Listen to the pounding surf! One bedroom, Penthouse unit, full-on-OCEAN VIEW. This beach front unit is literally 50' from the ocean.

New Tommy Bahama bedroom furniture with Cal King Ultra Pillow top mattress, 600 thread count sheets and bedding, plush bath towels, new 47 inch HD LED TV in living room and new sofa sleeper couch with a 7” mattress.

Central A/C, fantastic Ocean and beach views down the coast of south Maui. Free hi-speed internet, Free parking and Free long distance to all of North America and Canada.
*** Please Note the 2nd week of September the Pool is closed for annual service should you wish to stay during this time we offer a discounted price *** 9-13 to 9-21 for 2021
We supply our renters with some of the essentials that are costly to travel with or purchase in Hawaii. Bath items provided by us are laundry soap, shampoo and conditioner, hand soap, a bar of dove soap, blow drier, first aid kit, and 4 rolls of toilet paper. In the kitchen we stock spices, foil, plastic wrap, zip lock bags, trash bags, and dish soap among others. We provide vases for those beautiful Hawaiian flowers purchased roadside. A cooler, Beach towels and beach chairs are available for your use. We try to make your stay as easy, convenient and comfortable as possible.
The view across the ocean and down the south Maui coast is phenomenal while relaxing in our comfortable lanai love seat with your feet up on the ottoman. Sunsets are just amazing. Watch the water change from blue to pink even while you are cooking. It fills the room.
Sugar Beach is in an ideal spot. It is centrally located in the middle of Maui allowing for equal drive times to Wailea in south Maui or Lahaina in west Maui. It is the perfect location for somebody who wants to be on the water but wants to see all of Maui. Rest, Relax and enjoy Sugar Beach or wake up and head off to Hana or Haleakala National Park, the quaint town of Paia, or the Nakalele Blow Hole. You can see all of Maui with Sugar Beach as your starting point.
Sugar Beach Resort consists of two buildings, the Mill Building and Plantation Building. Sugar Beach #PH19 is located in the Mill Building. All condos are privately owned although for your convenience, there is a check in office on property with a receptionist where you will obtain your parking pass and pool codes.
Dina's Sandwich Shoppe is located on the grounds and is a great excuse to not cook. There is a gift shop, a Massage Therapist on site and Concierge/Activities Desk, as well.
We are located at the North end of Kihei on 5 miles of white sandy beach that is a wonderful walk in the morning to the bakery or afternoon for a Hawaiian Shaved Ice. Sugar Beach Resort is located at the base of the West Maui Mountains, right on the shore of beautiful Maalaea Bay. The resort is somewhat secluded, situated in between Kihei and the village of Maalaea. The location of the resort provides a perfect balance, offering oceanfront activities and atmosphere, as well as stunning views of both Haleakala and the West Maui Mountains.
The grounds are beautifully landscaped with a pool, Jacuzzi, dry sauna, putting green and gas BBQ's.

The Sugar Beach Resort grounds occupy about 3 acres of oceanfront real-estate in the middle of a long crescent of sandy beach on Maui's south shore. #PH19 has an ocean front view, with stunning vistas of the Pacific Ocean sunsets every evening.

Honeymoon

This was a great place for our honeymoon. Conveniently located between Lahaina and Wailea. Not far from airport. Pacific Whale Foundation just up the road, great whale watching excursion. Lots of great places to eat within reasonable distance. Plus the condo was super well stocked with all necessities. Really enjoyed our time there; clean, quiet, friendly and accommodating.

Amazing vacation!

The unit was clean and as described with views so beautiful we had trouble deciding whether to go out or just sit on the lanai and relax while watching the whales jump. Our departure flight was delayed by almost half a day, and the owners allowed us to stay late so we actually got to use the last day instead of sitting at the airport waiting. This is our fourth time to Maui and our favorite trip so far, would stay here again without question and will direct our friends and family to this unit as well!

Beautiful View @ Convenient Location

The condo was beautifully decorated with an absolutely beautiful view. I don’t think I’ve ever stayed someplace as well stocked as this place. They had beach chairs, towels, an umbrella and even a cooler to use. The location was very convenient to go south into Kihei, across the island to Paia to start the Road to Hana and to the north to Lahaina. We definitely maximized our time with staying in the middle. Not a lot of close restaurants to walk to, but everything was within a couple minute drive. We had a wonderful time!

Great Condo

We stayed 11/3-11/22. This condo was very clean and perfectly guest ready. Lots of quality supplies provided like soaps, shampoo, lotions, foil, wrap, dish and laundry soaps etc. Quality bedding and linens. Excellent view and location in resort. Loved the decor and vibe of this unit. Lots of families with kids dominating pool and beach area, so if you like an adult atmosphere be advised. We had several days of heavy winds making it hard to use pool and beach. We would definitely stay here again. Mahalo for the early checkin.

Maui Wannabies

The condo is well provisioned, however, the furniture somewhat dated. We were disappointed the couch did not turn into a bed since we prefer to fall asleep listening to the waves. We are not sure how this condo could sleep 4 without a hideaway. The PH description is a little misnomer as the unit is no different than any of the other 5 floors which if you take into consideration the elevators were not in operation half the time, the 6th floor (PH) becomes a disadvantage other than the view.

Good/bad - I was there for the fires

We usually visit the island in Feb/Mar. This was my first time during the summer - and first time staying at Sugar Beach Resort. I was on the island to spread mom's ashes in her favorite Maui places. First half was wonderful, everything was as we expected. Then the fires broke out and took away any desire to be out having fun while so many were suffering so much. We helped where we could, which is the best we could do. Every local had multiple horror stories. It was very eerie. The unit was perfect and very well stocked. But more than that, the Warden's went out of their way in being responsive to my three flight changes going home. They didn't have to go above and beyond, but they really stepped up to help. Can't thank them enough for their hospitality. The view from the penthouse is absolutely perfect. No complaints at all - would highly recommend staying there. If I'm ever in need again, this will be my first choice.

So much noise

The condo was beautiful and comfortable, but there was a MASSIVE construction project going on next door. We couldn’t hear each other speak in the condo, all day long, for 4 of our 6 days. The air conditioning unit let out a loud shrieking noise half the night. Property management told us tough luck on the construction and that they knew about the project but they’re not required to let the owners of the rented unit or us know in advance about it. Their advice was to see if the owners would let us cancel and to go try and rebook a different property. Put in a maintenance request for the AC and my cell phone number, property management said they called the house phone in the condo (which we weren’t in because of the unbearable noise) and the AC was never addressed. The unit itself is great but these two items had a big negative impact on our stay.

We have another waterfront vacation rentals in Parker, Arizona on the Colorado River. Listing Numbers #496480 and #329805 enjoy water sports with our teenage daughters in tow.

Why they chose this property

The purchase of this property was just the next natural step in our adventures. We were married on Maui many moons ago and this is our favorite island. We had to have this penthouse at Sugar Beach after sitting on the lanai, the views are amazing!

What makes this property unique

There are very few Maui Condo Resorts where you are literally 50' from the ocean with a 5 mile stretch of sandy beach. The views range from Makenna to Maalaea Bay with Molok'i and Lanai islands in the distance.
