Enjoyed our week in this condo. It is the largest 1bedroom we have stayed in at Ekahi. Loved the oversized lanai overlooking the ravine - nice private space to do morning yoga.
Condo was well stocked with almost everything we needed. A few plastic wine glasses could be added to the kitchen collection. We appreciated the books and games that were provided.
Owner and property manager were both accessible and helpful.
We have stayed at Ekahi many times. The pool pavilion and beach can’t be beat!

The Ekahi complex is lovely with beautiful gardens and nice pools. The easy access to the beach is a huge plus of staying here. This unit had a pleasant view of the gardens.
The unit was well equipped with almost everything you could need in the kitchen, but it does need a few repairs and some maintenance work done. As most reviews mention it is a little dark and the under cabinet lights don’t work.
Our biggest complaint was due to the dishwasher. The closing mechanism broke on day 6 of our 9 day stay so I phoned the property manager as instructed. She didn’t call me back so I called her again the next day and she said she would send a handyman over to have a look. That day the handyman came by, took a look at the dishwasher and then left.
We never heard anything back from either the property manager or the handyman so after another 2 days I messaged the owner here was her response:
"the plumber has ordered a part but that part won't arrive to the island for a week. is there enough dish soap for washing? If you run out please let me know and I will hire the cleaner to deliver more."
I think she should have sent the cleaner over to do the dishes. It still wasn’t repaired when we left on day 9.
I would stay at the Ekahi again, but I don’t think I would book this particular unit.

Visited with my wife and teenager. We all loved it. We followed up our stay with a couple days at an expensive resort and everyone liked the condo better. Tips: (1) check out the beach equipment sooner rather than later. There's lots of great stuff in there. (2) If you're looking for bigger waves, we liked Chang's Beach, a 10 min drive south (sadly, no showers there) or Big Beach - though the waves there can be TOO big. Loved our stay and would absolutely recommend!

We loved our stay at Ekahi 51B. Perfect location, well equipped, excellent host who accommodated our asks and followed up. We loved our trip and this space!

The condo is located near the turnoff to go into the property. It has a partial ocean view, and it's about a five-minute walk to the large pool and amenities near the beach. The property in general is kept up well, and the pool area is well maintained and has lots of lounge and table seating, and some umbrellas. We enjoyed sitting by the pool when not on the beach.
The condo itself was well equipped. The kitchen had just about anything you would need, and the owners had a nice supply of beach chairs, boogie boards, toys, etc. The condo has a nice deck and covered lanai area. As some reviewers have mentioned, the condo is a bit dark partially because of the dark walls and dark cabinets and granite in the kitchen. We thought the previous reviews were a bit inflated, because the some of the furniture and decor could use refurbishing. Although we probably would not choose this condo in the future, we did have a nice stay. This was at least our sixth stay in Wailea, and our first stay at Ekahi.

I usually stay at Ekolu Village but couldn't find a place there. Ended up here in Ekahi. The gardens are beautiful and mature, but the complex is more dense. That took getting used to. But the complex is nice, as is it's beachfront access and pool.
A couple things: when I first reserved the condo, the host came back with slightly higher price than VRBO said. When I asked why, I was told it was passing on the fee for the owner to transfer the money out from VRBO (or something like that). In many years of using VRBO I've never heard of such a thing. But it worked out to ~one hundred $. I was afraid to lose the place so close to my departure, so I sucked it up. If it had been a little further out, I would have walked.
The unit is nice, especially the lanai. It is a little on the darker side as some have commented, but that's just part of being a downstairs unit - but it's also nice that you don't have to walk up stairs just to get in the front door. There's an outdoor closet with chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, ice chest, snorkel gear, etc - so be sure to check it out before you buy or rent a bunch of gear.
Lastly, the unit is not at the end of Malukai Ln where the VRBO map shows it. It's actually right off Wailea Alanui Dr. At first I was super irritated as traffic noise drives me crazy. But, in the end, I never once heard a car go by. But I suggest you look at an Ekahi map to see where this unit (or any Ekahi unit) actually sits.
Very helpful/responsive host

Shannon went above and beyond to assist us when our reservation was canceled due to the wildfire. This property far and away exceeded our expectations! It was immaculate, spacious and quiet. The views from the lanai were a great treat to wake up to and the unit is only a 5 minute walk to the pavilion/beach area. Highly recommended! Thank you!

Large one bedroom with bunk beds off the living room, good for smaller children. Great kitchen with every possible cooking utensils, dishes and pots. Overall, the condo was upgraded several years ago but it is dark. Patio furniture could use some updating. Lots of beach toys, local property manager was very quick to respond to a concern. Good AC, 2 nice bathrooms and appliances are all great, nice to be able to do laundry. Mahalo!

What a beautiful property and perfect location!! Amazing kitchen thoughtfully equipped with every appliance and gadget that anyone could ask for. Sleeping arrangements for a family is exceptional. Pool and beach pavilion were perfect for dinner and sunset enjoyment. Would definitely come back again! :)

I’ve been looking forward to this trip for nearly a year! When I saw this property was available, I jumped on it. The property is well maintained, clean, has all the amenities, is walking distance to the beach, close to the Wailea beach path, has fantastic pools and “neighbors.” We couldn’t have been more happy with the property, the location and our entire stay. It was perfection…and I really hope we can return one day. We will definitely plan our any future trips around this property’s availability. I have already recommended it to friends!

Comfortable condo easily accessible to the Wailea beach path. Nice beach. The condo was well-appointed with all kitchen things one would want. Sunsets from the lanai are beautiful but more so from the property’s large green space or the beach.

We had an awesome time. Shannon left very clear instructions and the unit was clean. Wonderful updated kitchen! The property has everything you need for a day at the beach - towels, chairs, cooler, umbrella, boogie boards, etc. About a 5 minute walk downhill to the pool, outdoor BBQs, covered patio, lounge chairs and beach access! Beach is gorgeous and so is the pool / BBQ area. We did a few dinners down there to watch the sunset. We didn’t realize how well-maintained and new it would all be! Would definitely stay here again if we get the chance to come back!

They have outdone themselves with the upgrade of this condo. Everything is top notch. Only issue was tv in the bedroom and that could be battery or operator error. 10 out of 10 would recommend

We really enjoyed our stay here. The second bathroom along with the built in bunk beds allowed plenty of space and comfort for the family. The kitchen was immaculate and had everything we could have possibly needed. The lanai was quiet and the landscape around it was well kept. The view of the ocean and the sounds of birds singing made for a relaxing start to each day. The unit was about an 8 minute walk to the main pool and beach, which was shorter than I thought when looking at the map of the complex. Would definitively stay here again.

We have stayed in several condos on the Ekahi property and this was one of our favorites. It literally had everything we needed and more.
It was quite and clean and our son loved the private bunk area.
The walk to the beach was slightly further then other condos but still not bad. But it more then made up for it by the proximity to the Andaz and mall which we walked to daily.
Highly recommend this condo and can’t wait to stay there again.

We enjoyed this beautiful property while staying in Maui. The townhouse was updated and comfortable. The patio was heaven for outdoor meals. The property was beautifully manicured and the pool area was great for our three college age girls. Thank you for sharing your property for a memorable family vacation.

Beautiful kitchen, very large patio, kitchen is generously stocked with plenty of dishes, silverware and glass ware. Property includes all beach equipment you would ever need. We have stayed at Ekahi Village over a dozen times and, based on our experience, this condo/property is the best of all of them.

This condo is fabulous! So spacious and so well equipped. The lanai is beautiful with lots of space to relax. It’s notable that the unit is at the top of the property so a small walk to the pool and the beach. But you’re also close to the main road and can easily walk to the Shops at Wailea which is a great perk! The kitchen is well stocked along with lots of extra linens and tons of beach gear. Can’t wait to come back again!

The property was exactly as advertised. Wonderful use of space. The kitchen area was very large with an enormous island and much counter space. Both of the bathrooms were large and had all the necessary items we needed. The lanai was so big, it could have been another room! There are two sliders leading out to the outside with awesome views of the ocean and beautiful lawns.
Would stay here again!

Absolutely a beautiful condominium just like the picture showed. The complex is beautiful, will maintain a beautiful swimming pools. The beach was amazing with beautiful snorkeling and lots of huge sea turtles to swim with. I would recommend this property highly. It was like being home away from home.

The condo was lovely and in a great location. Ocean views with a short walk to the beach or one of the great pools. We will stay here again! The landscaping is immaculate and so beautiful.

We had just come from our adventures in Oahu - hiking all the trails there - and we were looking forward to our relaxing stay in Maui. The place was wonderful. Lots of space on the lanai for hanging out and watching the sunset. The location is perfect. We loved utilizing the pools and pickleball court. Overall an amazing stay!

Could not have asked for a better location; near all the Wailea resorts but, just one beach away from the crowds. Condo itself was spacious and clean.

Clean, spacious, and well-stocked unit that would easily sleep two adults and two children. There was everything that we needed to enjoy Maui to the fullest. If you were planning to stay in Wailea, you cannot go wrong with this rental.
