The property was exactly as listed. The lanai is the star of this condo. Although a bit hot in the late afternoon, the sunsets were amazing! Good location to access the many nearby beaches and only a short walk to local convenience stores.

The lanai was my favorite place. The day bed is comfy & roomy enough for 2 to relax and watch the sunset at the end of the day or even to sleep as the waters of the Pacific lull you into a tropical dreamland. The rental is just as described and the bed is very comfortable.

Nice quiet complex. Unit was super clean and well stocked. Kitchen items were in great shape. Was so relaxing sitting on the lanai - saw quite a few turtles and a few rainbows. Host was very communicative although we had zero issues. Highly recommend!

This property was even better then the photos. It had everything to make our stay perfect. The lanai was absolutely beautiful with the ocean so close. It was very clean and cozy. We will be back!

We spent four days at this great little condo. It was well located close to lots of beautiful beaches and plenty of Restaurants and places to shop. Loved the ground floor location. Beautiful cross breeze kept it cool day and night.
We didn’t cook a lot because our stay was only four days, but the kitchen looked very well appointed. And I particularly appreciate the functional knife set. So many properties skimp on their knives but this set offered everything I needed.
The bed was comfortable, and there were plenty of towels for two of us. I definitely stay again. There was so much to do and see in West Maui I definitely stay again. There was so much to do and see in West Maui we for sure we for sure need to go back.

Property in great condition. Great views, quiet and peaceful. Condo had everything we needed to relax and enjoy our time. Will be back for our 20th anniversary. 🙂
Anyone complaining about this place should lower their expectations and standards. It was GREAT!

The condo was nice with a few exceptions. The mattress on the bed really needs to be replaced. It was so uncomfortable that every morning we had woke up due to back pain. The shower door was obviously broken and replaced with a curtain. not a big deal but deceiving on the photos from website. Not enough containers in the cabinets for food service. The other really bad issue was the kitchen sink when turned on to full was a trickle of water. This made it so difficult to fill the coffee pot or wipe down the counters let alone washing any dishes by hand. We were only given 1 dish towel and wash rag for the whole 10 days. Not enough by any means. Would I stay in this unit again? Maybe if the above items were taken care of.

The unit was clean and in a great location overlooking the ocean. Turtles were constantly swimming along the sea wall out side of the back porch. The beach accessories (chairs, towels, cooler) were incredibly useful. Sunset views were beautiful. Our stay was great and we recommend Kahana Reef

We had a great stay! Away from the resort chaos yet close to everything. Amazing views with sea turtles every day! Quiet neighbors and very clean grounds. All of the beach equipment that was provided was the best! Didn’t have to worry about renting anything. There really isn’t an accessible sandy beach but that didn’t detract from our visit. Thank you!!!

I took my two young daughters, 9 and 13, for their very first trip to Maui. The property is very well kept and close to markets, food, etc. The owners left a folder explaining the history of the unit and how it’s been in the family for many years. It was a pleasure to be a guest and create new memories in this home. My daughters absolutely loved it! We saw sea turtles, sharks, rainbows and so much more! I’ll definitely plan on starting here again on my future visits.

From the minute we walked in to the condo and saw the ocean view, we knew we had chosen the best place to stay.
Loved having a Brita pitcher and fresh ice in the freezer. Turning on the ceiling fans and the small fans was enough to cool down the spaces. Thank you for the beach chairs and towels. Lots of food choices nearby. Easy drive to Lahaina or nearby snorkeling spots.

The view was amazing. The home was clean upon arrival.
A few things: we didn’t have enough toilet paper for the entire stay and last view day of my stay is when we noticed roaches.

View so close to water we felt like we were on a cruise! Location is good. Place had what we needed for the duration of our stay. Would definitely recommend summer pricing! But if you can afford winter I think it would be amazing if whales could be seen from the room!
Overall a very quaint building and updated room.

My husband and I came to Maui to celebrate my birthday. We were soooo pleased when we opened the door to this thoughtful vacation home. It is so cozy and the décor is just adorable and perfect for the setting. The bed was comfy, kitchen was fully stocked, beach accessories were available as well. The best was the view from the lanai, and we loved sitting on the daybed on the lanai also, it was perfect for a little getaway. Minor issues, ants were coming from a small gap in the wall by the sink, they were attracted to the fresh flower by the sink. They were not a nuisance, once we removed the flower to outside they slowly went away. But this would need to be addressed as people of course will eat in there, to prevent them from coming back. Also, HIGHLY suggest a detachable showerhead instead of just the waterfall option to ensure a super clean body after a day at the beach lol. Lastly, everything was clean, maybe I have OCD, but it could've used a bit more cleaning for the floors. Nothing that would prevent me from coming back. If my husband and I visit Maui again, we would definitely stay there.

We had a great stay at the property. The location is fantastic and views were incredible. Watching the sunset every evening from the comfort of the patio was the highlight of our trip. Our only qualm was that the listing stated there was AC, but there was only a portable unit in the living room that couldn't be felt if you weren't within 10 feet of the machine. All of the fans were nice to have but the bedroom was warm as we stayed during the month of July. I would recommend either putting an AC unit in the bedroom or changing the description. Thanks for a great stay, host was incredibly responsive. We would come back!!

Hula hideaway is the perfect spot for a honeymoon or baby moon in Maui! I’m not a morning person but I was so excited in the mornings to open the curtains and look out to the ocean from the bed. We had breakfast every morning watching the turtles right in front and caught the rainbow a few times too! Would love to come back and spot whales during the season! The property has everything you would need, kitchen supplies (though I wish there were some herbal tea bags too as I kept forgetting to buy them myself), enough towels and beach towels, bed is comfy, snorkeling gear, A/C is nice etc. I loved our time at Maui and a big reason for that is staying here. I’m so happy we found this place and booked it! You won’t regret it :) Property management was also very friendly, responsive and professional. They helped with late check out, gave us some local recommendations and made the whole booking process smooth.

We had a beautiful stay at Kahana Reef! We loved the unit and the ability to walk right out onto the grass in the morning! You were so amazing in letting us use the Pack n Play for our baby! The neighbors of our unit were so welcoming. Saw lots of turtles right out in front! Definitely will be back! Thank you

This was the perfect location for our anniversary trip. My husband's first trip to the islands! The condo was clean, spacious, and had the most stunning view! It was in a fantastic location close to coffee, restaurants, and the bigger resorts to access their luaus, restaurants, etc. Loved the absolute peace of this condo though! Enjoyed the outside spaces at all times of day. Parking was always available! We would love to come back!

The Condo was perfect for our week stay on Maui. Starting and finishing each day on the Lanai, listening to the waves and usually seeing sea turtles made for a fantastic stay. We enjoyed the cool breeze from the Ocean which is only a few feet from the second floor Lanai, but also enjoyed the AC and comfortable bed. The condo had everything we needed. We would absolutely stay here again if we return to Maui in the future.

Great stay for my family’s first visit to Maui. With a little one, we spent a lot of time in the unit which was very relaxing. Breathtaking views being on the ground floor; it was amazing to take a quick dip in the ocean just a few steps away. We saw sea turtles from the living room and sharks on the shore when the neighbors tossed the ice from their daily catch. Complex is well maintained with quite a bit long term residents. China Boat across the street was convenient and delicious. Gas, general store & restaurants are all close by.
It was a long drive just about everywhere, especially if you want to drive the road to Hana, which we wound up near on 3 different occasions.
I have a thing about lighting – all the bulbs are daylight/cool tone (except for kitchen). It was like living in an office with the bright white light. Not what I want to experience on a vacation. I suggested they change them to a warm tone.
Pros: view, plushness of bed, nice sheets
Cons: sliding door is heavy and hard to open, only 1 pot, no tongs or pasta scooper, no dish strainer, bright light bulbs, sparse kitchen

The hotel is located in a beautiful location. But the neighboring fishermen washed their fish in the evenings and this attracted sharks, so swimming in the ocean is dangerous.

Absolutely stunning views. The pictures in the profile don’t do it justice. This condo is beautiful. Bigger than expected. Well stocked. Beach is steps away, OHHH and the sea turtles! Everyday anywhere from 5/10 turtles swimming just right there in front of you. Loved this location. Far enough from it all and yet close enough to everything. So peaceful. Would love to stay here again.

We stayed at Kahana Reef 47 years ago on our honeymoon. We had a budget of $1000. We needed airfare, lodging, a car, and food. A travel agent directed us to $20/night condos for our two weeks, Kahana Reef. Individually owned and rented through office by laundry room. Still have brochure in our album. Direct beach access, no sea wall or pool then China boat predicessor across the street as well as sugar cane fields up the hillside. They were burning the cane while we were here. Amazing sight. Created a few issues with small critters escaping the burning but KR was prepared. Great visit then and 3 more visits since. First time we have been on ground floor. Love this unit. Clean and neat. We bbq’d with our son n family who were staying down the road. Great family sunset pics. Oh has Kahana changed since our first visit. Here you don’t feel crowded. DnJ

We've stayed at Kahana Reef before in another unit and the oceanfront is just beautiful. You'll see turtles out front every day along the wall (usually around dinner). The condo itself was in good shape and had everything we needed for our stay. Bed was comfortable for us and we kept the windows and doors open in the mornings and evenings to cool down the unit. The fans helped as well. Would definitely stay here again.

My wife and i loved our visit at this very lovely place. The view of the ocean and the sea turtles from the balcony were incredible. The daybed so confortable easliy to relax and fall asleep on. So well stocked we had everything from beach umbrella, chairs, and snorkeling equpment to really enjoy the beach. great location to get to several great beaches. Take the trip to Hana and the north side of west Maiu, both beautiful. Would not hesitate to go back to this home away from home!

We really liked the condo, the view of the ocean is wonderful!
But our vacation was not complete because it was impossible to swim in the ocean because of the reef sharks that came every evening. Because the fishermen next to the hotel washed their fish every day,

We loved how consideration of noise for others was a priority for this building. Watching turtles from the lanai was incredible and lanai was a very comfortable size. Appreciated having the sunbed on the lanai as well. Nicely decorated. Property management was fantastic with great communication.

Have been remiss in sharing our awesome stay last February. The studio was fully stocked with many little thoughtful touches. The Hideaway team even purchased a tea pitcher before we arrived when I had asked if they had one.
But by far, the best was the amazing lanai with the expansive ocean views. We spent many hours there and saw some incredible whale activity without going anywhere. And of course, lots of turtles. It was very hard to break away!
