The condo was well appointed and nicely decorated. We like to cook and so bought a few things that made prep easier. Unfortunately, we were not prepared for the heat.Everyday the temp was 31 or 32 C and the A/C was unable to lower the temp significantly because we were on the top floor and the heat was coming through the roof. Other than that the condo was perfect. The fragrance of plumeria wafting into the bedroom at night was lovely. We appreciated the bottle of wine left for us.

Unit was clean, comfortable and led to a great vacation. Kihei Kai Nani Complex is in a great location, beautiful beaches across the street, plenty of places to eat within walking distance, the best Happy Hour (Mooses) and an easy drive to Wailea's fancy resorts and restaurants.

Was an excellent choice for us as we visited in March so it wasn’t real hot yet. If you visit in summer this condo has a wall unit A/C and fans. It was fine for us as the temp wasn’t that hot yet but in the middle of summer I don’t think the A/C would be enough. It has everything you need as we made breakfast everyday. Pack lightly as there are no elevators and you’re on the 2nd floor. But it’s clean and cozy. I’d stay here again-you’re right in the middle of town!

We enjoyed our stay here very much. It is a quiet complex and we found the apartment to be well equipped with all we needed. I perhaps misread the listing as I expected a washer/dryer inside the condo but they were offered in the complex and the set up was very convenient. The air conditioning was on a timer and quite noisy and that was really our only issue. Otherwise we enjoyed our stay very much.

Clean, convenient to everything, located in beautiful South Maui. Lots of sea turtles to see right in the water at the Kamaole beaches. One minute walk to Kamaole II beach.

we had the best time and are already planning to come back again next year. Perfect central location to everything and directly across the street from the beach.

This is a very pretty property, inside and out. The bed was quite comfortable, the kitchen was well-equipped, and the parking was easy.

The Kihei-Wailea area is the best on the south side and the Kihei Kai Nani is a nice complex. The 13 buildings are situated well on the site w 2-3 floors depending on the building. It’s conveniently located across from Kam ll beach & walkable pretty much everywhere- to Wailea & along S Kihei Rd as far as you like. What I liked about our unit was not being in direct sunlight & a bit of ocean view. The furnishings were nice & unit quite comfortable. We were on the 3rd level and while normally that wouldn’t be an issue, my husband had developed plantar fasciitis right before our stay. There aren’t elevators on the property so it was a big deal. We managed to make it work. I’d definitely stay at KKN again, but for us would prefer 1st or 2nd level.

First time ever in Hawaii for me. The host contacted me with information & tips which were very useful, from scenic trips to restaurants and activities, as well as abundant info about the property.The location was ideal for us. Close to shops, restaurants/bars, and the beach. Couldn't ask for more. Plenty of free parking, nice on-site pool. If I return to Maui, this will likely top my list for spots to stay again.

Across the street from beautiful beach. Walking distance to many restaurants. Easy access by car to other Maui shops and sites.

March 2025

My family and I loved our stay! It was super convenient to be able to walk across the street and be at the beach or walk to a local cafe, restaurant, souvenir or ice cream shop. The location could not have been better. The unit itself was clean and as described in the listing. The use of a blow up mattress for my 18-year-old son was very helpful and convenient, so that we didn't have to open and close the sofa bed everyday. Check-in and check-out instructions were very informative and clear and communication with the owners was quick and reliable throughout our entire stay. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others!

When we showed up and it was a one bedroom, we were genuinely surprised because all three of us adults looked at the Vrbo beforehand, and it looked like it was two bedrooms. Small condo, no dishwasher, no laundry in the unit we had to use coin-op laundry. The pullout couch did not have a comforter, just a small thin blanket. There was an emergency number provided if we had questions and I tried calling that and no answer. Also, when we were attempting to check in with the on-site manager for parking, we weren’t unable to get a hold of them multiple times and then we were left with a notice on our car for parking without checking in? Prior to checkout, we are required to do blankets and sheets for the pullout couch and towels. Of course, using the coin up laundry facilities. Just very inconvenient. Not the condo we expected that we are renting.

The property is immaculate with a team of landscapers constantly upkeeping it. The apartment itself was ultra-clean and very well equipped in terms of kitchen utensils and gadgets.The main TV is not a SMART TV and so bring an Amazon Firestick if you want to watch Netflix or Prime.

Arriving late at night the lock box on the door was difficult to figure out. For some reason I had to enter the code numerous times. I started to worry as it would not open up. Luckily it eventually worked for me. The condo did not smell fresh when we entered however opening the windows and doors helped clear it out. It was nice to have the space it offered. The kitchen was functional not the best I’ve seen. The stove top was a bit of a mess but it worked fine. Fridge was great. The cupboards need a really good cleaning. There were tiny bugs on the dishes and food packages every time I used anything. Furniture was good except the bed was not firm enough. Husband had a sore back every morning. I didn’t mind it and slept well. The complex was super nice with a great pool and grounds very well kept. Overall good to stay here but place needs an update.

This was our second year at the property and it didn't disappoint. The unit is great - as described and owner is easy to reach with any questions. The property is right across the street from one of the better beaches in Maui (wide, sandy, not crowded) and the unit is one of the closer ones within the property to the beach. The area is popular and busy (which we like), but there is no noise or rowdy crowds and the street is super easy to cross - cars stop immediately for pedestrians.

The condo is in the perfect location in Kihei right across the street from the beach and next to multiple restaurants. Very safe and convenient complex. The lanai faces the pool. Great communication and proactive in covering any questions we might have had. Pack and play was very helpful for our baby. We highly recommend and would absolutely stay here again!

We had a fantastic stay at Katarina’s property. The one-bedroom unit was beautifully maintained and the perfect size for my husband and me. We especially appreciated the quiet building and the great location. The property and pool area were awesome, making our stay even more enjoyable.The only small suggestion we have is for a few additional kitchen items, as we did a lot of cooking in the unit. A larger frying pan, a few more sizable bowls, and some BBQ tools would be helpful. Also, upgrading the beach chairs to Tommy Bahama-style ones would be a great touch.Overall, we absolutely loved our stay and would highly recommend this property!

Had a great stay. The short walk to the beach for our morning snorkel was perfect, love this location. Meals on the the Lanai were always nice watching the geckos and the birds. A perfect location for our Maui adventure. Would definitely come back to this unit again.

This location and stay was exceptional. The corner condo with the sunset through the window or on the lanai was spectacular. The peek a boo lanai was perfect from one direction the mountain sunrise the other direction you could see the ocean sunset. Again beautiful. We had some complications getting into the condo but it was quickly resolved. Overall the accommodations and setting were exceptional. Two minute walk to the beach and guaranteed brilliant sunsets each evening. Would stay there again. Wonderful ‼

I stayed 5 nights in this comfortable, clean and homey apartment. Communication and check-in were super easy and well organized. A nice touch was the bowl of welcoming snacks. The kitchen is well equipped. If you want sharp knives, do bring your own. The location and proximity to the beach and other amenities make this a great place to stay. It was also nice to find some staples such as salt, sugar, tea and coffee. The Lanai has snorkel masks and other water and sand toys for guests to use. I would definitely recommend staying here.

Property was very nice. Our cell phones did not work in KiHei upon arrival for email access with instructions.The checkin office by the pool could not provide the lock code for our unit. Host did not answer phone to help us.

I cannot express how astonished and disappointed we were upon viewing our invoice and finding an undisclosed 50 fee for air conditioning use. It took us two days to figure out how to use the air conditioning unit and then it was only operated while we were present in the unit, which was not very often. We feel lied to and scammed and would never recommend this property to anyone. We respectfully request a refund of that ridiculous unfounded AC fee!!

The property is a 2 min walk to the beach & across from the pool. It was very well taken care of. Comfy bed & pull out couch. The lanai was very nice for breakfast & gorgeous views. The AC and fans worked well to keep things cool. The bath faucet needed to be replaced during our stay & they were quick to fix it. Great stay & we'd come again!

The condo provided everything needed for a stress free holiday on Maui. The owners were quick to respond to any inquiries and requests. The unit was well supplied with beach chairs, umbrella, Boogie boards for the beach. The kitchen made our month long stay easy as it had more then enough utensils for cooking etc. We would book this unit again if we return.

I have stayed in this condo and liked it so much that I rented it for my daughter and her family. It is very clean and has an ocean view from the lanai. KKN is located across the street from Kamaole beach 2, & close to restaurants and shops. The pool is the largest one in this area of condos, so is nice for swimming or just relaxing by. Being in building one, which is close to the road, one would expect noise, but my daughter said they had no problem with that. I would rent here again

Arrival and check out was really easy and stress free. Unit was right across from the beach. Perfect for girls trip or small family. A few very minor hiccups with a fan and bedding while there but owners were immediately responsive and it did not sway any part of enjoying our stay. Great communication before booking and during!! Pictures accurately describe unit. Stocked kitchen had everything needed. Would absolutely stay here again!

Lowkey! The patio was quiet. Just the birds and they will try and get your food so beware :) Really enjoyed our first trip to Maui. The location of this place is great! Visited all the spots and this was perfectly located. It is not fancy but comfortable and great for the price. If we make it back I would definitely stay here again!
