Maui Revealed: "We just got back from a one week Maui vacation (our first time to the island) and we used your book, Maui Revealed' like a bible. We found it most entertaining, especially when we traveled the Hana 'heart failure' highway. We stayed in Hana in a rental house on the mountainside and found enough to keep us entertained the entire time - between all the local sites and the closeness of others - thanks to you. You did a great job on the book and thank you for making our vacation so much more enjoyable!" |
Ka'anapali Shores (877) 997-6667 or (808) 667-2211 3445 Lwr. Honoapiilani Rd.
463 units, 2 pools, 2 spas, 3 lighted tennis courts, 2 shops, game room, elevator, free hi-speed Internet access in rooms, free Wi-Fi hotspots around resort, air conditioning, daily maid service, fitness center, beauty salon, sauna, massage area, restaurant, washer/dryer in 1/1s and 2/2s only, wedding coordinator. Built in 1980, many of the units (in Aston rental pool) had their bathrooms and kitchens replaced in 2009. The main building is 9 stories high, and you need to get above 4 or 5 floors in some units before the good views kick in due to blocking vegetation. The best views are from the 4-story “low rise” units as they overlook the ocean with Moloka‘i in the background. The wedding gazebo offers pretty good privacy for those with nuptials on their minds, and photos from there should have a pretty background. They have a nice fitness center, but you have to pay to use it. (Most resorts give that to you for free.) Their keiki program has day sessions for $25 a pop and includes luncha very good deal (but limited days). They charge $9 to park, a particularly annoying fee. (Rant alert: Since nearly every visitor to Maui has a car, wouldn’t it be better if these resorts simply raised the room prices rather than make you feel gouged for parking? OK, end of rant.) There’s a supermarket across the street. Local calls are $1, and room safes are $2.60. The hotel-type rooms are tiny, have a queen bed and a coffee maker (during the remodel they oddly decided to remove the fridge), but all the others have complete kitchens. Most rooms are sold as packages, so odds are you’ll pay a lot less than published rates. We hope so, because the rack rates are overpriced. Spartan 225 sq. ft. hotel-type rooms (which don’t have lanais) are $314, studios (600 sq. ft.) are $366, 1/1s (717805 sq. ft.) are $401$535, 2/2s (9641,364 sq. ft.) are $701$884, suites (2,005 sq. ft.) are $954. Those rack rates are way high, but few pay them. |
