We had a wonderful time at this facility and recommend it highly. For the price we would have paid for a hotel room a mile or so south, we got a large condo with comfortable living room, 32" TV and a gigantic bathroom with separate vanities. The view from our balcony that overlooked the gardens, pool and ocean was beautiful. Access to Lahaina was quick and easy.
Breakfast was hot and generous buffet, though the same basically each day. The afternoon cocktail reception offered beer, wine, mai tais and margaritas and simple mixed drinks with chip munchies. There was no limit and the drinks were generously poured -- both breakfast and cocktails pretty much follow what we have received at Embassy Suites in other cities.
This is our third trip to Hawaii so we were wise to the timeshare pitches and the "discounts" you get to attractions for giving up part of your vacation to hear them. We simply ignored the invitations and made our own arrangements -- easily done.
I don't know what the reviewer who gave the poor rating expected. If you want sit-down, served breakfasts and made to order blender drinks they are available -- along with smaller hotel rooms -- for more money at the Sheraton and Marriott, but you will also pay more for these luxuries. The overall package at the Embassy was economical and ample. Having tried the other places on previous trips, we will be heading back here on our next trip to Maui.
