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.

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.

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.

Condo was beautiful, super clean and was an excellent experience. We couldn't of asked for anything better. The ground floor was excellent as we had easy access to the lawn area and pool out front. Additionally the air conditioning throughout was real nice, especially in the bedroom, which allowed for a nice peaceful sleep. If you want a top notch condo in Kihei, this is the place.

Overall this condo is in a great location, clean and well maintained. The grounds and pool area are beautiful and it is very quiet at night. We did report an issue with the Blinds in the living room as there was a broken rod when we arrived so we were unable to close them which allowed the sun to shine directly in to heat the place up, however no one came to fix the issue. Couple of areas of improvement would be to have a safe in the condo for storage of passports etc. and the place definitely needs to have air conditioning installed (even a stand alone in the bedrooms would help) The bedrooms were very warm at night, the fans didn't really make a difference, and for that reason we likely would not book this suite again.

We really enjoyed our week long stay. We loved sitting on the lanai to enjoy the beautiful ocean view each morning while drinking our coffee. We appreciated the king size bed and the fan in the bedroom. The unit does have air conditioning in the living room, but unfortunately, it didn't quite reach to the bedroom. The fan definitely helped. We appreciated how well stocked the unit was. We found everything we needed when we needed it. Great attention to detail. This building is central to all of our favourites places in Kihei. It is right across the street from Kamole 2 making it very convenient to walk to every day. We would not hesitate to recommend to our family and friends!

We enjoyed our 10 days to the fullest. The condo was perfect, we could just walk across the street to Kam II beach, and were a short drive from our favorite snorkeling beaches. We really appreciated how the kitchen had many spices and condiments, made our cooking much easier.

Everything about this was great! The provided items like beach chairs that turn into backpacks, umbrella, coolers and wake boards... so cool. The hosts where great and we happened to meet them the day we left. Very nice and a pleasure to talk to. We sat on the balcony and watched the sunset over the ocean and the brightest rainbow we have ever seen. So the view is really great. I would stay in this condo forever if i could.

The title says it all. This place is amazing. It has everything you need and even things you didn't know you needed. We really liked that the location was in the back of the complex away from any traffic noise. The entire place was spotless and we really appreciated the starter soap, shampoo, conditioner, etc. The furniture and bed was extremely comfortable. The AC is an added bonus although with the trade winds blowing, we really didn't need it. The location is perfect for walking to a lot of great restaurants and the beach. Kathy and Leo were great with the communication and always available to answer any questions. Can't wait to book again for next fall.

Recently spent an excellent 4 weeks at this cozy unit in Kihei Akahi. The location is amazing with Kam 2 literally across the street and some food/shops walkable. With our rental car the rest of the island was in easy reach. The unit has beach chairs and body boards for use as well as at least one beach umbrella and a couple of coolers.The only reason I’m not giving 5 stars is that the unit is starting to show its age and we did run into a couple of issues. However, Janet (contact on the island) was extremely responsive and worked to address them promptly and definitely with the spirit of aloha! Would 100% stay again and recommend it for a couple to enjoy a relaxing stay in paradise. The sofa appears to convert to a comfortable bed but space may be a bit tight for more than two adults. All in all, excellent experience. Mahalo Leilani!

The rental is nice and in a great location. It is well-equipped with basic essentials including everything you need for a day at the beach (which is right across the street). The property is maintained nicely with pools and outdoor grills. The host is quick to respond. I will definitely keep this place at the top of my list for places to stay the next time we visit Maui! Mahalo!

For this review, there were two seeded questions to help get the review started: DId the host seem welcoming and where the amenities in good condition. Interesting way to start, both were a no. The communication with the host was not good at all, it felt like I was interacting with an automated system. And the amenities in the condo were less than impressive. Everything you'd expect was there, it was just shabby. It felt like an apartment for a first year college student.Now for the good, and there was a lot of good! The condo was huge! Lots of space, rooms were very big. The view was as advertised, amazing. We watched sunsets every night. The noise from the road was unpleasant, but we knew that going in so not much of an issue. The condo complex was great, very well maintained. The pool (we only used one of the two) was excellent and the tennis/pickleball court was well used. Check in was a breeze. The location for us was perfect. Kam 2 is one of our favorite beaches and we were within casual walking distance from shops, restaurants, coffee, acai bowls and a bonus...the Wednesday market was a block away.TL:DR - nice place but I wouldn't rent again. If host wanted to update the amenities, this could easily be a 4 or 5 star review!

Easy booking, easy check-in process, Excellent location, excellent full furnishings! It accommodated the 6 of us comfortably! We would definitely stay in this unit again! Would've given a five star review, but it could've been a bit cleaner. The kitchen needs a good deep cleaning, the couches/sofa beds need better cleaning, the floors under the couches & beds need not be ignored and the walls need to be cleaned or paint touch ups. Overall, the unit probably needs more frequent deep cleanings, but we weren't unhappy with our stay!

More run down than i expected. Kind of noisy. Wouldn’t stay here again.

November 2025

The bedrooms would not cool down because the air conditioner did not cool down the bedrooms, and one room was so hot that you had to sleep on the couch. The owner said to open windows and use fans, which were not at all effective. We immediately noticed you could not walk barefoot because your feet would turn black from grit and dirt, and white socks got dirty quickly. There were not enough bath towels, and it would have been nice to have an extra set. The location is very good.
