Best resort in Lahaina Maui

[Hoc]

Do the upgraded rooms now include stove top/oven units? How about washing machines in the unit?

My girlfriend tells me that the upgraded room we saw had marble or granite countertops, and a full kitchen including stove top and oven. She did not pay attention to whether there was a washer in the room.

Hmmm. I called the resort last night and they said only 8 2-bd units in the entire resort has the full kitchen w/ stove top and oven. I will call them again before I book (if I book there).

Seven things come to mind right away, but there are more:

6. The balconies were large enough to enjoy -- you could sit on them and watch the ocean, while the balconies at the Westin were so small you could barely stand on them. The balconies at the Marriott were comparable to the ones at the KBC;

7. You can always find space around the pool, and the staff is good about enforcing the "no reserving the chairs all day by putting a towel on it" rule. At the Westin and Marriott, you can virtually never find a chair around the pool that is not reserved all day with a towel that is never used, and the staff will not clear the chairs.

The balcony at the Westin on the 1BR side seemed plenty big to me.

We just spent Christmas week at the Westin and never had a problem finding open chairs. The same week at the Marriott last year--different story. People were saving seats before sunrise.
