Beautiful unit and very well provisioned and organized. Beds were super comfy. Can’t say enough about how delightful our stay was!

I surprised my adult kids and my grandchild with a vacation in Maui. We were able to secure a condo that was big enough for all of us with 3 beds/3 baths - meaning no one had to sleep on a pull out and we all had some privacy! The view from our lanai was spectacular with beautiful sunsets every evening. The kitchen was completely equipped which allowed us to cook in several times. The pool and hot tub were close enough that I could sit on the lanai and watch my family swim. Located close to several great restaurants and beaches. We will most definitely book again!

The listing doesn’t lie! We stayed a few nights on Honolulu to see Pearl Harbor, in a hotel. This property was amazing! We wanted to cook meals versus to eat out. The kitchen is fully stocked with anything you could possibly need - but the unit and lanai, the views, the breezes, and falling asleep to crashing waves made it for us. Close to a lot of things on our list, I wish there was a 1 bedroom version of this for our next trip - it will be just the hubby and I. Marilyn has created the most gracious and homey experience, plus turtles and whales! Best stay ever - thank you!

This property has one of the best views in Maui., coffee, light snack, and seasonings were provided. Beach towels and chairs were also. Soap, shampoo and conditioner all there. The owners care about the guest ! You can hang out on the wrap around patio all day. Upstairs loft has slightly steep stairs so not ideal for small children or elderly. But there is a nice bathroom attached. So you don’t have to go u and down a lot. Also, there are two wonderful bedrooms on first level. It’s so hard to find a 3-3, much less one this nice.

We came to Hawaii to complete a golf bucket list and watch our beloved MSU Spartans compete in the Maui Invitational. Missions accomplished. Beyond those goals, we took time to enjoy the food, activities and beauty of the islands. The property could not have provided a more perfect location for our family getaway. Would definitely return if the opportunity presented itself. Go Green!

We stayed here with 3 adult couples. The condo had everything you could possibly need. It was clean and ready when we arrived with fans on. The minute you walk in, you see the ocean and have views from everywhere. The property was very neat and constantly being looked after. We had 6 adults and never felt cramped.
I would highly recommend this place to anyone staying in Maui!

We had a wonderful stay in Marilyn and Jim’s Maui home—5+ stars! It’s in a small condo association that is quiet and folks are very friendly. The grounds are beautiful, pool is great, poolside grills are cleaned every day.
The condo is a well-cared for home and had absolutely everything we needed for the beach and cooking. We whale watched every day from the lanai and sunsets were beautiful. Although we didn’t snorkel ourselves, we watched other guests enjoy swimming amongst the turtles just off the shoreline.
We took their recommendation and booked a whale watching tour with Triliogy. It did not disappoint.
Condo street location affords sidewalks for morning walks or runs and is within walking distance to coffee shop and fish market. The fish market is excellent. We bought fresh caught fish a couple times and grilled that up for dinner. Kapalua Beach is just a short drive, as is Whalers Village.
We would definitely stay here again when we return to the island. Thank you Marilyn and Jim for sharing your home with us.

We had the pleasure of staying at this stunning VRBO property in Maui for our Christmas vacation and it was truly an unforgettable experience. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted by breathtaking sunsets, enchanting rainbows, and the magnificent sight of whales in the distance. The views alone made this stay exceptional.
The grounds were meticulously cared for, and every detail was thoughtfully considered. The property was well-organized and equipped with all the amenities we could have ever wished for. Snorkel gear, beach chairs, and towels were readily available, making our beach adventures a breeze. The well-stocked kitchen allowed us to prepare delicious meals, and the cleanliness and elegance of the entire space added a touch of luxury to our vacation.
One of the highlights of this VRBO was the beautiful balcony that offered sweeping views of the surrounding beauty. We spent many memorable moments taking in the scenery.
The pool and jacuzzi were the perfect way to relax after a day of exploring, and they added an extra layer of comfort to our stay.
Marilyn, our host, was incredibly responsive and helpful, ensuring that our communication with her was seamless.
In summary, this VRBO in Maui is undoubtedly the best we've ever had the pleasure of staying in. Mahalo

We loved our stay at this rental. Incredibly well stocked and marked. Marilyn was very responsive to any questions and clearly left instructions making our trip no hassle at all. The lanai provides a lovely view and sunsets are amazing! The property itself was close to Laihaina and it was easy to find. There is no AC at this rental. It is fine in the morning and the evenings. However, in August during the day it can get a bit warm inside. Other than that we had a wonderful stay! So thankful to have wonderful memories to cherish.

We had three adult couples traveling together - and we all could not have been more happy with Marilyn's place. We had plenty of room, and the location could NOT have been better. The entire property is in an amazing spot, but we'd argue that Marilyn's condo is the best of the entire group. We ate on the balcony many nights and sat there every morning. We didn't want for anything in the kitchen.
Easy travel to close public beaches, but we also "sat on the beach" right there at the condo a couple of days (not much sand, but sheltered and cool, and it was beautiful and we could run back up to the condo for lunch, bathroom breaks, etc. We used the pool and hot tub every day.
We were nervous about no A/C - and while there were a couple of nights (remember that we were there last week in June) that were a bit warm (with all windows open/fan on) it was never too much, and by the time we were sleeping it was totally fine. We echo what others have said about the unbelievable sounds of the ocean crashing just below us that were oh, so soothing.
Lots of things that were walkable (farmers' market, coffee shop, etc.) and only an average of 50 minutes from the airport. We plan to be sure to book this exact same place when we come back!! Thanks Marilyn!

Wonderful views. We felt with the view and ocean sounds that we were as close as we could possibly be to the ocean. The very well-kept grounds, quality condo renovations, excellent pool and hot tub, closeness of shopping / restaurants, and stocked kitchen accessories was extremely comfortable and we spent quite a bit of time at the condo. When we took excursions it was nice to come “home”. We positioned the fans and pulled down the shades in the late afternoon to keep the cool in but in the evening put up the shades and enjoyed evening sunsets as the tiki torches got lit and the conch calls signaled the sunset. We took a bit of an adventurous snorkel off the beach behind the condos. Once we got past the rocks we swam with turtles and collected some shells. I will miss falling asleep and waking to the ocean and bird sounds. We will be back.

We so enjoyed the condo view and accomodations! Marilyn has everything you need labeled, a welcome basket, a lovely book with local information and pamphlets. The sound of the waves is so comforting, condo was very clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the fresh air and had no difficulty sleeping without ac. The fans and open windows kept us cool. There are beach chairs and snorkel supplies, with plenty of beach towels with a tote. Best VRBO rental ever! Thank you Marilyn for sharing your slice of paradise!

The place was spacious for 3 couples. Nice to each have our own bathroom. They have everything you could need for your stay: beach chairs, snorkel gear, beach bags, ice packs. Wonderful stay for all of us!

We came here for a small but long overdue family reunion and had an absolutely wonderful time. As soon as we walked in, we were in awe of the view of the ocean and sunset/horizon, as well as the beauty of the condo. Everything was tastefully decorated, beds were so comfortable, and the kitchen supplies wonderfully stocked. We had brought a sound machine for our baby, but found we didn't need it as we had the real deal with the ocean right at our doorstep!
As an aside, Marilyn was also very helpful to work with directly prior to our visit. I had a few mishaps in booking (i.e. using the wrong credit card, as an example), and she was patient and accommodating.
Thank you for a wonderful time, Marilyn!

We spent six days in paradise at this beautiful condo which had all the amenities of a luxury hotel with more privacy. The condo which is an end unit had an unobstructed view of the water and we enjoyed seeing turtles and whales migrating from the porch. This condo was comfortable and in excellent condition…a big thank to the owners for their wonderful hospitality!

This condo was perfect for our family. We felt it was the best one at Polynesian shores, being an end unit. It was closest to the ocean and part of the balcony was private. The unit was clean, up to date, and very well equipped and was 'as advertised' on vrbo. The owners were super responsive, the check-in process was flawless, and abundant guidance was provided for enjoying the local surroundings and Maui in general.

spacious, clean, fully stocked! and that wrap around lanai with those views is not to miss! everyone from my mom to my little 6 yo niece enjoyed our stay in this condo. we started each day with coffee and breakfast on the lanai and ended it with sunset on the lanai. i love this area of maui..not as hot and dry as other areas. i like the occasional clouds and rain too. close to local businesses, like coffee shops (did i mention i like coffee), food venues, shops. trying to convince a group of friends to come stay with me at this condo again in the future!

This unit was everything as advertised. It has the best location in the complex, with excellent views of the ocean and sunset from the living room, dining area and wrap around balcony. No a/c but the many windows and ceiling fans helped keep us comfortable. We were steps from the ocean. The pool and barbecue area appear refurbished and were very convenient. This is an end unit which allowed for a private feeling. Not far from Napili and Kapalua beaches. The unit is remodeled and in excellent condition. We appreciated that it was well stocked with modern conveniences. We also made good use of the beach chairs, umbrella and snorkel gear. It was everything we expected and more. We will recommend to friends. Thanks Marilyn for use of your condominium unit. I think I would like living in it year round.

I bought my family a trip to Maui as a Christmas present and told my wife to go on VRBO and pick out where she wanted to stay. She spent hours looking for the perfect location for our adult family of 5. Sunset Shores Maui was everything it claimed to be. A Beautiful view, nice and modern condo, clean property, quiet yet centrally located, and so much more. . This was my first time using VRBO and I was nervous, did not know what to expect, and was a bit tentative when I finalized the booking. We were very well informed of expectations by our host and she graciously answered all my questions accurately and timely. She eased my concerns and I am so glad we chose this place to stay.
We will definitely be staying here again.

Start to finish our experience was incredible. The house was incredibly clean (so clean we felt we had to clean it a bit ourselves before leaving), resident neighbors were friendly, and the location is great for those wanting to travel the west coast of the island. There is no A/C which I thought would be an issue but with the ocean breeze and open windows in May we were more than content, I even slept in the loft bed.
Marilyn was just fantastic to work with, simply put.

Our stay was amazing at this gorgeous home with fabulous views! The views were even better than the pictures show. We would definitely stay here again!! Close to Lahaina and Whaler’s Village. This home and location is exactly what we pictured Maui to look like! It was very, very clean and everything was exactly as described. So nicely decorated too. Grounds are beautiful. Marilyn is so kind and helpful! There is a book with recommendations and information which was so thoughtful. We also saw so many sea turtles! This home is amazing and we highly recommend to stay here!! It’s absolutely beautiful and the views are just fabulous!! This home is awesome!! Aloha!

We spent hours on the balcony watching whales and turtles. Close LaHaina for dinner and shopping the the evening. The only issue is there is no air conditioning which wasn’t really a problem for us.

We stayed the end of February and was immediately welcomed with a breathtaking view as soon as we opened the door. The sound of wind and waves was constant, which provided the breeze needed instead of AC. Watching whales from a distance and the surfers provided a lot of entertainment. The islands from either direction provided postcard quality views. Be aware there are stairs to get to the unit and smoking areas are not convenient. There was only one problem I had and that was leaving.

Great location and ocean views, unit is well stocked, only 1 on-site parking spot, sleep to the sound of the waves & surf, would definitely recommend & rent again

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Marilyn's condo. It has the best location in the entire complex- panoramic oceanfront views, and great location close enough to Lahaina town, but away from the traffic. Also walking distance to some really outstanding restaurants (Miso Phat) and the beach! Clean and modern unit, had everything we wanted amenities-wise for our stay. Check in/out was extremely easy, and Marilyn was super responsive with the couple questions we had. We would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking a place to stay in Maui! Mahalo!

This place was beautiful and filled with the sounds of the surf. They kindly supplied beach chairs and even binoculars. We saw sea turtles on the sand up the beach a little— it was just perfect. Would definitely come here again.

It just doesn’t get much better than this! Steps away from the water to swim with turtles. Front row seats to sunrise and sunsets on the lanai. Condo is well supplied, nicely furnished, and comfy beds. Feel asleep to peaceful ocean waves every night.

Upon arrival the scenery and vista from the condo is breathtaking. The photos don't quite do it justice. The grounds were very well kept, on par with a golf course. The lanai is spacious enough to eat meals on and when we ate in the unit, we ate outside. When we checked in we stayed around the property for most of the evening as it was beautiful enough to be a destination in and of itself.
The amenities are in top condition, the unit was five-star clean (no stray webs, hairs, etc). The beds were on the firm side, which is our preference. It was very impressive that the unit is free from corrosion and salt build up - having lived on Windward Oahu for four years, I would have ocean-front issues but this unit is fresh.
Getting to the main road is easy. The parking was included. Beach a few hundred yards down the road. You can scale down the rocks to a plateau to play a little in the water but it's not exactly swim access. Lahaina turned out to be very easy to navigate with basically two North-South roads and a handful of cross streets. The main Lahaina resort area and shopping was a few miles South, with a decent selection of restaurants in a couple of plazas North and South of the condo complex.

The tropical sights and sounds of the ocean from the moment we stepped onto the pathway leading to the condo were incredibly beautiful. And views from the condo itself were amazing - the gorgeous blues of the ocean, the turtles swimming close by, surfers, boats, birds, rainbows and so much more. The condo was perfect for our party of six adults - plenty of space to lounge inside and outside (the wraparound balcony was a favorite spot), prepare and enjoy meals, sleep or rest, be together or be alone in one's own thoughts. Each room was comfortable and nicely furnished. The kitchen was stocked with all the wares and dishes needed to prepare and serve a great meal. The pool was refreshing and the grounds lovely. The property was nicely landscaped and maintained. All the other residents were respectful and friendly. Our stay here was definitely a highlight of our Maui vacation. Thank you Marilyn!

Everything about this property was well thought out and amazingly comfortable for our party of five. The beds were all wonderful, the amount of airflow was perfect- but if it got too warm there were ceiling and floor fans. Bathrooms were nicely appointed, and the kitchen had everything we needed and more.
The corner unit was amazing, from sunsets to stargazing to honu viewing, it was the best unit by far. Spectacular views of Molokai and Lanai, and ample seating from the lanai to view everything. Great snorkeling right off shore too.

The property was the most amazing place I have ever stayed. They had everything you need and more!! The view and patio are magical .. the sunsets, the ocean, the snorkeling ❤️ I will be back and would recommend this property to anyone. The stairs up to master bedroom are step which was fine for us but could pose difficulties for some. I couldn’t have asked for a better vacation 🌈
