Aston Ka’anapali Shores Hotel

October 31, 2026

Lahaina, Maui – The best Halloweens land on a weekend that’s for sure, right?  I’m so glad that we decided on a staycation at this hotel.  It was actually the cheapest hotel closest to Lahaina town without stepping down from standard amenities and a resort that is Ka’anapali “Parkwayesque” if you will.

They have ample parking, the one (1) bedroom suite is so spacious, clean and modern.  It feels like a home away from home.  They have two (2) pool areas, a restaurant, bar, a gift shop, a sundry store, a fitness center (that is not affiliated with the hotel but at cost and the equipment is up to date and worth going to), and a partridge in a pear tree. 

We also received two (2) pool towel cards (staying only one (1) night), a dvd rental card, a parking card to get in and out of the resort; the best thing about the suite itself is the full kitchen with refrigerator, microwave, sink, stove, coffee maker, breakfast counter and dining room table.  And guess what? – A washer and dryer to do laundry, and a dishwasher.

I’ve stayed at all kinds of places around the world, some of the swankiest and some not so much but this is the first time we stayed somewhere that has everything we need across the board when it comes to maintaining your daily routines on vacation or on staycation.  All the comforts of home.

And so you don’t have to spend ridiculous amounts of money for food that you shouldn’t really be eating in the first place in some instances.  You can stay on your diet if you’re on one, you can stay on your fitness journey if you’re on one, and you can stay organized and neat if that’s what you are focused on.

And you can also go out too and spend money if that’s your fancy. 

I would have to give this place a 10 out of 10 for sure.  And honestly, I want to make this my go-to hotel here on our Island home, Maui.  As we say in Hawaii, “Maui No Ka Oi.”
