Our stay had a mix of good and bad experiences. The waterpark was enjoyable for the kids, and the pizza was a nice bonus. However, the check-in process was frustratingly long, and the cleanliness of the room left a lot to be desired. Overall, it was a decent value with the Groupon, but I wouldn’t want to pay full price.

I had a mixed experience at this resort. The water park was fun for the kids, but we encountered recurring hot water issues during our stay, which really affected our comfort. The staff seemed to be dealing with ongoing maintenance problems without a proper solution in place. On the flip side, the room was decent, and the experience at the waterpark made it a bit more enjoyable. Overall, while it has potential, the hot water situation is a significant drawback.

Our family had a great time at Maui Sands, especially with the kids enjoying the waterpark to the fullest. The breakfast spread was quite impressive, and the staff was helpful and courteous throughout our stay. However, we experienced some issues with locker rental instructions and the overall value at regular rates seemed high. Despite the fun atmosphere, we felt some aspects could definitely be improved for a more comfortable stay.
