TheUbuntuZealot Review of Grand Wailea A Waldorf Astoria...
Everything we expected and more!
Everything we expected and more!
I went to Maui to get married and decided to stay at this resort, we talked to some locals there in Maui and they also agree it is one of the best resorts in Maui. What a great place, upon arrival we were given leis, the check in process was quick and we were off to our room. The room was beautiful with views of the ocean and their very well taken care of gardens and ponds. We had a king sized bed with dual showers and a huge tile tub (in room spa), mini fridge with some free water, coffee maker with free coffee, iron and board, hair dryer and free soaps and lotions and let's not for get the awesome free wifi. The staff is very kind and upbeat, everyone says aloha and mahalo which really helps with the Maui vibe. Our cleaning lady was one of the best we've ever had, turn-down service was also exceptional, we have champagne with chocolate covered strawberries, towel swans and orchid flowers in the bath and on our bed with Mr and Mrs pillows and flowers everywhere what a perfect way to spend the night after a wedding!
I see a lot of negative reviews and I just don't understand them, our room was perfect, the service was perfect and this place is like heaven on earth. Folks, if you are going to Maui expect to pay more it is in the middle of the Pacific Ocean after all! We had our breakfast included and the buffet in the morning is a great way to start your day before hitting the pools and the ocean. We visited about 10 different beaches on this island and Wailea is on the top 5 of our favorites (if not number 1). There are fees 30 per day per room and 30 per day for parking. We ate mostly at the resort, the quality of the food is very good but pricey (again it is Maui) after all said and done we paid about 6k for 7 days not including airfare or tips or excursions. I would highly recommend this place if you got the money, it was the perfect place to marry the woman of my dreams she only deserved the best and this is one of the most beautiful places in the world. One of my favorite things about this resort is the night time walks through the gardens, the fire torches are an awesome touch. I could go on and on but this place it is a 5 out of 5!
