Independent Wailea-Makena hotels

"We were a party of 6 spread into 2 rooms. We were in the tower, which was fine- although not that convenient since we were at the kids pool everyday, which is on the other side of the resort. The housekeeping service was excellent- never disturbed us - always working around when we were out. Rooms were left tidy and clean. Mostly, we spent our days at the kids pool. Chairs were plentiful and service was top notch. Easy to order lunch and drinks without having to go anywhere. Pool was really awesome for kids to play at and the water slides were great. Always kept clean and accessible. Towels and complimentary sunscreen were amazing. Our kids also enjoyed the lobby area and games room. We had a family member babysit kids in this area while we went for dinner and it was easy to keep them all entertained. The resort shops had nice beach wear and the store has whatever you might want. We didn't rent a car and felt that we had a great time staying at the resort all week. Small groceries and hot/cold deli is available across the street at Island Grocer. I would have liked a fridge that was a little bigger. The shops at the mall across had nice summer clothing and I bought some new pieces there. We ate at the buffet a few times and the food was delicious and the value was good if travelling with kids 5 and under. There was low cost DIY laundry at the bottom of tower- which we appreciated. We had a wonderful holiday!!"

"Beautiful property. Close to the beach-Kamaole beaches just across the street. Good location. Room had beach accessories such as chairs, umbrellas, toys, goggles, ice bags for picnics. Overall clean. We will use this property again when we return!"

"The Andaz resort was absolutely beautiful. The views from the lobby and ocean viewcrooms was breathtaking! The staff was exceptionally attentive to our needs. We woyld highly recommend the Andaz resort. The rooms were clean & very spacious. Loved the shower."

"Our room does not have beach view but beach towel and chair is available. Just a few feet to the beach and ample parking in the back. Comfortable stay."

"Nice staff, especially at the bar. Rooms were very clean. View was okay from our room. "

"Very clean and modern condo. Very well maintained. Check in was a breeze and we loved the patio. Great location on the property. "

"Our housekeeping staff did an amazing job. Every I ne was so friendly."

"The property is a true gem boasting expansive lush flora and fauna with multiple pools creating a swimmer's paradise. The various coves and levels including a waterpark and adult pool add to its allure. The expansive beach offers breathtaking views shared with the Four Seasons. Our room was exquisitely appointed with a spacious patio featuring outdoor furniture a rocking chair and a modern interior with an oversized shower and spa-inspired bathroom. The lobby is a work of art reminiscent of the Bellagio. The service was exceptional and attentive allowing guests to order drinks by the beach or pool. However beach umbrellas incur an additional cost while lounge chairs are provided in the lawn area adjacent to the beachfront. A notable highlight was the bar area featuring a see-through aquarium bar. One area for improvement is the availability of umbrellas throughout the property as they tend to fill up quickly and the sun can be intense. Notably the Waldorf has a more family-friendly atmosphere compared to the Four Seasons and the Andaz which we also visited. While the property itself is truly stunning and impressive the Andaz may be a better option for those seeking a more intimate and relaxing experience."

"Well kept grounds, manicured, pool and area clean"
