Sands of Kahana Vacation Club, Lahaina

Exceptional

Disliked: Thought the registration workers could be a lot nicer and engaging.

Not worth the money and...

Liked: Not much to enjoy. It was under construction and not as advertised in photos.
Disliked: No AC in rooms! It was sticky and uncomfortable. We ended up leaving for a place we found on AirBNB last minute.

It was very enjoyable

Liked: Beautiful property walking distance from private beach.Nice rooms, big lots of space and full kitchen. Washer/dryer included
Disliked: No ACDuring the late night and morning it was cool but during the day it was too hot but we left during the day to explore anyways.

Very good

Liked: Ideally located close to beach, shops, restaurants and tourist attractions. The apartment was enormous and the kitchen well stocked with all the utensils, cutlery, cookware and plates etc you could need.
Disliked: There was no air conditioning, only ceiling fans and because our room was near the staff maintenance area and close to the road so it was too noisy to have the windows open to try to cool down.

Best sunsets on the island!...

Liked: The room included absolutely everything we needed. The location was perfect, with the most beautiful sunsets just outside your door. The club offered so many activities, as well as places to relax. Parking was so easy, and free!
Disliked: No air conditioning in the rooms.

Exceptional

Superb

Liked: Beautiful pool / beach to enjoy at sunset - next to good bar/restaurant.
Disliked: Windows of the bedrooms are half open and you cannot close them: It means you listen to all people going to the elevator and you wake up because of noise.Bedrooms: only a bedlamp as a light.

I guess it was okay...

Liked: The room was spacious. We liked the full kitchen and washer and dryer. Also, our room faced the parlor and trash receptacles.
Disliked: Small pool, very small beach. No air conditioning. The resort was older and outdated.

No AC, bug bites, right...

Liked: The location was nice, on the beach with a couple of good spots across the street to eat. Sushi was expensive but Dollys was great.
Disliked: The room we had was huge, dated and lacked screens on the major window in the bedroom. But everything needed to be open because there’s no AC and it was very muggy. Our bedroom was next to the adjacent hotel’s parking lot with bright street lights that beamed in the room all night. Their trash was picked up at 3am by a loud beeping truck. The entire 2 1/2 hours I spent trying to sleep in bed I was being bit by bugs. Went down to let the front desk know we’d be checking out asap not to stay our 2nd night and show him my bites. Took 10 minutes to hunt him down because nobody was at the desk, and he didn’t even apologize for the unpleasant experience. Just asked if I was checking out at 1:30 am? I had over 2 dozen bites on me and spent the rest of the night on the couch looking for another hotel to book. We checked out at 7am, that staff member was sweet and apologetic. I spent about 2hrs trying through Booking to reach the hotel to get a refund on the stay. We eventually did get a call back from the nice manager for the refund. This was only a 2 day mini vacation for us and 1/2 of it was this crazy stay.
