We were very pleased. Quite location. Had very little people around us on the beach when we were there.

Pros: David is an excellent host. He was very helpful and checked in to make sure everything was perfect for us. Sugar Beach is long and great for walking. The condo was low key, clean, and well kept. The bed was excellently comfortable (new, not too firm, not too soft). The kitchen was well appointed with everything we needed for cooking. The lanai was blocked from the winds and lovely to sit and drink coffee and have breakfast. It is well located on the island for exploring West Maui, upcountry, and Hana. TONS of great restaurants and grocery stores nearby (thanks for the recommendations David!). There are beach chairs, towels, an umbrella, a boogie board and even coolers. A new washer and dryer came in useful! The grounds and pool are well kept with a lovely lawn to lay on.
Just a few cons to be honest: The air conditioning window units are loud and right by the bed (not a problem if you want to sleep with the windows open instead) but something to consider if you're a light sleeper. The parking space was tight (we had a mid sized SUV). The condo itself is on the smaller side (worked well for just my husband and I). The water off of Sugar Beach was not the crystal clear Maui water that we'd expected, more of a cloudy brown, but we loved walking the long stretches of gorgeous sand and had fun exploring the many nearby beaches. That being said, we really enjoyed our time and would recommend David and this condo for those looking for a splendid stay on Maui!

We recently had the pleasure of staying at a beautiful condo in Maui and I couldn't have been happier with my experience. The condo was not only stunning, but it was also immaculately clean and well-maintained. The views from the condo were absolutely breathtaking, and I loved being able to wake up to the sight of the sparkling ocean every morning. The location of the condo was also perfect - it was close to all the attractions and amenities in Maui, yet still provided a peaceful and tranquil retreat. The staff at the condo were incredibly friendly and accommodating, and they went above and beyond to make sure that my stay was comfortable and enjoyable. I would highly recommend this condo to anyone looking for a luxurious and relaxing getaway in Maui. It exceeded all of my expectations, and I can't wait to return for another visit.

We really enjoyed our stay here as always. The only problem we experienced with this unit was ants. We kept all food in the refrigerator and kept a tidy stay in this unit and even after being sprayed for ants we had a problem. The on-site maintenance manager was awesome. We always saw him out working even on the 4th of July. He really makes sure the place is taken care of.

We adored the ocean view from the lanai and enjoyed watching the chickens walk around in the grass below us. The outrigging paddling teams would launch from the nearby club and we got to see them out in the water. Sugar beach was a more quiet beach, perfect for runs and walks. There was sunscreen, lotion, and snacks set out for us, which was a special treat we appreciated. A/C worked great and we were impressed by how quiet it was, despite the road nearby. Super clean and relaxing!

My mom and I stayed here as a much needed respite from my father’s passing. The condo was everything we needed, well appointed and very clean. The property is perfectly situated not far from the heart of Kihei, which is very cute with lots of good restaurants and food trucks. The best part here though was the stunning views of the ocean from the lanai, sound of the waves lulling you to sleep and direct sugar beach access. There’s also a lovely pool on-site as well. Lydia was very helpful in calling to warn us of a minor flying insect issue caused by the weather and offered to have cleaners come, we appreciated her attentiveness.

This was our second time staying in this unit. Everything about this was wonderful until we were charged $50 for a lost beach towel (which I'm certain was in the condo). I know the towel realistically cost between $10 to $20. It's kind of a disappointing way to end an otherwise perfect stay.

Everything as described and as promised. 70's style condo that's been updated, Right on the beach with great views and easy access to the sand. Little bit of road noise but it's right off the highway so as expected. I could get to most things in 20 minutes or less from this location which was great! Quaint places right around the corner and not overly populated like the bigger resorts. Recommend to anyone who's out doing things during the day and needs a nice little place to crash at the end of the night.

What an awesome location and condo! We really enjoyed our time and plan to return. From the well-stocked kitchen/bathroom, to comfy bed, to amazing ocean waves right outside the building - literally nothing to complain about. Traffic can be loud at times, but the waves are louder! Loved it! The welcome note & treats were a special touch as well. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

My husband and I enjoyed our stay. The condo was outdated and too much furniture in it. The bed was super hard and the pillows needed to be replaced. Also my husband used the swifter on the floor, only there 2 days and it was pretty dirty. The location of the property is amazing, the grounds were kept up everyday. The condo needs lots of work inside, a new air conditioner in front room and one in the bedroom would of be idea. it was very loud and hard to sleep at night. The pictures of the condo really didn't show how outdated it is. I think once they do upgrades to the inside of the condo it will be much nicer and really enjoyable. Thank-you.

This condo was everything that was promised in the VRBO description, but what really set it apart from the average rental were the owners Frank and Susan. The personal touch from the welcome basket with all kinds of goodies to the champagne with ice provided.
Frank's quick response to any issues or questions was very helpful.
The bed is superbly comfortable.
The view was spectacular. I mean you are truly so close to the ocean and sparkling clean beautiful beach you feel you could almost reach out and touch it.
If I could give more than five stars I would.
Thank you Frank and Sandy.

This was an excellent place to stay. We started each morning with coffee on the deck while listening to the crashing waves. After that, most mornings also included a walk on the beach. The condo is a perfect size for two, David is an excellent host and communicator. The location was quieter than some areas we visited which is what we look for. Great beaches, shopping, restaurants and food trucks all within a couple minutes of the condo. We really appreciated all the amenities and the beach chairs were so comfortable. We will definitely be returning to Maui in the future and we hope to be able to stay here again.

We loved this unit, the Lanai for coffee, or wine :) was awesome. To sit out here listening to the waves and watching the sun sink was so relaxing.
We are from Texas, and AC was sadly very important to us, this unit has two units that worked perfectly. Wifi was perfect. Kitchen was well stocked even though we ate out most of the time. Lastly, you always hope for a comfortable bed, and it was.
Darla was a great host, very good communication, and we certainly enjoyed the maui themed snacks. Thank you again!!

Kealia Resort #203 is a gem... a beautiful & comfortable home away from home! Everything you need is waiting for you. Sleep peacefully on a king-size bed, relax watching the swaying palm trees & the ocean from the lanai, living room & kitchen. An instant exhale. Take the elevator or a quick set of stairs to the pool and Sugar Beach, or BBQ at the oceanfront grills. During this trip we discovered sweeping views & amazing menu at Ocean Organic Farm & Distillery in Kula, a short 20-minute drive - next to Surfing Goat Dairy). Do not miss the toasted coconut or lilikoi malasadas & key lime pie at Sugar Beach Bake Shop (a quick 10-minute walk) are out of this world! Thanks, Sherry for the recommendation! A wonderful stay.

This is our first time on Maui. My mother recommended this specific location in Kihei. She loves the old-school vibe of this part of the island. My husband and I would prefer a more current vibe.
The unit is very nice inside.
Our hosts thought of everything that one may need. Very comfortable furniture, including the king-size bed. The view and sound of ocean out our windows is breathtaking.
We are right on the beach. We face west, so the sunset is visible nightly.
It’s a 30 minute beach walk/10 minute drive to businesses. We thought we wouldn’t need a car, even though there is a parking place on site. Wish we had rented one. Luckily, we had many friends also visiting who could ferry us around in their cars when we needed it. Also, we used Uber quire a bit.
This was a learning experience. Our hosts went out of their way to make it the best it could be. Even bringing us more coffee pods on request.

This top floor suite makes a great base for a Maui vacation. A long, flat walkable beach, well kept pool, BBQ area and waterfront make the experience beyond the room a most pleasant one while the well kept, very well appointed condo with welcoming hosts made our week long vacation on the island relaxing, and easy.

Impressive and nicely styled 550sqft condo about 30 yards from the beach. Full oceanfront views from LR and balcony! Good, high quality furniture and kitchen equipment: Ninja blender, All Clad cookware, beautiful dishes, etc. Soothing color choices for the walls. Small space but it reads large because of design choices and attention to detail. Cross breezes are cool at night. Slept with windows open and heard the surf all night long. Very relaxing! The property has about 50 units. It’s not a dense property so not a lot of people milling around. This was also a corner unit at the end of a hallway and felt very private. Nicely attended grounds with a tree covered, serene green space adjacent to the building overlooking the ocean. If you want quiet, beautiful and peaceful this place is for you!
