Maui Hotels
I am going to Maui in November & I am looking for info on hotels.
Right now I am booked at the Maui Prince for 4 nights but have been considering changing to something else. Is this palce any good? I hear the pool is really dinky. I want this to be a special vacation, not just a bargain hunt. I think the Kannapali area may be a little too crowded for me. I want somewhere a little more relaxing and romantic, maybe in the Wailea area. The Fairmont Kea Lani is sold out, the Four seasons is out because the tour operator I signed up with doesn't book there. How does the Renaissance Wailea or the Wailea Marriott stack up against the Prince? Its hard to tell by reading the reviews, people ALWAYS find stuff to complain about and maybe they are just in a bad mood or ultra picky. I would appreciate any tips! Thanks in advance!!! Ted |

We stayed at the Marriott Outrigger in Wailea in March, 2003. Had an
ocean front room. The view of western Maui was beautiful. We saw whales breaching from our terrace. Nice shopping center you can walk to behind the hotel too. We didn't eat much there. Breakfast was so-so. Seafood Buffet was good. Save up and go to Mama's Fish House. I forget the town but its about 8 miles east of the airport on the way to Hana. Send me an email if you want to see some pictures. Or I may come back later and post a link. Al (Ted) wrote in message om... I am going to Maui in November & I am looking for info on hotels.

Based upon what you've said, I think you'll be disappointed in the Prince.
It's pool area is definitely very plain and unexciting. The grounds are nice but not special. It is well maintained. I walked through it a year ago and was surprised at how much less interesting it was than when it first opened. Don't really know much about the Renaissance or Marriott but most of the places in Wailea area are nice. The pictures on the web are probably representative of what you would get...........Pam, owner of a condo in Maui and travel there often "Ted" wrote in message m...
