Return to Maili
I discovered this special place in 2017. I returned again in 2019. Shortly after that the owner passed. Though I kept looking for it to return as a rental it was not until late last year I spotted it again listed on VRBO. The new owner has changed/improved on some of the furnishings. The washer/dryer is new and because it did such a great job we now are looking for a set just like this unit has. Note: though the west side beaches have some homeless encampments these condo units have security guard service. I never was concerned. The new "landlord" is top shelf. You can't beat the view location and comfort.

Amazing condo..one of the best we've stayed at
Pictures do not do justice to this condo. The owner has great taste, and puts her heart into this place. Everything is clean, comfortable, and in great working order. There's beautiful sandy beach, a pool, parking, within steps of the condo. To top it off, we saw amazing sunsets each night. Perfection♡

Island oasis
The condo was exactly as pictured, very clean, and well-stocked with every kitchen utensil, glassware, and pots and pans one could ever need, as well as snorkeling gear, beach chairs, and a cooler. The bed was comfy. We loved sitting on the lanai every morning and evening, listening to the crashing waves that are so close. The pool looked nice, though we never got in, and the beach was literally just on the other side of the pool. The building residents were pretty quiet and very friendly, but the road nearby was a bit noisy at times. Not enough that it really bothered us, though. All in all, a lovely stay in a beautiful condo.

Condo was well equipped, clean and nice.
This is a nice condo and is well equipped including a washer and dryer! Right on the beach with a beautiful pool. The downside is that the location is not terrific. Grocery stores, fast food and restuarants although not too far away (a mile - few miles) you really cannot walk to them. Traffic is very bad most of the day and the beach is pretty much a campground for the homeless. Hawaii needs to do a better job to create affordable housing for folks. It would better for everyone and this condo would be a much nicer place to stay!

Aloha! This property was true to pictures and description. My husband and I made sure we were back every evening by 18:00, to watch the sunset at 18:20-18:30. The location was close to dining and shopping. Being on the beach was an awesome experience. This was our first trip to Hawaii and it was a great experience for both of us. Char was available when we had questions. We bought groceries and cooked several meals there. The kitchen was full stocked with cooking supplies. Char thought of everything for this property. Thank you for being available for questions when we needed you, Char! You are appreciated! Mahalo, Mike and Kristina

We could not have picked a better condo! Yes the road is noisy but not bad on the lanai or at night with the air conditioning. Best sunsets on the island! Char provides everything you need. Recommend the sunset cruise and snorkeling with Ocean Joy, the beach house 604, the swapmeet, north shore, Leonards malasadas. Dont miss the fire dancing at the Polynesian Culture Center.

Heaven on the beach
Excellent place to get away. On west side of Oahu away from crowds downtown. Generally quite except for ambulances. Only one road on this side of island and traffic noise is a slight issue. 60 or so units in the C shaped condo complex. Grocery store five miles north. Disney expensive things are just south at Ko Olina. 30 minutes to Pearl Harbor if traffic is calm. Very beautiful beach. Condo is great for two people. Clean. I would come back in a heartbeat

Relaxing Locale
Overall, the condo is splendid, as is Char to work with. Everything was easy-peasy & I couldn’t have been happier with the ease of communication, checking in & out of the condo, the amenities, etc. A couple of annoyances that can’t be helped were: the noise level of the landscaping. It’s every Friday, from 8/9a to 1p, or possibly later. And, the traffic on the highway. If you use the AC unit it blends in, but the sirens do break through. On non-landscaping days, sitting on the lanai is lovely, the view is amazing, and a great way to start each morning. We were there in the spring, which meant the ocean was too rough to enter from the beach access outside the condo building. In speaking with a resident, it’s not an issue during the summer, as it’s incredibly calm. She suggested going to the lagoons in Ko Olina as an alternative. The kitchen is well appointed, as is the bathroom. A perfect place to relax & rejuvenate, and not have to go out to eat for every meal. If you’re looking for places nearby, we enjoyed the Countryside Cafe for breakfast & The Beach House for spectacular views (especially sunset) and dinner. Given the location, you will need to drive everywhere, so a rental car is a must. A definite recommendation from us & a place we’d stay at again.

Nice Condo, isolated location
The condo itself was nice, clean, nice grounds, nice pool. The view of the ocean is great. There is a lot of road noise; the bedroom faces the highway. The beach was not swimmable. This complex is located by beach parks, some with permanent campers. We were advised not to wander around after dark. It is rather far from attractions, with rush hour traffic issues.

My wife and I took a quick trip to Hawaii. We wanted to be away from the hustle and bustle and Maili Cove was perfect. Made our own breakfasts in the mornings and hit most of the island Hotspots in our rental car during the day. Situated right in the center of the building, we had awesome evening breezes flowing through which was great. We highly recommend this property if you're looking for a similar experience

Maili getaway
We stayed in this condo for 4.5 days last week. The property was clean and probably one of the best appointed and equipped condos we've rented. It had everything you would need. The bed was confortable, the linens very nice, the shower was great, kitchen well stocked. They placed snacks and a welcome basket for our arrival. Check in was super easy and the security guy Dennis was always welcoming when we arrived late. We did not use the pool or beach area since we were there to hike and explore the island, but the grounds were well kept. It does not have a swimming beach, which most of the reviews state. I would add that the homelessness along the beach on this part of the island was a bit of a surprise. We did not feel comfortable walking along the beach or street during the evening hours. You can read about this with a quick Google search on the topic. Stores and restaurants are close enough, but not walking distance. Our favorite hidden gem was The Beach House 604 just up the street in Waianae. It is on a military base, but open to the public and sits just inside the gates. Don't worry when the MPs at the gate turn you around, just park along the street and walk through to the restaurant. Live music and great service. Spicy poke is to die for. One other thing to note is that the street in front of the condo is very, very busy. The noise and the congeted traffic were awful, but we found that to be the case everywhere on Oahu.

50th Birthday
I lived on Oahu in the early 90's and knew I didn't want to stay in a touristy area. This was perfect! The view everyday was amazing and everything you could have needed was available in the condo. We found a place a couple of miles away called The Beach House by 604. It's located on a military recreation base, but you don't have to be military. You can park at the road and have to show your driver's license to the guard shack and they will let you in. There is live music most nights, we spent 3 of our 10 nights here enjoying the outside and entertainment. We will for sure pick this condo again, if we get the opportunity to return. We were celebrating my husband's 50th birthday.

There were beach chairs, snorkeling gear, and boogie boards too. The condo felt very spacious and the sofa was extremely comfortable. We enjoyed watching the sunsets and eating breakfast on the lanai. Access to the beach was very convenient using the security gate right by the pool.
