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.

Travelers consistently love Kihei Kai Nani’s location: it’s directly across the street from Kamaole Beach Park II, perfect for daily swims, snorkeling, and postcard sunsets. The grounds feel friendly and well kept, with a large, rarely crowded pool, BBQ areas, and easy parking. Many units are thoughtfully stocked with beach chairs, umbrellas, coolers, and well-equipped kitchens, and several have lanais with garden peek-a-boo or ocean views. The complex is walkable to cafes, shave ice, shops, gear rentals, and casual restaurants, and it’s a convenient base for exploring Wailea and the rest of Maui.

Stays feel more like a homey beach condo than a resort. Individual units vary—some newly renovated with upgraded kitchens and split AC, others simple but comfortable—yet most guests report clean spaces, responsive hosts, and good value for the area. Families and couples appreciate the laid-back vibe, the big pool, and the ability to cook in, then cross the street for sunset. First-floor units are popular for easy access; note the property’s 2–3 story buildings generally do not have elevators.

Common trade-offs reflect the complex’s age and condo-style setup. Air conditioning is often a single window unit in the living room (sometimes on a timer), so bedrooms can run warm; if you run hot, look for units with bedroom AC or plan on fans/tradewinds. Many condos don’t have in‑suite laundry (coin-op is onsite), and front buildings can pick up early-morning service-truck noise or the occasional rooster, while units set back are quieter. A few guests mention dated furnishings or minor pest sightings typical of the tropics, but the recurring theme is a clean, well-stocked, walk-everywhere base that delivers excellent beach access and value without full-service resort frills.

The place was fantastic! It was a fantastic location new great food and right across the street from a beach. The linens provided were great, and the decor was perfect for a Hawaiian vacation! The amenities provided were top notch.Unfortunately, the beach umbrella provided was broken, one of the snorkel sets was missing, and a couple of lights flickered (and I did not have a chance to message the host during my stay, so that's on me for not giving her a chance to remedy that situation). If we're ever back to Maui, I would definitely rent here again!!

Excellent location. The facility seems a bit older but is very well maintained. Staff was friendly and informative. Location is the selling point for this property as it’s across the street from a beautiful beach. Killer sunsets. Many restaurants and shops in walking distance. The unit was clean and well appointed. Took a moment to sort out all the fans, lights and AC units BUT everything worked. Very nice TVs too.

Great place to stay! The condo has everything needed. The Murphy bed is very comfortable and so is the bed in the master bedroom.It is very luminous and facing the pool. It is close to the laundry room. It is also very quiet. Many restaurants nearby. We will definitely come again.

Everything was great except the folding bed mattress was dirty and uncomfortable. Body stains were on the foam mattress. The bars underneath were felt when laying down. Tbe air conditioner wiring could be improved as both air conditioners were on the same 15 amp breaker and kept blowing the breaker, unless on very low setting.

This is our third time staying at this unit and we already have Christmas booked. Absolutely wonderful and Mark and Pam are always available and helpful as needed. The unit is well-kept and extremely comfortable. The entire process from check-in to check-out is as easy as it gets.Overall, amazing!

We have stayed at this property about 2 years ago. It is a fantastic place to stay and has a fabulous view. Right across from the beach. Quiet area but close enough to walk to food and shopping. The owners communication is great. We had trouble getting the TV to work and they answered right a way and helped.

We have a friend who has a condo in this complex and wanted to rent in the same complex. My husband is an amputee so I wanted a first floor, updated shower and near the front of the complex. This fit all criteria. Has everything you need and very comfortable. Best part is right across the street from the beach to see the sunsets every night.

I'm not going to repeat what everyone else is saying but I will agree - it's a great place. Comfortable and clean. Well equipped. Right across from Kam 2 beach. We have stayed at this complex to three times now in three different units and this one is the best so far. It's perfect for those who like to cook and want to have immediate access to the beach. It's a 20 minute walk to the restaurant corridor but there are food options right out the door. Also a nice grocery store and ABC down a few blocks.

Everything was amazing, from the bundles of towels to the beach and pool equipment we were left with it was the perfect stay. Wouldn’t hesitate to book here again. Thanks so much!!

I’ve stayed in Kihei many times over the years, but this condo truly stood out. The interior was beautifully done, I especially loved the stonework, which gave it a unique and upscale feel. Being directly across from the beach was incredible; I could catch breathtaking sunsets on the sand just steps from the door. Plus, the location is perfect, convenient parking, easy walking distance to great restaurants and local markets. I’ll absolutely be looking to book this place again. Mahalo!

The apartment was clean and well stocked. The kitchen had everything we needed and the furnishings are of a nice quality. We especially liked the lanai in the back. It is private and well landscaped. The host was very quick to respond to our messages. The location is good. Restaurants are within a few minutes walk and the beach across the road is quite nice and not too busy. Would not hesitate to rent again.

Very nice stay. Very well equipped and furnished. Plenty of beach towels, mat, chairs. Also some snorkel equipment available. Very close to shopping center. Probably the best feature is really close to Kam 1-3 beaches, great for walking, snorkeling, swimming, etc.Only thing that can be improved is the AC situation. There’s only a window unit in the living room. Mini split would really improve the cooling in the condo.

Super need a window unit in the bedroom in addition to the main room to combat the day’s sun heating up the space which plays a huge role in our overall 7/10 experience. Couch and chair in living room is largely beat up and needs to be replaced but if you’re never relaxing in the condo, I guess it’s not a huge deal. Bed did not have a headboard and was not attached to the wall so we constantly found ourselves repositioning the bed while turning over in our sleep or climbing out of it. Prohibited my ability to charge my devices on the nightstand because the bed would knock the charger out of the wall socket. Space had a musty smell possibly from the furniture but the towels and sheets were clean. Beach chairs were pretty beat up and need to be replaced.

Wonderful stay. The unit had everything we needed for a perfect stay. The view from the unit was exceptional, and the location was great as we just walked across the street to jump into the ocean. The beach across the road was excellent—quick bites to eat nearby and centrally located to anything from Wailea up the coast. Did not have one issue with anything in the unit, and communication was excellent with the owners.

Great condo: quiet, set back away from the street (so we couldn’t hear street noise), but the complex is right across the street from a wonderful beach. The condo has everything, and is relaxed and spacious with good air conditioning. Comfortable bed. Very responsive and friendly hosts. So close to stores, beaches, restaurants, everything. This is a GREAT place, a great value, and exceeded our expectations. We recommend it! Thank you!!

My husband and I spent a portion of our honeymoon staying here in Maui. This was an awesome location in south Kihei, great access to the beach, and walkable to restaurants and coffee shops in the area. The condo is in a great spot in the complex, easy access to the pool. Would definitely recommend!

Liz was great to deal with. She was responsive and wanted to make sure things were right with our stay. Quiet and an easy walk to the beach with dining next door as well. The pool was well kept. Watched sunset at the beach with the chairs from the room.

Great location, easy free parking. Access to pool towels, chairs, etc. Only note, air conditioner automatically shuts off after 6hr timer, so it constantly had to be reset. Otherwise great stay.

The condo was exactly as described. It was clean and well appointed with everything we needed for our stay. The owner was in communication with us from the beginning and he sent helpful emails to explain location, parking, codes etc. The lanai was spacious & private. We were just steps away from the beach and there were beach towels & chairs to use. We will definitely recommend to our friends, family & visit again. We love Kihei!

Overall I was very pleased with my stay here. The check-in process and process for getting a parking pass were both very straightforward. The condo was lovely and spacious, and fully equipped with everything I needed.My one problem was that when I went to take a shower my first night, the shower seemed dirty and there was hair from (I assume) the previous guest covering the tiles, so it looked like the cleaners forgot to clean the shower. I had contacted the owner about it per the condo's instructions but never received a response. Because of this I just opted to clean it myself. Aside from the shower, the rest of the condo was very clean.A quick note (this did not affect my review): the listing mentions air conditioning but I did not see any air conditioning units in the condo. There are several ceiling fans throughout, and a portable fan in the bedroom. With the windows open for a nice cross-breeze I did not have any problems with the lack of air conditioning, but if you tend to overheat this may be something to consider.Overall I had a very nice stay and would come back again!

Kihei Kai Nani is our favorite to stay at in Kihei. The atmosphere is laid back and relaxing. The pool area is never so crazy busy you feel crowded or left out. Everyone is friendly there. You can cross the street to the beach and you don't have to walk far to find dining. Everything was exactly as we had hoped for!

The best thing about this property is the location, it is within a good proximity of most things you'd want to see in and near Kihei.
