Perfect getaway!

The room was exactly as advertised. The host was great with communication (huge plus to us.) The location couldn’t be any closer to the beach or water unless it was in it! The room was clean and felt like a home and not just a hotel room. If you’re looking for a place to stay, this is it. We’ll be back and would definitely recommend to anyone!!!

Right on the beach!

This unit was perfect for our eight night stay in Kihei. I loved that it was right on the beach. The beach itself was great as the water was usually very calm so I felt comfortable going in. Afterwards it was nice lounging on the grassy area. The kitchen had everything we needed. We'll definitely stay here again next time we come to Maui.

Perfect location overlooking the beach

Each morning we took long walks on the beach before our daily adventures which included beach bay snorkeling, molokini trip snorkeling, a drive to Hana, dining and sight seeing. Our evening were relaxing until bedtime when the sound of the waves crashing soothed us to sleep. The condo was well stocked with accessories for cooking and play. Highly recommend.

Peaceful Oceanfront

This condo is right on Sugar Beach, which is a quiet and beautiful beach area. The condo has everything you need, plus beach items. Chip and Charlotte are wonderful hosts and always available for questions. We have stayed here three times and would come again. There is also a small pool to cool off in if you need a break from the ocean. Love this place!

Love our stay. Great location!

Stayed for 8 nights. We loved the property, the view of the beach was amazing. Charlotte was great at communicating. The location was great being central on the island to be able to visit different areas. Close to restaurants and shopping. We loved that they provided beach stuff for us to use so we didn’t have to rent anything. The only thing we had a problem with was the beach gear was sandy from precious use but that didn’t stop us from using it and overall we had a great time and would stay here again! Thanks for having us!!

Beachfront Hang

The condo was just as I imagined....fantastic! It was not the most modern condo but it had what I wanted in a trip to Hawaii...beachfront with a great beach to walk on, beautiful ocean to swim in, and a deck to hang out with your friends in the afternoon and evening. The kitchen was well stocked, the living room with plenty of windows for view and sea breeze, comfortable bed, and a functional bathroom. Chip and Charlotte was easy to communicate with and the price was reasonable for the area. If we ever return to Maui this will be the place we hope to stay in.

Quiet Ocean Front Getaway

What a great place to stay. The hosts were kind and accommodating and their property is top notch. We were looking for something on the beach, but couldn't afford resort or top tier hotels. This place fit the bill perfectly. You can heard the waves on the beach 24 hours/day. Just about everything you could think of was included in the apartment. All your kitchen needs with basic pantry staples; full sets of towels, including beach towels, beach umbrellas, chairs, and multiple sets of snorkeling gear; cooler bags; etc. Place is clean and filled with natural light throughout. Sugar beach is an awesome, walkable beach. Not "off the beaten path" but definitely out of the hustle and bustle. Still an easy 10 minutes drive into the busier parts of Kihei, maybe 20 to Lahaina, and wherever else you'd like to go. Some awesome shaved ice and a bake shop, and a fruit market, just a few minutes walk down the beach. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend!

Absolutely breathtaking.

This place is the gem of Maui. I am from Atlanta Georgia and took a solo trip to a place I always dreamt of going. It’s everything I expected it to be and more. Safe, private, and exceptionally clean. The place is ocean front, and I mean, LITERALLY. You can’t get this close to the water without sacrificing your privacy and more money. Chip and Charlotte were very easy to get ahold of and their place is absolutely breathtaking. Completely renovated on the inside, I felt like a queen my entire stay. From waking up to ocean views right from my California king bed, to watching the sunset from the lanai after a long day of adventuring. This place is magical for sure and I intend on coming back in the future. From the bottom of my heart, thank you Chip and Charlotte for allowing me to experience Maui from your beautiful condo. It’s a vacation I’ll cherish forever and never forget.

Perfect location for us

Steps from the beach, 5min walk to amenities(fantastic farmers market run by the nicest folks on the island!) 10min drive to the center of Kihei. Full unobstructed views of beach and ocean from the lanai, dining and bedroom. I'm talking center court seats... Nicely maintained property with all the comforts of home and the added bonus of one of the nicest quietest spots in Maui. Our host went way beyond when our rental car crapped out... When we return to Maui, and we will... we'll book this place again. Thank You Super Host!

Holiday Get Away

We enjoyed our stay at the unit and our hosts were great in giving directions and communicating with us. The unit was perfect for 2 adults and steps away from the beach and ocean. Enjoyed the early morning beach walks and sunsets in the evening. We would definitely stay here again if available the next time we travel to Maui.
