The place offers a lower price than almost anything comparable in the vicinity and is in a good location too. Just don’t expect luxury! It’s fine for those who need a comfortable place to sleep and eat some meals
For the location and having space for 4 people, this place is a bargain compared to anything else we saw. It was so nice to have beach chairs, boogie boards and a cooler at the unit. Nothing fancy, but can’t beat the price and overall clean!
This condo is just a two minute walk from one of Maui's best beaches. We LOVED the location. It's also located really close to several of our favorite Kihei restaurants. We took Uber from the airport and really didn't need a car. The price is super affordable and really all you need for budget accommodations. The condo is very clean and the bed is comfy. The furniture and decor is all very dated and has no ambiance or matching decorations...but that's not why we go to Maui. If you are looking for fancy or how a place "looks" this may not be the spot for you. But I highly recommend if you are looking for a budget friendly spot that's clean and in a perfect location. Aloha.
After suffering through delayed flights,we got to Maui at 4 am,only to discover we were locked out of our Condo. We had to wait outside in the dark until 8:30 am when the office opened. The condo was somewhat disappointing as it was very tired and poorly stocked. However, Val with the rental agency was great when we finally got in touch with her. She brought keys and offered to help with anything else. Location was great, but the condo was disappointing.
The building is situated on a quiet, end of the street with nice breeze, people are friendly. Staff at the resort were helpful. The cool ocean breeze hits the end of that street and it moves to the direction of the condo. Sitting or having meals at the deck is a must.
Convenient and centrally located condo, less than a block to a nice sandy and clean beach with 3 popular local restaurants right on the corner. It was a great stay and the price was right.
Me and my wife stayed here for about a week and it was overall a great experience. It’s important to note that this place doesn’t have an AC unit in it, but there are two electric fans. With the windows open and the fans blowing at night, my wife and I had no trouble sleeping and staying cool in the evening, but the place gets pretty during the day. There were also a lot of extra accommodations that were unexpected. In the closet, we found an air mattress and outside there is a chest full of beach stuff like some snorkeling kits and boogie boards. Overall, it was a great experience for the price.
This condo is an excellent location, steps to the beach, close to shops and restaurants. Includes all beach gear!
Great pool, bbqs on site are cleaned regularly.
Lots of parking.
Beautiful grounds.
Condo is excellent value for what you get
Played golf and enjoyed the proximity to where we played. Hideabed was not to comfortable and the ceiling fan did not work in the bedroom. Management was quick to respond.
Great location! Everything necessary for life is there, not new but for a fair price. Roosters sing loudly in the morning, I advise you to have earplugs. Thank you very much, would come back again.
Overall it was clean, accurate listing, a little too warm for my family to stay during the day with the temps above 85 when with the fans going, we bought another stand fan for the bedroom so they could sleep a little more comfortable. Perfect place though to cook a quick breakfast and then get home around 10pm after spending the day out.
No air conditioning, but fine in the winter months and great location

Great location, good value
This unit has a great location, a few minutes walk from the Kam beaches, it’s at the very end of the condo complex so plenty of light and view to beautiful flowers, bushes. The unit is a bit worn but well equipped, everything works, great value. Communication was easy.
Spent one week in this condo. Great location, nice pool area. The beach is steps away, several good restaurants very close. Grocery store within walking distance. Owner easy to reach and easy to communicate with, although we never got to meet him. Easy check in with lock box. Condo was clean, plenty of towels, etc. Kitchen was well equipped. The condo could use some updating and there is no air conditioning, but both of these issues were manageable. Nice stay.
For booking last minute, the place was OK. They cleaned everything before we got here but it is an older place with some issues. Not terrible but it could use some maintenance. But it has new carpet and it was clean.
Excellent location right across from one of the best beaches!
I was pleasantly surprised at how amazing the location of the condo was in relation to so many things within walking distance, and being directly across the street from the best of Kehei's beaches (Kamaole II beach). And only a 5 minute drive south to fancy shopping and dining in Wailea. The condo was in the very back so it was quiet and private drinking coffee on the balcony when the sun comes up to the glorious (and loud) sounds of many different types of exotic birds was amazing. The condo property was clean, even tho it was very old. Many permanent residents live there. The unit we stayed in is in desperate need of updating, as it appears to be original (30yrs old?), and the furniture and decor looks like a thrift store explosion. But I didn't care about that, as it was clean enough, beds were comfy, and we had what we needed (except a/c). There is no a/c, so I'm not sure I could handle that in the summer. It was unseasonably warm for December, but was manageable with all the fans. Not sure how I overlooked that in the listing, but I usually never stay at a condo that doesn't have a/c. It was only warm in the mid to late afternoons, but when in Maui you shouldn't be sitting in the condo at that time anyway!! Highly recommend for the price.
The property is in an excellent location, and the grounds are very clean.
The unit itself had some issues… There is no actual air conditioning, just 2 fans to use. The bathroom doesn’t have a fan, and the curtains in the bedroom don’t open or close. We found a cockroach in the bedroom, and one in the kitchen, as well as a gecko/lizard in the kitchen. There are itty bitty little bugs crawling around the kitchen and bathroom sinks, that didn’t seem to go away even if we wiped them up.
Other than that, the place was clean and we really loved the location being so close to the beach, and lots of Kihei activities.
We had a great time at the condo! Its the first time we go to Maui and didn’t get ocean view but I enjoyed the lush greenery view from the lanai. The place is really decent and good value for the $$. The living room is spacious and the condo has everything one need. The king bed was comfortable, the place has ceiling fans and extra fans too so it was pleasant to sleep at night. I particularly don’t like AC so if you want to have it in Hawai’i then go to the fancy resorts. I live in Seattle and it’s cold in here 9 months of the year so I really like the warm air from the tropics. Check in was a breeze. The place is quiet at night and we had a symphony of birds in the morning that was quite enjoyable. We had a little issue and management was quick to fix the problem. Overall a great stay! I recommend this place and would love to stay here again. Mahalo!
