I love this place and have stayed in different resorts in Maui. THe most bang for your buck, not over run with kids, chairs around pool are always available, not over crowded when you are trying to catch the elevator or make your way through the lobby, at times you may be the only one out of the beach, beautiful...

Only an in room fridge but lots of room for beer and snacks. There is a coffee shop downstairs that serves fruit and bagels and Whalers village is only a 3 k... More

We have stayed here before, but this time it was even better than before. The staff are great and the hotel is well located for all the Maui attractions. We had a very good room with a great view to the ocean and the island of Lanii. The hotel is near the township of Lahaina and Whalers Village where there... More

Room on the 12th floor so great views of the ocean and golf course and perfect for whale watching! Get an even numbererd room above 6th floor for ocean views. Hotel within walking distance of whaler village or free trolly runs fairly often. Dollar for the bus from there to lahaina for shopping or dining. Quiet beach but not kid... More

We stayed at the Royal Lahaina for 9 days in mid-January. The front desk fulfilled our request for a cottage (which had been noted during our reservation process) instead of one of the updated and very modern hotel rooms, which are great, but a little too "mainland" for us. Although the cottages on the property are "traditional Hawaii" style rooms... More

Checking in late in the evening I feared we would get "stuck" with the terrible cottages...like the bad reviews claim. And, we did. Despite those reviews, by morning we had fallen in love with our little cottage. We had patio doors leading out to our own table and chairs, fresh flowers and birds singing all around us. We could walk... More

The Ocean Inn is one of the older buildings on the site. It does not have an elevator and the decor is very outdated. However, the rooms are clean and quite and quite spacious. There is a reason why the price is lower than other sites on the resort. But, if you're thinking about only using the rooms for sleeping,... More
