This is a wonderful hotel. The rooms are beautifully decorated and exceptionally clean. We ate at both the breakfast buffet/with the ability to order and the outdoor bar and restaurant. The food was fresh tasting and absolutely delicious. The staff is welcoming, helpful and friendly. There is a pool area with an infinity pool and hot tub. There are even lounge seats in the pool. The location is great, walking distance to the public beach and shops at Wailea. The public beach is in a beautiful cove with a nice beach area and good snorkeling and a bathroom. I will absolutely return to this hotel. What a great find.

As a Marriott Bonvoy member, I chose the AC Hotel Maui Wailea with confidence, expecting a level of service and quality consistent with the Marriott brand. Unfortunately, my experience has been disappointing and did not align with the expectations created by the hotel’s advertising, pricing, or Marriott’s reputation.

The most noticeable issue is staffing. There appears to be very limited staff available throughout the property. In addition, I observed individuals who appeared to be hotel employees working throughout the property while out of uniform and wearing flip-flops, making it difficult to identify staff members and creating an unprofessional impression.

Security was also a concern. During my stay, I noticed what appeared to be only a single visible security camera located near the front desk. I did not observe cameras near the elevators or in other common guest areas. While I understand not all security measures are visible, the apparent lack of security monitoring in key areas did not provide the level of confidence and peace of mind I would expect from a property charging premium rates.

Housekeeping service was inconsistent during my stay, often arriving after 4:00 PM, and on multiple occasions I had to contact the front desk to request service. Basic essentials such as toilet paper and other room supplies were not consistently replenished.

The property charges $40 per day for parking, yet valet service is not offered. Given the parking fee, I expected a higher

Overall, the property and amenities are very nice. However, you automatically have to pay $40 per night for parking with no valet option. The parking is also very limited & not well lit at night which is concerning as a solo traveler. There also isn’t any concierge available to help with luggage.

The room was not very clean, couch and shower were dirty. When arriving they offered a small card with your benefits including daily credit back, complimentary water bottles and complimentary beach towels. Instead of offering them to you at your arrival, it was like pulling teeth constantly having to go back to the front desk to ask for the complimentary items. Seemed a bit shady like if you didn’t read the card you wouldn’t get anything.

Leaving, I required them to adjust the invoice since they didn’t apply the correct credit back.

The pool was nice and decent pool food.

Unfortunately, our experience at the hotel was disappointing. The breakfast was very poor, both in quality and service, and the staff at breakfast did not feel welcoming or attentive. In addition, the man at the front desk was not friendly or helpful.

In my opinion, this hotel is only suitable if you plan to spend most of your time outside exploring and just need a place to sleep. It’s not the kind of hotel I would recommend for a relaxing vacation where you want to stay at the property and enjoy the facilities throughout the day.

Would give 3.5 stars if I could add a half star. This is one of the newer resorts in Wailea I think. A little further up from the beach but still very close so that shouldn't be a deterrent. Staff were excellent which is the bulk of the 3.5 stars and the pool area is quite beautiful. However- the restaurant is terrible. Ate there multiple times due to no other options because of the Kona storm. Minimal effort, the food is BAD (except the fries, those are great!). Overpriced. At one point I ordered a chicken caesar salad- I got a salad but certainly not that. A pile of lettuce, parmesan shards from a shaker, and a small pile of teriyaki chicken, slightly overcooked. Bizarre. No room service which is disappointing but they have a mobile pick-up service where they put your food in take-out containers and you get it at the front desk. Not much else in terms of amenities. The hotel itself is crazy overpriced for what you get- if they reduced the rooms a little then it would be more understandable. But the staff really are excellent which is the saving grace.

The room had no dresser, two small drawers under the fridge was not sufficient for two people staying a whole week. And the room was very small. The bed was horrible along with the pillows. The toilet felt like i was sitting on a bench. The coffee pot was awkaward ended up up moving it into the bathroom to fill with water.
The view of the ocean for us was only available from balcony.

Staff was absolutely amazing. Loved all of them. It was great having the outdoor bar there.

The pool was beautiful but way too cold, not heated i dont think, for comfortable use

It was very low key and quiet which was good.
Food was ok.

Location within 10 min walk to grand wailea for water sports if desired and the wailea mall.

I thought the quality of food was of good value. I would definitely stay here again. I will say that if you are on the street side and traffics noise bothers you. Upgrade and stay on the side overlooking the pool and scenery. All in all it was a beautiful location with plenty of amenities within a smaller more intimate but very relaxing resort.

It’s actually a bit too south. If you need to go to Lahaina, north part of Maui such as Sunday Market or road to Hana, the location is not as convenient as Kihei and the cost is relatively high. Secondly, if not facing pool, it’s too noisy if you are easily woken up. Other than these two, the hotel itself is really nice and beautiful. You can even see green plants in the mirror, which really light up my mind when dressing up.
