We stayed in the new towers. We had a 3 bedroom 3 bath. It was totally amazing. The rooms were spacious, clean and inviting. We were on the first floor right by the pool. Thought this might be an issue. However, it turned out to be wonderful. There were no noise issues and the ease of going from the pool to the room was great. The beach was nice. My husband and kids took surf lessons from the group at the hotel and really had a good experience. We ate at Longboards, after the reviews there was little hesitancy, but we found the food to be very good and the live entertainment was great. The front desk clerks were helpful with directions and suggestions. Another plus we found is the gas grills and tables. We cooked out twice while we were there and then we would relax in the hammocks. I would stay here again and again...We loved everything about the Marriott Ocean Club.

I returned from the Marriott Ocean Club on Saturday June 13th after spending 8 nights there. It was amazing. The grounds of the resort were clean and well manicured. The rooms were spacious and clean. Having 3 different pools to chose from was nice, the Superpool was closed for renovation when we arrived but opened on Wednesday June 10th, so we were able to use it for 3 days. Longboards resturant is good food with Happy Hour each night. The Beachwalk Market place is ideal for snacks, lunch, breakfast, ice cream and beverages. The location of the Marriott is in between the Westin and the Hyatt, there is a long walking path beween all the hotels that leads to Whallers Village, a small shopping area with resturants, fast food and an ABC store. The entire trip was amazing.

We stayed here for 7 wonderful days from 5/29-6/5. It was my husband and two 18yrs. We stayed in the older unit so I was alittle upset we had no cooking facilities. The rooms and beds were amazing as always with Marriott. The walk along the beach is great in the morning and at night. Whalers village is so close as many other activites. We snorkeled with Teralani's the best in my book which is just a short walk down from the Marriott near Westin. Jet Skis and other water activietes parasailing are right in front on the beach to enjoy. Staff was accomodating. I agree with one writer about the 7:30 am phone calls especially when you have a 5 hour time change and your phone rings. i enjoyed the fact that we did not have to pay for laundry in the coin operated area as we thought we had that in our room. The main pool was closed so our room looked over it everyday the bad thing we never saw one person working on it the entire week we were there until the day we left they started moving chairs over. I felt the ppol could of opened alot sooner if people would have worked on getting things back into place. I have always loved going to Kaui this is my first time on Maui and I must admit I did enjoy it. It is alot more crowded and there is alot more activity at the resort so sometimes peace and quite may be hard to find. Especailly since the walk way is open to everyone. My biggest compliant is Longboards (rude service) we waited over 20 minutes for someone to wait on us and finally the waiter walks over after three employees noticed us waiting there and said that this section was closed. Needless to say i was not happy. My other complaint is locals going into the pools and hot tubs. The Westin or Hilton all have property wrist bands I think this is a big problem for Marriott and they should start this also. Overall I'd be back in a minute. Lahina is a great place to spend the nightlife and walking the quaint town. Great places to eat and many shops. I can honestly say we LOVED it here. Kaui is also fabulous is if you want a quieter atmosphere

We loved this place. Exceeded our expectations. Staff was very helpful and very friendly. Grounds were amazing. Rooms were very nice and comfortable. The a/c problem we reported was tended to immediately. The only drawback was the long walk from the parking garage but it most definitely didn't mess up the wonderful experience this place was. Very romantic and relaxing.
