We love this part of the beach and Kihei Akahi meets all our needs. The unit is spacious enough and has been remodeled. Everything was in good working order. This is our 4th stay at Kihei Akahi.

Close to everything and within walking distance to everything! The kitchen appliances were nice and kitchen was stocked with cooking/dishes. The bed was big and comfy. Bedding and towels and beach towels were ample. The condo itself is ok, but everything is old and outdated. The carpet is old and nasty. The blinds/curtains on windows are broken. The AC didn't work and the AC water tray is nasty, old, and broken up. The sliding door does not have properly insulation and when the wind blows the wind blows and howls through the sliding door cracks - needs to be replaced! The front screen door is old and the handle is broken, and the screen itself is ripped and very dirty. I was disappointed with the old and broken down condo.

The property was close to the Kamaole Beaches (Kamaole II right across the street). It is walking distance to many shops and dining choices close by. The studio unit was equipped with a kitchen, fridge, stove, cutlery and amenities. There was a washer and dryer right in the unit which came in very handy. It was a great condo in a great area.

Not to bad
This was an nice place to stay. The furniture was a little dated and only one AC unit in the Condo. It is extremely hot in the summer time in Maui. This would be problem a that time. It was nice for January weather the island has a good breeze at night. Convenient to different areas on the island. Will stay again on in the winter months due to no real AC unit.

I loved my stay there. The resort was very clean and the views of the ocean are awesome. The location was perfect. Easy walk to restaurants and shops and of course the beach if that's what you're into. My only complaint is that I arrived at 4:00 p.m. and the office closes at 3:30. It was a little confusing trying to find someone to help me check in. But after that all was good. I would highly recommend this hotel.

There were little bugs all over the kitchen counter, we found a large cockroach in one of our bags after sitting on the floor a couple of days. There was also left over soap globs on the shower wall from the previous occupant. The drip pan for the air conditioner wasnt large enough to cover the whole underside of the a/c, so it ended up spilling out on to the downstairs neighbor so we put a large pot under it, which seemed to help.

When we arrived at our room, we had dirty dishes next to the sink and someone's laundry in the dryer. This i can over look because we didn't pay an arm and a leg BUT this condo is for 2 people, not 2 adults and 2 teenager's. Very small! The AC did not reach to the bedroom so it was stuffy in the back and cold in the front. I would give another try if its just my husband and I

Aloha , We do apologize for the inconveniences you have encountered during your stay. A dirty room is unacceptable and we hope someone assisted you while you were here. We do also offer other properties with bigger square footage however the bedding situation in all of the one bedrooms would be the same. If you need separate beds I would recommend booking a two bedroom unit which would be a lot more comfortable for teenagers. Please let us know if we could assist you in the near future and again we do apologize for the inconveniences.

This is a great place for so many reasons. It is literally across the street from the beach and within walking distance to numerous restaurants and shops. Kihei is also a great location from which to see the rest of Maui. I loved the fact that the condo came with beach towels, a small cooler, beach umbrella and beach chairs. This was super convenient for us. The one thing that left something to be desired is the air conditioning. I am usually not overly sensitive to these things, but the condos are designed that the living rooms have a portable window A/C unit, while the bedrooms have none. The small window in the bedrooms, coupled with the fact that they open to the main hallway and the elevator, makes air movement into the room almost impossible. This means that your TV area will be cold, while your bedroom will be stifling hot. This would be easy to address, and I am surprised that it has not been. Talking to other guests made it obvious that this is a problem with more than just our unit.

Extra fan full of dust sometime worked. This was a large studio but that is all.

I love Maui
Maui is beautiful. The Condo is pretty nice but could use air conditioner units in the bedrooms as the one in the living room isn’t sufficient to cool the whole place. The pool and grill is nice and the landscaping was very pretty. Great location as there are a lot of restaurants and stores nearby. The beach is right at the end of the driveway. The doors needed tightened as they hung low and required force to shut.

Location is central to beaches, shopping and local eateries. Pool closes promptly at 9 pm which is very disappointing given the A/C in our unit was in dire straits of needing to be replaced. The unit we were in 401D was dark, dreary, and had a lumpy mattress, frayed and (yikes) stained towels, filthy furniture, dead flies on the window sills and overall in need of renovating. The unobstructed view of the beach on the balcony was this unit's only redeeming quality. Visited friends and family also staying in the complex and their units were much more modern, bright and clean. Would be nice to get pictures of the unit assigned to you prior to arrival so you have a chance to view before committing.

If I could give this place negative 5 stars, I would do it. My wife and I were planning to come here for our babymoon. The nightmare comes in the day before our flight to Hawaii. My wife and I found out that we lost the baby and sadly couldn't go to our babymoon because my wife needed the operation done right away. Our doctor gave us a doctors note to give. Day one, called Travelocity so they can get the hotel manager to cancel our reservation. The manager says to send the doctors note and said they'll review it and give us a response in 24-48 hours. Two days later without any response, called Travelocity to call them again, same exact response. We received the same response 2 more times. Finally the day before our supposed check-out date we received an email saying due to their policy they cannot give any refund. I called in a last-ditch effort. The person I spoke to was kind, patient and understanding. The sad part is from my view, she did not have any knowledge of what happened to my wife. They spent a week not giving us a response nor even trying to contact our doctor. Just ignored us until they could say the policy won't allow it which is once hey've charged your account, you have 24 hours to cancel it. If not, tough luck. So if your young, able, don't mind the AC problem and not knowing if the room would be good (from other reviews) this place is ok. But if your human, get sick, have kids, grandparents or worst expecting please, by all means, avoid this place.

Would go elsewhere because of AC
We would not come back, mainly because of the bedroom. Throughout our whole trip we did not sleep in the bedroom. We stayed on the pullout sofa bed. Simply put, the bedroom felt like a sauna. There was absolutely no air running through the bedroom or the bathroom. Windows were so high to reach, had to call housekeeping to come and open it. It helped sliiightly. However it was still too hot. Plus, the bedroom was right in front of the elevator so we could hear EVERYTHING. How annoying. The fan in the room didn’t do much either. Why would we pay for the bedroom and not sleep in it? We’d like our money back. The AC was near the balcony and really only helped cool down a small perimeter around it. The drip pan was doable, we had to change it maybe twice a day. The water from the AC filled it up fast. Towels were kind of old and dirty as well. We kept getting new bites- not sure if there’s bed bugs. Everything else was okay. Location was great, kitchen was nice. In unit laundry was a plus. The pool was alright. You can’t have too much fun because of all the strict rules there.
