Location was perfect. We had a rental car and chose to stay in south Maui so we would be more central to rest of the island. The actual rental location was also perfect for more relaxed days as we could walk across the street to the beach, walk to plenty of restaurants/stores. The pool/hot tub was nice as well. The condo was as described in the listing and pictures. Communication from the host was very good and fast.

Excellent location in a non-tourist trap non-resort area. 1 block from some of the best beaches on Maui. Kamaole 1 right across the road. Walk to food and shopping nearby. Short drive to any other place or activity in South or West Maui. Condo was very clean, bed bath and kitchen linens were nice. Kitchen well supplied with everything to cook, etc. Toybox on lanai had very nice beach umbrella, beach chairs and kids toys for the beach. Even masks and snorkels. A clothes drying rack was nice, we used it LOTS. In suite washer and dryer were Terrific. Excellent home away from home in paradise. Communication from property manager was excellent and they were very thoughtful. Combo entry lock programmed for our use was very nice, eliminating the need to carry a key around.

Condo was as the pictures showed. Beautiful, open living room, big lanai and comfy lounge chair to enjoy the view and the weather, and comfortable beds. Both the bed and the sofa bed were extremely comfortable! The A/C worked well, and the blinds were easy to use and effective. LOVED our stay, and would definitely book this rental again!!

This VRBO is centrally located in Kihei. We were able to walk to the beach and several shops and restaurants. It was clean and had everything we needed for a simple meal on the lanai. The communication with the Host was outstanding and the check-in process was very easy. Having four beach chairs, towels and a cooler made beach trips wonderful. Having a washer and dryer was an added bonus. We would definitely stay here again.

We loved our stay for a week. It was a great home away from home. It was a good central location for eveything we wanted to see. Loved it being a short walk to the Beach. Great food close by. It was very clean and loved the natural light. I would stay there again.

We really enjoyed our stay here as it was clean with lots of amenities in the kitchen. It is central with a few minute walk to Kamaole 1 beach but away from the noise of South Kihei Rd. The lanai is large and has a great view of West Maui mountains and an ocean view. The complex is very well kept with a nice pool. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you

Great location, close to both amenities and beaches,. Bit tricky to find initially, especially in the dark. Condo well equipped, including use of barbecues.

You will thank yourself for choosing this property for your stay. The condo was very clean and super spacious. It’s equipment with everything you need , it even has a coffee bean grinder for those famous Hawaii coffee beans ! The view is perfect in the mornings and evenings with those large windows and sliding doors.
When my family came to visit, they were impressed with the value of that place.
This property will definitely be my place to stay every time I come to visit, and that will be often since my grandson was just born on Maui.

This was way better than expected. First of all the location is perfect. Tucked away from the busy S Kehei rd., but no longer than you can lay on the spacious terrasse and have a clear view of the sea. It only takes a couple of minutes and you're on the beach. Also, you have Natural Foods and ABC stores just a 3-minute walk away, so shopping is easy. I stayed in some hot days, and the AC worked perfectly. A little noisy but did the trick. The condo has all you need for the beach including paddleboards. The kitchen was well equipped and the bathroom is as shown. Al in all a great experience.

Let me begin by stating that we were here for a month.
You would think there would be some accommodations made for extra sheets, towels, cleaning products, etc. No.
Negatives:
The poor quality of the items here was a bad start.
Sheets for hideaway bed with hole in them. Cleaning people came and gave us a King set for Queen bed.
Towels that smell like a wet dog.
Bedding that smelled like last guest.
Beach towels that were stained and thread bare.
A broom that couldn’t sweep.
Mop that was falling apart.
Poorly stocked kitchen.
Dryer vents into unit; hot.
Toilet rocks, bathroom sink won’t plug.
Very worn furniture, thread bare.
Knives that don’t cut.
*(Rental owners did give us a small gift card to make up for rough start.)
On the flip side there were some positives here:
Location
Nice pool
Friendly people
Quick and responsive rental agency
Coffee grinder
Newer fans
Binoculars
Beach gear
If you are staying a few days you can probably live with the level of discomfort but if you are planning a long visit, find somewhere else!

The condo is nice and spacious, in good location, close to beaches, shops and restaurants. It is equipped with everything you need but you can’t bring from home. Beach accessories are also provided. Best of all is to have washer/dryer in the unit. We loved the place and hope to be back one day.

This was an older property. Partially brought up to date. Needs new furniture, air conditioning system is inadequate for really hot days. Several of the electrical plugs do not function. Kitchen was stocked well. All in all, a bit shabby. The pool was closed for repairs, and we had alot of hassle getting the TV on. Our agent was kind enough to refund us a % off of our fees. If you were here for the beach with boards and all, it is a great location. Lots of restaurants very close. Very quiet at night.

This is a beautiful property with a lovely view and a convenient location. The kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom were all beautiful and in great/new condition. We stayed here for our last 2 nights in Maui after spending time in Kaanapali, Makawao, and Hana. From Kihei, we visited Big Beach, which was a 17-minute drive. We took advantage of the grill for dinner our first night We had booked a snorkel tour from Maalaea Harbor which was a 20-minute drive. After a busy morning of snorkeling, we walked to the beach just down the street. We brought our snorkel gear just in case, and much to our surprise, there were 2 sea turtles close to the shore! There were plenty of restaurants in walking distance to choose from for our last night dinner out. It was also a comfortable distance to the airport for our return home. The only minor complaint is, the condo building is a bit of a maze and took a little time to get used to the numbering as well as walking up and down stairs to get to the unit. For us, the pluses far outweighed this minor inconvenience.

Our family of 4 had a wonderful time here. The condo was close to shops, restaurants, beaches. The condo was well stocked with what we needed. The pool was not open during the week we stayed due to remodel in pool area, but we were at the beach everyday anyway. The condo was clean and we enjoyed the lanai and ocean views. Thank you!

We stayed in this unit for two and a half weeks. It is by far the best equipped rental that I have ever stayed in. The owners were wonderful to deal with and quick to respond to even the smallest detail. There were plenty of beach chairs, umbrella, coolers, boogie boards and toys and towels for use in the bin on the lanai. This saves tons of money!! The only problem is the stairs that you cannot avoid, but we didn't mind a bit. The whole complex is a little difficult to figure out (where the rooms are), but once you do it is a breeze. Wholeheartedly recommend this unit!

This condo is in a great location - walking distance to the beach (even with all the gear), the ABC store, restaurants, and shave ice! The kitchen has everything you could need...even a crock pot! In-suite laundry was a bonus.

My husband and I enjoyed the openness of the condo and it's lanai very much. We did have some difficulties with the TV, leaky toilet and dryer but found Midway Realty to be available and efficient.
The fabric on the reclining chair and sofa were dirty and should be cleaned or replaced. The kitchen was particularly well stocked with every bowl, baking dish and pan you could wish for in a condo. The best we have experienced. I would suggest though that a mention of the need to carry items upstairs would be very important. It was difficult for my husband in particular.
Thank you for the opportunity to review.

Great location; wakable distance to many beaches. Centrally located on the island; therefore travelling all through the island is easy from that location. The complex was very nice and quiet. Great pool. The apartment was enjoyable and spacious with a lot of natural light. Full equiped on beach gears. The lanai was large and we appreciated the view. There could have been more kitchen basic items (sugar, ketchup, pepper, etc) but I would truly recommend this place. In addition, the agency offers a great service if required.

This was our first time staying at Ali'i Kai and it was wonderful. The condo was spacious and had everything you needed for your stay. The little walk down to the beach was great and the stores and grocery stores were all close by to walk to also. Can't wait to return to Maui and enjoy another stay at the Ali'i Kai.

Could not be more pleased with our experience. This condo is in beautiful shape. You can't beat the location, just a short walk to pretty much everything Kihei has to offer (Kam I, II, III, especially all the Sea Turtles you discover). Not to mention, everyone we encountered and spoke with at the property was very nice and sociable. And to top it off, the weather stays at perfection - 83-85 and sunny almost every day :)
