This condominium exceeded all of our expectations. The location on the north end of Kaanapali beach is wonderful, away from the more crowded and busier resorts. Food trucks are a couple-minute walk away, making for easy dinners on the lanai which provided unrivaled sunset views. Floor-to-ceiling windows in the family room and bedroom kept the ocean always in view. The sounds of waves breaking was a soothing way to sleep each night. A full kitchen and nearby grocery store make eating-in simple. Duke’s restaurant is just a few steps away on the beach boardwalk for a nice sit-down dinner. And the boardwalk extends all the way past Black Rock to the southern part of Kaanapali, making Whaler’s Village and easy 45-minute stroll. The condominium is the perfect place to stay on Maui.

This condo is lovely and was perfect for us. It is as close to the beach as you can get and we saw lots and lots of whales from our balcony ! The building is very nice, easy parking and close to the boardwalk, food trucks and restaurants. The condo is clean, comfortable and well equipped. We appreciated the labels and all the extra goodies provided. Highly recommended!

This was our first trip to Maui and we could not have asked for a better location and experience then at the Mahana in Kaanapali. Every morning, we woke up to see whales breaching from the bedroom view. The condo had amazing views, was extremely clean, and very well appointed. The hosts, Crystal and Jim, have thought of everything that you would need to enjoy your stay in Maui and are very good at communicating with you during your stay. We will definitely be staying at this condo again.

You can’t get closer to the ocean than this! We had a great stay in this unit on the 8th floor. The host did an amazing job providing amenities in this unobstructed ocean view unit. They included: start up toiletries, quality toilet paper, backup towels, laundry soap/dryer sheets, kitchen soap/sponge, zip lock bags, extra trash bags, equipped kitchen, welcome snacks and spirits, basic office supplies, games, binoculars, beach chairs/noodles, cooler, and beach towels. We had everything we needed for our stay! It was a short walk to the beach, Dukes and the boardwalk. We will definitely return to this unit!

Location was amazing - the view, the view, the view!!! Feels like you are on the ocean. Whale watching was an everyday occurrence - along with some dolphins, a monk seal and sea turtle. Unit was very clean and had everything you need. So nice to have laundry in unit. Thank you!!

We came to Maui for our 25th anniversary and loved everything about our stay here! The views are absolutely gorgeous from the condo - we saw whales, sea turtles and rainbows right from our balcony. The location was super convenient - there were many restaurants within walking distance (including an incredible food truck court), and we walked down the beach to snorkeling spots and more. The condo was very nice and well-stocked, just as described.

Have stayed in several Mahana units over the years and 1211 is by a mile the nicest, albeit by far the most expensive. That said, we’ve already rebooked there for next whale season. It’s so luxurious, the double lanai is such a usable outdoor living area. We would sit for hours watching whales perform…can’t wait to return!

We have stayed in various units at the Mahana for years. This year we were on the second floor which was lovely. It’s very quiet and relaxing. The unit showed some wear and tear but was adequate and clean.

In addition to the amazing view, this unit was immaculate and well appointed. We especially appreciated the little things…beach chairs, beach umbrella, binoculars, coolers and icees. The whale watching each day made this one of our favorite beach vacations ever!Directions for getting to and into the unit were precise and easy to follow. Can’t recommend this unit enough!

Our second time at this property. Once again the view was fantastic, we saw turtles, whales and a monk seal from the lanai! Thank you again.

We have stayed at this property before and were impressed. We were very much looking forward to staying again. For the most part our expectations were met. The location is very good. The appearance and cleanliness is excellent. Check in was staight forward. The unit itself was mostly good as well. However, unless your party requires the extra room, the two bedroom is quite large and can be challenging to keep cool. Ceiling fans would be super helpful, but alas there are none. Our other issue, while not unit specific was the availability of hot water. During certain times of the day it can be scarce. Again, more of a property issue than a unit problem. Besides those two things it was an overall good experience.

We were so pleased with everything about our stay- location, proximity to the beach right outside our door, cleanliness of the condo which had everything one could need. From kitchen appliances and accessories to beach chairs and umbrellas and beach towels. Coffee and sparkling water was also provided. To top things off we had quite a show with whales breaching 159 yards from shore and sea turtles galore surfacing right at the tide line. Hope to return one day.

This condo was perfect. Clean, comfort and nicely updated. Floor to ceiling windows and nice sized lanai had beautiful views of the ocean for whale watching and sunsets. The property was really great. Clean and quiet with a great swimming pool, hot tub and plenty of lounge chairs. Nice barbecue grills for guests to use. The location was great with a beach walk, plenty of restaurants and shopping. We really enjoyed our vacation at this Maui resort. Hope to be back soon.

We had a wonderful time at the Mahana! The location is excellent and our ground level unit gave us direct access to the beach and pool, which we loved. This unit had two full bathrooms, which was very useful. It was nicely furnished. The mattress was very comfortable, but the pillows were thin and flimsy. I don't want to go into further details for this specific unit, since this booking was "luck of the draw". We thought we were booking a specific unit, but missed the fine print that said that the pictures were just general representation and that the actual unit would be provided at check-in. We had tried to request an upper floor unit when we found this out, but at check-in the assigned unit was ground floor and there were no other options. Ultimately, we were very happy with the ground floor and would be happy to go that way again, but would make sure we were booking a specific unit. As for the resort overall, everything was excellent! We loved the pool and hot tub, which were hardly ever crowded. The beach was good for snorkeling with better fish sightings than we had on a snorkel trip. Also several other good spots within a couple miles. The walking path that connects all of the resorts along Kaanapali beach was awesome and perfect from a short stroll to a 4 mile walk. Multiple restaurants are available in walking distance, including a great food truck area just outside the resort. If we return to Maui someday, we'd definitely have the Mahana at the top of our list!

Our stay was perfect! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with stunning views that truly set the tone for a relaxing and unforgettable vacation. The location couldn’t have been better. Quiet and peaceful, yet close to great local restaurants and shops, We were able to enjoy both relaxation and adventure in equal measure. The sound of the waves crashing just outside our window at night made for great sleep.The property was well-maintained with beautiful landscaping and a sparkling pool that added to the tropical experience.Overall, this Maui oceanfront condo met my every expectation, and I can't wait to return. Highly recommend!

You have to know the location of the Aston Mahana if you have never stayed on Maui or in Kaanapali and you decide to make it your vacation home. This trip we stayed in Unit 1217 and it was perfect. Clean, every appliance you could want. And the view is just unbelievable. If you’re staying here you need to understand that you are not staying in or close to the airport, Wailea or Kihei. It will take you close to an hour to get here from the airport and the same goes if you are trying to get to Wailea or Kihei while staying here. It is however convenient to several really great food, golf courses, whale watching and water companies. Parking is crowded, but spots are always available. The host and staf are easy to reach and very responsive. So go and just find a way to relax, in, on and near the water.

Loved every second of our stay at this condo! It exceeded every expectation we had. It was very clean, the location and views were amazing (whale and turtle watching from the balcony!) and the owners went above and beyond when it came to making sure their condo had everything you might need. We even had a welcome basket with snacks that was such a sweet gesture after a very long 20 hours of travel. We’re already ready to plan a trip back!

The condo was absolutely gorgeous and updated! It’s on a super high floor so you can see down into the ocean and see the turtles and we also got to see a stingray! You will also see whales breaching if you go during mating season. The unit was equipped with beach towels and beach chairs, which was a major plus! Also has some fun family games in the cabinet. We had a wonderful time. Thank you for having us!

What an incredible stay in Maui! This condo leaves nothing to desire. The views are stunning. You can see whales jumping while standing in the kitchen making your morning coffee. It is clean and updated with all the amenities you need. Its close to a local grocery store and walking distance to several great restaurants. We are already looking to come back!

The condo was even more beautiful than the pictures portrayed! The views from the living room and lanai were breathtaking! The unit was very well appointed in every room. The kitchen was very well equipped. The owners thought of everything from the living room, bathroom and bedroom. We would love to stay again! Better than we could have dreamed! The entire complex including the pool, hot tub, and all other amenities were outstanding. Experiencing beautiful sunrises and sunsets all while hearing the sound of the waves crashing the beach…we couldn’t have asked for more!!

This is a beautiful unit in an ideal location on Maui. It is a condo complex, but provides towel service for the pool and hot tub. Easy beach access and located on the nicest section of the island. Go south for activities (snorkeling, shopping, restaurants) and go north for windy roads, stunning coastline views, and unique hikes (the blow hole is a must-see). Thoroughly enjoyed our time.

The condo had a spectacular view and a fantastic location. We enjoyed the view every day while having coffee on the lanai. We were very dissatisfied with the cleanliness. The window had a big hand and body print on it and nothing to clean it with. We had to buy glass cleaner and clean it out self along with the glass railing on the lanai. The table on the lanai had several cracks in it. The floors were also dirty and nothing to clean it with. There were no beach towels and the dryer barely worked. It took several turns for the clothes to dry. The condo had bare minimum of stuff. We did not read the reviews ahead of time which was our own fault. Hopefully the company will make an effort to clean and make the condo a better place to stay. It could easily be done with that view the condo has to offer. Rob and Pia
