My only complaint was that the mattress needed to be replaced big time. The kitchen had everything you could need - plates, silverware, blender, full size fridge, etc. It was great having the washer and dryer, especially with our sandy towels. Location was perfect. But that mattress. I didn't get a good night's sleep once.

I would recommend staying here, but maybe it's for the best to rent from the owner rather than booking a vacation package. Each unit is owned so no matter which review you read, if you don't book a specific unit you won't know what you'll get. Our Unit, a 1 bedroom condo, was in the F building (A, B and F are closest) and was a minute from the beach. It was spacious and had all the amenities you need: fully stocked kitchen with decent appliances, washer/dryer, pull out couch and love seat, big screen TV and PS3, shower (not bath), king size bed... The furniture was old and mattresses on the couch and bed were years since needing to be replaced. My back will need a few days to recover. There was a $20 resort fee added on at check-in, but at least that came with unlimited DVD rentals (lots of brand new movies available in the lobby Kiosk). Parking can be very difficult at night. I had to go to the Office and they had to get a staff member to move their car so I could park. The staff were pleasant and we really enjoyed our stay. The Pools are simple but nice and there are plenty of BBQ's available around the grounds. The location is great with lots of shops and restaurants within a 5min walk. Kamaole 2 is an outstanding beach!

Spent our wedding anniversary in Maui, stayed for 3 nights there was a problem in the bathroom with the first apartment,so we were upgraded to a beautiful apartment in the main building. Staff were lovely the manager sent us wine/ chocolates to our apartment. We hired beach chairs so didn't use the pool but it did look nice surrounded by beautiful gardens . We enjoyed our trip to Kihei ,Maui and will never forget it thankyou for making it memorable.

This hotel is comprised of individually owned condo units centrally managed by Aston. There is a separate hotel, the Maui Banyan, in the front, closest to the street/beach, then a separately managed condo structure, followed by the four Aston managed condo structures at the rear, furthest from the street/beach. The furthest condo, latest in the alpha, would be 400 meters from the street. Massive parking structure, lower levels are reserved for permanent residents, thus usually need to go to the rooftop. Each condo unit comes equipped with a full kitchen. The unit, sofa, carpet, and blankets had a stale smell. Being aligned vertically toward the ocean, ocean views were partial. Otherwise, it was functional and close enough to a nice wide white sand beach. Service was nonchalant. Front desk was rigid with a 4PM check-in and 11AM check-out. Rules stated to empty trash upon check-out, a bit away being next to the parking structure. We were miffed when searching for the trash bin, asked a custodian in a cart, who verbalized the directions, then ended up seeing him there ... why didn't he offer to take our one bag of rubbish in his nearly empty cart??? Many similar choices along the Kihei/Wailea coastline. Would only stay here again if the price is right.

We just returned from a 10 day visit to Maui and were extremely happy with this property and the front office staff. This was our first stay at the Aston Maui Banyan. We stayed in a gorgeous one bedroom unit with a partial ocean view overlooking S. Kihei Road with views of Molokini in the distance. Our unit had been updated and we were very pleased with the kitchen and bathroom with its walk-in shower. The gardens are beautifully kept and landscaped. The unit we stayed in was quiet and peaceful. What impressed us the most however was the professionalism of the front office staff particularly Cat in the front office who was so kind and helpful throughout our stay. We would most definitely recommend this property. It is clean, quiet and you can't beat the location in Kihei. We visited Kamaole Beach II for our morning swim, sunset viewing and also walked across and plunked our beach chairs down at night for a third time to enjoy listening to the ocean and viewing the stars before bedtime. We more than got our money's worth at the Aston Maui Banyan. We also enjoyed the convenience of being able to walk two short blocks to Coconut's Fish Cafe and other shopping. We would definitely book this property again.
