In its Kihei location, you will be in the perfect spot to see those dreamy sunsets and feel like you have your own private oasis while still being near the best attractions on the island.

Property Not Available Last Minute
Less than 24 hours before we were supposed to check in we were advised this property was not available due to construction and a leak. The company offered two vacant properties but ultimately didn’t match what we’d so carefully selected in tandem with a second party we were traveling with. They did allow us to cancel and we were very, very lucky to find another unit elsewhere with less than 12 hours to spare. This made for a far more stressful mid-trip transition than necessary.

Pretty view, good location.
Enjoyed reading on the deck listening to the birds and looking at the view. The bed was the most comfortable bed and pillow I’ve had away from home. Location was close to multiple different beaches, shops, restaurants and grocery stores. We went to a different beach each day and also made a nice drive to the volcano.

Great location and property management
Our stay was from 7/24 - 7/27/2022. Prior to arrival at this property, we also stayed in Kaanapali from 7/21 - 7/24.
PROS:
(1) Vacasa, the property manager, was fantastic and very helpful. We received two follow up calls after check in, an email and text message before check in with clear check in instructions.
(2) Location was minutes from beaches, parks and restaurants
(3) Less than 5 minutes walk from parking lot the beach
(4) We were greeted with a bag of snacks and treats
(5) Equipped with kitchen essentials
(6) Equipped with beach chairs and umbrellas but no snorkels or body boards like what we experienced in the previous property but it’s not really a con for us.
CONS:
(1) Bathroom and kitchen supplies such as toilet tissue and trash bags were on the cheap end. We were given 4 small rolls of cheap toilet papers. Luckily, they were just enough.
(2) The building was very old. There was a murky smell. My brother also checked in the same building, different unit, and his unit also had the same smell. On the brighter side for us, his property manager was wayyy worst. Vacasa was awesome to us.
(3) One of the bath towels smelled like metal
(4) The area was super windy, but this fact is unrelated to the property.
