Everything about this condo and the rental process was perfect! We received several emails ahead of our check in with very helpful tips that made our check in incredibly smooth. The location was amazing - we sat out on the lanai every night to watch the sunset over the ocean. The views were better than we thought. We were so close to everything but it was wonderfully quiet and peaceful. The place was spotless. I'd stay here again in a second. In fact, we didn't want to leave! Thank you!

Beautiful condo with incredible ocean view. Enjoyed coffee in the morning on the lanai with view of the whales. Condo had everything needed, like a little home away from home. Short distance to shops, restaurants and larger resorts.

I’m so pleased with my stay here. It was fantastic. Perfect location, beautifully appointed, well maintained, perfection in all ways. I would definitely stay there again. Its perfect for a solo traveler, a couple, or a trio with the third person on the couch.

We were very impressed with this condo. It had nice furniture, great A/C, beautiful kitchen and the appliances, dishes and utensils were all top of the line. The lanai was our favorite as it had a beautiful view including sunsets and nice furniture. The owners also provide beach chairs, umbrella and cooler for the beach which we used a lot. They also had nice touches such as a bluetooth speaker, extra pillows, and a nice TV which was also great. Be sure to bring a pair of binoculars for whale watching. We will definitely book this again.

Not only is the place beautiful and the view amazing, we were super impressed with all of the little things available that you don't always get like beach chairs and umbrellas, ice chest, and a fully stocked kitchen. We really couldn't think of anything that could have been better!

This condo is beautifully maintained with a stunning ocean view from the deck and living room. The kitchen is modern and had every utensil, dish, etc. that one could possibly need. The grounds of the complex are impeccable and beautiful. If you don't need to be right on the beach, this would be my first choice. Vacation-Maui was also extremely well organized and responsive.

The condo was well equipped, perfectly maintained, very clean, quiet and comfortable. The pictures are very accurate and the furnishings are high quality. The lanai was equally great for having an early morning cup of coffee while watching the world wake up, and enjoying a glass of wine while watching the sunset at the end of the day. We were also treated to a spectacular view of the New Year's Eve fireworks put on by the Grand Wailea Hotel. Restaurants and shops were within walking distance and beaches were a short hike. The location is very convenient and parking was never a problem.

My wife and I had a wonderful stay! The unit had everything we needed for cooking and feeling right at home. There were beach chairs, umbrellas and towels all available for the short walk down to multiple beaches. Wailea shops are <5 mins away. It was very nice having multiple air conditioners (one in the bedroom, one in the living room) to keep the whole unit cool, personalized to preferred temperatures. The lanai has an incredible view of the ocean, Molokini crater and sunsets are exactly as seen in the pictures of the listing. Would certainly stay here again!

Property management was not being transferred till 28th, we checked out on 26th. The code to get into condo did not work on lockbox, took over 1/2 hour to get into Condo. Dish washer worked sometimes! They need to replace dishwasher! Everything else was wonderful and beautiful! Home is so stocked with all kitchen appliances/towels, etc… great! Condo decorated beautifully. Location was terrific! The bed was very comfortable also! Would highly recommend this location! Will probably come back next Christmas! Aloha

Beautifully appointed condo in one of the best areas on Maui. The views from the condo are spectacular. NIcely upgraded unit with everything you'll need for your stay. Close to beaches, shops and restaurants. Easy check in and check out. We hope to come back soon!

This is a wonderful place to stay in Wailea, fantastic location and great accommodations. Tons of space and beautiful balcony to watch the sunset. All the amenities you need. We would definitely stay here again!

Even though I read all the other reviews this condo was beyond expectations. Gorgeous ocean views. Perfect location with a 2 minute drive to beach parking, shops and restaurants! Very spacious with a large lanai, comfortable bed and updated kitchen with 2 full baths. We really appreciated the beach chairs, snorkel equipment and cooler. They went to good use. The owners were very responsive and appropriate when there was an internet issue. Wouldn't hesitate to come back!

Pictures did not due this condo justice. It’s wonderful. It’s not right on the beach but the location is perfect just up the hill from shopping and food. Wonderful lanai, afternoon shading, comfortable bed, wonderful kitchen for those who cook in. Can’t say enough about the condo. Host very prompt with communications. Looking forward to returning again. Our new favorite place away from home.

The condo was excellent, actually bigger than the listing made it look. We enjoyed the wells rocked kitchen, beach supplies and the in unit washer and dryer! The deck was excellent to do some morning yoga on and drink coffee. Communication was excellent as well as the key system!
The location was excellent for that side of the island.

We have visited Hawaii many times and this was hands down our favorite place to stay! Located in a quiet area with views of the Pacific Ocean, the Molikini Crater and the Kaho'olawe Island Reserve beyond, this is a perfect place to unwind. The grounds are covered with beautiful mature fragrant plumeria plants backdropped by palm trees giving the perfect island feel. The unit itself is very nicely decorated and is extremely comfortable. Everything here was thoughtfully done making our stay worry free and very relaxing. There is a large wooden box outside the front door loaded with all of your beach needs including beach mats, chairs, beach umbrellas, boogie boards and snorkeling gear. We visted the nearby pool when it was windy at the beach and found it very pleasant. This is a terrific and well cared for place to stay while visiting Maui and we will definately be back!

Loved all the amenities, except the nearest pool was under repair.
Gas barbecues were great. Scenic surroundings, great views,
and we loved the solitude of the place. Prefer Wailea over the
bustle of Kaanapali. Great beaches down here. The kitchen had
all the necessary tools.

We loved our stay here. The view was the best part. Had coffee and every meal sitting out on the balcony. Everything was perfect and we can't wait to come back. Thank you so much for letting us stay!

We had a wonderful week at this condo. It is beautiful, clean, comfortable, and it is in the best location of the Ekolu Village condos. We've stayed at many rentals, and this condo has the best-equipped kitchen we've ever seen. The view is amazing, but what we loved the most was the flowers and birds that surround the lanai. We're already looking forward to coming back next year.

We loved the condo! It was very clean, an attention to details that made the place very comfortable. It was very easy working with the owner - they are very organized which made the process very simple. The lanai (porch) is perfect to watch sunsets on the ocean. We found everything we needed to work the kitchen. The shower is very nice, and the location is closer to the beach then we thought it would be. It was our first time staying in Maui, and we didn't realize Wailea was as beautiful and quiet as it was. The resorts that are below the condo complex are very nice to walk through and dine at. The golf courses there are awesome. If we go back to Maui, we will look this property up again.

Such a beautiful condo! Love the decor! We were so very comfortable, just like home. The owners paid attention to every detail from the kitchen to the bedroom & bathrooms. Very clean. Everything was first class. Whatever we needed was included. Even binoculars for whale watching. The chest of beach and snorkel gear was very handy. The complex is very well kept, peaceful and quiet. The location is perfect, shops, market, restaurants and golf courses within a few blocks. We’ve rented from VRBO several times before and this has been our best experience ever! We will definitely be renting this condo again in the future! Highly recommend. Big thanks to the owners!

What a beautiful condo in an excellent location -- from the perfectly equipped kitchen to the gloriously comfortable bed -- we wanted for nothing during out stay. We love the beach, so really appreciated the excellent beach chairs, brolly, cooler/s, not to mention the snorkel gear and boogie board. And then, there is the view.... Sigh. Thank you, Linda, for the perfect introduction to Maui. We have visited Hawaii and Kauai many times, but this first visit to Maui was made very special thanks to your attention to detail, quick and efficient communication, and professional kindness. We will be back!

My husband and I stayed here in December and absolutely loved it! As mentioned in several reviews, everything was exactly as pictured and even better. The view was stunning, the location convenient and the condo was beautiful, comfortable and clean. We had everything we needed and more. The coffee and chocolates were a bonus!
We will definitely stay here again!
Mahalo Linda and Lou!

Except for no red laptop (shown in one of the photos), everything is exactly, if not better, as the photos that these generous owners show of their beautiful vacation home! The elegant tropical decor was not only gorgeous, it was wonderfully comfortable, as well! You will love it! Every amenity has been thought of - you basically only need your clothes and food, and of course some beverages to enjoy on that amazing lanai!
While there, try to take a day visiting in Upcountry, including the Alii Kula Lavender Farm and the Ocean Organic Vodka & Rum Distillery, and more. The condo has much more information available for wonderful Maui touring suggestions.
Linda & Lou rock!

We just can't say enough about the time we spent in this beautiful "Hawaiian Home". From the welcoming bag of coffee and box of chocolate covered macadamia nuts to the beautiful decorations and amenities, we felt as if we were staying in the most luxurious of accommodations. The owners definitely provide everything one would need to make a stay complete. The view of the ocean and wonderful sunsets were an added bonus. We love Wailea and the location of this condo really made it easy to get around either on foot or by car. The owners have definitely put a lot of thought and hard work (we loved what they did with the bathrooms and kitchen) into making this condo a wonderful place to spend time. We know we will return, again, in the future.

If you fret that the on-line pictures won't match the actual place, or that the previous reviews didn't really describe the condo accurately - worry no longer. This place is five star quality, and extremely well appointed. The furniture (indoor and out), bedding, bath linens, kitchen supplies, electronics, décor, views - you name it, all wonderful. You can tell this is an owner used condo because it really does have all the comforts of a beautiful home.
When my husband and I stayed it was so quiet and peaceful we wondered if any of the surrounding condo's were occupied! We could tell they were from the cars in the parking lot, and a few folks at the pool, but really a nice low key environment. However, close to all the amenities in Wailea and Kihea.
Linda's salutation on her email is accurate: Maui no ka oi! (Maui is the best)!

We chose this condo for our honeymoon because we didn't want to stay in a resort, and it looked great. We were definitely more than impressed...the pictures don't do it justice. Everything about our stay was wonderful, but our favourite part was lounging on the lanai and enjoying the spectacular view. It was so quiet and relaxing here, yet still close to everything. We will not hesitate to recommend this unit to family and friends, and hope to be back soon. Linda & Lou have definitely went above and beyond your typical rental.
Some activities we did that we would definitely recommend:
- Molokini Snorkel tour with Trilogy - they were fantastic!
- Haleakala sunrise tour with Maui Sunriders - Great experience. Enjoyed that the bike portion wasn't guided so we could go at our own pace, and it was more affordable than others!
- Road to Hana - go all the way!
- Monkeypod (within walking distance to condo) was an excellent spot for dinner
- Coconuts in Kihei had the BEST fish tacos!
- We really enjoyed the Luau at the Grand Wailea - again, walking distance. Buy your tickets at Costco...much cheaper.
Mahalo!

This was our 3rd visit to Wailea and 2nd to an Ekolu property. This property by far is our favorite condo. The description of this property was just as it looked like but the photos can't even capture how beautiful it really is! The property was very well maintained and cleaned to our expectations. When we were there they were putting a new cable system in so my husband got help from Linda right away so he could get the wifi back! My husband played a couple rounds of golf and loved the Blue course that we were on (only thing it is expensive!) We love Mulligans on the Blue and it is a short drive from the condo. Mostly we enjoy grilling out on the Lanai and watching the sunset with a glass of wine in Linda's lovely Tommy Bahama glasses! You won't be dissappointed with this condo.

This unit deserves 10 stars! From the time you walk to the front door by the tropical foliage and the moment you enter the unit you see how clean and well maintained the unit is you realize that you are in Hawaii. The attention to detail by the owners to provide supplies for their guests went beyond anything we would have expected for a vacation property. The lovely furnishings and panoramic views are exactly as pictured on the listing. We have been visiting Maui for 30 years and this is by far the nicest and most comfortable unit we have rented. The property exceeded all of our expectations. We highly recommend this unit for a wonderful vacation in Maui.

My wife and I stayed here for our honeymoon. The condo was immaculate and very nicely decorated. There is all the equipment you may need for beach trips (mats, umbrellas, body boards, chairs, etc...), a kitchen with great equipment/appliances, and washer/dryer. Our favourite part had to be the spectacular ocean views from the lanai. Don't waste your money on a resort with ocean views when you could be enjoying this spectacular view at a much cheaper price. Highly recommended! Thanks Linda!
