Dated, not clean throughout. Be aware there is no air conditioning so the doors and windows must open and the screens on doors and windows did not fully close so bugs, etc could get in. The pool and bbq area was fine.
Property was very good. Def worth the price. Dont expect a Four Seasons Hotel or a Marriott. Its a nice area.. close to the food and shopping, and you def get your moneys worth staying here.

The room and property was nice but could be cleaner. Overall, the staff was nice and friendly but communication for additional fees, such as cleaning amount did not match what reflected on Expedia, the hotel could do better to email tenants prior to arriving just confirming the exact amounts so what to expect is clearer. The stay was good. No complaints of the room. However, the spa was not hot.

There was no support staff.. Office closed. I had to call the emergency number. Someone answered who helped me but was not very nice about it... Gave me the wrong access code to door by mistake. I had to call back twice. Got in the condo. There was no hot water. The stove did not work, the fridge was dirty, stove was dirty. I checked out the next day 3 days early... Not very happy I was charged for the one night I stayed. Had to take a cold shower. Will never go back.

It was okay but a much larger fee than we really wanted to pay, but was the same as other properties in the area.

It was sufficiently clean but everything was dated. Caulking in the shower and kitchen were starting to separate. Coffee maker, hair dryer, bedroom closet door did not work. Refrigerator was very clean and nice. The location close to Kaunakakai and various eating and shopping spots is great. The grounds and proximity to the beach are also very nice.

The condo was in a great location to get around the island. The grounds and pool were well taken care of. The breeze kept the room cool so we didn't miss the a/c. However, the bedroom did not have curtains. The windows were frosty so you couldn't see in, but at night the lights shined in bright. At night and in the morning the roosters crowed to each other. Also, we had a few roaches we had to kill by spraying the unit.

I liked how I was contacted prior to checking in about the cleaning fees. Also liked the checking in process. Because of work and my short stay I couldn’t enjoy the property but I remembered from previous stay.
Would love the ability to have a later check out at 11 instead of 10

We had a wonderful stay at Molokai Shores Resort. The weather in July was so pleasant; the ocean breeze through the open windows felt good.
Sounds of the birds, wind blowing through the palms and children in the pool, was so pleasant and relaxing. Even the wild chickens were well behaved!
There was a full kitchen supplied with cooking utensils, which we used. The grounds of the resort had friendly neighbors and helpful staff.
The place is less than one mile from family-owned grocery stores, food wagons and eating places.
Thank you!
I didn't like the room selected because it was dirty , filty and dead bugs on the pillow we saw , sorry to say , might not book there again .....

The cleaning charge that was greater than the hotel cost for a single night stay was astounding. And the fact that the hotel staff called incessantly to make me pay the bill before check in, while I was in the middle of work in a remote area on the island, was highly irritating.
Towels with huge holes in was also an unpleasant surprise.

Please don;'t look at Molokai like some tourist trap. Pristine beaches.....no people. You can fish snorkel, chill out and hang with the locals. Don't be in a hurry. Don't gripe about the wild chickens...they were brought by sailors centuries ago and they BELONG there. You are visiting. If you are just willing to listen to and respect the locals you will truly know the meaning of aloha spirit and ohana. If you want to party like some frat boys choose another island. Molokai Shores was life changing.,,, Beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Relaxation. But, not for those who want to party like rock stars.

I arrived at night and didn’t realize there wasn’t a front desk. My phone had no signal, so I couldn’t make a call. A guy who lived there was outside and let me borrow his phone, so I was then able to call and get instructions. There was apparently a key box, and they gave me the code. However, I couldn’t figure out how to open the key box, so I went back to that same guy, and, between the two of us, we figured it out. It was very frustrating getting inside, but once I did, I really liked the accommodations. It also took me a few days to acclimate with no air conditioning, as the place was hot for a couple of days getting aired out. Very pretty place though and a great location!

The office is not good at communicating with their customers. The close before the stated office hours, they do not return phone calls and do not follow through on their commitments. The office called me because they claimed expedia did not charge extra fees, even though I was charged more than the rate of the room for cleaning. I relented amd let them charge me an additional fee, as I was already on my island hopping trip and would be unable to book anything so last minute. The office associate verified my email address on file and told me that I would receive a receipt. That was 2 weeks ago. Unresponsive and unreliable describes this hotel and its office workers.

Molokai Hospitality
Molokai Shores is a gorgeous property and the hospitality of the management is next level. The only thing to note is that the room you receive is not necessarily the room you get - my room was pretty disappointing as the unit was really old and hadn't been maintained well. However, the kindness of Shannon and Charmaine at Castle Molokai Shores more than made up for it. I highly recommend a stay here.
