About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire condo to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Welcome to our small piece of paradise on the island of Maui!

Welcome to our Maui condo at the Shores of Maui, a small, low-rise (fifty unit) condominium complex with spectacular direct ocean views of South Maui’s best surfing beach, Cove Park Beach and Molokini Crater, a popular snorkeling and diving destination.

Just steps from the beach, this property is centrally located and a five minute walk across the street to Cove Park. You can walk south along the grassy bluff overlooking the ocean and be on Charley Young Beach, one of the most pristine, swimable sandy beaches in South Kihei. Kamaole I Beach is contiguous with Charley Young Beach and is a very family-friendly, sandy beach with full Life Guard services, picnic areas, restrooms and showers.

A beach activities center for surf and paddle board rentals and lessons is about a five minute walk to the north on S. Kihei Rd. You will find a full service grocery store (Foodland), restaurants, cafes (Kihei Caffe), shops, night life and entertainment within the next two blocks.

A solar-heated swimming pool and spa with views of the sparkling Pacific ocean, private tennis court, several gas barbeques and covered picnic area are available for your enjoyment. The Shores Of Maui provides a unique island atmosphere in which to relax and enjoy all that sunny South Kihei has to offer; a small friendly beach community, direct access to miles of sandy, swimable beaches, gorgeous ocean views and sunsets with beautiful tropical island weather year round.

Nice improvements to our 1 bedroom, 1 bath second floor condo. If you are looking for a unit with-out carpets, we have installed all new luxury vinyl planks flooring through out the condo. In addition, we supply many of the items you will need in the well equipped kitchen. Our 3 new quiet ceiling fans installed in the living room, kitchen & bedroom keep the tropical air flowing through out the unit. The living area has air conditioning if you require more cooling than the ceiling fans and ocean breezes provide. The king bed is very comfortable and there is a queen sofa sleeper in the living room. High-speed wireless Internet, Cable with a 48" and 32" TV`s, and free, unlimited long-distance calling to the Inter-Islands, US Mainland and Canada are all included. We also provide Tommy Bahama beach chairs, umbrella and beach towels. We hope our TLC will make a difference to you.

TA/GE-000-519-3728-01
The condo is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can expect to find a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a coffee maker, and a ceiling fan.

Maui Getaway in Kihei

We had a wonderful time during our recent visit to Maui. We appreciate Mike and Lorrie sharing their condo with us. It was every easy to communicate with them which made arriving for check-in flawless. The condo had everything we needed to enjoy numerous days comfortably on the beach. We also had a fully equipped kitchen, but chose to enjoy all the great restaurants close by and avoid cooking :) The view from the patio is beautiful, we woke up each morning and enjoyed coffee while watching surfers and paddleboarders. The grounds are kept up so nicely - we met the onsite manager a couple of times and he couldn't have been nicer! The location is exactly where we wanted to be - across from the beach (and easy access to so many others!). We loved being able to easily walk to restaurants and enjoy a variety of live music. The hidden gem - is South Maui Gardens - which is literally half a block from the condo. We enjoyed the artisan show, food trucks, and hula show. Make sure you walk Kalama Beach in the morning - it's a fun stroll and you'll see plenty turtles enjoying their breakfast! Mahalo, Mike & Lorrie!

3 Weeks in Paradise

My wife and I had an excellent 3-week stay at Lorrie and Mike's place. They were very communicative ahead of and during the trip answering all the questions we had. Check-in/out was a breeze and they provided detailed information ahead of time and on paper within the condo. Shores of Maui is in a great location with beaches, restaurants, Foodland, etc. all easily in walking distance. They provided a variety of beach equipment (chairs, umbrella, noodles, ice packs) that we made great use of! Their kitchen is well-stocked with spices and sauces in the fridge - I will say that they could use new non-stick pans and a decent cutting board but we had no problem cooking many delicious meals and enjoying them on the lanai. The grounds, pool area and BBQs are well maintained and welcoming. We also appreciated the availability of a phone (especially as Canadians). We even managed to get to know some of their neighbours a little. Sunsets weren't quite visible from the lanai but a 30-second stroll to the pool fixes that. Overall, we loved our stay and hope to return in the future. Mahalo Lorrie and Mike for a fabulous stay in your little corner of paradise!

Nice condo, great location

This is a nice property for the price. Everything was as advertised. The owners were very communicative and responded to minor issues immediately. Great view from the lanai. Nice pool and facilities. Walking distance to everything you need. The listing mentions A/C in the living room. It was quite hot while we were there, even overnight, and the bedroom didn't cool off well. That's the only negative; really could use and A/C in the bedroom. Bed was extremely comfy.

Lorrie and Mike were super hosts, very responsive in all our communications. The condo is a short walk (right across the street) from the beach, and walking distance to fantastic restaurants. We loved spending time at the pool, and using the grills provided for meals when we elected to stay in. There are beach chairs, umbrella, even fishing poles provided! Would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great stay in Maui.

Great location

This condo was in a great location where we could walk to many things. The hosts have a well stocked condo with lots of things there in case you forgot something. Bathroom was nicely updated. Pool was lovely and I enjoyed watching the surfers from the patio every day. Only bad part was air conditioner wax only in the living room and since I’m a very hot sleeper the bedroom was very hot at night for me. There is a ceiling fan and a floor fan. Otherwise great trip.

Shores of Kihei #207

Mike and Lorrie were wonderful hosts in this 1 bedroom/1bath condo. Kitchen had everything we needed and stocked with dishwashing detergent as well as laundry detergent. Thank you! Location cannot be beat as it is right across from Cove Beach, a surfer’s paradise. Walking distance to the many restaurants and shops of cute Kihei. Also very clean unit. The drawbacks were that the unit has only one air conditioning unit that works in the living room area and doesn’t reach the bedroom. Sometimes this wasn’t a big problem but even with the windows open for the ocean breeze, it was still too hot at times. Also, the positioning of the unit in relation to the parking lot wasn’t ideal. The bedroom faces the parking lot and we could hear cars at all hours of the night. There is a common hallway that leads to other units so with the bedroom window open, there is a lot of noise from people going in and out of the unit. Most people are respectful and usually did not have a big problem with the noise overall. All in all, we had an excellent stay and would come back. Thanks Lorrie and Mike.

Great location and beautiful view

This was our first time to Hawaii so I was concerned about where we might be staying and the location. It actually ended up being a great location within walking distance to popular eating locations and shopping. It was also very close to a small beach, which was fun to look out every morning and see kids and adults getting their surfing lessons. Not sure when we'll be back but if we make it back we will be staying here again. The only concern we had was that the a/c was in the living room so the bedroom was a little warmer but the ceiling fan helped offset that.

Loved our first visit to Maui!

The property was as described. Lorrie and Mike had everything you could possibly need for your trip. There were beach towels, beach chairs, beach bags, pots, pans, dishes etc.....We loved the pool and hot tub and the view from the Lanai. We walked across to the beach to see the sunset... this was a great spot to see it. Everyday about 5:30 or 6 everyone would come park and watch the sun set and then leave. It is in walking distance of many great eatery spots. I don't have one complaint about this Condo.
