Hi Jeeves - would love to hear what you have to say about the current condition of the Ren. Wailea when you reurn. We have points ressies for both the Ren and the Marriott Wailea for April and I cannot decide which to pick, I am afraid that the rooms at the Ren are just going to be to worn and neglected. If you happen to stroll past the Marriott, I would truly appreciate an evaluation of the current construction. THANKS!

I stayed at the Ren Wailea last year and the room was in good condition. We had no special view but also didn't pay much. I believe we were offered a paid upgrade at check-in, which we declined.
I've got the same Silver status this year and again will be paying a fairly low rate.
We thought the conceirge desk was awesome and the front desk was kind of lacking. We ate breakfast at the hotel one morning and the place was not well run. The hotel pool is about the size of my backyard pool. The beach is great and we liked everything else about the hotel.
I'll try to post a report when I return.

I stayed for a night there in late January and asked about the closing and a got a shrug of the shoulders "they keep changing the dates" response... so wouldn't be surprised if it keeps slipping...

As I sit here on the balcony of the 7th floor listening to the pounding of the waves in the middle of the night, somehow the office and the cares of the world seem far away....

I know preciselly what you mean. It's just killing me that we've not been able to get out there for one last visit yet.

Sluggy - sounds fabulous to be there right about now! I am sitting here on my second floor listening to the wind howl.
So - are the room fabrics and carpets clean? Walls and wallpaper? I am picky, and even for free don't want to ruin a special vacation by choosing a hotel that is not up to par.
What is is looking like over at the Marriott, construction wise?
Jeeves- thank you for offering to review upon your return. I think it will be very interesting to see your comparison from your prior years stays.

Also I would add that the best part for me is the grounds. It gives you the lush, tropical feeling; if you can't feel romantic here you better get the defib paddles out....
I only walked through the Marriott once. The motor lobby area was blocked off and we had to take a circuitous route to get there from the beach side.

Thanks for the update, Sluggy! I appreciate the follow up. If the rooms and carpet are clean, I might stay there instead of the Marriott. You mention the lobby construction at the Marriott, was the pool under construction too? By the way, Marriott emailed me the name of the Platinum Liason at the Ren, Candy Medinas and I tried to send her an email today but it was returned. Do you know if they still have a Plat Liason at the Ren?

That should be the correct name of the Liason - we couldn't check into our room until after 3pm because of a Plat who was taking too long to leave. She actually walked us up to the room, gave us a few drink coupons, did some research on some reservations and was extremely friendly and nice.

Not sure if you are referring to the Marriott or the Ren, but there are a number of past threads on both. I did a quick search, the following might be of interest:
