Royal Lahaina Resort & Bungalows
8/10 Good
"Great Grounds and Luau, but a Few Hiccups
Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ (4/5)
The Highlights: Grounds, Beach, and Luau
The grounds at The Royal Lahaina Resort and Bungalows are absolutely beautiful, and the pools are decent. One of the best parts was the beach—it’s very nice and, thankfully, not overcrowded at all. Another major highlight was the Myths of Maui Luau. It was great, and I definitely recommend splurging for the VIP experience!
The Accommodations & Staff
Most of the staff members we encountered were pleasant, with the exception of one evening front desk agent who could have been more helpful.
As for the room, we stayed on the 9th floor of the tower. The rooms themselves were small but very clean. The beds were comfortable, and the A/C worked great, which is a must. However, we hit a bit of bad luck during our stay as the resort was being painted. Being up on the 9th floor, the smell of the paint was overwhelming.
Food & Beverage Note
A quick heads-up on the coffee shop: I wouldn't recommend the coffee here. It was very weak and tasted like it was mostly milk.
The Verdict: Despite the paint fumes and the weak coffee, the beautiful location, great beach, and excellent luau made this a solid 4-star stay."
"This was an absolutely beautiful place with friendly staff and a great location on the beach. The pool is great as well. Food was delicious. We got to see so many great things right off our balcony, including a Hawaiian Monk Seal!"
"The beach was nice but large rocks about 10 yards off shore made it really not swimmable. The bus runs every hour down to Whaler Village where the ocean swimming much better. Nice pools, just not much of an ocean swimming resort."
"Location was great. Steps away from the beach, right next to great restaurants and shopping at Whalers Village. Would absolutely stay here again when we visit Kaanapali the next time!"
"The location for this gorgeous resort cannot be beat! The views are breathtaking and you are right on the beach and tide pools. The grounds were immaculately kept and the flowers are beautiful. We’ve stayed in other places on the island before and will only come back to this hidden gem now. Book the condo-you will not regret it!!!"
"The Outrigger is a beautiful place to stay. The staff is very warm, friendly, and helpful. The grounds are beautiful. You will be close to the beach and the pool. There are plenty of excursions to choose from. I wish they had a bit more of variety of food/restaurants in the hotel. Overall, we highly recommend staying at the Outrigger in Maui!"
