Aloha! Our condo is a 1 BR/1 BA clean and quiet end unit with an amazing ocean view! We understand that the importance of cleanliness has never been more critical. Rest assured that our unit has been professionally cleaned and sanitized so that you can enjoy a peaceful visit. The kitchen was remodeled in 2015 complete with new appliances, including a new washer and dryer. The bedroom has a queen bed, dresser and large closet. In addition, the bedroom has a tv and dvd player. The living room has a full sofa bed. Linens and towels are provided and the kitchen is equipped to make your stay as worry free as possible. The bedroom and living room have ceiling fans and there is A/C in case the trade winds don’t keep you cool enough. In the living room you will find a HD television with Direct TV and an incredible view if you’re looking to unplug. You can watch amazing sunrises over Haleakala (10,023 foot dormant volcano) and sublime sunsets while gazing at Molokini and Kaho’olawe all from the comfort of your lanai.

Ma'alaea Banyans is an ocean front property that features beach access, two outdoor grills, a swimming pool and is the only property in Ma'alaea with a jacuzzi! Haycraft Park and Sugar Beach are just a 1/4 mile walk down the street. Sugar Beach is one of the longest beaches on Maui, stretching 2.5 miles to North Kihei. You can stay right in Ma’alaea to enjoy a variety of activities; swimming, snorkeling, body surfing, boogie boarding, surfing, paddle boarding, kayaking, fishing or just watch the green sea turtles all along the shore or spy whales breaching (late Nov - Apr).

Ma'alaea Harbor is less than 1/2 mile away and features yummy restaurants, shops, the Maui Ocean Center and Maui Golf & Sports Park (putt putt, rock climbing wall, x-treme trampoline and bumper boats). The harbor is also a launching point for boats going to Molokini for snorkeling, on dinner cruises, or whale watching.

Ma'alaea is nestled in between Lahaina and Kihei and is about 10 miles from the Kahului airport. This central location is ideal if you plan to venture out to experience more of what Maui has to offer. Travel the famous Road to Hana (7 Sacred Pools), ascend through upcountry to the top of Haleakala, explore Paia (and Ho'okipa Lookout), Ka'anapali (Black Rock), Lahaina (Banyan Tree), Kihei (Kamaole Beach Parks), Wailea as well as Makena State Park (Big Beach), and Ioa Valley State Park. There are a plethora of fabulous hikes and endless adventures. Have fun!

Come and see for yourself why Maui is No Ka Oi (is the best)!

Mahalo,
The Benjamin Ohana (family)

The listing is beautiful and the pictures dont do it justice. Everything is relatively close and the beach is a small walk away. Thanks again!

The condo is nice - well stocked with lots of beach equipment. There is a good sized lanai with a beautiful view of the ocean. It’s just a few steps to the water, where we saw lots of sea turtles. Nice, quiet building in a nice, quiet area. Owner is very easy to reach with questions. Just be aware that the check out instructions include: “Please wash sheets and towels separately. Please leave clean/dry sheets and towels on the bed.”

This place is a perfect location. We could see whales right outside the lanai. turtles too Washer and dryer great; Ample parking. Cons: they request you to do laundry while you're there. We had to put away previous tenants sheets and also start laundry of our own sheets before leaving. They requested us to throw out garbage and to start the dishwasher. all of this while paying over $$$ for cleaning fee. I don't want to clean on vacation. And then pay for cleaning. This unit is very much dated. the view is lovely. Whales galore! Owner great.

Ma’alaea is a perfect location. The area is quiet and close to Kihei and Lahaina. Harbor is a short walk and offers restaurants and some souvenir shopping.

One and foremost, the views was stunning and the location was key. Short walk to the pier made this place an awesome place to stay. Waking up to the crash of the oceans and birds chirping was the best! Definitely would book and again and solid communication to our host was perfect. We were well taken care of!

I booked a last minuet trip to make it to a friends wedding! Ron was a great host with great communication. I really enjoyed that the location was in quiet area and had great beaches with access right out front or a short walk to the end of the road. It was a simple process from start to finish, the place was clean, and view was incredible. Can't wait to go back! Thanks Again Ron!

As a frequent guest in this complex I feel it behoves me to give a detailed review so as to aid the possible client that are looking at this unit. Owners tend to show their pictures of the units in the best light and enhance the qualities of the unit and the complex. First, let me say that I stayed at this complex for seven weeks, the first four in a beautifully remodeled condo on the second floor that was wonderfully equipped with everything a guest might need. I then moved to this unit. This condo was a letdown, the bed was a queen, the bathroom was a mix of newer and very old and the kitchen was what I would call a neutral. The appliances all functioned, but the dishes were all cheap ceramics from a big asian country. The silverware was all entry level. The living room furniture consisted of three pieces of furniture, two of which were chairs in the Hawaiian style of having thin wood arms. The couch hide a bed was very comfortable and was fully upholstered, no rattan style arms here. The lanai's at this complex are quite large, the furniture on the lanai consisted of four chairs and a table which was adequate. The sliding glass to the lanai worked very well while the sliding screen was balky and had a broken handle on the inside which added to the difficulty. The screen also had two holes in it. The view from the lanai is nice, but not 180 as there is a private compound right next door with tall trees that impede the view to your left. The unit had two overhead fans which operated by chainpull, there were no remotes and no built in lights. The living room had a air conditioner that blew cold, but had no remote. The unit had carpeting in the br and lr that seemed fine, but the owner has told me he will be replacing said carpet with some form of wood. The beach that they describe is not really a swimming beach, it is a small sandy area that goes from sand to rock at the waterline. To me , this was not a negative, but to a family with tykes who are expecting to go out back and swim it might be. There is a beach about a eight minute walk away that is user friendly In closing I will say that I have stayed at this complex four times for a total of 25 weeks and have had to deal with smokers three out of the four times smoking on the lanai immediately under me. The complex has a designated smoking area's, but some smokers feel the rules are only for the little people.

Walking distance (half mile) to harbor, aquarium, restaurants, shops. You can book any excursion at Boss Frogs. Great BBQ in the little shopping center too with free parking. (Harbor parking is only $0.50 per hour) Nice pool and waterfront at the condo including a couple gas grills available for owners / tenants although we didn't use them other than a quick dip in the hot tub. Condo has ALL the features you need. It is a little dated and but in good condition and very comfortable and more than sufficient. Laundry in unit was a huge plus. Dishwasher and full size fridge too. Owner was very helpful and easy to work with. I have no idea how he can rent such an amazing unit at this low price. The biggest down side is that tenant is required to wash and dry all bedding and towels before a 10:00 checkout. There was some laundry soap but only enough for 1 load so I had to make a run to Safeway last minute. My wife was kind enough to skip last morning excursion to stay back and clean. :-( All in all, we would absolutely stay here again!
