    oceanfront views
    convenient parking
    uninhabitable room
    intrusive noise
    poor management

    The oceanfront room offered a stunning view, but unfortunately, it was uninhabitable, forcing us to leave. The atmosphere was lively, boosted by the nearby luau, and the large parking area made access convenient. However, the noise was quite intrusive at night, detracting from an otherwise relaxing experience. Despite these concerns, the on-site shops and restaurants were enjoyable, making daily outings easier.

    beautiful beach
    friendly staff

    perfect spot for exploring beautiful beaches and local attractions

    I loved my stay here because the beautiful black rock beach is just a short stroll away, and the property offers access to the amenities of the larger royal lahaina which made my visit even more enjoyable. as a single traveler, i appreciated the tranquil vibe of the area, yet it was still easy to enjoy shopping and dining at whalers village, which is only about almost 1.5 km away and offers plenty of options for a leisurely walk or a meal outside, but the daily parking fee was a bit steep at $36.

    beach access
    affordable amenities

    ocean inn offers a lovely beach just a quick walk from the rooms. i loved joining a yoga class on the beach! the poolside bar looked fun too, though i enjoyed some yummy ube ice cream instead. for the price, this stay was fantastic, especially compared to nearby options.

    the room felt dated and basic, which was a bit of a let-down.

    beach views
    sunset

    This place was a great match for my short stay in Kaanapali at a good price. The beach views were stunning, especially during sunset. I'd suggest checking the hours for the hot tub and tiki bar before you go.

    I appreciated the quick access to beautiful pools and the lovely beach just steps away from my room, making it convenient for a senior. The sunsets from the balcony were simply breathtaking, creating a relaxing atmosphere.

    Update outdated room furnishings for comfort.

    sunset views
    beach access
    beautifully maintained pool
    poor air conditioning
    uncomfortable room

    we celebrated our anniversary here and absolutely loved the sunset views from our ocean view two queens room. the location was perfect, just steps away from great beach access, and we enjoyed evenings by the pool, which was beautifully maintained. overall, this stay exceeded our expectations compared to past experiences in kaanapali.

    the air conditioning didn’t work well.
