Jun 28, 2025A Perfect Return to Maui Kaanapali Villas – Our Best Stay Yet
We’ve stayed at Maui Kaanapali Villas (MKV) in 2014 and 2016, and we’re so glad we returned again on this trip. We booked a one-bedroom premium garden apartment via Booking.com and requested a loft-style layout — we were allocated Apartment 239, and it exceeded our expectations. The apartment was beautifully renovated, spacious, and thoughtfully designed. It featured two bathrooms, which was perfect for our family. My wife and I had the loft bedroom and our own private bathroom, while our teenage daughter used the sofa bed downstairs and had access to a huge bathroom with a double vanity — essentially her own suite! The lanai overlooked the serene garden pool and spa, creating a peaceful and relaxing setting. The apartment was clean and well-equipped with everything we needed. MKV may be the oldest resort on Kaanapali Beach, but it retains a charming, traditional Hawaiian feel. While the property has been renovated over the years, it still offers an authentic and welcoming atmosphere. It’s quieter and more private than many of the larger resorts, and the beach access is absolutely top-tier. The staff were consistently friendly and helpful throughout our stay, and the on-site Castaway Cafe remains one of Kaanapali’s best-kept secrets — a true hidden gem. We highly recommend Maui Kaanapali Villas and will definitely be returning

Best resort in Kaanapali
My family and I first stayed at MKV in 2014 and have since then fell in love with the resort and do not want to stay anywhere else. This visit, we stayed in the Banyan area: room 239. It was a beautiful loft with two beds - including a fold out sofa, a kitchen, 2 tvs, a desk, a balcony and 2 spacious bathrooms with shower amenities provided. The resort has 2 pools, shuffleboard, table tennis and an amazing restaurant called Castaways that is open all day. The service is amazing and the staff are so friendly. The resort is also home to some stray cats - some who love to be petted. There is also a trolley that comes to the resort on a scheduled timetable to transport you. It is also right on the beach and is amazing for sunset views. Overall, I highly recommend staying at the Aston Maui Kaanapali Villas, you will not regret it.

Aston Kona by the Sea
Each condo was spacious and clean. 2 BD , 2 bathrooms, kitchen and lanai. Ocean view, except for waves very quiet. Facility is very secure, passcodes everywhere!! BBQ optional, hot tub and pool. Would recommend this facility. We were a group of 14 and enjoyed our stay. Good location.

Nice Quiet Place to Saty
We highly recommend the MKV for those that are looking for an alternative to the large neighboring hotels with massive pool areas and battles for lounge chairs. We reserved a Studio Ocean View Premium and were upgraded to One Bedroom Ocean View Premium, which was amazing. Easy strolls along the Beach Walk, to Dukes on north end or Whalers Village on south end. And if you are looking for a great affordable restaurant (hard to findin that area), the Castaway Cafe is on the hotel property. We are already looking to book our next trip there!

Perfect vacation spot
I think the front desk was leilani? She MADE this trip by going above and beyond. Initially I was put in a room that was undergoing renovations and had unpacked and everything. They asked I vacate the room so they could put me in the right area. Well they ended up upgrading my room and giving me a restaurant voucher for the trouble. Exceptional service to quickly fix the issue and will be back
