This is our 2nd time booking this condo and it never disappoints! The location is perfect, close to food trucks, grocery stores, restaurants, coffee shops, etc. the condo is spacious, clean, and fully stocked with everything you need to include beach chairs, umbrellas, binoculars, snorkel gear, coffee, and more. We couldn’t be more pleased. The bed is quite firm/hard but I’d prefer that over a super soft worn out bed anyway. The balcony of this condo was my absolute favorite place to be.

WOW!! This unit was more than what we expected. The view from all the rooms was spectacular. The photos should be updated on VRBO. My husband and I were in Maui to celebrate our 24th wedding anniversary. We were so excited when we arrived at the unit and saw how nice it was. It was clean and well-stocked with everything we needed. The beach and resorts were a short walk away. We are already planning our next trip to Maui 2025 and will be booking this unit again!

I traveled to Maui for work and found this place and so happy I did. The condo is beautiful, comfortable beds and sitting spaces in the living room and patio. The views are exactly what are described and are stunning and the beach was right by the condo. It was amazing. Sandy was wonderful to work with and looking forward to booking again when I come back to Maui for my next trip.

Located at the beginning of the beach boardwalk. Walking distance to everthing in Kaanapali. Opened the doors at night and listened to the waves crash 50ft from our resort. No better spot for the money in Maui. Clean, updated, and well appointed.2nd time at Mahana and will return. 2nd time

Great stay at this location! Many other ABnb/VRBO units in this particular corner of Kaanapali. Unit has everything you need and some- a pool, hot tub, beach towel (available at the pool) beach front, waves, etc! Would definitely stay here again.

When I first saw this listing, I thought that there was no way the views or descriptions could be reality. I was proved so wrong after our stay here after being blown away by the incredible oceanfront scenery in this clean, comfortable, and well-equipped rental. My wife and I had an incredible honeymoon here, enjoying our daily breakfasts on the Lanai with frequent turtle sightings, easy access to the beach and pool, delicious foods from the nearby food trucks, and breathtaking nightly sunsets over the beach. Highly recommend staying here!

Get your camera ready every night because, unless you go up Haleakala, you won't see better sunsets than from this balcony!

This was my third stay at this condo and I can't imagine wanting to stay anywhere different when visiting Maui. Somehow always feels like home.

My wife and I flew to Maui for a little getaway, since we haven’t in years, to celebrate our 20th anniversary. We renewed our vows on the 30th and with the sunset behind us, it was amazing. The property had everything and more. Towering above the beach you could see forever!! Very roomy and comfortable. We watched turtles swim by from the lanai. Beds were comfortable and the shower is enormous!!! Really looking at booking again

Furniture was dated and worn but clean. Well stocked kitchen but oven did not work and this was a big problem for our plans to cook. Pool and spa were wonderful.

The condo was beautiful, comfortable and as described. It’s in a gorgeous setting directly on the ocean and it was lovely to listen to the waves and fun to watch the surfers and turtles. We enjoyed all the condo amenities including the pool and having a washer and dryer available in the condo was very much appreciated. The only thing that surprised us was we had to purchase paper products (paper towel and toilet paper) once the small initial supply was depleted. It would have been helpful to include that detail in the VRBO description so we knew that up front. Overall, we had a great time In a gorgeous condo and stunning location.

My favorite part was listening to the ocean waves from the room. The room is very spacious and clean. We were lacking some shampoo and conditioner amenities and it took a day or so to get it but The condo was overall very nice, spacious, walking location to a lot of restaurants. Is located right on the walking beach path. We did not use the pool because it was quite small, there was other things to do like going into the ocean.

The condo was just as advertised - beautiful oceanfront location, comfortable furnishings, and perfect for a couple. Although we didn't cook much, everything was provided. Great base for exploring the west side of Maui. Highly recommend this listing!

This was a truly excellent property that surpassed our expectations. We were impressed with the attention to detail on provision of amenities for our arrival and the cleanliness throughout. The property has a full 270 degree ocean view and is enhanced by the AC throughout the condo. having evenings on the balcony watching the sunset were especially fun. We will definitely be planning another visit.

Overall very good, the unit itself long in the tooth. Kitchen stove, fridge and cooking pots pans etc a disaster. Living room furniture old cushions need a redo and patio furniture while possibly new very cheap. Would not stay in the unit again.

October 2024

We absolutely loved this property! From the amazing views to the location central to great snorkeling we were 100% thrilled and we will be back! We saw surfers, turtles, rays, and even a couple of sharks right from the lanai.

Condo has a wonderful few we saw stingrays and turtles almost everyday! You are in prime location for the sunset every night.

My husband and I loved our stay at this property! Waking up each morning to the crystal blue ocean and falling asleep to the sound of the waves was a dream. We spent hours watching the sea turtles from our lanai and had prime sunset views. There is great snorkeling and restaurants/cafes within walking distance. Lesa made my husbands birthday unforgettable by accommodating a special request. Thank you for a great stay!

No words can describe our experience at this place! Visiting Maui can't be anything but epic, however the stay can always add more credits. Alicia was nice, friendly, communicative and very generous to accommodate some requests we made. If you are going for anniversary or honeymoon, this place will never disappoint you!! Mahalo Alicia!!!

Crystal and Jim's gorgeous and very comfortable beachfront condo exceeded expectations. The location is ideal...close to all action, but private and peaceful. The unit was beautifully prepared for our arrival, and the entire process of checking in was easy and very pleasurable. Crystal was gracious and friendly, and was focused on the quality of our stay. Truly amazing VRBO hosts!

We have stayed at the Mahana for 20 plus years. This is by far one of the nicest units we have ever stayed in. Would definitely give it 10/10 and highly recommend. Looking to go back in the Spring and Fall 2025 and will definitely stay in this unit.

First impressions, very nice. Enjoyed our morning coffee out on the lanai watching the sunrise with the beautiful ever-present cloud formations and seeing turtles floating just offshore. Location was a bit north of the bustling restaurant/shop area, but the boardwalk was just steps from the building to enjoy morning or evening walks. Comfy bed and loved the sun-shades, really helped with the afternoon sun/heat. We did have some issues, but property manager was quick to respond as well as take care of the issues.

This place is incredible. We spent much of our time just staring at the sea turtles in the surf! The whole condo is gorgeous and had everything we needed. Parking is ample and very close. Elevator was very close. Pool and BBQ area were spotless. This place is incredible. Walk to Dukes for a drink or meals. Grocery store across the street. The condo has everything you need and is stunning. You won’t regret staying here. You will want to come back, just like we do!!! Thanks for having us!!!

We visited Maui for first time and stayed in this beautiful condo , right on the ocean , beach . Breathtaking view of pacific with Lanai and Molokai island from the living area , balcony . Beautifully decorated home. Balcony has a nice dining table to have breakfast, sit there for gorgeous sunset with a glass of drink or tea. Kitchen is well stocked with nice dinnerwares , except silverwares , those needs replaced. I would prefer a more comfortable mattress, that’s about it. They have enough beach towel , cooler , beach chairs , everything is ready for a great day either at beach or drive to other beaches around the island. Very convenient restaurant next door or food truck at close by location for dinner.
