This was our first time in Maui (we have already been to Oahu and Kuai) and also our first vacation since before Covid. I booked this hotel/airbnb specifically for their kid friendly pool since we have a 3 year old and also because it was beachfront. We all had a really good time. We swung by the Westin Kaanapali next door and I liked the pool at the Nanea better, so I’m glad I made the right choice. If you are vacationing as honeymooners or with no kids, be warned, there are a ton of kids. The adults only pool is small, like the size of a hot tub, and is not overlooking the beach. If it was just my husband and I traveling I probably would have booked somewhere in Wailea. Our airbnb was a 2 bedroom villa and even though it did not have a great view (looked out into the mountains and parking lot) it was still very nice, spacious, and modern. I appreciated that there were some conveniences such as laundry and dishwasher detergent because those are often used when traveling with the family for a week or longer. Other pros: free parking, nice boardwalk along the hotel overlooking the beach, beautiful grounds. Cons: they chose to use ROCKS instead of sand in the kids pool and they hurt our feet bad! Other travelers we spoke to agreed. The hotel is noticeably under staffed and there were not enough restaurants within walking distance. Disappointed that at this point in time there is still no housekeeping available. All in all, I’m happy with our stay and would recommend the Westin Nanea and this airbnb to other families.
