Hyatt Ka'anapali Beach Residence Club REVIEW - MASTER THREAD
Was doing some late night surfing and looks like we have an opening date scheduled.
http://kaanapalibeach.hyatt.com/en/hotel/home.html
Available for bookings Jan 5, 2015 and beyond.
I called up GHP to ask some questions about the property and found out the following.
The reciprocal access to the HR Maui grounds does not include club access for diamonds, just spa/pool/grounds.
The daily rates are quite high during Jan - ouch! HDR is $1399 to $1899. There's some sort of weird rate displayed atm that is way cheaper.
Points redemptions are not possible yet, system is not loaded. If/when available, will likely be similar to other residence clubs, e.g. 15-18k 1BR, 23K 2BR, 3BR will not be points bookable. Unfortunately, this property may be more difficult to redeem at than the Caramel Highlands location given the distribution of the rooms : 19 1BR, ~100 2BR, and 12 3BR.
Rooms will have a variety of sleeping arrangements including king/queen/sofa sleeper configurations and occupancy might be 4/8/12 depending.
Looking forward to what additional information will come out in the coming months and excited for another Hyatt offering in a wonderful location!

Just got a targeted offer in the mail: $199/night for 5 night stays. I plan to sign up ASAP.

My wife got an offer of $99/night for 5 nights. Plus 10K Hyatt points. Have to do the regular timeshare high pressure sales tour.
Pretty tempting, although the place looks lackluster.
What was this place before?
