Off-site Parking?
Hello
Just looking for some information for some off-site parking as I will be there for a week in August and do not want to end up with a 200 dollar valet bill. If someone can dm the specs it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Joe

Hello,
I am booked at Andaz maui for 9 nights in September - i called Andaz and i was told even though i paid with points there will be a resort fee, but it didnt looked like she was 100% - anyone who has recently been there who knows for sure if this is true?
Also any reviews of how the food is at andaz? I am vegetarian and am planning to take the $47 per day per person breakfast package and then skip lunch - good idea?

The food is very good. The breakfast has plenty of non-meat options... but if you also eliminate fish (great smoked fish) and dairy (there goes all the griddle and baked options) you will be limited (to the killer fresh fruits and some other stuff).
But won't you have a car? I could never do a Maui trip (of that length for sure) without a car - too many great places to go to (even if all the great other beaches/reefs). Kihei town has tons of great food options, both local and cheap mom and pop and upscale choices... and markets... and if you do eat fish one can make great meals of poke (which can also be purchased in the market at the Wailea Mall if you don't have a car).

I don't think that's really necessary. No resort fee on awards is a published benefit. I wouldn't worry about confirming this prior to arrival. Just point them to the T&C if they try to charge you at check-out.

Hoping someone on here has insight or recently has stayed in similar situation. I have two rooms for 7 nights coming in December. I am a globalist with Hyatt and have myself, wife and 2 kids in one room and my parents, brother and sister in 2nd room. I booked both rooms in my name and my globalist account. What is consensus on breakfast benefit here? I'm pretty sure i will get breakfast on my room but what about second room? Thoughts?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Otherwise, I think you're looking at a $200/day breakfast bill.

if you ask, they will probably say free brekkie on 1 room only
if you just enjoy brekkie and with two bills each morning, i'd say the standardized process for breakfast charge removal would apply to both rooms.
$1000 downside over 7 days if unlucky

Both rooms are 100% all points, however i did both in my name. Should I contact Hyatt and do guest of honor for second room? Or call hotel first and ask if they will just honor as is?

Don't know about the buffet v. hot situation - haven't been in over a year. But then it was buffet-only, pretty sure. This is a very, very good buffet though.
