Great location for Haleakala Sunrise Bikes, Road to Hana and shopping in Lahaina. View from the balcony is EXACTLY what is pictured. Great communication with manager from the moment we landed until the day we left. Would recommend very highly to anyone! Mahalo...

Rating Details: The property manager was somewhat unhelpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Oven/Stove did not work correctly. Intermittent problems with burners and heat. Not possible to cook a meal. TV cable had intermittent issues as well. We were advised to "jiggle the wires behind the TV to get it to work. This was totally unsatisfactory. But, we were moved to another comparable unit and all was perfect. Would we recommend Unit 208? Emphatically not. It appeared the upkeep was lacking and there was very little attention to detail before renting the unit. Unit 503 (where we were moved to) was outstanding in every way. Wish we had known all this before booking. We very likely will not be back. So the first two days were dreadful. The second 8 days in a different unit were superb.

After a busy day, it was great to be able to relax on the balcony -- watch the sunset and listen to the waves. Also nice to have the small pool available. We appreciated the setup inside the condo as well with the stocked kitchen and the arrangement of living room and bedroom.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great location, spacious, easy access, beachfront with amazing views and nice in unit amenities. The bed was comfy, but there was no lock in the bedroom window that anyone could access from the outside. I let the contact person know, and after 2 nights someone came while I was out and put a small piece of wood in the windowsill. I do think this needs to be addressed further, as there were some questionable people around the area and it didn't feel safe as a single traveler. The unit did have some visible water damage and a mildewy smell, but it wasn't terrible. The laundry room upstairs needs a serious update. I would revisit if the lock situation were properly addressed.

It’s across the street from our favorite bakery, The Sugar Beach Bake Shop and it’s quick access to Lahaina, Wailea and Paia. The unit is definitely dated inside with old furniture but we are almost never in there besides to sleep so it didn’t bother us. I would definitely recommend this place!

Could not have been better

Great condo literally right on the beach. Very quiet and lowkey which we loved and right across the street from a corner store and local farmer’s market. No more than 15-30 min max away from all the big must sees on the island. Only complaint is (and maybe I read the info wrong) the laundry unit is community and on a separate floor of the unit- not inside your condo. Overall- we’d stay again!

I grew up staying in 5 star hotels (sue me, I didn't choose that life), so when I tell you this property is incredible, know that is my basis. The property has a clean, modern aesthetic which immediately sets it apart from many of the other rentals in this area. The Unit had all the modern amenities you would expect from a well maintained apartment: dishes, cups, utensils, basic soaps, toilet papers, paper towels, etc., dishwasher, garbage disposal, so no complaints there. The fridge and dishwasher are both rather large, which made it easy to store our groceries for the week and cook from home. The unit is no more than 50 feet from the water and when sitting on the deck or with the door open we were serenaded by the soft lapping of waves. The beach itself was a bit windy, but the winds are likely why the waves are as gentle as they are. Overall, the unit made for a relaxing, well stocked, and gorgeous home-base for our maui trip. Management was very attentive to our calls and texts. We had a major issue our first night and the management was very responsive, we got it resolved within 4 hours despite being after 5pm. Overall, this was a 5/5 experience, especially given the cost, and the property exceeded our expectations. However there were some minor negatives that, while noticeable, were not enough to detract from the 5/5 recommendation, especially at this price point. I'll describe below just for fair warning. The mattress was just okay, typical spring mattress, and the pillows weren't particularly great, reminded me of those cheap cotton pillows you'd get from a big-box store. The air conditioner was much stronger in the common area than the bedroom, and we had to leave the bedroom door open half an hour before sleeping to get the bedroom to the temperature we wanted. The bathroom sink took a long time to drain, probably about 30-45 seconds after we would use it to wash our hands. These things are not enough to detract from the overall experience, but fair warning to anyone who rents here. I cant speak to renting for groups of friends or families with children, but our experience was exceptional. Very happy and would rent again in a heartbeat.

This listing was exactly as described, very comfortable accommodations and gorgeous view of the beach. Lovely little area to sit on the beach or relax on the grass higher up, spray station and pool. My only cons to the trip were there seemed to be ants in the condo when we arrived, no recycling and some of the “house rules” seems pretty strict (a threat of a $200 fee if you used too many towels..?) especially for a 6+ day stay. Overall was great for our stay, a quick 10 min drive to everything in Kihei, less than an hour to the rest. Rental car/TURO highly recommended!

My daughter and her 6 month old visited me during my stay, it couldn't have been a cleaner, better spot for easy poolside chats, quiet baby naps and little errands across the road at ABC, Sugar Beach Bake Shop and the farmer's market. Sunrise and sunset beach walks for Grandma too--perfect!!

Great communication from start to finish! Very thorough directions for laundry/pool/check-in. Great location for the beach, ABC store, shave ice, bakery. Centrally located between Lahaina and Wailea. Perfect size for our family with two kids. Security staff very friendly, gas grills and pool were all great. Would stay again!

Overall, our stay was good. We have stayed in many VRBO properties on the islands, and the location of this unit can't be beat! If traveling with more than two in your party, I would suggest contacting the management company for extra bedding. Only extra sheets were provided, but luckily our daughter brought a blanket. Unfortunately, the air conditioning was OUT in the entire building for a few days of our stay. Not anyone's fault but I would have appreciated a heads up, as it was scheduled maintenance! Location is a FIVE but the unit itself was a THREE - averaging it out to a FOUR STARS!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Everything was just as we imagined. We have stayed at the KBR in the past and this was the first time that we used the beach in front of the property. We had a party of 22 and it made it easy to spend time together. The winds picked up around Noon everyday and we would move to the pool. I don't have much to complain about, but one thing that I would suggest is providing a mop or a swifter wet jet to deal with the floors. Other than that it was great.

The full kitchen, was also a nice thing to have so you could do you own cooking and not have to eat everything at a restaurant.the only thing, (in which they had nothing to do with at all) is another renter had 7 kids that were loud. every think was prefect.

Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The unit was in a great location and had a great view!The kitchen and bath had recently been redone and looks good. The furniture and draperies are dirty and should be replaced. I was not comfortable sitting on anything including the cushions on the patio furniture. The lady at the desk downstairs was more interested in her personal phone call than helping me get my car registered. Loved having the beach right there and thank you for having beach chairs in the unit.There are many other properties that I would look at first before going back to this one.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I work on Maui and have stayed here before. Lovely location and vibe. Just off the beach and a smaller property. Sadly, it was the epicenter for the Dec. 6 tropical storm that flooded all the bottom units. This unit was fine and actually housed many of the stranded renters from the bottom floor. What can be said about the people who stay in this complex? Amazing, kind, helpful, gracious people. I hope they can clean up the complex soon and get back to normal. I will stay here again and again!

You’re just steps away from the beach and right across the street from the best shaved ice around. The location couldn’t have been more perfect because you’re in the middle of the south side of the island, just a short drive to other great beaches and activities. Definitely recommend this place!

It was a great spot - not super fancy by any means but had everything we needed. not-quite-four-stars is because we had to call to get bedding for the second bed (but someone arrived right away to get that settled) and there were a few weird things with communicating - the pool code in the guest book was incorrect and the laundry was inaccessible at a time it was listed to be open. Mostly, though, you're in Maui and RIGHT ON THE BEACH so who cares? Beautiful all times of day and convenient to the whole island. Being next door to the canoe club was fantastic - we got to watch a race on our last day. And the businesses just across the street - shave ice, farmers market, bakery, etc - were all so special and convenient.

Comfortable, although needs some slight updating of things that in the the end are not really important. Clean, everything works. Awesome to be so close to the ocean! Jumped right in every day, and was able to go paddling with Kihei Canoe Club right next door! Amenities close by such as ABC Store, all else very close by. Central location on the island to get to all the other fantastic stuff Maui has to offer. Very impressed with condition of property after terrible storm of Dec 6 which caused flooding in this area. Owners have obviously worked very hard to bring property up to great condition.

If you love the sound of the ocean and a great view of the water, this is the spot. Overlooking sugar beach, this area of Kihei isn’t very crowded and the beach is pretty safe and great for swimming. The condo was fine for two people, although the hideabed was not very comfortable, it had everything we needed. Across the street from the ABC store, bakery and farmers market, everything was very convenient. My mom and I had a great time and I would definitely stay here again.

The condo has everything we needed; king size bed, air conditioning, full kitchen and balcony on a swimable/walkable beach. Sugar beach is a great beach, across the street was a nice farmers market try the fresh pineapple, an ABC store, an amazing bakery ( had macaroons, puffy donuts, quiche, mango bread, etc) and a shaved ice place. The condo complex has a foot wash and this condo has beach chairs, umbrella, beach towels and cooler - everything you need for a day on the beach. The pool is small but just right. Shari the property manager was very responsive when we needed her. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Overall the biggest plus of this stay was the proximity to the beach. You’re steps away from a wonderful beach to walk, swim, and enjoy. The condo itself could benefit from a good cleaning. There is mold in several areas, and the condo smells of mold. Not totally unexpected in a beachfront condo, but we have stayed in other condos where a greater effort was put into cleaning.

The unit was even more spacious then we had thought from photographs. It was a perfect space for us to spread out and relax in for our week long vacation and the closeness to the beach was not exaggerated, you can sit on the balcony with your coffee and watch the ocean directly in front of you. It was great.

There were a couple of issues the first day but we emailed the owners and they were resolved immediately! Mahalo for a wonderful retirement vacation!! The Croft’s
