“What a life”

Royal Lahaina Resort

Apr 25, 2008

We stayed in the towers 1st 4 nights OCEAN front and the next 10 days on the 9th floor towers with ocean view we were all over the Island and I would go back to the Towers everytime we just loved it there and the staff was absolutely great. What a fun time for our 1st visit, thank you Royal Lahaina, Roger & Lori

“awsome place”

Royal Lahaina Resort

Apr 15, 2008

Stayed here for two days before an emergency back home called us back. Started in the cottages and they were horrible. Moved quickly to the tower oh my what a difference of one half star to a 4 plus. Beach was beautiful and location was perfect. Bad was the pool was small rectangle. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Management Response
RLRMAUI, Hotel Manager
(Management representative)
Apr 18, 2008
The Royal Lahaina Resort is comprised of two primary accommodation types, the original cottage accommodations and the newly renovated 12-story Lahaina Kai Tower rooms and suites, all located on 27 acres of grounds fronting a very exclusive stretch of Maui’s Kaanapali Beach.

The Royal Lahaina Resort cottage accommodations are currently being upgraded with new soft goods (carpeting, linens and interior / exterior paint). The cottage rooms offer a moderate level of accommodation and good value for this world-class setting and unique accommodation offering traditional Hawaiian ambiance. Cottage rooms are set amidst the resorts tropical gardens and oceanfront lawns and allow direct access to the pool areas and beach. Room rates for the cottage accommodations is set at the entry level pricing for oceanfront resorts located on Kaanapali Beach.

The Lahaina Kai Tower rooms at the Royal Lahaina Resort have recently undergone a complete 33-Million Dollar renovation and now offer a new luxurious guestroom experience, with high quality furnishings, custom decor and state of the art amenities. We are confident that guests booking the new Lahaina Kai Tower accommodations will find the guestroom quality, service and overall experience to be of the highest quality available within Maui's Kaanapali Beach Resort.

Guests are invited to select from the many accommodation types and room rates available for that which best suits their desires and budget.

Mahalo.

“Great Stay in Ka'anapali”

Royal Lahaina Resort

5 of 5 stars

1/1 found this review helpful

This is a great hotel in a great location if you stay in the Kai Tower. Beautiful rooms, great views from the balconies, great breakfasts in the restaurant downstairs. Overall a great experience. 2 pools, great location on the beach. You can walk a few minutes up the beach to a great snorkel spot. Would definitely recommend this hotel as long as you stay in the Kai Tower. I can not speak to the other rooms as I did not see them. I simply followed the advice of others and was well rewarded.

“Loved Royal Lahaina”

Royal Lahaina Resort

Apr 12, 2008
2/2 found this review helpful

Stayed at Royal Lahaina Resort end of March/beginning of April. Had booked an oceanfront cottage last year for our stay but was told not available upon check in due to renovations. We were then upgraded to an oceanfront room in the main section of thehotel at no extra charge. Rooms are very nice & spacious, very comfortbale beds. Can't wait to see how the cottages turn out. Staff very friendly, always smiling & willing to resolve any problems one may have or just answer any question. The food in the hotel's restaurant was delicious also. Grounds & pools are very nice. We were one of the many stranded by ATA airlines & the Resort made sure no one would be without a place to stay & offered a very substantial discounted rate if our stay were to be extended. Overall I was very satisfied with the hotel: looks, cleanliness, friendliness. I have no doubt if I'm ever able to get back to Maui, the Royal Lahaina will be my hotel of choice.
