Kihei Surfside Resort is located at 2936 S. Kihei Road, South Kihei at the entrance of beautiful Wailea. This is the desert part of Maui, where the sun shines more than any other part of the island. The Kihei Surfside Resort consists of an absolute oceanfront concrete building of 6 floors and 84 deluxe units with an elevator. There are two very nice oceanfront restaurants within 100 yards of the resort. The Grand Wailea Hotel, The Shops at Wailea and Wailea/Makena Golf Courses are close by and Kahalui airport is just twenty-five minutes away.
Rental cars are available at the airport or in Kihei town. There is free parking on site. Just a few minutes from the airport are Costco, Wal-Mart and Sears. A short drive from the resort is Safeway, Foodland and Star Market, where you can stock up on groceries. Right across the parking lot from the Surfside is an upscale deli/grocery store for last minute items, and a yoga studio.
The world class golf facilities of Wailea and Makena are nearby. Windsurfing, and many other water activities are also available nearby. Some of the best snorkeling on Maui is steps from the property. The Pacific Foundation conducts their annual whale count from the Surfside property. The Kihei boat ramp, from where the pleasure boats and sightseeing/snorkeling tours depart, is a five minute walk.
Kihei town itself is only a few minutes away by car and boasts many fine restaurants, video and gift shops. Historical Lahaina and beautiful Kaanapali beach are a scenic 25 minute drive towards the western part of Maui.

We stayed August of 2023, one day after the tragic fires. Over all we made the best of our stay, we enjoyed the condo and the lovely grounds. The condo came with all the amenities needed for a great time. The view is stunning and was the highlight of our stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Kihei Surfside. The sunsets, snorkelling, boogie boarding and BBQs made it a lovely stay.
Our host Carl quickly responded to a request for a smart TV remote and loaned his own personal smart TV remote - thank you so much!! Above and beyond what would be expected.
We did get the local rooster wake-ups in the night, but thought it added a bit of character, and were able to quickly get back to sleep.
The temperature was lovely with the fan and having the windows open to let the consistent trade-winds in.
The Kihei boat landing is less than 5 minutes walk away - made the Molikini early wake-up easy.
Would definitely stay there again.

Just as listed, but the views were even more stunning than I’d hoped for. I’ll be back ;)

Our family enjoyed our stay at the Kihei Surfside. The location was perfect. Room was as advertised. The sleeper sofa was a bit uncomfortable. I would suggest a more comfortable sleeper sofa. The main bed was very comfortable. Overall great stay!

This unit has an amazing view and is very well stocked. Overall it was clean upon arrival. My only issue was that the sheets for the main bed were bleach stained and a bit worn, and there weren’t any extras that fit the King bed. An extra set would be helpful here…or perhaps just a new set. The chickens in the parking lot were a bit loud in the early morning, but they didn’t bother me too much. Otherwise this was a great unit and we enjoyed our stay!

The location is as described, a walking distance to the beach. Beautiful views from the balcony and nearby great shops and restaurants. Office management is very communicative and helpful if you need anything. Only one inconvenience was that there was plumbing issues for three days in a row where we were asked not to use the water for several hours of the days. Office manager was very apologetic and communicative, but not being able to use the water to shower and get ready did cause some inconvenience. However, don’t think that this is a typical thing and hopefully doesn’t happen again!
