Beautiful view. Great location with food trucks next door and a grocery store across the street. Beach chairs and gear provided in a closet. Clean. Extras such as paper towels, garbage bags, shampoo & conditioner, etc provided.

Absolutely stunning property. There are so many things to do within walking distance and anything else is a quick drive down the road. We had a small snag with the door lock code upon check in, but it was resolved in less than an hour. The area can get slightly noisy at night as there’s a public beach next door, but 10/10 would recommend!!

Condo was absolutely perfect! Beautiful ocean view. Loved sitting on the deck watching all the whale activity.We will definitely book this condo again. We arrived and the only issue was the 2 twin beds weren’t converted to a king bed. We called and the next day someone came to convert it. We also were able to check in early and for a small fee were able to check out late as our flight wasn’t until late evening.

This is our third time staying in this condo and we absolutely love it. It has become our home away from home. Couldn't ask for location!

This spacious oceanfront third floor condo gives the impression you are living over the ocean beach. The surf sounds throughout the condo. The bedrooms are large for the location and the main bedroom has floor to ceiling glass windows to the ocean beach. You can whale watch from bed! The beach can attract noisy people at night so light sleepers beware. The condo has all the dishes and pots you could need. We usually cooked and ate on our lanai over the beach. The condo is walking distance to a supermarket, health food store and fish market.

The view from this condo is awesome from the balcony in the living room and the floor to ceiling windows in the main bedroom. The beds are comfortable and furnishing are very nice. Check in and out was easy and a key code for the door instead of keys is very nice.

This condo far exceeded our expectations with regard to the location and the view. We were looking forward to morning coffee on the deck watching and listening to the waves outside our balcony. We had no idea we had THE front row seat to it all! Hearing the waves all night long was so relaxing. We could see and hear it all from not only the balcony, but our bedroom. This property is very well maintained - looks to be recently updated. We had all the amenities we needed and plenty of room for our family of 4 to be on vacation together and not on top of one another. Everything we wanted to do (swim, snorkel, walk the beach) was literally right out our door. (Beach chairs and boogie boards even provided.) We have already decided to stay here again when we visit Maui. Thank you so much for providing such a beautiful place for us to vacation!!!

The property had a great location…just a few steps to the beach. We rested to the sound of the ocean every night and woke up to it every morning. Breakfast on the lanai was incredible as were the sunsets. Walking distance to food, groceries, beach supplies and everything you need.
A bit more instruction on use of the amenities as well as departure expectations would have been helpful…parking/towels, and dishes, laundry etc. would be helpful. But not a big deal.
We would definitely stay again.

The unit was as expected and the location perfect. I especially enjoyed watching the sunsets from the lanai. My grandchildren (15 &11) enjoyed the beach and the pool. We appreciated the beach chairs and the boogie board. Since there were 5 of us we made full use of the beds and sleeper sofa. There was also a cooler and ice packs provided. We all wished that we could have stayed longer than one week.

The condo had everything we needed. And the view and closeness to beach was better then expected. Many shops and restaurants within a 20 minute drive.

This condo had everything you need, great view, comfortable couch and all the beach toys you need. Loved waking up every morning to see the ocean outside our windows, and every night we had a front row seat for the Maui sunset.

We loved our stay at this unit. Everything about it was terrific! The unit was very clean, the linens and towels of good quality, and the kitchen is well equipped. The unit feels very roomy.
The location is incredible! The balcony overlooks the beach with just a walkway between the building and the beach. It was so wonderful to be able watch the ocean and listen to the crashing waves! Also, the snorkeling in the ocean right in front of the unit was awesome! We would definitely want to stay here again if we return to Maui

We had a great experience at this rental. It really is as close to the beach as it looks in the photos, and being on the 3rd floor there was never a lack of privacy or much noise from the beach or walking path. The unit has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The amenities are fantastic - two pools, a nice restaurant, coffee shop, tennis courts, and of course being right next door to the sand beach. One downside: you have to pay separately to use the gym. Across the street are a number of restaurants and a small grocery store. Within a 15min drive are plenty of shops, a mall, and a Safeway.
Some of the bathroom fixtures are showing their age (e.g. the tub drain is rusted), the larger binoculars are out of collimation (not aligned) and thus useless. And the Fodors 2001 guidebook needs to go. But the furnishings and TV are all updated and everything is comfortable. A bunch of beach toys and chairs are available in the closet as well.
We had a great time here. If we return to Maui, I would probably rent this unit again.

This unit itself is on the 3rd floor and is directly above the beach. The views of the ocean from the floor to ceiling windows in the Master Bedroom and the full length sliding glass doors in the living room + the lanai were absolutley incredible. We saw whales every day and even saw some turtles swimming near the shore. We slept every night with the windows open and had the best sleep with the sound of the ocean waves in the background. The beach is directly accessible from the stariwell and was very large with lots of soft sand to set up on. The unit had it's own beach chairs, lounge chairs, umbrella, and water toys so we didn't need to rent anything. Grocery store and lots of restaurants directly across the street on the island side. We will definitely be back.

The oceanfront view was amazing. We stayed here in late January and watched the whales every day from our balcony. The unit was clean and well equipped. I would highly recommend staying here and we can't wait until our next trip back. Thank you for the great stay!

First time doing a condo in Hawaii & with Vacasa. View was amazing! Loved hearing the waves from our bedroom. Condo worked perfect for our family, everything we needed. Perfect location, could walk to grocery store. Had issue with air conditioning, it was fixed right away during the holiday.

This is a great property! We've stayed at Ka'anapali Shores before and like it because of the amenities and location, but this unit was amazing. The view is even better than pictures can capture. We had everything we needed in the unit, and super close store and food options for anything we wanted. We were there during the storm, so the weather was hit or miss, but being able to listen/watch the waves regardless of the weather made the trip. The sunsets were amazing, and we saw a huge turtle floating around in front of the balcony on our last day :)

Fantastic property! Stunning views, listen to the ocean while you fall asleep, fun beach - even managed a bit of surfing on a small wave out front. Great unit for families ( we are a family of 5). Lots of space, and everything you need. Highly recommend this property.

First, let me differentiate between the condo and the management company. The condo was great, views were amazing. It was clean and as described in the listing. All of our issues were with the communication and lack of attention to detail by the management company.
1. We were not told that we had to get a parking pass from the front desk of the hotel. We had to figure that out the first morning we tried to leave the parking lot. Also, the condos are not part of the hotel and the hotel staff makes it very clear that they do not want to deal with the condo renters.
2. Under “included amenities” the listing included the gym. In fact, we chose this condo over another because the other listing showed a price to use the gym each day and this one showed it as included, which covered the additional cost of this condo over the other. This was another communication error, gym cost WAS NOT included.
3. Day 2 of our vacation we come back from the beach to find a strange man in our condo. Apparently the washing machine was broken and he was a repair man. We were not notified by the management company that a repair person would be there. We were very happy that our teenager daughter had not been in the condo alone when he entered. He stated that the washing machine was broken and another could be installed the following day. We were booked for 9 days and chose and condo so we could wash clothes and not pack so heavily.
4. After no new washing machine was installed the following day, we finally called the management company back (hadn’t heard from them), only to find out that the owners had to procure the new washing machine and it would not be delivered until AFTER we leave. We then escalated the situation to a supervisor (Corey) who promised to check to see if he could get us into another unit. Never heard back from him! We did laundry in the sink for our entire trip, we didn’t want to spend any of our time on Maui in a laundry facility! Which is the reason we rented a unit with a washing machine…
5. “Corey” stated that we would get a $225 credit for our trouble. That was the only follow through that actually happened on the property management’s part.
I’m sure 99% of the time, when you rent a Vacasa managed property, everything is great. However, if you have any issues during your stay, this is when their complete lack of customer service becomes a huge issue. We will never stay in a Vacasa managed property again.

The condo was exceptionally clean and so close to the beach and pool. The beds were also super comfortable. It's a wonderful place to stay!
