25th Anniversary Trip

Our family with 2 teenagers loved the awesome condo showcasing the Brillant sunset each evening. The location (privacy of beach) was nice. We loved the entire island of Maui. We recommend all including Kihei and visiting the nearby communities. Surfing with instructors is a must for the young at heart (...And getting professional photos to prove the success!) Until next time...

Absolutely wonderful

We arrived in the evening. When day light broke, we were amazed by the location and view. The beech is quiet and stunning at the same time. Our unit truly provided Maui! *I provided 4 star on listing because laundry is not in-unit. I read the ad as in-unit.

Good Location

Stay was good. We were disappointed when arrived that there was not a volleyball net as were in all the photos. This was our deciding factor in choosing to stay here vs another potential spot. Also we were given instructions upon our arrival to visit the office but it was closed. Stopped by the next day and it was closed. Place was clean and the location was great.

Maui Moments

Overall this rental was very good for a family getaway. Fair price for location. Check in was very smooth and easy… the rental company that works with the owner is amazing! A few early issues were quickly resolved and they were very friendly! The place itself was nice…AMAZING view, quiet, and good location. Pictures were a little deceiving (rooms are very tight with furniture that is way too big for the space… dining table and master bedroom specifically). Starter toiletry pack was VERY basic and unfortunately no toilet paper which was a problem after traveling over 12 hours to get there. Beds were comfortable but showers were a little tight. It was nice to have laundry machines available (you have to load $10 at a time though so do lots of laundry to get your moneys worth 😉). The beach in front of the unit is fine for walking but not very wide and fairly rough for swimming which wasn’t that much of an issue for us since we traveled to different beaches each day. I would recommend this rental for a visit to Maui.

Absolutely Loved It!!!

This property was fantastic for my two children (6 & 8), mother and husband and myself! The beds were very comfortable, pullout couch was great for my kids and was spacious enough around it to leave out throughout the duration of our stay! They probably are due for a new couch, but again, worked for us and the kids! The view was amazing with gorgeous sunsets. The property manager (Caroll) was fantastic and tended to a couple things we needed in the beginning asap and communication with her was so easy! Their was plenty of space for us to organize our clothes for the 10 days we stayed and loved the bathroom counter space. Laundry was not in unit, but super easy to use with the app system available for use! The pool was chilly, but did not bother our kids one bit and we always were able to get a chair. It could use some updates, but was always crystal clear clean! This is our 4th time in Hawaii and first in VRBO. The location was fantastic for us and were able to get to all sides of the Island very easily. The ABC store down the street was great for quickly running to grab a few things and was a short walk/drive into Kihei. The beach was great, but for swimming a little bit rocky with coral, but for a sandier beach, it’s a quick drive up to Wailea beaches and the hotels are very welcoming to Valet your car, so you can enjoy the beach. We would definitely consider staying here again! You would not be disappointed with this unit. Highly recommend!

Good - but could easily be better

We spent 3 weeks on 4 Hawaiian Islands, all booked via vrbo, so we have a comparison. This place was the most expensive and should have been the best, but there are some issues which lead to subtract a star. Good: top location, unobstructed view across lawn, dunes and sea, beautiful in the morning sun, no street noise, interesting building design, Kihei located centrally on Maui for all kinds of excursions, layout of apartment is good per se for a family with 2 grown children. Neutral: apartment is in a larger condominium with all pros and cons that the size brings with it; hardly any useable closet space; somewhat mindless array of kitchen utensils (3 bottle openers but no scissors?); small balconies Issues: Cleaning - dirt all over the place, upon arrival we spent 1 hour cleaning the floors; management stated that the way the apartments are built, it cannot be avoided that sand from the beach blows through the closed windows and doors. We can relate to the wind issue. But that hardly explains remains of potato chips throughout the living room, bread crumbs all over the kitchen counter, used toothpicks on the sofa, the assortment of general debris under the beds. This is not wind, but superficial cleaning and a quick swipe of the hard floors, to distribute the sand and grime instead of removing it. Maintenance - this place could use some. Seals of shower door are desolate, wear & tear on all walls and furniture, broken bedroom door. Responsiveness of management.

This is our second time in this unit and absolutely love it! So spacious, the added drawers in the master bedroom was perfect! We are able to leave the pullout bed out for the kids our whole stay and still have plenty of room. Had all the dishes, etc we needed. The ability to grill poolside is great as well.The best part of course is the view from both balconies. We will definitely be back! Thank you again!

The condo is in a good location with a great view, however, it has an overpowering mold/mildew smell- probably coming from the sofa and chair. Both those pieces of furniture need to be replaced. The kitchen was adequately furnished. We all felt the condo would be more comfortable with smaller furnishings and getting rid of the smell.
