My DH wants to head to Maui earlier than our timeshare week. Any suggestions on the best way to stay 5 extra nights during peak whale season? Is the Westin Nanea doing any promo stays that anyone knows about? He wants a place on the beach with nice pools. Thanks for any ideas.

Nanea is definitely doing some specials because we have friends who stayed 5 nights, and it was only like $599 for them. I know they don't own at all. And when they went, they didn't even have to attend the sales presentation, so how is that okay?

Have you tried Costco Travel, assuming you are a Costco Member.

I looked yesterday. I didn't see any promo deals, but I'll check again.

finding a promo deal during whale season is extremely unlikely given it's less than 6 months away and the super high demand during that time.

I got the Westin offer also, but you need to add the resort fee and parking, if I remember correctly. Though mine did include a car. Worth contacting them.

You could also just rent another week and/or points. If not a points owner, then have the owner book them for you via sites like: https://vacationpointexchange.com

(Mox might have something. ;-)

I called VSE and they said the promos are by invitation only. I'll look into just renting another week (so unlike me to rent! I need to buy another week now :cheer:). Has anyone rented at Honua Kai before? And if so, any comments on how that all went?
