Yes. In our unit there were two air conditioners - one in the bedroom an one in the living room area. We found that just having the living room one on when we went to bed kept it quieter for sleep, and we were still comfortably cool.

The studios do not have laundry facilities, unlike the 1 bedroom and 2 bedroom suites. I washed my clothes in the shower and left them to dry on the chairs on the lanai. All rooms have a lanai.

We did

The 19 two bedroom units that are part of the Maui Banyan Vacation Club (Soliel Management) are all uniformly decorated and maintained. Those units consist of a one bedroom fully equipped unit and a lock-off studio unit that has a mini frig and microwave. The washer/dryer are in the one bedroom portion. The bathrooms in the studio portion are a bit cramped and the bathroom in the one bedroom portion is superior. The patio on the studio is small -- only good for a cup of coffee or glass of wine. The patio that goes with the one bedroom is big enough for four to eat outside. The patio furniture is pretty basic. Soliel Management contracts with Aston to handle the checking in and checking out process and Aston maintains the exteriors and common areas, such as the pools and BBQs. The BBQs are by the pools and worked fine and were clean when we visited in February/March. The pools and spas were busy in the evenings and shut down at 10:00 p.m. They seemed well maintained. The hallway maintenance isn't as good as the landscaping -- lots of chipped paint, worn rugs, marks on walls, etc. The landscaping is kept in acceptable condition, nothing real fancy. The Maui Banyan Vacation Club units are quite adequate for most person's expectations, well-equipped functional kitchen with reasonably comfortable furniture although not high-end. The Maui Banyan Vacation Club units are scattered about the complex and some locations, such as I have stayed in -- middle of the complex several stories up, looking east with nice views stretching from Haleakala to the ocean -- are much preferable to the three or so units down by South Kihei Road. The units facing the pools and landscaped grounds are much more desirable than the units facing the garage and tennis court. I am told that Aston tries to assign the more desirable units to persons owning Maui Banyan Vacation Club timeshares and that the less desirable locations typically are assigned to persons who obtained a trade through one of the trading services. The Aston maintained units are all individually owned and their decoration and maintenance can vary significantly.
