I don't have the hotel's concierge email addresses, but you should be able to either call the hotels directly to get that info or call MR and ask them to get it for you.

We just stayed at the Wailea Marriott the 4th-11th and love it. On a Honeymoon the adults only infinity pool is really nice. Here is the info from the Guest Service Coordinator we had correspondance with prior to our stay.

Thanks so much for all the help!!
We are really looking forward to our trip.
My husband is Platinum and would it help to email ahead of time to get an upgraded room?
Do I just email the hotel or GM directly?
WE are celebrate an anniversary and a birthday.
Thanks again, I appreciate the replies.

I am not convinced this makes a lot of difference - they upgrade you if they need to. When we went, we were upgraded, first I knew was checking Marriott.com website 2-3 days out, it then changed again (up) a day before. When we checked in, we were offered a further upgrade (suite) for $$$, which we regretted later not taking - though the room we had was great.

Resort fee
If you get 2 rooms, one for the parents and one for the kids connecting, do they make you pay the resort fee twice? I went for the room I wanted up front instead of hoping for the upgrade that never comes there.

I did not use the safe, and did not find it necessary to hide or store my laptop anywhere than on the desk.

We are a family of 5 and have a 2 bedroom suite booked. It's classified as ocean view but according to the hotel map, the suites are in the Haleakala tower, which seems quite far from the ocean compared to the other hale. It also seems that it's a side view rather than an ocean facing view. Can anyone please comment on the location of the suites-are they truly ocean view? Also, the rooms look a little sterile with the tile floors-can anyone comment on the room feel? Thanks so much.

Quick version: Ocean view doesn't mean you're on the beach
Hope this clears up your question regarding ocean view and room placement.

Thank you for your reply. I know the difference between ocean-view and oceanfront, having been to the Hawaiian Islands 10 times... I'm wondering about this specific location as I would enjoy a suite, but not a suite with a limited view. Seems strange that they put all their suites in the same area of such a a large resort.

Something I travel with is a laptop lock. It won't stop determined thieves, but it at least makes it a little more difficult to wander away with the laptop.

PS. My suite was an endcap ONE BEDROOM SUITE, so I am sure that two bedroom suites would also be endcaps, but if you want to be sure, just call the hotel and ask, they are very accommodating! 808-879-1922

Thanks, US
I'm usually not so picky about the view but it's the first time we'll be in Maui for whale season and I wanted to see the proverbial "whale's breaching from my lanai" By endcap, I think you mean it juts out from the building? Also, did the suites, besides a living room, have anything "special" about them compared to a regular room-such as the bathroom? Were the floors tile, carpet, wood or a combo? Finally, did you get a lei greeting or does the Marriott not do that? Thanks again!
