This was our second stay in this condo. Beautiful oceanfront view. The condo is very clean and well equipped. The bed was very comfortable. Will definitely return to this condo for a wonderful vacation.

Is there a perfect Maui condo? I think so because I found it. Wonderful in every way.

Usually I will just leave a rating and not elaborate with a writeup. But this was different and deserves a full review.
As it turns out I've had to shorten this as there is a space limit.
I travelled with my 14 y/o daughter.
Joe & Roopa do/did everything to make your trip the best it can be. Answering Qs before you book and during your trip to make you as comfortable as can be. This was a constant and made the trip perfect.
The kitchen had everything I could have needed to cook/ prepare/present/clean with. It was great not having to eat out and was a nice break even fo my teen. It was amongst our favorite times. 2 nice big shared BBQs on site. W/D w/ digital payment on main level. Used 3X and was perfect for us. Pool.
The unit is in a perfect location for those wanting something quiet RIGHT on the beach. Perfect sunsets. Gets windy sometimes in the PM so the sunsets are just as perfect from the terrific lanai. So are the breakfasts btw.
Comfortable sofa & bed. Clean. Fresh & modern. AC in living room by sofa/bed, large ceiling fan in bedroom at the front of the unit. Even with the door closed sleeping in the bedroom was very comfortable.
The unit comes with 4 beach chairs, umbrella, beach mats, lots of beach towels, snorkelling gear, beach toys, cloth beach/grocery bags. Bushnell binoculars to see the turtles and or whales, eagle rays (depending on the season).
I ran out of space anyway..our experience could not have been better. I would go back anytime.
Thanks R&J!!

This was the perfect home base for our Maui adventure. The condo had absolutely everything we needed and the view was outstanding. The location was perfect for our daily activities all around the island. I cannot recommend this property enough!

A condo on the third floor. Has everything you may need for your stay. Plus walking distance to many of the great restaurants & markets there. We loved it there at this condo. But the view was breathtaking & the beach was just enough. Haha I can hardly wait to come back for my next stay. Love it.

We found this place to be clean and the location was great. The 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms were also a big deal for us (kids could have their own room/bathroom). The pool is right off the lanai so it was very convenient for the kids to use and it was not too busy during our stay. The beach was nice and we saw some turtles in the water just off of the beach a little to the North. The sunsets are amazing and people gather at the beach to watch it.
Access was great - you can go out Lipoa St to a light to turn left (north) onto Kihei Rd if needed or just a few blocks south to a lot of other restaurants, shopping, and beaches. It is also walking distance to a grocery store for supplies and Nalu's, which is a great breakfast/lunch/dinner restaurant (tip - find the rear access to the Azeka strip mall and you can walk right to Nalu's in about 2 minutes).
There is also a cooler and some water toys in the 2nd bedroom closet (we left some water noodles, masks, and snorkels that we could not fit into our luggage).
You may see some homeless people periodically near this complex, but I think that may happen anywhere in Kihei. It was not a big deal. (Not bashing Kihei - this was our 2nd time to Kihei and we love it and will return again.)
Overall, my entire family loved the place. If you are thinking about booking this place based on the cleanliness, location, and many nearby restaurants and activities, you will not be disappointed.

This Condo was surprisingly available at the last minute. We were so lucky to have such a place for our family. (This is a perfect place for a family of 3.) It is right on the beach and the swimming pool was just steps from our door. The location is good with Safeway, the ABC Store, and our new favorite place to eat "Cool Cats" (kind of like a 50s diner that has almost everything anyone can eat) all within a mile. The condo itself is very clean and a great air conditioning system in the living room and bedroom. As far as things to take to the beach there were plenty! Beach chairs, snorkel gear, umbrella, Coolers, and more. Thank you so much Joe for being a great host and Easy to communicate with. This is a perfect place for a family of 3.

During our nine night stay, the view from the living room of the palms swaying and the ocean was mesmerizing. Beautifully decorated with comfortable bed. The property was quiet. Easy parking. Wi-fi speed was super fast for some "work" things we had to do while there. The unit had a clothes steamer to use for our wedding attire in the bathroom closet. The beach chairs located on the patio were great for beach days. Would stay at Joe's place again in a heartbeat! Loved it.

This was a super clean, equipped and conveniently located unit. Walk to shops, restaurant, coffee. Decorations met my wife's picky expectations. Air-conditioning works great when needed. Was perfect for the 2 days we needed.

Condo was incredibly well equipped-I would have to think hard to come up with something I needed that was not there. Condo clean and updated. Staff onsite to assist with any issues- we had none. Lovely view and seemingly private beach access. Water shallow and rocky there, but turtles came onto beach nightly. Sunsets beautiful. Centrally located to do anything on the island. Neighborhood a little sketch around the corner, but not enough to be concerned. Would certainly recommend this condo!

We had an amazing stay at this beautifully updated condo. It was just as advertised and more. There were chocolate chip cookies when we arrived and the bathroom had an assortment of sunscreen, insect repellent, and a first aid kit. We enjoyed having the beach access right in front and the pool, plus the view of the ocean and the relaxing sound of the waves everyday. We highly recommend staying here if you’re planning a vacation in Maui!

We loved this condo. It was perfect for our family of four. The proximity to the beach is unbeatable. There are plenty of stores and restaurants within walking distance. The condo itself is clean and comfortable, and the kitchen was well equipped. We would gladly stay again on our next trip to Maui.

Hale Kai o'Kihei's location, in our opinion, cannot be beat!
And Roopa and Joe have decorated and supplied their condo beautifully. We do almost all of our own meal prep, and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to fix our meals to enjoy on the lanai, which has such a gorgeous, uninterupted view of Molokini, Kahoolawe, Lanai, and Maui.
Another bonus: Roopa was very prompt and thorough about answering any questions we had.
We look forward to returning and staying longer next time!

We had a great week long stay. This condo met all our family needs and the location can’t be beat for all the island exploring we did. The condo and property amenities were everything we needed to enjoy our stay and make great memories. Thank you!

We were so impressed as soon as we stepped into this property! An amazing view of the ocean, and the perfect spot in Kihei! We spent many mornings on the lanai drinking our coffee and seeing the turtles go back to their ocean homes. We were able to get around the island to Black Rock Beach for cliff jumping and snorkeling, the Road to Hana, visiting many local beaches and loved the luau at Gilligans (just 5 minutes away!) Thank you for making our 20th wedding anniversary trip one to remember!

The residence is as listed. Contact is with the management company, not owner. The one negative, are a local population of about 5 homeless, who have a semi-permanent hangout on the actual property grounds, just to the condo building adjacent. We had a ground floor, and daily several homeless persons would either use the grounds sprinkler in front of our room, or end up cutting through the condo's insecure entrances to the beach access. This was fine, except there was one member who had significant mental illness that would walk immediately in front of our condo at breakfast time, often swinging a stick etc. The other was another who would get up, and relieve themselves in the bushes where there are obviously children in the pool. I will send the condo management a recommendation email, but it is obviously not monitored by them. Just keep this in mind, that there are no efforts currently to deal with this as their security is a single person who is not discouraging either the permanent presence, or behaviors as mentioned above. Other than this, everything was great in terms of the actual condo. It is very quiet at night, and for the money paid, the location can not be beat.

The setting was awesome. Condo was complete with well stocked kitchen. It is getting a bit run down and could use some fresh paint. Floors needed to be mopped. If walking barefoot, feet got pretty dirty. Really appreciated all the ice and ice trays provided.

We loved our time in Maui. The condo was well equipped with an amazing view. We appreciated the beach chairs and towels. The kitchen was well stocked but dated - the cabinets weren’t in the best shape and there is no dishwasher - not a reason to not book, just an FYI to set expectations. We had a fabulous couple of days, wish we could have stayed longer. We would definitely stay here again.

Loved our stay! The property, location and environment was more than we could have asked for. It was a dream environment, a bit windy in the afternoon which I wasn’t prepared for but we quickly adjusted to be on the beach at the best times! Local community, food/restaurants were easy to walk to, overall great experience. Accommodations were 100+ everything as indicated on the listing. We would absolutely return to this site in the future. Thank you!

We absolutely enjoyed our stay at this beautiful, modern condo! Perched perfectly on the second floor, it offered just the right height for stunning views of the beach, sunrise, and sunset. Nestled in the heart of Kihei, everything we needed was conveniently close by. The beach right behind the condo was gorgeous and perfect for swimming, adding to the overall charm. Joe was fantastic, going above and beyond to help us check in a bit earlier than usual. We can’t wait to stay here again!

The location is perfect. Close to so many restaurants and grocery stores and close to all exploring on the island. The condo is spacious. The view is wonderful. It was like our own private place. Beach and pool empty or not crowded. Will definately stay here again if we are lucky e ugh to come back.

Being ignorant of Maui, I chose this town the way it's between the airport, Wailea-Makena, and Kaanapali. The street on which the condo sits is fine, but the perpendicular on one the east side is a homeless thoroughfare from the grocery store around the corner and beyond, on down to the beach.
The view from the unit is lovely but inside some things are updated while others need updating. Despite not using, the kitchen, it was well-stocked. Downsides - the a/c unit is oceanside and inefficient and insufficient. It is a long way from the bedroom so could hardly sleep the first night due to the bedroom being really warm because the a/c didn't cool it.. By the second night it was bearable.
I awoke really early the second morning and went for a run on the beach, only to be accosted by a homeless man that was probably on crack as he acted like he owned the beach and punched me in the head, knocking me down into the water. Thus, I couldn't ever stay there again.
Kihei has a major homeless problem...

Customer service is top notch. Super friendly and kind. The condo is as advertised. Very dated but the location, view, and distance to the water is unbeatable. The beach was almost private and there were so many sea turtles and ocean life to view. We literally swam with turtles. The neighborhood was great too. The grounds are well kept and they have security that patrols the grounds and keeps the peace. It is quiet and really gives that peaceful vibe. I would 100% stay here again. But it is very dated and a bathtub replacement is needed but everything worked and the water pressure was strong.

Everything about our stay was perfect. The unit itself was clean, comfortable, well stocked with everything we could possibly want. Location was amazing. Loved the back lawn and the few feet to the fabulous beach. Joe was a perfect host, easy communication and great help.

This condo is directly on the beach in Kihei, 50 feet foot walk to the water and a view from the patio that can’t be matched in all of Maui. This place is perfect condo for couples, comfortable bed, and easy parking. Right next to times super market for groceries and centrally located in Kihei to get to all of Maui. Extremely clean and well maintained, just be aware we lost power twice for an extended periods of time and were without AC, this is common in Kihei. Would recommend this to any couples visiting Maui.

We arrived to a nice clean and comfortable place to stay. Immediately had a beautiful sunset to view from the balcony every night we were there. The beach gear was great and the location could not be beat.
Also had a last minute change of plans that were accommodated and greatly appreciated. Great trip and a great place to stay.
