We enjoyed our stay at Kihei Akahi. The unit is a bit outdated and could use some updates. Also the cleanliness could use some attention to detail. But overall it was fine. Would definitely stay again

Check in was not received until after check in time owner said his phone was dead. Manager did not return calls about issues from Wednesday to Saturday morning.
I did a list of needed repairs and texted to both manager Scott on island and Tyler who is owner off island.
It is okay amenities wise with great location and people who dont really seem to care

The house itself, view, parking, location and check in and out was better than expected. Great place to stay!

When we arrived the place smelled a little musty, like the place had not been opened for a while. It was spacious and the balcony and patio were awesome. We really liked the space, the rooms and multiple bathrooms. There were many things that could and should be updated. The most concerning was the dirty carpet on the stairs but the owner informed us that it was being replaced the day after we left. If there was even just some touch up painting done, it would really give the place a new look.
We just felt that for the money, in comparison to another unit we had stayed in at the same resort, this was inferior due to being so outdated.

Very comfortable accommodation, air conditioning worked well, beautiful ocean view. Everything worked perfectly until the dryer stopped on our last night. It was quite late when it happened, so I hope there was time to fix it before the next group came. We texted the manager, but didn’t hear back, so we can only assume it was taken care of.
We would definitely stay here again, the whole experience was wonderful.

Our second stay here…Beach across the street 🏖️, beautiful Sunsets 🌅, great food and shopping within walking distance. Check out The Cinnamon Roll Place…grab one and enjoy it while sitting on the beach. Thank You again for a wonderful stay, looking forward to our next visit!

I will lead with I have reached out to the owner about our concerns and he did indicate he will be visiting the property soon and will address, so this post could be irrelevant after their visit at the end of the year.
The condo is in a great location. Located across the street from beach with the rinse off station at the end of the parking area. Parking includes one reserved spot, and then we paid $5 a day for second spot. The visitor parking was never full in this little lot. The complex is clean, the staff in office was very friendly, and security posts up right outside of the unit each night.
Negatives-
Cleanliness- Upon entry the carpet on the stairs is in severe need of a cleaning or replacement (owner reply they are working on that, but having a hard time finding someone). My suggestion would be to at least try and clean the stairs in the meantime, it is a dirt path down the middle of carpet. We also noticed a partial fruit snack stuck in the carpet, like it was not vacuumed well or at all. The fan in master bath was completely full of dust, hair and dust bunnies in the rooms and bathrooms. Overall filthy conditions
Maintenance- Missing fire alarm in the master, followed by most of the light and fan slides to turn on were missing, so you were using the slide by grabbing the metal sticks for the fan and lights. All walls were in need of paint. Sinks dripped.
Disappointed in condition, but location made up for it. I hope the owner takes my information to heart.

This is an amazing complex, right across the street from an awesome beach and in walking distance to many restaurants and shops. This unit is one of the best because it faces the ocean and has fantastic views, including beautiful sunsets each evening. Ideally, it would get a bit of updating - interior paint, new carpet on the stairs, better bedding etc, but overall it's still a great place to stay on Maui. As for the owner’s lack of communication, it would have been nice if he; 1) Replied to my info request before I booked. 2) After booking, it was initially easier to communicate, and I spoke to him about possibly staying longer - he said that might be possible. When I reached back out to him over several days (via email and text to his personal cell) trying to finalize an extension, he did not reply. After frustratingly waiting several days, we gave up and made other arrangements. 3) A few days before our arrival, I again reached out twice asking about checking in a couple hours early due to our morning flight and the fact that the unit had been vacant for a couple days, meaning last minute cleaning was not a factor. Again, I did not hear back from the owner. After initially confirming our booking and deposit, the owner did not seem very interested in keeping in touch, making sure everything went smoothly for us or in showing the aloha spirit we expected after booking his Maui property. According to several other reviews, this is a disappointing pattern.

This place is perfect for a small family. Swimming, surfing break up the street, walk to food and touristy stuff. We will be back for sure.

The location of this condo couldn’t be beat. Right across the street from the beach and within walking distance to food and shops. I do have a few complaints however. My biggest frustration was the air conditioning. When searching for a place to stay in Maui my family and I intentionally sought a place with central air. This place had it! However it was broken for the first 3 nights of our stay. We were not offered any sort of monetary compensation for this inconvenience but we were told we could pack up and move to another condo a few units down whose air conditioning was working for a few nights. My other complaint was that the towels smelled pretty musty. Almost as if they had sat in the washer too long before being dried. We went ahead and ran them through the washer and voila problem solved. In short we would stay here again but would probably take extra precaution to make sure that the air conditioner was working before hand. Because despite what they tell you, when it’s close to 90 degrees outside plus humidity the trade winds don’t help cool things off.

The property was in a beautiful location and everything that it was promised to be. We will definitely try to stay here first when we return.

This 2 bed 3 bath unit is older but functional and directly across the street from the beach. Convenient to shops and restaurants. Our commutation with the owner and on-island rep was terrible. We tried using the messaging in the app, emailing, texting... no response on 5 different occasions. I would consider staying at this resort again but not from this owner.

This unit is one of the front-facing units on the condo property. It’s the nicest place you can find in Kihei. One of a kind jewel with lots of room, right across the street from the beach. Gorgeous.
We figured out you have to turn the knob for AC downstairs to set it to run for six hours, but we were also fine, even though we didn’t figure that out until day three.
There was even Pickleball/tennis courts you can reserve and paddles you can check out from the front desk.
Other people staying in the condo’s back buildings were jealous that we were in one of the six front showcase units.

This property was just as represented. The kitchen served our needs and we were right across the street from Kam2 Beach. We even used the pool. The owner was very responsive which helped when we had an AC issue. Note to others, make sure to close up the unit when leaving for day. The split AC units have a hard time catching up when the unit is hot. The owner was having the units recharged. We would definitely stay again.

Overall our stay was great. Location was wonderful, condo met our needs nicely.
Could be outfitted a little better and had a very minor bug issue.
Would definitely stay there again.

The condo was clean. The view of the beach was blocked by a few trees but it was still a good view. It was very close to a couple restaurants and shops. Beach chairs and other beach items were supplied, so I didn't have to rent them.

This was a great trip. The location of the property couldn't be beat. It was a minute walk to the beach. There were many restaurants within walking distance. There were beach chairs, an umbrella, towels, etc for use. I was a little disappointed in the cleanliness of the carpet on the stairs. The bathrooms could also use an update. However, it was a great stay. We would definitely come back.

The townhouse was clean, had everything we needed and Is the best location in south Maui. The view is amazing and having the best beach right across the street was awesome. I would definitely stay here again and recommend this place to everyone. 5 stars!!!

This was a perfect base for our brief Kihei stay.
We wanted for clean, functional, and convenient, and that's exactly what we got. Bathrooms and kitchen are clean and updated, kitchen had adequate utensils and dishes, plenty of towels, beds were comfortable, AC worked well when we used it, internet was solid. No fancy flourishes, but that stuff is wasted on us.
The real draw here is the location, which is fantastic.
Kamaole II (literally 100 feet away) is great "home beach" -- big enough waves for some fun boogie boarding but still okay for an adventurous 7 year-old having his first real ocean experience. Saw two turtles in about 15 minutes snorkeling around the south-end rocks. Maybe not ideal for beginners since you have to fight the surf a bit, but the payoff in wildlife is there.
Plenty of restaurants/treat spots, groceries, breakfast/coffee places, and souvenir shops in the complexes just to the north -- no need to drive at all unless you want to mix things up.
As others noted it's not quiet at night with the ocean-facing windows open, but with them closed and AC on, it's quiet. We were passing out at like 9pm so can't say it was unreasonably raucous. And despite being so close to everything, the landscaping makes it feel private enough.
Overall, would highly recommend this place.

We arrived late and got all the check in information in advanced. Tyler came the next morning to check if we needed anything. The condo is super comfortable and equipped with everything you could need at your stay in Maui. Beach chairs, towels, umbrella, boogy boards, the kitchen was clean and well equipped. Everything was great and the location is amazing within walking distance to groceries and restaurants. We loved it and look forward to come back

My family and I enjoyed our stay at A107. Minus the small hiccup with the incorrect door code and locked safe, this unit was everything we needed for a week stay. The unit is two levels, half bath downstairs and upstairs two bedrooms and two bathrooms. The lenais upstairs and downstairs were very spacious and great views of the ocean and Kam II beach.
The kitchen was well stocked with pans, dishes and utensils. Not many items left behind from previous guests but just enough spices and basics to help get us through. Plenty of towels and the laundry washer and dryer in the unit helped keep up with our large family.
The property has a nice and deep (8ft) pool and grilling area. They have 2 grills that are kept very clean. There is also a fridge, sink and large covered tables for outdoor dining by the pool.
There was light traffic and weekend noises by the park, but didnt hinder our sleep. The units had 5 tommy bahama chairs and one umbrella that was used with a broken support but held up, small stroller, pack n play, sand toys, and soft sided cooler.
The AC unit was a little tricky. You had to spin the dial and then all three units had separate remotes to program the units. The timer lasted somewhere between 4-6 hrs but kept the units comfortable if doors were kept shut. We would definitely stay here again.

I liked the condo and was grateful that the floor was tile and easy to sweep up the sand we tracked in. Due to Covid restrictions we cooked the majority of our meals. I felt the kitchen supplies were lacking. There were 9 of us altogether at 3 different condos. When they came over I had to borrow 9 X 13 pans, cookie sheets etc. Also there were only a few kitchen trash bags, few dish washer soaps, 1 roll of paper towels, no aluminum foil, 3 coffee filters, 4 things of laundry detergent. I wish we were told to bring those things and that they weren't provided. I have stayed at Kathy McCartney's condo in the same complex. All were provided. The other two condo's my family rented had those supplies. Also wish there was more pool noodles not just one. Also boogie boards. The downstairs and spare bedroom air conditioners worked well. The master bedroom sometimes worked and sometimes didn't. I have to say though every day I looked out the windows and thanked God we were there. It is a lovely spot and a few changes would make the difference!

We had a lovely time at this condo! The location is hard to beat, and the view is incredible!! The owner was prompt in responding, and very helpful. The upstairs does get VERY hot in the afternoon, and the air conditioner was a little tricky to figure out, but a small price for everything else this condo has to offer.

The condo was very comfortable, in a great location and met all our needs. Especially, having the beach directly across the street was so convenient and enabled us to enjoy our vacation even more. Great beach chairs! Loved every minute of our stay. If we have a chance to visit Maui in the future I would love to rent this condo again!

This condo is perfectly located right across from the #2 beach -- a lovely beach for swimming and boogie boarding. Great views of the ocean and the sunsets (sometimes even whales!) right from both upper and lower lanais Being close to the road, there was a bit of traffic noise (the only negative), but this quieted down by nighttime, so that you could only hear the ocean waves with the patio doors open. Plenty of space for us 3 adults and 2 small children. The condo property itself was very well maintained with a nice pool area (always some shade) and decent BBQ area too. Walking distance to restaurants, coffee, ice cream, shopping, and a kids' playground (in the park by Foodland). The lower lanai was almost always shaded whereas the upper lanai usually had some sun. It was nice to have the two separate bathrooms upstairs, though the master ensuite was a bit small, and we missed not having a bathtub for the kids. The WiFi was a bit slow at times, but the air conditioning worked well the few times we used it. The Blu-ray player and TV worked well also. Overall, a very comfortable and nicely equipped condo and we would definitely consider staying here again on our next trip to Maui!

This 2 bedroom condo was perfectly located in Kihei. Right across the street from the beach with an ocean view from the 2nd floor lanai. The condo came with everything we needed to be comfortable for our stay. With 2 adults and 2 teenagers it was great to have a place where we could all have our space at the end of the day. Everyone we met around the pool and common areas were very friendly. We look forward to coming again!!

Perfect place for a get away in the heart of Kihei. 2 balconies with great ocean view, steps away from the beach and walking distince to the restaurants. Place was beautifully furnished with all the necessary kitchen necessities and very comfortable.
Would recommend this to a couple or a family as there's enough room for everyone. Looking forward to staying here again.
