The views were amazing and being able to sit on the balcony and watch the Maui sunset with whales passing by is an unforgettable experience. The home felt like a home away from home. Had all the kitchen and amenities we needed for the week and was a short walk to the food truck park where we had dinner and listened to the music. The family agreed it is a place we will certainly return too.

Great beach location
Beautiful and great location, i do believe the bedding’s in both rooms need to be upgraded as the master bedroom futon bed was not as comfortable and would prefer a standard king size bed and new pillows would be nice in both bedrooms too as they seemed to be outdated with the living couch otherwise excellent views, easy check in and location

Lovely, quiet property with spectacular ocean views. Kitchen is well stocked. Be aware that the master bed, although very comfortable is on a platform a foot or so off of the floor. If you have mobility issues, knees or hips, then getting in and out of this bed is challenging.

BEST VRBO EVER
We've been renting units on VRBO and other sites for over 15 years. This is far and away the best rental we've ever had anywhere. The views were breathtaking, truly the best on the beach. The unit and building were clean and well kept, the beds, recliners and couch were very comfortable and the artwork was exquisite. To top it off, we saw many whales playing in the surf everyday of our stay.

Spacious condo with the best ocean view! Whale watchers dream!
This condo is much more spacious than it appears in photos! Once you turn the corner in the hallway and see that view, you will be speechless! We spent many hours just looking out the windows into the ocean or on the lanai. We saw so many whales, turtles, rainbows, surfers (even a kite surfer) and gorgeous sunsets all right outside the window…it was a dream! The property is lovely, with a nice heated pool, spacious hot tub and shuffleboard. The location is excellent and not nearly as busy as Whaler’s Village area (which was a huge plus for us). We loved being able to walk to Duke’s, the awesome Honokōwai Food Truck Park, Pizza Paradiso, and Times Supermarket (great prices!)…and you're only a quick drive to Whaler’s Village, Napili and Kapalua. Kathy provides everything you may need in the condo…beach toys, towels, endless kitchen utensils. Thank you, Kathy, for your hospitality! I will be dreaming of that view for a long time…we loved our stay and would recommend in a heartbeat!

Million dollar view
The view from this condo is spectacular! You will have a tough time beating the amazing view here. We saw sea turtles everyday from the balcony and at the beach. The sound of the waves from the balcony was so peaceful and made for a perfect place to enjoy our morning coffee.
For the interior, the mattresses were very comfortable, the kitchen is very modern with great appliances and the kitchen was very clean. Outside of that though, there were a few minor cleanliness issues such as dusty vents and fingerprints on the glass windows. We ended up cleaning some of the glass windows ourselves to better enjoy the view. The guest toilet was leaking during the beginning of our stay which ended up stopping on its own. The toilet doesn’t fill properly and seems to have some type of issue that prevented the bowl from filling with water. There was a miscommunication with the host about maintenance coming in to look at the toilet. We wanted to be there when they came but it wasn’t coordinated properly and they came when we were gone. The host was very responsive when I reached out about the issue with the toilet. The host did communicate that the guest sink had issues with the faucet being very loose and that a replacement part was on order. We avoided using that sink as a result. You can tell the property is a little worn and dated in some ways, but even with a few minor issues the view and location make this place fantastic.

Fabulous Stay
My husband, my 12 y/o granddaughter & I just concluded our 10 day stay in Kathy & David’s Mahana condo. Our plane landed at night so we didn’t have much to see on our drive to Kaanapali. We easily checked-in, got settled in the condo & went to bed, exhausted. When we woke up the next morning we were greeted with the most stunning view from the floor to ceiling glass windows overlooking the beach. The view took our collective breaths away. Wow, just wow!
The condo is well-equipped with everything you would need if you find yourself inclined to cook (I didn’t LOL). Staples such as spices, cooking oils, etc are ample. Plenty of dishes, glasses, pots & pans, etc. You have a choice of drip coffee machine, a single cup Keurig, or a French Press. The bedrooms were comfortable with ample closet & drawer space. Sitting each morning with a cup of coffee in the comfortable recliner chairs overlooking the ocean was the perfect way to begin the day. It was also the perfect way to watch the sun set each evening. Although it was the end of whale season, we spotted whales in the distance on a number of occasions. We also saw many sea turtles from the condo & watched them battle the waves to get out to sea. My granddaughter was thrilled with all these sightings. The closet filled with beach gear made beach days very easy & enjoyable. Kathy & David provided toiletries to get us started, which got us through the first few days. The appliances are all high-end Miele & were easy to use & worked well.
Kathy & David’s condo guide was very helpful with suggestions for activities, restaurants & shopping.

A few minor issues but overall a wonderful stay!
The good:
- Great location, easy walk to the beach, restaurants, a grocery store, food trucks, bars and other resorts.
- The view is a 10. You will not find a better view at any price in this area. Simply amazing.
- The unit is in good condition and well cared for.
- Free parking.
- The onsite staff are friendly and very helpful.
The not so good (but not bad):
- We did have a few issues during our stay (AC needed to be fixed, dishwasher stopped working, we lost water pressure and hot water several times) but the hosts were helpful/responsive and the building maintenance was excellent.
- One thing that would have been nice to know before hand was that there was construction going on at the building. This wasn't a major deal as they typically started after 8am but it was pretty noisy throughout the day.
- There are A LOT of house rules. I would avoid staying in this unit if you have kids or irresponsible adults in your group.
Even with a few minor issues, we had a wonderful stay and I would go back without hesitation.
