Perfect! This studio is on the ocean, the sounds of waves crashing is amazing. The unit is clean! Close to food trucks, boardwalk and Whalers Village. We loved our studio unit.

Lisa’s property at Kaanapali Shores was great! The unit had everything we needed for a family vacation. The resort is awesome with a great pool, friendly environment, quick access to the beach and more! We would easily book with Lisa again!!

You cannot go wrong staying here. The decor and ambiance inside was so welcoming and beautiful. The views were spectacular. Do yourself a favor and book this spot. It will definitely be our go to when staying in Maui. It was our first time in Hawaii and everything was smooth from the start. Love, love, love it here!

My partner and I truly enjoyed our stay in this unit. The views of the coast line up to Kapalua, the neighboring islands and the turtles swimming around were all fantastic to see while drinking coffee and having dinner on the lanai. Bring your snorkel gear because right out front of the building there is a lot to see. Highly recommend staying here.

The condo itself was clean, well kept and equipped. The view was spectacular. Only complaints we had were whistling from the wind due to poorly sealed doors and windows but have nothing to compare it to so that may be a regional thing. Beach access from the property was a little sketchy because you had to negotiate some rocks, but there were plenty of other options close by.

As described the unit was oceanfront. A highlight of our trip was being able to watch the beautiful sunset over the ocean each night. The unit had a comfortable bed and a full kitchen. It was a five minute walk to a wonderful beach. It is within walking distance to a grocery store, restaurants and food trucks. It was less than two miles to Whalers Village where we had dinner on multiple occasions as well as being able to catch a sunset cruise. The hosts were always responsive to questions in under an hour. Truly a five star stay!!!

Our stay was nothing short of amazing! We felt so welcomed with a beautiful sunset our first night we stayed and they continued throughout the week! Very cute and thought the condo came with a well stocked kitchen. Located within short walking distance of Honoapiilani Food Truck Park, which was tasty and made for an easy dinner.

We stayed for 10 days and swam and snorkeled right out the lanai door! Sunsets were spectacular and mornings serene. Great location, fully equipped with everything you need for a great vacation! We will for sure be back!

Pictures do not do this unit justice. Corner unit with windows that open all the way up to listen to loud, roaring waves and to see numerous turtles swimming by was indescribable. Definitely will be staying here again!

Neal’s place was amazing, my husband and I had a very relaxing stay, with a gorgeous view (and the sound of waves right outside our window), the location was unbeatable, we visited 4 beaches during the 4 days we stayed, and all the beaches were 10-15 min away by car, the area has everything you’d need (a food truck park, cafes and restaurants, grocery stores), and the unit is well-stocked with everyday appliances. Above all, Neal was a big help, and went above and beyond in helping us with an accounting matter that we had, add we could not be more grateful for his open and friendly communication. Highly recommended! Many Mahalos to Neal and to his wonderful unit that made our trip to Maui that much more memorable!

This was perfect for our mother/daughter trip. It is as close to the ocean as you are going to get. The lanai with the large windows is perfect for viewing the oceans and relaxing. They have chairs, umbrella, boogie boards, etc. Their binoculars are fun to use. Perfectly located amongst several resorts and restaurants.

My husband and I stayed at Stan's place after a week in our Ka'anapali timeshare. We loved being on the ground floor and having a great view of the water. The condo had everything we needed and plenty of room. We enjoyed walking to the food truck park to pick up dinner or going to the fish market just down the road. I love walking the beach every day, and it was so easy to do from this condo. The sound of the waves helped us to go to sleep each night. We definitely plan to stay here again!

The view from this unit is the most astonishingly beautiful view I have ever experienced. Absolutely stunning. And the unit itself is very comfortable and spacious. Highly recommended!

We loved starting and ending our day hearing the waves crash into the shore. The unit was very nice. Easy walk through parking lot to the Kaanapali boardwalk. Easy access to walk to the beach if high tide, otherwise could just step off the patio to the beach. AC worked well for my allergies. King size bed was comfortable. The unit has 4 beach towels and had 4 bath towels for our stay.

We arrived at night and the check-in process was smooth. When we woke up in the morning we thought we were dreaming, stepping out onto the balcony, we were able to experience whales, sea turtles, sea birds and butterflies...in addition to the spectacular view of the crystal blue water. The accommodation had everything we needed, including beach chairs and snorkel gear. The building is outdated but the hosts have updated the majority of the unit and it has a wonderful feel and vibe to it. The location is perfect, close to the beach, local shops and restaurants.

Turtles were constantly seen cruising past. Sounds of waves crashing was a relaxing background noise. Colors of the late morning ocean waters were amazing. And all of this from the room & balcony.

Perfect duo for the couple and their guest. All the units have an excellent view of Lanai and Molokai. With whales passing and countless turtles passing by to feed. The sunsets are magnificent!
Highly recommend this place if you want a true peaceful vacation within walking distance to food groceries and gifts to bring back.

My stay at Maui Kai great. The room was not just comfortable, but truly a sanctuary overlooking the majestic ocean. Watching turtles right from the balcony was a dream come true; it added a touch of magic to our mornings and evenings. The room itself was thoughtfully equipped with all the necessities, ensuring a seamless and comfortable stay.

We saw whales from the lanai!! We were so delighted that the condo had binoculars! Grocery store, gift shop, coffee house (Java Jazz), shaved ice, food trucks were all within walking distance :)

The view was great and one day we saw so many whales we lost count. The bed was comfortable as was the furniture in the living room area. We did have a problem getting good tv reception but we didn’t watch much anyway. The internet connection was good. While it would be nice to have a washer and dryer in the unit it was just across the hall which was convenient enough. We would recommend this property to others.

This condo and the owners were just perfect! The location is private with great parking. The view is THE BEST! We saw monk seals playing right in front of our lanai, crabs on the rocks, turtles hanging out in the water because of the breaker and of course, whales...breaching, sleeping and trucking along. The bed and pillows were great and we are pretty particular about those. We cooked breakfast every morning and the glasses, plates, silverware, pans, etc. were very clean and seemed brand new. Gaspare responded to any of our questions right away. One day we walked to Whalers Village to shop and it only took 45 minutes. Parking over there is crazy so we enjoyed the exercise. I can't say enough about this condo, the lanai had everything you needed. We ate breakfast out there every morning and used the supplied binoculars to look for whales. I highly recommend!!!

The condo is beautiful! The view from the lanai is incredible. We saw whales, dolphins and turtles every day without having to leave the room. The condo is fully stocked with dishes and silverware but you will need to get any food items (including condiments like butter, ketchup, etc.). There is a foodtruck park walkable and a grocery store, Dole whip, an awesome/weird coffee shop with live jazz, L&L bbq and a lot more right across the street. We even did a massage located in the hotel next door, again walkable. Gasapare (owner) was super helpful and quick to reply to questions. Oh, and the bed was super comfy!! My mom slept on the pullout sofa so she could keep the lanai doors open and hear the waves all night. It was a remarkable experience and budget friendly. Highly recommend.

After reading the reviews, I was skeptical that this place would be up to expectations, but it actually delivered! We thought we couldn't do any better after 2 glorious weeks at Westin ORV, but Stan was able to allow us in early (no waiting around between vacation spots) and the suite was wonderful - fully stocked better than our kitchen at home! The view and surf are amazing of course, but having all the amenities AND some peace and quiet away from all the people Maui tends to bring, now THAT was worth every penny! What a fantastic way to unwind after all the site-seeing around the island! And thank you Stan for allowing us to stay a little longer at the end so we wouldn't be homeless for too long before our late night flight. My wife really didn't want to ever leave!

This unit was great for our family, and far and away its best feature is its incredible, expansive view of the ocean. It is as good in real-life as in the photo--you don't see any other buildings or people, just a huge expansive view of the ocean and the offshore islands. It is gorgeous.
When we looked down over the railing, we saw sea turtles swimming in the shallow water several times. And further out, we saw occasional whales.
The inside of the unit was also great. Kitchen was very well equipped, bedding was comfortable, and we loved that there is a table with four chairs on the lanai, as we ate out there as a family many times.
Location of this building is at the northern end of Kaanapali, so out of the very busy section. But very easy to get to/from. We liked that it was a bit away from the hubbub, and would take this view *anytime*.
Host was also responsive. Thank you for the great unit and stay!

The location was fantastic. We saw a ton of whales from the balcony (March visit), and snorkeled a 5-minute walk south. The fold-out bed was fast to set up and fold back, and was comfortable.

Enjoyed the visit! Everything was as described. We could see many whales in the distance each day from the balcony. The murphy beds were perfect for our 2 teens. We also appreciated the well stocked kitchen and beach chair, umbrella, snorkel sets, and boogie boards that were available to use. The use of towel service and pickle ball sets were a plus as well. We definitely would recommend this condo. Thanks!
