FWIW...W57 was a Blackstone backed project. Was told it was the first purpose-built timeshare in NYC

Is that a rule specific to Grand Wailea, or a city regulation?
I drove past the Maui site - it is unchanged from X years ago.Its interesting that they are creating a third, higher point tier with Ocean Towers and Grand Islander. The second tier was Kings Land and Grand Waikikian. Where will it end? If they ever get something on Maui it is sure to be this third tier points.

Did they formally abandon it or is it just our expectation?
Best,

And, if you go Sunday or Monday evenings (I think it's both nights at both locations) at 5 and get in line (actually have to get there closer to 4:15), it's 50% of on just about everything on the menu. Worth the time hanging out. Did this in Kihei in May with friends.
Cheers.

Last I heard its abandoned. They are probably looking for a hotel to do a conversion, over in Kaanapali.
We love Sansei. I thought that the "early bird special" was for the 5:15 PM seating, and we had to order everything by 6:00 PM for 25% off most items. I thought that the 50% off on Sundays or Mondays was for Hawaiian residents with a resident card. Have you been able to get 50% off with some other form of ID?

For the 50% off, it's not a Kama'aina thing, so no ID required. Just requires being there in line early enough to get in and order by 6 on Sunday and Monday. It's not well-publicized, so that becomes somewhat self-limiting.
Cheers.
I hadn't put that together in my head...but that IS an impressive corner on the Kaanapali market. Somehow I don't see HGVC buying up Alii Condos one at a time to give them a presence on Kaanapali...;-)The Marriott/ILG/Westin/Hyatt Res. merger now means that Marriott controls all major TS on Kaanapali beach from the Hyatt Residences to MVC to the 3 Westins past Black Rock, and the Aston properties beyond that. That's a lot of TS beach real estate.

We love Sansei too
Sansei early bird discount varies by location.
In Waikiki, there is usually a line so get to your location before opening (limited seating; first come, first served).
And of course, expect longer line on the bigger discount days
See hyperlinks below for more details
Where: Sansei Kapalua & Sansei Kihei
When: Everyday (order must be in before 6pm).
Price: 25 percent off (50% off with Hawaii State ID on Sunday & Monday)
Where: Sansei Waikoloa
When: Everyday (order must be in before 6pm)
Price: 50 percent off (Sunday & Monday) / 25% percent off (Tuesday thru Satuday)
This may be what it says, but it is not correct, based on my experience. We went to Sansei Kihei in May. None of the 4 of us is a state resident, and getting the 50% off on Monday was no problem.
Oh that’s good to know. We’ll be on Maui next month.
Back in 2013, we got 50% in Waikoloa (link) but I just assumed that the rule changed.
We’ve been to the one on Waikiki numerous times but only tried the other locations once.
We've been to both the Waikoloa and Kihei Senseis. Love them! I've had the best, freshest sushi ever. We went to the one in Waikoloa first, didn't know about the discount pricing. We've always gone later and just paid full price. Last time we went to the one in Kihei their tempura fryer was broken which disappointed both of us. However, it did make us try some other menu options, which were also very good.We've been to Waikoloa a bunch, but never for the discount time. It's nice that the HGVC locations in Waikoloa are walking distance from Sansei.
This was our first trip to the one in Kihei. We don't care for Waikiki, so we don't go there.
Cheers.
