About this property

Beachfront GEM of a Condo on Sugar Beach!

Kealia 202 offers FRONT ROW CENTER seats for whale watching, Maui sunsets, outriggers and more! It's a spectacular view and it's everywhere you look in this condo! If you want a view AND the best walking beach in Maui, this condo is perfect for you!

The condo is completely furnished Hawaiian style, with rattan, teak and other local materials. It's also fully supplied with everything you may need for cooking - and you couldn't ask for a better table out on the lanai!
This one-bedroom, one-bath is perfect for solo travelers, couples and small families. It has a queen size day bed as well as a comfy king in the bedroom which is perfect for the little ones.

You're just steps away from one of the best beaches on Maui, good for swimming, snorkeling, diving, paddle boarding or just sunbathing with a good book. The Maui Canoe Club is right next door and there are visitor paddles every week. You can take a great morning or sunset beach walk along Sugar Beach and in the winter months you'll see humpback whales blowing and breaching offshore!

Kealia Condominiums is the furthest north of the resorts on Sugar Beach and centrally located for easy access to the airport, upcountry and Wailea. The building and grounds have a great retro feel and there's a nice mix of residents and visitors. There's an elevator for easy access to both condo and parking garage.

Special note for GOLFERS: The owner is a member and can make arrangements for you to golf on the private King Kamehameha Golf Course.

Kealia Condominiums is a non-smoking property and as such there is no smoking allowed in the condo, on the lanai or in the shared areas such as the pool.

Wonderful
This was an amazing place to stay. I hate I have to leave. We loved hearing the sounds of waves right outside our door. We kept all windows and doors open to feel the breeze coming through. It nice you can swim in the pool or go out into the saltwater. We love Kihei!

Nice, but aged unit
Nice location on sugar beach. The grounds are beautiful. The unit is old. You have to plug in ceiling fans to turn them on. In the master bedroom you have to climb over a raised double bed to close the window and blinds. The pool is not heated and there is no hot tub. There is no pest control at the room. There were ants and lots of flying bugs. It was rainy and the bugs were intense, For all the added fees it’s not worth the cost. I recommend going further towards town and getting a nicer unit.

Amazing Views!
It's hard to beat the ocean view of this condo. The sunsets were beautiful and we could easily see whales breaching from the patio. The condo is conveniently located in a less busy side of town and is walking distance to some yummy local spots. Check-in/check-out are a breeze and the condo includes a private spot in a secured on-site garage, which we were really happy about. The condo is pretty close to how it is advertised in the listing and I agree with some other reviewers that it feels a bit dated but if you are in Maui, you hopefully won't be spending too much time in there anyway. We gave 4 out of 5 stars due to the cleanliness. In all fairness, the host gave us a solution for the issue we had and that made a big difference. Really, a good deep clean in this condo would make a huge difference for other guests. All in all, we enjoyed our time in this condo and our time in Maui!

Location, location, location!
If you want beautiful ocean views from your room and to be lulled asleep by the sound of waves, this is the place for you. The beach was very walkable (and many places in Maui it isn't). Opening windows allowed for trade winds to cool the place down, and the kitchen was fully equipped with plenty of dishes and glassware. Photos accurately depict the interior... Space is perfect for two adults or a couple with one child. A welcome basket was a nice touch, and the owners promptly addressed any questions I had. And the location.... just great!

About the host

Hosted by Denise Frey

Host profile image
Tony Hitchman and Denise Frey are partners in life and first visited Maui together in December 2019. They fell in love with Kihei and Sugar Beach on that visit and purchased their first condo in February 2020! Now they own both #202 and #302 at Kealia on Sugar Beach and share their beautiful vacation homes with others.
They especially enjoy when their children and grandchildren can visit and having both condos can make that even better!

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with this property at first sight. The view and easy access to the beach is a top priority for us and when we saw Kealia Resort we knew this was the place for us. There's a lack of pretension here that makes everyone more comfortable and they're able to relax and enjoy more than in larger resorts.

What makes this property unique

We live in this property part-time and therefore we care for it more personally than management companies.
