Lots of people showed up in Cosplay costumes for judging and prizes. Glad to finally visit this historic place.

Other than that was an amazing concert very intimate and the sound carried beautifully!!

You have to admire all the hard work that goes into planning and executing a film festival such as…read morethis. It's been a really great addition to the movie/film scene on Maui which is otherwise pretty basic and limited to Hollywood offerings. Barry Rivers is the driving force who has created this showcase event to bring us lesser known features and short films from around the world. Every year the Film Festival never disappoints. With a variety of screen venues that range from classic theatre to sandy beach, there's a time and place for everyone. Locations vary too, to encompass South Maui and Central Maui. The Celestial Cinema is an experience to remember - watch a double feature under the stars! In addition to a fantastic line up of films, the festival also offers deluxe events and celebrity gatherings in Wailea. After twenty years of bringing the goods, this festival has really blossomed into a beautiful flower to adorn Maui's entertainment scene. They have a helpful website where you can watch trailers and learn more.

Tonight was no exception, especially as the service was excellent. We were looked after by a young gentleman server who had exquisite manners and his busser who was on his first night kept our water glasses topped up and looked after us 100%. What a team! The band playing tonight was rather good too, crooner songs, which accompanied the waves under the floorboards. I can definitely recommend the Caesar Salad with seared Ahi, delicious! It is worth going on lobster night and pre ordering your lobster, then having fun cracking it open.

This review is for the social hall. The complex also includes tennis courts, and a gymnasium…read more While I haven't organized any parties here, I've attended a few. This is the community center for the west side. The building is not climate-controlled. I've been to parties only at night when its cooler, so I'm not sure how it is during the day in the severe Lahaina sun. The kitchen area seems adequate in size. The main hall is pretty spacious and fits between 200-300 people. There's an outdoor kitchen that most parties use as a bar. The bathrooms are close by and are clean. Parking is adequate on either side of the hall.

Baldwin was an interesting character, reading up about the man and his family before visiting will help you get an in depth understanding of what you are seeing. It is the only remaining house of a row of such houses on Front Street. Volunteers give you a tour and if you ask nicely they will give you time to go around yourself after so you can study things in greater detail. The tour is the downstairs rooms only as the upstairs rooms are offices for the Lahaina Restoration Foundation who look after all of Lahaina's historical sites. Remember the cost for entry goes directly to helping keep the building maintained for the future so everyone can share in Maui's heritage and history ;)

I didn't hear a note out of place. Most of the female singers in the show were excellent. The males left something to be desired. There did seem to be some sound issues though, especially when the first male lead was talking and singing. It sounded like he was in a box. There were also times that some mics were on when they shouldn't have been, and some mics off when they should have been on. The guest featured dancer was an amazing tapper. He had at least six solos, was great fun to watch, and got the audience cheering and clapping. The main reasons for four stars instead of five were the sound issues. If you get an opportunity to see this great orchestra, don't pass it up!

The place was okay. It's listed as two bedrooms, but it is only one bedroom with a loft upstairs…read more The floor was dirty. It was not well kept or well clean for the fees that they charged to stay here. The shower curtain liner was stained or molded and the hooks to hold it were broken or too small for the rod that was holding it. There is very little amenity. They only provided one trash bag and the trash can was dirty. The sofa bed has no sheet for use. The deck was not swept. The laundry washer has sand in it. The swimming pool has so many leaves that no one cleans. The resort is in the prime location, but the upkeep of the resort is lacking and the fees that were charged were high for what was provided as amenity.

First let me give you some background info. My wife and I are in our early 70's…read more We live in California, but are no stingers to Maui, and have been to all the Hawaiian Islands several times for for the past 35 years. We feel we are fairly good judges of what people are seeking so we would like to share our experiences with the Kamale Beach Club. Our visit was from 4 20 24 to 4/27|24. Weather was low 80's in the days and mid to high 60' in the evening with little to no rain... (perfect)! Ok so what are we looking for when going to the islands? First of all location location... Right? Well I have to say KBC (Kamaole Beach Club) fits this request perfectly! From our lanai I could throw a rock to the ocean... really! You are basically a few 100 feet to the water. So yes ocean view is real! Everything conveniently located. Ok now for the grounds and the condition of the buildings. The KBC scores a 5 star rating here also. The grounds are impeccable! In fact one morning I saw tourist taking pictures of the flowers on the property... Yes it is that nice! The buildings are older say late 60's but are well painted and NO bugs!! Now this was impressive! Except for a few Geckos running around no bugs... not even a fly or mosquito. Ok now we drive up to the office which is in the parking lot of the property. The office is extremely small with only a sliding door as an entry. You would think the office personal would be grumpy working in such a small cramped space but, what we found was exactly the opposite. Suzie and Patti were amazingly friendly and helpful to all our questions and needs. In fact we were in need of a small ice chest to take with us to drive the road to Hana and Suzie loaned us her own personal one. Now who does that? Amazing service! Ok now for my next request... Parking!! The parking is FREE!! And we parked maybe 20 steps from our front door. Now I don't know about you but my wife uses every bit of the 50lbs limit the airlines gives you and of course she makes sure my suitcase has to equal hers... so that short walk sure was nice. We were on the first floor so you guys on the upper floors be aware there are no elevators. The locks/keys are the old paddle type but they give you a lock box on your door incase you lose your key or lock yourself out. This was a nice idea. The rooms are spacious as most of the older building are of that era, but be aware there is no central AC. At least in our room. You do have two AC portable units. One in the bedroom and one in the living room. Honestly we did not use them for we were gone most of the days. When we were in we just left the front door open (there is a heavy duty screen door) and the back patio door open. The way the buildings are situated the ocean breeze sweeps through the rooms keeping things nice and comfy. There are also quiet decorative ceiling fans in each one of those rooms to move the air. Speaking about quiet we did not hear other guest. You know the ones slamming the doors at 2am of kids running ramped past your door. This place was amazingly quiet. The water pressure (another pet peeve coming from CA) was plentiful with lots of pressure and you have your own hot water tank! The furnishing along with dishes and cookware were aged but serviceable and, a full size new refrigerator/ ice maker made it nice to stock it up for the week. Now I did read other reviews and people if you are going to give this wonderful beach front (cottage) the white glove test it is most likely going to fail by your standards. Leave those gloves at home! This is Maui! Embrace the area, the food, the ocean, and most importantly the people and, have a great time! We totally loved it here and are anxious to return in the near future!
