, she made everything much easier for us. We really appreciated her kindness and professionalism. Pros: The staff throughout the property were very friendly and welcoming. The resort did not feel overcrowded, which made for a relaxing stay. Our room was modern, spacious, and comfortable, with a full-size kitchen that was great to have. There are a few areas that could use improvement. Housekeeping could benefit from additional training and attention to detail, as the room cleaning was not as thorough as we would have expected. The patio furniture also appeared as though it had not been cleaned in a very long time, possibly since the property opened. Unfortunately, it was dirty enough that we did not feel comfortable sitting outside and enjoying the patio. Another disappointment was the food situation. The website indicates there is a kitchen on site, but there are actually no restaurants at the property, including by the pool, and there is no real breakfast option. There is a bar across the street with limited hours that serves bar food, as well as a grab-and-go area. We received a coupon for the grab-and-go, but the options with the coupon were extremely limited. We were only able to order a premade McMuffin-style breakfast sandwich, while the other items were not eligible with the coupon. Despite these areas for improvement, we are still giving our stay five stars because of the friendly staff and, most importantly, the way Shermila and the front desk team took care of us during a difficult situation with the storm. That level of service made a lasting impression and was very much appreciated.

We would like to give a shoutout to team members that made our time at the Andaz exceptional: Aaron - breakfast Ka'ana Kitchen Kenji - breakfast Ka'ana Kitchen Chef Rhod - breakfast Ka' ana Kitchen Jeremy - Valet Chase - Lehua Lounge Our child has significant food allergies and the team was accommodating and helpful throughout our stay. Chef Rhod went above and beyond to prep food for Oliver(1.5yo) and we had full confidence in the team and their care with Oliver's allergies. We were upgraded to a Partial Ocean view room. It was standard and met expectations from photos we viewed before the trip. Engineer had to come to help fix some issues with the shower door and two of the sliding door were installing upside down and backward but these issues didn't affect our stay. The room was clean, comfortable and surprisingly quiet for a room located next to the elevator. Check in was a breeze and the valet team were both prompt and friendly. You receive a welcome drink and a lei ( flower for females and kuki nut for males). Amenities were the same as our previous stay. They have activities throughout the day for guests which is nice for families and young kids. Our child loved being by the pool and we spent most of our time there. The beach front access and setups are a huge plus for this property. You can snorkel right off of the beach and see fish and sea turtles. Overall, we had another great experience at the Andaz Maui and will return again in the future.

Seeing the hula dancer and listening to live Hawaiian music is a sweet bonus. Last weekend, there were two weddings here and the property looked beautiful at sunset as the brides were showered with love. And everyone was so happy.

Even though it's expensive, looking back, I don't think about the expense. I think about the experience. The experience is phenomenal!

This is the resort where my daughter had her first Tomahawk steak and I used that picture for my first Yelp profile picture. I replaced it now. She is actually coming to Hi in November, sadly we are now traveling separately... Overall the event was good; an annual competition. 9 contestants today. Food and drinks available, see pictures. Another beautiful resort; it has been a few years since we have been here. My daughter really enjoyed their game room down stairs. We used to spend hours there. Ambiance - A beautiful resort. A sponsor of the Festivals of Aloha Event today. Convenient convention room, plenty of seating. Clean restrooms nearby. Paid valet parking. Or a free parking lot near Monkeypod with a free shuttle. We walked from the Fairmont - Weird, it was a 0.3 mile walk here and a mile walk back. Did I drink too much...? LOL. Restaurant options = Spago Maui, oceanfront Ferraro's Restaurant & Bar, DUO Steak and Seafood, and their latest addition, sushi restaurant KOMO. Spa, game room, fitness center, etc. Service - Good. Price - The event was free. Rooms can start at $1700 (all in) per day for a mid November stay, including taxes and fees of approximately $300 a day. Resort fees are $55 a day, included in the above price. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success since 1961.

There is a free shuttle that travels a mile radius of the hotel. We used it to go to the shopping center and went to the market to get prepared foods to take to the beach. We were going to use it for dinner but it holds 6. All you have to do is ask the front desk and call them when you want to be picked up. The pool was a great find. Very clean and well maintained. The breakfast is very nice and pretty standard self-serve. Good and plentiful. Again, the staff was helpful in getting little things for the family. For what it would cost at the Waldorf, one night there took care of three rooms at the Residence Inn. I'd definitely go back there again.

But the service here was also good, especially the lady that gave us the property tour. Our best and favorite activity was the canoe experience (complimentary, tip please). Turtles would swim up to our canoe, you are not allowed to touch them. Reservations a must, $65 "no show" fee. We have also eaten in ALL of their restaurants and bars, lol. Including their market and cafe... This was only a 2 week stay. Ambiance - A large resort with their own beach with umbrella service. I love the lobby and all the open air spaces. Events and activities; see their website. Spa, 3 pools, water slide, 24 hour gym, dry cleaning, laundry service, courtesy car (please tip), etc. Not sure if wifi is included any more...? You might have to join the loyalty program. Valet parking - $59 a night. Parking changed, from free open parking to paid parking. I see that you are building a kiosk to let cars in and out of your lot. A small pet friendly $40 a day fee. Service - Good. Price - Expensive. But that is the cost for quality & service. $59 daily resort fee. Owner Comment - Congrats on all your success since 1886 and 2001 as Fairmont Hotels & Resorts. I did not know you were a Canadian company. Again, another positive thing about Yelp as I really enjoy learning. 1886 - As Canadian Pacific Hotels. 2001 - As Fairmont Hotels & Resorts.

Beautiful Resort, Wonderful Suites and Exceptional Sushi, but Some Shortcomings…read more We stayed at the Fairmont Kea Lani after spending four nights at the Ritz-Carlton Kapalua, so we had a pretty good opportunity to compare two of Maui's luxury resorts. First, the positives. Our suite was wonderful! Spacious, modern, beautifully appointed, and exceptionally clean, with a separate living room and bedroom. Frankly, the accommodations felt considerably more modern and comfortable than the somewhat dated rooms at the Ritz-Carlton. The fitness center was absolutely spectacular, even better than the excellent gym at the Ritz. The adults-only pool staff were also very friendly. A huge shout-out to Pilina! We enjoyed sushi at the bar twice, and it was absolutely divine--better than what we had at a nearby restaurant supposedly specializing in premium sushi. The staff were equally delightful. Special thanks to the wonderful woman who served us Tuesday evening around 5 p.m. near the open window at the back of the bar, and to John, who took care of us Wednesday. Both were exceptionally warm and welcoming. Kudos to the sushi chef as well! Another refreshing surprise was the complimentary self-parking, just a short walk from the hotel. Compared with the mandatory $65-per-night valet parking at the Ritz-Carlton, this was a welcome change. Now, a few disappointments. We stayed in Room 342, directly above the restaurant. Unfortunately, around 5 a.m., we could hear staff setting up and talking loudly, with the noise echoing into our suite. Not exactly the peaceful morning you'd expect at a luxury resort. The front desk staff were average to good, but the concierge staff came across as rather snooty and unnecessarily pretentious. That attitude seemed completely out of place at an otherwise welcoming resort. The television technology was also surprisingly outdated. No convenient QR-code connection or straightforward way to stream Netflix, and we received conflicting explanations about why things weren't working. And the coffee at the resort market? Absolutely awful, especially at $8-$9 a cup! Even the complimentary coffee in our room was better. Finally, the cabanas at approximately $500 per day seemed excessively expensive and difficult to justify. Overall, the Fairmont Kea Lani is a beautiful resort with excellent accommodations and some genuinely outstanding employees. Pilina was a particular highlight, both for the exceptional sushi and wonderful service. There are definitely areas that need improvement, particularly the early-morning noise and consistency of guest services. But despite those shortcomings, we enjoyed our stay and found plenty to appreciate about the Fairmont.
