This place lived up to our expectations! We wanted a home base that was comfortable and they we could feel at home in. This suite fit the bill. Great parking options and the suite was close to the pool. The suite and the grounds are very well taken care of. The beach access was less neat and tidy. There was piles of garbage and abandoned carts presumably from people who are unhoused and sleep and store their things at the beach. No problems with the people and the beach itself is very clean and beautiful. We swam with turtles right there! The kitchen of the suite had all the pots, pans and tools we needed. A few comforts weren’t provided, such as food storage bags and Saran Wrap. We quickly learned we were relying on items previous guests bought and left behind and we know we could have done this as well. I also expected more soap options for the bathroom but maybe that’s not usually included in a rental situation like this. Towels were sparse. All these are things we know to expect for next time and we will bring our own or at least know what to expect. We really appreciated the use of snorkels, fins, beach chairs etc.

The apartment looks exactly as pictured. The lanai is such a nice touch. It’s in a very cute complex very close to ocean access (not a swimable beach, but a small pretty beach). They had lots of beach supplies that were very useful! They had beach mats, beach towels, lawn chairs, etc. We saw 2 cockroaches in the condo unfortunately but I think this is common on the island. The complex was nice but Kihei itself is not as manicured or as upscale as nearby Wailea. Close to many good coffee shops, restaurants, and grocery stores.

My husband and I stayed here for a few nights in August. The location was perfect! Just steps away from the beach, and the beach was not busy at all while we were there. Lots of tasty places to eat within walking distance. The condo was very clean! They had beach chairs, umbrella, towels, and toys. The pool and hot tub was very clean and relaxing as well. We would stay again. Highly recommend!

The property is advertised with AC. There is a window unit, but it does not work. The maintenance man verified it does not cool in summer, advising use of multiple fans and keeping doors open. The property manager is responsive and attempted to have a new unit approved by the host, to no avail. The host says it works fine if you give it time. This did not prove true, and the host was further nonresponsive during a hot summer stay.

We arrived at the condo and were able to easily gain access. We had major layovers in the airports so we came right in, took showers, and off to bed. You can only slide one door on the shower and the handle to turn on the shower is on the side you cant open so word of caution or you will get pe

This is a beautiful, quiet place to stay. I highly recommend renting this place. There is a beach just a couple minutes walk from the front door. The grounds are well kept with amazing plants and trees. Mary is a very thoughtful host and the condo is well stocked with amenities.

Basic Maui condo. Has all the needs. A little dated, and mismatched, but nothing terrible. Location is great for walkability.

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: The condo is very well stocked with nearly everything you may want and the management company is extremely responsive to requests. The condo is a 1/2 block walk to the beach and 1/2 block to a grocery store. There are great restaurants all within a 5 mile radius and Kaanapali is a 45 minute drive if you want to take the drive.

At little but North of the main area of Kihei but still close to tons of shops and grocery stores. Only downfall is the condo does have some items like pool noodles and snorkels but it is stuff that I think travellers have left behind.

Great place, close to the beach where you can watch the sunset as well as close to times supermarket. Only flaw was that there were ants on the stovetop when we arrived and during our stay, we would see ants moving up and down the stove top. We never used the stove top during our stay. Other than that, perfect accommodation.

Overal very happy with the condo and location. Didn’t have an iron (purchased one myself) to go with the ironing board. Didn’t have all the equipment as advertised ( body boards, snorkeling gear…), and bike tires we flat and never held air. Any issues we had were not an issue in the big picture with location and property grounds, the condo was a great value and would stay again.

The pool and hot tub were great as well. We were grateful for the beach chairs, umbrella and cooler bag from the rental. There is a grocery store just east of the apartment complex that was really nice to be close to. The only thing that wasn't provided that would have been nice would be some designated beach towels. Besides that we had an amazing stay!

A great holiday apartment. Perfect for a family with two children. There is a bedroom, a children's room with two beds and an open living room with kitchen. The balcony has a side view of the sea. Overall it was great! No complications at check-in/check-out. There was a good initial supply (toilet paper, soap, dishwasher tablets, pods for the washing machine, garbage bags...etc.) The pool area was also very good. Nice and clean and quiet.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Check in was easy, email has all info. Condo has plenty of towels and beach chairs. I like the shower head. Areas of improvement: cleaners need to wash sheets + pillow cases. I saw stains & pubic hair on sheets. I had to wash them before first night of use. Lock in front door was hard to use.

Place was clean enough. Living room furniture could be freshened up. Lots of steps so don't stay here if that is an issue. Check in and everything else was easy and we had enough information to do what we needed to do. Amenities provided were better than expected.

We enjoyed the clean, well equipped condo. Had a good view of the ocean and thoroughly enjoyed the location. The beach was less than a block away, which was great for watching the beautiful sunsets. Grocery store was right next door and good restaurants really close too.

What an amazing property, so spacious, comfortable, modern kitchen, close to everything we needed, we loved this little piece of heaven, when we left to move islands and into different rentals on Kauai and Oahu we missed this place so much as other rentals are so much smaller and not as convenient. This really is a home away from home and the most amazing spot to make your home for a Maui vacation.

This property is conveniently located to everywhere you’re trying to travel to on the island. The only bad part was the unit had a smell and the upstairs neighbors is loud at times. Doesn’t have central air so it takes awhile to cool the unit down. Other positives the unit did have accessories such as beach chairs and a cooler which came in handy.

Unit was perfect for our trip. Short drive from the airport, unit close to street parking and lot, so always had close parking. Condo is central to so many necessities; Times market (short walk) and many shops, restaurants, coffee, etc. we had a lot planned in our short 4 day trip, and it was conveniently located to everything, and it was nice to come back after a long day out and turn on the cold A/C units in each room to cool down. Our kids loved ending the day in the pool too. Super short walk to the beach.

Great Location for a trip to Maui. Staying in Kihei was much better than staying in western Maui because of the traffic and proximity to the whole island. This location in particular was great because it is right next to a dozen restaurants, food trucks, a grocery store, and the beach. We spent our honeymoon here and had a great time!

My family and I loved our stay in this condo. The place was clean, had a storage closet full of beach toys, snorkel gear, and extra sunscreen. The kitchen had plenty of sealable containers to store food for the beach as well! The bed was so incredible in the master. The lanai and yard area was a great place to return to. We played smash ball in the yard many nights. The premise is kept so very clean and it’s quiet. The families at the pool were all very nice and were a combination of local and visitors. The grocery store is steps away which was a major plus. The best part was being so very close to Nalu’s restaurant. Wow! Delicious and live family-friendly music every night. Maui is magical!

This is literally located across the street from the beach with lots if sandy dunes to sit on and watch the sun go down. Lots of shopping and great restaurants and food trucks nearby. The owner has thought about every detail and supplied everything you could possibly need. The initial email regarding check in was a little overwhelming with the number of “don’t…” but I’m guessing they’ve been burned in the past.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo itself is in need of TLC, the carpet is stained and old, not sure when it was fully renovated. The property is well maintained and the pool area was really clean. We liked that there was rules at the pool. Location was good but lots of homeless in the area and felt somewhat unsafe to walk around at night. We had problem with the key pad , the batteries were dead , thank god it happened in the morning and the rental company was very quick to take actions. The AC did not do much for the upper loft part of the condo and there was only thin blinds so very bright early in the morning .The place was quiet and we met very night people including some of the permanent residents who were very friendly. Overall a very good experience.

We were so pleased with our stay at this perfect Maui condo! The bright and cheery decor, the 3 different, roomy sleeping areas, the comfy bedding & mattresses, the plentiful fans and effective AC unit, the prompt responses from Gerald the owner, the short 1 minute walk to the beach and grocery store, we loved it all!!!

I don't want to tell you that this place is a great location and value, cuz then you will book it and we won't be able to next time. But, sharing is caring, so I am forced to tell the truth even if it will hurt my chances of coming back - THIS PLACE IS GREAT!!

We had such a great time here. The location was perfect, walking distance to the beach and market. The property has a shower and hose at the pool to rinse off after the beach. There were puzzles that my boys LOVED. They had boogie boards, beach chairs, sand toys, sunscreen. So many things were provided. We are sad to be leaving, but hope to be back soon.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Everything was great, only thing better for us would have been 1st floor room as the steps both going up to and then upstairs were a bit daunting. Just getting older lol. A couple of beach towels In The unit would be helpful. We left a whole box of coffee filters in the unit for next guests no need to have to buy 100 of them for a ten day stay. Salt and pepper would also be a plus. But none of that would keep us from coming back, we always enjoy our time there in the complex. Mahalo

Comfy and roomy place for my family on Maui for a short weekend trip. This home is close to stores, restaurants and shops in Kihei literally. Parking is no issue and the pool on property was awesome. Definitely will be a place that will be saved for future stays on Maui.
