Easy check in parking is like 18 bucks a night now so be ready. Condo had amazing view and literally everything you could need. Kitchen well equipped and beach umbrella was a must. I am partial to the kahana area and this one didnt disappoint. Unless you have small children it might be a bit tight for 4, but it was perfect for us. Ive been lots of times to this area and would do this one again. Bedroom being ocean front was important to me, and even in september you get a great wind tunnel through the condo so we really never used the air. The doors all had holders on them ro keep them open. Its the little things....

The condo had everything we needed for our stay! It was clean and comfortable and in a great location, close to everything we needed. We had an issue with the key but communication with the property manager was fast and efficient! I would definitely stay here again on our next trip to Maui!

Lovely 12th floor condo with amazing waterfront view of Molokai. We saw turtles swimming from the lanai every day. The condo is clean, comfortable and nicely updated and includes beach chairs, towels, small coolers, The in-unit washer/dryer allowed us to pack light. Would definitely stay here again!

Everything about this place made me feel like home!!! It was also very convenient to everything. The sunsets on the balcony were so beautiful. The studio was equipped with every single little thing you may need. The owner was so nice and very quick to respond to anything I asked. The complex workers were so sweet and polite. The pool was warm and relaxing. We went to Napili beach, it was a 6 minute drive. There was a little beach access in the complex too but we didn’t go in that one. I left some playing cards and Crayons, so that the next guests can create some memories, playing card games and also draw something cool about their experience. I wrote about my family’s adventure in their guest book, incase you need some pointers on your trip. I already miss being there, Hawaii was an experience I won’t ever forget! We Loved this area and studio! The washer and dryer in unit was a plus. 10 out of 10 recommend!!!! Till I see you again Hawaii!

Nice view, convenient location and great value overall. The only issue we had was the wind noise. I've talked to other residents and it seems to be an issue with most of the units in the building. A quick tip for managing the wind noise - stick a pair of flipflops between the window screen and the door so it puts the pressure on the frame and seals the gap.

Maui is paradise. Unit as advertised although I could not see 6 people occupying for any length of time. Only 2 chairs at a bar for dinner (no table) and 2 chairs at Bistro table on patio. Perfect for my 2. The difficulty was communication. I have rented from VRBO several times successfully. This experience was difficult.
I "contacted" host 1 week prior to check-in just to touch base. No response. VRBO generic info said I would receive final details 3 days before check in. 3 days before - no news. I "contacted" host again. No response. 1 day before travel "contacted" host with plea to please respond. No response. I called the condo directly. They had no record of VRBO confirmation # but said they found my name after several tries and gave me a different conf#. Later Host respond they would send info soon. awaiting check out. We traveled 15 hours on wing and prayer. We arrived. Condo desk person had no record of either conf#. Condo Mgr called at home but no help. Private rental with no records of who they might rent to. Contacted host from front desk who said an email was sent from Oracode. Frantic email search found the details needed had been sent 2 hours before check in (1:02pm day of) from some unknown (spam) address "dormakaba". Bottom line. The unit number given and door code worked. It just created unnecessary angst. I would not rent from this host again

We loved the location of the condo. We were able to spend our mornings on the lanai and look out onto the ocean and see tutles every day. The condo had an amazing cross breeze with so we didnt have to use the a/c at all.
Mike was in contact about a week prior to our stay and right before check in. Everything was as described. He also has so many extras not listed so if you happen to forget something more than likely he has it there for you.
We had an amazing stay and recommend the condo for a couple who would love to relax and have an amazing view!

We have stayed in lots of vacation rentals over the years but this unit by far has the most incredible view ! When I booked this vacation my two criteria were oceanfront view and good space. We got both and then some. My husband and I traveled with our three college age daughters . We were all comfortable and loved spending our evenings turtle watching and waiting for another amazing sunset. The only downside was that there is not a swimmable beach due to beach erosion and there is construction going on in and around the building. This just means it will be even better on the next visit. .

We traveled to Maui for a family trip to celebrate my husband's 50th and our son going to college. We had an amazing trip with memories we will never forget. This property was great. The wrap around lanai was my favorite part. Every morning we were presented with a rainbow to start the day and at night we got to enjoy the sound of the ocean waves. We did not spend a lot of time in the condo but when we returned at night we had enough seating to relax, the kitchen was stocked with all the supplies we needed. My only feedback is the welcome packet said that each bathroom came with soap but we did not have soap for the shower and you do need to supply your own laundry detergent. Luckily, there is a great market right across the street.
The location was perfect for us. We spent a lot of time up north around D.T. Fleming beach and visited a lot of the restaurants around the Ritz Carlton.
This property would be amazing in the winter during whale season. We would definitely come back.

We enjoyed our stay. The only issues were that the AC broke down several times, and one night we went to sleep sweating with 81+ temp inside. The AC is a community AC, and won't cool to below 76. The WiFi also sometimes cuts out. It looks like that was a building issue as well. The washing machine smelled like mold, and we reported it. Someone came to sanitize it, but it still smelled of mold afterward. But, fortunately, our clothing still smelled okay after washing. The last issue is that the master bathroom appears to be breeding fruit flies. I killed a dozen in that bathroom. I think they are aware of the issue, as there were fruit fly sticky pads in that room. Otherwise, it's a very nice unit. The complex is aging, but nice. It does appear that they try to keep it up. The condo itself has great views. The wrap around balcony is very nice. The double bedroom is great too. We slept only 3 there and it was very comfortable.

We’ve done numerous trips to Maui and like to try out different places. This place is definitely one we will come back to. It was spacious, clean, and had all the amenities one would need. The pool was nice and warm and the beach was nice to take a dip in. It was also close to restaurants and shopping.

Overall a great stay. There were AC issues but I still gave 5 stars. The unit was amazingly stocked. Communication was always extremely quick. You can't beat the views and the coffee and water available downstairs were a bonus. Four 50 something year old women had a great time!!

Couple small issues. Nothing serious.
Front door is finicky. Doesn't want to open on occasion.
Everything was very clean. Except for the bathroom wall behind the door. Long black hairs stuck to the wall. Im bald. Definitely not mine.
Really enjoyed my stay. I would most definitely stay here again.
Thank you for the nice accommodations

The condo is super well situated with view and access to ocean and near very nice beaches. It is outdated a little except bathroom and kitchen. View from the deck very nice. For the price, some amenities could be better.
The beds are not too conformable, the oven is not working very well with no fans. There is not enough pillows for the pull out couch.

We stayed here with our three teen boys and we all had a fantastic time. Mike provided great advice and instructions. The condo was well equipped and had beautiful views - morning coffee on the balcony watching the sea turtles was relaxing. We could access the beach from a small walkway beside the pool. We stopped at Costco on the way down - the Royal Kahana has 5 large bbqs out back and we used them ! The Beach House, Dollie’s Pub (pizza) and China Boat are all great places within walking distance to eat. Hot complimentary coffee was served downstairs every morning. All staff were very pleasant. The condo has snorkel gear and beach chairs and towels, and after time at the beach, we were in the pool before heading back up to our room. We’d definitely stay here again. Thanks for sharing your beautiful condo !

The Royal Kahana is my go to when I’m in Maui. The location is perfect as it is close to beaches, shopping centers, restaurants, grocery stores with a local vibe. The room itself was well kept and clean. Although the building was going through construction noise did not seem to bother as most of the time I was outdoors at the beach in front of the island. Unfortunately I arrived to no hot water for 3 nights. I sent the host a message and she responded right away unaware of the problem with little that she can do. The staff in the condominium were pleasant but also had no info on when the repair would occur given that the part was ordered from the main. I had to keep reminding myself that it is an island which can have limited resources on parts needed for the repairs. Overall I still love this building and would stay here again.

We loved our stay at Royal Kahana! The unit, the balcony, the pool area, the grilling area all met our expectations!! The location of this property was perfect for all the adventures we had planned. The only downside was upon check-in on Wednesday, June 26th we were notified that the hot water was out and it would likely not be fixed until that Friday. We were bummed about that having traveled a full day that day and would have loved a hot shower but we managed. The hot water was restored on Friday as they anticipated. We would definitely stay here again!!

This condo was amazing! The view from the wraparound lanai is jaw dropping. We saw great sunsets and turtles on the beach, and you can hear the peaceful sound of the waves since you’re right on the beach. Plus, the condo is so spacious we had room to spread out. With a trip to Costco it had everything we needed to make some meals there.
I wasn’t familiar with the location but we were so glad we chose Kahana. Not as isolated as and more walkable than Wailea, and close enough to everything without being crowded. Beautiful homes all around particularly to the north. Check in was a breeze.
We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay!

The condo was very clean. There was great art work and memorabilia in the condo. Unfortunately we ran out of hot water for a few days. They tried to fix it, but had wait for parts to come from CA. We luckily got a hot shower on the last day. They were also doing construction on the roof for a few days, but that's not the condo owner's fault. Everything else was GREAT!

We only have nice things to say about our stay at David and Nancy's condo. The condo was cozy and had an updated kitchen . We were very comfortable in every room. We had spectacular views and were close enough to the ocean to be lulled to sleep by the sounds of the waves at night. I could spot sea turtles from our lanai daily and rainbows after a rain. Even though we booked through Vrbo, the staff at the condo were incredibly nice and helpful. There was a concierge on the property that helped us daily. The pool was fantastic and the cute food truck by the pool was super fun.
The beach was beautiful and great for snorkeling.
We will definitely try and stay there again for our next visit.

The unit itself was clean and had a great view of ocean. AC could never get below 70. Shower could use a better shower head, water just falls out instead of directed spray.
The building has ongoing maintenance so it was loud during the day with work going on. The parking was fine, $18/night. The pool was nice except no one at the property seemed to take care of it. Debris in the pool everyday. There is a very small beach area so if you are looking for a beach this may not be your spot. If beach isn't a big deal everything else was fine.

June 2024
The overall stay was pretty much as we expected; the pictures and descriptions in the VRBO listing were right on. The views from the rooms and balcony were fantastic. The bed king size bed was very comfortable. We liked the large shower, which was nicer that the shower/tub combo the we had in a similar unit on a previous visit. The kitchen was also well stocked, only missing a whisk.
The place was getting a little tired; a fresh coat of paint and some other updating could help The only other weakness was the air conditioning. It didn’t cool the place on our first day of the visit after the place was closed. It didn’t really affect our visit since it really didn’t get too hot and the breezes kept the place perfect. I’m not sure how it would be during warmer weather.

This condo is a gem. Very clean, nice balcony and view, and the best stocked rental we have ever stayed in. If you’re looking for spacious accommodations, this is not for you. However, if you’re looking for a lovely place to hang your hat while you tour this enchanting island, this is for you. Owner was excellent to work with. A couple of nice places to eat that you can walk to. A handy water dispensing machine in the lobby to fill you personal thermos with cold fresh water. Plus a drive-through McDonald’s nearby where you can pick up your tropical iced tea, only served in the islands, to start your day. 😊
