Reviewer Comments:
Our stay at Kihei Sands was perfect. It was so great staying just steps from the beach. We had multiple units with grandparents / family, and the small location made it easy to always find a patio table for lunch, beach chairs for lounging. The properties all had their own beach gear that we used both on this small harbor beach, and also brought with us to bigger surf beaches elsewhere on Maui. The location is perfect to either hang on the beach, but also central to Maui so you aren't far from any of the tourist spots. Fruit stands, convenience store, and restaurants all walkable from the condo. We have stayed on Maui before this trip, and would stay here again over the huge resorts elsewhere.

I’ve stayed at this location 3 times. When we arrived, the toilet was running non stop & the fridge was leaking water all over the kitchen. The office closed before we arrived. We went down the next morning to report the issues. It took until later in the evening for someone to come fix the toilet. We went down again right before they closed to confirm someone was going to fix it. The person working knew nothing about it. We were having to mess with the tank every single time we used the toilet. We were there for 9 nights. No one ever came to do anything about the fridge. I had to keep using the kitchen towels to soak up the water and washing them. Additionally someone before us had spilled a bunch of water in the freezer and left it. Probably from the ice trays. The ad claimed there were new appliances and with the rust spots inside the freezer i doubt that. Space claims to sleep 6. Just because it can doesn’t mean it should. The table takes up a ton of space and fits only 4. If you pull out the sofa sleeper it makes space so tight you can’t really move. The coffee table is in the way. The furniture is too big for such a small space. The downstairs room has twin beds. They can be combined to make a king. It’s the only room with a door. They charge extra to push it together. Both mattresses in this condo were so horrifically uncomfortable we had to purchase mattress toppers. The headboards for the downstairs bedroom are connected to the wall in the twin bed positions so trying to sit up in bed to watch tv is uncomfortable because there’s nothing comfortable to lean on. The partition in the shower does not reach far enough to stop water from getting onto the floor. So every time you shower you soak the tiny towel they provide and the floor. I spent more on laundry to wash the towels that were soaking up water in this place than I did on my own clothes. Every place I have stayed has insulated coffee cups and wine glasses available. T

Our group consisted of 2 families, with kids ranging in ages from 5 to 15, and everyone was able to enjoy themselves. The condos were comfy and has everything we could have needed. We loved the sand toys and boogie boards. The property is in a great location with lots of shopping and food choices nearby. Would love to come back the next time we visit Maui!

we rented A9, B12 and B14 for one week. We had the most enjoyable experience. The family was able to congregate on our patio and the grandkids could go to the beach easily from there. The children loved the beach and had a ton of fun. We enjoyed the ambiance of the property and the location was excellent. We would definitely recommend this property to others. Thank you so much for an enjoyable week.

Information was shared with us from the beginning of our booking. We received information about the area such as things to do and eat. A week before we received information on how to check-in and check-out of the condo. It was great to receive a welcoming package especially after long flight. We enjoyed the facility and its amenities - pool and beachfront, and we even used the grill for a night in. It was a quiet place and the room was sufficient for a family of 4. We spent most of our time outdoors, surfing and exploring the island. A few things to note. The parking spaces are a bit narrow so you have to be cautious in getting in and out of your car.
The king size bed is upstairs that may hinder those who have trouble with stairs as the stairs are a bit narrow. The bathrooms are an open shower concept with a partial barrier wall but be prepared to have a wet toilet floor. Overall, it was a perfect place for our family. We would go back.

It was like staying in a boutique hotel! Only two stories, maybe about 40 units. Small enough to meet and get to know other guests, many of whom were frequent visitors. The unit was recently updated, and the location was perfect - directly ON the beach. Everything we needed for the kitchen, pool, and the beach were available. Would love to visit again!

We have enjoyed many stays at Kihei Sands & have stayed in both 1 and 2 bedroom units. We have shared a condo with another couple, adult children & have had our grandchildren along with their parents in an additional unit. We enjoy the early mornings on the lanai with a cup of coffee which is provided, watching the sunrise, watching for whales & quiet walks on the beach. There is an ABC store, a bakery and a shave ice store, farmers market & a sandwich shop all within walking distance. Any issues we have had from trouble with the TV, a broken toaster, or missing kitchenware are dealt with promptly. The staff are super friendly and are available & onsite 7 days a week. B14 is a well equipped unit, there are ample dishes, servingware, pots and pans and a good assortment of small appliances.

Kiehi Sands always provides a fantastic Maui experience. It's location and grounds are ideal for soaking up the beauty of Sugar Beach. Our condo is always clean and well maintained, but our favorite part is the beach and pool area where we can relax and enjoy the view, the beautiful sunsets, walking the beach, and seeing the whales appear on a regular basis. The managers are always friendly and helpful, too.

We had a fantastic stay at Kihei Sands B14! The apartment was well equipped; very comfortable; with a lanai view of the ocean; but in particular we loved BBQing at Sunset and socializing with the other residents! The shallow reef to the front right of the property is a little known gem, when snorkelling conditions are right! Sunrise walks on the beach whilst the outrigger canoe club are on the water, whilst sipping the prepared Hawaiian coffee is a great way to start your day! Thanks to Melvin, Bente and the team for making us feel so welcome. We’ll be back!

Wow! What a beautiful spot! Walk out your door to the ocean! The unit had everything you'd need to make a meal even though we never did, too many great spots to eat on Maui. Strongly recommend Monkeypod kitchen! I drank my coffee on the patio and watched whales every morning. Would totally stay here again.

The unit was as described. We just never really were able to enjoy ourselves due to the Pandemic going on. I will say that we had to cut our vacation short due to this and when we asked for a refund ifor the remaining days Kihei Sands Rental’s provided us with 50% return of the remaining days. This was a little disappointing due to the situation however it was the least of our worries at the time.

This was an amazing Condo. The kitchen was well stocked with everything needed. The separate bedrooms and baths was awesome (especially with two kids). It was super clean and check-in and out was a breeze. The location was easily accessible and the beach access was extraordinary with really gentle water which was great for little kids. My family really enjoyed our stay and had a hard time leaving. I would definitely return and recommend this property to friends.

A very nice property, small enough to be personal amongst the guests that varied from seniors to young families. Very easy going, right on the amazing 7 mile long beach of Kihea. Great access to most anything on the central and south part of the island. Two couples, we shared a one bedroom loft unit - 2 twins and 1 King. Great beds. Good climate control. Great kitchen and kitchen appliances / extras including storage containers for extra food and a vitamin for smoothies. Knives were not sharp, but that is very common. A better sharpening stone would have helped. Free and convenient parking. Loved the stay, will come back in the future...... thanks for the great stay.
