Check-in
Check-in at Kaanapali Alii begins scheduled for 4 p.m. So I was surprised when I arrived just after 2.30 p.m. I was informed that the unit was ready. The process was easy and smooth, with the employee at the hotel taking a credit/debit card and verifying I was in a 2-bedroom apartment with views of the ocean.
