In quarantine Marriott Maui

[luv_maui]

Just arrived, and started Our quarantine here at Marriott Maui. Flew direct into Maui via LAX. Completed paperwork at airport then free to go to our resort. Hired a driver who drove us. Friendly check-in person, however, he couldn’t tell us how full the resort was. However, only guests in Napili Tower. Our personal shopper delivered our grocery order from Costco and Safeway. So we are quarantined the next 14 days and must start check-in online starting tomorrow. View from our room.

Glad you made it safely! Have a wonderful 7 weeks - 2 weeks quarantine is not too bad - when Hawaii island implemented the stay at home order and we managed to stay in our home for 2 weeks without an issue - there was no need to go for groceries during that period - you should be fine.

That’s great! Have a wonderful time! It’s great to see someone making the best of this crazy situation. Give us an update from time to time!

2 week quarantine is not too bad when you have 7 weeks I agree...not so good when you only have 2 weeks..

 

[Theiggy]

That’s awesome! Glad you made it -enjoy your trip!

Woot! You made it! Hoping the 2 weeks go fast and the next 5 go slow

 

[Steve A]

Do you have to stay in your rooms for two weeks or can you walk around the resort?

 

[JanT]

Whoo Hoo!! Glad you made it! I know you were on the verge of not going when you original flights were cancelled. So very happy you were able to get there. Please post pictures - lots of pictures as soon as you are out and about. Many of us are living vicariously through people like you and frank808 as you make the best of a crazy situation! Have fun!!

Day 1 of 14 State of Hawaii quarantine reporting in Online: all 4 questions default to no, Question 1: “Have you self-quarantined in the location selected?” So you can’t just hit submit Button or you would have Admitted to violating self-quarantine in location of your previous registered form. Last three questions are in regards to how you are feeling within last 24 hrs and have you experienced any of the following:

#2) fever, felt feverish, or had chills
#3] new or worsening persistent (frequent or continuing ) couch?
#4) new or worsening difficulty breathing?

after changing 1st question to “yes” I can then hit “submit” button. Must do this for everyone in your party, so we had to do this for my spouse as well.

amy21: when we called Marriott, security person answered and we started talking. He suggested I call Demming‘s Delivery service for food. Demming referred us to a driver, whom had a town car. Wasn’t sure if uber was available and we brought 4 large luggage and 2 carry-ons, so felt having a dedicated driver with large vehicle nice and reserved vs Uber / taxi too small.

steve A: we literally are NOT allowed to leave our room other than for medical reasons. We knew this going in and we have no intention of violating the quarantine. When Demming delivered our food outside our room, marriott security pushed the cart of food into our room for me to unload, so I literally didn’t step outside of my room, and pushed the cart outside of room for Marriott security escort to take luggage cart back.

our room keys we were told are not 1-time use keys (which I read online) since I feared what if it didn’t work the first time? But learned the room key is good for exactly 30 minutes from time of issue. No issue if one-time use or 30 minutes, since we only used them once.

Day 1 morning from 2nd bedroom Lanai, Napili Tower

Are there any mask requirements on the island? With the quarantine, there shouldn't be a need for anyone to wear masks.

Why would you think that? It's not just those coming into Hawaii that can spread COVID 19.

Marriott Maui Lahaina and Napili Villas, initial observations:

1) Lanai’s not cleaned and/or simply unused for quite a while due to resort mostly empty.
2) carpets not clean - after only about an hour walking in room with my socks were very dirty
3) large 50 load Liquid laundry In room. Obviously didn’t need to bring my own
4) two small lanais, off each bedroom. i just remember the large gorgeous Lanais from Hyatt
5) excellent shower pressure in master bathroom; just came from Courtyard LAX with terrible water pressure
6) nice large windows in main living are to view ocean front
7) several large tupperware containers with lids, nice since we have to cook all our meals in for next 14 days
8) full size stackable washer / dryer
9) very nice stainless steel refrigerator freezer (bottom)
10) lockoff room refrigerator - very small, and no cooking top or washer / dryer - but that’s unique to Most / many Westin Timeshare villas, (Westin Maui villas- WKORV)
11) living Area floor was dirty, had to sweep, no vacuum.

I, too, am so glad that you didn't give up and figured out the flights and are there! That's not a bad view for 14 days...esp. if you're mostly working during the work days, anyway. I was supposed to be gone for two weeks starting today. My national conference in DC all this coming week and then the big FL family trip that has been such a hassle since first discussed. Now, I am dreading the "virtual" conference experience all this coming week, and I've since had a required two-day virtual training for a grant we've received recently layered on top of that. All I can say is, that view would make the coming week much more pleasant for me, even if I couldn't go outside and enjoy it, because I'm stuck online all week anyway, LOL!

@luv_maui Thanks for the updates. Sorry to hear about the uncleanliness of the room. View looks very nice though!

Just a minor update: Westin Kaanapali North [WKORVN] studio lockoffs have full washer dryer. A report from another TUGger below indicates that a stovetop exists. WKORVN studio also has it's own small lanai with 2 chairs, so well equipped for lockoff. WKORV doesn't have studio lanais except for the OF center units. The one bedroom side just renovated and added a full oven.

"The studio side [WKORVN] also has a baby dishwasher, a standard size fridge, smaller stovetop (2 burners??) and a microwave/convection oven."

You should be able to request a vacuum for the room given the low occupancy. We have been at Ko Olina since March 24th and in the same room since March 29th. The staff provided a vacuum upon request and it's still with us.

Beautiful morning from inside our room

 

[CalGalTraveler]

IMO...Quarantine doesn't look so bad to me. The hardest part would be not being able to run or walk on the beach every day.

As I said in another post, when I vacation on Hawaii it's to get my ocean fix. It would kill me not to be able to go to the beach every day.

luv_maui, Thanks for your observations. I'm glad that you were able to make it safely to Maui. I realize that coordinating your flights was a big challenge! Looking forward to hearing more about your adventures and unique experience during your visit to Maui! By the way, have you noticed any problems with the AC? I don't know if maintenance turned off "everything", or if they left the AC on low. I remember a past post expressing concerns about the AC... CJ

 

[MabelP]

I am so happy for you. It puts a big smile on my face knowing you made it!

AC works fine. WiFi appears decent too.

So envious, glad you went. Sit on your balcony a lot, have lots of whatever your favorite beverage is. Before you know it, you’ll be on the beach.
