"We're extremely pleased to add the ASTON Maui Islander to our property list, particularly with the growing westbound numbers and the strong U.S. mainland economy," said Andre' Tatibouet, chairman and CEO of ASTON Hotels & Resorts. "The westbound numbers appear to confirm that Maui is the most sought after destination in the state. By adding the ASTON Maui Islander, ASTON is being responsive to our client and customer base. We now offer more than 2,200 hotel and condominium resort accommodations on Maui at prime locations in Kaanapali, Lahaina, Kihei and Wailea. Better yet, we offer properties across all price points and have more than triple the number of accorumodations as our nearest competitor."
"Our value pricing and convenient central location in historic Lahaina Town are strong selling points for this property," said Jean Fredericks, general manager of the AS TON Maui Islander.
