We had a wonderful stay. This vacation had been previously postponed because of the Maui fires. We loved seeing the turtles everyday. Snorkeling right outside the backdoor. It was an amazing spot. We would highly recommend it.

Didn't realize there was no air conditioning until we got there and the condo was stuffy. The only way to get natural air flowing through the condo is to open the windows in the bedroom and living room. The problem with that is, the bedroom is right next to the walkway, and stairs, and is facing the parking lot so we couldn't leave them open while using the bedroom. It was also very loud in the bedroom with people using the stairs, walking by, the road was noisy and every morning there was always something going on (trash pickup, lawn care, loud trucks). The condo itself needs to be updated. The carpet had stains, cracked tile, dishwasher took some muscle to get it to close properly to use, and small bugs on the kitchen counter that we couldn't keep away. The best part of this condo is the accessibly to the pool and beach/ocean.

Aloha! We had a spectacular time at this location. Between the daily sea turtle sightings, snorkeling and proximity to shops and restaurants, our days were filled with activities. The evenings were very tranquil and we slept very comfortably.
Mahalo and aloha!

Everything was great except the dish washer didn’t work. My daughter &I loved the fact we could easily walk right out to the pool, grassy area, & beach from our lani. We could have used more barbecue utensils. But it was great using the barbecues right outside our room I would go back again.

Beautiful location with wonderful beach. Great atmosphere and Larry is a gem. Actual rental was clean and ok. Really could use an updating. Couple of issues that were minor but need addressed.

We really enjoyed our stay. The condo is nicely outfitted and is on the ground floor so you can walk right out to the beach. It was a huge plus. There were a couple of minor issues however the owner was extremely responsive.
The complex is fairly small which was nice because you were able to meet the same people from day to day and make friends. We met some really nice people we plan on keeping in touch with.
The grounds and beach were amazing. We saw whales everyday and turtles on the beach on two different occasions.
The only thing I could say that could be improved upon is the bathroom is very small and out dated. That said it was clean and we didn't spend much time in there anyway.
We will definitely be going back.

My husband and I really enjoyed staying here. It was important to me to be able to walk right out to the beach. We saw whales and sea turtles. When the water was calm enough, the beach was nice to swim at. Everyone we met during our stay was kind and welcoming. It was cozy, relaxing, and quiet. We would definitely stay here again whenever we come back to Maui.

Was a wonderful location to get away, enjoy family and nature. Michael was great to deal with and the condo was very comfortable as our home away from home. Thank you Michael!

Condo is great with a private lanai right on the beach. This condo is walking distance to a farmers market, an ABC store and a bike rental shop. Very close to Kaanapali beach and Lahaina. Second time to this property and I would go back it's that good!

Great location. Some small, local shops and restaurants are a short walk away. Literally just steps from the beach. Got to see a couple of turtles on the beach/just off the shore. 10/10 would recommend

My daughter and I stayed for 7 nights and Michael & Rose happened to be staying in their other unit A101 those same days. It was great to meet them because they are such sweet and accommodating people. They showed us their other two units which fabulous as well. Great views in A206 and A101 is huge and incredible. Our unit was pristine well stocked and the views and beach access were phenomenal. Everything was perfect and we’ll be back for sure!!!

We stayed here 2 yrs. ago. We love waking up in the morning to have coffee on the deck watching the whale 🐳 in the distance. The turtles 🐢 would come and beach on the sand every day and be gone by morning. Sunsets are beautiful every evening. Larry the grounds keeper keeps the grounds clean everyday. Wonderful place will be back again.

The condo was wonderful! The location was just right to where you could walk to stores and restaurants. The best part was the view! Did I mention the view!?

Cute, comfortable well kept, well stocked older condo with a fantastic lawn and private beach in a nice, quiet neighborhood.
Loved walking out ground floor to lawn and beach - patio still private with lovely plantings. Beautiful ocean view from kitchen, living room and patio. Only drawback: no AC but nice breeze through condo. Nice break from the busy resorts where it is hard to get a beach/pool chair.

Amazing property and location. Every day was a turtle and whale show. Very close to markets, all kinds of food places and the fish market is amazing. Michael was very quick to respond to questions. Thank you for sharing this incredible piece of paradise.
We’re already planning our next trip.

We absolutely enjoyed our stay. Everything mentioned in the online description was right on. The location was ideal as you walked from the patio to the grass area to the beach and pool area. The unit was fully stocked with beach accessories, towels and kitchenware. Many turtles, snorkeling and swimming directly in front of the unit. We will definitely plan another trip to this same unit. You will not be disappointed!

Great little place. So clean. Have to sleep with windows open because no a/c, which is fine and you get a good breeze. But it can get kind of noisy as bedroom is at the front of the condo right by stairs and trash chute.

Property had a great location steps from the beach. We saw turtles every day. Property is tired with stained carpets, cracked tiles and is in need of being updated. WiFi was almost non-existent. If you need to stay in touch with your office while on Maui this isn't your unit.

Don't know what happened when we enter the house it looks like just been burglarized. Beddings and blankets are still in the washing machine and dryer. We were really shocked and tried to contact the owner but there's no reply until the next morning. The owner sent us a message and saying that he will return the cleanness fee, however, we didn't get anything back. It was the most unhappy thing happened during our stay in Maui.

Our stay at Hale Mahina A105 was nothing short of perfect. The condo was nicely appointed with everything we needed to make our stay complete. There were enough bath and beach towels and the kitchen was nicely stocked with dishes and utensils. We actually managed to cook a couple of times during our vacation.
We loved the direct access to the beach/pool and enjoyed relaxing outdoors. Several turtles came up to the beach during our stay, which was truly memorable. We had some al fresco meals on the lanai, one of which included fresh ahi poke from Tamura's.
On the last morning of our stay, we were greeted by double rainbows. Can't beat that!
Mahalo Rose and Michael for your hospitality.

We had an amazing time and stay in Maui. The location for this place is central to all our favorite spots. The place is beautiful In and out with just steps to the beach. All amenities we needed were available to cook or play. A lot of places in Maui advertise turtle sightings this place has frequent sightings daily. Great beach for swim and play. Thank you for sharing this piece of paradise with us. We will eventually work our way back.

A great place relax, enjoy the sun and water, and see the turtles. The only downside was the paddle board kids taking up lawn space with their paddle boards. We still found space, but they carve out a big area for themselves, that others would have enjoyed. This has nothing to do with the condo or our stay. Just maybe a suggestion to the HOA, to keep the large paddle boards in the beach, rooms, or back by the pool somewhere. Overall we live this place!

We loved every moment on this property! The condo was beautiful and comfortable. The view and access to pool/beach were better than any resort could offer. We loved that only people staying at the property could access the pool/beach with a key, so we felt very safe and secure. We can't wait to return annually!!

We had stayed at 3 resorts during our trip to Hawaii before staying at this apartment. Of all 4 places this was by far our favourite.
The apartment was a perfect size for two adults and one child (7YO). The direct access to the ocean was great, just a few steps away. As we arrived a turtle was crawling up for an afternoon nap, how cool.
The apartment faces west so the sun set can be seen sitting inside the apartment or on the patio.
The apartment is well planned and everything is in working order. It has a very relaxing atmosphere. We are already talking about coming back to stay longer, as we only spent 3 nights at this time. It is closed to shops to buy food and only 15 min from Lahaina where there are plenty of restaurants.

This property is our favorite home away from home and Michael’s hospitality is amazing! The condo was perfect and the sunsets can’t be beat! It’s also so fun to see turtles sunbathing on the beach accessed only by guests of the property. The location is GREAT for easy access to food, shopping and outdoor adventures. We have stayed at this property three times now and will always check here first on future trips to Maui.

If you are seeking a home away from home in a paradise setting - you can't get any better than this lovely updated condo with a beach front lanai. I'm tempted to tell you it's ugly and nasty so I can keep the secret to myself - but that would not be fair to the kindness shown to us when the owner personally took the time to introduce himself and share his vision for this pice of heaven.
The comfortable queen bed was adjacent to a large closet, dressers available and nice closet and laundry area within. A hideabed allows extra bed space in the nice sized living space with open concept kitchen/dinette. The full size refridge and stove makes in unit cooking very doable. The amenities included boogie board and snorkel equipment. This beach is the loveliest of it's ordering buildings with access to the beach from the patio and ability to walk right into the ocean and out more than 1/4 mile and still stand up! We loved the position of the building which allowed for the lovely tropical breeze to filter into the windows and through the unit nicely.
One hint for any newcomers - Hawaii is going solar and as green as possible. BYOS and BYOB...Bring your Own Straw and Bring your OWN Bags. Also - when looking at what to take back to the mainland - NOTE: Check the rules on TSA AND The Hawaii Department of Agriculture. They don't speak to each other - and don't necessarily share each other's rules. I.E. AVOCADOS can't go back ...but pinapple can.
We will definately return!

Perfect for our Honeymoon!...New owners were very friendly & most helpful to us. Private beach is right out the door, sandy pure & had many turtles, fish & super snorkeling area !Condo well supplied & has it all, location is perfect. We would recommend to anyone for an Ocean front condo on Maui, the best overall condo ever, great breeze way thru condo due to trade winds. Favorite restaurants were Lahaina Grille & Mamas Fish House in Paia, book ahead, expensive but a real treat! Don't miss the Farmers Market down the road for great local eats and the local food trucks. This was easily one of the best condos we've stayed in; we were very sad to leave and would definitely stay here again (Anniversary)! We really enjoyed it!
