Come vacation at Kahana Sunset, a quiet, lushly landscaped, beautiful resort on secluded Keone Nui Bay. Swim from our sandy beach, snorkel with turtles, enjoy spectacular sunsets, barbecue on our outdoor built-in gas grills—all without having to leave the complex! We are ideally tucked away between busy Kaanapali and elegant Kapalua, close to the action but removed from the crowds and noise. We are family-friendly with a children’s pool adjoined to the adult pool.

Our two-bedroom, two-bath townhouse style unit has direct ocean views from both lanais. The kitchen has granite countertops, solid wood cabinets, stainless steel fridge, dishwasher, glass electric cooktop, microwave, and countertop convection oven. It comes fully stocked for cooking and entertaining. There is a washer/dryer in the unit with its own hot water heater. Covered parking is conveniently located right outside our door—no need to drag groceries or bags across parking lots, through lobbies, and up elevators! Our unit is ideal for families or couples as each bedroom has its own bathroom.

We completed a remodel in 2017, including new tile flooring on the main level, new tile backsplash and stainless steel appliances in the kitchen, new master bath vanity with granite countertop and wood cabinet, new master bedroom furniture, new TVs in living room and master bedroom, new ceiling fixtures, and new paint throughout. A/C was installed throughout the unit in March 2020.

Our family is excited to offer our condo to you. As San Diegans who have been traveling to Maui since 1980, we think this is the ideal spot to vacation. We've owned our unit since 2010.

This was the most perfect location! The view was beautiful, the property was stunning, and the condo was perfect! We will absolutely be coming back to this location.

Our family of seven had a great time and were very comfortable in this rental. We liked the two balconies, found the kitchen well stocked, and the location close to all we wanted to do in Wedt Maui. We would stay again without hesitation. Mahalo for the memories!

We had an amazing time at Kahana Sunset D5. It was the perfect place for our family vacation. The unit was clean and well-stocked. The grounds were beautiful and the beach was perfect for our kids to play. We got to see the sea turtles every day of our vacation. We would definitely stay here again! The management and the owner were very responsive and helpful.

Our family of 5 booked this property for our first trip to Maui and it did not disappoint. It was clean, spacious enough for our group and comfortable. We especially enjoyed the two lanais and the gorgeous views of the grounds and ocean. The grounds were well maintained and we also made use of the pool and private beach where we swam with some turtles. Liz was nice enough to provide beach chairs, an umbrella and beach towels. The parking spot was tight for a minivan but could not be more convenient as it was right in front of the door, making it easy to load and unload our stuff. We loved the location in West Maui as it was close enough to Lahaina, the Kapalua Coastal Trail, some of the best snorkeling beaches and the Nakalele blowhole. Groceries were less than a mile away. I would not hesitate to book here again!

Loved the location, ac a great bonus in the afternoon, can easily sleep at night with fans and open doors/windows. Kids and I loved the beach, it is definitely one of the best private beaches and there are turtles! Would stay again

Very relaxing atmosphere. Loved having our own private beach with a fabulous view from the condo. Great snorkeling with sea turtles.

Beautiful views off a nice balcony was definitely the best part of our stay. The kitchen was very well equipped to handle all of our cooking needs. It was very surprising there was no oven, only a small toaster oven/convection oven. The two bedrooms were great for us with the bathrooms as part of the bedrooms. Furniture could use some updating, but it wasn’t a deal breaker for us. The complex has a very nice and immaculately kept grill area. And though not something the owner has control over, the parking spaces are very narrow. The plus side to that is we were able to park right outside our front door.

Love the location of this property. Gorgeous views on the lanais. We had a fantastic vacation and plenty of space for a family of 4. The lower level could use a deep cleaning and the second bedroom is very dark with little natural light.

Very accurate with the descriptions. View was amazing just like in the picture.

We loved this location because it wasn’t in a super busy area and the views were beautiful!! It was close to our two favorite places in Maui, Honolua Bay and DT Fleming beach.

The property was perfectly situated in Napili right off a cute little cove. We loved having a small kitchen (only lacked an actual oven) and the ability to make our own meals. The parking, WiFi, entry, pool and amenities were exactly as needed. I would recommend to any family wanting a nice, quiet part of Maui to stay in…but close to the best beaches.

Our family had a great time at Kahana Sunset and particularly this condo. The condo is thoughtfully updated and provisioned, and every aspect seems catered to families just like mine. The A/C is a rare luxury. The kitchen is well stocked so you could actually prepare decent meals there. There are also nice BBQ grills and ample shaded picnic space on the grounds for cooking out. The condo's two lanais were wonderful for additional outdoor space. Beach towels, chairs and even soft coolers were provided! I have never been to a condo that had all of these needed beach vacation items all together for renters use, and it was a huge benefit. Sunsets and the views to Molokai were amazing. The sandy beach is small, but there is a sandy beach (which can be rare in HI), and some pretty decent snorkeling from shore, which we enjoyed. The pool is great, and my teenage kids loved playing soccer and football on the grassy lawn. The grounds are immaculate with loads of fresh local plants and flowers, and even mango trees! We enjoyed some recently fallen mangoes, and then the wonderful caretaker noticed my kids collecting them, and helped them get some more from the trees! This trip was a celebration for my daughter's high school graduation, and we made so many wonderful family memories we will always cherish. I can't thank Liz and her family enough for the magical week my family was able to have at their condo. This is the Hawaii I love and remember and will always come back to if I can. MAHALO!!!

We stayed in the condo for an entire week. It’s location was great and close to great snorkeling at Kapalua and Honolua. We actually liked snorkeling right out of the beach at the condo. It’s private and not too many people. We had 6 people (larger adults/teens), and this condo fit us all well. The upgrades that have been done are nice, and it was so important that this condo have A/C. It does, and we ended up not even using it the whole time because the breeze is so nice! If I’m being picky, there is no true oven. We had to bake some Costco meals we bought in an air fryer, but we made do. Cleanliness doesn’t get 5 stars because while the major surfaces were clean, all the door jams had dirty fingerprints that could have been wiped, and we had one countertop get bugs on it and get all over someone’s backpack upstairs. After cleaning that dirty counter and spraying bug spray, they didn’t return. Lastly, supplies for 6 grown people were very stingy and we ended up having to buy way more toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap, etc. than was left for us. The front office made it clear she had nothing to do with rentals and could not help us with extra supplies. Aside from those minor things, it was a great place and I would recommend it to others!

Our 2nd stay at this property & the 1st time in Unit D5. Perfect view & a short walk to the beach, pool & BBQ's. Condo has been updated, has AC in all rooms & very comfortable beds. Beach is small but private & you may run into a resting turtle or 2. Kapalua Market is 10 minutes away, is well stocked & has a great deli. I will definitely stay here again.

Great choice in Maui if you want to be away from all the big resorts but still close enough to do everything you want to do. Small private beach was great for a quick swim or would be perfect for little ones.

Was a good location, walking distance from the bay as well as a small grocery store and some restaurants. One of the best parts is being able to park 5 feet from the front door with no steps in the way.

First time ever in Maui. so glad we choose this property. Great location to stay at northwest Maui. The condo floor plans just perfect for a family of 5. We stayed 4 nights in this Very well kept, clean and accessoriesed condo. Liz the host is honest and responsive. . The condo has covered parking next to the condo entrance door - makes everything, especially with kids and wet sea gear -so much easier. The complex is well maintained, and has an easy beach access.

We loved our stay here, the room is great and we appreciated the AC and the laundry facilities. We loved the easy access to both the pool and the beach. What a treat to watch sunsets from our balcony and to see sea turtles in the water. We’d love to return someday!

Second time to condo. It has everything: pool, private beach, views. Kids swam, caught geckos, and picked limes/mangos/coconuts all on the property. Saw turtles daily, BBQ’d nightly. Without crazy crowds and fighting for parking. Best value for Maui. Highly recommend.

The condo was lovely, but the highlight for us was the beach right on the property! We have always had to drive to the beach on all our previous visits to Maui, but not this time! Sandy beach, easy walk In. And snorkeling alongside the turtles! Right in sight of the condo!

This property was great for our family of 7. It met or exceeded my expectations in every way. I put 4 stars for "Location and neighborhood" simply because I think the ideal location would be further South so you're more centrally located on the island, but honestly it's not bad and the neighborhood is great. I also put 4 stars for "Overall" because although I knew it didn't have A/C, ideally air conditioning would make it a 5. I travel a lot for work and would say that if I were to compare this to the standard hotel ranking system this would be similar to a 3-3.5 star hotel like a Hilton Garden Inn or Marriott Courtyard. The provided extras like beach towels and beach toys were great. Saved use from needing to pack extra.

Our entire family felt right at home due to the top-notch services that Liz provided. She was in constant communication with us and resolved any issue/question we had immediately. Owner like Liz are what all VRBO places should look to as an example. The unit was beautifully decorated and everything we needed for our stay was provided. The unit was not air-conditioned but the ceiling fans and floor fans provided along with the wonderful ocean breeze made tropical living do-able! Being right on the ocean and the ability to snorkle and see all the beautiful sea life ten feet from shore was worth it. Every morning and evening sea turtles came right up on the beach to rest, offering some amazing photography moments. The grounds are well-kept and safety is not an issue at all. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Nice, clean, & comfortable. We are lucky to have found this place. We didn't feel like we were in Maui, until we arrived to this property. Turtles swimming with the kids everyday. Seen whales breaching the surface, from the lawn. Sunsets were amazing from the 2 balconys.

Liz's home is so warm and inviting, as soon as you walk in through the door you see this beautiful view of the ocean. My husband and I stayed here with our parents and we had everything we could need in paradise. The pool was awesome and there is a beach in front of the property, the parking was super easy! The sunsets are gorgeous to watch while sitting between the pool and the beach. Liz was great with communication, she was awesome to interact with and always did her best to accommodate us, I would highly recommend her place for your next Maui trip! Liz if you are ever in Falls Church, VA, we are on Airbnb. We'd love to host you!

Wonderful property; peaceful and thoroughly enjoyable - everything one needs for a home away from home on vacation!

The view and the beach were beautiful, however; the unit needed a little work. At first glance, everything looked clean but upon closer inspection, we discovered that the cupboards were filthy (food and fingerprints), the walls in the master bathroom were full of yellow condensation stains and the shower tiles were dirty. One last thing; I would highly recommend changing the carpet to vinyl, tile, etc. It would be much more appealing and less dirty. Overall, it is a nice unit but could be a great unit with a little attention to detail. Thank you!

We had an absolutely terrific stay at this condo. In the past I've stayed on Maui in a high rise, "Hilton style" complex. This complex was smaller, more intimate, with a real local feel. The condo, the pool area, the barbecues and common areas were super clean and the view was spectacular. I could hear the surf all night from the bedroom. Loved it! The surrounding area on the west end is great too. We barely left the vicinity as there is plenty to do. Napili beach (rated as one of the best beaches in the world) is just down the way and there is plenty of shopping, restaurants and bars close by. Whalers Village is a short drive and the Times Grocery store is just up the road as well. Sally, the concierge in the complex office was very helpful and Liz, the owner is great to work with. Thank you Liz! We'll be back!

Kahana Sunset is our favorite place to stay on Maui. D5 was perfect for us. It had everything we needed and was very comfortable. It has been updated beautifully! Only steps to the pool and beach and a short drive to Kaanapali, Kapalua and Lahaina. Kahana Sunset has a nice, private beach- it is nice to get away from the crowds at Kaanapali. It was very easy to book this unit from Liz. She quickly responded to our inquiries and was very prompt at getting us all of the information we needed to get checked in. Our family had 7 units booked at Kahana Sunset and D5 was by far one of the nicest ones! Thank You Liz!

We had a wonderful trip and this place was perfect! It has a nice living area with the kitchen downstairs and two bedrooms upstairs, each with a bathroom. I thought it would be too hot without central AC but the fans work well to keep the living areas cool. The patio is comfortable and has a nice view of the ocean - beautiful! The beach area is small but awesome and we did see sea turtles almost every day. I booked both of the places we stayed based on the beach access and location and we were not disappointed.

My husband and I stayed in unit D5 for two weeks with our daughter, son in law and their two children ages 4 and 6. We couldn’t have had a more wonderful time. The condo was very spacious and has had recent upgrades. The bathroom sink in the master bathroom was especially lovely! There was plenty of room for both families . There is a beautiful pool and the beach is steps away. We can’t wait to book with Liz again, she was wonderful to work with.
