Our stay at "The Best View on Maui" was amazing! Plenty of room for our family of 4 including myself, my wife and 2 teens. And the view is absolutely stunning, you can watch the sunset every evening from the lanai or the comfort of the couch, or while making dinner in the well appointed kitchen.The owner, Mike, took the time to call and check in on us since we were there during the tsunami warning (which turned out to be no big deal). The tsunami did cause a few of our prepaid and scheduled activities to get rescheduled. Mike was very gracious and allowed us a late checkout so we could still get Molokini Crater snorkeling in on our last morning and come back to shower up before heading to the airport.The location is perfect, very close to lots of restaurants, coffee shops, shopping and grocery stores. There's a beach park that's never crowded directly across the street (1 min walk), where the waves are gentle and with lots of sea turtles we saw up close while snorkeling.Kihei is a great town to stay in on Maui because it's centrally located to all the cool things to do like Haleakala (get up at 3am to see the sunrise, TOTALLY worth it), 20 min from the airport, and only 50 min from Lahaina (definitely do the Lūʻau there).We would definitely stay here again!

Great place! We have 5 in our little fam and this gave everyone a bed with air conditioning! We fell in love with this little town. The condo had all the amenities needed for a wonderful week in Maui. Highly recommended!!

The condo was really well located near the beach. It was easy to walk right across and catch the sunset and a short drive to everything we needed. It is also very close to the pool which was nice—all we had to do was walk out the back door and we were right there. It has very cute decorations and was a nice place to stay for our Maui vacation.

We really enjoyed our stay at Hale Kamaole. The location was great, the condo was well-stocked and comfortable. It was def very warm, but the ceiling fans did a good job cooling the unit. And when it got too warm, we cooled off using the bedroom AC units. Or jumped in the pool. I would recommend staying here.

This is our second time staying at this complex (first time in this unit). We have small kids, so we love being just across the street from the beach, 2 pools for the kids to swim in when they are tired of the beach, full kitchen plus access to grills means we can mostly eat at the condo. The bedrooms stayed a comfortable temperature at night with the A/C units running and beds were relatively comfortable. I'm glad we didn't need to use the bed in the loft area because it would have been pretty warm to sleep there in July (probably fine in winter months when it cools off a little more at night), though they did provide plenty of fans. They had lots of stuff available for us to use at the beach, so we didn't need to bring or rent anything. We would definitely stay here again.

Reviewer Comments:
Unfortunately, our stay at this property was disappointing and did not meet even basic expectations.The beach accessories provided were all broken or damaged beyond use—nothing was in functional condition. Beach towels were stained and threadbare, which made it feel like cleanliness and guest comfort were not a priority.Inside, there were no bath mats in the bathrooms and no tea towels in the kitchen, which made things inconvenient and uncomfortable. The kitchen itself was not well-maintained—cutting boards were extremely dirty and felt unsanitary to use. Minimal utensils. Knives that have seen much better days, some have large chunks missing from them. Also two rolls of toilet paper for three guest for one week is not enough. The most concerning issue was the bed. The pull out mattress and protector had visible yellow stains, which was not only off-putting but also raised serious hygiene concerns. The first set of sheets we found folded in the closet appeared to be stained and not washed. We did find a new set of sheets that we washed and used instead. The pillow shams in the primary bedroom also appeared dirty so we washed them as well. Instructions for using the tv could use a refresh as it was not very clear and took us awhile to navigate. This property has potential, but it clearly hasn’t been properly maintained or cared for. There were no shade umbrellas at the pool like there was before. Made it very uncomfortable to spend any time at the pool. The property itself has gone downhill since our previous stays. This is our third time staying at this complex and this for sure was the worst stay. We were also informed at check-in that on the day that we are checking out the water to the whole complex would be shut off all day. All we received was a “sorry about that” no offer to discount our stay for the inconvenience. I honestly don’t think we will stay at this complex again.

We have stayed at the Hale Kamaole before and we love the location. This unit was a bit dated and carpets were dirty. We were sent the wrong door code, so we were not able to get in when we arrived late at night. Because we are not from the US, we had to make a long distance call to ask for the correct code. We were able to get in, but then we were sent the code by text but it was sent as an image instead of just the number so we had to pay to download that as well. On our last day there was a planned water was shut off on the property. Other than those issues, we enjoyed our stay.

This is a mid range property in a fantastic location.The owner was very kind and left donuts for us, yum! Cons- The lack of AC outside of the two bedrooms makes the other sleeping areas ( loft and living room) really unusable- we bought extra fans and put bowls of ice in front of them at night and that helped but it was uncomfortably hot even so. Also, somehow Every dish and coffee mug in the cabinet was greasy/dirty when we arrived but no problem, we just washed them..I actually think they just need a new dishwasher as it didn’t seem to clean very well. We also purchased some new beach items..umbrella and mats, as the ones they had were all broken and rusted. We didn’t mind the purchasing of the items as the price reflected the conditions and we feel that we got a great deal, but as other reviews including this one reflect, this property does come with a few issues to consider. Pros- We would absolutely stay again ( most especially if we only had 4 people and could all sleep with AC that way) and the price is right for the nice location!

We loved the proximity if this rental to the beach. It was so easy to walk across the street and get to the beach. The place was very clean and furniture was very nice. We could hear some street noise because of proximity to the road. The air conditioning in the bedroom was very loud & sometimes hard to sleep. Central unit in the main living room would have been nicer.

Location was great but this condo was dirty. Floors were dirty and horizontal surfaces were dusty, like it hadn’t been cleaned in a few months. Floors had several dirt spots and crumbs which we ended up vacuuming on our own since there was a vacuum in the closet. After texting pictures of the dirty floor, Vacasa customer service promptly provided a mop for us to mop the floors ourselves.It really didn’t look like this condo had been cleaned between us and the last guests. Also, the washing machine did not work out entire stay. Shanna from Vacasa scheduled a repair company to come out 1 week after we arrived but they never showed before we checked out. Then there was a few small things we noticed. The bedroom mattress is worn and sinks in the middle making sleeping on either edge uncomfortable. Also, one of the two recliners in the front room is broken and does not recline.

We stayed at this property for our first family vacation since 2018. It's a great Kihei location with access to Kamaole III which is awesome for family relaxing and some decent snorkeling. Also super close the The Cove surf break if you want to try surfing...although Cove was crazy crowded. The unit has tonnes of space and lots of amenities in terms of beach supplies (cooler, boogie boards, snorkel sets, you name it). The communication and support provide by the host/owner's representative was top notch...you won't experience better responsiveness, care and support. Only constructive feedback is that the unit is moving in the dated direction and could have been cleaner; e.g. grime in the dishwasher...the dishwasher maybe needs replacing. Overall though, definite recommend for good value.

Condo is in need of update and deep clean. We had family in other units near by and all were much nicer...we hung out at their units. As examples of need for deep clean, we wiped down kitchen areas and wipes were very dirty (counters, cabinets, light switches), top of fridge had not been cleaned, loft railing was completely dirty, edges of carpet has not been cleaned and ceiling in main bedroom has accumulated years of dust it appears. Cabinets and furniture and items for use are all very worn. Based on condition it merely functioned as a place to sleep and shower.

This property was perfect for our family vacation! The beach right across the street is absolutely gorgeous and the sand is so nice. The kids played in the pool every evening while I cooked on the BBQ’s provided by the complex. The AC in the bedrooms was a lifesaver. We slept 6 people just fine. Everything was as listed and the host was very responsive and accommodating. I booked this unit specifically for the views of the sunsets and we were not disappointed! A great spot, and we hope to return soon.

This was a great home for our family. The loft area was an amazing extra space, giving our kids space to spread out. Home was clean and exactly as pictured. The location to the beach was very convenient, and the beach chairs and boogie boards were an added bonus! I will say that some of the kitchen utensils and cookware could stand to be replaced, and the bathroom hand soap was watered down. I would not hesitate to book this property again!

We had a great overall stay except for the HEAT in the unit. The 2 room air conditioner units in the 2 bedrooms were adequate for those rooms, but the living roon, kitchen and loft were extremely uncomfortable. We even bought 2 small coolers that didn't do much unless you were sitting directly in front of them. This may be a great unit in winter months, but I can't recommend it for a summer stay.
