What Do Guests Think? An Analysis of 1000 Guest Reviews


Reviewer Portrait

The following executive summary is based on a comprehensive and impartial AI analysis of guest reviews. Keep in mind that all units are individually owned, and review scores among units can vary considerably.

Kihei Akahi gets high marks for location and vibe. Most guests loved being directly across from Kamaole Beach Park II (with I and III a short walk), plus dozens of cafés, shave ice spots, and shops nearby. The grounds are beautifully maintained with two clean pools, BBQ areas, tennis/pickleball, and a relaxed, generally quiet atmosphere set back from the road in buildings C and D. Many units offer lanai views of the ocean and sunsets—on upper floors you can often spot whales in season—while assigned parking and elevators make access easy.

Condos are consistently described as clean, comfortable, and well equipped. Kitchens tend to be stocked for cooking, and most hosts provide beach gear (chairs, umbrellas, coolers, sometimes snorkel sets), along with in‑unit washer/dryers. Guests appreciate the value for South Maui and the “home away from home” feel that works for couples and families alike. Units vary from studios to two‑bedrooms; many note comfy beds and responsive hosts or managers who communicate well and address issues quickly.

Common trade‑offs to know: air‑conditioning varies by unit—some have efficient split A/C in living room and bedroom, others only a living‑room unit, and a few rely on ceiling fans and the strong cross‑breeze; bedrooms can run warm in hotter months. Expect a peaceful complex, but occasional island sounds (early roosters, garbage trucks) or road noise for units nearest South Kihei Blvd; upper buildings are quieter but up a slight hill. Pools are simple (no hot tub), starter supplies differ by host, and a handful of units feel more dated than others. If A/C in the bedroom, view level, or modern finishes matter, check the specific listing details; overall, stays here are praised for walkability, sunsets, and easy beach days.

The location was absolutely ideal, there were several beaches within a short walk. The beaches were great and there was always room for us. There are lots of amenities around. The pool and BBQ area was great. The condo itself was a bit dated but overall we were very happy with where we were.

I had a wonderful stay. Everything you could possibly need was provided, including the beach being just a short walk away. The views and comfort were amazing. Stephen responded to any questions super fast. 10/10!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I really loved this condo. Comfy bed, good location, safe, etc. air conditioners work great. Improvements could be a fan in the bathroom and a fully closing door (has a sliding door), boogie boards would be nice, a full length mirror and electric tea kettle would be great additions.

Great location, ground floor, directly across from tennis courts and pool. The unit was as advertised and very well priced. The unit is dated but the price more than made up for that. The washer and dryer is brand new and the bed was very comfortable. We didn't use the kitchen to cook but everything was there is you wanted to. I hope to stay again in the future.

Everything about this property, from the very Warm Welcome with Hosts, Chris and Trisha to the Well Stocked Amenities and Cleanliness to the Fabulous Property and its amenities!! We were shocked how wonderful everything went for us! We cannot wait to plan another trip to their Magnificent property in South Kihei, Maui.

The condo was great! Everything that we needed was there from the kitchen, bathroom, linens and beach items. Unit had a nice big washer and dryer. Chris was a great host! Excellent communication before and during our stay. Loved sitting out on the lanai looking at the ocean. Condo complex was also great- 2 pools, plenty of grills and right across from the beach!

We really enjoyed the little extras provided. I don’t know if they always have them, but a few spices, coffee filters and some extra coral safe sunscreen were really appreciated. The beach chairs and towels were also appreciated.

Great location, great hosts. Convenient condo, definitely on the smaller side, but cozy and comfortable spot. Best for a couple and/or maybe one kid, it was just me and my daughter so perfect fit. Had everything necessary for a great trip. Beach gear and kitchen, dedicated parking spot, wifi was consistent and strong inside the unit

We are a family of four and have been to Maui numerous times in the past. I like the location as it is in the south part of Kihei, which is close to Wailea where we visit lots of times. The condo is set back from S. Kihei Rd., which makes it a little bit quieter. It will depend on your neighbors, especially above to determine if you hear them or not. We didn't have any neighbours above us that were noisy for the first six days of our trip, but then there was a little bit of noise on the last day from our neighbors, which was minimal but noticeable. It was a good unit. We were very happyno complaints.

Great place and view of.the ocean. Saw a whale breaching and and putting on a show the first time I stepped out on the balcony, so that was an awesome way to start the trip! There is also pretty good snorkelling at the perfect beach across the street. Timed it and was 4 minutes from the door to the water..amazing.

Excellent location, best in Kihei, right across the road from the best beach on the island! Plus, all kinds of cafes and shops within walking distance. The condo was perfect for us with everything we needed to have a comfortable stay. The complex is quiet and has a nice pool area. The condo is on the top floor which was very nice, and the elevator was just around the corner from the unit. And of course, you cannot beat the ocean view from the lanai which just puts that cherry on top! Bill is a great host, and communication was prompt and pleasant. He made sure to explain everything, checked in with us prior and during the stay. It was an absolute pleasure working with Bill!

From connecting with Kathy to check in and checking out we’re seamless and excellent. The unit is ideally situated, was clean, quiet and had the benefit of split aircon in lounge and bedroom. We had a great stay and will most definitely book the unit again.

We really enjoyed our month long stay in November/December… The suite is indeed very bright and breezy. We never had to use the A/C, just the two ceiling fans helped keep us cool and comfortable.The Kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals and the barbecue grills at the pool were excellent and impeccably clean…Bed, bathroom and living area were perfect for our needs. When we had an issue with the TV, Terry took time out of his Sunday to help us by replacing the cable box and tv remote through the local service provider…Another big plus, the toys!!! They’ve got everything anyone would want for a fun day at the beach. We used the Tommy Bahama chairs and umbrella almost every day. The adult sized boogie board was also appreciated. We won’t worry about packing snorkelling fins next time, they’ve got sets to fit the whole family. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and look forward to renting this unit again.

We had booked this condo for 9 nights but unfortunately this did not work out due to the following reasons:- urine like stench in and around bedroom, so we could not sleep there- asked owner to sleep on sleeper couch in living room instead where smell was less strong- owner first refused for us to use sleeper couch and finally agreed- had to sleep on sleeper couch instead of king size bed which we had specifically wanted- oven beeped randomly and did not work at all- waited twice for cleaning personal to get rid of smell- waited for maintenance person to fix oven- nothing got fixed but three days wasted- owner refused to give full refund and only refunded one night out of three- owner did organize another unit in same building from night 4 onwards, hence two stars instead of one- location of condo complex is fantastic

We've stayed at Kihei Akahi Bldg D probably a dozen times as we love the view from the upper floors. It's so close to the ocean (although it's across the street) you can hear the waves at night. This particular unit was well-equipped, quiet and we appreciated that it had a king bed.

We stayed in Kihei Akahi C611 for two weeks. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this unit and the entire complex. Location is perfect close to all amenities and within walking distance.Unit C611 was clean, comfortable and well supplied. Communication with the Property Manager was excellent and we appreciated them checking in a day after we arrived to ensure everything was as described. They again checked in with us a day before departure to offer any assistance with our departure.Bill the Owner made it a point of also checking in with us a few times to ensure everything was to our satisfaction.Everything was up to our expectations for our entire stay and we will keep checking when this Unit is available again to book.

December 2025

Condo was very good. Great location. Large kitchen, comfortable living room. King size bed was very comfortable. Beach chairs/umbrella were great. Owners were very accommodating allowing a later check out time. Note to owners: you need to have a smaller table on the lanai, no room to move. Also patio door needs new rollers, grinding steel on steel right now. Would have been a 5 star review if not for the above items. Oh yeah, maybe supply more than 2 rolls of toilet paper and 1/2 roll paper towels for a 12 night stay?? Can easily be done for the rent charged.
