I had a wonderful stay here! The condo was very clean, comfortable and updated. Nicer than many places I've stayed for the price so I was thrilled that it was as nice as it was! The bed was very comfortable. The owners communicated promptly and very thoughtfully and generously stocked the place with everything you'd need from soap and shampoo to beach supplies. They didn't miss a thing! I loved having my coffee on the balcony. My daughter lives within a mile of the condo and her in laws stay at this complex whenever they visit so I already knew the location was great. My daughter commented that this apartment was nicer than any her in laws had stayed at. It's near lots of great bars and restaurants but they're not in walking distance. I always rent a car. I think Kihei is the place to stay because it's in the center of everything you'll want to see and do and you are mingling with the locals instead of staying at a resort that looks like every other resort with palm trees. It's on the water so the views of sunrise and sunset are gorgeous. I drove to some of the most beautiful beaches on the island that were 15-20 minutes away. This is a perfect place to stay and the price is reasonable for what you're getting. When I read reviews that say it's not the beaches of Wailea, it's true but it's absolutely lovely for the price I wanted to pay. If you stay on the water in Wailea you are looking at $700 + a night. I was thrilled with this place and would definitely stay again!

The condo it awesome from an updates/ provided items standpoint. Very clean and exactly as advertised. The only thing to be aware of is you are pretty far from the bars/restaurants/resorts. If we did it again we would probably have traded oceanfront for closer to Wailea.

This condo is clean and equipped with everything you might need. It is close to many restaurants. Even though we didn’t use them, the amenities were very nice. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

The Cindi was perfect for our needs . The location was great making it easy to go to any part of the island for different activities . We would stay again if we come this way

Very clean with modern appliances and WiFi. Great location if you rent a car with easy access to most parts of the island. Kihei has grocery stores, plenty of shopping, and great food. Easy access to the beach and pool area. We enjoyed our stay!

I have to say this wasn't quite what we were expecting. The photos are deceiving. The tower this unit is in is set back quite a ways from the ocean. There are multiple balconies in view, along with the pool and courtyard inbetween the other buildings, which were cropped out of the photos. There is no washer and dryer as listed. There is a community coin operated laundry. The couch is in desperate need of being replaced. The springs are shot. When you sit down you fall in, then have to climb out. I sat on a pillow all week to be able get up from the couch. That is the only seating other than 8 straight back dining chairs/barstools. A big annoyance is the return air vent is in the living room and it roars, making it hard to hear the TV over it. The bedroom closet is filled with stuff that should be in the storage closet. Good luck hanging a dress in there. The upgraded kitchen and the welcome basket were really nice, and the floors are beautiful. The location of the complex is convenient. I didn't communicate with the property manager, but I had to put a rating.

My husband and I went for our honeymoon and the condo was just at the perfect location. The mountains on your left and the ocean view on your straight on the left from the porch. 10/10 would come back to this exact place again too!

The property and condo amenities are as described and we had a great view of the ocean and pool area. The bed is comfy, tv viewing options are great (if you have time to watch tv/movies, etc. There are good places to eat within walking distance, and grocery stores too if you want to cook.

This was an amazing property with every amenity needed. It really is all about location, and this was perfect. Centrally located in Kihei, but not directly in town so it was quiet and peaceful for morning breakfast on the lanai, and evening sunsets on a beach on the property that was basically deserted. No busy streets to cross, only a beautifully maintained grassy area. The highlight of the property is the 5th-floor "welcome committee" named Barry. He was so helpful! Wonderful to talk to and so many helpful suggestions. He is a retired resident who likes to keep the 5th floor spotless. He was always out there with a broom! This truly was the best property we've ever stayed in while on Maui, and I've visited about 10 times.

My partner and I really enjoyed staying here. It had all the amenities you would need for any length of stay and the property was very clean and well presented. The balcony has a lovely view which you can access from both the bedroom and living room which was nice. It was only a very short walk to a quiet beach, and the surrounding gardens/pool created a very relaxing atmosphere. The owners were very easy to communicate with, and gave us some great help and advice leading up to our stay. There was a lovely welcome basket with coffee, chocolates and biscuits which I thought was a lovely touch. I would definitely stay again and recommend the accommodation to others.

We loved the property. It is very well looked after. The kitchen has everything you could want for cooking a meal. The view was beautiful from the large balcony. The pool was so great to spend time at as while we were there the winds were very strong so some days it we weren’t able to enjoy the beach. As well there was everything we needed to enjoy the beach or the pool with chairs, beach towels, snorkel gear. We left behind a couple of foam floaties we bought and hope others can enjoy them. The bed is well used, or so it felt. The mattress seemed quite worn so we had a hard time sleeping, but no bed ever feels the same as your bed at home, so it could have been just that. The only con was that there is what appears to be a window shade as the head board/wall hanging and it was very, very dusting. I was worried about dust falling on us during the night. That was the only thing that we weren’t thrilled about, but it didn’t affect our holiday. I would also like to mention that the owner is very caring. We were there during the Maui fires and she called us to make sure we were safe. She wasn’t worried about her condo, but was worried about us. I would highly recommend staying here once Maui is welcoming tourists again. We really did leave our hearts in Maui. Maui Strong.

Very impressed with this condo! Great spot for a getaway and enjoy the island! Had no issues with anything in the unit and super easy and convenient check-in process! Food around this location was very good. Also has a variety of grocery stores nearby if you prefer to cook meals yourself! A lot of extras provided such as beach towels, snorkeling gear, laundry essentials, etc! Response from owner was very prompt as well! Would recommend staying here!

The property was very clean and exactly as described online. But perhaps the best part of this condo is its location. Situated right on the beach, you can step outside and be on the sand in seconds. And if you're looking for some adventure, there are plenty of activities to choose from in the surrounding area. Overall, I would highly recommend this condo to anyone looking for a relaxing vacation in Maui. With its stunning views, amenities, and unbeatable location, it's truly a dream come true.

This condo is in a great location, since Kihei is situated between Wailea and Lahaina. The building was easy to find on the main road. Although the building appeared dated exteriorly, the elevators ran perfectly, and the unit itself is updated with a beautiful ocean view. We felt comfortable and right at home here. Everyone was very friendly and we felt safe here too. The kitchen is beautifully renovated, linens/ towels were clean, and the place is supplied with pretty much everything you need. Thanks for a great stay in Kihei!

This condo was lovely. The kitchen is very well-stocked, with everything you need should you choose to cook. In addition to plenty of pots, pans, bakeware, there was also a blender (a little touchy) and there were spices, cooking oils, coffee filters. The welcome basket (coffee, chips, cookies, etc.) was a nice touch. My only complaint was the lack of outlets in the kitchen, but fortunately my husband travels with an extension cord (I’m not kidding!), so we were able to get around that. The condo was very clean, and Denise and the maid service were both very responsive (I reached out to get the pool code, and I requested some bedding). The sunsets were beautiful. The beach is nice for walking, but we didn’t see anyone swimming. We choose to go to other beach areas, and it was nice to have beach chairs. There was a small umbrella, but it was too windy to use it. Yes, you will receive a lengthy email with ALL the checkin/check-out directions, and while it might seem like a lot, the information is helpful and none of it is unrealistic. Just treat the condo as if you owned it!

This unit was nice inside and conveniently located near the elevator, laundry and garbage. The views were hard to beat as the lanai had both great views of the ocean for watching sunsets and also gazing at the mountains. Beach is nice for walks and sunsets but water is murky so not the best for swimming. Air conditioning was the best we have had in many trips to the islands. Bed was comfortable to us. Kitchen was nicely equipped and the automatic ice maker was a plus Lots of beach equipment too. Location is a little distance from the main retail section of Kihei which makes it quieter but also means a vehicle would be a bonus if you don't want to take the bus(bus stops are located close to building though). Owners were great. Our flights were cancelled and while their units were booked, Denise helped us search for other accommodation and continued to check on us to make sure we made it safely home. Thank you so much Denise!! Would recommend this property!!

We enjoyed our stay at this Maui condo very much. The owners were very easy to work with and the condo was just as described. The basket of goodies was a nice touch. It is obvious these owners care very much about their condo, and their guests as well!

Comfy bed, nice kitchen with everything you need except sharp scissors. Good shower, ample closet space. Great sunsets. Even sunrise from lanai. Kihei offered good dining and farther south 15 min, great beaches to snorkel.

The location of this property worked perfectly for our needs on a 3 night stay. We were not looking for a resort destination with all of the on-site amenities; we were looking for a "home base" for a few days that was convenient for everything we wanted to go out and do. The owners have A LOT of rules- for the most part they are all reasonable and generally common sense items, but there are A LOT of them (even down to where in the unit you can use an ink pen). Guests are expected to wash and put away all dishes (not just run the dishwasher as they are leaving)- keep this in mind if you know you have an early flight on your departure, no one wants to wake up extra early just to finish all of the dishes before they leave. (This policy also makes me question how clean the dishes really are- did the previous guest just rinse out their cereal bowl and toss it back in the cabinet as they were rushing to get out the morning of checkout vs. actually cleaning it.) Overall I would stay here again and recommend to other responsible adults (probably wouldn't recommend to families with children based on the long list of rules).

We had a wonderful stay in the beautiful unit 505. It was well equipped with all the necessities, including beach equipment. We enjoyed all of the amenities of the complex, such as the grills, pool and hot tub. Sunrises and sunsets were amazing and could be viewed from the lanai or the adjacent beach. Unit owners, Denise and Mike, were very responsive and easy to deal with. They helped make our stay very enjoyable. We would certainly rent this unit again and recommend it to others.

Nice property, but after reading the huge amount of dos and don'ts I was afraid to touch anything. The owners seemed very strict! The beach gear was very used. Snorkels looked dirty like they weren't cleaned and beach chairs were undesirable. The pool was nice and views from patio were beautiful. We had a nice stay overall I would give this location a 4 out of 5.


Cari K.

This was our first stop on our two week honeymoon and it was just perfect. The view, location, and even the basket of goodies on the kitchen counter were great. We would definitely come back again.


Jerry M.
October 2022
The stay definitely started off rough unfortunately because they did not clean the property by the time we got there (even though we checked in 3 hours later than expected). However once I contacted the property owner they immediately got the room cleaned and apologized for the inconvenience. Unfortunately this hurt a lot of the initial wow factor but we still thoroughly enjoyed our time there and the snacks and goodies provided by the host were a very kind gesture. I would still recommend to others but I hope that issue doesn't occur again.

This condo is newly remodeled and very nice & clean. It was wonderful to have AC in order to sleep better at night! Kitchen is well stocked, and closet has ice chest and beach chairs & beach towels to use. There are a lot of instructions, but please read through it all to keep the owners unit clean, pest free, and nice/comfortable for them and guests! The lanai is wonderful for morning coffee and evening drinks. The pool and grounds are clean and the beaches south of Kihea are gorgeous!

We stayed at this property while visiting Maui. We chose the property because of its location in Kihei which is a great location to bounce around the island. The instructions email is a bit intense laying out rules for the property, but I understand why, it’s quite beautiful. Wood floors and stunning views makes this spot a nice place to rest your head. My only suggestion would be bigger beach towels and labeling the many switches in the condo, besides that, we absolutely 100 percent would use this property again!

Thank you for sharing your island-themed condo which included nice welcome gifts. We enjoyed the beautiful view and even saw turtles peeking up in the evening right off shore. Bedding was comfy and most of our time was spent sitting out on the outside patio. The grounds were pristine. Centrally located to everything we did on Maui!

We stayed here for our honeymoon (we were on Kaanapali side the first part and stay the last 4 days here) It was the perfect place to end our honeymoon. Very quiet and more low-key compared to Kaanapali side. The condo was beautiful! Everything very nice and clean and updated. The balcony was great and the views were beautiful. The pool was super nice to have available. We were also surprised by the beach that you can walk to through the grass area. It was never crowded (maybe 2-3 other groups/families there) and it stretched a long ways. It was nice being able to walk to a nice beach that wasn't crowded or a big tourist spot. Super relaxing which was what we wanted for our last days in Maui. The Condo had everything we needed plus extras (awesome and comfy beach chairs, cooler, umbrella, various beach supplies etc.). The only part about where this is located is you will have to drive everywhere for food, shops, or if you want to go to any of the bigger beaches. But we didn't mind as we had a rental and it was a short 5 min to drive anywhere in Kihei and about 10 min to Wailea (which is gorgeous). My husband is a golfer and he played the Wailea Emerald Course. I rode along... it was absolutely stunning! Highly recommend! We had lots of great food at the restaurants around (Kihei Cafe for breakfast, Freds, Moose McGillycuddys, 808 sandwich shop, Gilligans, Mulligans, Lava Rock bar and grill). Thank you for making the last part of our honeymoon a relaxing and awesome experience! Mahalo!

Overall a very good stay. Great location and view on the ocean. The place is outdated and the mattress needs be replaced. Very moldy feeling and humid in the apartment. Hosts offer a nice welcome basket and beach essentials.

For the cost per night, it was unbeatable but definitely got what I paid for. The front door is quite heavy and loud and had hand prints all over. The front door mat was incredibly dirty. Inside, was fairly clean. However, the sofa pillows were thrown on the couch perhaps because the cleaners were in a hurry. It was stuffy and hot inside. The furniture looked used and abused - definitely far from the what the photos showed on the listing. The bed was not comfortable and had a huge dip on the right side. So I ended up sleeping on top of the sheets on blanket I brought with me. The red bath and toilet rugs were super damp. The owners were good communicators and the location wasn’t too bad. Overall, I’m sure this condo is a better fit for those of different standards than mine.

My wife and I have been coming to this complex, on and off, for the last 10 years. We started in the south building on the south side, then the north building on the north side, and 3 years in the north building facing the pool area. All of these units were ..., nice. The complex is amazing - we keep coming back. This year we spent 8 weeks in Denise and Mike's unit. We had booked it a year ago based on the pictures and we've been to this complex before. Based on the previous 5 units we stayed in, this is by far is one of the nicest, well appointed units. This unit is mid range on prices but at the high range on overall finishes and comfort. This unit books fast - so don't wait. Don & Marguerite from Vancouver Island

My wife and I had a very short stay here - we got in late at night and left early in the morning. Everything at the rental was as described. Check in was easy with the emailed instructions. The kitchen and living room looked recently updated and were very nice. The bathroom was a little outdated, but I have no complaints as this rental was very reasonably priced. There was a little basket with some snacks which was nice to have after a long day of traveling. Overall for the price point, I think this rental was great and I would stay here again.

This condo was the perfect location for my sister and I to enjoy the sights, sounds and smells of Maui. The size and location met all of our needs and the unit was fully stocked for cooking and recreating. The free parking spot was an added bonus. Our 2 weeks flew by and we can’t wait to visit again.

We had a nice time staying at this property. The grounds of the building are really nice; plenty of palm trees, well kept lawns, great pool and bbq areas. The nearby beach isn’t exactly the best but a short trip up our down the coast and you’ll find awesome beaches. Overall highly recommend this place! Clean, comfortable and good communication from the host.

Awesome unit! Spotless clean, smells good, great location, beachfront, quiet, special touches in the condo with welcome goodies, very comfortable bed, full kitchen to cook a big meal but we did not. Pictures does not do justice, so much better in person. Highly recommend this place! Sorry for the late review.

Loved staying at this spot! Kihei itself is in a good central spot if you plan on doing all the typical tourist activities. Its close in proximity to multiple beaches, grocery stores, and great restaurants, and I loved that they had a pool, grill, and parking all on site. The room itself is spacious enough for a family of 4 and has a nice lanai with great views for meals at the apartment. I especially loved that they had beach supplies to borrow that were in pretty good condition. The only downside was the beds. I saw some comments that they were super comfortable, while the bed in the room is, the pullout sofa was horribly uncomfortable. You would sink-in at such weird spots. But overall, would still 10/10 recommend!

This is a beautiful condo in a great location. It isn’t too busy in the area, and you are a short walk to a secluded beach, and a short drive to great restaurants. It was a wonderful place to call home during our time on Maui.

This was just what we were looking for. Decent price, quiet space, great kitchen, comfortable bed, and close to the water. Spent a few nice evenings relaxing after getting some good sun.

Very nice place to stay in Maui. Place was very neat and clean. It has everything you will likely need except groceries. Owners are also very helpful and responsive.

We had an excellent trip to Maui do in part to the condo. This place was perfectly located and had everything you could need. We highly recommend this location and condo for a couple coming for an anniversary or honeymoon.

Our stay here was amazing... Mike and Denise did a very good job providing everything a honeymooning couple could possibly need in Maui. They provided an extremely well-equipped kitchen, and made boogie boards/other beach equipment available in the unit! It is very clean, and the owners respond quickly to any messages sent to them.

This condo was just perfect for our 20th anniversary celebration. Our first time to Hawaii, it was centrally located on the island of Maui. The condo was very clean and provided everything that we needed. We felt right at home. The view of the ocean was a bit obstructed by the palm trees due to the fact that it's on the 5th floor, but other than that it was beautiful, just like in the pictures. We ate breakfast on the lanie almost every morning! The beach equipment was very nice to have!! Thank you Denise for sharing your oasis by the sea with so many! God Bless you!

The condo was well stocked and in a good location for all of Kihei. Close to the beach and had nice pools also. Having the central air was great for sleeping because of the evening humidity. Did not need it during the day. Comfortable bed.

This condo is amazing. It looks just like the photos and is in excellent condition. During our stay, there was some construction on our floor but Denise was very clear about this issue that she has no control over. She even gave us an option to cancel. We decided to stay and she offered us a partial discount. We felt that this was so generous and she really cared a lot about how we felt. The good news is that the construction was short lived and they don't do work on the weekends. We have traveled a lot over the last 10 years and we have never met an owner who cared so much about her renters. There was a list of do's and don'ts but all were very reasonable and this condo was stocked with great beach gear and the most comfortable bed! I would recommend this condo to any of my friends.

Where do I start with the issues? We arrived on Thursday for a week stay. On Saturday we were woken up at 730 am to sound of construction...,drilling and jackhammering right outside the door! This continued every day until 5pm. Great relaxing vacation...not! I sent an email to the owner Denise asking why we were not told about the construction as we would have not stayed here. She replied 8 hours later stating they were not aware of the construction but when we asked the leasing office about it they said all the owners were told in the emails, newsletter and there are postings all around. I got a “I am so sorry” for the issue..what?!! The condo is way smaller than the pictures show, shower curtain was ripped, tiles were literally missing from the patio floor, light bulbs missing in the bathroom, the bedroom is so small that you can barely get passed the bed and the dresser. Let’s talk about the contract...I have never seen a more negative contract than this one. First, there were a lot of NOs...no early check in, no late check out, etc. In the contract they actually tell you that you are NOT to put your luggage on the bed or the couch, you are NOT to misuse their beach equipment, which was basically 2 very old beach chairs (no umbrella). Denise actually states in the contract that it’s a courtesy to use their beach equipment...what?! Every single condo I looked at offered beach equipment. If you lose the key, you WILL be charged $35 dollars, if you are messy you WILL be charged extra despite already being charged $120 cleaning fee. This was a horrible experience. There are so many other great condo options that are less expensive and quite frankly a lot more personable. My recommendation is to NOT stay here.

The condo was well kept and is in a great location in Kihei. It is convenient to anywhere you want to go on the island. The pool area is nice and very relaxing . We didn’t get to access the putting green (they are doing construction), but the outdoor bbq’s and property has great amenities. There were supplies to take to the beach as well. The owners were AWESOME! Denise was very helpful and accomodating with answering questions. Other than it raining on us all but 2 days of our trip, the condo is well worth it!

Denise was so easy to communicate with. She did everything possible to make our stay at her condo enjoyable. The location was good; whether you were traveling north, east , south or west. The lanai was under construction while we were there, so she offered us a partial refund. Great customer service. Yes I would definitely stay at this VRBO again. Jean from Minnesota.

The unit was very nice, stocked with anything you might need. Comfy furniture and very comfy bed. Lovely balcony overlooking pool area and ocean. Only complaint was that there was renovation work going on and it was loud when we sat on the balcony. The work in the end will only improve the entire facility, so it really is a good thing. We brought the beach chairs down to the beach and found that one had a rip in it. Husband was in water, and I was not, so that worked out ok. We would highly recommend this unit. Owners were quick to answer, the complex, while under renovation, was lively and well tended to. Would go back again!

We really enjoyed our stay. Our granddaughter came with us and we found there was a baby pool, that was an excellent surprise! She had never been in a pool before and in 10 days of pool she was almost swimming! The only down side was the construction, we understand it is necessary so we made the best of it, lots of beach time during the work hours and some shopping trips! We hope to stay with you again! Thank you Mine and Denise! Adrian Wesley

My husband & I stayed at this condo for 5 days which is partial of our Maui honeymoon. The condo is just as nice as showed in photos: updated home, functional new kitchen, gorgeous view, nice lanai, comfortable bed. My top favorite parts are the kitchen, the bedroom and the lanai. My least favorite is the small bathroom and wish it could be a little more clean. We never needed to turn the AC on. We enjoyed the breeze from opened wall-to-wall window. The ground, pool and beach are all nice. Denise was very responsive. Highly recommend this home to any Maui visitors. Not to mention Kihei is a great place to stay: reasonable, lots of good local restaurants.

Had a wonderful stay in Kihei. No issues whatsoever with the condo. It was very well appointed, clean, and comfortable, and it even included some snorkel and beach gear. Would recommend.

Mike and Denise's condo had absolutely everything we needed. It was great to have beach gear to pack up in the car and take with us as we tried out many of Maui's beaches. We also found Kihei to have some great hidden gem restaurants and food trucks, thanks to Yelp. The condo was beautiful, quiet and centrally located. We would recommend to anyone!

My husband and I stayed in this condo during our week long vacation on Maui. We have used VRBO in the past for Hawaiian vacations and did not hesitate to go this route vs. a resort/hotel again. This condo is setup nicely and had many amenities (beach chairs, towels, coolers, boogie board, etc.) to use during your stay. However, the beach chairs and boogie board could use replacement. The grounds at the condominium are beautiful! We enjoyed the swimming pool and the shuffleboard lawn game. We did not use the beach for swimming, but did take the short 1 minute walk to the shore to enjoy the sunset a few times. Overall, a great condo for the value. Reasons why I did not rate a 5: Dirty beach towels and washcloths were left in a bamboo laundry basket from the last visitor, no coffee filters were provided in the unit (we bought some and left them there), a couple light bulbs needed replacement, dirty dishes were put away in the cupboards, and closet doors kept coming off track. We also had issues gaining access to the unit. We were given instructions to obtain the key from the office, which we did upon arrival. When checking in, the employee gave us the wrong keys, only to find this out after we got all our luggage and went up to the 5th floor...not a way to start the trip after a long flight. I would recommend having the key in the key lock box since there is already one on the door to the unit.

Very tastefully decorated throughout, and well-equipped. The owners were very responsive. My wife and I thought the property was a very good value.

We thoroughly enjoyed staying here! This was my first time staying in Kihei and VRBO. The condo had everything you could need/want! I recommend staying here! Mahalo Mike & Denise!

We have used VRBO for many years, and this is one of the nicest condos we've ever encountered. It is obvious that Mike and Denise took great care and pride in decorating and stocking this vacation rental. Everything you could possible want during your stay is in this condo. The grounds are also well cared for with an excellent view, pool, hot tub, and several bar-b-que grills. Denise was extremely gracious in allowing us to arrive a day ahead of schedule due to a death in our family. We greatly appreciate it and would DEFINATELY stay in this unit again.

Mike and Denise's condo unit has been completely updated and is probably the best unit in the complex! Everything needed was provided including all the kitchen gadgets and water sports items. The unit was exceptionally clean and well maintained. Additionally, it was a welcome relief to have air conditioning as our prior nights stay in Hana lacked any air and it was unusually hot and humid due to the proximity of hurricane Ignacio.

This is my first time to go to Maui, usually I go to Oahu and stay in hotel. This is my first time for Maui and condo rental experience. This condo beats my expectation. It has everything we need. 8 months ago, when we found this condo, I emailed the owner (Denise) couple of times to ask for parking, wifi questions, she pretty much replied immediately. The day I decided to lock this deal, I even talked to her in person. Overall, this place is easy access to the beach, shopping mall, restaurants. It has washer and dryer in the building and the assigned parking spot is very very close to the condo (The distance to walk is probably shorter than some big hotel from parking spot to the elevator). Very comfortable bed. We even cooked a full dinner meal. Will come back to Maui and will definitely book this condo again, thanks Denise.

This condo has everything and is gorgeous! The outside of the building is deceiving, but when you get to the condo located close to the lifts (bonus when carrying things)on the 5th floor you are pleasantly surprised. The owners have thought of everything from the fully equipped kitchen through to the chairs, cooler bags, snorkeling gear and boogie board. The rooms are all beautifully presented and the balcony has a great view. If you are looking for a home away from home - this is it
