Aston at Papakea doesn't really care about how you feel about the conditions of their "resort" or how you are treated while you are there. I was originally given a very nice room, but not the room that I paid for. I paid for beach front. Not a break your neck view of the ocean from hanging out of the balcony. I called and was sent ...
We had a very clean, recently renovated studio with a pull-down Murphy bed, and it was great in most respects. One has to remember that there are a lot of units in this complex, so there will likely be some construction work going on at any given time. In this case, there was, and it's pretty annoying. I might look for a complex with fewer ...
It was very nice place, my condo was renovated and in great condition. The location isnt the best, but its only a short walk to the nice part of Kaanapali beach. Close to Lahaina and Whallers village. The washer and dryers were a HUGE plus and its great place to stay if your staying for a while in Maui.

We three girls stayed at the Papakea from May 22 to May 29; in J105. We were so pleased with the size of our condo. We had a 2 bedroom/2 bath, and it was so roomy and well equipped. The people who work at the hotel were very helpful, and accomodating. I was pleased with their honesty also. One day I left all my jewelry laying on the bedside table, ...
Had a one bedroom Ocean FRONT and couldn't have had a better location. Loved the condo which was updated and very clean. Loved the pool and grounds - everything was excellent. Close to activities - close to restaurants - Great place to stay.

Over all, good, but with a caveat....

We've stayed at Papakea several times, always in an ocean front room. We have had to change rooms every time we've been there b/c either the room was dirty or the room next door was being remodeled and there was hammering and drilling going on all day. The office staff was eager to accomodate us in each instance.
WE AS A FAMILY LOVED IT. I AM NOW MAKING ARRANGEMENTS FOR ALL MY 3 CHILDREN THEIR HUSBANDS AND 8 GRANDCHILDREN AND 1 GREAT GRAND CHILD AGE 6. IT IS SUCH A MEMORY MAKER PLACE TO GATHER. SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE. WE LOOKED INTO CRUISES AND THE VOTE WAS FOR PAPAKEA RESORT, SO YOU SEE THEY ALL CANT BE WRONG. A LITTLE BIT OF OUR HEARTS ARE LEFT EACH TIME WE VISIT.

Have stayed in various condos at Papakea for 10 years. Every July and sometimes twice a year.
Close enough to Lahaina and Kaapiolani Beach. Nice and quiet. Only 4 stories so low density. Don't stay near ponds. Koi jump out of water at night to catch bugs and it sounds like someone fell in. Also the ponds have frogs which sound off as ...
This was our first time to Maui. We can't say enough good things about the Papakea. The service was superb, the room was clean, maid service excellent. Parking was at times difficult but it was free so who cares.Our room was facing the ocean- we could hear the surf all night. Very romantic.I had chosen a condominium so that I could have the ...
