The best thing about this unit is its location. It is close to a beautiful beach with plenty of shopping, restaurants, etc, around and the sunset is to die for. I would recommend the food truck park not far from there and definitely the Cones at Kihei for dessert.
The unit seemed small at first when you walk in, but in a bit you realize there’s enough room for all. The couch could be cleaner, and turns into an extra bed. We were a bit alarmed to see some paint cans in the secondary bedroom closet. Is that safe lol? No other issues with the unit and was comfy.
The kids liked that it was right next to pickleball and the swimming pool wasn’t far. You could walk to the beach, but if you are carrying a lot of stuff, it’s easier to drive to the road and park (free and easy to find a spot). I liked the unit was close to the rear parking. But do park only at the open uncovered spots and fill out the parking form. I saw another car get a ticket.
The host says she allows late checkout for 75$ if no one’s checking in, but when we asked more than a week in advance, she could not allow it because the cleaners didn’t want to come at a later time. She let us checkout at noon for $60, which helped too, since everyone was dead tired after our road to Hana drive the previous day. Also, the wifi had changed and we couldn’t find out what it was till the next day. All these are tiny issues, but just wanted to put it out there.
Overall we liked it and highly recommend this place.

Spent a week here with my family, we all loved it. Easily a 15 minute drive to anything in south Maui and only 25 minutes away from the airport and a few steps away from the elevator so we didn't have to carry bags up the steps.
We loved that they had everything that we needed in the room, towels, washer snd dryer, beach equipment. Parking right by the room and the pool was only a short walk away.
Would definitely recommend to stay here

We've stayed in this condo complex before so we already knew it was a great location etc. The unit itself was clean, well stocked, and an easy walk from the parking lot. Great communication from the host as well. If you're looking for a 2 bed/2 bath within walking distance of a whole lot, I don't see how you could do much better.

Great location..right up the street from a beach, close to boat that took us snorkeling, and where we did surf lessons…also steps from shops and a few breakfast places so very convenient! Had towels and boogie boards which was a nice plus and great communication from host!

Loved the location, short downhill walk to a great beach for the kids (Kamaole Beach Park I). Separate quiet AC in each room is a huge plus. Very clean and well-equipped. There are restaurants within walking distance. Safeway is a short drive away. Even though it’s only a partial ocean view, the view of the mountain is beautiful. There is another unit upstairs so you will hear a little noise if it’s occupied, but people all seem well behaved here. We would happily return!

This is a nice place to stay but the check-in process was not. The Vrbo listing states check-in time is 3:00 PM and instructions emailed to me from the owner says check-in time is 2:00 PM. We arrived about 2:30 PM and the unit was still being cleaned. The cleaners said to come back in an hour which we did, but at 3:30 PM it was still not ready The cleaners said to me that their boss told them they had until 4:00 PM to get the unit cleaned. So we waited and then they finally were finished by 4:15 PM. I called the owner about this and left a voicemail suggesting she needs to update the check-in time and also asked her if there was any equipment available to play shuffleboard, but she never responded back.

The condo was spacious and clean, with everything we needed for an enjoyable vacation. There were ample towels and beach gear for the six of us. The air conditioning worked great and the ceiling fans kept us cool when the air wasn't on. Two bathrooms provided us with enough space to get ready for our nightly outings. We will definately keep this condo in mind for our next trip to Maui. Prayers for west Maui.

We loved the condo! It’s spacious, clean, equipped with everything you need for a beach vacation and awesome location close to the beach. Our family of 4 adults, two children slept comfortably and enjoyed the pool and spa everyday. It was our first time in Maui and we loved every moment. The condo was well located to explore other parts of Maui plus lots of local eateries and shops were handy. Also having our own washer, dryer was fantastic. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

I agree with other renters. Everything you need in for a stay in Kihei. Great air conditioning which we only needed intermittently. Large main lanai. Close to the parking area which made bringing luggage/groceries in very easy. The walk from the beach/shopping was steeper than other places we stayed but we were maybe being a bit wimpy. It is totally doable, and we chose to walk down and up more times than we used our rental car. This condo is so quiet (aside from the roosters but they are unavoidable). We definitely will be back. As will friends who stayed at another busier condo complex. Thank you Carol!

Carol was an amazing host, always responding quickly when I had questions. She went above and beyond trying to accommodate us when the airline changed our flight dates.
The condo is in the perfect location for access to the beach, restaurants and shopping in Kihei. For anyone with mobility issues, the condo is accessible by elevator and there are no stairs to get in to this particular condo. Because the complex is built going up and away from the ocean, different units are at different levels, so not all are accessible or have elevator access.
Parking is close, bbq’s are just steps away from the door and we used them and then ate on the lanai enjoying the ocean view. The condo is well equipped with everything needed for a vacation.
We loved our stay in Carol’s condo and would definitely stay here again if she would have us.

This was our first experience booking with vrbo, it was a seem less, no problem renting process.
We were very pleased with this condo the pics don’t show how fantastic it really is. Our family of 7, fit comfortably and we’re so very glad to have stayed here. The washer and dryer came in handy and the kitchen was well supplied. We would absolutely recommend this place for families to stay. All this and a partial ocean view. Loved it!!

We stayed here with our 5 children ages 11-18. The pull out couch provided plenty of sleeping space for all 7 of us. The location is great in Kihei with easy access to several close dining spots and loved the convenience of the free parking and quick check in for parking pass. This is a great spot for getting to Hana, Lahaina and close to the airport. The room provided 7 towels and had 2 coolers that could be used to keep drinks cool. Also had 7 beach chairs and some shovels and buckets. Very happy with the experience!
July 2022
We loved everything about our stay! The unit was amazing and they had everything we needed to have an amazing stay! You will not regret going here!

We liked the condo layout and location. The condo has a well equipped kitchen and a well equipped locker with beach stuff.
We enjoyed the short walk to a nice beach and easy access to several shops. We had five people in our group, but I think it would be crowded with the maximum of seven.

This condo is fantastic. It’s well equipped, comfortable, a nice size and walking distance to so many great things in Kihei. The pool and pickle ball court are fantastic as well. It was clean, super well stocked and a great home base for our family (incl. 2 teenage boys) . The pictures do this place justice. You will not be disappointed. Highly recommended.

can’t say enough nice things about this place. most of the rental properties i’ve stayed in are “adequate” at best, but this space was incredibly comfortable (separate temperature controls for each bedroom and the living room was a plus), well-appointed, and well-stocked (yay for more than 4 forks! and a cabinet full of spices! and a bin full of beach toys! etc). huge countertop space was a bonus for the nights we stayed in and cooked. everything was exactly as described and communication with the host was excellent. location just a block from the ocean was perfect, but also having a rear unit near parking and grills was great. i will miss the sunsets from the lanai! we would stay here again in a heartbeat.
Julie H.
June 2022
This condo was exactly as described. It is located in a very convenient spot near the elevator. It was one level up from the parking area and the grills, pickleball and shuffleboard courts were just outside the unit with a great view of Haleakalā. The unit had individual a/c units that we only needed to use at night because there was a fabulous breeze everyday due to the tradewinds. The kitchen was well equipped and there was plenty of seating for our family of 7. Plenty of coolers, beach chairs, toys and towels were provided. When we checked in, the closet door to the laundry area was off the hinges. I contacted the owner right away as the management company was closed due to a holiday and someone was out to fix it the next day.
We couldn’t figure out how to lock the sliding doors, but being on the third floor, we didn’t mind too much that they weren’t locked.
The only downfalls we found were that there was a cable box but not one local channel to watch and the hot water heater was so small that our whole crew of 7 couldn’t shower before dinner without someone (or two) getting a cold shower. A nice addition would be a place to lock up valuables.
Overall, we really enjoyed this property and would absolutely book it again.

2 bedroom condo has a peakaboo view of the beach and walking distance to Kamaole beach 2 on the 3rd floor with an elevator. The kitchen was fully stocked and the rooms were a comfortable size. We hardly used the AC in all rooms since the trade winds and fans kept us cool. It has a big pool and jacuzzi. We would rent it again.
Leslie G.
April 2022
It was very clean. It was also very very quiet. My only negative comment would be that the fridge handle was broken and had been commented on before that it was broken...so still not fixed. I also believe I saw a comment about the railing on the living room lani being broken. the rail was not attached on one section and that is a safty hazard and should be fixed immediately. Other than that I would stay here again. it was very pleasant, clean and very quiet.

Recently returned from a week-long visit to Maui with my wife and in-laws. We had a very nice experience.
The property has a near ideal location. It's about a block and a half from the beach, which from our surveying was the nicest beach in Kihei. It's on a private road and has ample parking. It's on the second floor, but is really close to the elevator; this was really important to us, as my in-laws have some mobility issues.
Check-in was about as easy as it gets. Get a door code from the owner, and register your car with the unmanned welcome office, and you're good to go. Took about five minutes, if that.
The complex was pretty nice too. I'm estimating there are 60 units, spread among four or five buildings. There's a community pool and hot tub in the center. It's just a couple minute walk and was never too crowded during our stay. There are some shared outdoor dining areas and tennis/shuffleboard courts, though we didn't use them. Finally, there are also outdoor gas grills, which are about 20 feet from the entrance to the condo -- super convenient!
As far as the unit, I feel like it is spot-on with the pictures. The beds and sofa were really comfortable. The air conditioning worked great. The kitchen was well-stocked and we cooked most of our meals there. The balconies were fantastic -- my in-laws loved sitting out there for hours on end. We had a couple of minor maintenance issues (for example, the fridge door handle was broken), but the owner was very responsive, and a repair crew came out the next day. I'm not sure all the floors had been mopped before we arrived (the bottoms of our feet suggested not), but there are cleaning supplies in the unit and we took care of it in short order.
Honestly, for the price, this place was a fantastic find. Would go back in a heartbeat.

This condo is GREAT! It was impeccably clean, felt at home immediately, liked that the grills were nearby, host was extremely responsive and LOVED that each bedroom had an AC. I am also finding that the availability of condos for a year out is becoming limited so do NOT delay in booking sooner than later. We loved it so much that we are returning to the same unit 2 more times within the next year. Mahalo, Natalie

The unit was easily accessible from the back parking lot and the elevator/ stairs. The condo was spacious, clean, well-equipped and comfortable; like home. It was in the perfect location: walking distance to a beautiful beach and great food and a short drive to everything you want and need. The description given is a true representation of what is included, from the amenities to the view.

Everything you need and more is already provided in the condo. Location is walking distance from many great restaurants and food trucks. Less than a 5 minute walk from the beach. Check in process was smooth. Parking is plentiful. Neighbors were quiet. Overall cleanliness was good. The only concern that I had is that some of the ACs had a slight damp smell.

We loved our 1 week stay at this condo! The unit is nicely located in the heart of south Kihei, and we really enjoyed the walkability of the neighborhood. It was easy to walk to the beach, stores, restaurants and bars! Carol (the host) was very attentive to questions we had leading up to and during our stay. The kitchen is very well set-up, with all the necessary tools for cooking. My husband and I traveled with our 3 kids, so it was nice to have 2 designated bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms to help us stay comfortable. We also loved the 2 lanais, which gave us ample opportunity to spend time as a family on one and/or have a little alone time on the other. The condo comes with many other nice amenities, such as beach chairs for all, boogie boards, sun umbrellas and life jackets. The community pool is easy to access and there are even Pickle ball courts right outside the unit! The views were great and we definitely took advantage of watching the Maui sunsets. We really loved our trip and our stay and would easily come back here again!

My family of 6 stayed at this property and we had the best time!
The location is amazing! Walking distance from the beach, plenty of places to eat, places to rent SUP boards, snorkeling equipment, etc...
The property was spacious and comfortable for our family of 6. The owners have beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, and ice chests you can use! It is crazy convenient!!
We looked into renting in Wailea but chose Kihei and I’m so glad we did!
The owner was amazing to work with! Always quick to respond when I had questions and very friendly!
If you’re looking for convenience & comfort at an affordable price - this is the place for you!!

Carole was amazing to work with and she accommodated all our request and questions we had.

The beach was great and also offered a couple of reefs for snorkeling a little if you wanted. The property was spacious and clean and met all our needs.

Our group of 6 family members stayed here for 8 nights and really enjoyed it. We bought a twin airbed and it fit into the one bedroom along with the queen and twin beds already there. That left the livingroom available for those staying up late or getting up early. There were lots of supplies of everything including spices. Towels, plates, cutlery, beach towels, even laundry detergent. The only thing we needed was dishwasher and dish detergent. Comfy beds, couches and patio furniture.
The pool and hot tub were great at the end of the day. The beach at the bottom of the road is fantastic. Sandy and calm especially in the morning the days we were there. There are also some rocky areas on the south edge of the beach where it was good to snorkel. We saw turtles just standing in the water. They swam right by us.
There are restaurants and shops galore at the bottom of the street. Everything from food trucks and fast food to sit down high end restaurants. We especially enjoyed Moose McGillycuddy's. Also Maui gelato has excellent ice cream! Lots of great souvenir shops too.
Carol was good to deal with. Questions were answered promptly when first inquiring. Everything was as it stated on the listing. Refund was also prompt. I would highly recommend this unit and would certainly use it again if we come back to Kihei. I certainly would like to as the area is beautiful. Thanks Carol for letting us use your unit!

rooms are spacious. although condo smack in middle of Kehei, the road is a dead end and so traffic and hustle bustle of the area is far away as far as noise goes. easy downhill walk to beach, 5 minute. appreciated the laundry center in the condo. easy convenient.

We had a awesome vacation in Maui. Staying in Kihei was a perfect location, only a block away from a very nice beach and not too crowded. We loved the condo, it was exactly as described. Carol did a great job answering any of our questions and gave great suggestions on where to go and what to see while we were there. The boogie boards, beach chairs and umbrella were very useful on our many trips to the beach. We would highly recommend the area and condo!

We have stayed in many places in the Alii Kai and have to say this is one of the most accommodating for two couples. Plus we enjoyed the lanai in the afternoon because of the shade. Close for parking and just a few step to the BBQ. Has everything needed for a months stay. And Carol was very attentive and easy to deal with.

Beautiful property.Very convenient access to the beach,groceries as well as other shopping areas and restaurants.On a side note we were a party of 7 and they just had 3 rolls of bath tissues and 1 roll of kitchen towel which was a little inadequate although not a deal breaker by any means.On a positive note the garbage disposal in the kitchen sink was not working and it was fixed for us promptly the very next morning.Overall enjoyed our stay at this property.Will definitely recommend to friends and family.

We loved the location! So much around you even at walking distance such as food, shopping, and gas station. The beach is just down the street and there were beach towels, beach chairs, boogie boards and coolers available to use! Loved that the kitchen was fully stocked with utensils, plates, and pans!
Only complaint we had was the couch/sofa bed feeling griddy and not clean, but Carol (the owner) got in contact with the cleaners right away and the cleaner came promptly!
As mentioned in the instructions there are some bugs around the condo such as ants, so definitely be mindful of food out and just wipe down the counters after eating!
Overall, had a great Maui experience, felt it was so short (even though we were there for a week) and would love to come back! :)
