    A Good Resort for a Maui Vacation

    Check in was easy with a friendly staff. Stayed in a bungalow. It was clean and comfortable. Had a nice patio that overlooked the grounds and the ocean. For the price of the rooms not having daily housekeeping seems odd. The beach is easily accessible and was not crowded. Bring beach chairs. The resort only provides them for a charge which again for the price you pay to stay seems ridiculous. There are 2 pools. They stayed pretty crowded most days The resort charges a daily parking fee if you have a rental car. We stayed a week and the parking fees add up. This is a negative. The on-site luau was entertaining and the food was ok. It was a good experience but not necessarily worth the high cost. The resort is just a 10 minute drive to the shops,bars and restaurants on Front Street. We ate there every night Lots of variety and better value then the restaurant at the resort Check out was easy. The resort is about a 30 minute drive to the airport depending on traffic

    Absolutely the Best Hotel in Maui

    Wow where do I start, we’ve been coming to the Royal Lahaina Resort every year since 2008, sometimes twice a year. We have brought many family and friends with us to celebrate different milestones. We got to know the Food & Beverage Manager Ford Ushijima and now consider him as our Ohana (family) he is just Amazing! We have become friends with the entire staff there and they have always treated us as royalty! I could not stay anywhere else but here, as we consider the RLR our home away from home. If you’re planning a visit, please consider The Royal Lahaina, as you will not be disappointed. Mahalo

    We were onsite during the natural disaster that occurred in Lahaina. The staff went above and beyond to make sure that all guests were comfortable during this time of uncertainty. The professionalism displayed was commendable.

    You MUST Stay at the Royal Lahaina Resort- feeling of “Ohana”

    “Ohana” that’s the epitome of our experience of amazing wedding rehearsal dinner, the feeling. Mahalo to Yvette of the hotel, Jason the Director of food and beverage and of course the one and only Ford from food and beverage. You made this so special for our entire family. There’s no place I would tell and advise people to stay - The Royal Lahaina. You make your guests feel at home and experience magic everyday. You made it hard for us to leave. Every tourist should stay at the Royal Lahaina resort. The feeling of ohana and love.
