About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire condo to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

1206 The Palms-Wailea. Owner Direct. Car available. The reviews say it all!

Hyundai Santa Fe with room for five is made available to guests through Turo for $40-$60 a day. If you are interested, let us know.

DIRECT TO ROOM CHECK-IN: At 1206 The Palms, you go directly to your private condo without ever needing to check in. The same is true upon check-out. 1206 The Palms has a private entrance and stairway, and we do not share an entry area with any other unit.

NOW THE FUN STUFF: The reviews say it all. One of the finest vacation rentals on Maui, this condo is situated in the coveted inner courtyard of the renowned Palms at Wailea. We strive to provide everything you need. Travel light, as we provide most of what you need while offering excellent access to all of Maui and its best beaches.

Location, location, location - Centrally located within the Wailea resort area, enjoy this almost 1,200 sf FULLY air-conditioned inner courtyard condo with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a gourmet kitchen, and a private outdoor lanai that is only a 1-minute drive or 5-minute walk from world-famous beaches and snorkeling. Our favorite daily activity is walking the two-mile coastal path in Wailea, which also borders world-class resorts like the Grand Wailea and Four Seasons. There is no other walking path like this on the entire island of Maui.

Located in the Wailea resort area and surrounded by upscale restaurants, hotels, shops, and golf courses, which you would expect on Maui. This condo is also just a few minutes' drive from Kihei, offering a variety of restaurants, shops, and grocery stores at all levels. This location provides excellent access to Maui and is just a 20-minute drive from the airport, as well as Costco, Target, and other major chain stores. We are happy to provide recommendations for our favorite restaurants, tourist activities, and lesser-known secluded areas of Maui.
Did we mention location, location, location? Within the resort, 1206 The Palms is situated on the sought-after inner courtyard and offers direct views of the large landscaped lawn, garden, and meandering creek, with vistas of the mountains, the beautiful grounds for which The Palms is known, and a slight glimpse of the ocean from the private 300-square-foot lanai. There is nothing like waking up at dawn and enjoying your favorite morning drink while watching the sunrise over the mountains – and then returning in the evening to watch the sunset over the ocean while enjoying your favorite evening drink! A short one-minute walk along the stream and through the gardens brings you to the pool, Jacuzzi, and resort amenities, but ensures that the unit is not too close to the pool noise.

Do you want to entertain? This unit comes with a fully furnished kitchen that serves up to twelve and an Insta-hot, featuring filtered cold and hot water. No kitchen is complete without a quality coffee maker that won't disappoint. Grind your own Kona coffee beans using the coffee grinder we provide, and utilize the Bialetti coffee maker, which comes with a built-in coffee filter. With the outdoor wet bar and pass-through sliding window wall connecting the kitchen to the lanai, the outdoor space and the kitchen blend seamlessly. The lanai features a covered section that includes an outdoor dining table and chairs, as well as an open-air family room-style seating area, allowing you to bask in the beautiful sunshine that this dry side of Maui is known for.

Visiting the pool and beach is a must, and we provide all the essentials so that you can travel light. Four Tommy Bahama beach chairs, six large beach towels, multiple coolers, a beach umbrella (3 currently), and, for the more adventurous, boogie boards.

Want to enjoy the incredible views and whale watching that Maui has to offer? We hope so. We provide four pairs of binoculars. Now, everyone in your party (no more kids arguing) can have binoculars when they want them. And perhaps you are not entirely sure what you want to do. We enjoy helping people plan their trips.

Open the sliding glass wall and join the family and dining room to the lanai and outdoor wet bar. Or watch the new 65" 4K TV that floats on the wall so that it can be seen from the family room, kitchen, and lanai if desired. Each bedroom features a flat-screen TV with a built-in DVD player. And every TV is equipped with ROKU's, making them all smart TVs. You will have access to YouTube TV, Hulu, MLB TV, and loads of free TV and movie channels that you can record, pause, and rewind. You are also free to access your own Netflix, Prime, and other smart TV apps.

Need to get a little work done, play online, or print your boarding passes? Free Wifi is included, and we also have a small laptop location that has a direct connection to high-speed wired internet access, an HP laser printer, and two USB wall charging plugs.

Looking for peace and quiet – this second-floor unit ensures there will be no noise from someone staying above you, and the inner courtyard keeps you far away from traffic and parking lot noise. While many of the condos at The Palms feature sliding louvered doors that allow noise to pass between the family room and guest bedroom, this unit has been upgraded to provide two fully private and quiet bedrooms.

The master suite features large windows, the size of sliding doors, that open entirely, providing views of the grounds, mountains, and ocean. The master bath is fully remodeled and is a one-of-a-kind bath that rivals any. A granite walk-in shower with etched glass doors and a private toilet area – this bathroom also includes a custom-built closet system, in-room safe, custom cabinets with granite counters, and a makeup area. We even provide a scale for those of you who are brave enough to weigh yourself while on vacation. But we recommend against it.

The guest bedroom features two twin beds (or can be converted to a king (let us know the setup you prefer and we will accomodate you) with a provided conversion kit), a custom closet system, a large window wall, and access to the hall bath, which matches the quality of the master bath. Granite counters and a walk-in granite shower with custom etched glass doors make for a unique guest bathroom.

Wanting to bring small children or infants with you, we make that easy as well. We offer plastic dishes, cups, and utensils designed explicitly for children. And for infants, we also provide a Graco Pack' n Play Reversible Napper and Changer Playard.

Our goal is to make your visit easy, enjoyable, cost-effective, and as carefree as possible. We want you to travel light and have everything you need. We provide hand soap, a blow dryer, and a curling iron for both bathrooms. The washer and dryer are full-size and include all the soap and dryer sheets that you will need for your visit. We provide hand and dish soap, dishwasher detergent, and kitchen towels for your entire stay, not just a "starter pack" as offered by other places. Have you ever stayed somewhere and wondered just how clean things are? All linens are white, ensuring they are clean, and multiple sets of each are provided.

Regardless of how you look at it, this unit provides everything you need for a cost-effective, clean, and carefree vacation. Fully air-conditioned, built-in entertainment features, a gourmet kitchen, an outdoor private lanai with wet bar, and fully stocked with everything you should need for your stay in Maui – you won't find another location that provides the amenities of this unit. Mahalo!

This condo was perfect for our family’s week long stay on Maui. It was stocked with everything you could need, from kitchen, supplies, beach, chairs, umbrellas, snorkel gear, boogie boards, and toiletries. We felt very fortunate to have found such a great place. The Truro pick up/drop off process was also very smooth and easy. Highly recommend everything about this rental.

Beautiful condo, nicely decorated, pretty grounds, great location and lovely hosts.

One of the nicest rentals I have stayed in any where; lovely furniture, very well appointed in the kitchen, bathrooms and beach supplies. The grounds and pool are pretty and well kept. A peaceful and relaxing place. Good location to explore Wailea area and easy to access the main highway to explore the whole island. The owners were very responsive, couldn’t have been any more helpful and friendly. We would definitely recommend the condo to friends and would rent again.

Their insights on how to make the most of the home and local spots for delicious eats (Mai Tais & acai bowls) and sightseeing were most appreciated.

Clean, quiet updated huge balcony (lanai) with all you need

A corner top floor unit, very quiet, private, clean, updated furniture. Very beautiful inside and view outside is pretty, balcony (lanai) is huge with nice furniture, bbq and sink! Was sooo relaxing ! Everything is labeled and easy to find, owners very easy to communicate with! Few mins drive to everything. Very helpful with suggestions of things to do and where to go. The only non-perfect thing was while it has AC...we had to turn the units on when we got there and it took a while to "cool it down" once it did, it felt comfortable and worked awesome! We would stay here again, and everything else was perfect about this place, as described in the ad!!

This place doesn't disappoint

Being our first time traveling with our two small children (ages 1 and 3) finding a condo with all the amenities of home was a must for us. Working with John was an absolute pleasure. He is truly the perfect host and was extremely helpful before, during and after our stay. He was informative and very responsive, answering all my questions before we arrived and checking in with us several times after arrival. He really takes pride in his place and it shows. We had a lot of activities planned with our kids during our stay so we didn't stay much at the condo but found it to have everything we needed while we were there. One thing I really loved about the place was how close the designated parking space is to the condo. Made for easy access coming and going with the kids. We also really enjoyed the large dining table on the patio. We were able to eat our meals outside which the kids loved and made cleanup easy for us. All and all a fantastic place in a great location.

Noice!!

We stayed in two separate Palms condos during our week in Wailea. This was our favorite by far. Things we liked: Prime inner “courtyard” location. Sunny, open, lanai views of pool and gardens. Our second condo did not have this location and we missed that. It is a huge difference. Cleanliness! Everything labeled and neat. The kitchen has everything and everything has a label. My wife loved this. Bathroom has makeup towels, cu-tips, shower gel, etc. Great attention to detail. Shower is nice and powerful. Bathrooms are stunning. We want the sectional couch. So comfortable. If we could have fit it in our checked luggage, we would have taken it. Master bed was super plush. Great sleep. For football - giant high def TV. Finally, all of the chairs and umbrellas from the condo that we took to the beach were in top shape. Too many other condos often forget the small things. Would definitely stay again!! We loved it!!

The PERFECT Vacation

I have taken a bit of time to prepare this review - because I am afraid of giving John's Palms property too awesome of a review and then never being able to rent here again because everyone will rent this property!! But yes, my family and I had the best vacation ever at the Palms and we are deeply glad we chose this property. The owner John was awesome to work with - all of his suggestions and feedback on things to do were spot on. His place is perfect - and I mean perfect. It has everything, beach chairs, umbrellas, towels, and being able to rent his car was terrific for us. The beds were comfortable, and his place is very clean and is located in a perfect place in Wailea. The Kitchen is all modern, the living room furniture was comfortable, everything was perfect at this location. You literally feel like you are in a tropical Oasis! Literally 10 minutes to walk to the beach from the condo and just a few minutes by car from the shoppes. We mostly kept the windows open and enjoyed the trade wind breeze while we were there and I will never forget the stars on the lanai in the evenings. I really loved staying in Wailea - central to everything and lots of residents in the area. John's Palms IS THE PERFECT place to stay - you cannot go wrong - I wish I could have given this a full 10 star rating (VRBO only allow 5 stars!)- thats how pleased we were with the condo, the owner, the location, and all of the amenities. I have already talked to John about renting next year - so please don't take all of the weeks in 2023! Thank you John and Shae for letting us rent your place at the Palms - simply the best vacation we have ever taken! We will be back! ~Rick Davis and Family PS: I am a nerd so I sent John a bunch of pictures during our stay - he was kind enough to indulge me in our family adventure!

Fantastic stay at 1206 the Palms

Our family of 4 had a great stay at 1206. This was our first visit to Maui, and Wailea was a wonderful jumping off point for everything we wanted to do. The condo had everything we needed for our stay and lots of nice extras. The beach towels, cooler, boogie boards, yoga mat, and filtered fridge water made our stay easy and relaxing. Organization, directions, suggestions and communication with John and Shae were excellent. The condo was very clean and nicely decorated. I’d like to come back to Maui and I’d definitely stay here again. Christine
