Where to stay in Maui
 
My travel agent has given me a list of resorts in Maui and they all seem to be very nice. I need some suggestions on which one to choose. My choices are the Four Seasons, Renaissance, Embassy, Hyatt, and Kae Lani. Thanks for the info.

Four Seasons.<BR>No further consideration necessary (unless you've got kids in tow).<BR>ES is not even in the same category as the others, the Hyatt's older and worn.<BR>Renaissance is OK but nothing like the FS.

You got a list with these hotels (as different as they are) from a travel agent, who then told you to pick one?<BR>And he or she is being paid for providing travel consultation expertise?<BR>Remarkably weak impersonation of someone performing a worthwhile service.<BR>

maxine - Yes, my travel agent gave me a brochure on all of the hotels I've mentioned and then some. I have narrowed it down to the list of hotels that I mentioned in regards to prices. Any ideas? Also, thanks Jed for your response.

Going in June and staying at the Hyatt on the request of my travel agent. 4seasons was a consideration, but expensive. However you pay to be catered to, which isn't bad thing, if that's what you are looking for. The other 2 weren't in contention.<BR>Have fun!

When I went to Maui, my husband and I stayed at the Royal Lahaina Resort. It was awesome, had a blast, the bar tenders remembered what we drank every day and night, it is a beautiful resort, but when we were there we walked thru the Hyatt, very ritzy if you want that!

You should check out the Grand Wailea - just awesome. Most travel agents never mention it for some reason.
