We also have 2 full bathrooms with customized showers.
Our Private Lanai: Our lanai is where you'll spend most of your time sipping cocktails and having great conversations. With seating for 6, it's very comfortable and you'll be able to watch your other guests or your kids play at the pool below during the day and star gaze at night.

Unit 1J Location: 2nd floor (top) and overlooks the pool and garden area of the property in building 1. Although our property is on the ocean, this unit does not have much of an ocean view. More like a "peek - a - boo" small ocean view between the palm trees. However, you can still hear the ocean waves during a swell and it's only a one-minute walk past the pool to our ocean entrance area.
Maui Sands Property Location: - Direct Ocean Front Property facing the islands of Lanai and Molokai. - Just 5 minutes from Kaanapali and 10 to Lahaina town - Very end of North Kaanapali Beach in between Papakea resort and Paki Maui. - Walk to Kaanapali, black rock or Dukes Restaurant ON THE BEACH. - Very quiet and peaceful. - Large grass areas, large pool (non heated, but no need!) and 2 bib areas

(Only a foot deep during low tide) - Buy the kids small nets and they’ll spend hours trying to catch the small fish - No need to pack up the car and drive to go snorkel, swim, surf or kayak. - Snorkel and enjoy our two reefs right in front of our property - Collect seashells - Last property you can actually walk ON THE BEACH to Kaanapali and black rock - Enjoy beautiful sunset walks starting next door at Papakea
Beach Walk: Walk for miles to Kaanapali ON THE BEACH starting next door at Papakea! Walk to Dukes Restaurant, Black Rock or Whalers Village. No property north of us can you walk on a beach more than 5 minutes? Depending on high or low tide, you may have to step in the ocean and walk to the next property, Papakea to start you beach walk. If you don’t want to walk on the sand, when you reach Kaanapali Shores, you can walk on the walking path to black rock or all the way to whaler’s village in Kaanapali.
Our Beach: Since we are at the very end of a super long beach (North Kaanapali Beach), the sand moves up and down the beach a lot. It comes and goes depending on storms, tides and the currents but typically during the summer months we have more sand out front. If you have to layout on the sand during these times, feel free to walk to the ocean front park just on the other side of Paki Maui. They have a large beach area with sand all year around. And no, we cannot predict when we will have a large sand area in from of Maui Sands. The sand moves up and down the coast a lot!
Area around Maui Sands: (Within ½ mile you'll find...) - Bus stop next door. $2/ride. (Takes you to Kaanapali and Lahaina) - Grocery stores, bars, coffee shops, many restaurants - Honokowai Beach Park - Health food store and farmers market.

Good location, lovely property
Condo is updated, with new bathroom remodels and new appliances. Includes adequate dishes, pots and pans for basic cooking. No water toys or beach chairs come with this unit, few left-over cooking ingredients, so bring your own or rent them. This unit’s bedrooms face the road, and owner has considerately provided white noise machines if needed. Property is pretty and well cared for, with a nice pool. Not particularly little kid friendly though — pool has no steps or shallow part for little ones; beach is a narrow strip of sand and rocks that is a HUGE step down from property and there is not room to set up beach chairs — water often right up to steps. BUT the water is crystal clear and there is good snorkeling between the two reefs right out front.

Very Comfortable!
Big mahalo goes out to Hawaii for the lovely stay! What went right: very nice/kind property manager, beautiful ocean access, walking distance to park, bigger beach area (Honopiilani Beach), grocery store, moped rental, amazing cinnamon rolls, laundry room in complex, coffee shop. We had a great unit! We overheard other vacationers comment that they didn’t have good A/C and were too hot/miserable. Not so with us. We used the A/C sparingly customized by room and were VERY comfortable sleeping. Bathrooms, beds, kitchen, lanai - all perfect!
What could be improved: maybe small shampoo/ conditioner? It’s a average rating for lux—- no “extras” that make you feel spoiled. The snorkeling near the unit was not good- but we visited just after a storm and the waves were pretty energetic even after the murk settled. So that’s could have just been our luck of the draw.
We would recommend this lovely place for the family who is more interested in quality family time more than a “spoiled spa” experience.

Condo is in a great location
Clean and well-equipt condo. Good value for the money. Easy parking and great location. The tides were really high and strong and not much room on the beach for laying out. Very noisy on the road at night. The noise-canceling machines helped, but could still hear cars/trucks racing by.

Lovely Spacious Condo
Maui Sands 1J was a great condo for our vacation needs. It was clean, the beds and pillows were comfortable, the A/C worked great, and it was located close to all our activities. Our first night after traveling all day, we walked to nearby food trucks to eat. Very convenient since we were pretty tired. Kory, the owner, was very responsive to our questions and came out within the hour to assist with my concern. Turned out it was my error. He also brought us extra toilet paper, so we never had to shop for any. The tide was up the whole week, but there were plenty of sandy beaches nearby. So no problem! You could still use the beach and sit on the grassy area by the entrance. I would recommend this condo to anyone and would stay here again if I came back to Maui!

Great property and location!
This condo was perfect for our Maui stay and we will definitely return. The ocean access was phenomenal and loved the grill access.
One thing to note is that the condo faces the street, which can get loud very early in the morning. People walking past not only make a lot of noise (the sound seems to carry) but will also shake the room a bit. We were there to explore so getting up early wasn't really a problem, but it can be jarring.

Comfortable and clean
Condo interior was older than anticipated and could use some loving care (coat of paint would help.) We did enjoy our stay and overall a peaceful, pleasant 3 nights. Pool code was changed and on site manager should notify property managers. Area was fine but no place to take a walk. Ocean water high on retainer wall. (Literature does state tides csn be high but judging by the area beach walk seems very rare to non-existent.

Maui Vacation 2022
The property was well kept and comfortable. We really enjoyed the pool and the grounds. The shower head broke while we were there but the property manager was very responsive and fixed it quickly. The only downfall is that they were doing construction in the unit directly below us for three of the days we were there. That was hard as we would come back to rest after being at the beach and there was a lot of banging going on. I'm not entirely sure the neighborhood is safe as we were followed back to property by two rough looking individuals (one who was wearing a hoodie and the other got out and lit a cigarette while observing us). We did not exit the vehicle but left and they proceeded to leave right after we left. I'm not sure what their intentions were but our spidey senses were definitely going off. I would say that just like anywhere be aware of your surroundings. All in all it was beautiful and we enjoyed it immensely.

Great location, a bit noisy
The location here was great for exploring the west coast of Maui. The beach area directly at this property is mostly good for snorkeling. The condo itself was nice and as expected, the pool was warm every day, and the view and proximity to beach were great. The road noise was somewhat of an issue but the white noise machines did help. The other noisy part was the downstairs neighbor doing renovations the week we stayed, this also caused lots of dust on the lanai. Overall this was a great place to stay, would definitely recommend if you don’t want to pay the cost of a resort.

Basic lodging in a great area
Pros: short walk to grocery store (Times), places to eat, and beaches. Wonderful lanai for relaxing, comfortable beds, good Wi-Fi.
Cons: Needs minor maintenance (cabinets in kitchen, master toilet runs, bathroom shower hard to turn off). Furniture needs updated to be comfortable, kitchen isn’t well stocked (bare utensils, no pizza cutter, bring your own tinfoil and plastic wrap, 1 kitchen towel).
Our 2 families of adults and 1 infant had plenty of space and enjoyed our visit. We would stay here again, but know to bring or rent beach chairs, all ocean gear, and stop at Costco for kitchen and food first.
