Stayed 4 nights at the Aston, was fantastic. Rooms were spacious and had everything you could ask for. In a great position, with restaurants and shops just over the road, including a Times Supermarket. Also a nice food truck park next door. Pools were great, and plenty of activities for the kids. Would recommend.

we had a nice one bedroom with view of ocean. the furnishings were all very nice, the bed was a little tired, could use a new bed. Some units come with a queen bed or king, so be sure to request a king. Bathroom sufficient, granite countertops, and all new appliances and cabinets in the kitchen. The Beach club restaurant does a good job too with dinners and drinks. Pools are nice too. There is no beach to speak of, but that didn't bother us.

Room service was wonderful and the staff was very helpful. We planned several excursions through the trip advisor staff in place at the resort. Great experience! We requested an upgrade and they accommodated us to room with a nice view.

715richardh (Colorado Springs, Colorado) 04/12/2019

The facility is tired, but okay. The good point is the kitchenette is adequate, and supplied with plates, utensils etc. The maids did a good job, and were friendly. So was Michael in Engineering. Other than that, horrible. Employees avoided looking at guests. At the pool, great opportunity to serve guests sitting by the pool. But no, they only deliver, and walk past anyone who might want to order. I was to get two credits (long story), but the clerk 'neglected' to apply the credits to the bill. So much for appreciation. Unruly guests were yelling in the pool for nearly two hours, and no one asked them to observe the hotel rules and be quiet. Inconsiderate. They're all about selling what they have to offer (excursions, luaus and such) but miss many opportunities at providing services to their guests (food and drinks, with a smile?).

We recently stayed for 8 nights here and had stayed here 12 yrs ago. The grounds and amenities are awesome! We stayed on the penthouse floor room 929, the views are fantastic!! We booked all our excursions thru the concierge, Lei was super and all the outings were 10+ she puts on a daily info meeting at 8:30am to go over all the things to do, highly recommend this. We took the scuba class in the pool with James Brown and ended up going for a ocean dive that same day!!! Was awesome, James does a great job!!! I took 2 yoga classes and were also great!!! All the staff are super friendly and helpful. Only one small complaint is they have the room sliding door set up with a sensor and you have to make sure they are closed correctly or the A/C doesn't come on, we had some issues with ours but the maintenance guy, Warren was super and took care of it . Other than that a great place to stay, very family friendly and the ocean front location is perfect. Can't wait to come back for our 3rd visit. ALOHA :)

TropicalDreamer8888 (Salem, Oregon) 04/18/2019

Currently staying in unit # 1119, a 1-bedroom premium ocean view. Based on reviews we were somewhat nervous about what the condition of the room would be. This unit is just great for our purposes! It’s large, airy & has a decent amount of storage even though a significant number of drawers & closets are locked off for the owner. The unit is somewhat updated with granite counters in the kitchen & bath, decent appliances & sufficient pots, pans, & utensils for most cooking purposes. On the other hand, the living room furniture is old style tropical rattan and not very comfortable. I’m also not a big fan of the carpet in the living room & bedroom, even though it seems clean. Although this isn’t a 5-star unit, everything is clean, and the bed is comfortable. The OUTSTANDING part of our stay has been the staff. A few things here and there have needed repair & all it took to resolve each issue was a quick call to the front desk. Unbelievably great, TIMELY service. Some of the other things I like are the attention to security, how immaculate the grounds are, & the quick access to the beach & beachwalk. We are glad we rented through Aston rather than directly from an owner, as we appreciate the daily housekeeping & that toilet paper, paper towels, & hand, dish & dishwasher soap are provided (unlike most condos we’ve rented.)

luvstotravel2 04/16/2019

Beautiful, large, airy condominium with excellent view. Every amenity you can think of in the unit. Ever changing view each day of the ocean and Black Rock point, and mountain view provided beautiful rainbows during short, misty showers. Enjoyed our stay and will return.

V9513PHalexg (Ka'anapali, Hawaii) 04/13/2019

The Aston was very nice- great beach access with a really nice partial view of the ocean from a small balcony! Each unit is privately owned so the decor probably differs from room to room. Towel service at the pool was really nice! We would stay here again, though I think it’s a little less fancy then some of the neighboring hotels. It was great to have our own small kitchen!

RKCDVM0409 (Oceanside, California) 04/09/2019

DO NOT RENT EITHER OF THESE UNITS. I rented both of these units for a week, for my wife and I and for my son and his girlfriend. One of the primary reasons for staying at a beach front condo/hotel is that we like to leave our balcony door open at all times to hear the ocean waves and feel the ocean breezes. Needless to say, it is also very enjoyable to sit on the balcony and enjoy this experience. However, this side of the condo building abuts up against “The Whaler Village”, which includes a number of restaurants and retail shops directly below. Though we were well above the outdoor mall (9th floor – Units 963 and 965), we could not hear the ocean, at all, because of the constant (24/7) din of the ventilation systems from the businesses below. It was lovely hearing birds chirping at 6:15am but they were interrupted almost every morning by trucks, backing up to make their deliveries to the businesses below. We have stayed in the Whaler Resort, three or four times previously, including a stay several floors directly these two units. (We’ve always loved The Whaler). We have never experienced this. Upon checking out, I was asked by a front desk staff member about our stay. I explained how awful the sound was and that we had never encountered that before at the Whaler. The staff member explained that a number of trees, between our condo building and the restaurants/shops next door had been removed, because they blocked some of the view for the lower units. However, now, there is nothing muffling the noise from the ventilation systems below. The only remedy is to stay on the north side of Tower 2 or either side of Tower 1. This noise factor should be disclosed to potential guests staying in units on the south side of Tower 2 and the unit should be heavily discounted because of it. Otherwise, you will be paying a premium amount of money for a far less than satisfactory experience. Note: I should mention that aside from the noise issue on the south side of Tower 2, I would give the Whaler an excellent rating.

ez_in_australia (Victoria, Australia) 04/08/2019

Stunning location - those Hawaiian sunsets are truly something else. Rooms are ridiculously well equipped, made for an enjoyable stay being able to prepare meals in the room as the restaurants on offer int he area all sold the same food. The hotel also has a BBQ area, which was fabulous. The pool is right next the beach - best of both worlds. Staff could not have been more accommodating. Would definitely recommend a stay if you're heading to Maui.

FORTIN225 (West Kelowna, Canada) 04/20/2019

My wife and I just finished our 9 night stay at this location, and really did not have much negative to say. We started our trip out in the tower in a single bedroom with kitchen, and after 2 very loud mornings with the room next to us under construction we requested to be moved. The staff was very good and accommodating to our request and had us moved by the afternoon. This resort is really in a great location because you have a very sandy beach out front if you don't really want to snorkel just stand in the water, then about 200 ft down the beach is more of a coral, rock beach that we spent allot of time at and 9/10 times saw a turtle or two and lots of fish! The trolly that runs I am guessing every 10 minutes is nice if you want to hop from resort to resort for dinner etc. or shopping ! This location has two pools, one is very obvious towards the beach, this one you have buy all drinks from the cafe/restaurant there and is very busy usually... the other pool is too your left on the drive into the resort and is more of a garden pool.. very quiet, warm pool, and we just brought our own drinks here like everyone else. Our only real negatives were both rooms had terrible beds, they were crazy old spring and hurt the backs, and the hand full of cockroaches found in our room was a little bit of a put off. We will be coming back here the price, location, and staff were all very nice to deal with :) Thank you

Shar A 04/17/2019

We stayed in 502 too . The cabinets were old, furniture worn , and no door for the one bedroom advertised??? I was in this unit wiry my senior parents and two teenager daughters. No privacy. Seriously it has no door separating the living room. There is no balcony in this tower so if your from Canada and hoping to sit out side for your meal you can’t. It’s just open windows that are big for light. In the end , The hotel was actually perfect for my family. Location is 100% on board walk , beach best in world, and having a bar for fancy drinks was fun for the moms and kids. It has a trolly that comes by to take you to whalers village and all the other fancy hotels. Again nice that our hotel was included - my kids and parents loved that. It was free but of course kind of you tip the driver. Front end staff very very good at their job - free clean towel every day . They have a bottle of champagne to my folks for celebrating their 59 wedding anniversary - so sweet. The free Mia tais entertainment was nice too ! We will be back just staying in a different room 😊😊 .

Ladychecca (London, United Kingdom) 04/13/2019

The location is fantastic and also the staff. Unfortunately, we had some cockroaches for 2 nights. The staff called immediately the pest controller, but the problem persisted. I am quite disappointed that when we left no one apologised for this inconvenient and they didn’t ask if we wanted to change the apartment. I can understand we are in a island, but for this reason the organisation should pay more attention and also should take more care of clients.

jonToronto (Scottsdale, Arizona) 04/12/2019

This is a partially unfair review as I never did see my room. I arrived at the hotel after a long flight and when arriving I was deeply disappointed by the state of the property generally. It is old and run down. It is listed as a four star at trip advisor but I see it as a two star. It was somewhat unkept and as I was staying for 8 nights felt it would put a damper on my relaxation. As I said I did not see the room but the property seemed rundown. The staff enforced the two day penalty which I found disappointing as well as if there product does not stand up they should not charge for it. Will not book an Aston property again. I went to the Hyatt which had wonderful staff unlike this hotel

Cruiser783238 04/10/2019

The room was excellent - newly renovated and complete with a kitchen and dishwasher. Had great view of the garden and a huge lanai. The beach accessibility was just awesome - just a minute walk from our room which enabled us to view the awesome sunset on all days of our stay. The beach towels were clean and always available. Tea/Coffee available in the morning. I took away one star only because though the property was non smoking there was some guest smoking in some room and whenever we came back to our rooms we could smell the smoke. We did mention this to the front desk but not sure if they could figure out because we experienced this throughout our stay except on the last day. I wish guests abide by the rules of the place that they visit! Otherwise, the place was great and castaway cafe was quite good too. Housekeeping was great!

Beverly W 04/07/2019

Maui was on my bucket list because of the whales. I’m not sure we could have found a better place to se them. All of the rooms face the channel between Maui, Lanai and Molokai. We saw whales every single day! Sometimes close, sometimes farther away, but mission accomplished. The plexiglass railings made it easy to watch any whale activity. The hotel’s grounds are beautiful and very well maintained. Hotel staff was very friendly and helpful. The kitchen and bathroom were a bit on the small side but had everything you would need. If you wanted to you could easily just have your meals in the room. We really appreciated the washer/dryer since we stayed for 2 weeks. The hotel is well located, close to Lahaina and other shopping and restaurant areas. We also booked through Costco and were very happy with our choice.

Bev751 (Canada) 04/07/2019

Walked into suite and first word was "wow". The view is incredible. Right on the water with floor to ceiling glass. Very private lanai. The apartment has all you need. Bbq's on site. Pool is quiet (and small). Expedia rep on site to arrange tours etc. and very knowledgeable. Access boardwalk by parking lot for a beautiful walk on the water. Free parking. It is a quiet resort and seems to have a mature clientele. We booked through Costco and package included room, flight and car. Worked out well.

BigdawgChicago (Northbrook, Illinois) 04/04/2019

I chose this hotel because I wanted a real ocean view. This hotel has that !! Each room is as close to the ocean as any hotel can get. When I checked in and was given a room on the second floor I was disappointed because I wanted to be higher up. It turned out the second floor was great because you are very close to the surf. At night I kept the large sliding glass door open in the bedroom and it sounded like the waves were crashing into the room. I loved it. I was upgraded to a renovated one bedroom which had a very recent updated kitchen and two bathrooms. The room was super quiet. WIFI was good. My only criticism is that the televisions could be larger. No charge for parking that was always available. I would definitely come back for the real ocean view.

LTnLV (Las Vegas, Nevada) 03/31/2019

I had stayed here one time previously and I think it is the best place to stay during whale season. The oceanfront location, floor to ceiling windows and generous lanai make it perfect for whale spotting. I had booked a 1 bedroom 2 bath Premium like I had before but luckily got a free upgrade to a 2 bedroom 2 bath on the 9th floor. I had made this reservation based on a fantastic Cyber Monday offer I got from Aston.Staying with the Aston group here and at Kaanapali Shores several times previously, and signing up for Aston A-list insider, seems to be worth it! This particular unit, 901, was really beautiful. Being an end unit, the views were incredible. Housekeeping comes in every day and very discreetly cleans and replaces what you have used. You get a 10% discount coupon for the Beach Club restaurant at Kaanapali Shores. It’s a short walk and still has the best Mac Nut pancakes for breakfast on the island...in my opinion. This is a quiet place and is populated by mostly adults...very few children. The pool area does not have the kid friendly features like slides, etc as some of the nearby resorts do...so I think it appeals to different demographic. If you are looking for quiet, beatiful, oceanfront luxury, a premium unit here is the definition of that.

ChelBad 03/29/2019

We booked our trip through Costco, as they had the best pricing and flight times. We were absolutely delighted with everything about the hotel! The people were very friendly, the grounds nicely kept, the heated pool was very relaxing and the views were undeniably gorgeous. We were able to walk on beach every day and hear the crashing waves from our room on the 4th floor. It is the ideal location for everything. Our condo was the perfect size for us and the kitchen was well-equipped. It took us a day to figure out the hot water in the shower, but, that was "operator" error! It is located within walking distance to food trucks, restaurants, and the ABC Store. (Buy your souvenirs here. They had the best prices on the island with free gifts for every $100 spent throughout your trip if you save your receipts.) There was a presentation on our 1st morning by our local Expedia Expert, Heather, that we highly recommend. She gave us some great tips and coupons and arranged both our Luau (Drums of the Pacific) and our Whale Watching Tour. (We highly recommend both of these! They might be a little pricey, but, the memories are well worth it.) She is a wealth of knowledge and is happy to share with everyone. Heather went above and beyond to ensure we had a great time. A huge mahalo to everyone at Mahana for making our anniversary trip so special. It was definitely a trip of a lifetime. We were given a lovely bottle of wine and a box of chocolates to enjoy on our lanai. We are looking forward to spending more anniversaries at the Mahana and their Aloha Spirit.

Greg P 04/12/2019

A block or 4 to everything you could want, including the very organized Maui transit hub to everywhere at the The Queen Ka'ahumanu Center (across the street to the right). $4 gets you an all day transit pass to explore the island and the activity hub at Ma'alea (+ aquarium) is just a 20 minute bus ride. Sunsets at Wailea, Lahaina, Ka'anapali beaches but don't miss the last bus back! Get the Maui transit app. Big/Little Beach is $13 Uber ride from the Shops at Wailea (the last transit stop). Hotel staff was excellent. Beach is sketchy, but there is a nicer beach at the Maui Seaside hotel next door (+ an accessible pool). Kanaha Beach Park is a 10 minute drive - ask if the hotel shuttle will drive you there. Excellent shopping within 4 blocks! Sunday evening outdoor market - 2 blocks from the hotel. Hertz car rental on-site. Super easy access to the Road to Hana (worth the 8-10 hour day trip on narrow winding seaside road...many waterfalls, fruit/food stands). Don't miss the beach at Kipahulu!! No point going further than that. Dinner at Mama's Fish House on the way back is $60/plate - gorgeous and memorable. Reservations recommended, but they took us without a res at 8 pm - valet parking makes it super easy. We saw humpback whales breaching from half the beaches we visited on both sides of the island.

CaptainKML (Federal Way, Washington) 03/20/2019

Seemed expensive --no breakfast included, but very convenient location near airport and a mall, with good views of water and green area, so those perks made the hotel more worth the price. Walking distance to mall, restaurants, etc. Housekeepers were friendly and helpful, but hotel room small for size of king bed, etc –2 could not squeeze thru. Furniture tattered looking, but adequate. Bathtub appreciated and balcony view and breeze was very enjoyable. We didn't eat in restaurant. Fruited water, etc available in lobby --also free newspapers and "word of the day"!

DLC509360 (Mount Vernon, Washington) 03/14/2019

Our vacation dates got moved around and where we were staying for 6 out of the 7 nights wasn’t available for the first night of our vacation. We shopped around for an economy room, we only needed one night, how bad could it be..... The Maui Beach Hotel, left a lot to be desired. Let’s just say, we woke up in the morning, before sunrise and said let’s get outa here. Now, we do regularly stay in 4 star hotels/condos and we knew this was budget accommodations but.... the hotel could have updated a lot of their services and amenities. Yes there is a free shuttle, yes there is a pool, yes they do have beach access.... but don’t let the pictures fool you. We were given the tiniest room. The room was clean, there were lots of clean towels and there was plenty of hot water in the shower.... but, the room was so tiny, we could barely fit our one suitcase in the room. There were no towels for use at the pool and the water was freezing. Plenty of sun out at the pool, they could cover it at night or spring for some kind of heating. Maybe if it was 100 degrees outside.... the freezing water would be nice. There is a restaurant but I think only for buffet dinner. You can’t walk around with cocktails/drinks from the bar, even out to the pool. You can’t take your bar drink outside to the garden lounge chairs. The grounds are kept very nice and maybe the rooms with garden facing terraces are better. I believe some of the reviews that give this hotel 5 out of 5 are planted. I can imagine that this place at one time was the best around.... but, not today. Clean, yes, budget yes, but for $200 a night, most rooms are super small and there isn’t much to do, see or enjoy.

Cf2y (Kahului, Hawaii) 03/09/2019

I come to Maui for work often and always know that at Maui Beach Hotel I can have a great view of the harbor while dining at their restaurant. The staff are also very helpful and are always ready to greet you with a smile. Sheryl was very helpful and always courteous as is the rest of the staff I met. Definitely worth it, I recommend it!

Robin K (Lanai City, Hawaii) 02/27/2019

Comfortable Rooms. Only complaint -- the lobby music was obnoxiously loud and so un-Hawaiian. Better to play (quietly) some Hawaiian music. Or, play nothing at all. When I asked (early in the morning; no one else in the lobby) to lower the volume, it went down perhaps one decibel.

SarahGrajeda 04/20/2019

I always take bad reviews with a grain of salt...you never know the full situation, how particular the person is, or why they felt they had a negative experience. With that said, my husband and I have traveled a lot, both all inclusive and not. We’re apart of two different time share companies, so we understand the random variances from locations & rooms, fees, rules, and “catches” that sometimes come along with hotels/resorts/locations. I knew when booking this trip that each room was individually owned, however, I was under the impression that it would still be like a resort with amenities and services like they claim on their website. We were part of a big wedding group, with about 12+ rooms being reserved on the property. About half of the group was happy with their rooms and the other half had major issues. I can only speak for our experience, which was not positive. Check in was easy & totally fine until I was asked for a CC to be charged $300 for cleaning services (we weren’t given a heads up about this and thought we paid in full already). I’ve heard of daily resort fees before, but they’ve always been minimal, and we’ve never been charged cleaning fees on top of the cost of the rooms. This room cleaning fee ONLY covers for when you check out...NOT for any cleaning services during your stay except for trash removal. You want fresh towels, clean bedding, or anything else? You have to pay a min of $11 each time (varies on what you need and the size of your room). Good luck getting housekeeping to actually come to you though. We called housekeeping several times and they never actually came to our room. Don’t bother calling the front desk for it, they just tell you to call housekeeping. Our reservation was for an ocean front room with a king size bed. The view was AMAZING. LOVED being ocean front. We had a full bed. Not a queen. And the room hadn’t been updated from the 80’s/early 90’s. It was clean, but not CLEAN clean. TV sucked- huge delay (not that we watched tv much at all but on the rainy nights it would of been nice) AC was NOISY & rattled. Ice maker was NOISY... would wake us up throughout each night. We don’t spend much time in our room on vacation, but we do sleep there, and we both slept like crap all 7 nights. I called the front desk after seeing our room and asked for a better room. They did actually let us view another available room but it was almost exactly the same... when I asked about anything better, (because I know they had updated rooms as others in our party got upgraded just because) the front desk was slightly rude & not helpful...the girl literally just shrugged her shoulders & gave me a blank stare. Didn’t apologize at all for the mix up or inconvenience. Some of the group members got room upgrades or dining credits (without having any issues at all) for no reason at all, but we did not even after I requested a room change..... We did have friends in our group that did get a room change for an ant infestation....and I’m talking ants everywhere....in between the plates in the cupboards, all over the bathroom & kitchen counters, etc. but they were first asked if they’d like the exterminator to come. Uh, yeah, no sh*t. They had to wait a day & a half to change rooms. So our situation could of been worse lol We also tried to rent equipment early (8am) for a beach day but concierge wasn’t available for 2+ hours. Just as an FYI, “Fully equipped kitchen” doesn’t come with salt/pepper/coffee filters/etc... I packed salt & oil spray just in case & I’m glad I did. We’re apart of a time share that has fully equipped kitchens that provides these basics & assumes this condo would as well. No storage containers with lids or foil/zip locks/plastic wrap...just an FYI! They do provide dishwasher soap (for multiple loads) & laundry detergent (for 1 load), but I did bring several Tide 3 in 1 detergent pods! Also, they want you to recycle but no recycling bin in room, and you have to drive it to the ABC store recycling disposal area. Our room did not have chairs, mats, coolers, umbrellas, or anything helpful in it, but some of our friends rooms did. We did bring a collapsible cooler I got off amazon which was amazing to have! You can rent those things at different places (or concierge if you can get ahold of them) but it’s obviously cheaper if it’s already in your room! Positives? The grounds were very well kept, two nice pools & hot tubs, and two nice gazebo areas. Overall, we HATED our stay here & would not recommend it.

knolting (Yellowknife, Canada) 04/18/2019

The is our second stay at the Aston. Our condo the first time was amazing, clean , updated and modern, so we were really disappointed when we saw our room this time. Mold on the pictures, ripped carpet, missing mouldings and the kitchen cabinets were a mess. I am shocked that a unit in this condition could even be rented. Be very careful on which unit you rent, this was unit F202

Sabrinacook (Nashville, Tennessee) 04/17/2019

We stayed here for 10 days while in Maui. The front desk receptionists are helpful. The room was clean and stocked with usual necessities. The grounds are beautiful. The pool looks clean. There is a hot tub as well as a 12 hole putting green. Be sure to look in closet for tennis racket and balls, golf clubs and balls and coolers. We bought a cooler before we had looked in there so we left it. Our room had a partial view of the ocean and grounds. But we really didn’t stay in our room that much as there is so much to see and do in Maui. There was ample parking near our condo plus restaurants and shops within walking distance of the condo. Great place to stay.

Nil_Sahoo (Bhubaneswar, Orissa, India) 04/13/2019

We visited Maui on Nov, 2018 for a family vacation. Initially we booked Aston @ Kaanapali, but that got over booked, and we are transferred to Aston at Papakea Resort. Initially we ware worried about the rooms that we would be getting, but we realized that these rooms are better compared to Aston @ Kaanapali. With full view of ocean it was really a refreshing experience.

BruceAlan1969 (Cloquet, Minnesota) 04/12/2019

Stayed inL404 overlooking the ocean. Condo had a great view of the water and much quieter than all of the big resorts along the board walk. If you are looking for peace and quiet only a quarter of a mile of all of the big resorts this is it. Price is only 2/3 of the big resorts but is very nice even though it’s a little older.

cpearls09 (Wolf Point, Montana) 04/11/2019

My wife and I are young and needed an escape after a long winter. We were on a budget and so we found Paki Maui. Our room wash very clean and the garden and grass front ocean view are beautiful. I think “resort” is not a proper term to use for this, think more small apartment, with great location for a very good price. Would absolutely stay here again!

stevewM253VE (Abbotsford, Canada) 04/09/2019

We decided to stay at the Paki Maui because it was one of the least expensive two bedroom condos we could find. Firstly the view from the balcony was amazing. We could throw a ball into the water right for our balcony. This was awesome When we first arrived we noticed the condo had a smell to it. The carpet is very old and stained. The kitchen was very small and the fridge was not very clean. The doors on the second bedroom and bathroom did not open well or close properly. My wife could not close the bedroom door all the way because it was hanging crooked so I had to close it at night. The main bathroom would consistently lose cold water so the four of us would share the small bathroom by the second bedroom. The resort itself is old and has a pool and hot tub. The tub jets are so loud that you cannot hear over top of them so you should not turn them on. We didn’t go into the pool as it is quite small and there were people in it. There was no air conditioning so we had the fans turned on at all times and they were quite loud as well in the bedroom. I loved the view but I would not stay here again nor would I recommend you to stay here. Find somewhere with at least a ping pong table so you don’t always have to leave the resort for something to do.

223tatjanam (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania) 03/22/2019

We booked an apartment, 2 adults, 2 kids. It is really meant for two people only. Full size bed and very uncomfortable pull out sofa. Other than that, fine I guess, but we never had less comfort for the money we payed.

AnnaLGeneva (Lake Geneva) 03/20/2019

Ocean view... Friendly staff, beautiful sunsets ... Right by a little shopping center, some local restaurants. Overall clean and neat place. Not the easiest ocean swimming spot, but we made it work. Great time

cbd222 (San Rafael, California) 02/23/2019

I loved sitting by the shore and watching whales spout and leap, with very few people. Not a full service place which was fine for us, especially with a kitchen. The extra fee mentioned by others was a definite turn off.

lgreenspan (Minster, Ohio) 04/21/2019

Large unit with 1980s feel. Unit was clean and I would stay here again but do not expect much entertainment from the management. unit is located across the street from the beach and only a few units have any kind of view.

NWLierly 04/21/2019

We arrived Friday for a quick getaway, staff was warm and welcoming, gave us great information, and made sure we had everything we wanted. They were having a mai-tai party at the pool as we arrived! The views from our room were amazing and better than expected, and the location is across the road from one of the best family friendly beaches in Kihei. We're looking forward to our next trip, Maui Hill felt like home.

Chris H 04/05/2019

Our week stay was relaxing and very comfortable. I was hesitant due to not being directly on the beach. However Kihei has many beaches with parking. No view from lenai. But the updated unit made up for no beach and no view. Will defiantly rebook when we return to Maui.

C6394PPvanessat 04/02/2019

We really enjoyed our stay here! They have very clean grounds and a really beautiful swimming pool! The nights where they give guests free mai tais are so fun and the mai tais are so delicious too!! They also give out potato chips for free and have a singer which was really fun!! The rooms are very clean and spacious and quiet! Most staff are super friendly, there was one guy at front desk with a gold tooth that didn't seem all that friendly though and he was slightly intimidating. We had an "Ocean View" room and although it was nice it wasn't exactly what I would call an ocean view as there were obstructions. The suite we stayed in had lounge chairs as well as lots of spices to use for cooking. The only downside in my opinion to that location is that the beach is a bit of a walk.

Relax and enjoy. Be happy, don't worry. You can walk to the beach and near by resturants.The staff is friendly. The rooms are clean and the kitchen is well stocked. Lots of activities do no site. . Outdoor gas bar-b-que .

We were here for a week, family of 5 (17, 14, and a 10 yr old) we had a 2 bedroom standard. It was upgraded a bit with new counter tops and fridge and stove, no tub, just showers and an older washer/dryer that I used once but it didn't drain the water good enough. The beds were comfortable enough for us and the sofa bed was surprisingly comfortable too. We tried both pools which are identical and we bbq'ed one night as well and my hubby was impressed how clean the bbq's were. It was a beautiful resort with a lot of colorful flowers, and we also rented beach chairs, snorkel equipment and an umbrella from the activities guy who was very friendly as well. Our room was in the T building, facing the parking lot in the very far corner and it was quiet and with the trees In front of the balcony, we had a lot of privacy. The rooms facing the pools didnt have as much privacy I noticed. All in all we liked the condo and if we came back we would think of staying here again. We booked through Westjet Vacations.

My friend and I stayed at apartment P205. Although we asked for twin beds there was a king bed that work just fine. The room had a view to the gardens but you could also see the ocean. It had everything for cooking and cleaning so it was fully equipped.

Total crap hole and the people that work there are incredibly rude. Warning do NOT stay here. They charge a $35 resort fee for some unknown reason to boot. The rooms aren't available until 4pm, and they won't let you check baggage.

Pros: Close proximity to the beach, restaurants and stores. Pool/Hot Tub areas are great, beautifully landscaped and grilles throughout the property are great for cookouts. Cons: housekeeping is inconsistent, parking is inconvenient and they make you evacuate the pool area at 10PM and are strict about it, which is early. Our unit doesnt have an ice maker and there are no others on the property. We paid extra for an "ocean view" which you can only see by leaning over the deck railing and looking at a 90 degree angle to the right. We also paid for a premium room, but found it to be dated. Friends of ours were here at the same time and paid less but had an upgraded and modern unit.

Our first trip to Maui. We came with our grown children and two other couples. The Aston was picked by our friends. So we chose an "upgraded" room with "ocean view". First of all the condo is very tired and dirty, it is cleaned regularly but years of use dirty is what I mean, I would this condo has never been updated from the carpet, appliances, and furniture all very dated. The air conditioning is awful, old rusty units in the wall, and when you sit on the undersized deck they are right there, so we had to turn them off to talk on the deck. The refrigerator had no ice maker. Our friends had standard rooms that had been updated, and were much better. The ocean view is a joke, from the deck you can see the ocean if you lean over the railing that's about it. The location is great, parking is terrible. We had a great time in Maui, but there much nicer places than this. There should be a requirement for owners of these condos to keep them somewhat updated!
