We couldn't have been happier with our stay! The ease of check-in, parking and check-out took a lot of stress out of a first time VRBO rental experience! Kate kept in touch from the moment I made the reservation with tips and suggestions for the area and to make sure we were taken care of. The location was perfect for our home base. All the extra thoughtful touches, such as the beach accessories and binoculars were great. The unit was lovey and comfortable.10/10 all around! We look forward to coming back for another adventure!

Six star hosts.

This is oceanfront right next to sugar beach. The building is well maintained but the apartment itself is maintained at the highest possible level. Everything is there - with spares- and the furniture and fixtures are a cut above normal "rental property" standard. The hosts are simply great- communicative, attentive etc. The building was full on our visit and the pool and common areas were busy- but they can handle it. The location is great for a first visit to Maui. You are central to the day trips you NEED to make (Hana, haleakala, Makena Beach, Iao Valley hike) but you don't face the traffic nightmare of the Lahaina/ Kapalua strip. And Kihei has a plenty of restaurant options. With all that said- the best thing about it is the way it is set up and supplied. The hosts GET IT and have thought of everything.

This location is centrally located, and makes a great starting point for everything to see in Maui. The host Kate was super kind and gave us several tips, she also checked in with us to make sure everything was good. 10000% would book this again!!

Home away from home

Our vacation in Maui was great. The condo was wonderful. The view from the balcony was incredible. We had everything we needed. Everything was well labeled and easy to find. It was very clean. The beach was just a short walk away and was everything I had anticipated when imagining a beachfront condo. We saw monk seals and turtles from our deck. The harbor access was wonderful. We were so close to nice restaurants and stores. The fishing excursion we went on was a short five minute drive to the boat. Kate was a great hostess and gave us all the information we needed to have a great stay. If I ever returned to Maui, I will definitely contact her again. Once again, thank you for everything

Stunning ocean view right on the beach!

Location was outstanding with direct access to miles of pristine beach - great for morning walks! The lanai felt private and provided the most beautiful and serene view of the ocean. It’s truly located right above the beach and was so peaceful to hear the waves. There’s good snorkeling in the rocks right in front. The condo is very clean and tidy, with modern updates to the kitchen and bathrooms. Kitchen is well stocked and the community grill was perfect for easy dinners. There are plenty of beach towels and chairs/umbrella. Above all, Kate provided exceptional service with excellent communication and follow through to ensure her guests have a wonderful experience in her inviting home. I was so happy I chose to stay here. I highly recommend!

Lovely Condo in Ideal Location

We loved every moment of the stay, except getting caught in a downpour in Hana! The central location was perfect for every direction we went whether it was south for a luau, East for Hana, upcountry for Haleakala or west for a wonderful dinner at Mala tavern. We watched whales everyday from the lanai and saw green turtles near the seawall every afternoon. We took advantage of the pool most days and had no issues finding a chaise to use. The condo is totally stocked with everything we needed and we loved being able to do laundry so we could just bring a carry on. We had a few questions during the trip and Kate was very swift to answer. Great host experience. I appreciated all of the information Kate communicated before the trip. It’s a lovely place and we hope to return very soon! Mahalo for everything!

This was a fully stocked condo so that only food I’d cook myself was needed. Great views, noisy surf but it’s the ocean! Terrific beds, bath, and decent if not anything parking. Cool pool and short distance to the rest of Maui, sans Lahaina. Don’t attempt to go up there. Not ready to receive visitors despite what Gov Green says.
