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.

Wailea Ekolu consistently wins guests over with its setting: sweeping ocean-and-golf-course views, spectacular sunsets, and winter whale watching right from spacious lanais. The vibe is quiet and tropical across beautifully landscaped grounds with two low-key pools, yet you’re close to it all—Akamai Coffee, Monkeypod, the Shops at Wailea, tennis and golf. Beaches are an easy 5–10 minute drive or roughly a 15–20 minute walk downhill (expect an uphill return), making this a tranquil, good-value alternative to the beachfront resorts.

Condos are generally roomy and well outfitted for families and longer stays: full kitchens (many updated), in‑unit washer/dryers, multiple bathrooms, and comfortable bedding. Many units stock beach gear—chairs, umbrellas, coolers and towels—and guests frequently praise cleanliness, tasteful decor, and thoughtful touches. Hosts and managers are widely noted as responsive when small issues pop up, and BBQ areas and the quiet pools are convenient. Most days start with coffee on the lanai and end with sunset views.

Common trade-offs: this isn’t beachfront, and some find the walk back from the shore hilly, so many guests drive and report easy beach parking. Noise varies by location—occasional road, delivery, or landscaping noise in some buildings, and footfall if you’re below another unit—though nights are typically peaceful. Several condos use wall/split A/C that can be loud or lag during late‑day heat, and supplies/toiletries are often “starter only.” Because units are individually owned, outfitting and updates differ, and a few guests mention minor maintenance, deep‑cleaning needs, or tropical ants; management is generally quick to respond. If those nuances suit your travel style, Wailea Ekolu delivers relaxed, view‑filled Wailea living at a fraction of resort rates.

Lovely and clean condo with beautiful view. GREAT location…. So much to do within close proximity and easy to walk to restaurants and shopping. We also drove the road to Hana and up to Haleakala to hike. Definitely recommend this rental property!

We had a great stay! We could walk down to the shops if needed. And they had just trimmed some plants so the ocean view was even better than the pictures.

Very nice condo situated close to coffee shops and shopping center. Very clean and felt very safe. Love the ground floor unit. Kids could play outback while we used the grill. Beautiful sunsets. Not oceanfront but a just a short walk to some great beaches. Will stay here again future. Thanks Ali’i Resorts.

I think its time to switch out the copper pans for non-stick pans. Otherwise, place was great. Oh, and more kitchen trash bags. ;-)

We stayed at this rental for 7 nights. The unit was very clean and beautifully decorated. The view from the lanai was incredible, and the communication with the property manager was excellent. However, we encounter numerous bugs (the management company said they were water beetles) in the unit especially at night. They were mostly in the kitchen and bathrooms (sinks, counters, floors and walls). The management company promptly sent someone to spray the same day as my complaint. The spray helped a little but the bugs quickly returned. I hope this pest issue is resolved soon.

My husband and I stayed for one week with our four teenage children. The property was perfect for all of our needs. We were able to utilize the beach chairs and towels. It was so great to have essentials at the property to use as well (body wash, shampoo, conditioner, even after-sun aloe!) Hien was always prompt with communication as well. The description of the property is truly spot on. The location was also great! If I am lucky to ever get to come back to this magical island I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again :)

We have stayed at Ekolu Village 3 times and this by far was our most enjoyable experience. The view is just gorgeous, the photos do not do justice! The space is comfortably furnished and well equipped. We were long stay guests and appreciated the full kitchen supplied with everything you might require. Bathroom showers have good water pressure, lovely new towels and extra touches. The Lanai furniture is so comfortable and the perfect place to enjoy a book or refreshment and the beautiful view! Just a 3 minute walk (downhill) to popular restaurants at Wailea Village Shopping Centre and The Shops at Wailea close at hand. We loved our stay and highly recommend to others. Thank you to our hosts!

This was the perfect spot for our family! Beautiful views, fully stocked for all of your beach needs, plenty of towels/hand towels/washcloths, the beds were super comfy, as well as the couch, and it literally had everything you needed! It was also convenient to stores, shopping, restaurants and the beach! Will totally stay here again! Nothing but positive feedback for our family!

Terrific location for our golf trip to Maui! The property was clean, quiet, and had everything we needed. Thank you!

June 2026

The property was quiet, peaceful, and the beds were comfortable and well-maintained. However, we did encounter roaches inside the unit during our visit. At first, I assumed this was simply an island-wide issue, but during the second half of our trip we stayed at another rental in Ka'anapali and did not see any roaches there. Based on that experience, it appears the problem was specific to this property. Other than that, the location was pleasant. I can't say I would stay again. I hope this issue is resolved soon.

We had an amazing stay in Maui! The condo was clean, comfortable, and very well equipped. One of the highlights was the beautiful lanai overlooking the golf course with stunning ocean views—an absolutely perfect spot for morning coffee and evening sunsets.The location was excellent, close to beaches, shopping, and restaurants, while still feeling peaceful and relaxing. The host was responsive and made everything easy from check-in to check-out.We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would gladly return. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a comfortable Maui getaway with beautiful golf course and ocean views. Mahalo!

The condo itself was very nice. Clean, comfortable, well stocked with kitchen equipment, close to shopping, and great golfing nearby. The only drawback was the noise level of traffic. The condo is located on the first level right by a very busy intersection so you can hear the traffic and tourists well into the evening.

This property was perfect for our multigenerational trip, me and my wife, our three grown sons (26, 22, 18), and my 81- year-olsmd mother in law. Gorgeous views, spotless, everything we need on-site. We texted when we arrived asking where he coffee filters were, and in 30-minutes someone was at the door. Shops within walking distance (3 minutes) with restaurants, including Koast (which was a highlight). Beds very comfortable, fully stocked, just prefect.

We had great time on Maui. The condo was clean, quiet, in a nice location, and had all the beach items you need for a great day in the sand.The only reason I would not give it 5 stars is because of the bed. If you can sleep on anything then you are fine. If you cannot or have back issues like I do, the bed was not very comfortable. Upon taking a closer look, it was a thin mattress with a 4" piece of foam on top. If the owner invested in a quality mattress this condo would have been perfect. We still had a great time.

This condo is a great, affordable option if you're looking to stay in Maui. It's walkable to resorts, beaches, and restaurants. It has a view of the ocean from the balcony. It was very clean, and the AC unit is definitely a good one!! The only thing was it was hard to locate upon arrival. We arrived at night, and Google Maps/iPhone Maps showed two different locations with the given address which was confusing — and there aren't street lights to illuminate signs/directions so made it difficult to navigate. I recommend arriving during the day. There were also a fair amount of fly nats which had accumulated in one of the bathrooms, but the host was extremely quick to respond and gave us fast solutions that helped. Overall we had a great experience and would recommend.

We have stayed several times in Wailea, with this being our first at Ekolu. The unit is very nice. The kitchen appliances need to be updated, but worked just fine. The views from the lanai are amazing. Easy walk to Shops at Wailea and our morning beach walks. The condo has everything you need for cooking and days at the beach. Communication with management was fantastic. We will definitely stay here again.Jim & ColleenMN

We stayed in this Condo after Covid at that time it was very comfortable. We came back again to stay in this condo for 3 weeks in April 2026. The Condo is on the bottom floor, and is in a great location! With BBQING facilities right off the outside patio. And you can view beautiful sunsets from the patio every night! Unfortunately, the some of the furniture is in need of replacement, including the patio furniture. In addition, all of the linens and bedding are extremely dated and need to be replaced. And kitchen essentials could use some upgrading as well. This Condo would be amazing with some very needed updating.The Management company was very responsive.

We have stayed at Maui four times now and this is the only property we have returned to instead of trying something new. The view is tough to beat, the place is large, and the communication with the host was excellent.

Loved the condo. View on large patio was amazing. Kitchen was one of the best and well equipped we've ever rented. We had a problem with the air conditioning not working. The owner didn't approve the remedy while we were there so we had a couple of hot days/nights. The rental management company was helpful sending out repairmen and setting up 2 portable air conditioners for us. They took up a bit of space but made the remainder of our trip comfortable.
