Perfect Hawaiian adventure
We had a great time staying here. The place is very clean, spacious and has beautiful views. Every night we walked out to the beach to see the sun set and had breakfast on the patio. The place was stocked with everything we needed for cooking, going to the beach

Beautiful condo in a lovely setting
The unit is updated and clean, and everything was in good working order. The kitchen is very well stocked with cookware, dishes and appliances to prepare meals. The lanai extends from the living area to the bedroom and the view over the expansive lawn to the ocean is beautiful. All linens were clean and the bed was comfortable to us. Central AC was appreciated during the night for comfortable sleeping. There was decent water pressure and plenty of hot water for showers.
We would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend.

This property is all it claims to be. The location is ideal. The beach, though small, is only a short stroll away. The condo is easy to access, has all the comforts of home and the keyless entry is convenient-no key to lose! Everything you need is provided including beach gear and towels. The kitchen is fully stocked with dishes, pots, pans, utensils etc. condo was very clean and well kept. We would definitely book this condo again hands down.

Beautiful place, nice location, has everything you need
This is a beautiful place with a good view and a well appointed kitchen. Very clean, just as listed. A beautiful beach is just a hundred yards away, amazing to experience morning walks with coffee in hand. Our stay unfortunately coincided with extremely loud drilling noises (ongoing maintenance in a neighboring unit), so we could not really stay in during the day time. The mattress in the bedroom could use a replacement - I have a lower back problem and prefer medium to firm surfaces, but this one sank a little bit in the middle.

Awesome Accommodation!!!
This was my first VRBO experience and we hit the jackpot with this place. Awesome location; super clean and fully FULLY equipped with everything you could need. We were in Maui for 9 days and cooked breakfast each morning and barbecued on 3 nights. Everything we could possible need was there. The condo is newly renovated and done very well. Beautiful view … we had our coffee each morning on the balcony. Late afternoon and early morning walks on the beautiful beach nearby were amazing. I’d stay here again and again and again. It was perfect for 2 people but looks alike it could accommodate at least 4. Very VERY happy with our choice to stay here. Thank you Stephen for making your place so wonderful!!!

Great value in Kihei
Good location and very well appointed, clean, quiet, and up to date condo. Great for a first visit to Maui.
Check in/out was very easy.
Only small negative would be the pool, very busy while we were there but that can be expected during the hot summer.

Nice housing
This was a nice property right in town. It is very close to the beach, I wouldn’t consider beachfront. You can’t hear the water or easily see the waves from the balcony. It is a simple walk to the beach though which was nice. Overall well stocked condo with things needed for the beach which was appreciated.

Great stay!
This condo is in the best location. Pool and hot tub are great. We used the bbqs plenty. You do hear road noise but not a problem for us. The only "negative" would be that your lanai is not in the sun at all throughout the day! We would stay here again! It was nice to use the beach towels, chairs and cooler. Thanks Stephen!

Excellent location, condo layout is very comfortable, and we really like the shower.
Location in north Kihei gave us convenient access to all the local facilities, and friends and relatives with whom we went to spend Thanksgiving. We really like the condo's layout compared to others we've stayed at in Kihei. We specifically liked having a shower rather than a bathtub. Our only (slightly) negative comment is that the unit is getting a little down in the dumps and could use a little maintenance: kitchen cabinet facings are starting to peel off, and a few spots need some spackle and paint touchup. And if you ever get to replacing the toilet, we strongly suggest a modern "comfort" height unit.

Good Location and Nice View
Overall, this is a good place to stay, but we were somewhat disappointed, considering its very positive reviews. The gardens, pool, and spa are clean and well-maintained, and the view from the lanai is nice; however, the beach is quite a distance away from the unit, and nearby road noise tends to drown out the surf. The unit is in need of some maintenance and a deep clean, as it had damaged lanai screens, burnt-out light bulbs, dirty wall mirrors, over-use of air freshener, and an inoperable a/c unit thermostat control (always cold, even when turned to "warm", so it had to either be turned on or off). The couch bed is fairly uncomfortable for adults and had crumbs under the cushions and on the sheets. Although the unit has plenty of kitchenware and a dishwasher, simple additions such as coffee filters would be helpful. Also, the dryers in the laundry room on our floor did not work, which was inconvenient as departure instructions state that beach towels should be washed prior to check-out! In spite of these issues, we had a great time during our two-day stay at this condo, especially since it is very convenient to Kihei groceries, shops, and restaurants, and to Makena's Big Beach and La Perouse Bay (our favorites!).

Nice condo
We enjoyed our stay in this condo. It is big enough for two people and provided all the amenities that we needed. It was clean and well maintained. The view of the ocean and pool area are just as the photos show them to be. The balcony provided a comfortable location for enjoying our morning coffee. However, there is no privacy while sitting on the balcony, due to the proximity of the balconies of the adjacent complex. The complex grounds are beautiful and well taken care of. The beach was nice...not large and we enjoyed walking it. The air conditioning worked well when we needed it during the late afternoon and night. The bed was a little too firm for our liking. There were extra pillows, sheets and blankets if needed. The TV is high quality and worked well once we figured out how to control it (directions in the guest information book). We did not turn on the TV in the bedroom. Wi-fi worked very well. The lighting in the bath room sink area was a little low for our liking, but not too bad. The kitchen cabinet doors and drawers are starting to show their age and could use an upgrade. Overall...the condo was a good choice for our first visit to Kihei. Thank you Stephen for sharing it with us.

Comfortable condo with nice views!
We had a very nice stay at this condo for the three nights we spent in Kihei. It had everything we needed and the size was perfect for our family of four. The pool, spa and grill were nice amenities to have after a day out at the beach. We were particular drawn to this unit because of the price. It's a great value and the view from
the lanai was amazing. The highway, restaurants and grocery stores were just a couple minutes drive away. The highlight of our stay in Kihei would be Makena beach, just beautiful! We would rent this unit again. Mahalo!

Great home away from home!
This apartment was great for our family. We had a 1 year old baby and it was so nice having space for him to roam. Having the kitchen helped save money. The pool and jacuzzi were great for evenings after putting the baby to bed, especially since they were open until 10pm. The grounds of the condo are meticulously maintained and every morning the pool and jacuzzi get cleaned and cared for. Lots of yummy restaurants near by. Great view! We definitely recommend it!

A great seat in paradise.
Stephen's slice of paradise is one to be shared. I just visited #426 for thirty days, and it was a pleasure. The views in this condo are fantastic. The property of the condo is stunning as well. There are tennis courts next door at the public park, shuffle board, putting green in which the complex provides game gear, and 5 bbq grills on the property along with a nice swimming pool and hot tub! There is also a gorgeous beach at the edge of the property ready for swimming, fishing or stargazing. There is a lot going on! Anything you might need, minus a surfboard, boat, and paddle are supplied. I traveled all over the island for 30 days and found Kihei a great spot to begin from. Enjoy this property! And, mahalo Stephen!

This condo has it all! Great views, comfort and location. The beach chairs available for use were the most comfortable I have sat in. Nightly, we sat along the beach and watch the sunset. There is an outdoor jacuzzi hot tub and pool for enjoyment also. BBQ's were available for cooking up that fresh fish we bought. The condo had all conveniences, and was better than a 5 star hotel.
