The magic of Maui is captivating throughout the year, so the best time to visit a Maui timeshare is really anytime – whenever it fits into your travel plans.
The weather is great, with the famous sunshine and warmth throughout the year consistent with the notoriety of the Hawaiian Islands. Spectacular beaches, wonderful watersports, incredible scenery and the relaxing vibe of the Pacific islands all combine for some of the best timeshare vacation experiences on the planet.
Golf? Check. Waterfalls? Check. Dormant volcano? Got that too. Rain forest hiking and nature walks? Some of the best in Hawaii. Plus, the history and culture of Maui is unique, from the development of its agriculture and the inter-island battles to the chiefdoms, the visit from Captain James Cook in 1778 and the establishment of the whaling industry in Lahaina.
Today, the only whaling that takes place off the coast of Maui are the tour boats looking for whale-watching spectacles such as breaching humpback whales.
The resorts mentioned below congregate in two primary areas of Maui, the Lahaina/Kaanapali area and the Kihei area off Maalaea Bay – both on the western side of the island.
Lahaina – not only can you find the famous 60-ft banyan tree which dates back to 1873, but this former capital of the Kingdom of Hawaii has restaurants, shops, fishing charters and downtown is just minutes from famous Kaanapali Beach.
Kihei – on Maui’s southwest shore, this is considered the sunniest, driest part of the island. Six miles of beach features amazing swimming, snorkeling, kayaking and even birdwatching at nearby Kealia Pond at the northern end of the area. There is also the Maui Ocean Center to explore.
Below you’ll see our top 10 most popular Maui timeshare resorts based on the feedback from our visitors looking to buy or looking for more information about the resorts. Resorts are shown in reverse order, counting down to the most popular.

This legendary Westin timeshare resort has been in high demand ever since its opening in 2003, so regardless of whether you stay in this building or its sister building North, this property is always a home run for Maui timeshare vacationers.

Separate pools for adults and the kiddies plus waterfalls, gardens, onsite bar, restaurant and gift shop mean you never have to leave the resort. But you’ll want to explore as much of Maui as possible from your homebase of either your one- or two-bedroom villa.
