Alicia was a great help, very quick to respond, we truly felt she wanted us to have the best experience and was eager to assist. Property was just as stated, beautiful, well furnished. Thanks for everything and would recommend to anyone looking for a great place to stay.

Beautiful view and 20 steps from the ocean. Super clean and well stocked for a person with diet restrictions that has to eat in. Hard to find units that come like this! The bed was a little too soft for me but all the other amenities outweighed the negative on the bed.
Then there’s Alicia who I communicated with. She is wonderful. Seamless check in and communicates super well.
The only drawback was the stay was too short. I guess that means another time!
Thanks Alicia for everything!

My wife and I had a wonderful time at our oceanfront Maui condo! Everything was very organized along with a very easy check in.
We couldn’t get enough of the view! We felt very lucky to wake up on Christmas morning to the unobstructed ocean view with so many whale sightings!
We will definitely be coming back again. Thank you for allowing us to stay at your property!

Everything about this property was spot on. The pictures were not deceptive. This great place had the most amazing view of the sunset. It is a ground level unit. You can walk out your sliding glass door and you are 50 feet from the ocean. There are chairs to layout and watch the sunset in or just listen to the surf.
2 beach chairs in the closet were perfect to walk down to the beach. Maybe 1 minute walk. If you turn left at the beach stairs, there is a spot that has natural shade. The sea turtles love this spot.
I cannot say enough about the property.
The owner was easy to work with. I can't wait to go back.

For our first visit to Hawaii we could not ask for a better place to stay. Location was as good as you could ask for. The condo had all the amenities we needed and then some. We will be staying here again in the future.

This place was perfect in many ways. Every night we watched the sunset. Snorkeling was excellent and even swam with turtles. Food trucks are a short walk away as well as some good restaurants.
It was quiet and we really felt comfortable and relaxed!

We really appreciated the first floor unit just several yards from the beach. It felt very private, even though it’s a several story condo building. It’s an older building. Very helpful staff, well equipped kitchen and unit, and Alicia (property manager) was very gracious and responsive.

This property was perfect. The unit was clean and comfortable, the pool was quiet and a great temperature! We watched whales off the lanai every morning and huge sea turtles were right along shore feeding. We could walk the beautiful beaches to restaurants and the grocery store is right across the road. Alicia was very accommodating and easy to communicate with. We would definitely stay here again!

Everything was perfect about our stay in this wonderful unit. Alicia was a pleasure from start to finish, great communication and even helping with the TV remote after we checked in! The location is perfect. The views and sunsets were better than imagined. The unit was spotlessly clean, well stocked, and comfortable.
We stayed at a high end resort for the first 6 days of our trip to Maui and we agreed that our stay in this property was even better!

Overlooking the ocean. Perfect place for your cup of coffee every morning. Full kitchen. This place was a joy. We were able to do our laundry prior to going home or when needed. Communication was easy, polite, and prompt. Thank you for everything. I can’t wait to come back. Hopefully sooner than 9 years.

This is an ideal location in Maui. All the amenities you could ever need, and more! Just a short walk or drive to many famous beaches and restaurants, but you won't need them as the beach in front is incredibly quiet and peaceful. While there was some construction happening at our unit during our stay, we still had a blast in Maui. Alicia was helpful in painting a picture for us of what to expect with the construction. It will only be better when construction is wrapped up!

Nice location. Easy access to the beach and pool. Great place for spend your vacation to enjoy the beach and view. Yes you need to work around the construction schedule and clean up the dust a bit but Alicia provide enough detail so we're prepared for it.

The whole experience from start to finish was great! Alicia was quick to respond and so helpful. The location was great, the unit was well-appointed, and we loved having the lanai for meals and enjoying sunrises, sunsets, and rainbows! My two daughters and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay and it was so hard to leave when the time came. We’d certainly love to go back!

Everything went perfectly well, from booking to the time we sadly departed. Alicia was very upfront with us about the ongoing building work, though we found the noise to not bother us at all (however, we greatly appreciate Alicia's transparency). The location is absolutely perfect. Walking distance to a food truck park and many shops, the beach is RIGHT THERE (in fact, you can hear the waves from inside the unit), and you're not far at all from Ka'anapali and Lahaina. The property itself is fantastic. Plenty space, spotless, and fully stocked with everything you need for your stay. The building has a great pool, plenty parking, and very easy beachfront access. If you're looking for a laid back vacation with amazing views of the ocean and neighbor islands, this place is perfect. I can't say enough good things about our experience here.

We were so thankful to have stayed in Maui at this particular property. Everything we needed was there in the unit and the view was simply amazing. We loved being on the first floor in particular so we could spread out a little and it was quick for the kids to get to the pool and to the beach. We loved how mellow it was at the complex and when we went down the boardwalk to the hotels and other places we actually thankful, we would never stay anywhere else, it was too busy down they way with a million people everywhere. The quiet atmosphere, the great location and the price are why we will book again.

This place looks just like the pictures. The location of the unit is perfect. Ground floor, close to pool, close to parking and best of all the beach is right outside the lani. Also, the grounds are well taken care of with beautiful trees and fauna. Pool and BBQ area were clean and well cared for. Restaurants and the grocery store are within walking distance. Our family would definitely stay here again.

Where do I start!!? Alicia was extremely prompt and easy to communicate with! Very informative and friendly! The condo was everything I had hoped for! Clean, had a lot of the basic necessities and decor was sooooo aloha!! Listening to the waves at night was pure heaven and I really loved being on the ground floor! Oh and the bed was sooo comfortable we slept like rocks! Haven’t slept that good even on my own bed! Can’t wait to stay here again!!! Thank you!!

We had a wonderful 8 nights at this condo. Everything was clean and in good order. Bed was very comfortable. AC worked well. Being on the ground floor with a lanai was a nice convenience. The unit was better stocked that most.
Alicia was clear and super prompt in responding to questions.
The location is great, just a bit north of Whaler’s Village and the mega resorts in Kaanapali. Overall a great stay!

Appreciated how timely and accommodating Alicia was in helping us with her condo. Condo was very nicely presented and what a view of the ocean! We found the kitchen smartly stocked and appreciated any and any updates the condo offered. Alicia got back to us almost immediately any time we corresponded after we booked. Furniture was comfortable and the condo unit comes with helpful and appropriate amenities like a cooler and beach towels and laundry soap. Thank you Alicia for an amazing stay at your beautiful unit. Wonderful! Hope to see you again!

Wow what I can I say, we had the best experience staying in this unit. The sound of the waves crashing at night while laying in bed was probably the highlight. Furniture and decor is just what I would expect from a condo in Maui. They stock the unit with all of your kitchen and household essentials, there is no need to buy anything like this. Upgraded appliances and nice walk in shower.
We woke up every morning before sunrise and headed out to the lawn chairs just outside our patio and sat watching the sunrise, so peaceful.
Location is perfect, just outside of the main hotel strip in Kaanapali, no need to valet your car and pay for parking every time you leave which is a plus. Pool is sufficient, we didn’t really go on vacation for this though so for us it was perfect for the few times we hung out there. I would rather be in the ocean.
Highly suggest breakfast at Slappy Jacks (banana bread French toast or avocado toast) and Castaway Cafe (huevos rancheros or loco moco) while staying there.
Our next visit to Maui we will be looking to stay here again.

The Mahana is the perfect relaxing getaway. My wife and I stayed in this unit for 10 days and enjoyed every minute! The condo is very well decorated and well stocked with all of the basics. The sunsets every night from the lanai, direct ocean front, easy access to the beach walk and Dukes restaurant next door; not to mention the grocery store just across the street make this condo stand out. The booking process is very simple and secure. We would not hesitate to recommend The Mahana for your stay in Maui.

I'm torn. Do I tell everyone how incredible this place is or do I not so it can be kept a secret....ok, I give in. It's a dream! It's perfect! It's paradise! This February will be our 9th annual stay at The Mahana and were ready to book our 10th! Alicia and her family are wonderful hosts. Mahalo nui loa for giving us such an place to call home while we're there. Aloha!

I recently stayed in Condo 114 for 4 nights. Wish it had been for 14! it was absolutely beautiful and by far the best accommodation I had on my trip. The location is perfect and I loved sitting outside in the lanai enjoying meals, sunset drinks and relaxing. Also I loved the décor!
My booking agent was extremely helpful and organized everything beautifully.
I'll definitely be back.....sooner rather than later!

My husband and I have been taking vacations for 35 years. The condo at Mahana (114) is by far the best vacation we have ever enjoyed. Breakfast on the patio, walks along the beach, sunsets, pool, hot tub, clean and comfortable condo, and much, much more. One little discovery was the beachwalk which we took from the condo all the way to Whaler's Village. Every day my husband reminded me that we are going to return . . . soon. I agree!

perfect place close to a lot of stuff to walk! good snorkeling either side of condo. quiet, great view, loved the ground floor! would highly recommend!!!!

You are literally 20 yards from the ocean. The condo fronts a reef, so you have to walk 100 yards to enter the ocean, but you are still closer to the beach than you would be at a really large resort, like the ones further south. There is little shopping center close by so you can walk to dinner, grocery store, shaved ice, etc.
The condo itself is nice and super clean with everything you could need. Appliances weren't brand new, but I'm not going to Hawaii to cook and clean, so I wasn't looking for a gourmet kitchen. It was perfect for making breakfast and lunch, with grills available for your use.
The water near the condo is calm and good for snorkeling, SUP, and swimming. In fact, some of the locals get together for a Sunday morning ocean swim along this beach. You are probably not going to find enough waves for boogie boarding and surfing anywhere on Kaanapali beach, but you can go to beaches just below Lanai if you want to surf.
The pool is kind of small. If you have younger kids that want water slides and river pools, this wouldn't be the condo to choose. If you like being on the water and swimming in the ocean as opposed to a pool, this condo is for you.

We loved our stay at the Mahana! Condo is clean and spotless! The views are amazing!
Quick Details -
Condo - Clean and spotless
Floor - Perfect for us. Some foot traffic, but see rest of review below. Ground floor = best floor (in this case).
Views - Amazing
Location - Perfect. The building is tucked away from the main road so you get privacy, but you can walk to the main stuff within 5 mins. Exactly what we wanted.
Re-rent? - Yes, absolutely. We will definitely recommend this condo to others and would certainly want to rent again.
More details -
We stayed there for a full week and loved every minute of it. We also just decided to relax and enjoy the condo during the day a couple of days. There is certainly foot traffic you see being on the ground floor, but the windows have a slight tint on them so you still get some privacy. Either way, being on the ground floor is amazing - we can walk right out to the pool or the beach. No need to deal with elevators or carrying stuff up and down.
We also picked the condo because it had a kitchen and we made good use of it. We got fresh veggies, fruits and grocery from nearby farmers market maui. The condo is perfectly located so if you need to run out to grab something - there is a supermarket within a 5-min walk.
Alicia was super responsive and helpful! Overall a phenomenal vacation.

Location, Location, Location!!! This unit is literally "ON THE WATER". My Fiancé and I were visiting Hawaii to attend our friend's wedding and this unit provided us with excellent accommodations. It is Ocean Front, centrally located, and close to all the shopping and golfing. We are not a pretentious couple and didn't mind the somewhat dated amenities, albeit they had everything you really needed in the unit. However, here are the main reasons I didn't give it the extra 5th Star. Although the TV's were HD Capable, the cable in the unit was not High Definition. This made for some very "grainy" broadcasts. Also, regardless of the reason for my travel, I can almost NEVER escape some work duties that include logging into my company servers, email, websites, etc... The internet speed in this unit was almost "dial-up" speed, although the internet service they provided was included and easy to get onto.
That said, we'd still go back to this unit anytime we are visiting Maui.
Mahalo!!

We have just returned home from a wonderful few weeks at the Mahana #114 in Maui. We love the main floor condo with its oversized lanai ocean front location and proximity to the pool. The location makes whale watching and evening sunsets our favorite part of the day
The owner, Ben, welcomed us to the spotless condo and showed us the new bedroom furniture and carpet. He is always willing to make things better and to add items that may be missing or changed since we last visited. An example was the Pack and Play and highchair for our grandchildren who were also staying in the Mahana as it was easier to stay on the ground level for a nap.
We appreciate the convenient location of the Condo as the grocery store, great pizza place, breakfast shop, nail and hair, plus Snorkel shop are all just across the way.
The Condo is always clean and well stocked. This is a good value place to stay.
There is a super board walk from the Condo for several miles. There is a favorite breakfast stop on the beach. Also Dukes restaurant and bar is just close by.
We feel that the Mahana 114 meets all our needs for a very relaxing, enjoyable vacation and is now our go to place for each spring.
