This unit is beautiful! Clean, fresh & views you cannot beat! With the two lanai’s you can see nothing but palm trees and blue water! The location is great! Restaurants and shops within a short walk! Beaches close by as well if you haven’t rented a car. The condo is very well stocked and has extras such as beach towels and chairs. My husband and I celebrated our anniversary here and had an amazing week. The main floor (shops/businesses) is under construction but the progress we saw in our week already looks great! Didn’t disrupt anything for us. Ample parking in the back lot. Felt safe here. We hope to stay again very soon! Mahalo to the owners! Highly recommend!!

The place has everything you need, the views are stunning too. The host may just be the best on VRBO. We could not have asked for a better stay in any way. Great amenities, wonderful communication, fantastic location. Thank you, and we hope to stay with you again soon.

WOW! We just came back from our first time on Maui (and first VRBO booking) and we could not be happier with our experience with Pam and Doug's beautiful property. Pam checked in with us a few times to make sure we were enjoying our stay. The unit itself is filled with amenities (laundry detergent, so many different kitchen utensils, seasonings, beach chairs, boogie boards, etc) that we didn't even expect. It was SO nice having AC and a washer/dryer. The lanai was so wonderful to sit at and look at the ocean. There is a pretty busy street between the building and the ocean, but the noise didn't really bother us. There was some construction going on in the apartment building on the first floor, but nothing that really deterred from our experience. I think the most impressive part of this booking is the location. It is right in the middle of Kihei, walkable to so many different restaurants and a grocery store, with a food truck park in the LITERAL backyard. I would 100% stay here again, and would highly recommend. I was skeptical of the perfect rating, but after our stay I agree. Thank you Pam and Doug!

Our stay at Maui Ocean View in Kihei was awesome! The check in process was a breeze. The place had a gorgeous ocean view and was conveniently located. We were close enough to Kihei to walk downtown and enjoy the restaurants and shopping. The place was spotless and the extra beach supplies are a nice bonus. If you stay, make sure you walk across the street to watch the sunset and see the turtles. We would stay here again!

Matt has a wonderful condo and he is highly communicative before and during our stay! The king bed is soooooo comfy! AC works great and the ocean breeze made it like we didn’t even need it.

Wonderful property with amazing views. Very clean and excellent communication. My husband and I love Kehei because it isnt full of resorts. This property is in a great location and we will definitely try to stay again.

Mike provides everything you could possibly need and is easy to reach. This Kihei condo is your home away from home and is conveniently located right next to South Maui Gardens!

We had a great stay in Matt and Colleen's condo. The Condo is spacious with beautiful views of the ocean from the many large windows. The condo is well kitted out and has all you need for a beach vacation. The bed is very comfortable and we were able to catch up on sleep in the week. We had coffee on the mani each morning but it's a short walk to many coffee shops and restaurants. Communication with Matt was stellar. Would highly recommend if you are thinking of staying in Kihei.

Me and my partner really enjoyed our stay at this property. This was a great alternative to staying at a hotel/resort. The condo featured great amenities which made it very easy to cook, clean, and enjoy our time. They provided us with all the necessary cooking supplies (pots, pans, coffee maker, etc.) The host also had many staple ingredients that complimented any shopping that we did (spices, cooking oil, condiments, etc).Additionally, the apartment was located in the heart of Kihei. It was across the street from a public beach and park. Close to some great restaurants and shopping options. All around would book again!

This property is as pictured. The condo is clean and location is perfect. It’s close (walking distance) to the beach, grocery store, and restaurants, coffee shops. There’s a surfing lesson place and lots of food trucks nearby. It was perfect for a family of 4. I would definitely rent from Linda again.

I enjoyed my stay at the condo. Everything was so clean and very much like home. The view of the beach was so beautiful. Everyone was so friendly. I will definitely be back.

August 2024

We enjoyed everything about our stay, the place was very inviting, and Patty was a wonderful host. There’s nothing better than enjoying a cup of coffee on the lanai while watching the morning surfers. With the beach park across the street, food truck park and gardens around the corner, grocery store and restaurants nearby, not to mention several beaches down the street, this is a perfect location for a relaxing vacation.

I loved my stay here. It's across the street from a beautiful park, and I loved watching the sunsets from the balcony. Thank you.

August 2024

First time visiting Hawaii and was not disappointed with the location. There's a lot of construction going on but ease to beach locations was perfect. I will say that I had to wash all silverware, a few of the dishes and the frying pans prior to use. Also, need to take care of the curtains in the bedroom as the hall lights basically keep the bedroom bright throughout the night. Nothing that will keep us from returning.

Right in the heart of Kihei food a fun district. Next to a large park and of course the ocean.

Mike’s place was absolutely wonderful and perfect for us. Mike reached out to ensure all was well and offered help if anything was needed. View is fantastic! Instructions were clear and simple. Everything was tidy and worked well. Very well situated and comfortable. We miss being out on the balcony with a coffee watching the ocean. Just gorgeous! What a glorious view from the 6th floor! We watched the surf shop across from us open up everyday which inspired us to take lessons! Never would have done so otherwise (we got up too! Go for 7:30 as its quietest then). Surprising how comfortable it is with cross breeze from patio to front door. Well stocked for our stay with absolutely everything we needed. We would not hesitate to book with him again. Beds were so comfortable it felt like being in my own bed! Bathrooms are very nicely finished. Kitchen was well stocked with everything we could ever need. Thank you Maui Mike! We will continue to dream about being back in Kihei!

A wonderful condo with 2 lanais, each having tables and chairs overlooking a park and a beach with many beginning surfers practicing their skills. Coffee every morning watching volleyball games in the park from either lanai. Large free parking lot in the back…very convenient. A fully equipped condo with all the comforts of home including beach chairs, ice chests, masks and snorkels and lovely large towels for the beach. A kitchen completely stocked with all the appliances and gadgets for a great vacation. Comfortable king size bed with high quality linens. Many, I mean MANY, restaurants within walking distance with food from around the world and shops for all your needs. This was, by far, our best VRBO experience!

Location is just the best, walkable to most of the best food places, parks and beaches! Nicely updated, for the most part had all the basics. The bed is average and furniture is also average. If you are looking for a great location and somewhat up to date condo with all the basics covered, this is the one!
Vidya A.
July 2024

We had a great stay in Maui! The rooms, bathrooms, and kitchen were clean. The beds were comfortable. The only problem is the A/C in the living room wasn’t working the entire stay. They tried to get it fixed but the part they needed had to be ordered. She did give us a partial refund for the inconvenience which we appreciate. The location is perfect. Thank you for helping us bring family together.
Genevieve T.
July 2024

What did we enjoy most: the incredible ocean view, the easy walking distance to great restaurants, easily accessible and stunning local beaches, the comfortable beds and spacious, airy main area, the lanai overlooking the water, the surf lessons and snorkel gear literally right here, or the absolute charm of the lively but respectfully quiet at night neighborhood? Hard to say. I wouldn’t stay anywhere else on Maui. What a find! My family was so rested and happy the whole trip. The host is very kind and communicative as well. A memorable vacation thanks, in part, to the location, cleanliness, and quiet of this lovely condo.

This property is undergoing MAJOR structural repairs. Despite their best efforts, we awoke most days at 8-8:30am to extreme concrete grinding, jackhammers, pounding etc. We avoided the pool due to this as well. The entire bottom level is a fenced off construction area. The building should be closed while major work takes place. Not at all what my family expected for a calm Maui vacation.
Dana H.
July 2024

The condo was perfect for us. It was in a great location. You can walk across the street to the beach, there is the food truck court and great coffee around the corner, and close to a grocery store. It was very clean and quiet. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and appliances. The host provided clear instructions for everything we needed.

It was economical, great location and pretty cute!! I thought it was a nice touch, two chilled beers in the mini fridge with cold glasses even. We actually thought it was well appointed and probably would stay again. However, I was disappointed that when I let them know there were long black hairs more than 10 on the bathroom floor not because I wanted anything compensated but because I wanted to bring it to their attention for something to pay attention to, I heard nothing, not a word, not even an “ I m sorry we missed that” Yet they texted back about another matter, I was wondering about parking. Anyway, overall it was good for the price!! I would recommend

We were thrilled with the accommodations!! Our host was super responsive and went above and beyond to help us enjoy our stay! Bedroom and bathrooms were so nicely furnished and the kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed for our 6 night stay! We loved the breathtaking views and our stay here during our Maui vacation!

Anything you could need they have provided! I couldn’t say how impress with the view and the way they were available to help if I needed anything! The location was great! I was very impressed with my stay here and would recommend it to everyone! Very close to some very good restaurants and shopping!

July 2024

This condo exceeded our expectations. It was perfect for our family of 4. We loved waking up early and watching the surfers and paddle boards from the lanai. We enjoyed the ocean breezes that kept the condo cool and comfortable. (There is air conditioning but we found the open air breezes to be more enjoyable). The location was ideal. We walked to restaurants and the beach even though they are a short few minute drive. We absolutely loved going to South Maui Gardens right behind us in the evening for entertainment and food trucks. The host Patty was responsive and super accommodating! We could not recommend this condo enough!

We stayed at Matt and Colleen's condo last week. I can't say enough about the exceptional location. So much to do within walking distance. If you are a golfer, there is a very nice reasonably priced course within a 5-10 minute drive from the condo. Parking is in the back of the building so no worries trying to find street parking as you come and go from exploring the island. There is also a very cool food truck park behind the building with almost every type of food available. With regards to the actual unit, the king size bed has the most wonderfully comfortable mattress I've ever slept on. (no exaggeration!). There are a variety of masks, fins and snorkels...beach chairs...boogie boards and more. The Lanai has full water views and the location allows for great people watching from above :-) Surf lessons are taught via the surf shop next door and provide some interesting entertainment while having your morning coffee on the Lanai. Can't say enough about good things about this exceptional home away from home. We hope to return. A big thank you to Matt and Colleen.

The condo is well located in the midst of several beaches and neighborhood restaurants and bars. Most places were within walking range - in fact we didn’t even rent a car. The. Building was under construction on the ground floor, but that did not impact our stay at all.

Sitting on the lanai sipping coffee and enjoying the ocean. What a way to wake up in the morning! The condo was very well stocked (better than our home), Pam and Doug have thought of everything. Just add your food. Very clean and ready for you to enjoy your stay…we sure did. Pam informed us about the South Maui Gardens behind the building, lots of food trucks and fun. Centrally located so you can walk to the beach, restaurants & shopping. Pam quickly communicated with us when we had questions. She also checked in on us to make sure our stay was going well. If you are in Kihei and this place is available, get it. You will love it! Thanks again to Pam and Doug for accepting our reservations. Mahalo

This was my second stay in 603, and everything was still top of the line. The location's convenience has been enhanced by the addition of the adjacent Suth Maui Gardens food trucks and entertainment. The cleanliness and amenities are still unsurpassed. And, best of all, owner Pam continues to demonstrate unflagging concern and care for her guests.
Janet M.
June 2024

We enjoyed our time in Maui. The walkability to dining and restaurants was great. The food trucks were great. The condo was comfortable but unfortunately there was constant construction going on the whole time which limited my childs ability to rest. I know this isnt in the owners control but I do wish this would have been socialized with us ahead of time as its not really conducive to a nap schedule. The pool wasnt ideal (and we didnt want to use it with all the construction noise anyway) and while you can surf in the waters across the street there isnt a traditional sandy beach which is ideal for families, particularly those who were trying to walk everywhere. Overall, we had a good time but would not return.

Great Condo located in the heart of Kihei. Beaches, parks, shops, restaurants and bars. Great view of ocean with swimmers, surfers and snorkelers. Our hosts, Ligia and Mike couldn’t have been better. Our first nite we had problems with the TV set. The next morning they showed up with a brand new 65 inch set. Ligia would text every few days to check if all was well and see if we needed anything. Great hosts, great Condo!
