Lahaina Shores Beach Resort offers leisure travelers an excellent home base from which to explore downtown Lahaina, Front Street, and West Maui. The resort's 199 condo-style rooms have light, tropical decor and are clean and comfortable with lanais and kitchens/kitchenettes. Mountain and oceanfront views are available, but for travelers who can afford it, the views of the Pacific are worth the splurge. There's little in the way of amenities beyond a small outdoor, ocean-facing pool, and there's neither a bar nor a restaurant on-site.
Scene
Old Hawaii decor dominates the dark, dated lobby in this low-key resort
A popular choice for the over-40 crowd looking for a home base from which to explore West Maui, the scene at Lahaina Shores Beach Resort is actually its lack of scene. Its lobby is decorated in an old-Hawaii style and is a bit dark and dated, but serves its purpose of getting guests checked in just fine. There are no gathering places, save the pool, and little opportunity for interaction with other guests.
Location
Beachfront property very close to bustling downtown Lahaina
With a beachfront location and very close proximity to downtown Lahaina, the Lahaina Shores Beach Resort in West Maui has an address that's hard to beat. Set on the oceanfront along historic Front Street, tourists looking for easy access to shopping, restaurants, and nightlife will be pleased, as will beach-goers—the property has the only vacation rental condos in town situated right on the water. Art galleries, whale-watching, and day spas are within a few minutes' walk from the resort.
Rooms
Apartment-style rooms ranging from studios to penthouses, all with kitchens or kitchenettes
Ranging from studios to suites, the condominium-style rooms at Lahaina Shores Beach Resort are clean and comfortable, with blonde wood furnishings, white walls, and light tropical colors. All condos come with in-room kitchens or kitchenettes, which makes them feel more like homes than hotel rooms. Each has views of either the mountains or the Pacific, and while the units with oceanfront views cost more, waking up to the blue sea is worth it for many. Each condo has a private lanai, central air-conditioning, cookware and utensils, and a coffeemaker. Flat-screen TVs and DVD players are also included.
Features
Few amenities at this condo-style resort
Despite its name, Lahaina Shores Beach Resort lacks the long list of on-site amenities most frequently associated with resorts. Instead, the 199 condos offer a comfortable home base for exploring West Maui. There's no on-site bar or restaurant or spa, though all these things are just outside the door on famous Front Street. There is a small oceanfront pool and hot tub on the property.
