Wailea-Makena, Hawaii hotel rooms at the Independent

"Wonderful!"

"It was really beautiful and relaxing...even with the tsunami scare."

"This property though not a new built is in a good location, it is clean and the grounds are well maintained. Love the garden view from our lanai. A five minute walk from our unit to the beach. Enjoyed proximity to South Maui Gardens/food trucks, groceries , places to eat and shop. Not too happy with the check in staff though who had some kind of condescending attitude . "

"I love this property. The beach access, the staff, the pools (adult pool) totally make the price tag worth it. The food could use a little love, its not bad but not great. Best food options are definitely outside of this hotel. "

"Exceptional stay from start to finish. The staff were warm and attentive, the room was spotless and beautifully appointed, and the amenities exceeded expectations. Perfect location for exploring the area, and the atmosphere made it feel like a true getaway. Would absolutely stay here again. "

"The staff was incredible! Very friendly and great prices"

"Good food great area "

"Luxurious accommodation with beautiful views! Nice uncrowded pool and beach chairs! You buy your own food at Safeway, but it saves you money and you get exactly what you want. It’s so much better than paying $60 a person for a breakfast buffet at the Kea Lani. We chose to skip breakfast there.😂 On our last leg of the trip we both wished we would have picked the Villas over the Kea Lani. It was so much more pleasant at the Villas! The Villas even had an ocean view adults only pool that you didn’t have to fight for a pool chair at 6 am"

"We had an awesome stay! Very clean, very friendly and accommodating! We got engaged and they sent us a beautiful fruit plate and congratulations letter! They also let us check in early and stay late. Absolutely recommend "
