Aston at the Maui Banyan

10/10 Excellent

"Very attentive staff. Cooler and ice packs and storage containers available for daily treks around the island. Bed was very soft- good for some maybe not for others. Bring coffee if you are a regular drinker like I am oh and filters. There was enough coffee and filter for one pot provided. No condiments in the kitchen but plenty of everything else ie: plates, cups, scissors, spatulas mixing bowls etc. Cooking any meal was easy done."
