1. We stayed at the Ritz for one week this September, and have to say that the negative reviews for this hotel are misleading.

"Bad reviews not deserved! " Read full review on TripAdvisor 9/27/2010 Vote

2. Overall, the Banyan Tree experience was a negative and suprising ( for the Ritz) 2-day blot on an otherwise excellent conference and hotel experience.

7. The only negative I have is that even though we got a good rate I forgot that the food ($20 omelet) drinks ($12 Pina Colada) and activities (my girlfriend paid $15 for a yoga class) would still be pricey but I guess that is what you should expect at the Ritz or any other five star resort.

8. A negative aspect of this hotel, while not against the property itself, is the location.

9. Quite frankly, we couldn't believe some of the negative feedback that was listed for this property.

10. A few negatives- constant wind in Kapalua and the hotel needs to get a decent spa.
