BEACHES & LOCAL WILDLIFE: Beach conditions in Hawaiʻi can vary throughout the year due to weather, surf, currents, and tides, so shoreline size and accessibility may change during your stay.
Due to Maui’s rural environment, you may encounter occasional wildlife such as roosters and small geckos. Geckos are harmless, help control insects, and are considered a symbol of good luck in Hawaiʻi—please do not harm them.
While the HOA provides regular professional pest control, the tropical climate means that insects such as ants, roaches, and occasional rodents cannot be entirely eliminated. If you experience pest activity beyond what is typically expected, we will make every reasonable effort to coordinate with the HOA to address the issue. However, the presence of pests, inside or outside the unit, does not constitute a breach of this Agreement or qualify for any refund or rental adjustment.
SURROUNDINGS & UTILITIES:
We cannot guarantee that neighboring properties will be free from disturbances, including but not limited to noise from construction, traffic, or other residents and guests. Such occurrences do not constitute a breach of this Agreement or entitle guests to refunds or adjustments.
By booking your stay, you acknowledge that the Host is not liable for inconveniences caused by temporary interruptions or failures of utilities or services—including water, electricity, air conditioning, or plumbing—when such issues are beyond the Host’s control.
The Host is also not responsible for loss or damage to personal property due to weather, natural events, or other unforeseen circumstances. Additionally, cable and internet service in the unit may occasionally be unreliable; interruptions in these services do not qualify for refunds or rental adjustments.

Reviewer Comments:
Loved the location. Could use more pots and pans and spices. It was clean and comfortable and love the sound of the ocean at night. We had a power outage so it would have been good to have candles. But the battery lights worked well. Easy check in.
Great view! Clean home with 3 bedrooms and 3 bathroom. We were traveling as 3 couples and it was perfect. We all slept well. The kitchen appliances and dishes were well stocked.

We were so blown away by the view from the moment we walked in! This property is so perfectly located. It is right on top of the beach. Turtles, rays and seals swim by to say hello. The neighboring beaches, shops and restaurants are a short walk or short drive. And the items within the home are perfectly placed and very thoughtfully selected. We absolutely loved our 8 night stay.

Mahalo for your wonderful review! It’s fantastic to hear that your family trip was a success and that our facilities met all your needs. Your enjoyment is the best compliment we could hope for. With aloha, we invite you to join us again on your next trip.
This was the perfect place for a family vacation with young kids. If you turn right just past the food trucks there’s a beautiful boardwalk along the beach.

We’re honored by your review and happy to hear your stay was enjoyable. We eagerly await your next visit.
Thank you from the entire ohana at Aloha Vacation Rentals.
The views from this unit are stunning, and easily the highlight. The grounds are also beautiful, well-maintained, and pleasantly uncrowded, which creates a relaxing atmosphere. Unfortunately, the experience beyond the setting did not meet expectations. AC is listed as a primary feature of the unit, but it was not functioning during our stay. In Maui’s heat and humidity, this made a noticeable difference in overall comfort. We were initially advised to locate fans in the unit, but none were present. After follow-up, two fans were delivered, though three bedrooms were in use. At one point, the indoor humidity was so high that the large mirrored wall in the main living area showed visible condensation.Other details could be improved. Some towels were worn and stained, and a few fixtures (including wall-mounted items and the kitchen sink) did not appear to be fully secured. While not major issues on their own, these details impacted the overall feel of the stay.Communication from the property management team was timely, and we appreciate that. However, the resolution offered did not reflect the impact of the situation. We were given the option to cancel the remainder of our stay and rebook elsewhere, which would have been difficult to navigate during the spring break travel rush.We would consider staying at the resort again, but in a different unit and with a different property management service.

Thank you for your feedback—we’re glad you enjoyed the views and the resort.
At the time of your stay, a required AC part was still in transit, and we regret the inconvenience. Prior to arrival, we notified you of the issue, offered a discounted rate, and provided the option to relocate to another unit within the resort.
To support comfort, the unit included multiple cooling options, with a total of 8 fans (ceiling, wall, and portable), and we delivered additional fans promptly upon request. The AC has since been fully repaired.
We’ve also replaced all towels and addressed the maintenance items mentioned.
We appreciate your recognition of our team’s communication and would be happy to host you again for a seamless stay.
The property is exactly as described, everything is nice clean and beautiful, we watched whales every morning and evening, a seal napped on our beach for a couple hours, no problems what so ever, great property thank you so much!!!!
