    Very comfortable king bed
    Brett B.

    This place is pretty amazing, it has Air Conditioning, is right on the beach, has laundry facilities, quick elevators, friendly front desk, decent pool, lawn with lounge chairs and outdoor showers. Yes, it's RIGHT next door to the Feast at Lele luau, so you can walk to it, and if your didn't book a table, you can walk the beach and watch the performances. Very walkable to Lahina shops, and your can grab a bus ride to Whalers Village shops. Our unit had a full kitchen and all the beach accoutrements that make your day pleasant, including beach chairs, beach umbrella, and Coleman cooler. The one giant negative for me, is the rocky beach. You can walk out 150 yards and the water will still be up to your stomach, and there are rocks all around you. I caught a case of rock rash, when a wave took me. The cool aspect of this beach is the propensity to see a sea turtle or two, or the occasional sleeping monk seal.

    Old-school and classic Maui residence. Right on the beach. Everything is special. It is clearly the best hotel anywhere in the world that I've ever stayed. Employees and management are superior as well.

    My wife and I have stayed in some really nice places around the world, and we both agree that this is absolutely one of the best. We booked an ocean-view room, and the view was spectacular! The room is equipped with a full kitchen, which was super nice because the restaurants in Lahaina are all way too crowded and way overpriced. We shopped at the local Foodland, prepared our own meals at a fraction of the cost of the restaurants, and ate on the balcony -- enjoying an amazing view while avoiding the frustrations of an hour-long wait for a restaurant table. The grounds are kept immaculate, the rooms are clean and well-appointed, the pool is lovely, the service is warm and friendly. As some have noted, there is a luau every night right next door, but it's really only noisy for about an hour. We slept with the sliding door all the way open, enjoying the sounds of the surf all night long. This place is peaceful and well worth what we paid. One other important note: There literally is zero parking available in Lahaina. the hotel provides an underground parking pass, which was really nice. We left our rental parked nearly our entire trip and simply walked into Lahaina daily, which again saved us loads of frustration.

    Yes! We had a great time. This hotel was perfect. Walking distance from Lahaina front street stores and the boat harbor, 1 min walk to Banyan Tree. The rooms are well equipped and updated (mostly). Pool was nothing special, but that's why we picked this place, we never spend time in the pool anyways and always pay ridiculous prices for amenities we don't use. This place is quiet, great location, sunset view is excellent, great parking, and the staff is very nice. Laundry on every floor. Plus, there was a French press in our room as well as a coffee maker...what?! If you just want a small hotel with walking distance proximity to a lot of cool things, this is it. I get tired of hoofing it through the grounds of the larger resorts to get to my car or room, it bites into my maui time. Note: make sure you bring phone chargers, no USB support in room like other hotels, except on the cable box.

    You can't find a better value on Maui! Please prove me wrong. This is NOT a 5 star resort nor does it have the ammenities of a 5 star hotel. But it is 5+ Star value. I should mention I booked with Hyatt points which was incredibly low for an oceanfront hotel amd am ocesn view room. On top of that there wasn't a resort fee AND parking was free. Check in was fast & easy. Four elevators is more than enough fora small hotel. Was a little nervous walking the halls to the toom as the carpetwas stained but the room was beautiful. Full kitchen including dishwash & full size fridge. Tile flooring which is a must for beach front hotels. The bed was comfortable. The hotel was completely full but never felt that way. The pool is fairly small but there was never more than 3 or 4 people in it besides us. We were able to get in the hot tub a few nights all to ourselves. House keeping came every 3rd day, cleaned & restocked. It was exactly what we needed to relax at the end of our trip.

    View from the lanai on the ocean side--beautiful view of the reef and Lanai Island

    Lahaina Shores Oceanfront Beach Resort was a nice boutique resort in Lahaina. The views are unmatched of the beach, Pacific, reef, Lanai Island, Lahaina Marina, and surf schools. The resort is clean and welcoming with a fresh "facelift" of the exterior. The pool and hot tub were amazing! The grassy area with lounge chairs overlooking the beach provided a nice, calm respite. The beach was nice for walks while searching for sea glass and snorkeling around the reef was fantastic. We even saw a Hawaiian Monk Seal frolicking along the waters edge. We enjoyed watching the beautiful sunset from the lanai or the lounge chairs. We also enjoyed listening to the luau next door each night. When we visit Maui again, we will definitely stay at Lahaina Shores Oceanfront Beach Resort!

    If all of the Hyatt owned establishments were lined up next to each other and location had nothing to do with the score of their review, the. This "resort" would be at the bottom of the list. I have been a Hyatt Globalist for several years and this is the worst building anywhere in the world with a Hyatt name on it. The staff are rude and lazy except the concierge , he was helpful. The rooms are full of cockroaches and the beds are so horrible I hardly slept in a week. The parking garage is dripping sewage from the ceiling and nobody seems to care. They claim that this is a resort but it's more of an overpriced AirBnB. They have Zero food and drinks on property so don't expect room service or even water. Every time you speak to the front desk they remind you when your checkout day ii, almost to rush you out. I would not suggest staying here unless you're look in my for the least amount of amenities and most overpriced on Maui.

    This is the perfect place to stay, right on the beach in Lahaina and with the best staff. Alison was my favorite the staff were all fabulous but Alison was the best. The location is phenomenal right on front street where all the stores and restaurants are and right on the beach. Our room was perfect and clean. Coffee was provided daily and the rooms were cleaned as often as we needed it. Everyone here is kind and hospitable. Thank you Hyatt Lahaina Shores Beach Resort.

    Mountain View should be called sunrise view - gorgeous mornings

    I booked in April and since all the Kàanapali resorts were full, this was our only Hyatt option. At the time, I was convinced we were settling. This is a really special spot. The hotel is clean and responsive to any requests. The beach is 30 feet from the back door and a side gate leads to the little shopping center right next door. We strolled into town daily for a coffee, breakfast, submarine ride, surf lesson, photos with the massive banyan tree. Unlike the huge resort place (we visited the resorts down the road and saw a screaming match between two drivers trying to park in a cramped parking garage in Kaanapali), we got to mingle a bit with local residents, see the scenery. It's a short drive to a full size grocer and the cocoa farm or sugar museum tours. The aquarium was a 10-minute drive away. Finally, one member of our group lost her designer wallet. Full of cards, cash, etc. We'd flown home, she'd torn the house up for a week looking for it, when we got a call from Lahaina Shores. Housekeeping was cleaning the room from the folks after us and found the wallet behind furniture. The hotel mailed it back to us. Every single card and all of the cash was still there. No weird charges on any of the cards. These are quality folks and we can't wait to come back.

    We booked this through Costco Travel and the value was great since it was in an ideal location - had laundry facilities, free WiFi, private beach, was in walkable distance restaurants and shops, easy to get onto the main highway, and our room had its own kitchen and private balcony. The only complaint we have is that the shower was hard to contain - glass covered only half the shower so water was getting all over the bathroom floor despite how careful we were. We also found a stain on one of our clean towels. Other than that, we had a good stay and would recommend it to others!

    This was my first time visiting Maui and I stayed here because I got a deal on Costco I did not know that this was going to be such a great experience when visiting the other end of Maui I realize that this is such a small boutique hotel and not filled with tons of tourists which I love the pool was never crowded the Jacuzzi was never crowded we had our ownPrivate beach area the staff was amazing and accommodating and the view outside of my balcony was priceless I had my own kitchen the ocean waves I could hear from my balcony they put me to sleep every night the hotel is right next-door to the best luau feast at Le le which you can drink unlimited and then walk back to your hotel. The hotel is also super close to everything walking distance to shops there's a secret bar next door

    634 corner room with partial ocean view
    Benjamin P.

    Stayed 3 nights here mid summer. Booked on a Travelocity package with my flight and car rental. I wanted to be further North on the coast, but the pricing here made it too good for me to not consider. It's definitely the farthest south on this coast. All ships, restaurants, and other resorts are north of this location. I realised that Maui is definitely a very car rental dependent tropical island. Everything is more spread out than I was anticipating. The location is still decent. Just a 5 minute walk from all the shops and restaurants. They have an 8 ft deep pool between the resort and small beach. The beach runs behind all the business on the coast and is technically public to anyone. They also have a hot tub. To get access from the beach, you need to use your key card. Never really saw anyone on the beach as it is very small. Hotel is 7 floors high. We got what I would consider the 2nd best room in the whole place. Room 634. We paid for mountain view (a lot less than ocean view), but lucked out with the corner room that has a balcony on both corners and a partial ocean view. The only room I think would be better would be the room kiddy corner to the opposite side on the 6th floor. They would have an ocean view and partial mountain view. The 7th floor, looking from the outside, does not extend the full length of the building, so there wasn't anyone above us. Room is clean and spacious. Bed is comfy. Full kitchen was nice and helped us save extra $$. Shower worked well and provided an nice temp. Towels were not too scratchy. They give you both bath and beach towels. We got a nice logo beach bag upon arrival as well. Parking is conveniently located underground next door. Always found a spot easily, but it is a bit cramped under there. Front desk staff and concierge were very friendly and efficient. I only used the concierge once to rent snorkel gear, but we decided to rent from in town as it would be cheaper. One of my only small gripes was that housekeeping replaced my bath towel that I had on the rack. They even say to put the towel on the floor to have it replaced. I wrote them a note about this and how it is not energy efficient. For the price, I was pretty happy with my stay and would certainly recommend this hotel to anyone on a budget that still wants to be close to the action.

Well appointed with the latest games including VR, air hickey and even bowling. The resort is conveniently located right next to Whalers Village. A short 3 minute walk. Our room was well appointed with all the ammenities that you would expect from the Westin brand. From thick bath towels and The Heavenly bedding to ice cold A/C. This resort has it all. Our experience was made even better by the exceptional and most sincere service provided by Miss. Giadee Kaiwi Hōkūpa'a Experience Coordinator. She made our visit that much better with her warm smile and pleasant attitude. A true ambassador to the Westin name.

My girlfriend (ex) and I went here and Jim and Kim Wicker, who run the place and live downstairs, were perfect hosts and even lent us a tour CD that guided us along the infamous Road To Hana. Sure there are hotels right on the beach, but you wont have to dodge screaming kids running through the halls dripping from the pool or ocean, or worry about noise from shared walls. Instead you get peace and comfort. You may also get surprise fresh made treats now and then, that Kim bakes up and leaves for you on the counter after cleanup. Wai Ola is plenty close to everything. You're about 1/2 mile from the ocean and all the Lahaina hot spots. If you plan on going to Lahaina, Maui Hawaii, Try this place and you'll be very pleased.

The cost was great; it was about the price of a hotel, but you get a pool, use of laundry facilities, you can borrow the coolers and beach stuff they have, and you get fresh baked treats. The only caveat is they have an extensive list of rules, and the owners can come across a little snarky in the enforcement of them. Like the pool can only be used at this time and that time, or you can't put stuff on the chairs by the pool, or the laundry hours are from this time to that time. They do it to create a relaxing and enjoyable environment for all the guests, and it works, but I think if they were just a bit less rigid and militant, people would still mind the rules and they wouldn't seem so aggressive. Overall it's a great alternative to a hotel, and if you like to buy your own food and plan your day according to your needs, not those of a hotel, this is the place for you. Star Market supplied the lau lau and poke, we borrowed some movies from Kim and Jim, and stayed in one afternoon, a welcome break from the activity on our 10 day Hawaii honeymoon.

I was hoping to stay in the Napili Tower, mainly because I liked the pool area better--longer, more spread out, and largely oceanfront. That said, the Lahaina Tower ended up having its own perks. The biggest one is that it's right next to the self-parking structure that's used for the whole resort, which makes coming and going incredibly easy. If you're staying in the Napili tower, self-parking is all the way on the other side and I would recommend using valet instead to save you the walk. Our room was spacious and comfortable, technically "oceanfront," though it felt more like oceanview. Still, no complaints--the view was lovely, and the room itself had a convenient kitchenette with a fridge, sink, and all the basics (plates, utensils, etc.), which made snack time quick and easy. The Lahaina Tower also has its own smaller pool area, plus a few fun extras like ping pong and foosball. It's also right by Longhi's, if you're looking for an easy meal. If you want more action, the main pool area--with the large, winding pool and additional dining options--is just a short walk away. The weather during our stay wasn't the best--it was actually pretty chilly by Maui standards following the heels of two major storms--but we still had a great time. Between the comfortable room, convenient location, and easy access to everything on property, it made for a relaxed and low-effort getaway. While the resort may not be the newest, we really like the main pool area. I'll definitely opt for the Lahaina/Napili towers again next time. This is a great resort, especially for families looking for a laid-back Maui stay with nice views and plenty to do.

    Maui Ocean Club - Beautiful Resort with a Few Pricey Spots…read more Stayed at the Maui Ocean Club and overall had a great experience. The property has everything you could possibly need -- pools, beach access, restaurants, shops, BBQ grills, valet parking and activities all within walking distance. It's a perfect spot for relaxing and enjoying the island without ever having to leave the resort. That said, some common items are definitely overpriced, and you can find better deals just a short walk or drive away. Still, the $50 all-you-can-drink option (coffee, tea, juice, and soda) was absolutely worth it -- super convenient and a great value for resort guests who want unlimited refills throughout the day good for the entire stay. Beautiful grounds, friendly staff, and an unbeatable location right on Kaanapali Beach. Just be prepared to spend a little more for the convenience.

    Makai Sunset Inn - Ocean View

    Makai Sunset Inn

    (4 reviews)

    My boyfriend and I recently stayed at the Makai Sunset Inn for five nights. I had booked the hotel…read morethrough Southwest Airlines' website, and received Southwest Rapid Rewards miles for staying there. Maui is the most expensive of the Hawaiian Islands and we wanted something somewhat affordable that was a step up from a youth hostel. We are too old to be sharing bathrooms! Here are the Pros and Cons to this hotel: PROS: 1. The hotel manager was very kind. We were checking in late, so he taped an envelope with my info on the office window. He also repaired our shower drain, which wasn't draining properly. 2. Our room had a full kitchen. 3. Great location, in walking distance to a few restaurants. 4. Laundry facilities available on site, for $1.00 to wash and $1.00 to dry. 5. Ocean views from second floor balcony. 6. Cozy sitting area near sea wall. 7. Free beach equipment (boogie boards, coolers, etc) to borrow, as well as beach towels. CONS: 1. No A/C in our room. I didn't think that would be a problem, since there were nice ocean breezes, but our room got very hot, even with a ceiling fan and a floor fan blowing. I had a hard time sleeping. 2. Very thin walls. We could hear our neighbor in his bathroom at 5 am. 3. Tiny bugs in the kitchen and bathroom. They were everywhere. 4. Tight parking spots. Luckily, we had rented a compact car. 5. No beach access. That being said, in Hawaii by law, there are no private beaches. Every hotel and resort must provide a specified number of beach access parking spots. We visited the beach at the Hyatt Regency Resort and parked there for free. 6. No TV in the room. This didn't really bother us, however, since we were too busy to watch TV most of the time, anyway. Overall, we had a good stay, but we will splurge for a hotel with A/C next time.

    You know those charming little hotels in Paris? Where you have coffee in the courtyard and…read morecroissants? But can also hear your neighbors banging around on top of you and walking in. Makai Sunset sun is just like that. If you want to wake up early and bring your coffee outside to greet the day (coffee from your little kitchen) come here. Not crowded. Green curtains with orange poms. Chairs by the sea wall overlooking the ocean. At night you can sleep with the windows open, listening to the ocean. Pros: charming and really close to the ocean. Kitchen with a refrigerator, toaster, coffee maker, hot water maker, dishwasher and tiny stove. Microwave. Cons: road noise and people noise although a lot of the people staying here seem to be older and they're not super noisy. No pool on the property.
