West Maui hotel rooms a the Independent

"The bungalow we stayed in was perfect. Walking distance from the beach/pool and very clean. I highly recommend the resort. Beautiful beach, crystal clear water and you can run into a turtle once in a while. Sunset views were excellent. My family and I had an unforgettable time and were very happy with the resort staff. Proximity to Whalers Village was prime as it gave us something different for food and some shopping."

"Friendly staff, modern clean rooms, lovely amenities around the resort, access to daily breakfast, snacks and dinner bites in our tower on the lanai. Beachfront and easy access to shopping and additional restaurants. "

"Check-in was fast and easy. Room was spacious and had a great view. "

"Highly recommend."

"The place was amazing. It sat at the end of the strip of wailers Village. The buildings were a bit older, but very well maintained. The amenities were great with one exception of the pool being way too cold."

"Amazing view! Loved the balcony and all the ocean views from the room. Staff was friendly. Saw so many whales , turtles, etc . "

"Clean and friendly"

"Great location. Room was clean. "

"Here’s the good and bad: the view is fantastic, the patio is great, the kitchen was remodeled and is very nice. It’s lovely to have two full bathrooms and they were well supplied. But the place smelled like mildew, which could have been from 3 days of rain ahead of our visit but it didn’t go away. The carpets and curtains need renewing and the furniture looked quite dated. Overall it didn’t feel clean and it was not a relaxing place for us because of that. It just needs a little TLC bc the view is outstanding. We were traveling for our 50th anniversary so our expectations were high and I don’t think the pictures told the story of this place. Next time we’ll rent a top floor instead of bottom level. We’ve stayed at these condos before and the ones that have been updated are worth the price but this one let down our expectations. "
