The condo is clean and has a great view of the ocean. Condo has a comfortable bed and a nice pull out couch bed. Lots of beach items available for use during your stay- ice chest, beach chairs, snorkeling items and sand toys. Bathroom has a blow dryer. Kitchen is fully stocked and has a coffee pot (not pods) The locations of the Condo is perfect! Walking distance from restaurants and bars and beach access is across the street. Cannot wait to come back

This condo was well stocked, appeared as described, and served us well during our honeymoon in Maui. We especially loved being able to walk across the street to the beach and use the provided beach chairs to relax. Air does not circulate well to the back bedroom but there was a floor fan and ceiling fan so we were good to go! Proximity to other areas of the island was also a plus - it seems like this area is a good spot to be central to most sights and sounds. Bonus points for the cool guest book!

After landing in Maui , tried to get the code for my rental, was told I had no reservations!! Management wouldn’t call me , only would text, panicking set in. Eventually called VRBO and they resolved the problem, I guess we were relocated to a different building, or was given wrong information, but I had printed out my reservation and had my confirmation on my phone as well, still unsure of what really happened, but ended up with a room at the same property, it was clean, quiet, and a beautiful view. After the panic, it worked out in the end.

We had stayed at the Kihei Akahi before but not in building D on the 5th floor and the view from
D503 is one you dream about. Every morning when you wake up and see that view you know it is going to be a good day. As well as the view the unit was clean and well stocked with everything you need to make your stay a memorable one.

Great location. Friendly atmosphere. It did rain for a day and a half straight during part of my stay and no flooding. The washing machine flood sensor went off and the local contact listed was quick to respond. Great experience overall!

Location of this property was perfect. Great access to beaches and restaurants. Beautiful sunset views from balcony. Unfortunately the air conditioner could not keep condo cool due to 80 degree temps and multiple days of no trade winds. Condo was stocked with everything we needed.

We absolutely loved our stay at Kihei for our honeymoon. Stephen was very quick at responding to emails and made the check in process very straight forward for us. Our flight arrived early and we could drop our bags off with Ronda the cleaner so that we could go for a walk until the condo was ready.
The condo is very conveniently located. It’s a 2 minute walk to Kam 2 beach as well as decent local restaurants and amenities. We hired a car during our stay which we’d highly reccomend. Being so central meant that we could get pretty much everywhere within an hour so we managed to cover the whole island in about 5 days.
We’ve had an unforgettable experience here and would highly recommend staying here!

We really enjoyed our stay and there was nothing we didn't like about the property. Very close to beach and short bike ride or drive to Wailea my ultfavorite place! Shaved ice was within walking distance so we made it a daily activity! The unit was safe, easy to access, had a great pool and easy parking. We'd definitely stay again.

Had another great stay at Stephen’s condo. Kihei Akahi is centrally located amongst restaurants and shopping with a beautiful beach (Kam II) at its doorstep. This lovely condo has all the comforts of home and the amazing ocean view of the 5 star resorts just down the road. We’ve already booked our next stay. Can’t wait to return

Everything you will need is in the condo you can go out back early morning and see sunrise condo location is best in Kihei but the best part is sunset from your balcony MAGNIFICENT

Condo was wonderful. Clean and had everything we needed. It was very nice to be able to grab the beach chairs and mini cooler and walk the 3-5 minute walk down to the beautiful beach from the condo. It was a great central location for exploring Maui. We drove all the way around the island and explored trails and the National Park. The condo is close to lots of wonderful restaurants and the view from the porch is wonderful. We enjoyed drinking our coffee there in the mornings and watching the sunset in the evenings. We had a great experience and would recommend it again.

Great location for the beach and exploring the island, we can highly recommend this apartment to anyone.
It was clean with everything that you need, a home from home. The view from the balcony was lovely and you could watch the sunset in the evening.
The pool areas were great and well looked after. It was peaceful but had plenty of restaurants and shops nearby.
Contact with the owner was timely and informative.
It's a great place to stay if you're planning a trip to Maui.

Really liked the property. Well designed. Parking near each building and hose up front to wash the sand off your gear. Apartment is clean and plenty of fans to keep the air flowing. Floor was clean. Ocean view from lanai is awesome. Only thing was that AC drip tray broke on our last day and we had to help clean up the mess but the owner said he’s going to fix it.

The condo was a fantastic home base for exploration around Maui. I'm glad we stayed in this area instead of Lahaina, traffic over there looked horrible.
Check in was easy enough and the host was very responsive to our questions. The AC works great in the living and kitchen, but doesn't really reach into the bedroom. The windows help but it gets a little stuffy back there. The Kitchen was very well stocked with utensils, cookware, and even spices so we could cook a meal or two.

My wife and I just spent 5 days here and couldn't have been happier with the accommodations! The condo itself is beautiful and in a perfect location, with a postcard view from the balcony, the beach right across the road and several restaurants and shops within easy walking distance. As an added bonus, the condo comes stocked with beach chairs, snorkeling gear, boogie boards and beach towels. Next time we come to Maui, we definitely hope to stay here again!

We loved staying here. The cal king bed was a pleasant surprise. The pull out couch wasn’t all that great but not terrible. We loved how close of a walk to the beach we were!! Building D is quiet and away from the road which was a plus.

Condo was very nice, however the most amount of overkill rules I've seen in the condo itself (as well as the condo grounds), making it slightly less welcoming. Overall a rather nice place to be though.

We love staying at this condo. Stephen, the owner is hospitable, friendly, and has a beautiful condo. Our favorite part of staying here is watching the sunset every night. It’s an easy walk to the ocean, and the location is close to restaurants. We’re excited to make staying at Stephen’s condo a yearly tradition.

I highly recommended staying here. It’s in an amazing location - directly across the street from the beach and close to other amenities. The unit was a perfect size for me and my two kids. It was in good condition and felt like home. Thank you very much for allowing us to stay in your wonderful place in paradise!

We absolutely loved our stay at the property. It had everything we needed for a relaxing stay - all the kitchen and beach amenities. Perfect location for exploring the island or just walking to the beach and nearby restaurants. The property grounds are beautiful and peaceful, with trees and birds everywhere. And the view was absolutely breathtaking!! Stephen was an amazing host - very flexible and worked with us so we could make this trip happen. We cannot wait to return, and this property will be our first choice for our next visit to Maui. Mahalo Stephen!

There was a half of roll tp already on the holder and we had one extra roll. The last day of our stay we ran out of tp. Maybe 2 extra rolls for 4 days of stay would have been better.

This property is perfect for any couple looking to stay in Kihei. The property was clean and comfortable and only a five minute to walk to the beach. I was especially impressed by the amount of 'extras' the condo had including basic toiletries and beach equipment. I would without hesitation recommend this property and can't thank Stephen enough for hosting us!

Beautiful condo with great view. Everything was clean and well maintained and the property was as described. Property had an amazing breeze flowing through even in mid August, we never even turned the AC on our whole stay. The only drawback to the property was I never could figure out the water temperature for the shower, not sure if it was me or the shower but it was either super hot or cold. Overall this place was great though and we would definitely recommend. Ps, check the closet for beach and snorkel gear before you get anything…. They had everything we needed there

We had an amazing stay here! The condo was very well maintained and so many things were supplied for us to use if we wanted like beach chairs and snorkel equipment. We were really impressed with the pride the owners have in the place and would highly recommend staying here! Thank you for providing such a welcome and homey place for us to stay on our trip!

I only stayed 4 nights at this property in Maui, and have to say that I had a great time, so did my family. The house was very well- located, near a great beach and lots of small places to eat. The property was very well-equipped with kitchen supplies, towels, and even snorkeling gear (I brought mine, since sharing such a personal item was not something I intended to do anyway). I wanted to thank the Stephen, the owner of this unit for maintaining open communication and being very clear in his explanations, expectations and details. Mahalo!! (Thank you in Hawaiian).

Easy check in, clean, near the beach. There are a few restaurants and bars near by but you might need to drive for more variety and night life.

The owner was super easy to communicate with and the place was nice and clean. Easy check in and the property was beautiful. The only thing that could be better would be the A/C, it was pretty hot during our visit and the air conditioning struggled to keep the back of the unit cool. Other than that, would definitely recommend! Thanks Steve!

First time visiting Maui as well as using Vrbo and had an outstanding experience. We had a Lahaina hotel reservation cancelled on us and were super lucky to have found this place, renting a condo in Kihei is definitely the way to go. This place is sparkling clean, with gorgeous views and high quality decor and stocked with everything you would need for a long vacation in Maui, from kitchenware to beach gear to entertainment. The housekeeper Ronda left detailed communication instructions if we ever needed anything (we didn’t, but felt at peace knowing exactly what to do if something went wrong). Super convenient location walking distance from the beach, convenience store, snorkel rentals (but check the closet first!), restaurants, and bars. The property itself is beautiful and secure, easy check in process and the parking spot is located where it doesn’t get too hot. The keyless entry is amazing, one less thing to worry about.
A few tips to make the stay more comfortable:
We used the in unit dryer and found the lint filter was very very thick, seemed like it hadn’t been cleaned in a while but that was an easy fix.
On warmer nights we brought the living room fan into the bedroom so 2 fans were running; it didn’t feel too stuffy.
Also definitely buy or bring sunscreen - there was some that other guests had left in the bathroom cabinet and we also left some but you’ll need a lot.
Also worth bringing shampoo and conditioner and maybe body wash - a 2 in 1 travel size and a bar of soap is provided (hotel style) but if you go swimming in the ocean you’ll likely want something more nourishing for your hair if it’s higher maintenance.
Overall had a very pleasant stay, well exceeded expectations and would love to come back to Maui and stay here again. Thank you!

This property is amazing. I have absolutely nothing to complain about! Stephen is very easy to get in contact with and is very nice. They give you everything you could possibly need such as a blow dryer, beach chairs, snorkeling gear, beach towels, and so much more. The best part is the beach across from the condo is amazing. We went out snorkeling everyday and nearly saw a turtle everyday! You don’t need to drive somewhere far to see turtles, they’re right down the street! The food in walking distance is incredible, great options and not overly expensive! The set up in the condo is absolutely beautiful, I couldn’t have asked for something better! You get a nice veiw of the beach from the balcony! Once you arrive, you have to go talk to the office and let them know you’re here, which was a very easy process! The Wifi works great and everyone staying here is incredibly nice! I highly recommend, without a doubt you will love it here!

This was a very special visit to the Kihei Akahi, we have been coming here since 1986. We invited our daughter and her family and our son to spend Christmas and New Year's. The unit was in A1 shape, the furniture, the decoration the cleanliness the style and quality.
We must say this would be one of the top units we have ever stayed at in the Kihei Akahi for the past 26 years.
I am keeping all the details because we certainly want to come to the same unit again and again.
Highly recommended.

Dear Stephen and Mary Lou,
We enjoyed it immensely!
We were very appreciative of many things: The unit was very clean, the kitchen was exceptionally well stocked, the location was perfect (close to beach as well as some interesting eating places), the bed was good, a quiet atmosphere (except for birds singing in the morning) and the sunsets were beautiful! We hope that, if the occasion arises, you would consider renting it to us again.
Thanks again, Ken and Lenore Kirk
