My daughter and I really enjoyed our stay! The property was right on the beach and a very short walk to Ululani’s shaved ice! It was a quiet, relaxing community and I would definitely stay here again!

We have stayed at maalea surf resort a handful of times, each time in a different unit. D-10 is a great unit and the view is definitely the highlight. Having that unobstructed view makes for the perfect morning / evening to just sit and watch the waves. This unit had everything we needed. We found chairs, umbrella, boogie board, day use cooler and ice packs in the freezer. These things are always appreciated, we added some sand toys to the collection for the next family. A few small flaws. The carpets both up stairs and downstairs both had large stains likely due to water? Looked like it could have come in from the main slider downstairs. Also we were informed by a sign to be careful because ants were common. We definitely did have some ant issues in the unit despite being very cautious with food and cleanliness. We saw them most in the bathroom actually. These things did not take away from our love of this place at all however just some notes to make it the perfect unit. We love the location of the unit. We can head to anywhere on the island without spending too long traveling. A fun highlight for us was walking down the beach a short way and getting breakfast at the sugar beach bakery and walking back. There is also shave ice, a fruit stand and a little store.

Just completed a week long stay in Unit D10 of the Ma'alaea Surf Resort. Before I review the unit, I want to review the property. This property sits on the beach (Sugar/Kihei) and is right on the water. The facility is over 50 years old, but the staff and grounds crew keep it looking tropical and manicured. From the extensive gardens to the tennis/pickle ball courts to the swimming pools every day staff is making sure everything looks great. The grass is truly a lawn. Unit D10 was perfect for my wife and I. Second floor unit that had a balcony that looked right onto the beach and bay. Great deck furniture that made reading or just viewing and visiting out there comfortable and the sound of crashing waves was in perfect harmony with the views. Unit was well maintained. The kitchen had all of the needed appliances and dishware/utensils. Nice family room and dining area that also offered views of the water. There is a full bath on main level which was handy. Second floor/loft was the bedroom with full bath. the bed was excellent and the AC was always cold which made sleeping easy and again sound of waves was always present. No washer/dryer in the unit, however on the lower level there was coin operated machines that we're also excellent. Location is Sugar Beach area and a very short walk to a great bake shop for morning coffee and pastries, and a convenience store that has just about everything. Once the afternoon heats up the Shave Iced store opens and other than the long lines to get this treat you will find it is worth the wait once you make your purchase. If we travel back to Maui (likely) I am sure we will first look to stay at this resort and hopefully secure this condo when the time comes.

I love the condo and have booked next year. Upstairs bathtub needs new caulking and bath tub stopper; screen to patio lanai needs replacement or repair (tear in screen) and sliding glass doors need adjustment (very hard to close on right side); upstairs scale should be removed from main bedroom floor (closet); keep eye on outside cushion replacement.

This was our first stay at Ma'alaea Surf and it is our new favorite place to stay in Maui. If you're looking for a the most relaxing place to stay, this is it. And, this condo is right on the ocean and the complex has pickleball courts...this couldn't be better! We tried to be back to the condo every day for the most incredible sunsets right from the lanai. We will be back next year!

The location could not be better. This is a beautiful, quiet stretch of beach, which is hard to find so near the airport, dining, and other attractions. The unit is very well appointed with everything you need, including a few extras like beach chairs, a coffee grinder, toaster oven, and plentiful towels. A word to the wise...this lovely property has been flooded in the past, so they have installed flood protection gates which when implemented block both exits from the parking lot. Property managers are working on the best means of communication in advance so you won't be caught unawares as we were, but just keep in mind that if heavy rain is forecast, and you will need your car out, you may need to make arrangements in advance with the office.The property manager, Malea, was professional, friendly, and easy to reach by text. All in all, an experience we hope to repeat!

Ma’alaea Surf is a wonderful facility and great location if you enjoy the beach. Unfortunately we were there after a flood so the property was not at its best, but we still enjoyed our stay. There are many restaurants and shops close by which was very convenient. The condo had a lovely view. Wish there had been a couple boogie boards. 😊

We had a group of 17 family members staying on this property in various condos. This condo was the best of those we rented. It was clean, accommodating and had the most amazing view. The grounds were immaculate and expansive. Both pools were clean and inviting. We would definitely stay here again.

I love this property and would stay again. It was a little difficult to get large luggage up the stairs. The hide-a-bed would be much more comfortable if the plastic mattress protector could be removed when adults were sleeping on it as it was loud(crackling) and made you sweat. The location was perfect.

Unit was very clean. We actually got moved to another unit due to some construction going on, but the one we stayed in was very nice with modern finishes and well decorated. Location can't be beat - all units in the complex have fantastic views of the ocean and front on a great sandy beach that stretches for miles and is not very crowded at all. Centrally located to all that Maui has to offer but is a pretty quiet area. There is a bit of traffic noise from the nearby highway but it wasn't bothersome to us. We would highly recommend it!!

My sister and I stayed here for a week long sisters trip. We loved this condo. The view is amazing, check in was easy and staff super friendly. The grounds are beautiful and very well kept. The unit itself was clean (despite some ants 🐜) and had everything we needed plus more. The kitchen comes with anything you could need. The location itself was a tad far from all the activities we did but we didn't mind because it's a quiet peaceful location. We took the bus alot and the stop is just a 2 minute walk down the street. If you want to be in the middle of the action Lahaina might be more your style but if you are looking for a beautiful, quiet place with amazing views, this place is for you!!!

A lot of taxes, service charges and extras made this property very expensive. Area was beautiful and well kept. Condo was a little dated.
