We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! It was the perfect size for us and very clean and comfortable. The location was amazing too with a gorgeous beach just across the road that went on for miles making for a gorgeous walk to a town center with lots of shopping and eating options. The host was very responsive and accommodating. Would definitely stay again

About the host

Hosted by Jim and Pamela Babbage

Host profile image
Jim and Pamela Babbage fell in love with Maui 10 years ago on a trip with family that changed their lives. So much so, that they decided to purchase a home on Maui and split their time between the mainland and this beautiful island.

Why they chose this property

Our condo community is Wailana Sands which is a small, quiet complex of only 10 units with easy access, easy parking and beautiful landscaping, swimming pool and BBQ's. With the beach just steps away, a spontaneous mad dash into the refreshing ocean, a leisurely morning walk on the beach with a cup of coffee or enjoying a spectacular sunset at the end of the day is always an option. It is a blessing to be able to share our home with others. Our home on Maui is a beautiful refuge, a peaceful place to reset, recharge and be refreshed.

What makes this property unique

Our condo is centrally located in North Kihei which is a quieter section of south Maui but a short drive to the restaurants and shops of central Kihei.
