If more is needed during your stay, you will need to purchase what is needed. Our studio accommodates 2 guests. SHORELINE EROSION: Hawaii has experienced record high surf conditions mostly during winter months, and as a result the Resort experienced severe shoreline erosion, as did many beach on Maui and throughout all of Hawaii. Large sandbags have been placed on the beaches of the resorts on Kahana Bay to protect the shoreline and adjacent buildings. For much of the year the sand returns and covers all but the top layers of the sandbags, allowing for a walk on the beach, beach activities or just relaxing with a good book. However, winter currents, storms and high surf can take away the sand leaving little of no beach in front of the building at times. HOTEL ADVISORY: Royal Kahana is undergoing various projects around the resort. This means noise may be heard in and around the property during working hours M-F: 9 AM- 4:30 PM. Rates have already been discounted to reflect this impact.
