I just spoke to someone at the Maui Ocean Club. We have a reservation for a one bedroom ocean front unit for May.
I was told that I would either be in Molokai or Lanai. I asked about the construction and was told that Molakai would be in very acive construction at that time but Lanai would also have construction and some lanais would not be usable. Having booked Ocean Front, not being able to use the lanai is not too good.
Wondering if anyone there now can add to what is going on.
thank you!

We were at MOC last week in a 1BR Ocean View in Lanai tower 4th floor. We had no issues at all with construction. There did appear to be one Ocean Front stack in Lanai tower with scaffolding outside. It was the corner stack that faces north toward the pool area.

The only time we heard any construction noise was when we were using the lounge chairs on the lawn in front of Nāpili tower. We could hear work going on in Molokai tower next door.

We are considering going there next January. Does anyone have a crystal ball projection of what to expect in the way of construction?

We are here now, but in the Napli Tower. Took a photo tour for you. Here is what I can see:

Molokai Tower - The rear 2/3 of the South facing rooms all appear to be under construction and vacant. Workers are present and you can see equipment and appliances on the balconies. IMG_2405

Molokai Tower - The ocean front rooms show no signs of construction. IMG_2406

Lahaina Tower - The North/Front corner (impacting some of the higher floor Ocean Front rooms) shows some work being done on the exterior balconies themselves. I cannot tell if the rooms are vacant or if the occupants just don't have access to the balconies. IMG_2407 and 8

Lahaina Tower - The South/Rear corner shows a lot of work being done on the exterior balconies themselves. I cannot tell if the rooms are vacant or if the occupants just don't have access to the balconies. IMG_2409

Note that the pictures that you identified as “Lahaina Tower” are actually “Lanai Tower”
