1st time in Maui

We did not spend much time in the room, but the condo was nice and full kitchen had everything you could need to prepare meals, if you would choose to. Resort amenities were very nice and staff was super friendly. The view from this room was ok, but the resort has a great beach area. The parking lot next door had several food trucks each night, so dinner is super easy, with a variety of options!! I would stay again!!

Great Resort

Overall great experience and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Host was very responsive and everything detailed on the site was exactly what was available. Only request was that they have the flexibility to extend checkout to 11am; similar to my family and friends who also stayed at the resort.

Cute place, great location

We enjoyed our stay, the unit was a perfect size for a couple. The resort was beautiful and in a great location. The unit itself could use some upgrades- the curtains were difficult to open and close, the lighting above the bathroom sink was a little outdated. Overall great place.

The property was amazing. Location couldn’t be better! It was a little annoying that next door people worked play pickleball until late at night. But honestly everything else was so perfect, it’s hard to complain about it.

Low key resort with nice pools, pool bar and restaurant, shops, gift shop and convenience mart with alcohol, limited groceries, snacks, candy, protein drinks, all at reasonable costs. The room was at the farthest end of the resort. A map indicating it's location would be helpful. There was no pullout couch as pictured/featured. A new mattress is desperately needed. Also, a pizza cutter would be a plus. Overall, the studio met our needs, was clean, with extras like wake boards and beach chairs. The freezer also has an automatic icemaker which was quite nice. The Food Truck lot should also be featured along with local Time grocery store.

The resort itself is very nice. The actual studio needs some updating and some fresh paint. The studio doesn't have a dresser which would be a plus.

Nice studio,

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Studio unit, at the rear of the property, overlooking Honokowai stream and Papakea resort. Pretty quiet during the day. It’s a good spot if you don’t like the noise from the pool area. Host was friendly and responded promptly to questions. I’d stay there again

It’s a little further from the pool and ocean than the more expensive condos, but we still enjoyed the pool and the ocean the same as everyone else, just for probably significantly less money.

Never again

My family have been to Maui many times now and always stay at the same place, with Costco travel. This time we decided to change it up and will never again. The room did not have a pull out couch like pictured, so my daughter had to sleep on the floor. The two large burners on the stove did not work. The internet to watch Netflix at night did not work. If I had known it would be that bad I would never had spent my hard earned money!! Never again.

Good experience overall

Pros: clean spacious unit and good location. Nice grounds/pools. Great beach access. Cons: check-in/check-out times too rigid. Had to wait 4 hours with my bags when I arrived. Bathroom is dated and toilet made a terrible noise with every flush. Not enough towels. Communication with property manager was a bit challenging.

We love Maui!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The room was comfortable although there was not a pull out couch. The evening we arrived there was a problem with water leaking so there were 3 maintenance people in and out of the unit while we were in our pajamas trying to get some rest after a long travel day. The coffee was nice but no coffee filters. We also thought there was in suite laundry as we were told about the 30 gallon water tank so to consider this while showering and doing laundry. All in all we still enjoyed our visit and love Kaanapali Shores!

OK for the price

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This condo is in a great location, and has a nice pool. Overall, the actual condo was sufficient. The tile grout on the floor needs a cleaning, the bathroom window and sliding doors make a noise with high winds, the bedding is very cheap, and pillow are not comfortable. The kitchen has everything that you would need to make food. The condo was a little tight in space, and the TV was positioned next to the bed, making it impossible to watch TV from the bed... But you do not come to Maui for the television. You can walk to shops and restaurants from the condo, and it is a short walk to the boardwalk. The beach right off of the hotel didn't have a lot of sand to lay out on, but there were awesome beaches a short walk down the boardwalk. The condo was about a 45 minutes from the airport. Overall, we liked the location, and the price made this condo a good option.

Good value, nice stay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family of 4 stayed for just under a week and enjoyed our stay. The unit is at the end of the building so it was quiet and felt private. Balcony overlooks a canal that wasn’t the prettiest but it was nice to sit out with a coffee in the morning. The room itself was ok, our bed didn’t have a headboard which felt strange and the sofa could use a deep clean. Kitchen had everything we needed and bathroom was ok. There was a small cooler which was nice to bring to the beach and pool. There was unfortunately some work in the lobby during our stay so there was plywood covering the the whole view to the back garden and had to walk through scaffolding to get to the pool area. We enjoyed the pool, nice and clean and wasn’t too crowded. No bar service at the scenic pool but the restaurant overlooked the other rectangle plain pool. There is a small coffee shop in the lobby and a small shopping arcade. The grocery across the street was very convenient.

It was okay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Who is definitely clean but a little rundown. Lots of dings on the furniture and looks like it hasn’t been updated for a decade or more. There are multiple posts about the “screaming toilet”. It is ridiculously loud, and I would think after so many guests have complained about it disrupting their sleep, you would’ve replaced the toilet by now. That’s a pretty simple (and inexpensive) repair. The only other thing I would say is that the condo REALLY needs a dresser. There is a large audio/visual cabinet in the corner under a wall-mounted TV. That cabinet could easily be swapped out for a 4-drawer dresser (or a cabinet that has shelving and drawers). That simple change (and a normal toilet) would have made the stay so much more pleasant.

Lulled to Sleep by trade Winds!

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My wife and I enjoyed our stay very much. Our only constructive comments are as follows and are ultra picky so please remember as you read this we Had A Lovely Time and happy hour by the pool is something not to be missed!!And the title of this review is so very accurate. The winds blow at this end of the island more consistently then in Kehei and at night you will love how pleasant the winds are for sleeping.Constructive Comments:1) A written description of the responsibilities that exist between the private rental and the Hotel. As we discovered the hotel has very little to do with the room set up including the phone. All the connections to the front desk e.t.c. are not hooked up. My only concern regarding this was safety. What to do/ who to call in an emergency. With whom lies the responsibility? I would suggest that any guest ask for the phone to be hooked up. I discovered this our last couple of days. All you have to do is ask the front desk and they set it up with a push of a button.2) We did not know where to put the full garbage bags. Is there a garbage disposal we should use? 3) Is there an onsite laundry unit in the hotel?Loved it and highly recommend staying in this unit.
