We enjoyed our stay here. It was very nice to be right across the street from a beach. The location was quiet and comfortable. The kitchen was well supplied with dishes and utensils and supplies for cooking. There was space in the living area for us to set up a pack-and-play for our infant. The welcome packet included all the instructions we needed to find the pool, laundry room, dumpsters, and appropriate parking.
Cute, affordable room in Kihei. Clean room across from a small beach. Our toddler enjoy spending time in the pool between activities. We really enjoyed our stay!
This property was great for us! Excellent location. Right across the street from the beach. Laundry on site. Clean and comfortable! Would definitely recommend staying here and would stay again myself.

Reviewer Comments:
We loved our time at Kihei Bay Surf #144. It was a great location surrounded by a great community.
Location was amazing, within walking distance to beach access. The bed was comfortable and had all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay. Just be careful leaving any food on the counter/stove, even in containers as we ended up with bugs in our bread (ants got through sealed with plastic wrap, stored on counter) and in our dinner (roaches in a skillet on the stove) within minutes of sitting down to eat.

The accommodation is very well located: it is on the main road and yet it is quiet. Just across the street is a beautiful beach. The apartment is very well equipped and you can take care of yourself very well thanks to the kitchen.

Reviewer Comments:
Loved this place!It was clean and reasonably priced. I had to find a place on really short notice after our hotel burned down in the Lahaina fires. I'm really grateful that they didn't price gouge like some of the other rentals. Great location. I will definitely stay here again.
It was a good stay, its apartments so your dealing with neighbors who dont know how to mind their own buisness. The toilet wouldnt flush during our stay but the manager was good about sending someone right away. We couldnt opt out of having maintenance come while we were gone which we didnt like too much. It was very close to the beach and we could walk over. I would stay again.

Location worked well for us.Fairly easy drive to most of the sightseeing.Not much of a view from the lanai.Nice laundry but you need to use an app and cannot add the amount you want and I still have money in the app I can't get refunded.The AC worked fairly well and was quiet.

Reviewer Comments:
Kihei Bay Surf #144 was perfect for our short stay. The kitchen was tidy and complete; the bed was comfy, and the beach across the street was adequate. We were close to Hope Chapel in Kihei and the beautiful Kalama Beach Park. The carwash area should be marked "no parking except for car washing." We had to park there our first night, and got admonished by a year-round resident. But our parking pass gave us access on the other nights. We loved it and will hope to stay there again.
Overall, the location was good; near the start of Kihei as you move to Wailea. The unit itself was ok; the A/C was great, parking was a little tight, the bed was fine, and the water pressure in the shower was adequate. All in all, nothing negative except for the small pest issue. This may be more property than unit. Living on Oahu, I understand pest issues but, if I have to use my own money for pest control, then that's a detractor. Hopefully, they can get that resolved.

Reviewer Comments:
Cons: Room 144, couldn't really open the drapes all the way because it was in direct view of people at the pool. People were literally walking right next to our lanai. Had to kill a minimum of 5 to 10 cockroaches a day in the shower, bathroom, kitchen. Pros: Location was fine for being midway to everywhere on the island (18 min to Kahului, 4 min to Nalu's Grill, 3 min to Ululani's shave ice), room had all kinds of cookware for cooking though we didn't use it (got turned off by the roaches). The pool was always being used so seemed fun. We never went since we went to the Ocean for snorkeling.

Reviewer Comments:
My husband and I loved this little place. Had all the amenities we needed for cooking, hamming at the beach and relaxing. Plan to bring your own coffee, food/seasoning needs as that is limited to salt/pepper/sugar. But the kitchen was stocked with nearly all utensils needed. There were Tommy bahama chairs (quite worn but still great for a day lounging in the beach), and an umbrella for the beach (too windy for us to use) along with a cooler for snacks and drinksThe bed was small but comfy and the room was nicely decorated and easy to just chill in. It was nice to either hang out by the pool or relax in the hot tub. There were tennis rackets available, but we didn’t get a chance to play (bring tennis balls). The only reason I didn’t give full five stars across the board is there was a small roach issue (make sure all food is covered and put away), not extreme. And there was construction happening on the property, so it was loud at times and just a little cluttered. But nothing that would deter us from staying again. In fact, I would recommend this great little place to friends.
