This is really nice location close to Kamaole I beach, shops. Place is nice and clean. Tricia was very responsive. We ask all question in the beginning and we did not have many questions during our stay as everything necessary we got on property.
We love the place. Thanks, Tricia.

It was a nice place close to my family. If you're not familiar with the area then it's a great location. It was clean and felt very homey.

We loved our stay at Tricia's condo. The location is fantastic with so many stores, restaurants, and beaches within walking distance. The condo had everything we needed including boogie boards and snorkeling gear.

The condo was clean and well kept with all the amenities for a beach vacation. It’s in an ideal location for quick access to the beach and shopping.
We would stay in this unit again!

This is a humble but cute little apartment with great location. The kitchen is well stocked, there's beach toys in the cabinet, and the dual AC is great. While I appreciate the great value, I do think the standard of care need to be increased.
I'm not the pickiest with how clean a space needs to be, but the rental was definitely not cleaned appropriately before our arrival. There was dirt, leaves, and dead bugs all over the floor throughout, and heavily accumulated behind the doors. The quilt and shams were noticeably dirty and hasn't been washed recently. The shower and adjacent cabinet had spiders, with lots of old dead bugs. The walls in the bedroom were dingy and grimy. The turnover clean needs to be improved and the full place needs a deep clean + repaint. We had to vacuum the entire place upon arrival and change the blanket on the bed. This is poor service, even for the low price, especially with the additional cleaning fee charged.
If you're looking for a cheap place to stay with a family, this could be a good fit. Especially if newer reviews show the cleaning has improved. But I have to warn for those with allergies: my sinuses acted up every time we came back to the apartment. Not sure if from mold, dust, bugs, or what. I was congested every night, which disappeared when we went outside. So someone with sensitive allergies should not stay here.

We had never stayed at a VRBO in Maui (our first visit actually) and it turned out to be the best spot. Loved the privacy of the end unit with garden area. And right across the street from a beautiful beach. Our host made sure we understood what was expected from us which made our stay even more delightful. Barb & Ira Goldstein

Words cannot convey how grateful we were to Tricia for accommodating our family last minute with the fires in Maui - something VRBO doesn't offer naturally - but she responded immediately to my desperate plea after our flights were cancelled.
Tricia was SO responsive and kind - checking in to ensure we were comfortable and had all that we need - and how she could help the people of Maui.
We walked all around Kihei - everything was convenient and accessible - beaches, restaurants, coffee shops and markets.
Thank you Chiariello Family!

Nice place to stay. Convenient 5 minute walk to the beach. Just one negative is the bathroom. The shower is pretty small and we’re not big people; possibly needs updating. Being in the 2nd building, the location is pretty quiet. The geckos were pretty loud though.

The unit smelled strongly of bleach/cleanser when we arrived, but when we went to bed, found that the light comforters smelled of body odors. We took them both to a nearby laundromat to wash and dry them; this cost was over $15 but it was worth it to us since we were there for a week. When using the sofa bed, we found it was filthy underneath when one of the cushions fell into it and onto the floor; big dust bunnies, mud and dirt. Under the bed was also dirty, so we made sure not to drop anything.
The owner was aware that the miniblinds were broken and couldn't be lowered for privacy (the gardener startled us twice when he showed up on the lanai) but she didn't warn us until I contacted her about the dirty bedding and blinds. Although she apologized she did nothing to compensate for our efforts to clean our own bedding.
The kitchen had most necessities, but the air conditioners are old and inefficient. I cannot recommend this place despite the location close to the beach (5 minute walk).

We really liked the comfort and location of this unit. It was truly a home away from home. Every need that we had during our stay was provided for, from a kitchen with stove, fridge, microwave, cookware and dinnerware to a washer and dryer, comfortable bed and beach amenities. Access to the unit was the closest to the parking lot and although the hallway entrance is shared with another unit it was very private and secure. A short walk or drive from the unit gave us access to the beach, shops, grocery stores and restaurants.

This apartment is located in a central spot. You can walk to various beaches, shops, etc. There's plenty of parking (just be sure to get your parking permit from the main office). There's a food truck park just 2 blocks north, with lots of options. The location has it all!
The apartment comes with pool toys, beach accessories, etc. which are located in the closet on the left (just as you enter). We did not see that, and ended up renting an umbrella, etc. even though Tricia provides everything! Oh well, I guess we should've checked!
The only gripe I had was with the sofa bed. It has seen better days, and the bed was too soft and lumpy. Other than that, it was a great vacation! Thank you, Tricia!

This is a nice spot with a great location in Kihei. It's very easily accessible and doesn't suffer from a lot of the traffic issues in other areas of the town and island. Tricia was very responsive and a pleasure to talk to. We had a late-night arrival, and check-in was still a breeze.
Highly recommended!

We have stayed at the Maui Vista in other units before and love it for the location and amenities. This unit was probably our favorite so far as it is was very private and still close to the pool and a shorter walk to the beach than building 3. Thanks so much for the wonderful stay.

Decent little property, it was clean aside from the tiny kitchen ants who shared the countertops with us. Great location across from a really nice beach and within walking distance to restaurants and shopping area. The only issue we had was the hide-a-bed, which was extremely uncomfortable, not even good for a kid to sleep on. It was also very hard to put back together, it took 2 of us to push it in. A bit of a musty smell due to water damage on the hardwood floor and the bedroom is located right beside the parking area, which means you hear car doors slamming. Otherwise a good choice. Beach gear is there for your use including masks and snorkels as well as other necessities (there was no wine bottle opener, but we purchased one and left it there). We didn't need to turn on the A/C at all thanks to the overhead fans. One more thing to note, if you happen to be quite large, you might not fit in the small shower.

place was in a corner of the complex. a/c in sufficient, couldn't turn fans off, spend the little extra money and get a good unit at a different property. I would recommend Kamaole or hale Kamaole properties. i didn't do those because they were about 3-4 more for the entire stay, but believe me, it would have been worth it. No jacuzzi at this property, the three pools were dirty, I didn't even go in them b/c of that.

My husband, my three month old baby, and I stayed here for a week and it was amazing! It was in the perfect location due to being central to so many things like Lahaina on the west and Hana on the east! Thetr is also great beaches and stores and things to do in Kihei as well! I loved the Lanai (patio) and we sat out there every morning with our coffee as the sun came up! The pool is basically right behind this specific apartment as well! This specific apartment is in a good quiet location too. There are several beaches across the street which we loved! Tricia was very good at communication and replied back immediately about everything. The check in process was super smooth and easy. It couldn’t have been better! We will definitely be back and we are so grateful for this vacation! We don’t want to leave!

This unit is old and out of date. There are bugs everywhere. Ants, lizards, and centipede are what I had to get rid of. The pillows are wore out along with the bedding. The towels are paper thin and small. Two small air conditioning units in the condo that don’t keep the unit cool especially on a 90 degree day and your using the dryer. Plus if you plan on cooking, there is no ventilation around the cook top.
The complex’s pool is small and not kid friendly. Only updated items in the unit are the tv and washer/dryer.
The owner states it’s near Sugar Beach. It’s not anywhere close to it. It’s near Charles Young Park, Kam 1 beach.
I wouldn’t recommend this unit to anyone.

The property is in a great location. The beach is right across the street. There were plenty of food options on the strip. The hotel room is a little outdated. The mattress looks yucky and needs to be replaced. Oddly enough the mattress was very comfortable. The location is 2 hours to Hana, 1 hour to the National Park, and down the street from 76 gas station which has the cheapest gas prices around. I would definitely stay again. The area was quiet, safe, and having the beach across the street is a plus. Remember to put your car parking pass in your window because you will get cited if you don’t.

This first floor end unit condo is great! Loved spending time out on the lanai; peaceful and private! The location right across from Charley Young beach is perfect - we appreciated the beach chairs and umbrella provided by the owner. Beach toys, etc are also there if that's your thing. Did not lack for anything in the well-furnished kitchen for making meals. Gas grills are provided in the complex, owner provides grilling utensils. Will definitely stay here again!

Very nice cozy lil condo. Celebrated a birthday, anniversary and finding out we are expecting! Condo was very clean and nicely stocked. Management was very nice, there was a lot of construction going on but it didn’t affect us much. There was a good handful of ants around daily, but nothing major and pretty typical for tropical settings. We loved how easy it was to get to the beach. No traveling in wet swim clothes or struggle to park! We rented bicycles and went to the grocery store, shops, even Kaiser clinic about 20 mins away. Well maintained property and felt safe the whole time. Thanks again! Hope to come stay again soon, when we have a new baby to play in the sand with.

She has an umbrella, beach chairs, snorkel mask and fins, boogie boards, a small ice chest. We used them all. So great. Saved a ton of money eating at the Condo . Waves were great for 9 yo and the snorkeling at Charlie Young beach was fantastic. Swam with sea turtles! Thank you!

Location is in good location for Kihei. Condo has beach equipment you can use, which was a big bonus. Host was very responsive and a nice to talk to. Price was comparable to other similar condos in the area. I would recommend staying here.
I gave a low rating for cleanliness because the cleaning was clearly rushed. This place was tidy but the floors and bathroom wasn't mopped (clearly). But this was due to some misunderstanding on check in time with cleaner. After talking to owners, there was some miss communication with cleaner. So my cleanliness rating (and overall rating) is based on how I got the place but probably not the norm for this host, so others should really ignore it :).

If you're looking for value for your dollar, this is the condo for you. The photos and description given by Tricia are accurate. This clean condo is very conveniently located in terms of access to the pool, the on-site barbecues, the tennis court, the path to the beach, shops, Foodland and restaurants. The bed is comfortable, the kitchen well-stocked with a full sized fridge, cookware, dishes, and utensils, and the combination of louvered windows and the two ceiling fans makes using the air conditioner unnecessary. Also, there are plenty of useful items for the beach: towels, beach chairs, mats, boogie boards, snorkel equipment, water noodles, and a small picnic cooler. There are also tennis rackets. Being in the corner unit is great since nobody needs to walk past your lanai – it’s very private. Tricia was always quick to get back to us via email whenever we had questions, both before and during our stay.
August 2011
Our family of 2 adults and 2 children (boys aged 5 and 8 years) really enjoyed our stay. The condo was roomier than a hotel room because of the living room so the adults had space and the kids too. We really loved being on the ground floor - excellent proximity to the car and to the building's pool. The patio was enjoyable, along with the lush grass and greenery. When we stayed, my brother's family rented a condo in Maui Vista but they were on the 4th floor of Building 3. It had a lovely view of the ocean and mountains but it was EXTREMELY hot. Our ground floor condo was so comfortable and I really enjoyed the Tradewinds that blew through.
The best beach in Kihei is right across the street from Maui Vista. It's an easy 2 minute walk. The beach was beautifully set - better than the famed Makena in my opinion.

We stayed in this condo during our honeymoon at Maui. It had everything we needed for the stay. The condo also had a great patio for enjoying our breakfast and a short distance to the beach. Really short. And with the equipment that was availeble for us in the condo we could also go snorkeling or play tennis.
May 2011
As parents of 5 we don't have much opportunity to vacation...without the kids...actually never have. We were nervous from the start...we wanted this to be perfect...and it was! We had the best time ever in Maui this year. From the beginning of the planning to the end everything was perfect. We rented a beautiful, convenient, reasonably priced condo from Tricia Chiariello, in Kihei directly across from Charley Young Beach via www.gonetomaui.com. Tricia made everything so simple from the start. We had everything we needed in the condo, cooking utensils, beach gear, linens, she even provided suntan lotion and shampoo! We were especially thrilled with the convenience of being able to walk across the street and see the sunset everynight, beachside - we didn't miss one! It was fabulous and we will no doubt go back to Maui again. I will definetly contact Tricia first!
May 2011
Great first floor location. Centrally located.

The Kihei small boat dock is 3 minutes away so for those early morning boat dives (5:45am!) this is a definite plus. The back porch has a hose to rise off your equipment plus the unit has a washer/dryer. Two boogie boards, beach chairs/umbrella, bamboo mats, cooler, and snorkle equipment were provided for days on the beach. One beach park is pretty much across the street and two more are very close by. Shops and restaurants are close by and it's easy access to the highway.

Stayed in this condo Mar 2011 and found the location great. Fantastic beach, across the street minutes away. They have everything you need for the beach..chairs, umbrellas, small cooler, snorkel gear, boogie boards, etc.
The property was very clean and cool inside with just the overhead fans on and the screened windows open.
You could walk to groceries, bars, stores and restaurants. Overall a perfect location and will look forward to renting this unit again on our next visit to Maui. Tricia and Ralph were very easy to deal with and answered any questions we had. Also provided some useful information on some places to see and things to do.
March 2010
Hi Tricia,
I had a great time in Maui and your condo was excellent, clean, comfortable and very quiet. The other thing was that it was close to all the malls. We did not get to use the pool but we walked around the grounds and saw that everything was very clean and the people were very friendly. If I should every go back to Maui I would definitely give you a call to use your condo again.
Thanks

We stayed at Maui Vista 2112 from 3/3 to 3/11 2010 and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Tricia and her husband are very responsive and we chose them because they were the first to respond to our request for condo info on 7/4/2009. Their condo is a wonderfully decorated one bedroom close to everything. The pool is just steps away and the beach is right across the street, Charlie Young. There is great snorkeling available on the reef just to the right of Charley Young beach. We also found that all major attractions are either in Kihei or 30 minutes away in Kahului or Lahaini. You can walk to the coffee house in the morning, work out at Valley Isle Fitness, or shop at the local market. Kihei is family oriented and not overly commercial. We would recommend stopping at either Kmart or Wal-Mart to purchase your non-perishables and frozen foods. The grocery stores on Maui are pricy since everything is imported. Safeway and Foodland have weekly specials and also offer discount cards, just ask at the customer service desk. We also found the Ono fish one of the best on the island and Paia Fish Market is an inexpensive (2 adults for under $30) local fish house that offers a local flair, great food, without all the amenities. If you want ambience, go to Mama's Fish House, also in Paia, but expect to spend well over $100 for 2 adults for dinner. The Feast at Lele is a Polynesian Luau that offers 4 courses of different cuisines accompanied by the authentic dance from each island (Hawaii, Tahiti, New Zealand, and Samoa).The Blue Water Rafting is the best way to see the whales, turtles, dolphins and go snorkeling. The 5 hour excursion takes you to KANAIO/ MOLOKINI to see the volcano caves and the best snorkeling in crystal blue waters. Maui Vista is close to all these wonderful attractions and you will love your stay in condo 2112 on the 1st floor! No stairs! No elevators! You are just steps away from EVERYTHING!

My wife and I stayed in Maui Vista June 18-25 2008. Maui Vista is a natural for us as my folks used to own the same condo we rented and my brother lives next door. Ralph and Tricia were a treat to work with and nothing was overlooked. The condo was clean and complete with all amenities needed for a great stay. The location is perfect for us; with pool, tennis courts, and barbeque just a few steps away. All the people were wonderful and we look forward to our next stay.
March 2010
This unit is very well equiped, clean, and located in a private and quite location in Building 2. Great place for a relaxing stay burt within walking distance of all the action. The owners are very accomodating and they make the rental process very easy and quick without hassles. It's the place to stay for a great rate.
March 2010
We stayed at 2112 Maui Vista February 14th to March 7th, 2009. The suite was great. We had stayed at Maui Vista in a different suite in 2008 and thought we would try this one. We were very happy with 2112. It's location is very good being on the ground floor and at the end of the building. The end that it is at provides extra privacy. Being on the ground floor means a larger lanai, this came in handy when we had relatives over for supper. The toys and beach chairs were very useful for trips to the beach. Charley Young Beach is just a short walk away and we spent most days there. We did day trips to Big Beach and Makena Beach. The food prices at Costco are quite good (a bit of a drive). Remember to get a Makai discount card for Foodland (a short walk away). The sunrise over Haleakala is worth the early morning drive, it can be quite cool at 11,000 feet before sunrise so go prepared (from a Canadian). It was a great vacation, hope to be back in 2011. Thank you for a wonderful condo.
March 2010
We stayed in late May 2009. It was quite and right across from the beach. It was just far enough south that the waters were not impacted by the surgar plantations and we were centrally located to everything in Maui. We would either stay in close or we could drive to one end or the other. Location was great. It had beach supplies (chairs, snorkel gear, mats, boogie board) so take a look before you run off and buy stuff you don't need to. Overall a great mid range condo and excellent value.
