We loved our stay at Bobs place. Being a stone’s throw away from a great home base beach and having a balcony with a view of the sunset every night was important to us and this was the perfect place for a relaxing vacation. The condo had everything we needed and more! We were happy to be able to not have to worry about beach chairs, towels or umbrella as we spent most of the trip beach hopping. The location was super walkable and better than most of the other condos we had contemplated and saw once we arrived. The condo was very clean with a comfortable bed.

Karen was quick to reply to our questions and with a late flight home we were thankful for the late checkout out time. The property was stocked with al the kitchen gadgets you would need, plenty of towels and beach needs. Just a couple of suggestions... we wanted to ensure that we were on the ground floor because of my mobility issues, however there where stairs from the parking lot to the building. Secondly with an 11 day stay and 2 adults being provided with more than one small hotel size bar of soap for the shower would have been nice. Overall it was a great stay and we would go again!

Fantastic condo well stocked with everything one needs - beach chairs, umbrellas, beach towels. Kitchen has abundance of everything as well. Owner provided plenty of soaps, toilet paper etc which was immensely appreciated. Everything was in good condition from furniture to pots and pans. The king size bed also very comfortable.

This condo had everything we needed for our stay. The host/management were super responsive and helpful when getting us settled when we arrived. As others have said the location is unbeatable. Best sunsets across the street at the beach.

We stayed for 3 weeks, the unit was clean and well equipped for cooking and the beach. The bed was very comfortable and the A/C in the bedroom was nice.

A top notch place to stay in Maui. First, it's a ground floor unit so no lugging luggage, etc. up and down stairs. Second, it's a very quiet complex, so it was very relaxing at at all times. Third, Karen has it stocked like Fort Knox - we have never stayed in a VRBO so well stocked for EVERYTHING - lines, kitchen, beach items and it made it sooo easy for our stay. We had everything that we needed for the beach and you could walk across the street in 2 minutes and be at a top-notch beach w/out any hassles as a result. And sooo many restaurants were w/in walking distance - Moose McGillicuddy's was right around the corner, Kehei cafe just up the street. Do what we did and get an outside table at Fred's Mexican food right next door just before sunset and grab a margarita during happy hour and sit and watch the sunset. It was a perfect way to end our days there. It was a very special trip to us and Karen's place was just the icing on the cake.

The rental is in an amazing location, just few minutes from Kamaole Beach Park II, has restaurants & general stores also at a walkable distance.As for the unit itself, the 1 bed condo was well kept and had everything we need. The management was also responsive to our questions. The unit also came with lots of beach gear like towels, chairs, cooler, toys to make a day on the beach fun and relaxing. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to stay in Kihei.

Pros: plenty of hot water, central location steps away from the beach, nice quiet patio to enjoy coffee and breakfast in the morning. Owners are quick to respond and helpful. Check-in was very easy. Cons: the maintenance of this space was clearly bare minimum. We felt a little fooled by the listing. We specifically booked this space because of the abundance of beach equipment pictured, however, once we arrived most of the equipment was broken, and some equipment listed were not available in the unit. The unit itself was quite dirty; and I want to emphasize that it is NOT because of the cleaning staff, but rather because detailed care of this space has not been maintained. It is clear that there are back to back bookings with minimal maintenance, and owners live out of state. Next time I stay in Maui, I will book at a hotel, at least there would be a front desk to complain to, rather than the complaints being put on the cleaning staff (it's not their fault). The bed needs updating, it is clearly well used, and the frame is not sturdy. Overall, I'd give the space a 2.5 out of 5 stars. There is also no blinds in the front space, so whoever sleeps on the sofa beds have no privacy. It was just myself and my husband so we did not have this issue. Overall, it did not negatively impact our time in Maui, but we were disappointed in the space and felt fooled by the listing.

Checkin check out processes were seamless. Excellent communication from host. Unit was professionally cleaned and had all the amenities for stay including kitchen ware and beach supplies. The place right across the street from beautiful kamaole beach as advertised. One suggestion for the host would be to make some closet space for people to unpack our stuff during the stay.

This was my second stay at this unit and definitely not my last! The unit is set back in the complex making for a quiet stay no road noice just the lovely birds to serenade. Conveniently located across from the pool. The unit is well equipped and has everything you need for comfortable stay. The lanai has a peaceful garden view with a peekaboo view of the ocean. Very lovely, I would highly recommend!

I want to first mention that Robert is a wonderful host! He was very responsive to our last minute needs. Our trip home was delayed , oh darn, due to weather. We had to scramble to find other accommodations. We only wish we had found this condo a week earlier. The condo is wonderful. The view of the beach at sunset was beautiful. The condo was spotless. It's completely stocked with all your cooking needs, including beach towels and chairs. The grounds are very nice and well kept. We did not get a chance to use the pool, but it looks very nice and refreshing. You are within walking distance to most of the local stores and restaurants. We do plan to visit Kihei again, and hopefully we will be able to stay here. It was wonderful!! aThconisstcThecondheverythiiisTHEiswderful.

My husband and I stayed at Bob’s again this year with our toddler and 9 month old. Our stay was just as fabulous as last year! As I said last year, the location is unbeatable and truly enhanced the quality of our trip. The sunsets from the condo were superb. This year we discovered a little path between Kam 2 and Kam 1 that overlooked a rocky area where a group of turtles hung out in the morning. We even had a couple of turtles swim past us at Kam 2. We can hardly wait to return!

We had a lovely stay. It was perfect for our needs. The location is excellent. We snorkeled at Kamaole Beach II right across the street and saw lots of fish and sea turtles. There are many walkable places to eat, get coffee, shave ice, shopping, etc. We never had trouble getting a good parking spot. The A/C was much more needed that i thought it would be, so be sure you get a place with A/C. I would absolutely stay here again, but would bring my own pillow. The ones here are very full or very flat, but I'm picky about my pillows so I won't hold it against them. Just letting you know so you can plan accordingly. Thank you so much for sharing you little piece of paradise with us! Can't wait to come back!!

This is a nice apartment in Kihei. It had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The apartment also had beach chairs, umbrella, cooler… it was comfortable and clean, good AC. The complex also had an outdoor shower for returning from the beach. Ample parking space available. Walking distance to numerous food options and restaurants, and a lovely beach right across the street. Thank you for the wonderful stay. We are so sorry for losing the keys, the host was very kind and accommodating.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: RentalMaui are excellent to deal with, they respond quickly to your inquiries,The unit 12-337 is as presented in the photos, clean and comfortable. The shower has great water pressure along with nice attachments. Unit has A/C but was not required during our stay (great trade winds on third floor). The complex is very small, giving it a boutique feel, quiet with ample parking and a nice pool. Convenient laundry close to all units and friendly staff. Oh yeah and just a few steps to a lovely beach and nice restaurants.

November 2024

Steps from the pool, more steps to a nice beach. Enjoyed having eating, gift shops, and a bus stop nearby.

November 2024

We absolutely loved our stay and the location is ideal! We had everything we needed. The only thing was the main bed was listed as a queen but it was quite a bit smaller than the queen pull out couch so it felt like a double. Not a huge issue and didn’t affect our comfortability.

November 2024

Condo is well equipped with everything you need, I appreciate the higher quality dishes, etc. Bed was comfy perhaps pillows could use an upgrade tho maybe that is just personal preference. The only thing I did not like was the fixed privacy curtain along the lanai as it obstructed the views of the ocean when sitting down. I have stayed at this complex many times in various units the location is perfect close to lots of restaurants etc and right across from a fabulous beach. I would recommend staying here!

These condos are in a perfect location, close to beach. This place was slightly cheaper as advertised, but i was no expecting the condition it was in. I have stayed at the resort in other units on about 5 occasions, However this condo is dirty, with old dirt. Just guessing based on the type of dirt, cobwebs and dust, it has not been really cleaned for over a year. By that I mean that many things clearly had not been given a wipe with a damp cloth. I told the manager right away that the place needed a deep clean - but no response. The manager did address the cockroaches in the kitchen when i complained about them. Both doors need to have their seals replaced to stop the ingress of bugs, Also, all the cabinets are made of chipboard the bases of which are all disintegrating leaving disintegrated chips on the floor in kitchen, bathroom and bedroom (every room). It is kind of weird like there was a flood that ruined the chip board but this unit is on higher ground, The owner has made a homemade cabinet to replace the island - but its not pretty. Also not pretty is the owner's attempted art work in the bathroom where there is a homemade attempt to re-do the walls with paint and plaster. It needs a new bed, pillows and sheets because the old ones smell, This should not be rented out. It is hard to know what to do when you have paid up front, Condo needs professional renovation, Gross

When we arrived, the office was closed from 12-1 but we checked in shortly after and the lady who helped was friendly and helpful. We were able to get in our room after 3pm and it was just as it was described. Everything was just as advertised. Room was clean and everything worked as advertised. Nice deck and table off on back patio outside sliding door. AC worked great for living room and master bedroom. Nice ceiling fan in living room helped circulate air. Kitchen was clean and nice. All appliances and utensils were clean. The pool wasn't anything fancy but was nice and clean, our kids enjoyed it a few evenings. The room came with a tote on the patio that had chairs, a cooler, beach toys and an umbrella. Two of the chairs were broken but the owner contacted us and replaced them the same day, very much appreciated. The location was great. Within walking distance to several stores and restaurants as well as beaches directly across the street. Parking was great and we were always able to find spaces by our unit. The only negative thing about our stay was there is quite a bit of street noise. Traffic noise was pretty common all night but we used a fan and that helped drown out some of the noise. We also had landscapers and maintenance people working right outside our room a few times around 7am. Not a dealbreaker but noticeable. Overall, very happy and would stay here again. Communication with the owner was easy and made our stay nice and pleasant. Thanks!

Karen has a wonderful unit that is a minute from the beach. Plenty of shops and activities to do within walking distance. The condo was exactly as described and a wonderful place to stay. It was very cozy and it had plenty of amenities and everything we needed for our vacation. When I return to Maui, I'll be reaching out to Karen to see if I can stay here again!

This is a wonderful condo. It had everything we needed for a perfect stay. We truly felt at home here in Maui. This is our 2nd stay in this condo. We are from Hawaii Island so we come to Maui often for a quick gateway. The condo is the perfect size. Plenty of room for my husband and I to spread out and relax. The kitchen has a great layout and was tastefully decorated. The spice cabinet had all the essentials. There was plenty of Tupperware to use for picnics. The kitchen was even stocked with plastic sandwich bags and had plenty of rolls of paper towels. Lots of cookware, plates, and glasses. Everything to make you feel right at home in beautiful Maui. The artwork in the condo was beautiful with gorgeous views of South Maui. There is ambient adjustable lighting above the artwork that creates a very relaxing atmosphere in the evening. The reclining chairs were very comfortable for my husband and I to relax and watch some TV in the evening. The TV is large with a clear picture and good sound. The couch was a nice place to sit for morning coffee as we planned out our Maui day. Everyone in the condo complex is very friendly. Having laundry on site was nice for a week’s stay. There is even detergent pads in the closet at the condo. Many nice restaurants in walking distance. Our favorite tee shirt shop is in the shopping plaza next to the condo complex. This is our go to condo when ever we are visiting Maui.
Kathy S.
October 2024

Overall, the complex is very quiet and well looked after with many trees and bushes. The condo is conveniently located a short walk across the street from Kamaole II, and right next door to a couple of restaurants. Other shopping is within easy walking distance, although a vehicle is recommended for getting groceries. There are plenty of parking spaces available. The condo is very well equipped for cooking as well as offering a multitude of items for spending time at the beach, and provides ample towels and bedding. The pool area is connected to the laundry building, and is quite large with many lounge chairs, and gazebos for those who want shade.The owners were friendly and responsive.

The location was great and Ive stayed at KKN many times. The condo was in desperate need of an upgrade. The only chair in the living room was broken and was replaced by another very old used chair after 10 days. The unit was very dirty at checkin and everything needs replacement. breplaced.
