Built in the late 60s and meticulously maintained and managed by the professional staff of Aston hotels, Maui Kaanapali Villas offers the perfect respite from the busy world we live in.

My wife and I started going in 1990 and purchased our unit in 2003.

There are five buildings: the five story Aloha tower and the two-story Banyan, Coconut, Dolphin, and Emerald. Our unit is Banyan (B-147).

There are three types of air-conditioned rooms with cable TV: studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedrooms.

Studios have a full kitchen, a dining area, one bath with dressing area, king-sized bed, a sofa-sleeper, and lanai (porch). They are ideal for couples and up to two children. (600 sq ft)

One-bedrooms have a private bedroom and sofa sleeper (900 sq ft).

Two-bedrooms (1200 sq ft)

Note: The bigger the room, the higher the room rate.

Views

While most of the rooms in the Aloha tower have "garden views", (i.e., gardens on the property), there are several rooms that have a direct view of the pool and ocean. If you come January-March, bring your binoculars and watch the whale show from your room.

Dophin and Emerald have "ocean side-views", meaning that when you step onto your lanai you can look out past the main pool to the ocean.
Note: the pool can get noisy until it closes at 10pm and the drums of the luau from the neighboring hotel can be loud.

Coconut and Banyan have garden views and a smaller, private pool. Hint: It's quieter back here.

Pools

There are two pools: the main pool between the Dolphin and Emerald buildings by the Casaway Cafe. It was completely remodeled in 2007 with added hot tub:




and a smaller pool between the Banyan and Coconut buildings. This pool will be expanded and remodeledby July 2008.

Getting Around

Try the Kaanapali Trolley. It's free and runs all day long from MKV to Whaler's Village.

Or purchase a ticket on the Sugar Cane Train. It runs from the train station just outside MKV property, all the way to Lahaina and back.

Dining

Try the Castaway Cafe. Good food, right on the beach.

Views

From the beach you can see Lanai and Molokai. In the distance between the two you can see Oahu.

Lanai

Molokai with Rainbow

And there's a wealth of sunsets to savour.
