Aston Kaanapali Shores combines Hawaiian-style rental condos with a laid-back resort atmosphere. The beachfront resort offers easy access to arguably the nicest stretch of sand in the world - Kaanapali Beach - the resort features beautiful grounds with lush tropical gardens. You’ll have two pools to choose from: an ocean pool and a garden pool. Go for a swim, or grab a refreshing drink from the poolside bar and relax in a lounge chair. When it’s time for lunch, have a family cookout on the bbq grills, or dine at the on-site restaurant, the Beach Club Restaurant and Bar. Kids aged five through twelve will have a blast at the on-site children’s day camp, Camp Kaanapali. Reservations must be made twenty-four hours in advance to ensure that your child can enjoy the arts and crafts, nature walks, games, hula dancing, scavenger hunts, lei making and other fun activities. While the kids are occupied at day camp, visit the tennis courts and get in touch with your inner athlete.

Air-conditioned studio, one- and two-bedroom condos sleep six to seven guests. Make a shopping list and head across the street to the Times Supermarket to stock your full kitchen. There’s no shortage of in-suite entertainment at Aston Kaanapali Shores. Flat screen TVs have cable, perfect for watching the latest episode of your favorite show. Challenge the kids to a game on the PlayStation 3. It also plays BluRays, so pack a few favorites from home to watch. Gather everyone on the couch with a selection of snacks and get ready for a fun family movie night. One- and two-bedroom condos have in-suite washer/dryers, allowing you to pack light.
