Andrea and her crew were so amazing and kind. 5 out of 5 will rent this again.

Loved the accessibility to the whale sanctuary and Kihei beach. The better beaches were in Wailea but Kihei has a more cruisy coast town vibe which we liked. Beverly’s place was great for our 5 and 9 yr old, we could sit on the patio while they kicked a ball right outside (all enclosed and safe). Great stay all up!!

Koa Resort Unit 5A was exceptional & exceeded all our expectations. It was perfect for families especially those with small children (we had a 1 year old and a 1-1/2 year old); Not only was there beach & pool equipment for adults but ALSO toys, life jackets, high chairs, & safety gates for little ones as well. The car was a huge plus - a roomy Suburban, and the location of the unit with a lovely big grassy area in front of the lanai & across from the pool made it ideal for families. Check-in was easy and the owners very accessible if questions. In all it was holiday perfection!!!

Overall it was a great experience. Condo was in a good location. It was pretty clean. Cleaner does need to clean behind TV and under couches better. It was a great condo and I would definitely use it again

I highly recommend staying here. It was very family friendly and comfortable. There was a beautiful pool and hottub that we used every day. There was a huge green space for the kids to run around in. There was a bunch of beach stuff to use as well as a wagon to pull it all in. The house itself had tons of towels and dishes. The beds were okay. The one downfall for the property was that there was no A/C. They had tons of fans to try and help with the heat, but having A/C would have made this property perfect.

We had a great time and would easily come back again! The only wish I had, is that the kitchen would have oven friendly pans/trays. There was nothing we could use in the oven. I do think the pictures makes the place look newer/nicer/look better than it is, but we were definitely comfortable and overall happy with it!

The condo is cozy and convenient, closed to many beautiful beaches and good restaurants. Also we liked how it was so close to the pool and we generally had the pool to ourselves. Debbie was very good at responding to our needs. The only negative thing is the noises from the neighbors upstairs and the poor baby in unit next door 1 B who cried every early morning nonstop from 1-7am. These neighbors kept all of us up and we didn’t get good sleep but it’s beyond the owner control. We still enjoyed our trip and had a blast and would definitely return to the beautiful Maui. Mahalo!

Had everything we needed for many beach days (minus complete snorkel set but that’s ok), very clean, great living room and very comfortable king bed.

The unit was nicely finished and the kitchen well equipped. Easy walk across the street to Keaka Beach. Within a mile of restaurants and shops, and easy walking. Property owner and manager were very easy to communicate with and very nice. Great place for our adult family of six to spend a week! Mahalo!

Property was clean and well kept. The downside is the parking lot is a bit of a walk to the unit, when we arrived there was no cart to use so we had to make several trips to and from the parking lot with all our food and gear. The unit is very well stocked to cook anything. The Kitchen is super outdated and actually the cupboards are a bit dirty too. The king bed was so uncomfortable my husband and I were never able to get a good night sleep! Tons of pool toys and beach stuff for kids! The only beach chair the is there is falling apart and super old! Definitely needs some updates but overall we enjoyed our stay.

Enjoyed our stay here. had nearly everything you'd need. It could use a few more basic items (more than 1 dish towel and dish cloth, oven mitts, BBQ tools). The lighting in the unit was quite challenged as well, the hallway light doesn't work and the dining room lights have a seizure inducing flicker that we couldn't navigate consistently. Overall it was good and we would stay again.

The place is excellent and just like the pictures. Pros: 1. Clean & well-stocked 2. Lots of towels and kitchen supplies 3. Nice pool area 4. Beach was a close walk and is beautiful 5. Kid friendly 6. Nice Lanai surrounded by tropical foliage (see below on this) Cons: 1. Communications with the property manager 2. Noisy inside/outside unit due to traffic. The unit is located right next to busy S. Kihei Road. 3. There is a permanent resident next door who smokes on his lanai. Nice guy but beware he smokes non-stop and the smell wafts over. We didn't say anything to him. 4. Very long walk from the parking lot and no wagon available to help transport groceries/beach gear back and forth from unit BEWARE of Michael, the Property Manager. He is rude and condescending. We woke up one morning to find our lanai covered in pollen and swarming with thousands of bees due to a nearby palm tree. I phoned him and he said he would have it taken care of. The next day nothing done yet, I texted him and he said "3 weeks so I suggest you buy a fly swatter so you can continue to enjoy your lanai". In regards to the pollen, he said "They will come by with their leaf blower, how would you like to pay?" He quoted us an exorbitant amount of money. If anything goes wrong you'll have absolutely no help. In the end the bees/pollen were never removed and the lanai was unuseable and unsafe. For this reason I cannot give the place more than 3 stars.

This was a good resort in a good location. Overall a very nice site. Great pool. Easy, though a bit of a walk, access to beach. Great barbecue gathering space. We were close to good restaurants and fun drink places. Our unit was a little dated and clearly chose the cheapest options throughout. This might have been a little less obvious if we had not had friends staying in another unit that clearly chose every top of the line option. Their huge shower was probably more than necessary for a vacation spot but just illustrated how basic and out of date the features in our unit were. And please get some seating for adults in the living room! A small futon and two papasan chairs don’t cut it. But overall we really enjoyed the stay.

We had a wonderful time in that 4 bedroom condo; walking distance to the beach (turtles hiding on rocks when you enter the beach and make a right); surfing beach for beginners not far. The kitchen is great, lots of utensils to cook; the bedroom with all the beds where awesome for all our kids; pool in the community is great (and a hot tub) Communication is great

Three teenages and myself spent one week at the KOA resort. The resort itself has a pool, hot tub, two tennis courts with one that has pickle ball court lines and common bbq area with table tennis. Our extended family had rented three different condos and each was nice however, this one had Air Conditioning, some do not. Shawn had great communication and was able to provide a late check out. We had a rental car and parking was not a problem. I would stay there again.

This condo is lovely! And very comfortable! We were 4 of us, myself, husband, daughter, and about to be a 13 year old granddaughter. One bathroom only, worked just fine. The kitchen has everything you would need and more. And, very important, the condo was so very clean. Loved the tropical decor in the condo! Pool is great and steps away. Traffic in Kihei is something else, busy busy. We just made a left out of the parking lot up to the highway a few blocks away to get to our destination. Very easy access to the west part of the island and Paia, etc. We had an awesome stay. Thankyou Debbie!

Everything was great! It was perfect for our whole family of 7 adults and 2 children. It was clean and in a great location which was very close to a beach. Having the suburban was such a fantastic plus for our large family. This property is a good value for your money.

The property is okay. Really dark at night in some places. The property we stayed at was dusty inside. Had cobwebs on the chandelier, kitchen cupboards and corners of the unit. One of the bedrooms had a musky smell. We had to turn on the a/c full blast so the smell would go away. The patio was messy and not clean. Wouldn’t stay in that unit again. Other than that it was close to town.

We had a great time here. The unit was so well decorated and everything seemed new and clean. Perfect to have an upstairs suite for aunty who was able to come on vacation with our family. The unit provided so many helpful items particularly a great wagon for walking across the street to the beach or getting things to and from the car. The Koa Resort property is so beautiful and my preschooler loved the pool.

The welcome basket when we arrived was absolutely amazing. I can’t thank you enough for the wonderful treats. The pool and the grounds were beautiful.
