I hope we see a loser. Lemon views from the property were spectacular. When you arrive for the first time, look for Wailea Ekolu PLACE, rather than driving to the pin in Google maps, and you will find it easily.

Nice 1 bed unit near all the great Wailea restaraunts. Definitely need a car to get to the beach if you are going to schkepp chairs and toys. Nice view from the lanai, though we found the outdoor furniture uncomfortable to sut at for any length of time.

We had a wonderful stay in Jeff's condo. The unit is wonderfully furnished, with superior furnishings to what you usually see in a vacation rental. Listing is accurately described in the listing. Great value for the price.

The property was perfect for us. Nice, large and well appointed unit. Great views. Clean and well maintained.
Ideal location near shops and beach. Lots of beach accessories available in the unit, saving time and money. Will definitely search for this unit again when the time comes to look into booking for next year.

The view from the lanai is outstanding as described in the posting. The unit was comfortable and had adequate supplies. We had an issue with the internet/tv that was not addressed in a timely manner. No response by management fir 12 hrs.

Let me start by saying if you’re traveling to Maui to sightsee everything they have to offer….this place isn’t for you. Wait for it, because you’ll never want to leave this condo! The peacefulness (so quiet) the condo greets you with the most beautiful smells of the Plumeria trees. Walking out to the patio you are hit by the most outrageous views from left to right of the ocean. The sunsets from the deck are to die for. Sit outside in the comfort of this place watching the sunset is breathtaking. Onthe patio is a beautiful table set to sit on for meals or to admire the views. Inside the condo is a bed that is so comfortable and is provided with many pillows for your needs. The master bathroom has a tub/ shower and toilet in a separate are from the vanity area.A full size washer and dryer. Lots of closet space for the savvy dresser. A small deck outside the master that holds beach chairs, umbrella and a rolling ice cooler to take to the beach. In the kitchen there are beautiful appliances. Plenty of upgrades such as the pots and pans. My only complaint is that it would be wonderful to have more seasonings for cooking. But, as an easy fix bring your own or don’t cook lol. The living room and bedroom have large tv’s that have many channels to choose from. There is a wonderful, comfortable couch that doubles as a hide abed I . We didn’t use a hide abed as it was just the 2 of us but with all the quality things this condo has I believe the hide abed would be just s nice.

This was a beautiful place to stay! Jeff was an awesome host with great accommodations! It is really close to the MonkeyPod Kitchen (great restaurant), the shops and the beach. All are walking distance from the Vrbo. The Vrbo has an outdoor balcony that offers spectacular views to look out onto. Thank you Jeff for letting us use your place for part of our stay in Maui! We would definitely return to this Vrbo.. Mahalo!

I was on Maui to assist with my cousin’s transition. Jeff was understanding and compassionate to my cause. His condo was perfect for our reason for being there. It’s very private, quiet and well supplied. My wife cooked gourmet meals every night and we ate on the lanai enjoying the evening breeze. Every morning we woke to beautiful ocean views and beautiful sunsets in the evening. If I return to Maui I will be contacting Jerry to rebook his condo. Thanks for everything, Jerry!

Enjoyed the panoramic ocean views and stunning Maui sunsets from the lanai. The views were beautiful. Very easy check in. Clear instructions which was much appreciated.
Comfortable unit, not to fussy and EVERYTHING
you could need. Well supplied kitchen, beach chairs, cooler, even sunscreen! Close to shopping, restaurants and the beach! But quiet. Really a great choice.

This was our 2nd visit to this property. Jeff is a great host. Very communicative and quickly responds to any questions during the stay. The condo has fantastic views and is so convenient to restaurants, shopping, and beautiful beaches. It was stocked with kitchen basics, good towels, and lots of beach equipment. We love staying here!

Condo is in a great location, close to beaches, restaurants, bars and shopping. The host had everything needed for a great day on the beach. Kitchen is very well equipped (although we didn't dine in). Bathrooms are spacious with plenty of storage. Couch is comfortable and converts to a sleeper. The mattress on the pull out couch is thin and probably not substantial enough for two adults. Sleeper could also use some high quality cotton sheets and a cotton blanket.
There is a rug in the living room that is not soft under foot and I tripped on it many times.
The items previously mentioned in another review in disrepair are still in need of attention but didn't impact the stay at all. Overall it was a great stay for two of us.
April 2024
There was water in the refrigerator vegetable bins. A towel rack in the guest bathroom was coming off the wall. Coffee cups and knives were not clean. Front door screen did not close properly. The unit was very dark. The water filter did not work. The floor mat in the living room was unsightly and uncomfortable to walk on. There were too many plants that cluttered the unit. The lint filter was cracked and bent. The drape in the living room was missing a hook.

We had a lovely time during our stay in Maui. The condo is strategically located up on a hill with a fabulous 180-degree ocean view from the patio. I never went inside! It's great, too, if you want some exercise. You can walk down the hill to the Shops at Wailea and walk up again. The Grand Wailea, the boardwalk and the shops are all within walking distance. We hardly ever used the car. Thank you for such a lovely stay!

This condo is in a perfect location for a great stay in Wailea. Make some breakfast and sit on the patio with a breathtaking view each morning! You can walk down the hill in just a few minutes to shops, eats, groceries, beautiful walking path along the beach, public beach (condo has chairs/umbrella), and some amazing coffee places too. Uber back up the hill for $7ish. The pool is lovely and very private too or you can get day passes to the resorts below and enjoy full service food and beverages. The bed could use a nice tempur-pedic topper from Costco and maybe some additional Costco cozy blankets too. We would book again in a heartbeat! Thanks Jeff!

Our first visit to Maui and our stay at 1608 the sky in Wailea was the perfect vacation to celebrate our 40th Anniversary! The condo had amazing beautiful views especially the sunsets, if we weren't out exploring the island, we did not miss it! 1608 had everything we needed and more, from a wonderfully stocked kitchen to a comfy king bed to a beautiful lanai with views! Jeff was easy to book with and very helpful! We highly recommend! And can't wait to return!

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. Jeff was a great host and very communicative before our arrival - check in was a breeze. The view from the lanai is excellent and we were able to get in some late season whale watching. If you're looking for a clean, well stocked property with great views - look no further.

Jeff’s place made our stay in Maui very comfortable. The location is very convenient…close to restaurants, shops and beaches. The view from the lanai is breathtaking and we had breakfast there every morning. The kitchen is stocked with basic things you need for cooking , and we were grateful to have beach chairs and umbrellas provided to take to the beach every day. The pool was nearby too and water was like tub temperature. We just loved the place so much that we’d rather just hang out there than go out! So thankful to find this gem that was definitely a home away from home.

This is a beautiful condo that was very clean and well stocked. Our one month stay (second time in Mr. Kazansky's properties) was like being at home and we were very comfortable. The views and property are spectacular. The dishwasher intermittently worked during the visit but this is a fixable concern. We are booking for next year!

We enjoyed our stay at Jeff’s condo. He had everything we needed for a comfortable 3 week stay. The reason I gave a 4 star review is because there was a problem with our internet. Jeff did his best to try and get it resolved but it took a number of visits to get it fixed. This was an issue with the cable company so I know it was frustrating for Jeff also. I believe it is all good to go now. We were very happy with everything else. There are 4 beach chairs, umbrella and big cooler to use which is nice. Air conditioning in living room and bedroom. We would stay here again!

Enjoyed our 9 nights at Ekolu 1608. The panoramic view from the lanai is awesome; very peaceful. Hung out there a lot! Well stocked kitchen; comfy living room; nicely decorated. Only knock would be that the carpets are old but other than that no issues. Place was clean, correspondence with the owner was timely. Can’t imagine paying 3-4 times more to stay in a nearby resort! We’ll be back to Ekolu.

This is our fourth time staying on Maui and this condo was great. The kitchen was well stocked with a good appliance package, communication with the owner was A1, the vantage from the lanai was great for romantic sunset viewing. The condo was clean and well maintained. I would recommend this place to any of our friends and family looking for a couple's getaway.
