Liked the location to the pool and beach!

Private, quaint, clean and perfect amenities. All we had to do was buy a few groceries and owners of 434 had all we needed for a week from coffee filters to a clutch cooler and beach chairs. Water was hot, bed comfy, air conditioning/fans were perfect and having a dish washer and clothes washes and dryer was clutch. The views with the huge sliding doors were all i needed to see though. Everything else was a bonus. 100% staying here again.

Very private ground floor unit. This is truly beachfront. The ocean is 50 feet from the unit and because of the grassy ridge it remains very private but ocean still very accessible.

The property is well-kept and clean. The grounds of the resort are kept well cleaned every morning. The pool is just an elevator ride away, as well as the water. Hard to initially find the exact condo due to there being multiple buildings, and a hidden elevator. In walking distance to an ABC store, as well as the top, shaved ice place in Maui. Will definitely be booking this place again.

We came to Maui to celebrate our 25th Anniversary and it was a little piece of heaven. The condo was extremely clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. The views are AMAZING and the sunsets were perfect for our trip. We did various tours… Road to Hana, Sunset Dinner Cruise, Maui Nui Luau, Island hopped to tour Pearl Harbor, and visited several beautiful beaches. Thank you Doreen for sharing your little piece of heaven with visitors. -The Janders from Texas

This place was amazing. We arrived 4 hrs early. I would’ve booked the day before if I would have known the check in time was 4pm. The pull out couch needs a new mattress. All in all 💯😊❤️.

The condo was lovely. We enjoyed the beach access, the pool was also great. The resort is centrally located with easy access to everything. The condo was clean, beds were comfortable (we would have loved some extra actual blankets, not comforters) and the price was great! I would reccomend.

Location is great, it is right on the beach and shaved ice, bakery and ABC convenience store are within a few minutes walk. The property grounds and facilities are very clean, parking is easy, pool and bbq area are great. The location is central to anywhere you need to drive to. The condo itself is very clean, bed was comfortable, kitchen had all amenities needed and overall it is a very nice home.

My wife and I had a wonderful stay at Mike’s penthouse. From the time we made the reservation until the time we checked out was a five-star experience. The penthouse came with all the necessities. There are literally too many to name. But I will name a few. They provided beach, chairs, umbrella, coolers, and boogie boards. The kitchen had every utensil, coffee, maker, blender, herbs, and seasonings and etc. The bed was very comfortable, the central cooling was excellent. There were plenty of towels along with beach towels. The washer and dryer was amazing, Mike even provided washer pods. When we checked in, we were greeted with several surprise treats. When we checked out, we were also greeted with a very nice departure gift. Every time I text Mike always responded properly. The grounds were clean, the pool was clean and well-maintained. We will definitely book with Mike again. When you book with Mike, do it with confidence, you are making a great choice. I’m sure I left Other wonderful amenities out. But there are just too many to list. Mahalo Mike until next time.

Sugar Beach Resort is a hidden gem in Kihei.. location central to everything, more low key than other resorts. Pool and surroundings well kept. Ocean front 3rd floor condo

September 2024

We had a fabulous stay in Maui and highly recommend Kevin’s condo. The view truly cannot be beat. The condo is fully stocked, clean, and comfortable. This was our first time in Maui and we loved how central staying in Sugar Beach was to other parts of the island. The area is low key and less busy than other places we visited on the island. We loved being able to walk to Sugar Beach Bakery and the farmer’s market just down the beach. We also recommend the snorkel rental place and sandwich shop/bar that is one site. Very friendly! It was quite windy in the afternoons when we were there (partially due to nearby tropical storms that luckily didn’t really impact us), but the mornings on the beach were lovely and the pool and grounds were very well kept. Thanks for a wonderful retirement celebration!

Sugar Beach Resort was the perfect central location for our trip. Close to amenities, beach is beautiful for walking, and winds keep you cool during the day. Unit was clean, communication from Megan was excellent and everything was as expected. Condo is thoughtfully stocked and everything we could think of was there. Only issue was the resort hot tub was very lukewarm. Not the owner’s fault though!! We would recommend to anyone.
Alexandra L.
September 2024

The view of the beach was absolutely breathtaking and our condo was perfect for us. It was clean and had everything we needed. Just the right amount of space, and the resort itself is in a great location. We never had to drive too long to get anywhere we needed. The AC in the living room worked really well, but even with the ceiling fan going in the bedroom, the rest of the condo was uncomfortably warm at times. That was the only downside and everything else was wonderful. :) All in all, our stay was amazing and it was way more difficult to leave than I was expecting. We hope to visit again in the future!!

We loved this location and the premises. We would return to this unit again, if we knew that the sliding door has been replaced. It is warped and does not close. It is obvious it has been repaired many times, with screws pulled out and no longer able to put them in. We did contact Vacasa and they were very responsive. However, someone came to fix it, but glue on it since the screws no longer work, and left with even clamping it together for the glue to dry. It pulled off the first time we opened the door. The door has to be closed in order the AC to work. Every time we shut it we had to work on getting it shut far enough.

Beautiful views, easy access to the beach. It was really close to shopping, restaurants and activities. The unit was clean and had all the amenities we needed. Sorry we had to cut our trip short to get out before another hurricane hit. Great place to stay!!

Beautiful location right on the beach. Loved sitting on the balcony listening to the waves. The unit is just as advertised and more. Will return.

The view was amazing, nice pool and easy access to beach. I want to add best little sandwich cafe on site. Reasonable and very good food.

This was an outstanding property that was exactly like depicted.
Dean W.
September 2024

This unit was right on the beach. There is a heated community pool and hot tub, open nightly till 9:30pm. Nice appliances (no toaster). The sofa bed was ok. The master bedroom had a very comfortable bed. Beach towels are available but not other beach gear. Washer and dryer worked great. They spray for bugs so you may find tiny dead brown roaches on the floor.
Jennifer N.

The unit we used is updated and all key features worked well. The view from the lanai is spectacular. The AC worked very well. We enjoyed the hot tub and the pool. Having miles of sandy beach to explore is a big plus.
Richard L.
September 2024

Outstanding! The views were spectacular and we loved hearing the waves crashing on the beach. The condo was clean, well-equipped and perfect for two people. The beach and pool were steps away from the building. Everything was nice and quiet — practically had the beach to ourselves. We hope to return!

This condo was the perfect spot for us. Having our coffee every morning on the balcony watching the waves and turtles is going to be hard to beat. The condo has everything you need and is in a great location.

We had a great time, walking along the beach. My husband and I would go for a walk to the right or to the left for about half an hour to 45 minutes and then back.

The only thing that could’ve been better is it would’ve been great to have Salt and pepper for cooking or dining.

We have stayed in different units of sugar beach resort over the years and this rates as one of the nicest. Great view, excellent amenities, covered parking, and walk out access to the pool and the beach. Perfect for a week away!

This is our second time staying at Sugar Beach. The apartment has everything we needed. The kids had a great time in the swimming pool. It's very convenient, close to the ABC store, McDonald's, Costco, Zen BBQ, Target, and more.

Overall was extremely happy, requesting a non shoe household the floors were way too dirty. Half a roll of paper towels was in sufficient.

August 2024

Mike and Brenda are the best hosts I have ever worked with. They genuinely care about their guests and make sure that guests are well taken care of. Condo is right on the beach and located about in the middle of Maui. . North tip of Maui “Nakalele Blowhole” about 30 miles. Hana 57 miles. Other places we liked. Best ice cream “Lappert’s” at The Shops at Wailea 8 miles. Kihei Kalama Village 6 miles, also called “Bermuda Triangle” by locals for its nightlife scene, & restaurants, there are bunch of food trucks there too. Best shave ice - Ululani Shave Ice walking distance.
