About this property

Beach Front Ocean View Penthouse Kealia Resort Condo - Sugar Beach

Aloha and welcome to your oceanfront getaway at Kealia Resort!

This beautifully updated, fully air-conditioned 1-bedroom condo offers stunning views of the ocean, West Maui mountains and tropical gardens, and is just steps from the beach and the oceanfront pool. Bright, open, and modern, the space is thoughtfully designed for your comfort and relaxation. The bedroom features a comfy king bed, flat screen TV, plenty of storage, and a cozy sitting nook with amazing views of both the ocean and the mountains.

Start your mornings with coffee on the lanai while listening to the waves—and during whale season (Dec–May), you can even spot whales right from your seat! The fully equipped kitchen includes all the essentials—plus pantry basics like cooking oil, seasonings, condiments, and more. You'll also have a private washer and dryer with detergent, extra towels, and a Beach chairs, towels, and a cooler—everything you need to head straight to the sand.

Kealia Resort sits beachfront on peaceful Sugar Beach—South Maui’s longest stretch of sand. It’s the last complex on the beach before Maʻalaea, offering a sense of seclusion and serenity that's hard to find. Enjoy a sunset BBQ, read under the shade trees, or take a long, leisurely beach walk just steps from your door.

I maintain a high standard of hospitality and cleanliness—so you can book with confidence. Come experience the magic of Maui, with aloha.

Great condo

We came to Maui for our daughter’s wedding and after a wonderful weekend In Kaanapali we thought staying in a different location on island would be nice. The condo was perfect, loved the view and we were right on the ocean. Lydia was a great host and I would recommend this place to any couple

Great View, Clean & Convenient, Central Location

We’re very happy with this condo. The location is convenient and makes it easy to explore Maui in all directions. The sound of the ocean and view from the deck were excellent. The condo was very clean and exactly as described. We would definitely stay here again. Outrigger canoeing and paddle boarding are within a short walk down the beach.

If you need a centrally located place to stay on Maui without paying resort prices, this is a great option. After a few nights in Wailea, my wife and I stayed here for two nights so that we were near the harbor that our Molokini Crater boat tour departed from (7min away) and so we had quicker access to the west side of the island. It was clean, comfortable, safe, and had great views. It even had with several little things that were a big help mid-trip: beach chairs, laundry pods, and kitchen utensils/plates/cups.The host Lydia was very communicative from booking to check out, providing extensive directions and quick responses that made the stay seamless. Thank you!

Disconnect perfection!

This is a sweet space that offers a clean, quiet and welcoming home away from home. Our favorites…the kitchen, lanai, beach front, walking to the bake shop, central to everything, clean linens and the incredible communication with the owner. We will return!

Wonderful Condo

We were totally pleased with the entire process of booking, checking in, staying, and departure of Lydia's property. The ocean view is spectacular and her condo has a warm, homey feel to it. Our light arrived early and she was even able to get us checked in before the normal time. The full kitchen and washer/dryer were a huge benefit after 10 days on other Hawaiian islands. We definitely can recommend this condo to others looking for Maui accommodations.

It is right on the beach, the views from the balcony and windows are priceless. The Kelia property is a little older but kept up nicely. This condo is nicely decorated, clean, cute, and comfy. Lydia is very responsive and accommodating. We rented a jeep (which we highly recommend if exploring the island) and she gives you a dedicated parking spot! My husband & I had the most amazing vacation in Maui celebrating our anniversary and birthdays. Mahalo

Great for two people

This unit was great for my husband and me. Beautiful location, view, great beach and delightfully decorated and supplied.. The only downside was if you wanted to invite friends: no guest parking or dining table and limited space inside for more than two people. We would stay here again and make other arrangements with friends.

Perfect condo for relaxation

Just spent a week at this condo and it was beyond perfect. Right away we felt so comfortable and right at home and never wanted to leave. The condo was super clean and the view was to die for. We loved being able to sit on the balcony and enjoy our morning coffee and also having a perfect view of the sunset every evening. So peaceful. The building was also very quiet and the bed was super comfortable. Would definitely book again next time we visit Maui.

Second stay here!!

This property is so convenient for everything. Feels like a private beach. Everything the host has listed is spot on! We love the coziness, listening to the waves crash at night, the wildlife and roosters from the nearby wildlife refuge… We found this time that we could walk the beach to a farmer’s market, ABC store, and a little further for more things. Short drive to Maui Aquarium and Tante’s restaurant…and to the heart of Kihei, Kihei Caffe (must have coconut/pineapple/banana/macadamia nut pancakes), and Coconut's for the best island fish tacos. Thank you, Lydia, for being flexible with check in and so helpful. Until we stay again…

Beautiful Stay at Quiet Condo with incredible views

My mom and I stayed here as a much needed respite from my father’s passing. The condo was everything we needed, well appointed and very clean. The property is perfectly situated not far from the heart of Kihei, which is very cute with lots of good restaurants and food trucks. The best part here though was the stunning views of the ocean from the lanai, sound of the waves lulling you to sleep and direct sugar beach access. There’s also a lovely pool on-site as well. Lydia was very helpful in calling to warn us of a minor flying insect issue caused by the weather and offered to have cleaners come, we appreciated her attentiveness.

Exactly what we expected!

Many times there is something to be desired when checking in to a property because the photos highlight the few best parts. However, walking in we were so happy it was exactly perfect and what we expected! Whale watching from the balcony was great and the comfort of the condo amazing! Location, location, location! Nice quaint quiet spot but near everything! Property so pretty and nice to hang out outside! We are very happy with everything here!

Wonderful stay

This property is in a great location central to everything in Maui. So close to the airport, south Maui and West Maui and the primary harbor for taking whale watching and other cruises is 10 minutes away. The beach right outside the condo will take you for miles with very few people as there are no hotels, etcsince you are in north Kehei away from all the big hotels and resorts. Your view from the balcony is wonderful and you will have the best seat in the house for beautiful sunsets. There was only one negative for me and that was there is a lot of road noise as a major road is nearby. The waves from the ocean drowns out most of the noise but I am sensitive to road noise. However I would stay here again as Lydia is s wonderful host and very responsive.

Sunsets and sunrises, walks on the beach…

What an amazing, relaxing getaway. Just what we wanted. Perfect location, centrally located, everything close by! No crowds on this part of the beach…views from the lanai were perfect, including NYE fireworks! The best part was opening the windows at night and being lulled to sleep by the waves crashing and hearing roosters crowing in the morning. The property had everything we needed and then some… bed was so comfortable. Having the outdoor gear was a bonus… we loved boogie boarding in the evening just steps away from the property. Our host was responsive, attended to our questions immediately. All we could ask for. Thank you!!! We will be back!
