Great Vacation

The Hotel was nice. Had everything you need. Nice room, nice service, nice pools, right by the beach. Very convenient for location going to near by hot spots. We enjoyed our stay. We will use this condo again.

Great Location, Great view!

The hotel is on the beach in Ka'anapali, right next to an excellent snorkeling spot. The staff is friendly and helpful. Our room was large for a studio with a full kitchen, dining area and nice view of the ocean. It would have been great to have a lanai we could sit out on, ours was only deep enough to stand at the rail. The location is good, toward the end of the Ka'anapali area, easy to get in and out of. We did a lot of walking, hiking and snorkeling. The hotel provides an ice chest, it's styrofoam but works great. We took it with us everywhere, used the icemaker in the refrigerator to fill it with ice, packed our lunches and snacks. Great way to keep costs down and also not get stuck out in the middle of nowhere with no food. There is a free shuttle that goes between the Ka'anapali hotels and the Whalers Village where there is shopping and restaurants and also a connection to the Maui bus service. There is a nice cafe/bar at the hotel, prices are reasonable, food is good. However, it would have been nice to have more restaurant choices around the hotel. Overall we had a good experience at the hotel and would stay there again.

Not bad!

Very friendly staff! Great location on the shoreline, steps to a really great beach. Some new construction going on, sometimes a mite noisy, but we just walked to beach and had quiet. On-site restaurant had very friendly staff, good food.

Clean and very family oriented

The studio was large, clean and equiped with everything we needed. The balcony was huge. The grills were very nice (looked new). The grounds were very well kept as well as the pools. The beach was the best! They could not have a better location as far as beaches go. We will return.

Family Retreat Home

We felt at home. They care about you and how your stay is going. The surroundings are comfortable, well kept and welcoming. Loved the new outdoor grills and table. Looking forward to seeing the new lobby. The only thing I wished for was transportation to the local supermarket since I didn't rent a car.

Best Stay Thus Far!

We always stay at the Aston Kaanapali Villas and this is by far the best stay we've ever had there. The location was centrally located between Lahaina and Kapalua. Easy access to many beaches!

Whaler's Village is only a mile and half away. The beach walk is enjoyable. There's also a shuttle to the shopping and dining.

Great place for an overnighter or a week

We arrived late and checked out early, but there was always someone at the front desk ready to take care of us. The first time we stayed there they even gave us a box of chocolates and some bottled water. Although they didn't offer that the second time, we still enjoyed the great service, clean room, great location, and even the restaurant was good.

Excellent Experience

Very nice Hotel/Condo setup. Room was like being at home. Fully equipped kitchen with dishes, pots and pans. Excellent location right on the beach. Only one complaint, being smokers we have no problem with not smoking in the room. We do not smoke in our own home, but in the entire facility there is only one smokers area and it is across the parking lot and consists of a two person park bench sitting at the edge of the joggers trail. Heck of a place to put a smoking area!! Would highly recommend this Hotel!!
