I've stayed at the Maui Beach for 20+ years. Typical scenario, arrive from the mainland after a long flight, Maui Beach is a two star motel and you need a shower and place to crash before checking into hotel elsewhere on Maui the next day. This stay was a shock to say the least? $200 all in including a $25 "resort fee" and $15 parking fee. The parking fee I get, but the "resort fee" is ludicrous! It's like paying a resort fee for staying at a Days Inn. The only "amenity" I used besides Wi-Fi was ice, and the ice machine was empty. I will sleep in my car before I stay in this joint again. Aloha

I don't want to bash this property, so I will just list a few things I wish I would have known before booking my ocean view room. 1: The bedroom was on the bottom floor, the ocean view we upgraded to was barely a sliver and the windows were covered by trees. The mattress was really bad. We asked to be moved to an upper floor, but there are only two double beds available, so we stayed in our room. The ocean is there, but the hotel is in a wharf where we saw a cruise ship come in and out of, and there's only about 15 feet of sand but it was full of trash and needs to be cleaned. Don't think you're going to be able to hang on the beach and swim at this location. 2: The room was small, and musty, shower was really small, mold bubbling everywhere that had been painted over, especially at the base of the shower on the drywall. Musty basement smell. 3: The room had no access to the courtyard. They could have easily put a sliding door to walk out, but there are just small windows and you have to walk all the way around through the halls to get outside. Very old hotel design. 4: Location is convenient to shopping, and centrally located. The pool was nice, and the restaurant is nice. Parking is easy, and the location is very convenient for the airport. But we will not be staying here again.

Nice place near the water with a courtyard, pool, and recreation area.

Just an overnight stay. All good.

My room was on the first floor near the end of the building. There was a slight smell when I entered it, but it disappeared in half an hour when I opened the windows. Since it is located near Kahului Airport, reaching the airport within 5 minutes is convenient.
