We enjoyed the condo and resort. Place was very nice and well stocked. Very thoughtful what they provide. I wish the AC would have worked better at night but I think it’s an Hawaii thing. The resort charged to use the gym. That was a surprise and didn’t think that was right. Resort was beautiful. Staff was nice. Condo was clean with great views. Very quiet as well. Didn’t hear anyone except for outside. It was super low key and quiet. Resort was not busy. Family friendly. I would I stay again.

Nice place. Very spacious. Beautiful view. Nice to have coffee every morning on the lanai. Very clean and equipped with everything. Minus a few little critters meaning cockroaches coming out at night. But hey we are in Hawaii. I enjoyed our stay. Wouid stay again.

We stayed in the penthouse at Kaanapali Shores resort. The view was great. The bedrooms were very nice. They provided chairs, towels, bags, and a beach umbrella. The kitchen was also very well stocked with things you might need. We also appreciated having laundry pods ready for us when we arrived. Pool bar was great, and there were a few little shops at the resort. I would recommend skipping the Beach Club restaurant. The food was subpar and the service was cold and unwelcoming. Would also recommend bringing your own snorkeling equipment as there are a lot of fish to see close to shore.

We throughly enjoyed our stay at Kaanapali Shores Unit 903! It was very comfortable and spacious, the kitchen was stocked with almost everything you could need. The two pools at the resort were very nice and clean. The view from the balcony was breathtaking. We would definitely love to stay there again

We just returned from a week stay at the Kaanapoli Shores 903 rental. We had a wonderful time/experience. We have 2 daughters and the space was perfect to accommodate the 4 of us. The property was very clean and the pictures in the listing are very accurate to what the property looks like. The condo has beautiful ocean views that we enjoyed. We saw sea turtles and dolphins from our balcony. We found the location of the condo to be ideal. We were very close to several other beaches we wanted to explore as well as Whalers Village which has nice shops and restaurants. It was nice to be out for a long beach day and only have a couple minute drive back to the condo. The property has 2 nice pools. The pool closest to the ocean has a bar with prices that are very reasonable. The complex as a whole is old. It was very clean but just outdated. However we have found that if you want to be ocean front, the new resorts just can't get as close to the water like the older complexes did. Some of the reviews mention cockroaches and that was one of my big worries going there. We only saw a couple. This does come with the territory of it being a tropical wet area. We kept all food up and sealed, kept the kitchen clean, and the key is to plug every drain at night. We really didn't have any issues at all. It was great!We absolutely loved our time at 903. We would absolutely book this condo again and recommend it to friends and family.

Our stay was awesome! Resort was clean and nice. Great pools and hot tubs. The restaurant there wasn’t so great but we bought groceries the first day to cook breakfast and lunch ourselves anyway. Walking distance to lots of shops and stores. The beach is right there and actually has some of the best reefs for snorkeling. Myself, my husband, and our nanny went with our 2 littles. 3 year old and 1 year old and the house was accommodating for little kids which I was so thankful for. Overall great family trip!

We loved this condo! It was clean, looked brand new, was fully stocked and felt like home. We spent a lot of time on the balcony watching the whales while having our morning coffee. It’s in a great location with great beach and pool access. Will definitely be back! Highly recommended this condo.

Breathtaking views from the balcony, great for whale watching. Apartment had everything we needed, large master bedroom and bathroom, well equipped kitchen. Family of 6 fit with no problems. Amazing resort with multiple pools and spas.

We had a great stay in Maui. I needed something very specific for my family during our stay in Maui. Specifically, I needed twin beds in the second bedroom for my kids. I also wanted a great view of the ocean, a clean and modern space, and some amenities like a pool, restaurant and gym. This place delivered on all of those things. The best part was the whale watching from the lanai! We would see many whales throughout the day from our room. It was magical! I would happily stay there again.As it relates to the property, I liked that it never felt too crowded. (Other resorts that we visited seemed like people were scrambling for pool chairs.) The property was fairly quiet and offered just enough. It was also well maintained. They have a really cute shop on site called Swell, but it was only open for a couple hours on one day the entire week we were there. I wish it was open daily because I definitely would’ve bought souvenirs from there. There’s also an on-site “convenience” store, but it closes at 5 PM so didn’t offer much convenience. That said, there is a grocery store within a short walk across the street, so you can get everything you need there. I just didn’t feel comfortable walking over there by myself at night. There were also plenty of restaurants and things to do within walking distance to the property, including one onsite restaurant. Overall, it was a great stay and the vacation rental met our needs perfectly. We would definitely stay there again.

We could not have asked for anything more! Three whole booking process was smooth, questions were answered promptly and then the apartment itself was absolutely amazing!!! The views are the best on the island (especially the second bedroom) and you could not want got anything more. If we are lucky enough to return we will be sure to book here again... Mahalo!

Kaanapali Shores 903 was just outstanding. Watching whales from the balcony was simply the best. We really enjoyed this condo. It was very well appointed with everything you might want for a great vacation. It was nice to have a supply of paper goods and soaps available as well. Communication with the Spice? Team was amazing and they were right there for anything we might need. There were few roaches in the kitchen but when I called it in they sent someone right in to spray.
Overall it was an amazing vacation condo and it exceeded our expectations!
