About this property

Sugar Beach Maui Direct Oceanfront with Lanai, Sunset + Whale Views

  • DIRECT OCEANFRONT ON MAUI'S SUGAR BEACH

    Wake to the sound of the Pacific just beyond your private lanai at our beautifully renovated one-bedroom condo at Sugar Beach Resort. This is true oceanfront living - miles of sandy beach just outside, sweeping water, sunset and whale views, central A/C, a California King bed, a fully equipped kitchen, high-speed Wifi, remote working desk space, in-unit washer/dryer, and everything you need for a comfortable Maui stay.

    Morning coffee and evening sunsets are even better when you're spotting humpback whales directly from our lanai during Maui's winter whale season. From January through March, we see whales offshore almost every day. We provide binoculars, although once you learn to recognize the distinctive puff of a whale's blow, you'll often spot them with the naked eye.

    THE CONDO

    Our third-floor oceanfront condo has been completely redesigned with modern furnishings, new flooring and lighting, central air conditioning, and comfortable spaces for relaxing after a day on Maui.

    The bedroom features a comfortable California King bed, quality pillows and its own remote working desk, track lighting and high-speed 170+ mbs Wi-Fi connection. The living area includes a 55-inch Smart TV and Sonos sound system, with the ocean just beyond the lanai.

    The fully equipped kitchen is designed for guests who actually enjoy cooking, with a granite slab countertop, a glass cooktop, stainless-steel appliances, cookware, air fryer, toaster oven, griddle, kitchen essentials and spices - plus an ocean view while you prepare meals.

    You'll also have the convenience of an in-unit washer and dryer.

    BEACH DAYS MADE EASY

    Sugar Beach is right outside the resort. Walk for miles along the shoreline, swim, snorkel, boogie-board, sunbathe or simply find a quiet stretch of sand.

    Beach chairs

    Beach towels

    Beach umbrella

    Cooler and ice packs

    Snorkel and fin sets

    Boogie boards

    Binoculars for whale watching

    No need to rent or buy the basics after you arrive.

    SUGAR BEACH RESORT

    Guests especially enjoy the resort's:

    Heated oceanfront pool

    Large hot tub

    Sauna

    Outdoor BBQ grills

    Covered poolside dining area

    Free parking, including covered and elevated parking spaces

    Elevators and grocery carts

    On-site dining at Dina's Sandwitch

    Massage and private yoga may also be available on-site for an additional fee.

    A GREAT CENTRAL MAUI LOCATION

    Sugar Beach sits between Kihei and Maʻalaea, making it easy to explore both South and Central Maui.

    Take a relaxing beach walk toward the canoe club, ABC Store and Sugar Beach Bakery for fresh malasadas, pastries and morning coffee.

    By car or free bus, you're conveniently located for:

    Maʻalaea Harbor and the Maui Ocean Center

    Kihei restaurants and beaches

    Wailea beaches, dining and golf

    Costco and shopping in Kahului

    Maui's airport

    Upcountry Maui, Paʻia and other island adventures

    And when you're done exploring, you can come home to one of the best parts of staying here: your own oceanfront lanai, the sunset, and the sound of the waves.

    OWNER-CARED-FOR & LOCALLY SUPPORTED

    Because we're resident in Maui, we pay close attention to the details that make a stay comfortable. We've been awarded 5-stars for our communication and responsiveness.

    Our local co-host and on-island concierge, Larisa, is on-site regularly and available if you need assistance during your stay.

    Whether you're coming for a romantic Maui escape, winter whale watching, long walks on Sugar Beach, snorkeling and swimming, or simply time beside the ocean, we'd love to share this very special place with you.

Overall was a good property with a great view! Right on the beach! The lanai is definitely the best part! Great place for a getaway. Kihei is central to the island and a good location for exploring all the island has to offer with this resort being on the far end going towards Lahaina. We had a wonderful time and the concierge was awesome!

Hidden gem

Amy is definitely a superhost and the property is at an amazing location. It felt like being on a private beach, waking up everyday to the sound of waves. Amy is super helpful and understands your needs and tried to help me in every way she could. I would highly recommend this place.

Excellent ocean front relaxation

Condo offered all amenities and great lanai directly on the ocean. Kitchen was well equipped although a standard oven would be nice as only option was a microwave with convection. Internet was spotty which made the Tv streaming impossible most of the time. Great shower and king bed. Would stay here again

Amazing view!

The condo is newly remodeled and is beautiful! Perfect for 2 people. We ate breakfast on the lanai every morning and could see whales spouting in the distance. The condo was very well equipped with everything you could possibly need. The location is great. We actually went and got dinner a couple of nights at the local food trucks which was a short drive away and came back and ate on the lanai. We would definitely stay again!

Perfect Location

We would stay at this place again. The condo was beautifully updated and bright. The only thing was there is no separate door on the bathroom. It was not an issue for us, we just would close the bedroom door. The property, pool and beach are clean. It is centrally located which was perfect.

Fantastic setting!

Great condo right on the beach! Complex was quiet and the staff friendly. Loved being able to swim and snorkel every day right from the beach! Spectacular sunsets every evening from the lanai. Easy free parking right in front of the condo. Pool very nice too. Condo was cozy and well appointed. The condo had been updated but for the washer/dryer. The toilet was part of the bedroom which was a bit goofy but part of the original design.

Our delayed 20th anniversary trip

Hubby and I had a trip to Hawaii planned for our 20th and things came up. We finally took the trip and found this awesome condo at Sugar Beach. Owners were great, Marco, the manager was great as well. The place was amazing and the lanai...oh my, sooo great. The complex, as a whole has everything. A pool, tub, cool pub/food, activities, etc. The endless sandy beach is absolutely incredible. Close to some touring around, but the best is just chillin ocean front🌅👍. Thank you. Suzi and Scott

Great views

The condo was clean and comfortable with everything you could need for a great stay. The views from the lanai were amazing. The resort is great, with a nice pool area, beach, restaurant, and massages too. Communication with host was great. The check in closes at 5pm and doesn’t open til 8am which made getting the parking pass a challenge for us. There are 3 steps to get into the condo, which could be difficult for mobility challenged. The bathroom design is open to the bedroom, but there is a shower curtain you can pull for added privacy. The area is central to doing many activities. We had a great stay and would choose this condo again. We will recommend to others.

Needs help.

Check in process was easy and simple, the location is also fantastic. No problems with anything in that department. What we were disappointed in: 1. Was the amount of expired, old food & medication in the kitchen/vanity. I was shocked to see peoples prescription drugs left. There is a big difference between leaving some condiments and salt or coffee vs leaving old jam, expired prescriptions, literally (and I counted) 14 sunscreen tubes, etc. The overall cleanliness of the unit was good. 2. The washer/dryer is about 25 years old and needs replaced. Super sad to see a $1.2M condo and the owner not spend a few thousand bucks for a decent place to wash your clothes. 3. The mattress was really sad and hard, and the sheets could have been cleaner. Which I believe is a result of the washing machine being a joke. 4. The kitchen remodel they did looks and is great. However, the entire condo needs a paint job. All the walls and scuffed and dirty looking. The pictures are deceiving. Its these small things that really matter, and do not cost a lot. The bedroom closet is stacked to the ceiling with things that the guest should not be seeing. The disorganization of it is also sad. I expect to stay in a place that is at minimum as clean as any mediocre hotel.
