The condo worked out for us just fine! The only problem was if the resort had a shopping cart to help haul groceries to your condo! And, a few more benches along the sidewalk to take a rest from walking up hill. It would be nice if both pool areas were the same. The owner, Daniel, kept in touch with us which was nice. Enjoyed our stay!

One of the nicest rentals I’ve ever stayed at. Great balcony with an ocean view. Everything was very clean from the bathroom to the bed sheets. Furniture was comfortable. Beach chairs, towels, and umbrellas were a nice touch. Fully equipped kitchen and large washer and dryer to keep your clothes clean and sand free! Especially helpful as I was traveling light. Had one minor issue with check in as I couldn’t find the entry code, but Daniel was quick to respond and provide the code once contacted. Overall a great experience and would definitely go back!

This was a great rental! Short 5 min walk to the beach and close to many amenities! The owner, Daniel, was super-responsive to questions. He even brought an extra beach chair for us! Brand new washer-dryer unit was quite convenient. Enjoyed having breakfast on the breezy lanai. A great stay in Kihei!

This condo is cozy and perfect for two people. The kitchen and bathroom are especially well cleaned. The location is perfect: tucked away but still only a few minutes walk from the door to the sand of park two. Let the owner know if you want to use the pull out sofa, as there were no sheets in the unit for that bed when we stayed. New washer and dryer; beach chairs and umbrella were provided.
I recommend this spot!

Daniel was so great to work with! Everything was perfect. This unit was well-stocked with all the necessities. We loved the new washer and dryer, comfy bed and nice sofa. Such a convenient location, too.
We could walk the trails, to the beach, to shopping, and to many restaurants. Thanks so much, Daniel.

We were extremely happy with our rental, Daniel was great with all interactions and we would definitely stay again. The rental was just what we needed for the two of us. We loved the privacy of the lanai and the plants and birds were wonderful. The local restaurants within walking distance were great. The beaches across the street were easily accessible and we saw whales, turtles, and awesome sunsets.

First, i highly recommend this place. It is super close to the beach, Kihei's nightlife, restaurants, gas station, and the highway. Daniel was a great host, he sent us a lot of helpful information before hand. The check in process was fast and easy, the studio was clean and everything worked just fine. It was great to have a full kitchen since we did a couple of hikes, including the Haleakala sunrise, and we were able to make breakfast and lunch. Not only are you saving some money but there are places were you dont get many restaurant options (road to Hana, Haleakala, etc). There are some beach equipment (cooler, chairs, etc) that makes your day super fun, but if you need more there's Aunties beach rentals that have great prices and its about a block away. Mahalo Daniel, it was awesome! 🤙🌸

We were making a short trip to Maui after good time in Oahu. This is our second trip to Maui. This condo is located centrally for various activities. It has fully furnished kitchen and all the amenities required for both short term and long term stays. It is very close to Farmer's market on South Kihei Rd and we enjoyed fresh coconut water and mangoes there. Thank you Daniel.

We had a great time in Maui and really enjoyed your condo! Perfect location, fully stocked kitchen and great view! It is clear the owner knows how to ensure guest comfort, from the large safe, to the swimming gear, to the chairs and towels, he had everything covered! We are from the east coast so waking up early was easy. For those that need the condo to be completely dark at sunrise, the shades do not keep the sunlight out. Other than that, expecta fully stocked condo at an excellent location! Looking forward to a future visit to Maui!

I came by myself from Canada. This the first time I stayed in Daniel's condo. It was perfect. The condo was in a great spot - walking distance to everything - the beach, grocery stores, restaurants. I was woken up every morning to the birds singing and a view of lush greenery. It was private and quiet and perfectly stocked with everything I would need. Thank you!

This studio condo has it all. It is close to many activities and restaurants and at the same time in a quiet and serene area. We really enjoyed our morning walks to the west. All info relative to site-seeing,restaurants and directions provided by Daniel was very appreciative. We also downloaded a GYPSY App to our cell which was helpful with directions and provided a great history of Maui. We had a rental car for 2 weeks ,but it was only necessary for road trips to Hana, Haleakala and Lahaina . If our home in Eastern Canada were not so far away, we would definitely be back. South Kihei is a great vacation spot and this condo was perfect for my wife and I. Thanks again, !, Daniel.

The condo was perfect. Nicely located, very private, and so beautifully equipped! It really did have everything we needed for a relaxing, beach holiday. It was comfortable and quiet, and we enjoyed our stay thoroughly. I apologize for forgetting to sign the guest book, to let you know this. Anyway, thank you again. I'm rested and relaxed and ready to head into the office tomorrow morning.

It was my first time in Maui and Daniel's condo had everything I needed for the 8-days stay. Everything is as seen on the pictures if not better. Everything is as good as in past guests' reviews. The location is very convenient for both walking and driving. The Kihei Akahi property itself is 20 steps to the beach sand. The condo is located on block D which is the last building on the property. It is furthest to the beach but it is very quiet. You get to enjoy the mountain view when you come out of the building and the beautiful tropical plants and tress on your 2 minutes walk to the beach. It's breezy in the morning and in the evening. I only turned on the air-con for a couple hours if it was a hot day. I love that there is no neighboring balconies. My favorite time staying at the condo is having my breakfast on the balcony and enjoying the fragrance of plumerias and the beautiful view of the ocean and south Maui mountain.
I always get a quick response from Daniel whenever I have any questions about the condo or Maui. Really appreciate Daniel letting me check out late so I could pack up with no rush.
Looking forward to coming back1!

My best friend and I take a girls trip in the summer since we live hours from each other. This year we chose Maui and used VRBO for the first time. We were very nervous and there were SO many options out there we just happened to finally choose one and man were we happy with how it turned out. Everything was provided in the condo. Lots of towels, even sunscreen, a nice stocked kitchen, washer/dryer and a fan! It was a perfect central location on the island of Maui, close enough to not have super long drives to all the things we wanted to do. On top of that, upon booking, Daniel emailed us several lists of helpful hints. Great places to eat, find entertainment, even a great car rental place suggestion. We used many of his tips that he sent and were very glad we had them! I highly recommend this location and if we travel to Maui again will be staying here! Mahalo for everything Daniel!

My girlfriend and I recently rented out the studio at Kihei Akahi through Daniel, and it was fabulous. The unit provided a great spot to unwind and end the day full of beach and sun.
The place was super clean and had a nice cross breeze based on its location. Minutes from the beach with a quick walk down the driveway. Everything is provided: cooler, beach chairs, boogie boards, etc, etc. (The snorkel gear was a bit worn down, but that's ok, since we went with rental gear). The space was really quiet (which was a pleasant experience in spite of it being close to walkway and stairs. I've been to Maui quite a few times and rented other places, and this condo is great and would go there again. Up front, quick with service, and honestly described. A+!

Me and my girlfriend found this condo to be amazing. The place was very clean and cozy. We enjoyed the kitchen as well as the balcony. We also loved the beach gear and cooler in the kitchen. This place is close to the beach and is a convenient walk to many great places in Kihei.

I found this condo to be a perfect place to stay on my solo vacation! I wanted to be basically at the beach and walking distance to food and shops. The condo is a great location, with a nice view, and a nice breeze in the afternoon and evening. I never even turned on the air conditioning!
The condo has everything you'll need: washer/dryer, internet, kitchen stuff - pots and pans, plates and silverware, and of course the beach stuff - bamboo mats, towels, toys, and cooler.
It was well decorated, comfortable, and convenient. Daniel was friendly, easy to get in touch with and responded quickly. And he really helped me out with a late checkout on my last day so that I could enjoy a long morning on the beach before my flight out in the evening. Overall, great place to stay and so glad I chose this one!

My wife and had a pleasant week in South Maui at the Studio Condo. Very clean. Highlights included the lanai which had a unique bonus to it: a few acre tree canopy with incredible tropical bird activity and pleasant aromas drifting in from the flowering flora. Daniel and his staff also provided nice amenities for our time there as well as thoughtful touches for a trip to the beach - chairs, boogie boards, towels, and the like. An additional bonus is that it was very quiet most all the time. When you consider the cost, I would argue it would be difficult to find a much better value. Thank you Daniel and your assistants!

This studio condo located in the South Kihei Akahi complex is a gem. Everything Daniel said is true. It is clean and nicely decorated and has beach chairs, boogie boards, coolers, beach towels, etc. The kitchen is also stocked with pots, pans, plates, etc. Unit also has Wifi.
Air conditioner not needed because of the lovely trade winds and I enjoyed the birds from the lanai. The beaches and shopping are just minutes away.
Thanks Daniel. See you next year.
Mahalo,

This condo is wonderful! This was the fourth time my husband and I have been to Maui and to Kihei Akahi and this was the best condo yet. Everything written in the listing is true. This condo is clean and decorated so nicely. It's so comfortable and it's stocked with necessities. The lanai is an awesome place to catch the sunrise or sunset or to just relax and take in the beautiful surroundings. Daniel is very helpful and a pleasure to work with too.
Kihei is an awesome location. You can walk to amazing beaches and there are plenty of restaurants and shops too. Kamaole II beach and Moose McGillycuddy's are a couple of our favorite spots. I have and will continue to recommend this property to friends and family. I am already looking forward to our next visit :-)

Although my stay was only for a few short days, it was perfect for what I needed. Kihei Akahi is my favorite place to stay and this studio certainly did not disappoint!! And I have to add the place was simply immaculate!!! If you are looking to enjoy Maui on a budget, do not hesitate to stay here. The owner was super great to deal with. Mahalo to him for sharing his place with me.

Aloha Daniel,
Mahalo for allowing us staying at your studio last week. It is everything that we've looked for. The studio setup is very thoughtful from furniture to kitchenware & beach gears. We usually miss home when traveling but not this time. Your studio is very beautiful and most of all it is very comfortable. Wish we could stay another week. Definitely would stay here again and recommend this to everyone.
Happy Holidays!!!!

This little studio was the best home away from home we rented on Maui! It was clean, updated, and Dan provided pretty much everything we needed: towels, boogie boards, iron, dishes, etc. Everything works perfectly and we did not even need to run the air because of the condo's location and the winds. The location was great - close to everything. We had a car because we wanted to explore, but you really dont need one if you stay here. We have no complaints and will definitely rent here again when we come back. Thanks Dan for everything!

My husband and I had a fantastic stay here. I've been to Maui many times and have rented through many owners on VRBO. Although I've never had a bad experience, I've never had such a carefree time as with this owner. He is very easy to get in touch with and from my initial questions to signing the contract to entering the condo, everything was super easy and convenient. Our deposit was refunded to our credit card four hours after we left.

What a awesome place to stay! Seriously, I can't say enough good things about the condo and owner. This was my first time staying in a condo on Maui and it was a wonderful experience. The condo is super clean (thanks Leanne), nicely decorated, and very well maintained. The grounds were beautiful and the unit was comfortable and quiet. Everything you need is right there from beach towels to dishes and pots and pans. I loved sitting on the lanai, looking at the beautiful flowers, and enjoying the island breeze. It really is a beautiful studio. Good restaurants and shops are a short walk away and three beaches are right across the street. Daniel was always quick to respond to all my questions and provide any information I needed and the refund of my security deposit was super fast. This truly is a vacation paradise!! Thanks again Daniel. I hope to be back.
