Loved this place! From the moment you arrive and are greeted warmly, see the waterfall and pond with flamingos and koi at the checkin area; the views even in the back of the hotel towards the golf course and mountains are spectacular--you don't need an ocean front room, you can see it from the lanai in the back of your room. The pool is great, a real extravaganda of connecting pools with waterfalls and slides. A kid's paradise, for sure, with the pools and parrots and macaws all over the place. The view of the ocean and the islands across the water are to die for especially the sunsets! The only thing at all to detract is the high prices of everything especially the restaurants there--very high! $30 for breakfast buffet for example, but there are more affordable places to eat right around the hotel including a small shopping center with a food court. You can choose to pay extra for a private cabana facing the ocean ($* for the day) but you get service including free water and pineapple all day long and can order food and drinks for a fee if you wish. The staff is great there, very friendly. We attended a Wayne Dyer conference while there and the meeting room was nice, comfy chairs to sit on, air conditioning was perfect. Overall, I recommend this hotel very very highly! We will be back again next year.

This hotel is in a great location. The walking path along the beach offers a great way to get in a brisk walk or jog in the am and the path or beach is the perfect setting for a relaxing evening walk. There are very good restaurants and plenty of shopping within walking distance. The staff was always very helpful when we needed assistance or had a question. The valets never made us wait more than ten minutes when getting our car. The beds were comfortable it would be nice if they were queen size. The refrigerator in the room instead of a mini bar makes up for the rooms being on the small side and can get quite crowded for a family of four with older kids. There is not enough drawer space to unpack and store suitcases. Other than that we loved our stay and look forward to returning someday.

This was a vacation we will never forget. Maui in itself is so beautiful, but the Westin resort & Spa was fabulous. You almost forget there is an ocean behind you when relaxing by the pool. We went in January, it wasn't too crowded. On the hottest day about 90, staff came around w/ ice cold towels that were soaked in eucalyptus. I can't say enough about this place. The food and drinks especially the Lava Flow was to die for. The beds were so heavenly, staff was so polite and accommodating. I can't wait to go back. We spent 6 days in Maui and 4 in Waikiki. Forget Waikiki, Stay in Maui!!!! They also have a lift in the pool for those w/ disabilities. It was similar to the one I saw at the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago. Very impressed w/ their concern for the disabled.

My fiance and I decided to postpone our wedding until May of '08 but having all ready booked the honeymoon we figured we might as well take advantage and go on it. I was so impressed. Despite having part of the resort under construction there was never any noise problems and it certainly did not disrupt from the view. We had a beautiful one bed room suite with a whirl pool hot tub and a dual jet shower. The hotel concerage service was excellent and although we were there on a honeymoon it seemed a great place to take family as well. The food and drink were over priced so we opted to make drinks in our room and drink them while on our balcony overlooking the beach or go into town. This hotel was very accecable and the pool was splendid. I loved the lobby and the fact that it had HUGE sliding doors that stayed open (as if one wall was missing) so you were able to enjoy the perfect weather even when inside. I would recommend this hotel to anyone and can not wait until we get to return.

The hotel was great as was the staff. The beach was beautiful. Had a great honeymoon and can't wait to go back!
