I chose this place due to the reviews, so it is only right that I leave a review. This far exceeded our expectations. No detail was forgotten. From the privacy on the back patio (that no other unit had), the location on the property, the welcome basket for guests, to the unit accommodating items you may have forgotten. Everything was spot on. Communcation was excellent and reassuring. Thank you for making our vacation even better than we expected.

We loved our stay! Everything was perfect! Great location - close enough to get anywhere driving, clean, had everything you’d need for the beach, hotel staff were friendly and helped arrange adventures/activities and an easy check in/out! Host was friendly, left a welcome basket of treats, always responded to messages and answered any questions! Would definitely stay again and recommend to family and friends!

The studio villa was clean, updated and had a nice view of the garden and pool. The size was good for being a studio. However, the kitchen was missing several basic items: a measuring cup, measuring spoons, a baking sheet, and no storage containers, or Saran or aluminum foil. We didn’t expect many spices, but there was not even salt and pepper! Also, the shower drain backed up after even a short shower. A little attention to details that would make a stay more inviting might be in order.

Great location, cleanliness, and responsiveness by owner. proximity to the beach and pool were outstanding, and only a few steps from an all-purpose restaurant with good selections. We liked the smaller resort feel but with all the essential amenities that we look for, and without feeling crowded. We were very pleased.

The unit was perfect for our stay. It is located in a more quiet part of the property with a wonderful patio view of the well maintained garden grounds. Upon our arrival, the room itself was clean and well stocked to meet our needs.We have been coming to Maui Kaanapali Villas for many years and staying in many different units.I would certainly not hesitate to try to rent this unit again.

Another great stay at MKV. Great place to stay for the two of us. Kitchen has everything needed for us to cook. Nice separate bedroom from the living room and kitchen. Great view of Molokai and the evening sunset over the ocean with outside seating. Can even see the sun come up over the mountains. Definitely recommend!

Maui Kaanapali Villas was a fabulous place to stay. It is a hidden gem in Kaanapali. The grounds are beautiful and the staff is friendly. The full kitchen's are definitely a plus for families to cook meals and have the convenience of a fridge. There is a gym that is perfect for a good workout before the beach. Everything was wonderful, we can't wait to go back.

We got what we paid for but it was a little underwhelming when it came to kitchen amenities,etc. Dont expect it to be equipped to make a gourmet dinner but a simple set of measuring spoons, a roll of plastic wrap , etc would be nice. Missing items not just limited to the two mentioned. It as a very clean unit so that more than makes up for this

We had an absolutely amazing stay. Unfortunately we only had a week to enjoy. The condo was spotless and was stocked with everything you would need. The bed was very comfortable as was all the furnishings. I spent every morning on the Lanai with my free coffee I got from downstairs. We spent magical evenings watching the sunset from the beach. The days were filled with snorkeling and long beach . walks.Snorkeling was amazing just a five minute walk north. I saw so many colorful fish, stingrays, turtles and to my surprise two monk seals swam right beside me. It was an incredible experience. All communication with the host Barbara was exemplary. She was very quick to respond and give great suggestions on activities and restaurants. We absolutely loved our stay and we will be back. If you want a magical experience book this vacation rental.

We loved everything about this resort and the unit specifically. The location of the unit on the property was ideal to the front desk, both swimming pools and to the laundry and fitness center. This was our first time staying at MKV and we would absolutely stay again! The unit was also perfectly furnished with modern island decor and all of the amenities you could need in the kitchen and bathroom.

We had the most incredible stay! Dan is a wonderful host and this space has everything you need for a duo or small group. Very low key compared to the rest of the resorts nearby - we loved that. Would absolutely stay here again. Mahalo :)

Overall an absolutely perfect stay! The location of the unit could not be better, beautiful patio, quick beach access, quick pool access, and very close to the onsite restaurant. The unit itself was perfect for us, and we are already dreaming of our next trip back! We were visiting during some inclement weather and the hosts were able to validate with the property that it was okay and safe to stay. Jill was very friendly and responsive!

A home away from home at a great price. The owner is outstanding in communications and takes great pride to ensure ones stay is exceptional. The condo itself is well maintained and equipped to make one feel at home. The kitchen is well stocked pans-plates, spices, baggies, all necessities need for a beach picnic. The king size beds is very comfortable. Beach supplies such as chairs, snorkeling equip provided by hosts. The resort has friendly and helpful staff and a nice heated pool, in which one can exchange beach towels daily. As well as games; pingpong, shuffleboard to keep family entertained. . The host kindly allowed us a late check out at no cost given we had a later flight. Overall an amazing experience and a home away from home.

We had an amazing stay at this condo! It was clean and comfortable, thoughtfully decorated, and with by far the best-stocked kitchen we’ve ever experienced in a vacation rental property, which was a huge plus as we enjoy cooking a few meals while traveling. There were even sand toys for our littles. The view from the condo is beautiful, with gorgeous sunsets. We even saw whales from the balcony on several occasions. The property itself is beautiful, with nice pools and very easy access to the beach. The beach location is ideal - not as crowded as the part on the other side of black rock, with lots of room to spread out, yet with easy access to a variety of restaurants/shopping via a short beach walk, board walk, or trolley. What made our stay even better was Barbara - she went above and beyond sharing helpful information and providing amazing recommendations for which we are grateful, as this really simplified our planning. We are already looking forward to returning here. In fact the kids specifically said they want this exact condo next time. Barbara - thank you for sharing your amazing place!

This is our 3rd time at the resort and the 1st with this unit. The unit was great to where it was on the ground floor and there is a private patio. The view from the unit is good also.

Horrible weather and not able to cancel or change by VRBO rules. Trip insurance useless when there is extreme storm even with multiple national weather system warnings. Room flooded briefly but MKV resort staff were quick and excellent in cleanup. Maui Beach Properties was excellent in letting us leave late on our checkout day. Condo was clean and in good condition, as described.

Great place, 10 out of 10, would highly recommend. The owner was responsive and great to work with. Fully stocked, basic spices in the cabinets, basic supplies like ziplock bags, plastic wrap and aluminum foil. A knife block with actual good knives. Easy walk to the beach and main pool, with the small pool only steps away. Will most likely look at staying again in 2028.

Yes, the view of the ocean was narrow but enjoyable. Love to see the sunsets! Room was comfortable and clean. Pool was awesome as well as the grounds. Really liked the mellow vibe of the whole establishment. Nearby snorkeling was great. We’ll be back.

I had a wonderful time here. The condo had everything I needed with many thoughtful extras. The sunsets and the whales on the beach were spectacular and the pool was just steps from the lanai. I’ll be back in September!

Unit was very clean. Proximity to beach is great. Views from outdoor terrace picturesque. Beds extremely comfortable. Kitchen well-stocked. Appreciated beach chairs, etc. that were provided. Laundry facility on property is directly behind the building, so it is closeby if you need it. Carpets showing lots of wear, some deck furniture ripped in several places. Light in refrigerator didn't work from day 1. We also had ants in the kitchen and bathroom. When we contacted property management , they said 'ants are part of life on Maui despite our best efforts, and we didn't want to replace lightbulb in refrigerator because it would have taken an hour and didn't want to disturb you." Suggest placing small ant traps/bait under the sink or in some cabinets for future guests. Additionally, we had baby spiders in the second bedroom bed and on curtain in that room multiple days. There is a mousetrap under the kitchen sink, couldn't hurt to add additional preventative measures for other insects/pests.Thank you!

Host was accessible. Having stayed in other units, we found this one to be average. It seems to be on auto pilot. Other owners are more welcoming and take a few little extra steps to make you feel like you are in Hawaii.Had to ask fir more Tp and linen change. No information provided for lical activities, hotel ammenities, or check out details.

I think the statement of “totally remodeled” is stretching things. It was clean and comfortable but certainly not “new”. Missed a balcony that could be sat on. This was more of a “French balcony”. Could not get the TV remote to work despite buying new batteries. Kitchen was well equipped and suited our needs, but need more then 2 teaspoons.

We loved our stay in The Little Grass Shack. The cleanliness, decor, , welcome basket, and communications with Jeanne were perfect. So many little details that were unexpected and made our stay feel special. The kichen is well equiped to be able to dine-iin, if you choose.The property is walkable to the beach as well as many restuarants and shopping.

The unit was comfortable however it is in the back of the complex so there is quite a bit of traffic noise in the mornings and evenings.The complex is great- so convenient to the beach, The Castaway Cafe and walks to Dukes or Whalers Village. There is also a free trolley that will take you to Whalers Village if you don’t want to walk.

Excellent stay, Exceptional hosts!No surprises here, what you read about in the description is what you'll get! They have accurately described their unit to a fault, with the pros which are many.... as well as the cons, which are few. This is an exceptionally clean unit with comfortable furnishings, a well equipped kitchen, nice bathroom, good views of the ocean (even saw whales a few times while we dined in) and enough storage for our things. Any communication regarding the reservation, questions about the unit, procedures or minor issues were answered or addressed almost immediately. They also provided a list of restaurants and things to do in the area that we made good use of! Being somewhat leery whenever seeing properties with reviews of perfect 10s, 5 stars or whatever method is being used, we can happily give our perfect 10 or 5 stars with this one. The entire experience was top notch. So much so, that we're booked again for next year! :)Mahalo Barbara and Howard!

Good location, the host, Joe, was very easy to deal with and replied quickly to our questions and provided us a late checkout for no extra cost. The unit is small as a studio which was fine but it is a little dated and could use a refresh and there was no where to put the food we purchased as all the cupboards were full. The sound proofing between units is not great so it can be a bit noisy if a family is beside you that talk loudly. The beach out front is lovely and sunset is beautiful to view from there.

Most properties on the beach have thousands of people stacked on top of each other. The nice thing about the Villas is that it’s spread out. Plenty of room to move freely. Room C152 is perfect. Clean and ready when we (wife and I) moved in. Unit had everything we needed. (Beach chairs were an added bonus) staff was very friendly. Of all the places we’ve stayed in Hawaii, this our favorite. Perfectly priced and wonderfully appointed. We WILL be back. Dan and Anna

Best supplied and most comfortable VRBO, I've had! All very clean and comfortable. Kaanapali location and the Villas complex very well located. Pretty quiet. Lush grounds. Loved hanging out in the beach loungers, just watching for whales in sound between Maui and Lanai.
