Great location, clean, quiet, beautiful view from lanai, lots of room. We walked our beach and saw several turtles and whales from our lanai. I would definitely recommend it. Loved the stay and would stay there again. The host was very prompt with replies and very attentative to our needs.

Beautiful property! Saw more whales than we could count right from the comfort of the balcony! Can’t wait to come back

The condo was spacious and comfortable. Barbara was very responsive and appropriately addressed a couple of minor issues. The view was absolutely amazing and we got to watch whales playing in the Bay from our lanai. I appreciated that this was not such a busy part of the island, and shopping and restaurants were a 10-15 minute drive. There is a sweet little beach just a short walk from the condo that is not at all crowded. I would definitely stay here again.

Very nice condo, some things showing their age. We love the location and the view from the lanai. We saw turtles right out in front of our lanai!

Maui is in need of tourists! Everyone was so gracious and thanked us for coming. We almost canceled our trip due to the devastating wild fires but we were encouraged by many people to keep our plans in place. We are glad we listened to the voices of reason.
Our property manager Barbara was one of those voices of reason. She was great about texting us regarding the situation, and encouraged us to not switch to another island-Maui needed our visit for revenue.
The condo was exactly what we expected-quiet with a beautiful view of Maalaea Bay. We watched turtles swimming by the sea wall, long wave surfers, as well as snorkelers and scuba divers while sitting on our lanai.
We did NOT go to the west side, there was plenty to do in other areas, and we felt that going to the west side would be disrespectful.
Maui swap meet was up and running and in need of more shoppers.
We made reservations at restaurants even though at that time they really weren’t needed due to lack of tourists BUT we wanted the staff to know we were coming in case they needed to close due to lack of customers.
Visit this beautiful island BUT PLEASE do it respectfully! Drive the speed limit! Be gracious! Remember they are all dealing with a great loss still.
Mahalo Maui! We will be back!

Very nice appartement, all utensilities for the stay, only downside: cleanliness (clothes from previous guests under bed) and sharp edge of glass covered table in living room. Very kind agent, very quiet, very comfortable. Absolutely recommend!

This condo is everything it claims to be. The views are amazing and the condo was very accommodating. This area is very windy, and in the middle of July we rarely used the air conditioning. We just opened the windows and the air flowed through the entire place. We noticed a huge difference in how comfortable we were in Maalaea compared to Lahaina. The wind definitely helps. The condo had everything we needed for our stay. The kitchen has plenty of pots and pans and utensils, and the washer and dryer worked great. The sunrises were amazing every morning, and we could see turtles from the balcony swimming in the water. The whole area is very quiet and the complex itself is well maintained, but also not far from anywhere you want to go on the island. We found it easy to drive many different places, and shopping was only 20-25 minutes away. We are definitely planning on returning. Barbara was so helpful and a pleasure to work with.

Good location on the island. Condo was super clean. Amazing view! Loved to see the sea turtles just off the sea wall. Great spot as home base for our week in Maui. Barbara gave us a ton of information on restaurants and things to do. She was helpful and responsive. Pool area was good, usually had it to ourselves.

This place was exactly how it looked in pictures. The lanai over looks the sun rise over the ocean and Haleakala. A very well stocked kitchen with amenities as well as a lot of useful equipment in the closets. The neighborhood was quiet but easily in the middle of anything you wanted to do on the island. The unit was clean when we arrived and fully functional so never had to call for any service. The master bed does only have ab sliding door off the living room and there are no blackout curtains and once the sun is up, it is bright in the front rooms but so lovely.

We saw whales most days from our balcony, condo complex is small, just 48 units, nice pool (I had it to myself many days), but it's all sun, no shade. We were surprised there were no premium channels on TV. You can't see whales at night, TV program times in Hawaii are all over the place (either hours earlier or at a completely different time of day), so in the evening there's nothing to watch. The condo itself is just average, and along with a few other minor problems, we wouldn't stay at this unit again. The view, however, can't be beat, and whale sightings were amazing!

This was a perfect location for a restful weeklong trip with my parents. We had beautiful views of the water, could see turtles from the lanai, a short walk to the beach, and a quick convenient drive to many locations. The mirrors on the lanai gave even more expansive views of the waterfront- a simple thing with a big impact. Well stocked with beach equipment-an added convenience. Also, we had rental car battery issues one day and the onsite manager was so kind and jumped the car battery for us so we could a 2 hour wait for AAA. Would definitely stay here again!

4 star location to me because it was water front and quiet
Condo was clean but very old- the only updated was master bath
Front door lock worked most of the time
Trouble with sound on TV- reported to mgr - she said they fixed it but they didn’t
Kitchen had a ton of dishes, 15 knives but none were sharp enough to cut anything
We tried to check in early and the housekeeping staff freaked out and the property manager was very rude about it. It was not a very good Aloha to start on
Other than that the week was fun. It was fun to see the turtle in the water in front from our lanai. Sunrise was beautiful everyday

Overall very nice property. Location is a mixed bag--not too far from anything (South/Kihei, Haleakala, airport, Kaanapali), but have to drive to get anywhere of note. Porch is the best thing--wonderful view, and sheltered from sun and wind. Condo itself overall is nice. Spotless, and well equipped. Appreciate that master bedroom has sliding door access to open into main area--improves the feeling of spaciousness. However, wish the sliding door was made out of more than paper, as it gives no acoustic privacy. Mattresses are on the soft side, not necessarily a pro or con. Only 2 small beach chairs--wish there were enough for a regular party of 4.

Great location, convenient to everywhere. Condo had everything we needed for our stay. It was great that essentials like toilet paper, paper towels, sponge, dishwasher detergent and laundry detergent were provided. The beach umbrella, chairs, towels and cooler were great for days on the beach allowing us to pack lunches and drinks. Will definitely stay here again when we return.
Mahalo,

Property is clean, well maintained and the unit was very nice. Need to do a better job of showing what the beach right there is and is not and how there are very nice nearby beaches.

This was our first time staying at this property. It was great! The place was clean and it was convenient to everything. The sunrise view was awesome. We would stay here again.

We loved the view, saw whales every day and so many turtles coming right up to the edge of the water.
This is the most fully stocked place I’ve stayed. I really appreciate all the consumables that were left for us. Like providing extra paper towels, garbage bags, etc. Also the welcome Banana bread was the best we had on the trip!
Only complaint is the sizes of the TV’s. At night we love to relax and watch TV and both are small for us. We are used to at least at 42” now. New TV’s are cheap, even on Maui (we looked, found 43” at Walmart for $200-$300) If you don’t care about the TV size then this place is great.

It was everything I expected it to be. And a bit more. My family enjoy the views from the balcony. I love the TV in the second bedroom for the children. The sliding door for the main bathroom. The dining room table for six. And especially the master bathroom . Due to the storm that occurred during our stay we were trying to close to home December 3 through the seventh.But it was definitely spacious. And everyone was able to have their freedom. I also like having the washer and dryer my own room. Also a big Mahalo to the welcome basket. This was our second trip to the Maalaea area.
You can see turtles from the balcony . The host furnished a good range of beach accessories. Thank You for that. Ceiling fans in each room,,,2 a/c units living room and guest bedroom,,, there was even a fax/printer machine😂😂.
I will definitely recommend ***

My family of 4 really enjoyed our stay at this condo. It was big enough for us and had everything we needed in the kitchen. Even had things to take to the beach which was much appreciated. Barbara was great to work with and quick with answers to questions.

Traveling with a person in a wheelchair is difficult but this property was completely accessible. It has an amazing view of the ocean where sea turtles swim up to the wall at the end of the property. It’s close to a pier where you can take a boat to do snorkeling and one of the highlights for my kids was the aquarium which is around the corner.

If you stay here you will never want to leave! The condo has everything you need and is very comfortable. The best part is the balcony with table and chairs overlooking the water. We spent the majority of our time out there!

Spent a wonderful week at the property. It was very well equipped, the location and view was awesome and plenty of space for two couples to be very comfortable and enjoy their stay.
Would definitely come back here, god willing.

The AC was a huge plus considering it was warmer than I have ever seen it before in Hawaii. Nice size condo. The window in kitchen could stand a good cleaning but the rest of the condo was satisfactory. I would like to than Barbara for letting us check in earlier than our check in time.

My family enjoyed the ocean views from this centrally located condo. We appreciated all the beach goodies: beach towels, chairs, umbrella and cooler. One day we headed north to Lahaina and the next to road to Hana. Being centrally located was wonderful. Kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. Heads up... the trade winds were consistently strong in Ma'Alaea (July). Didn't seem to bother most, but it's strong for hanging out at the nearest beach. The pool is protected. Barbara (property manager) went out of her way to make our stay enjoyable.

Barbara is a wonderful host. My wife and two teenagers loved this apartment equipped with air conditioners for warm afternoon and kept doors open for cool ocean breeze at night. We loved waking up to the ocean waves breaking off outside and looking at beautiful sunrise. Mount Haleakela was just across.
The apartment is short 15-20 minutes drive to the airport and between Kanaapali and Wailea beach. We enjoyed few home cooked meals in the fully equipped kitchen. After 6 night's stay at this place it was very hard for us to leave. Highly recommend and will come back soon.

Thanks Barbara
We had a great stay at your beautiful and fully equipped condo. Thank you also for the fresh pineapple, coffee and milk waiting for us in the fridge. We got in late so it was greatly appreciated to have some things for breakfast before we went out the next day. A wonderful and relaxing view from the Condo, watching the sunrise over Haleakala and the boats go out at 7:30 an added bonus. We did some snorkeling off the steps and saw turtles and a good range of fish. Thanks for having gear available for us to use. Thanks
