Reviewer Comments:
We have been to Maui a number of times and have always had good experiences with rentals. This time we made somewhat of a last minute decision and could not get into the other rentals so took Kahana Reef 315 because the picture and description looked pretty good. It turned out to be a very dissatisfying experience. The lanai table was filthy. The lanai itself was not clean. The TV did not work most of the week. Someone from Colwell Banker came to get it back on and as soon as we turned it off and tried to turn it back on, it did not work. The overall appearance of the condo is that it is just not clean. The waste can in the kitchen where you put the bag in is dirty. There are postings along the way telling you don't do this and don't that. The bathroom is very small. The shower kind of reminded me of a locker room shower. The shower curtain appeared to be half of another one cut in two. The bedroom faces the parking lot and street so you get all the noise. Just not a good experience for us. We love Maui and was just disappointed in the condo because all our past experiences have been very positive.

Amazing location and views of the ocean. We saw whales breaching right from the lanai :-)

Enjoyed our 3-night stay. Cached a beautiful sunset the first day. The property was clean and provides all amenities that ones would need. The gifts from Coldwell Banker Island Vacations were a nice surprise. Location was excellent with beautiful view, reasonable close to Safeway, restaurants and shopping. We’ll come back! Thanks!

Great location and comfortable unit. Kitchen was well equipped and functional. A quiet and scenic setting. . Our only concern is the ever-increasing fees and taxes that make VRBO less desirable than in past years.

We loved this property. Fantastic location with a short drive to Lahaina and Kaanapali. Walking distance to Maui Brewing, Hawaiian Village Coffee and McDonalds.
Amazing views from the lanai - we enjoyed as much time out there as possible. We even saw whales most mornings!! The sunsets were stunning from the property.
Directly next door, the beach was great for swimming and sunsets.
Appreciated the basket with some local goodies! Such a comfortable place with fully stocked kitchen, plenty of linens and fans. It did get warm but leaning the front door open with the screen door helped.
Good communication from the property manager and a nice phone call on our first full day to make sure all was ok!
This was a perfect location for doing the west Maui drive as well!

A clean comfortable condo with oceanfront views of Lanai and Molokai. Quiet area. Nice pool, and small uncrowned beach next door. Condo has everything needed for a great time in the sun and surf!

This is the third time we have stayed in this building but the first in this unit.
Everything about it is wonderful. Whales from the balcony, comfy bed, and great location.
Only request, get a high top table and chairs on the balcony so we have a clear view
Thanks for sharing the unit with us

We enjoyed our stay at Kahana Reef. The balcony over looks the ocean and its walking distance some restaurants which was convenient. The only thing is, for the amount we paid the unit was outdated and not the cleanest. The shower curtain is a thin strip of plastic that covered half the door and it was black and moldy at the bottom. The bedroom needs new carpet and the sliding glass door handle was falling off(literally). Wasn’t expecting the Four Seasons but for what we paid then on top of all the cleaning fees I expected a little nicer unit :( The location is 5 stars but the unit I’d give 3 because the balcony was my favorite spot to sit and watch the ocean.

Yes the views are amazing, but you won't be able to enjoy them during most daylight hours until the "spalling project" is completed. The noise was so loud and pervasive, we literally could not be there all day. The unit itself is alright, a bit more worn than we expected but well appointed and reasonably clean. The table on the balcony was dirty, we had to scrub it down our first morning. The lock wasn't working but someone came by to fix it. The carpet in the bedroom is stained and dingy. I wish you a better time in Maui than we had.

We loved our stay right on the ocean front. Gorgeous sunrise colors and great view of the sunset. Most of our time was spent away from our condo, but we were comfortable every time we came home.

Condo is nice. Great view. Everything you need for 2. Walking distance to morning coffee or groceries. Decent Chinese takeout across the street. Big drawback is construction. Noisy refurbishing on decking outside of condo. Road in front of condo that goes up to Napili and Kapalua is totally blocked and will likely be that way for a few months. Main road going down to Kaanapali is bottle necked due to construction - a real choke point during commute and therefore travelers. First half of our week was down in Kihei and much more preferable due to easy beach access. Great location for golfers in Kahana. Perhaps our concerns will be gone after Jan 1.

This was our first time to Hawaii and we loved kahana Reef! Everything you needed was in the condo and the views each morning and evening were amazing. The location in north of Lahaina, near Kapalua, so it’s an hour from the airport and the start of the road to Hana, but only 5 minutes from Kapalua golf course and the spa at Montage Bay! Our only critique of the place is both locks need repaired to make them easier to lock and unlock. Understandably the salt air wears on these, but it’s time for a replacement. There is also no clear direction on what to do with the bedding or towels. We appreciated the stay and if we are ever back will definitely consider this location again!

Great location. Quiet and amazing views right on the ocean. Great place to watch the sunset. Away from the hustle and bustle but still very close to beaches and restaurants. No AC meant the unit was pretty warm at night even with multiple fans running in the unit. Having beach supplies was really helpful. Kitchen was clean and well stocked. The wifi was pretty terrible especially in the bedroom. Mattress has egg crate foam on top which wasn’t very comfortable. I wish the bedroom shades were darker. Pretty clean which is difficult with all the sand.

The view was all of it. Mesmerizing saw turtles from the balcony in the water popping out their head.Apartment is old. Furniture seems old. Bathroom is small and old. They gave soap container which barely pumps out the soap. There is no air conditioner. It did get pretty hot even with breeze coming in. Kitchen- all well equipped good appliances and pots/pans. There is only salt and pepper provided. Be sure to take oil. Beach- there are 2 beach chairs provided. No umbrellas. They do have a cooler but the handle did not work well.Pool is very small. More to relax not really kind you would swim.Overall we enjoyed the stay. I wish it was a little upgraded as the bedsheets and blankets all seemed over used and old. The sofa sleeper was very comfortable.Garbage - stunk even before we put anything in the trash just from opening it.

My stay here was so tranquil, private and I couldn’t of asked for more. The condo was beautifully decorated and up to dated however, meals were spent on the lanai with the breathtaking view of oceanfront view with Molokai & Lanai as the backdrop. It appeared you can throw a rock onto Molokai! Absolutely stunning view! Kitchen was fully equipped, beach chairs, mats and cooler provided by the host. Private location and close enough to Lahaina if you choose to shop or eat in town. Can’t wait to come back and stay here again. Mahalo for da hospitality!

We loved our stay at Kahana Reef! The property is in a wonderful location, right on the water with a beach very near by. It’s also very close to the highway which makes travel to other locations on the island a breeze. The kitchen was well equipped and overall the unit was clean. The only negative were the beds, which weren’t very comfortable.

Location of Kahana Reef is excellent & just located at Sea Shore with natural scenery and beautiful sound of water waves at all hours of day & night. Facilities in the building are also great since the condo is fully equipped with all utensils of kitchen. However the condo needs little better Maintainence as door stopper was not working properly, sliding door with wire mesh was broken and hook for towel holder not in good shape. All other facilities like green grass, BBQ facilities were great. This is my second time stay in Kahana Reef and would love to stay again.
