We are multi-week owners (1 BR and studio) and will do our best to make the rental process as efficient and seamless as possible. When you rent from an owner, self-parking & WiFi are free and there are no resort fees. But...Hawaii state occupancy fees apply. These fees vary by unit type and are due at time of checkout. When we were there in April 2024 and taxes were APPROXIMATELY $190 for the 1BR and $33 for the studio. Optional valet parking is available for $33 per night. Please note that these fees are estimated. A housekeeping fee of up to $88 (subject to change) may apply depending on how the reservation was booked. If you dont want housekeeping, let the person know when youre checking in. This 1 bedroom unit sleeps four adults comfortably has a full kitchen with a dining area and living room. The master bedroom includes a king size bed with access to the lanai and a luxurious bathroom with 2 sinks, a jacuzzi tub, toilet room and a large stand up shower. Living area includes a pull-out queen size bed, and breakfast bar adjacent to the dining room table, with an additional slider to the lanai. The unit also includes a washer/dryer. Come explore the island where you can climb mountains and explore volcanoes, swim under waterfalls, and snorkel with the sea turtles right off the world famous beach of the Westin. With views of both islands (Lanai and Molokai) from the rooms, pool and beach, this resort has the perfect location along the beach and boardwalk that runs the length of Kaanapali beach. The pool is an oceanfront pool with rock waterfalls where water flows through the connected lagoons. The resort features Auntie's Kitchen Restaurant which is poolside. Pailolo is a sports bar with several TV screens and features burgers, sandwiches, and salads and of course, your favorite cocktails with Happy Hour and a daily drink special. This bar also serves the poolside guests. One of our favorite conveniences is the washer and dryer because we don't have to pack as many clothes. We just throw our clothes/bathing suits in the washer and we have clean clothes ready for the next outing. We also love grilling fresh seafood and steaks on one of the many gas grills on the property. We go to the grocery store a few times while we are there so we have breakfast foods, lunch snacks, food to make dinner if we dont feel like going out to eat, and we usually keep wine, drinks, cheese and assorted local fruits in the fridge and have a late night snack with a glass of wine out on the Lanai each evening and a cup of coffee sitting out on the Lanai greeting each new day. When renting your vehicle, keep in mind that 95% of the parking spaces in Maui are at best compact width so if you have a large vehicle you may have difficulty finding a parking space. Make sure to take photos and a video of every door ding and scratch (check the windshield for cracks and check the tire treads) and interior of your vehicle and carefully document it on the car rental form before driving off, and make sure to keep your copy. There is a Wal Mart and Costco, which are only a few miles from the airport if you need to stop and get groceries. FYIit takes approx. 45-50 minutes to get to the resort from the airport, as long as there are no accidents or traffic jams. Gas and alcohol are cheaper at Costco than locations near the resort. Another option closer to the resort is the Safeway grocery located in the Cannery Mall. If you go to the Safeway, I highly recommend signing up for one of their membership cards BEFORE you start shopping so you can get the discounts on groceries. Download the Safeway app and click the digital coupons and save even more money with in-store promotions. We usually save a LOT of money by using our membership card. We also love the book Maui Revealed: The Ultimate Guidebook (available on Amazon) and the app that goes along with it. Its called Revealed Travel Guides Maui GPS Driving Tour. The app is ~$15 and is well-worth the money. Its an audio driving tour. We loved it. Make sure to visit Haleakala National Park, Dragons Teeth, the Blow Hole, and Hookipa Beach (where the sea turtles rest on the beach). There are so many other places to visit but these are some of our favorites.
