Lovely stay in Kihei
We had a great stay. Jennifer was extremely responsive, and the check-in process was seamless. We used all the provided equipment including boogie boards, cooler, tennis and pickleball gear! The sunsets were as lovely as advertised. The location isn't very walkable, but you can walk on back roads to an Akamai coffee shop and a plaza with some good restaurants. We were a short drive from great snorkeling at all the Kihei and Wailea beaches, and it was convenient for the airport.

Ahhh Maui!
Coffee on the lanai in the morning, watching the sun rise onto the green Maui Mountains= heaven. In the evening the sunset from the lanai is a different painting each night. And watching the whales from the lanai is so much fun. The owners of this condo really care about providing a comfortable place to take advantage of the island. The location is central which makes it easy to go sightseeing in any direction. The condo is stocked with absolutely everything you need. No need to bring towels, beach chairs, etc. The kitchen is very well stocked and the check in is easy (no keys to deal with). We have stayed here two years in a row and hope to come back again. Thanks for another nice stay Jen and Jason!

They had us at Aloha!

We are Jen and Jason, proud parents to three daughters. Having all three girls now grown and out on their own (aka “off the payroll”) we finally had the opportunity to make a life-long dream come true! After many Hawaiian island vacations through the years (we got engaged on Oahu on our first visit many moons ago), we chose Maui as the island for us. When not on Maui, we live in Gilbert, Arizona - another beautiful place but alas without the ocean views. We are empty-nesters who, when not working, enjoy traveling to Maui, playing golf and spending time with family, friends and our cat, Roo.

We purchased Luana Kai D205 in March 2020 (great timing right? LOL). We are not investors and plan to spend as much time at our second home as we can. We are thrilled to also offer it to guests when we can’t be there because, well, it is just too nice to not share!

Why they chose this property

D205 had us at direct ocean view!

On our buying trip, we rented a unit through VRBO at Luana Kai. We instantly fell in love with its classic Hawaiian look and feel– it was not a large high-rise concrete jungle like some of the other condo resorts we had looked at. Its beautiful tropical grounds with tiki torches and Plumeria trees (my fav) and Monkeypod trees lining the road; its smaller, intimate pool area with a hot tub and outdoor kitchen; and, of course, its direct oceanfront location (without having to cross any busy roads), it felt like the Hawaiian home-away-from-home we had dreamed of.

What makes this property unique

Luana Kai’s location just north of the center of Kihei Town is quiet and away from the more crowded areas. It is an easy 10-15 min walk (2 min drive) to shopping, restaurants and groceries. Of course the beach right out front is great for activities such as paddle boarding, wind surfing, long walks and sun bathing …just ask the honu! (sea turtles).

Luana Kai is a short 15-20 minute drive from the Kahului Airport as well as Target, Walmart, Costco and much more.
