We had a wonderful time at the Kihei Akahi C618. The condo is lovely and well-equipped, and the views from the lanai are stunning. The owner was attentive and a pleasure to deal with.

Our family loved this Maui property. Very clean, welcoming and comfortable. Well stocked with beach chairs and towels too. Dishwasher, washer and dryer were excellent to have. Kitchen was very functional and had all that you needed. Also even an ice machine. Best part 4 minute walk to the beach and sunsets every night. Magical. 🌸

Ocean view with tons of things in walking distance. Had reading material for sight seeing which made that easier as reception in the mountains was scarce.

Overall our experience was good. Property was well maintained. We had an issue getting into the property as the property management company did not provide us with a code to our residence as detailed in our instructions. We called all available numbers provided and did not get an answer. We were able to get ahold of the actual owner who lived on island and she graciously came down and provided

We had such a wonderful week. The condo had everything we needed and was very clean and comfortable. The grounds are just beautiful and pools very nice too. Each evening we crossed the street to witness the beautiful sunset - there is a crosswalk right in front of the complex. Owners were great to work with. Hope to come again.

A feeling of contentment as you walk into the unit. The view speaks for itself, which is truly remarkable. Comfortable chaise and sofa allow quiet sitting and chatting or just relaxing and reading. The aircon units in lounge and bedroom make a huge difference. The kitchen is truly well appointed with everything you may need. The location is superior. Walking distance to everything. A really great place to stay.

Very nice unit in the D Building, which sits back away from the main road and is parallel to the beach, meaning the views and sunsets are awesome. Everything is as advertised for a short or extended stay. The AC is not a split system, only a window unit in the main living room. The back bedroom stays cool if you run the fans and move cool air back. We opened the windows and let the trade winds blow and it was awesome. Wife and I plan to return every year as long as Stephen has it available on VRBO.

We (family of 4) loved everything about our stay. The place is exactly as seen in the pictures, with a wonderful Lanai that has lots of privacy thanks to the abundant flora, and the location is truly excellent. We went for a sunset swim every night because the beach is right there, just a 2 minute walk away. The facilities are also very good, with 2 very warm pools, a tennis/pickleball court, and super friendly staff. The apartment is well equipped, from the kitchen to beach necessities we never missed anything. When it’s very hot out the apartment does get warm too, but it was ok. Highly recommended!

It was a hot and humid week in Maui, and a bedroom A/C would have made this stay perfect. Otherwise loved everything else! Perfect location, nice shower & water pressure, comfortable furniture, well-supplied kitchen. Lots of beach equipment!

Exceptionally clean ground floor unit especially considering it’s so close to a Hawaiian beach. Updated furnishings, artwork, counters, etc all in great condition. Hard to find any blemishes with this unit. Parking spot is the closest spot to the building which was awesome. 3 minute walk down to the popular beach. Supplied beach chairs and toys all still in great shape considering the amount of use I’m sure they get. Nice that we didn’t have to bring or rent our own. Only complaint would be a few tiny ants in the kitchen, but as long as we kept it clean and didn’t leave food out it wasn’t an issue. Air conditioning was the biggest game changer. Individual AC units in the living room and each bedroom were very responsive and made minimal sound. In early September these were a must, not sure fans would hack it during the hot season. Great location within walking distance of restaurants and a convenience store. Would definitely stay here again!

Came to Maui for grandson's wedding. And had a wonderful time! The condo was in perfect area for my daughter and grandsons to see and enjoy Hawaii for the 1st time. With all the shops and beaches it gave them the freedom to go and explore without needing any transportation. Nightlife at the Barmuda Triangle rounded out the vacation for the boys perfectly.The only complaint was fan in smaller bedroom didn't work.

Our first visit to Maui was made very comfortable by this condo! The location is very convenient, being steps away from the beach, shops and restaurants. The place is well kept, has a beautiful view and is well stocked from kitchen items, to beach gear! Stephen is very communicative and informative. We definitely hope to visit again one day! Thanks Stephen!

Excellent location which is as good as it gets. They had all the essentials - Beach chairs, umbrella, basic seasoning, cups/plates/pots/utensils. We even enjoyed pool side bbq a couple of times. The unit is spacious for a family of 4. We loved the split ACs through out in all rooms. As mentioned in some other reviews that the bathroom is a little dated but it was fine, it’s something I expected if we were staying with friends/family. We would stay in this unit again.

This studio has all the equipment you’ll need for your stay. The positives-close to kam 2, close to heated pool, close to amenities, ac nice and cool, and very affordable for the area. Slept well in the bed and has a full kitchen which is nice for a studio.

We really enjoyed our stay in Kihei. The condo is right across the street from a great beach park with nice sand, lifeguard, light wave action for playing in the water, and a rocky area to snorkel or search for critters in tide pools. Despite the lack of AC, there is good circulation through the unit aided by several fans. We brought our own beach gear but it was not necessary as there was an abundance of beach towels, body boards, snorkel gear, etc, so you can pack lightly knowing you will not miss out on the fun. We also appreciated the stock of mineral sunscreens left behind by previous guests. Very useful and safe for the coral. Overall a great condo and good value for the area.

Great views from the lanai (much better than pictured!). Condo had ample room for 2 adults, 2 kids. We were grateful for the a/c as the afternoons were toasty. Big plus was being able to use beach chairs, umbrella, cooler as purchasing or renting those items would be another cost. Walking distance to good food and souvenir shops. We enjoyed the beaches nearby and quietness at night. The grounds crew was impressive, always cleaning the property. We felt safe and well cared for. Sue is great to work with! A lovely spot - would visit again!

Everything from checkin, location, amenities, and checkout were fantastic. Property was very clean and offered plenty of amenities that I don’t think I can go back to starting at hotels/resorts while staying in Hawaii. In room laundry, kitchen, and beach gear (chairs, cart, sand toys) were very helpful and welcomed.

We had a fantastic stay at this condo in Maui! The place was spotless, beautifully organized, and extremely comfortable—just what we needed for a relaxing getaway. The location couldn’t have been better, with the beach just a short walk away. The condo was well-maintained, with everything we needed for beach days, including chairs, umbrellas, and even snorkeling gear! The owner was incredibly communicative and made the entire process from booking to checkout seamless. Highly recommend staying here—can’t wait to come back!

We thoroughly enjoyed our weeklong stay in this condo. Both the condo itself and the hallways and grounds are extremely clean and tidy. The view from the sixth floor balcony is amazing and we enjoyed it from dawn until dusk. The condo was well supplied with everything we needed, and the air conditioning in the living room was great to have in the evenings when the breezes died down. This was our favorite condo of any we have stayed at over the years in Maui.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We (couple +/-55 years from Germany) enjoyed our stay here in this apartment Unit #D113 in Kihei very much!!! We found Kihei itself to be a good starting point for various activities, and there are restaurants within walking distance. It is about 30 minutes from the airport.The apartment is very tastefully furnished - we felt right at home!Everything is very clean and the kitchen is well equipped with everything you need. Checkin works online and you can choose the code for the entrance door - so don't forget (-;Communication with the management is online, prompt and very nice.At the on-site check-in you get a sign for the car and have a privately assigned parking space which is very helpful as you don't have to search for a parking space.We would definitely come back and we were sad to leave this place.Thank you very much !!!

And this is a great condo, the location is superb, across the street from a great beach.

I had an exceptional stay at this apartment. It offers everything you could possibly need in one place. The kitchen is fully stocked with all the essentials, making it easy to prepare meals just like at home. The reserved parking was a significant advantage, providing peace of mind and convenience. The apartment also comes with cable TV and a selection of games, which added to the overall enjoyment of the stay. For beach outings, there were chairs, umbrellas, and even a snorkel equipment available. The space was clean, comfortable, and truly felt like a home away from home. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a hassle-free and enjoyable stay.

This suite in Kihei Akahi complex is absolutely fantastic. The expansive view from the sixth floor is beautiful, the layout and size accommodates a good size group (we were for adults and lots of space), the pools and grills are close and well maintained, the proximity to the beach and to nearby shops and restaurants is ideal, and there are all the kitchen utensils and equipment that you will need for great stay. Our only issue was with the quality of the beds. The twins were air mattresses that members of our group found uncomfortable, and the king in the main bedroom is worn out. Given the almost perfection for the rest of this unit, it would seem from our point of view that an upgrade of beds would put the icing on the cake.

August 2024

We love Kihei Akahi. Booking and checkin were simple and convenient. The unit was clean and well stocked. We used the beach chairs and umbrella every time we went to the beach. The unit had an ocean view. We were even able to see the July 4th fireworks show. There are several places to eat within walking distance, Coconuts being our favorite. We will definitely stay here again.

We recommend the apartment of Petra and Terry for everyone who is looking for a peaceful place to sleep and relax before and after the Maui’s experiences and activities. It’s like a beach/pool resort because one of the nicest beach of Kihei is in front of the resort and you have two pools available. We loved everything about this paradise!
