We've been here three days now, and are enjoying the experience. Everyone is nice, and the resort is overall kept up nicely. As did others, we used a Costco package deal for this trip. Things to keep in mind include the following. We're here in low season, and see that the pool area can get crowded early when the resort... More

We stayed at the Kaanapali Alii the week of May 6th. We rented a vehicle and easily found the resort. Took about 40-45 minutes from the airport. We were very warmly welcomed and showed to our room by Jesse. He was very friendly and helpful. The room was enormous! We did not request an ocean front room, but we were... More

We love this place and are going back again next year. The best deal we found was from Costco Travel and included our rental car. We stayed for 10 wonderful, relaxing days. Even the “1 bedroom” units are actually 2 bedroom. Example: our unit 1 bedroom unit has a master bedroom, with King bed and attached master bath. There is... More

My husband and I recently stayed in unit 482 for almost a week. The unit was completely updated - granite counters, updated furniture and bathrooms. The den in this unit was converted into a second bedroom with a queen size bed. We never used it, as there were only two of us, but it was nice having a second bathroom... More

We've stayed at this property twice in the last two years and both times have been extremely pleased with its amenities, the friendly staff and the proximity to the ocean, Whaler's Village and its shops and restaurants and the beach walk. A great bar-b-que area; outdoor TV area for the big game, the gym and spa are wonderful and the... More

Stayed here November of 2011. Had a great time. Location was incredible. Pool was great. Several grills located on the property for your use. The condo was very clean and very comfortable. Will go back someday.

We stayed at the Kaanapali Ali'i from Apr 9 through Apr 16th. My family (myself, husband, son-age 12 and daughter age 10) had a wonderful stay. We stayed in a one bedroom partial ocean view and had plenty of space. The den had a sliding door that we could close in the evening and queen bed was great.(It really was... More

Directly on kaanapali beach near to the most popular restaurants, the westin hotel (where there is a Starbucks or a buffet breakfast on offer which you can charge to your room) and walking... More

After 14-plus trips to Hawaii and extensive travel worldwide, this is unequivocally the noisiest place we have ever stayed, due to shrieking and yelling children and parents that apparently feel such behavior is acceptable. The noise at the pool and common areas during each of our seven day stay would begin about 8:45 a.m. and continue unabated until far after... More

We used to own a condo at the Kaanapali Ali'i, and it's been several years since we've been there. I was delighted and stunned to have them REMEMBER me when we arrived. Our stay was perfect; the accommodations were perfect; the staff was perfect; the available resources were perfect. And we can't wait to go back! My only recommendation would... More
