Having stayed here for decades, it's obvious that I find the area and Ma'alaea Surf the best on Maui. The units are well maintained, the grounds are beautiful, and management is always willing to help. It is definitely worth staying, you will not be disappointed!
Except for the unexpected noise of work being done above us which we noted to the manager everything was very good.
The manager mitigated the noise issue to our satisfaction.

Ma'alaea Surf Resort is a beautifully maintained resort with lush gardens. The two pools were crystal clear and a joy for my sunset swims. Unit D-5 was a pleasure. I enjoyed the stylish, comfortable furniture, tile floor, stone countertops, and best view of ocean and open sky. Management is on top of all aspects of building maintenance and guest concerns

Love this unit....the tv remote setup is terrible ..so difficult to get a response for channel changing, volume control, getting the guide up. We don't watch much tv but want it at times. We probably won't go back to this unit because of the tv. Other than that....Perfection!

This rental experience was amazing. Property is beautiful and was very clean. Sugar beach is exceptional, great for swimming and beach walks. The rental process was very easy, the resort even reached out to us ahead of time to let us know one of the units in our building was being renovated while we were there. They offered us a refund but we choose to stay and we are happy we did. I would highly recommend this property to others.
