Oh, boy... I'm going to start this review off with a disclaimer: in no way are my complaints & frustrations directed at the Aston Maui Hill staff. Everyone--front desk folks, groundskeepers, & housekeeping--was wonderful. Trip details: my partner and I stayed here October 2024. Total trip time: 3 days, 2 nights, and we stayed in unit #6. Initially, we were excited. I'd booked a 1 bedroom unit, but we were upgraded to a 2 bedroom at check-in. That's always a nice surprise! Then, we got to the condo. It was nice, enough. Some of the furnishings (beds, living room couch, etc.) and appliances (stove, fridge, etc.) were dated, but everything was in good working condition and the cabinets were fully stocked. Our unit also had in-wall AC units & ceiling fans in the living room and bedroom, plus a partial, yet pretty distant, view of the ocean. Then, all hell broke loose. About 30 minutes in, we started noticing teeny, tiny ants roaming the house (just a couple). I'm telling you: these were much smaller than typical ants, but FAST as HELL. Initially, we didn't sweat it. There were only a few; no big deal. Later, we fixed a small dinner (scrambled eggs and some fruit); we put the egg shells and fruit pits into the kitchen trashcan, which sat near a slatted glass window. Within TWO HOURS, the condo was overrun with ants. I'm talking a huge, swarming swell of tiny ants going for the TWO THINGS we'd thrown into the trashcan (nothing else was in there). By the time we saw them swarming, they'd breeched the living room & had gone into our luggage hunting for more food. I don't know a worse feeling than ants (or any critters) in your luggage. Incidentally, it was also impossible to tell whether we'd gotten them all because our luggage (and their tiny bodies) were both black. Cue paranoia that we'd accidentally bring them home, and even worse paranoia that they were a Special Kind of Ant that bites or who knows what else. We promptly took out the trash and sprayed the gathered throng with cleaning solution. (Couldn't find any bug spray in the condo & it was midnight, so no stores open.) But by then, it was too late. Over our 3 day stay, more ants came from all over (window by the kitchen; the patio doors; etc.), following the pheromones of their fallen brethren, seeking (presumably) food. We couldn't even sit on the couch, as they'd taken that over, too--and seemed to be going after something *behind* the couch. Which tells me that other food residue (NOT ours, we never ate on or near that couch) for the next couple of days. No matter how many we killed, we couldn't get rid of them completely. Obviously, Maui is a tropical island. Bugs and critters are to be expected, especially when staying at small(er) condo properties instead of large hotel-style resorts. But this was my 4th time visiting Maui; all previous trips, I stayed in small condos and NEVER ONCE experienced a pest outbreak like this. I might not have minded if it'd taken a few days for the ants to come around, but their immediate presence makes me think this is a known problem that hasn't been fixed or sprayed for. This nearly ruined the trip. We'd come from a different (wonderful) property earlier in the week, but ending the trip here made us want to come home early. This may not be a problem in every unit, but I can't suggest this property given the issues, nor would I stay here again in the future. I already filled out their hotel survey with this information, but figured other travelers should know about this, too.
Very nice

The staff members were friendly. The apartment was way too big for two persons. ItThere was a full equipped kitchen and a fridge. The apartment also had two balconys. Unfortunately the pool was closed but we had known that before we booked. Its also a bit too pricey if you only use the apartment for sleeping.
Great location!!

The unit (35) was well appointed, clean and comfortable. We loved the deck and French doors. It was also quiet and restful. The staff was kind and helpful. The location so close to Wailea is great. Also, the beach just short walk is great. We loved our stay!
Very nice stay, worth the money.

Amazing management and services throughout the stay. The pool was under construction, but the place was very clean and enjoyable, as well as the location nearby was just perfect for water activities. Restaurants nearby are not that great, but you can grab some stuff to cook from nearby Safeway.
Maui Hill 2024

We enjoyed our week stay at Maui Hill. It is conveniently located near Kamaole beach and many restaurants in Wailea. We had a spacious three bedroom unit with a lanai on the front and back. It was nice to sit on the lanai each morning and watch and listen to the all the birds. It is a beautiful property to walk around with many tropical plants including many plumeria trees. All the staff was very friendly and general manager Dennis was very helpful during our stay.
