Great property. Nice and quiet. The full size bed does need a refresh. We rotated it so we weren't inverted when sleeping. Would stay again. Everything you need is within a short walk.

This was the perfect place for a girls trip to Maui, plus a baby! The hosts extremely responsive and super helpful! Location is wonderful and close to so many good places to eat, walking, and the beach was only about 1/2 block to walk to. It was a quiet beach perfect for morning walks and afternoon rest! The condo had everything we needed for our stay and was very clean with great parking right out front. Would definitely stay here again!

Perfect stay!

The property's description doesn't do it justice! The location is exquisite, close to all amenities, and most importantly a short (even barefoot) walk to a quiet beach. The apartment has everything you can imagine for a comfortable stay. We are already dreaming of booking for next year!

Great stay

My husband and I had a great time in Maui and were very comfortable in this home. The neighborhood was great and the owners were very responsive. I know one review said the bed was small but it fit me and my husband just fine… and he’s 6+ feet tall.

James & Julie were great hosts! Communication was easy and the recommendations they gave us were awesome. The place was perfect! We had stayed at Kihei Garden Estates before but this place was our favorite by far! The outdoor comfortable lounge area was peaceful as we watched the parrots every morning. The place also comes equipped with everything you need! Games, beach toys, water football & volleyball, chairs, umbrella etc. This place really did have it all and we are very grateful! We left a fun card game of monopoly deal that we enjoyed to play outside since the seating was so comfortable. Highly recommend this place!

Steps to the beach was as advertised - 5 stars

James & Julie's property was as advertised, located in a quiet complex and away from the buzz of traffic. The kitchen had everything I needed and was functional. The location was perfect for me, close to the ocean, and a short walk to my church, the gym, restaurants, food trucks, and the grocery store. The morning sunshine on the lanai made a wonderful space to enjoy breakfast and coffee. Check in was seamless and parking was convenient. The bed was comfortable and I rarely used air conditioning, although it was available. The pool and grilling area were just a short walk across the grass and were very nice. If you're looking for an affordable place with conscientious owners, this is your place.

Great location and all the amenities suited my needs. Condo is located in a quiet neighborhood about a 2 minute walk to the beach; a 5 minute walk to Times grocery store; 5-7 minute walk to Nalu's South Shore Grill (a favorite of mine); and an easy drive to many other fun activities. My only complaint, and it is minor, is the size of the bed in the bedroom is only a full-size. It's ok for 2 children or 2 petite people. But, for 2 adults it would be cramped. I traveled solo, so it wasn't a big deal to me. But if I were traveling with my partner who is 6'5", we would've had to sleep on the pull-out sofa bed or separately.

Amazing stay! Highly recommend!

We absolutely loved this place! Perfectly clean! Stocked with everything beach vacationers would want....boogie boards, lawn chairs, snorkels, foldable wagon & beach towels. They were very accommodating and friendly! Nicely decorated! We would give it 10 stars if it was possible....They went way above and beyond and were very timely and attentive to any request. We absolutely lived it! No one would be disappointed with this place and hosts.
