My niece and I stayed at this vacation condo in early September, and it was an unforgettable experience! The breathtaking view from the balcony was absolutely stunning, and we loved watching turtles swimming in the water below. The condo itself was very comfortable making it easy to relax and unwind. A wonderful surprise was the delicious banana bread in the welcome gift basket – such a thoughtful touch!
The upgraded balcony table, which now seats four, came in handy when family visited one day. And the washer dryer was so nice to have so we came home with everything clean. The manager was immediately available by phone to resolve a minor issue arose. Overall, we had an amazing stay and as we were leaving my niece said we had to return to this unit again! Highly recommend!

It was a pleasant stay near Maalaea harbor in this beautiful property. You could literally walk to the harbor to get all the popular cruises.
The sea facing lanai was the show stopper, you could listen to the sea from the living room and enjoy the ocean breeze.
The property has all the necessary amenities you will need to enjoy your vacation to the fullest. Rooms were clean and nicely decorated. Highly recommended.

We spent 5 days at the oceanfront condo. The condo was very clean and everything and all necessary amenities were available. Beautiful ocean view and centrally located to all the areas of the island we visited. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

When we walked in the condo we were blown away with the view. On ground floor with lawn and pool and then the ocean. We spent hours on the lanui and sitting on the lawn watching surfers and the water. We loved that it was a smaller quieter community. We were an easy 10 minute drive to more of the big beaches and restaurants and shopping

Views views views. I would stay here again without a doubt. Loved it. Host was accommodating. Towels were old and definitely need to be replaced, but that’s my biggest complaint. Thanks again

We had an amazing time staying at this condo. The property is as described in listing. Condo was clean and well supplied. Property manager was very helpful when I had questions. This is great place to stay while in Maui. The location is convenient to restaurants, grocery stores, and attractions.

Great condo centrally located in Maui with beautiful ocean view. This condo has everything you could need and more! It is truly home away from home with washer dryer dishwasher, fully equipped kitchen, lanai in front of the ocean, a/c, snorkeling equipment, beach towels, umbrella, cooler, etc. A quiet area.

Clean and super well-equipped condo in a nice, quiet area, away from the crowds of Kihei and Ka'anapali, but still walking distance to shops, restaurants, coffee, and two beaches. Property manager Barbara is helpful and responsive. We would definitely stay here again on any future visit to Maui.

Maalea is located in the center of west Maui and is a relatively small and quiet area. There are a couple of good restaurants in walking distance. The nearby ocean center is a real gem. It’s only a short drive from a number of golf courses and beautiful sandy beaches. The pool and beach front are small but well maintained. The ocean has access but is rocky and dangerous. Our condo was comfortable and well supplied. There’s a wall unit a/c located in the kitchen/living area which leaves it a bit warmer in the bedroom but fans help keep the sleeping area reasonably comfortable. Overall this is a great place to unwind.

We had a wonderful stay. Beautiful condo and the view is spectacular! Also, the location is perfect, we explored the whole island and the drive to each destination wasn’t to lengthy. The condo is in the bottom center of Maui. Also, the condo has everything you need like your at home. Lastly, the owner communication quick and helpful. Response time was quick on questions we had while we were there. Definitely would recommend and stay here again!!

Lots of amenities and a great locations. Stay was great. Only rated 4 stars because our sheets were still in the washer and needed to be run when we arrived.

Our stay was great, thank you for everything.
Only things were we could not get the WiFi to work on the tv, and we did not have the code to access the pool. No big deal on either front as I was able to use my hotspot and we were out most of the days we were in town anyway.
The place was beautiful and you were a great host. Thank you again.

The condo is even better than we expected. Everything you could possibly need in the kitchen, extra bedding, beach towels etc.
You cannot find a better location. Close to stores, restaurants, beach, etc. We watched the sunrise every morning and turtles were by the bay wall every afternoon to greet us. Memories to last a lifetime! Mahalo

We had a great stay! Love the location and the unit was very clean and well appointed. The parking garage is limited to vehicles of 6’ or less so big SUVs beware you will need to find street parking. The building was quiet and enjoyable. Would definitely stay here again!

We stayed in Kei and Miki’s condo for 40 nights. The location is great for connecting to all parts of Maui and it is located in a quiet neighbourhood. The views of the morning sunrise over Haleakala and the whales in Maalaea Bay were amazing. The unit could use a good cleaning and some general maintenance. The owners also need to update the pictures and the accuracy of the listing. Mahalo Kei and Miki for sharing your condo. We plan to return next year.

Excellent Location - Beautiful View - Off Island Owners need to start maintaining the Unit. I stayed here 4 weeks in 2023 and 10 nights in February of this year. Things that needed attention in 2023 have still not been given the maintenance that is needed. Drapes are dirty and actually have duct tape holding them on the rod - the dryer did not work in 2023 for the first 3 1/2 weeks and again this year did not work. The bathroom grout and floor caulking is really dirty and the toilet takes several flushes to do the job of taking tissue down the drain. This could be the perfect condo for 2 people to stay in year after year, but after 2 years of renting I have lost hope that necessary improvements will be made. The owner is very nice and verbally responsive, but nothing seems to change. I am so sorry to say that in 2025 I will book a different unit.

Although Milowai Resort is an older property. It is well maintained and relatively quiet. It is in a great location and central to many spots on the island.
It is within walking distance to a long strand of beach that goes on for miles as well as a short walk to the Ma’alea harbor.
The unit itself was well appointed and had an upbeat island vibe to it - especially the living area. The bedroom is next to the front entry and can get a bit noisy during late afternoon and early evening but given the overall layout of the complex, it is a feature common to most properties of this size.
The view from the living area and lanai is spectacular. Within minutes of checking in I spotted the first whale and would see many more during our 10 day stay.
Thoroughly enjoyed the stay here. It was restorative, therapeutic and mesmerizing to just be and not do…

Amazing place to stay, we saw turtles and whales every single day. We watched the boats go in and out of the harbour daily too which was entertaining. We honestly hardly ever left the condo because it was so great just to sit right on the ocean and watch everything outside!
The condo was clean, well supplied and each room having its own ensuite was fantastic. The private elevator was awesome for hauling groceries and stuff right to the condo. Jason was great to communicate with when we had a question.
We enjoyed our stay, everything was top notch!

Wonderful central location. Yes! Whales, whales, and more whales. Fun! Property is meticulous and condo was comfy. Most everything provided so all you need to do is arrive and start enjoying the weather and view.

This was PERFECT. The perfect location. The view in the morning was beautiful and we could whale watch right from the lanai. The place was clean, gorgeous interior, and exactly what we were looking for for the two couples and one single in our group. Thank you for the ease of communication and accommodating our late check out due to our flight changing on us. We would 100% stay here again.

This condo has it all! Rick has thought of everything you might need for an amazing stay at his condo. But, y’all, the views can’t be beat. We sat on the balcony and watched countless whales in the harbor every day of our trip. To get a closer look at the humpbacks, we walked over to the marina for a whale watching cruise. The shops at the marina were also great for a few meals, especially Point Break for pizza and salad. It was truly a perfect vacation.

First time in Maui and we had the best view!!! Not only can you enjoy the turtles when they come within the rocks below, but you can watch the sunrise every morning from behind Haleakalā Mountain, watch whales breach in the bay in February, and enjoy the sounds of the ocean anytime you desire. Wow! The lanai/view alone was worth the trip! The bedroom windows look out at the green lush west Maui mountain range. The unit was very clean and well maintained. Location was great. We will definitely stay here again!!

The lanai is very peaceful and relaxing in the morning and a perfect location to watch the amazing sunrises. We spotted a few whale flippers. Having binoculars was beneficial to viewing. The place was comfortable and welcoming. We enjoyed our stay there. Mahalo.

We had an amazing time on our trip and the Dolphin Penthouse was amazing. The host Jason and Kim were very helpful and responsive. The place was clean and had the amenities we needed. Amazing view from the balcony of the ocean. We saw whales every morning right from the balcony. The place is walking distance to the Aquarium, some restaurants and the General Store. The harbor is also in walking distance and would recommend booking a whale watching tour. We had an amazing time at the Penthouse, even took some beautiful wedding photos right outside the apartment on the grassy area near the ocean. Would recommend staying here to others, especially if you would like the convenience of each room having its own bathroom.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Dolphin Penthouse! The condo was beautiful and the ocean view, which included seeing humpback whales in the distance, could not be beat! It was also great being within walking distance of boat tours, restaurants, and a general store. Yet still a peaceful and quiet area. And Jason was amazingly quick at responding to all of our questions! I would definitely recommend staying here!

This is the second time I have stayed at this Property and will stay again in the future! The condo is beautiful and incredibly well equipped. The ocean view is amazing and I saw turtles and whales everyday from my lanai. Rick the manager is incredibly helpful, prompt to reply and extremely knowledgeable and kind. He was always available to help with what ever you needed. The area is very convenient to everything and the property is very quiet and private.
I would highly recommend this condo to anyone who is looking to experience an amazing Maui holiday. It definitely is a 5 star property!!

Great vacation spot.
We are all about relaxing on vacation. We had a beautiful ocean view to watch whales breaching all day. We saw turtles in the morning and evening in the shallow water. Walking distance to a beach. Walking distance to harbor for exploring by boat. Convenient location on the island to explore north or south as well. Underground parking was convenient and felt safe. Home was clean, recently remodeled, and kitchen had all you needed for cooking in. Rick was easy to contact. Check-in was simple, even after an all day travel and nighttime arrival. Two travelers were a perfect number for this place. I think any more would feel cramped. Definitely give this place a 5 star rating.

could have stayed on the Lani all day watching the boats come and go, whales splashing and turtle's feeding,

The views were amazing. Almost every day we would see turtles along the shore and whales in the bay. The location was centric for everything we wanted to do. We had a rental car so we had planned to drive to numerous sites. This property provided one parking spot in a parking garage (with roof) which was very convenient. We simply took the elevator from the basement to the 4th floor to reach the property. The property provided plenty of room for us to spread out including our dive gear. The kitchen was well appointed and included everything we needed for coffee in the mornings. Located within walking distance were restaurants, small stores, a gas station, and tours leaving the harbor next door. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

What to say that hasn't been covered by previous reviewers? This place was fantastic!
Accomodations:
There were two of us on this trip, and we slept amazingly in the King sized bed; with the sound of the ocean in the background. The condo has all of the things we needed to be able to cook when we wanted, or just to have coffee in the morning before we went out to explore.
Location:
The location is perfect for those who don't want to stay with the masses in/near a resort. There is a small shopping center, and a couple of restaurants to wander to within walking distance, but I would recommend a car to see other parts of the island as well.
View:
The view from the lanai was amazing! We got to see the sunrise each day, as well as a few turtles and even an mother humpback and her calf in the bay. It is truly a postcard-worthy view.
Host:
Steve was a great point of contact for any and all questions about the property and surrounding areas. He really cares about your experience in his condo and his care and availability for questions was just the cherry on top of this sundae.
This place is HIGHLY recommended and we would absolutely stay there in the future.
