We had an awesome time. Robert our host was amazing responded right away to questions I had. The view from the lanai was amazing. Place was very clean. We would definitely and will stay there again.

The location is perfect for everything. Pool, laundry and office very easily accessible from the lanai. The condo had everything we needed and more. Parking was always available close by. Top Maui beaches are right across the street. We had a small ant issue in the kitchen but they had spray available that helped. I will hopefully be able to get this exact condo again in the future.

Great condo unit , very clean , comfortable ,with everything you will need. The grounds crew keep this location absolutely perfectly manicured, with fresh flower popping up daily. The pool is a perfect temperature to just float and relax all day. This was our 14th time to Maui and 1 of the best places we have stayed, highly recommend this unit .

We arrived & the condo had an awful smell. Mainly in the bedroom. I noticed animal poo on the floor & counters, as well as the kitchen cabinet doors. I called the on Island management, no answer. Then I texted him pictures. I then called Tracy off island contact left message with her. Then texted her about the uncleanliness. She texted back and said that someone would be over to check & clean. Beau the on island contact texted back as well & apologized he forgot to arrange for pre-visit cleaning. Condo had been empty for weeks he said. A gentleman came & cleaned the living room space & countertops. He missed the Gecko poo on the cabinet doors. As we settled in the condo it was not comfortable. The whole place needed a good deep cleaning. The sheets on the bed smelled, as I said in the beginning the bedroom smelled. I sent another text to the on island number to let him know the kitchen cabinet doors needed cleaning & left a note about the bedroom. Hopefully they realized the need & did a deep cleaning before renting.

Nice condo in Kihei. Owners are very quick to respond. Condo bedroom can be loud at night as the bed is next to a wjndow. If you're a light sleeper .

We had a lovely stay at Michelle and Jeff's condo. The unit was exactly as described and in great condition. It took us awhile to find the air conditioner in the living room, but honestly throughout the afternoon we hardly needed it with the trade winds going through. The unit had so many appreciated extras - beach chairs, boogie boards, cooler, beach towels, dvds, games, puzzles, books! We used the community pool and bbqs during our stay, and there was even free starfruit at the front desk from the tree out front. Michelle and Jeff were great to communicate with and I very much appreciated their hospitality. Would definitely stay here again!

This was our second time staying at this KKN unit, and we definitely plan on making it a regular visit (at least 2 times/year). Everything was clean and convenient. The hosts always reply, immediately, with any questions and/or concerns. Absolutley wonderful experience!

We arrived in Maui for a family wedding with the idea of making this a family/friend vacation. 77 traveling from Texas. We split our stay between vacation rentals and big resorts. I preferred these accommodations hands down over the ridiculously overpriced resort. Best bang for the buck for sure. Fully stocked kitchen, which I wish we had taken advantage of, was impressive. My only criticism would be that the 2 mini-splits seemed a bit underpowered for the space. We made it work! Great Hosts as well

If you want to stay at this property and have a car, you are in for a surprise. no real parking. They clearly state parking is available next door and it is if you're lucky enough to get a spot. This information only comes out in their final instructions. Save yourself the headache and only book places in Waikiki that have guaranteed on-site parking. This was an expensive lesson for me I will not forget.

Great location for me. Everything you need is local (food, beach, shopping), don't have to get in the car if you don't want to. Easy access to Maui route 31 for getting to other parts of Maui. Only thing I didn't find local was Hawaiian music (though could find some with a short drive)

Very short walk to Kam II beach as well as restaurants, bars, and shopping. It’s also very close to the pool.

A really lovely and homely place to stay in Maui! The location was incredible - the beach across the street was perfect for sunset viewing and swimming, and there were 2-3 others within 10-15 minutes of walking. The laundry on-site was convenient and clean (we went to the adjacent pool while waiting)! When we arrived, the area around the complex and the apartment did have a slightly wet, musty odor, but that completely went away the second day and never returned, so perhaps that was an anomaly. It was quite hot without the AC and fans on and it got warm at night, but it was manageable. Unfortunately the power was shut off for half a day during our stay for maintenance, but we booked an excursion so there was no problem :) Overall, would recommend! A great price for such a central location and apartment with everything you would need.

Do not waste your money and time .there are mouses in the apartment when we arrived the sheets were dirty and had poop mouse and shower bathroom mat carpet room were dirty too .if you want to enjoy a good time in a clean place this is the wrong choice.

The beach across the street was perfect for swimming and body surfing. A variety of places for a meal or snack was within easy walking. The condo had comfortable furniture including the bed and pull out sofa. The kitchen had everything needed to make meals. Good communication with owner regarding instructions and information. The keypad door lock was really helpful. We had a great time and would return!

My husband and I loved staying in this home for our honeymoon! The home was clean and well-put together. There was everything you needed for cooking in the kitchen. We loved the condo community as well. The staff on site were very friendly and welcoming. It is a quiet community. We never had any problem finding free parking, which was included when you booked the condo. Finally, we loved the location! The beach is right across the street, and more beaches are a short car ride away. Kihei is an ideal location for exploring South Maui! We recommend this home for your next vacation.

Our family of 6 (myself, spouse, our two young adult kids, and our two teenagers) had a wonderful time in this rental! Yes, it was tight, but we've been in smaller hotel rooms...it's all perspective and the location cannot be beat! Opening up all of the windows created an amazing breeze and using the patio as an extension of the place gave it a fun vibe. We really appreciated the washer/dryer in the unit and the availability of beach umbrella, chairs, and wagon. The beach really is right across the street (as well as shopping and eateries) and not having to find a parking spot daily to enjoy the beach makes this property worth every penny. We would absolutely stay here again!

The unit was very clean, comfortable and pleasantly updated. We had an event right next door -- at Penny's Pasta & Pizza, so we didn't even have to drive anywhere. I would definitely stay here again

We have stayed at this condo on numerous occasions and it never has disappointed. It is close to so many beaches, shops and great places to eat. From Kihei you can take a short trip or a day trip and see everything that Maui has to offer. We love it here and cannot wait to come back.

Had a great stay in Kehei here. There were a few things during the stay - but they were all easily manageable and didnt detract from our holiday. Super happy with the beach 'extras' - chairs, umbrella, cooler, towels!

This was the second year in a row we stayed in this lovely condo at Kihei Kai Nani. We were thrilled it was available. The grounds and amenities are top notch. The location is unbeatable. It feels like our second home.

Our family had a wonderful time during our stay in Maui and this was the perfect place for us. It was comfortable, in a great location, and provided everything we needed during our three week stay. Becky was accessible and welcoming, and we never had to contact her for anything as the condo had it all. We highly recommend this VRBO for anyone looking for the best home away from home.

It is well maintained and feels secure. We enjoyed the convenient location especially to the pool and beach. The unit itself is tastefully decorated and has everything you need to enjoy your stay. It was very comfortable. Loved the lanai and ocean view! Loved having A/C. It was so smart having it on a timer.

I just stayed here for two weeks and loved it! This unit is decorated so beautifully! So visually appealing and filled with Hawaii style! The king size bed is co comfy and I truly loved having a/c in the bedroom at night. I went in June and really needed A/C then because the trade winds start slowing in June. Otherwise it's situated perfectly so it doesn't get direct sunlight in the unit. Helps keep it cool by just opening the front door and the lanai door and allowing the trade winds and fans to move the air. The condo had everything I needed and was just as described. And the owner was quick to respond to me. She even rescheduled the exterminator (yes, there are bugs in Hawaii so I did appreciate that there is an exterminator service) so it wasn't while I was staying there. 😁 This was my first stay in this unit... and my third time staying at Kihei Kai Nani. I love this location. It's so close to everything! I can walk to the beach, restaurants, grocery, and shops in just minutes. The pool is wonderful when the ocean is choppy or brown. The laundry room is also super easy and convenient. Even has soap for purchase and a change machine. I keep coming back here for all those reasons. And I would definitely stay here again! I highly recommend this unit! Thank you, Karen, for all the details you've added to the place. They just made the experience authentic for me!

We had a great visit in Kiehe. Karen’s condo was perfect. It had everything we needed. Bed was very comfortable. Pool was awesome. We walked across the street to the beach for sunset every evening. We also walked to coconuts for fish tacos a couple of times - in the shopping center next door. Can’t wait to return!

June 2024

Overall this is a very good condo. Pros: Great star viewing from the spacious lanai, nice breezes to keep things cool, and when there isn't a breeze, the air conditioners cool the condo down somewhat. Excellent location, clean, and competitive pricing. The bed was comfortable, the kitchen is well stocked, and there are plenty of beach chairs and towels for the beach. Good for a beach vacation. Cons: Although the major kitchen appliances look recently updated, the kitchen can fit only one person, and the counter top is very short. The in-window air conditioners struggle to keep the condo cool. The decor isn't beachy

Had a wonderful stay, this condo had everything you would need to have a great visit to Maui. To me the highlight is the location, great walking access to restaurants and a lovely grocery store and beaches. Would highly recommend for 2 people, I think potentially could be a bit snug for more than that but you could make it work! Great host, lovely place

This was the optimal place to stay. Spacious, great location, pool, amenities, great local spots/eateries/stores nearby, the beach right across and a great time. I would definitely stay here again.

Situated perfectly for access to Kihei beaches and dining, close to Wailea. AC unit keeps the kitchen/living area cool, bedroom was quite hot but a fan made it manageable to sleep at night. Had an issue with the unit on our 2nd day, and the management was very quick to respond and it was all fixed by the time we were back from the beach! All in all this listing is great and sets you up nicely for an awesome Maui vacation!
