The condo was nice and clean. Check in was a bit frustrating as we couldn’t get in until 30 minutes after check in time due to the cleaning team didn’t have the room ready. There was an issue with the AC in one room however the owner resolved the problem quickly. We would stay at this location again

Nice place to stay, and great location! It was an aging facility (musty smell in hall bathroom from some wet floor spots and the deck needs some attention). The space was nice and appliances worked well. It did have AC, however was not quite as efficient as we had hoped (but it did work!). It was nice to have the washer/dryer and many beach items to borrow.
We were within walking distance to great shops, restaurants and the beach. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub. Views were amazing!

I recommend you consider rebuilding the deck. You have some rotten wood and it feels a bit unsafe. Otherwise, all good

Perfect spot in Kihei for beaches, restaurants and launching point to visit other parts of the island. The condo was clean with ample space for a family of 5. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub, as well as the bbq and outdoor eating area. We'd come back here in a minute!

Our place was centrally located. We had a great view of the ocean from our room. We saw several whales right from our deck out of the living room. Everything, including the air conditioning, worked great. I would come back in a minute.

My sister and I thoroughly enjoyed our visit. Great location. We just walked across the road every evening to catch the sunset. Lots of good restaurants within walking distance. Just a bit up the road is a park that has a walkway along the ocean. Loved it.
I absolutely recommend this property.

The condo is located in the heart of Kihei and an easy walk to many restaurants and shops. The two bedroom two bathroom layout works great with friends or family. Sit and enjoy a beautiful view of the ocean from the balcony or enjoy the pool and amenities on property.

We didn't know much about Maui when we first booked this VRBO. We mostly were looking for something on the more affordable side near a beach that could fit a family of 5 comfortably over Christmas break. We planned to have a rental car so we could explore Maui by day and just needed a place to crash at night. Our stay at the Shores of Maui ended up being my favorite stay during our 2 week/3 island family vacation. The owner, Sam, was great with communication beforehand. We loved that the unit had plenty of beach towels, chairs, boogey boards, etc. It was easy to walk to the grocery store, tons of restaurants, and food trucks for all of our meals. Had a great view of the pool/hot tub and surfing beach from the balcony. We found lots of great beaches nearby but still decided to day trip around the island to explore. In the end, I really loved the Kihei vibe more than the other fancier areas like Wailea or Kaanapali. It was a great mix of laid back tourists and locals. Casual dining options, cute shops, surf schools, all line the street as you walk around. Gorgeous beaches and parks to stroll through and watch the sunset. We felt fortunate to be in the center of it all. The pool and hot tub were the perfect way to end our days. Wish we had a few more days! Couldn't ask for a better place to be!

This property was wonderful and had everything we needed for our vacation. It was so well stocked and had so many "extras" that we weren't expecting. Everything from all the beach gear (umbrella, chairs, boogie boards, beach towels, snorkels, coolers, etc) to kitchen supplies (plenty of spices, keurig, tupperware, lots of cups and dishes, filtered water) to other supplies (laundry soap, toilet paper, even had extra sunscreen, etc).
The communication with the owner was top notch. Even when there was an issue with the microwave, he got it replaced asap.
The place is showing its age a bit and being that close to the ocean, things can get rusty faster but otherwise we were very happy with our stay.
Other pros: beds were comfy; huge bedrooms; amazing view from the balcony; great location (short walk to Barmuda triangle and foodland); pool was amazing; a/c and fans worked well to keep the condo cool.
Would definitely stay here again!

Cons — Missing smoke detectors (we installed two for our stay), no carbon monoxide detectors, small brown roaches, improperly vented dryer- tons of lint on ceiling, balcony did not feel secure & moved when standing on it. We didn’t use it because of this. Laminate counter’s taped together, masking tape was holding the floorboard down to the floor in master bedroom, dirty and dusty furniture, pipes make a gurgling noise every 20-30 minutes in master bedroom, entry closet doors broken, light/vent not working in master, mold/mildew on ceilings & vents in both bathrooms, guest bathroom floor has water damage and smells like mildew Front door- security screen is very difficult to open. Must pull and then unlock (my children couldn’t do it) this is a safety hazard. Security screen doesn’t latch when you exit. Pros— Location is great Beaches are nice Grounds are nicely kept Pool area is maintained nicely & grills cleaned & Boogie boards provided. Host wanted us to schedule a handyman & cleaning appt. Or have them come while we were out. We were way too busy for this and did not want a stranger in the unit. He refunded the cleaning fee & first night stay. The next afternoon he said we could pack and find somewhere else to stay while he addressed all issues. This was not an option as we had a ton of activities planned for the week. We decided to spend most of our time out of the unit and only slept and showered there. I would not stay here again.

This place was perfect for our family! The kiddos enjoyed the pool on the property, and my husband enjoyed grilling overlooking the ocean. The beds were comfy, the house had everything we needed, including everything for days at the beach, and we absolutely will stay again next time we’re in Maui!

This is a large condo - love the 2 queen beds in the second bedroom and the king in the other! My teens had ample space for themselves. The condo can use some upgrades/remodeling (bath, cabinets), but it was clean and suited our purposes nicely. Well equipped with beach chairs, boogie boards, etc. and walking distance to surf board rental, restaurants and stores - and steps away from the beach!

My husband and I enjoyed our stay. We easily found the property and was excited at the many food options within walking distance. The beach park area was across the street for a front row seat at gorgeous sunsets. Beds are extremely comfortable. The complex is quiet for relaxing around the pool and hot tub area. This a second floor condo so views to ocean for whale watching was perfect.

Very comfortable facility in a great location. Hate to recommend cause I’d like to keep this little gem to myself. Communication with Sam was quick and efficient.

Look no further, Sam's property offers everything you'll need for your Maui stay. The newly added AC was welcomed after my first stay at this condo was slightly warmer than I'd care for (we're from the pacific NW and don't tolerate heat as well as some).
The condo has a large TV that hooks up to streaming. We're big NBA fans so that's a must. Comfortable beds and enough seating for meals.
A couple things I'd love to see added - additional beach chairs. The condo sleeps six, but there are only two qdult size chairs.
I'd also love to see an update set of pots/pans/baking dishes. I remember the cookie sheet from my last stay in 2019, it's seen better days!
Sam and his housekeeper are super responsive.
Lovely complex with a great pool that's 8ft deep and hot tub.

Property location is ideal for Kihei. Sam was a great host. After an initial hiccup, Sam was great in making sure we were comfortable in his condo. The unit has been well taken care of for the most part and we were completely satisfied with our stay. We would have no problem recommending this place for others to stay at.

We had the time of our lives and Sam’s place is the perfect central spot for exploring all of Maui. If you’ve never been before Kihei is the place to go. Sam’s place is walking distance (like two blocks) to a great surf school (Maui Waveriders) a great snorkel/dive shop (Maui Dreams) an excellent breakfast/lunch place (Kihei Cafe). And just two more blocks down is a great nightlife area and tourist shops. The place is clean and super quiet. The pool and hot tub are well kept and the grills are a great addition. Sam’s place has all the stuff you’ll need for the beach. And Sam is easily the best host I’ve worked with out of all the places I’ve stayed. Communicates great and even helped me with a spot to store my bags until closer to my flight time on my day of checkout. This was the best vacation we’ve ever had. I was there for two weeks solo and as a female solo traveler I felt safe in and around the complex. We will definitely go back to Sam’s place next time we visit Maui. Mahalo!!!!!

We found the location to be perfect for our stay. We did the Road to Hana and Summit at Haleakala on two different days. Surfed right across the street and enjoyed a quick dip on the pool. Sam and his local contacts were easy to contact and were very responsive and helpful with any questions. We even realized we had left a couple things behind and were able to make arrangements to swing by days later to grab them before flying home. Kitchen was well equipped. Having two full baths and laundry facilities was super helpful for our party of six. Condo is in good shape and very convenient! Could use a good deep cleaning but was generally tidy and served us well for our stay. We loved having a cooler, boogie boards, beach umbrella and chairs as well as wagon to haul it all at our disposal!

We couldn't have been happier with this place. The location was the best possible for beginner surfing- just a short walk down the street to get surfboards and then walk across the street. Charlie Young Beach is beautiful and has nice shade in the mornings and a good spot to snorkel. Shops, restaurants, and grocery stores are close. The condo itself was great- air conditioning in every room, nice washer and dryer, and well stocked kitchen. The condo was very very clean and the grounds and swimming pool were well maintained. We noticed right away that the carpet was worn in the master bedroom, but that didn't bother us with everything else being so nice and knowing it was clean. I looked at lots of places before booking and this was a great deal!

This was one of the best condos at Shores of Maui. Sam takes great care of the unit, making sure it is sparkling clean for all the guests. Location is one of the best in my opinion. Our family loves Kihei/Wailea beaches. So much more of a Hawaiian feel compared to the over crowded Kanapali. Unit is literally right across the street from a surfing beach and steps from great cafes, shops and restaurants. Can’t go wrong with staying here.

The shores of Maui is a beautiful condo property right opposite several beaches in South Kihei. It is in an absolutely perfect location and within walking distance to beaches, restaurants, groceries, etc. We have previously stayed in other condos in this complex and they were nothing short of awesome!! This particular condo however was extremely dirty and was in need of a thorough deep cleaning. The complex itself however is very clean. While I would definitely rent another condo in this development I would not rent this one again. I did not contact the property manager but did contact the owner and received a refund for the cleaning fee.

I myself did not stay in the condo, but I booked this place for my employees who did and they had a wonderful time. They felt as if they had a mini vacation during their business trip because this condo was exceptional.
I myself did deal with Sam, he is wonderful. Due to booking this amongst the craziness of the virus, he personally called me to be sure I was aware of everything and kept in great contact with me during their stay. Sam goes above and beyond for his guests, he has a very detailed write op of everything you need for your stay and has so many entertainment amenities for your stay. He truly shows how great it is booking through VRBO with all that he does.
My employees who stayed there thought the condo was gorgeous, so much so they made sure to tell me that the night they checked in. The people I had staying there are from Hawaii, just from a different island, they loved the look of the condo, its got a beautiful beachy look. The condo was very clean, from the kitchen to the bedrooms as well as the bathrooms.
The unit has a great air-conditioning system that cools very fast, they were highly appreciative at night. If you wanted air movement the fans in the condo work great as well. There is a big washer and dryer set perfect for longer stays or if you pack a little lighter. The kitchen has everything you'd need to cook as well as high quality appliances.
They thought the beds were very comfortable, they had no issue sleeping during their stay. The bathrooms are both full bathrooms which they appreciated because they didn't have to wait for one person to finish before they could use it.
Sam includes not only WiFi, but Netflix, television and DVD's as well, which makes a lazy night at home enjoyable. My employees didn't take advantage of the beach during their stay, but you truly are right on the beach which is very convenient for families. Sam has boogie boards and chairs to use if you do decide to go to the beach. The condo is conveniently located near shops so if you needed anything it is a simple walk to get too.
I would recommend this condo to anyone, from business trips, friends trips, romantic trips, and most definitely for families. Sam includes so much to ensure you have a good stay you truly get your moneys worth. I will most definitely be booking with Sam in the future!

Just returned from an amazing week spent exploring and relaxing in Maui! We had five adult women ranging in age from 26 to 59 and this condo met all our needs! Plenty of space with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, open living area and kitchen, and of course the lanai looking out over the pool and ocean. Loved being able to walk to the beach, the ABC store, restaurants, and a coffee cafe to just name a few. We took advantage of having a kitchen and only ate out a handful of times. Appreciated the beach chairs, snorkel gear, cooler and beach toys. The weather was awesome as we hit the beaches, swam with turtles, took the road to Hana, went whale watching, and so much more! The road to cross to get to the beach can be busy but cars are very good to stop for pedestrians. The convenience to beaches, shops and restaurants out-weighed the traffic. Communication with the owner and property manager was good both before and during our stay. Thanks for a trip to remember!

This is the third time we have stayed at the Shores of Maui and as before we love the location as it is in between all the locations we were interested in visiting. We visited many of the local beaches and tried some new restaurants that opened since our last visit. The condo had everything that we needed and the air conditioning in all the rooms was great. The beach chairs and plenty off beach towels was a plus. We spent the mornings at the beach and always returned to the pool for the afternoon before we got ready to go out to eat. We really had a game plan set before arrival at where we would eat and to take advantage of the happy hour menus. Sam the owner was a perfect host as he was quick to answer any questions we had before arrival. We are planning on coming back in 6 years for our 30th anniversary and we will look at staying in rm 204 again if we need a two bedroom. I would recommend this unit to anyone looking at a two bedroom with great views from the lanai and very reasonable priced.

We are a family of 6 (3 Adults, 2- 4.5 yr olds and 1- 11 month old) and stayed in Sams condo for 2 weeks end of April into May. The Location couldn’t have been more perfect in Kihei. Walking to everything!!! The Cove Park beach directly across from the condo was amazing for kids who want to swim/play in the ocean as it is shallow however the sand was not very “clean” I would recommend Charlie Young Beach for sand play. Sam was great with responses and so was his local contact Shannon. Condo was clean and nicely decorated however not younger kid friendly. Glass tables and Flowers/plants that kids just wanted to play with. Carpet in living was so rough and scratching open my crawling babies knees we had to roll it up. I loved that it had plenty of bath towels and beach towels. We Loved having a unit with a washer and dryer!!! The pool area was nice and the BBQs were definitely great to have. They had beach equipment and a lrg cooler to use which was awesome!!!! The only three things I was unsatisfied with was the cooling of the bedroom with two beds. There is not an Ac Unit, Its a wall vent that is supposed to pull the cool air into the bedroom from the living room. It cools enough to be tolerable at night. The Master bedroom bed was hard and uneven! After long days of being at the beach I wanted a nice bed and that was not the case. Also for the days there was enough of a breeze to have the windows open we wanted the fan on during the lulls at night and the Master bedroom fan was only able to be on low because any more than that it seemed it would fall out the ceiling even after the repair man tried his best to fix it (which he managed to be able to get it work on low). The Pros definitely outweighed the Cons but I think this condo is best for families with older children or no children at all.

We really enjoyed our stay at Sams condo. Great location in Kihei. 3 great beaches walking distance or a 2 -5 min drive. Restaurants and grocery stores all in very close proximity. Pool was great for cooling off as well. Condo had everything we need for cooking meals and toys for the beach. Very comfortable. Very quiet in the evenings as well. Ocean view was great in the mornings. People out surfing by 6 am. A playground was walking distance as well for our toddler to enjoy in the evening, and was always busy with other kids to play with. A/C units worked well very cooling off the unit. Enjoyed the cable package watching NHL playoffs. If you don’t like hockey, well I feel sorry for you. Oh yah Kihei has the best weather on the island. Never saw a drop of rain, sunny all day everyday. Thanks Sam!!!

Coming from Anchorage and having gone through a knee replacement 4 months ago I was really looking forward to being able to walk and swim outside with no ice in sight. This condo was very comfortable and had everything that we needed. The beds were very comfortable and there were enough pillows and towels as well as kitchen necessities. We liked that it is a relatively small complex and everyone was quite friendly. There is a lovely view from the Lanai looking over the pool and out to the ocean. The pool and all the common areas were very clean and well maintained. I used the pool and hot tub every day. Even with my knee I was able to walk to the shops, some restaurants and Charlie Young beach to swim. Parking was not difficult but you cannot park directly in front of this condo. There is a short walk from the parking area, around the corner and up a flight of stairs. This is really only a problem if one is inhibited walking, for example, needing a walker or crutches. If we return to Maui I would not hesitate to rent this condo again.

Shores of Maui condo was perfect! We could watch whales from our lanai everyday. The kitchen was stocked with all the necessary items plus extras that other vacationers had left behind, the outside shared grill area was great as well! We used it a few nights! Condo had beach towels and lots of beach items for all our beach adventures! We left 2 more boogy boards to add to their collection. Ac worked great to keep condo cool on those hotter days. Only thing I would suggest to get is a clock for the master suite. Condo was located in a central spot in Kihei where we could walk to shops and a variety of restaurants along with great beach’s. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely keep Sam’s condo in mind for future trips!

The condo is well stocked, clean, beautifully decorated, and has great air conditioning! The owner is friendly, cooperative, and communicative. The location is perfect, and the Shores of Maui is a great place to stay! Thanks so much!

Very comfortable apartment across the street from a small beach. Easy access to restaurants and stores and Charley Young beach within walking distance. The apartment itself was well equipped except for frying pans. The pots and pans could use an overhaul. The facilities are nice and well maintained. I would stay here again. But before you stock up on condiments, check what previous renters left behind. Overall, it was a perfectly fine vacation rental.

We had a lovely stay in this condo. The location was great if you want to get in any surfing/surf lessons and there were many shops and restaurants within walking distance. The owner was attentive and contacted us to make sure we got in to the condo with no issues and the condo was well-maintained. The pool was lovely as well and we spent a lot of afternoons by the pool when the wind picked up and we did not want to be on the beach. I would recommend this condo to a friend!

Sam was terrific to deal with, all the way down to providing directions to the condo from the airport and the locations for dining and things to do and see while in Maui. Upon arrival at the condo it was quick to see that the VRBO posting was exactly as Sam has described, equipped with all the household amenities needed for your stay as well as items for the beach including beach chairs, boogie boards and umbrella. The location of the condo I would describe as the best location on South Kihei, perfectly situated across from Cove Park and a quick walk to the beach. The second floor view from the condo provides the perfect setting for morning coffee or a evening cocktail overlooking the pool and a view of Cove Park. Thank you Sam for a great vacation, would not hesitate to return.

We brought our 4 little kids to Maui and had a friend and her son stay with us (8 in total). The condo accommodated all of us easily. The condo was nicely renovated and had great appliances including a large fridge for all of our groceries. The location of the condo was really great as well. It is very close to restaurants, shopping, and a grocery store. The best part of the condo was the pool and hot tub looking out to the ocean and being able to whale watch from the pool or condo. Also the 3 brand new Weber grills that looked out to the ocean are any barbecuer's ideal view!
The owner was really great to work with. He was friendly and responded to emails and texts rapidly.
Thank you very much. We had an awesome time.

We enjoyed 2 weeks at The Shores of Maui during Christmas , the condo was perfect for our family of 2 adults and 2 teenage kids. As stated in other reviews the condo is nicely equipped with everything we needed. We arrived to an inviting and clean environment. The pool area, including the barbecues are kept very clean as well. There is a great view off the 2nd story balcony of the ocean and pool area, we spent a lot of time just enjoying the outdoor space. The location is great, as there are many restaurants, shops, and beaches within a short walk, also centrally located to many attractions and excursions on Maui. Sam, the owner was very helpful , both previous to our stay and during. If we ever have the opportunity to visit Maui again, we definitely would love to stay at these accommodations and would highly recommend this condo to anyone else planning a trip to Maui. Thank you Sam for opening your home to us, we enjoyed every minute of it.
