Check in was great- very simple with excellent instructions from Maui Rentals. The property is clean and had everything we needed- accurate to the description. The lanai, while large enough, is very hot after sunrise. After the sun passes, the air conditioner blows quite a bit of heat out there as well- you need to turn off the ac. Minor annoyance. The pool area is great and the grounds are very well kept. Overall, we very much enjoyed our stay!

Upstairs neighbors were a bit on the noisy side. But we were so close to the beach we didn't care. The air conditioning acted up each night. The kitchen had everything we needed.

We had a very easy check in and check out process. The condo was just as described. The location is perfect, just a few minute walk to the beach, and all beach gear provided. One of the best sunsets I’ve ever watched. The entire town had a power outage, but the hosts quickly called us, and were super kind and helpful. Overall, highly recomend this unit and wonderful hosts!

Beautiful property. Excellently appointed. Never stayed in Kihei before and would love to go back and stay here if I can. Bob was wonderful. Helpful and patient. And if you like a good old time swimming pool… this one is huge with a long definite deep end. Thank you Bob!

We loved staying at Karen’s condo! So comfortable and clean, everything we needed for the beach and for making homemade meals, a perfect home away from home. We enjoyed our morning coffee on the lanai looking at the beautifully kept grounds, listening to the birds, so lush and peaceful. Karen is a great host, was very easy to communicate with as we needed to make some adjustments to our original booking. She was very prompt and accommodated our requests. Our favourite beach is a quick walk across the street, as well as our favourite shops and restaurants.We loved every minute of our 2 week stay and can’t wait to come back! We will definitely book with Karen, and highly recommend her and her beach retreat to friends and family

The title pretty much sums it up, I believe. We stayed here in 2021, 2023, and now 2024. Great location right across from the water, unit has everything you need, and we love south Maui. Hoping to stay one more time, after that I think we will just have to move to Maui.

We had an amazing stay at this rental. The views from the lanai were incredible, steps away from tasty food, beautiful beach and a great place to start a morning run from. The unit was very cozy and had everything we needed. Susan was an amazing host and helped us to modify our dates when our flight to Maui was canceled due to a storm. Would recommend to anyone!

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: So grateful to have come across Marika and Roger’s Maui rental! Conveniently located in Kihei, South Maui, across from Kameole Beach II and walking distance to essentials such as restaurants, a general store, and shops for local souvenirs. Lots of parking for your car rental, a clean pool for days that the ocean waves keep you out of the water.Their condo rental was more than I expected, better than listed. So beautifully decorated, so clean, and fully stocked - there is nothing you would need! Would absolutely look for this rental the next time I visit Maui! Highly recommend.

From the minute we walked into the condo we were so impressed with the new kitchen, new flooring, new bathroom, beautiful artwork and new furnishings. The view from the balcony is wonderful. The location offered us the ability to walk to coffee, restaurants, gelato, ice cream, shops and of course, the beach, which is directly across the street from the condo. We didn't use our car!!

The building is situated on a quiet, end of the street with nice breeze, people are friendly. Staff at the resort were helpful. The cool ocean breeze hits the end of that street and it moves to the direction of the condo. Sitting or having meals at the deck is a must.

Cute, clean, spacious and well-equipped accommodation located on the 2nd floor (stairs). We'll find everything you need for perfect holidays in Maui. The beach is just few steps across the road. Shops and restaurants are very close. The pool is clean, big and quiet warm. My son definitely enjoy it . Parking is included. Communication is easy and Informations for check are precise. The AC is situated in the living room, the fresh air can have difficulty reaching the bedroom (we were there at the end of July). But fans are provided. I highly recommended this accomodation and come back for sure.

We needed a place to stay for a family reunion and had stayed in several places in Kihei. I decided to go with this unit because of the reviews that I had read. Bob, the owner, contacted us after we booked one of his units and stayed in contact with us the time. he was quick to answer question I had and is very thorough in the information about what is expected of you during your stay. The unit was very clean and had everything we needed to make our stay like home.

We had a great stay. The condo was very well equipped and the location is great! Really enjoyed the pool which was warm and not very busy. Beach chairs, boogie boards and towels supplied and easy convenient parking. We hope to be back!

Enjoyed our 9 night stay in early July. Location was great: view of beach and steps to nightly spectacular sunsets. Lots of amenities and activities within walking distance. Unit is close to main road, but noise wasn't ever a problem for us as most know Maui rolls up their sidewalks at 9pm! Actually really liked the ground floor unit for ease of access. High quality kitchen equipment is always a priority for us; had everything (except a whisk!) which made it great for making meals. Large open great room area is nice for relaxing, but we spent our time out on patio in evenings mostly. Bed was very comfy with a variety of pillow types to choose from, and temperature control throughout the unit was very appreciated! Set in a relatively quiet complex with nice swimming pool, multiple good BBQ locations, trashy books to borrow from in laundry room. Snorkel equipment and boogie boards looked to be available for use, and it was great to have larger cooler for taking to beach and grocery shopping. We definitely enjoyed!

Kihei Kai Nani is in a great location, across the street from the beach, with a nice pool. We love Kihei and all the beaches near there and in Wailea. The condo was older but clean and had a kitchy 50's Hawaiian decor that I enjoyed. The bed was very soft. The back sliding doors are older and you have to be careful sliding them or they come off track easily (typical of doors from that era). The condo is small, perfect for 2 - only a sleeper sofa for any others you might bring along. If we ever go back without the kids, we would love to stay there again. Maui was beautiful but surprisingly empty - apparently the world thinks it all burned down last summer, not just old town Lahaina. (We love Lahaina and are very sad for all the people who lived and worked there). That being said, it was nice being there when it was less crowded than normal, but I would imagine it is hard on an island that runs on tourism.

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!

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.
