Reviewer Comments:
Kamaole sands is the best property in Kihei in our opinion. The grounds are beautiful and immaculately maintained, the staff very friendly and accommodating, and proximity to the beach is ideal. Some of the units could be updated and deep cleaned but otherwise a perfect stay.

This is our 3rd stay in this complex. Great location and close to the beach. This is our first time at this unit. It was comfortable with 2 twins beds in 1 room which is great for 2 kids. Loft has the queen bed. Place is well stocked. But kettle was broken so I couldn't boil water for tea. Recommend some oven mitts for taking casserole dishes out of oven. Great full size washer and dryer. Unit is right be office so short walk to the beach. Parking is convenient. Recommend a workable portable cooler and ice packs as would have been helpful for the beach....the one present was broken.
Would stay here again! Thank you!

The condo had everything we needed. We had 6 adults and it was comfortable for everyone. The only downside is that the condo got very warm during the day. With only one small air conditioner in the front bedroom, the back of the house and the loft especially were very warm. The place cooled off at night and sleeping was comfortable. We we’re out almost every day so the warm afternoons didn’t bother us to much. All in all the place was a perfect stay for a family of six.

We were very happy with how well-stocked this unit was. Even had some toys for our kids to play with. The view from the deck was amazing. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here.

Kamaole Sands is the perfect location for all of your Maui adventures. Beautiful beaches and activities are all within a short drive and Kamaole Park Beach III across the street is great for a walkable beach day. The pool area and bbqs are always in great shape when we come here. The one thing missing from this unit is AC in the main living room and upstairs loft bedroom. Maui was having a heat wave and it was difficult to settle in the loft and sleep with how hot it was.

We had an amazing time staying at this condo. We walked to the beach every day and could walk to restaurants. We are on the balcony every day over looking the pond/fountains and a view of the ocean. Great location!!

We stayed at Kamaole Sands for 11 days and as always it was fantastic! We highly recommend this condo as it was updated and well equipped inside the condo and for the beach. It was a bit hot at night in the loft. Air conditioning upstairs would be nice. Kids room was perfect. Really nice condo 2 minutes from the beach.

We found this unit to be unacceptable, especially considering the price.
We formerly owned a similar 2-bedroom unit in Building One at Kamaole Sands. We have been coming here almost every year for more than 30 years, and have occupied a number of different units in 6 different buildings, so we are well familiar with the standards and what one should expect.
On the plus side, Kamaole Sands is one of the most desirable condominium resorts on Maui, building One is one of the most desirable buildings, and this unit has a good location with a nice partial ocean view.
On the negative side, this particular unit is poorly furnished, dark and dingy, and lacking in any “vacation resort” feeling.
The unit is advertised as suitable for up to six persons, but it simply is not. The first floor bedroom has two small, older twin beds that are quite uncomfortable, with a tiny, outdated dresser, having drawers that are difficult to open. The closet is jammed full with plastic containers marked "For use by housekeeping ONLY" a huge vacuum and a guitar. Where are the guests sleeping in that room supposed to hang their clothes? The upstairs bedroom is inadequately furnished. There was no dresser at all there, just a bed, a small night stand and an ugly wooden chair when we moved in. To its credit, Rentals Maui had a dresser moved in after we complained, although it was damaged before it arrived.
Every other unit we have seen in Kam Sands has a TV in the living room and one in each bedroom; this unit has only one, in the living room. This is not appropriate, especially for a family with children.
Occupancy by 6 people, even if some are children, would require using the sofa bed in the living room. That is old and unattractive, probably left over from the original furnishings of the 1980s, and inadequate for sleeping. It is very uncomfortable to sit on, even after placing extra cushions on top. It creaks loudly when someone sits down, and our backs ached after trying to sit there for any length of time. The rest of the furniture in the living room was old and dingy. Two wicker chairs were so worn one could stick a finger through the arm rests. Again, Rentals Maui replaced these two chairs after our complaints, but the new chairs are uncomfortable and unattractive, like the rest of the furniture. The arrangement of the LR furniture is awkward, and the lighting is totally inadequate for anything other than watching TV. ADDITIONAL COMMENT AVAILABLE

Kamaole sands rocks! been here many times.
This unit was overpriced for the condition and cleanliness. Wicker arm chairs with worn out armrests. cushions need a clean. Washing machine seal needs replacing. (black stains from guests not looking after it). Upstairs bathroom marginal. Blobs of black stuff came out from under the sliding shower door. Black spots on caulking. No dresser in upstairs loft. lived out of my suitcase.
Kitchen was well equipped for our stay. No complaints there. Fantastic location and view. Lots of beach chairs and fun beach stuff. All in all an OK place if it was priced for it's shortcomings.

Sitting on the balcony enjoying breakfast overlooking the beautiful landscaping and ocean view was one of our favorite things about the unit. We enjoyed the tennis courts and the swimming pool. We found if we went right after lunch we didn’t have a problem getting lounge chairs. The Wednesday hula dancers and music at the pool was a nice touch. We will definitely be back again.

We loved the location of this property. Very central to get to anywhere on the island. The beach out front swimmable and very nice with showers. Restaurants and shops are within a mile. The only semi negative thing to say is the 2nd bedroom is a loft, so it is not enclosed and it get extremely hot with no AC. The kitchen was fully stocked but we were missing a wine opener:)

We had such a great trip! The rental was clean and in a great location for everything we wanted to do island. We had 6 adults and all slept comfortably at night. Would recommend it to anyone traveling to Kihei. Mahalo and THANK YOU!

Overall - 4.9
The only thing was that we got charged for two beach chairs after departing. They said they were missing 3 but because the chairs were not new they only charged us for two. I believe we could have misplaced 2 chairs because we were part of a 17 person family vacation spread amongst 5 condos in Kamaole Sands. I just wish there was a checklist of how many chairs we had to start with so we could have done our due diligence in collecting them all.
Small complaint. We had a wonderful time in a beautiful condo.

We loved the location of the property. We could see the ocean from our balcony. It was also a plus being on the top floor with high ceilings.
