The view was absolutely amazing. We enjoyed whales every day. Most of the furniture is long on the tooth. Property management had to send out a person to clean the blood and dirt off the arms of the chairs. The floors weren't very clean, so they sent someone to mop. The toilet bowl brush sat directly on the floor next to the toilet. Not sanitary. I asked for someone to remove a two-foot streak of bird poop on the picture window and no one was able to do that. We were told a window cleaning was scheduled March 8th, but that did not happen. The bedroom sliding doors were streaky. One of the living room blinds would not rise to the top. I asked someone to take care of that, but no one did. I had to ask for more silverware. There was barely enough for 2 people. We paid 300.00 for an extension on our checkout but had to call at least three times because new codes they provided didn't work. We therefore wouldn't have access to get back into the room if we had gone to lunch or to the pool. So we stayed in the room all day. If it were updated and cleaner, it would be perfection. Fabulous view. Quiet pool. Duke's Restaurant is a ten-minute walk. Very good food and location. We would stay at Mahana again but in a different unit. We liked the corner room. More windows. Lanai was very private. I believe before guests arrive, the above-mentioned issues should be taken care of, not afterward.

The view and access to the beach!

This condo is very old and in need of significant updating and upkeep. The furniture, fixtures, and overall condition are dated, and there are visible maintenance issues.The most serious issue occurred on our third day. After returning from the beach, we opened the door and were immediately hit with an extremely strong medicinal/alcohol-like smell throughout the condo. The odor was overwhelming and clearly coming from the air-conditioning unit. We felt dizzy and unwell and had to open all windows and doors to ventilate the space.We contacted all listed property contacts due to the seriousness of the issue, especially since we were with our children. We were told someone would inspect the unit, so we left the condo for several hours. After more than 4 hours with no update, we followed up and were told someone had already been there and that “nothing was wrong” and no smell was detected, despite the odor being unmistakable.Customer service later told us there were no alternate accommodations and suggested we stay elsewhere and seek reimbursement later. We were promised follow-up the next day, which never happened. Out of concern for our health, we did not use the air conditioner for the remainder of our stay and kept the windows open instead. There was clearly something wrong with the unit despite management denying it.The only positive is the waterfront location and view, though the ocean directly in front is rocky and not suitable for swimming.We will not be returning

What I liked:-beautiful direct views of the beach from the living interior area and the balcony-great furnishings and decoration-well stocked with kitchen cookware, serving ware, and utensils-in unit washer/dryer-clean interior-grill and pool/hot tub were great amenitiesWhat I didn’t like: -no warning that the AC was not working properly; even with the shades down the apartment was at 80 degrees; not great with a baby; the building sent notice that repairs would take place the day of our departure-only given 4 dishwasher pods for a seven night stay (it won’t kill you to just keep a box of dishwasher detergent under the sink like most short term rentals); ultimately the property manager sent more, but only after having to beg for them-balcony was covered in sand, had to sweep and wash off the balcony myself-guest room ac smells like mildew

Great location beautiful views. Unit was comfortable. Dishwasher does not clean . Both bathrooms need work. Showers have mold. Toilets are so low and old. Kitchen faucet doesn’t turn off you have to play with it to stop. Master faucet has a leak.

Pros: We spent two days in Maui and rented this condo. The location is nice and the view from the condo is really pretty.
Cons: Infested with roaches. I know Hawaii is full of them, but we killed 5 large ones in a matter of minutes in the kitchen our first morning, and saw countless small ones running in and out of outlets, behind pictures, baseboards, etc… the unit smelled very musty as well.
Check in was terrible. We had an issue with the lock and called the number they gave to call if there was a problem, and they never answered or called back. Fortunately we were able to figure it out.
There are tons of other rentals in maui at this price point, definitely rent elsewhere.

From the breath-taking views to the luxurious condo, this condo is amazing! Can't recommend it highly enough! Can't wait to come back!

A corner unit, views of the pool, pacific and neighboring islands. We saw dolphins and turtles from the patio. The apartment was clean and well appointed. I’d love to come back!

This was our fourth trip to the island and this was by far the best view we've ever had. Friends stayed in a similar-priced resort room at Kaanapali and they were envious of our view and the quieter pace of life at our pool. Small beachfront, but low population so not crowded.
Unit was as represented a perfect space for traveling as a family with two teenagers.

We really enjoyed our time staying here with such amazing views! The unit is nice but could use some updates like carpet, paint. We had trouble with the dishwasher and it took two separate visits to get it fixed (on our last day). A few small annoyances like the bathroom sink doesn't drain very well, garbage disposal button gets stuck and only ceiling fan in dining area was replaced during our visit. We stayed six nights and would stay at this unit again.

This was our fourth time coming back to Maui and we’ve stayed at different places each time. I must say this condo was very nice and the view was amazing!!! From the windows. We saw turtles looking out in the morning at the ocean. The condo was clean and great access to the beach which you can walk both directions down the beach. I loved at night sleeping with the door open and hearinf the waves crash in. The lania was awesome too. We would recommend this place to stay and close to many things

Condo nicely decorated and very clean! Beds and bedding very nice with condo environment comfortable with tropical breeze or A/C. Kitchen well equipped, making meal prep easy for group of 4. Views were spectacular of Lanai and Molokai, daily surfers catching waves, and sunsets! Property maintenance kept pool and spa very clean, with fresh towels always available. Wonderful staff too! We would recommend and stay again!

As we were at the airport waiting for our flight... we got the news that the condo was not ready. What happened? Well I guess construction was not complete. It seems like we would have found out about this prior to the day we were traveling. I don't know what else to say. I understand covid and/or delay in construction may be out of your control, but it does not dismiss that fact that owner/property manager should have known this prior to day of arrival.

Mahana 501 is great. The best views on the island, you cannot get any closer to the water. Our family of 4 had plenty of space and the property was very comfortable. The faucet in the master leaked so they had to shut the water off in that bathroom for our stay so that was a little inconvenient for us. The beaches for swimming and sand are about a 5-10 min walk from the property and were great for all ages. The room has everything you need and it was great to grill and cook meals on sight. I highly recommend this property and thank you for having our family.

Our family enjoyed our stay at this amazing condo. The pictures are spot on. The view is to die for. The condo was supplied with everything that we needed and more. It was super clean and the beds were comfortable. I would definitely stay here again.

Overall, a great location and stay. Only two things I would recommend. First, leave the AC ON and the window shades down so when your guests arrive it’s not 80 degrees in the living room. It’s not a good first impression to be so hot and it took several hours to cool the place down once it was so hot. Second, update the washer and dryer. I felt bad for using them honestly because I felt like they were so loud the guests below us could hear them.

This is a very nice condo in a great location. The pool and hot tub are just basic. The VRBO listing shows a really nice pool. That photo is not this property! Really somewhat deceptive.

This is our 4th time to Maui and our 2nd time with a vrbo. Aston Mahana #501 was beautiful and spotlessly clean with breathtaking views!! There were 3 of us and it never felt crowded. Ample kitchen supplies and closet space.

Perfect. Very spacious and well designed floor plan. Beautiful closeup beachfront view of the ocean, Lanai, Molokai especially at sunset with crashing waves on beach directly below. Elegant Asian art decor, quality furniture, kitchen appliance, washer & dryer and very comfortable beds.. All amenities were provided and everything worked in this condo. Excellent air conditioning system. Good TV and internet. Very helpful service and welcome greeting from property manager.

Fantastic location and view!!!! Room was decorated nicely, tons of storage and they provided a beach closet of items! Very quiet at pool 🏊♀️ which was nice and it’s 4ft-9ft deep. You can’t swim in front due to large amounts of rock and coral.

My family and I had a lovely vacation in Maui. The condo view is priceless... ineffable. Everything was five star. The only thing I would recommend to the owner is to stock the kitchen with the basic supplies we needed. I will email them separately. I look forward to a return visit.
