Marriott's Maui Ocean Club - Molokai, Maui & Lanai Towers

Been to get Starbucks coffee there. The pool looks like more for the kids than the Hyatt Regency that we stay.

This resort ALWAYS screws up reservations. I called owners service multiple times to verify reservations and spoke to the resort two weeks ago and confirmed and it was still wrong! We have come to this resort more than 10 times and every time is is messed up. This trip I have 3 units reserved. One reservation was made as Ocean Front, but it upon arrival I was told it was not. I am here for 29 days and have to move in the middle of the stay. WHAT? I am Titanium Chairman and started with Marriott in 1983. Also my name on the reservation was wrong. Somehow my name is all one word!?! How does that happen?? Such incompetence on every level. I am DONE WITH MARRIOTT! Will be selling these points as soon as I get home. UGH!

One of the best spot when we have an ocean view in a villa on the 9th floor Great for Marriott destination club members because the rate is over 1000$ a night if you are in a villa and not member Great restaurant on site and try a macadamia pie it is unique Everywhere you will find a smile and help A place to go in a marriott vacation Club

10/10 DO NOT RECOMMEND! Especially if you have small children! Dangerous balconies with rods not connected, my 3 small children could’ve fallen off 5 stories. Not 1, but TWO large diesel generators running outside our balcony 24/7. Construction in the entire tower. Hotel never forewarned us of any construction going on prior to making reservations. This is negligence on behalf of the hotel to not have the balcony property secured. Spend your money elsewhere.

Staying at #marriottoceanclubmaui and they put us in a construction site. There are jackhammer, drilling and sawing all day from 7am to about 6pm. We are all 4 handicap with disability and they put us the furthest from the elevator. Checked into our room and there were dirty towels in our room. Asked for trash bags as there were none under the sink or can when I changed trash and they brought 3 more trash cans. The fridge didn’t work, all our cold food went bad. Sister slipped in the tub and they said go buy a mat at Walmart. They just don’t care. #Marriott You should be ashamed. #marriottvacationclub #marriottvacationsworldwide #marriottbonvoy

It's hard to think of anything negative to review about Marriott's Maui Ocean Club. For one, location is prime! We really enjoy the Kaanapali beach area. It is lined with all these mid to upper range hotels that are all accessible via a beach walk. It is a short distance to Whalers Village where you can do some shopping including an ABC Store where you can get almost everything. Access to a variety of restaurants is just a short walk away. It is also very close to the Hyatt if you were wanting to see the famed Drums of the Pacific luau. As soon as you step out of your room, the beautiful Kaanapali beach is right there when you can lounge, soak up the sun, and watch amazing sunsets. I really can't think of a better area to stay that in Kaanapali. Sure it can get somewhat busy in the beach path, but you hardly notice it as your enjoying the sights and views along the path. I'm an avid runner, and running along the beach path and neighboring roads was just inspiring and motivating. Quick tip: run early in the morning to avoid the crowds. As for amenities on the resort, they had a giant scrabble set, a chess board, and ping-pong table to name a few. We didn't get to check out any of the classes such as bracelet making hula dancing, but I assume that this was common at these hotels. We did take advantage of the free shaved ice one afternoon at the pool area on one of our pool and beach days. To be fair, I'm sure the resort had tons of other activities but our time was short in Maui and spent most of it sightseeing around Hana and visiting Haleakala. Parking wise, we booked the resort through Airbnb so I'm not sure if that was included as part of owning the vacation club, but parking was right next door in the garage and accessible via the hotel. Before booking, we were a bit concerned with the area since it was in close proximity to Lahaina were the unfortunate fire happened, but we quickly learned that most of the hotels and establishment north of downtown Lahaina didn't experience any of that devastation. This was our second time staying on Kaanapali beach and wouldn't think of staying anywhere else. Oh and one final thing, the other nice thing about the resort or property is that after checking out of your room, you still had access to the pool and other amenities if you have an evening flight. They even offer well appointed changing areas after visiting the pool or the beach.
