The space

Our condo is DIRECT OCEANFRONT, BEACHFRONT!

You can't get any closer to the ocean than our condo! Maalaea village is a gem with its central location and its fantastic trade winds. They provide a cooling breeze that keeps the temperatures just right. Just in case the cross breeze in the unit isn't enough for you, we have a newly installed split A/C (as of February 2020) in the living room, downstairs bedroom and upstairs loft bedroom. There are ceiling fans in the master and loft bedroom and a floor fan in the second bedroom. Please note that the second bedroom upstairs does not have any windows. It also has low, slanted ceilings, making it best suited for a children's room.

From the lanai, gaze out and watch the sun rise over Haleakala. Watch green sea turtles bobbing up for air and rolling in the surf. In the winter months (Nov-April) you will have a front row seat to breaching whales.

Beautifully landscaped grounds with a heated pool. Slip into the pool and enjoy the ocean view while you relax in the Maui sun.

The kitchen has stainless steel appliances and is fully equipped with cooking utensils, pots, pans, blender and all of the other basic supplies to comfortably enjoy cooking and eating in. There is also a great BBQ area oceanfront so you can enjoy the view while you cook up some delicious food!

At the end of our cul-de-sac is Sugar Beach, 3-4 minute walk from the unit.

A 5 minute walk in the opposite direction takes you to Maalaea Harbor where you will find a small grocery store, deli, craft market, restaurants and the Maui Ocean Center (Maui’s #1 tourist attraction), the Pacific Whale Foundation, miniature golf, shopping and most of the ocean activities available on Maui (sunset dinner cruises, deep sea fishing, snorkeling tours & whale watching).

Centrally located, Maalaea is a place of stay that makes getting anywhere on the island easy. You will be 15 minutes from the airport; a 5 minute drive south to Kihei and a bit further, the resorts of Wailea; and 20 minutes to Lahaina. You couldn’t be in a better location to explore all Maui has to offer.

Loved our stay! Excellent communication with the host (a big plus). Home as described with outstanding views (and good wifi). Loved watching the sun rise and set, and seeing the whales in the distance and the turtles that rested on shore each night. The home was a great space for my family of 4 adults. Easy walking distance to the harbor and the beach. The best thing was the location. Quiet, low traffic area with easy access to the entire island. Would definitely stay here again and will recommend to friends traveling to Maui. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Melanie's condo was fabulous! My family and I had such an amazing time at the condo! The views from the lanai were perfect! As soon as we can come back to Maui, we would love to stay at this condo! Very clean place!

Great location in Maalaea, short drive to everything. The place accommodated our needs perfectly. Loved that there were beach chairs and towels, umbrellas and a cooler to use.

It was nice condo. I liked the location. When we check in, the number of the key to open the door was wrong. It took hours to enter the condo. It was nightmare !

Our family had a wonderful time at Melanie's property. The condo was clean and well stocked with everything we needed. The view was our favorite part! We saw see turtles from the balcony and up close almost everyday. The location was incredible as well. The condo is in close proximity to a lot of amazing beaches and restaurants on the island. We would highly recommend this property to anyone who wishes to stay in Maui. Thank you for an amazing stay!

Really enjoyed our stay at the condo property. While the condo complex itself is older, inside the unit is completely redone and is very nice. Great bathroom and kitchen that have been redone. Two king beds was great especially for my teen and pre-teen that after we stayed in a cramped hotel the two nights prior. The location is really nice to the harbor where you can take rides to see Molokini Crater (we did this it was fantastic) or go to other activities. Communication was great, check in was super easy. Overall was really good experience.

This condo was perfect for me, my husband and our two teens. I spent every morning watching the surfers (we got to experience "Freight Train" while in town), turtles and the beautiful view while I had my coffee, and every evening with a glass of wine. We appreciated having beach towels, chairs, snorkel gear and sand toys available. I enjoyed the lending library in the lobby and the condo was centrally located for all that we did the week we were in Maui. We also appreciated not having to bring soap, shampoo, conditioner, laundry pods and coffee "stuff" (although I did buy extra "just in case"). The attic bedroom is warm without A/C but there is a fan that we ran at night. The kitchen could use new glasses and more than just salt and pepper in terms of cooking ingredients. We had to find a beach that we could swim in, the one adjacent to the property is very rocky...but overall, we had a great time! Mahalo!

My wife and I rented the property for 9 days for our "family moon." We got married and we all enjoyed all that Maui has to offer. The property was perfect for us. It is beachfront with gorgeous views and the Feliciano's are excellent hosts. We can't wait to come back.

Our stay here was excellent. We got to see green sea turtles every day we were there. There's not a whole lot of beach but it was fine to swim/snorkel in the area when the water is more calm. The condo is central to all the places we wanted to visit. Condo was very clean and consists of basic kitchen supplies, toiletries, bedding, beach chairs & umbrellas. My only complaint is the living room area doesn't exactly fit 6 people comfortably but it did the job. The attic bedroom doesn't have AC but they do supply fans to keep the room cool with the door open. The décor was very nice. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to come back soon.

This property is very centrally located on Maui and had great ocean view. We saw sea turtles and humpback whales daily from the condo. This condo was great for a family as it was a very quiet neighborhood. Overall we very much enjoyed our stay.

I loved the decor and the views from the condo. We watched the sunrise from the balcony each morning and enjoyed seeing whales and turtles every day! The owners have done a great job of making the home comfortable and making you feel welcome. I would definitely stay here again!

The home was in a perfect location, end of the building with an ideal view of the ocean, and nice privacy). There were just a few mishaps that were handled pretty efficiently (the couch leg broke and was fixed, the screen ripped and was fixed, and the washer started leaking and was also fixed). Overall great place to stay.

We absolutely loved our stay! The views from the balcony were mesmerizing from sun up to sundown. The place was well suited to our group, and we loved the location and amenities: snorkeling with sea turtles right out front, hanging out at sugar beach, and also at the pool and hot tub, listening to one of the staff, Buzz (who also had all sorts of great tips about activities) play and sing Hawaiian, rock and Fijiian music by the water, cooking on the barbecue. We loved having this place as our home base as we explored the entire island - the central location was perfect - coming home to cook, play cards, watch movies, and get ready for the next adventure! Walking 10 minutes to get on our snorkeling cruise to Molokini crater was also handy! Melanie was highly responsive and easy to communicate with and the place had everything we needed to head to the beach - towels, boogie boards, chairs, umbrellas. The only thing we missed out on was the whales!

This location is PERFECT. Close to everything but not at all crowded. Beautiful condo with gorgeous views and TURTLES on the beach!! We would definitely stay here again.

We stayed a week and could not have been happier with the location. We were in the middle of everything and yet away from it all. We were close to the access to the Volcano, the road to Hana, snorkeling, and hiking. Easy to get to restaurants and shopping needs. A wonderful family week.

Excellent condo with an amazing view! It is centrally located and a short drive to several other places on the island. The accommodations are very nice and comfortable. The owner contacted us before our stay, during and after to check on us. Also being from out of town it was nice to have extras like boogie boards, snorkeling masks, beach chairs and beach towels. It is a short walk to a very nice beach or a short drive to many other beaches. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great place to stay in Maui!

There were some problems with the property due to a water leak. Melanie worked hard to rectify the problems. Although she wasn’t able to rectify all the problems she did make a generous accommodation. Overall, a very pleasurable vacation.

We had a wonderfull time in Maui. The apartment is extremely nice and clean, quiet, nice pool, plenty of big turtles on the beach, well located (central to the island). We strongly recommend.

We had a great time. Couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. Close to the airport and in the middle of the Island. We will stay here again. Thank you for everything.

We like the condo and location and view and it had everything we needed- what we didn't know is that they were tearing the roof off while we were there. The condo is on the fourth floor right under the roof. Dirt fell from the ceiling on our beds, bathroom floor, kitchen, and stairs while we were there. The banging and nailing was very loud and woke us up when we wanted to sleep. This went on for about half the time we were there. This was very disappointing. The owner apparently did not know this was transpiring.

Loved the condo for our party of 5. Walking distance to the aquarium and a short drive to Kihei and Lahaina. The condo is beautifully accommodated; the entire unit looks like it was completely redone recently. The best part was realizing that, as we sat in the lanai overlooking the ocean below, what we thought were boulders were actually big green turtles diving for food!

We love the location, near the Maui Ocean Center & harbor. It’s less crowded & not as touristy, and it’s about 20 minutes to most places in Kihei or Lahaina. Condo was clean & well kept. Owner Melanie was super responsive & helpful. The smallest room is really small, but worked out for my two kids to share. Would definitely stay again!



November 2018
Four friends stayed in this lovely condo and it fit our needs perfectly. The complex has a pool, shared bbqs, and beautiful views of the ocean. The full kitchen was well used as we ate most dinners in. We were perfectly situated to get to Kihei or Lahaina under 30 minutes and visited both multiple times. Melanie was so easy to contact and get responses from. We’d definitely recommend this space.
