Look no further for a perfect Honeymoon or Anniversary get-away, whether it's your first or your 50th!
This location has some of the most pristine and lightly visited beaches on the island – it’s just a short 3 to 4 minute walk to Sugar Beach. 5 miles of beautiful, sandy, secluded beach. Or, walk directly to a small hidden beach right in front of the complex.
This is the best kept secret on Maui!
Our condo is direct oceanfront! 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. We also have a timer controlled A/C just in case the cross breeze in the unit isn't enough for you. There are ceiling fans in every room as well.

From the lanai, gaze out and watch the sunrise over Haleakala (House of the Sun), the long dormant 10,000 foot volcano. Watch green sea turtles bobbing up for air and rolling in the surf, even sunning themselves on the beach. In the winter months (Nov-April) you will have a front row seat to breaching whales as they come back to the islands to give birth and nurse their young in the warm Hawaiian waters. In the summer months during a good south swell, you can watch surfers on the legendary surf break “Freight Trains”, the world’s fastest surfable wave.

Beautifully landscaped grounds with a heated pool will make any stress you have brought with you melt away. Slip into to the pool and enjoy the ocean view while you relax in the Maui sun. This is also the only complex in Maalaea with a Jacuzzi.

The kitchen has stainless steel appliances and is fully equipped with cooking utensils, pots, pans, blender and all of the other essential supplies to comfortably enjoy cooking and eating in. (Even a Keurig for you coffee lovers!)There is also a great BBQ area oceanfront so you can enjoy the view while you cook.

Our Master Suite has a king-sized bed with a brand new mattress.

Our bathroom is beautifully tiled with a clean updated and stylish look. 100% cotton bath towels and hand towels are of course provided.

Enjoy a meal on the private lanai or just sit out and enjoy the view

A 5 minute walk 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, makes getting anywhere on the island easy. 15 minutes from the airport, a 5-minute drive south and you are in the long village of Kihei and a bit further, the resorts of Wailea. You couldn’t be in a better location to explore all Maui has to offer.

We have thought of everything to make your home away from home comfortable and inviting;

Condo was clean. The condo was a Great place to stay. Right on the ocean. Complex is quiet. Could always find a place at the pool. Enjoyed our stay. Will stay here again.

This was a very cute apartment and located in a great location! We loved the view of the ocean from the balcony! The power had went out for a couple hours during our stay one day. We were able to get in touch with the owners. They were quick to respond and was able to contact the property manager to assist. Turns out the whole street had lost power but the power company got it back on fairly quickly. No other issues! Would highly recommend!

We found this property to be perfect. Close to everything but in an area that was not busy. Sea turtles come up on the beach at night. The park at the end of the street gives you access to a great beach. The balcony view is outstanding. Gail was very responsive and helpful.

My wife and I stayed seven nights in this unit. The views of the bay were amazing. The location was quiet and pristine. The apartment was beautiful and well appointed. It provided a centralized location which allowed us to get a leisurely start each day and yet accomplish all we wanted to see and do. The only challenge was that the elevator went out several times while we were there. They were fairly prompt in fixing the problem, but it became a repeated issue over the time of our stay. We would definitely stay here again. My wife had several communications with Gail, and she was so helpful each and every time.

We had a great experience during our two week stay. Wonderful unit, super clean, owners provided detailed going and departure information. Fantastic ocean view. Watched whales everyday in the Bay. BBQ by the water. Nice pool and hot tub.Sea turtles by the beach. Short walk to marina for whale watching tours and an excellent Sea Aquarium. Two restaurants and a good pizza place at the marina complex. All in all, a great experience and highly recommend this VRBO.

Condo is lovely & the complex is quiet. Local Marina has a small market and casual restaurants. The location is perfect - 30 minutes to Wailea-Makena and 30 minutes to Kaanapali. If you like to get out & see Maui rather than see a resort, this is a good home base.

Perfectly located. The condo has everything you need for a great vacation. We loved sitting on the balcony and watching the sun rise. Thanks to our hosts for a wonderful vacation.

We love this area of Maui for its easy access to everything Maui has to offer, but the quiet off the beaten path vibe! This place was absolutely perfect for our needs (active couple in our 40’s). It had everything we needed for our stay, perfect amount of space, beautiful, clean, and super helpful caretakers of the property with loads of recommendations. Gail was fantastic and quickly responded to and resolved a minor need during our stay. We will definitely be back!

We truly enjoyed our stay at Maalaea Banyans. The location is incredible. The condo is newly refinished and updated and clean. The ocean view is hard to beat. We loved the seclusion and off-the-beaten-path location of this condo, especially as we visited other parts of the island that were so busy with tourists. The centrality of the condo on the island was perfect, giving us options to the North and the South within a relatively short drive. The General Store down the road has a great cafe. A walk on the beach is only a short stroll down the road. My wife is already trying to figure out when we can get the whole family to Maui. Gail and Steve are great hosts!

Property did not meet what we thought based on the pictures. It was small, difficult for two people to walk by each other. The building is older and has seen better days. Most importantly, no central a/c. Owner suggested opening the lanai and bedroom windows for a breeze. The jalosy windows in the bedroom were right by the head of the bed and opened to the main hallway. So you would be sleeping with your head 2 feet from someone walking outside, and since the windows need to be open for air flow, someone could look right in on you. The window a/c unit was on a timer so you would have to get up in the night to reset it if you wanted a/c during the night. View was nice from the lanai, but we actually only stayed an hour, forfeited our rental fee and went and stayed elsewhere.

Gail and Steve were great! From the time I booked they had open communication and made sure I had all the information I needed for my stay. The condo is updated with all the necessities, very clean and super cute. There is a Beautiful view of the ocean from the balcony. When we first arrived we walked down to the little private beach and there was a turtle snoozing on the shore! Lots of great beach spots near by. We went down to the pool and hot tub several times and we were the only ones down there each time. There was plenty of parking each night even when we returned late. Highly recommend!

Loved this condo! We had a great stay, this place is centralized on Maui which was awesome because we were equal distance to all the best places and tours. Close to Lahaina which is where we spent most of our dinners. Also close to the docks for our snorkeling tour. Great views and close access to the beach. Definitely a great place to enjoy the island!!

Perfect Maui spot! Super clean and amazing place to start any adventure. We felt it was the perfect central location to get to any resort or even the road to Hana! Coming from Oahu, it felt like everything we wanted to do was so close! Excellent amenities at the condo, really could not have been better! Thank you!

Mahalo to Gail and Steve for the privilege of staying in your condo. This condo is beautifully updated with quality items, right down to the utensils. This was such a treat to stay in a unit that has most of the comforts of home. It’s a fully stocked vacation home. The view is amazing and you can whale watch everyday on the comfortable lanai furniture. We enjoyed ourselves so much that we hope to book again next year. Mahalo and Aloha

This property is amazing and the hosts are great & have provided you with everything you could need. By far the nicest condo I’ve stayed at on Maui and I can’t wait to return. If you have young & loud kids you might want to rethink. Some of the other residents are crotchety old people who gave us a hard time about things that wouldn’t bother anyone normal with a functioning brain. Other than that, the property is perfect and I can’t reccomend it enough.

We rented four condo’s in this complex for a family vacation. This condo was by far the most well equipped. There was not one thing we needed. The experience was awesome. Will be looking at this unit again for future trips.

We very much enjoyed our stay in this condo. It was clean, comfortable and well-equipped. We loved sitting out on the balcony in the morning drinking coffee and watching the whales. The entire facility including the pool and whirlpool were well-maintained. Easy access to the beach down the road was great. We were not far from most locations on Maui including the airport. We highly recommend this condo for your stay!

This was a great condo to stay in! Wonderful view of the ocean and sound of the ocean waves at night! Quiet area to get away from the busy areas nearby, but close enough to drive to all main tourist areas to the north, south, and road to Hana!

The unit was well equipped with most anything you could possibly need. Very clean and modern. The bed was comfortable. The condo is perfect for those who want peace and quiet. The complex is on a quiet dead end street and only a short drive to many attractions, dining and shops. Sugar beach is just a short walk to the end of the street. There are a few shops and places to eat within walking distance, however they close early. Loved seeing the sea turtles out back. Be careful on the lanai as the air conditioner does leave a puddle of water. Wonderful place to stay.

Just as advertised! Host takes very good care of this property and has excellent trip advice available. heads up, Tradewinds Deli is currently being renovated so closed for a little bit, but other places within walking distance.

From the minute we walked through the door we were very happy, comfortable, and felt at home. I must rave on the bed it was beyond comfortable ( slept like mine at home) Steve and Gail has it set up so nice there wasn't a single item for cooking or or kitchen supplies that we needed. The grounds and pool and hot tub is well kept up. I am definitely recommending this place to all our family and friends having any interest in going to Maui

I booked this property for its location, my hopeful ability to watch whales from the balcony, and the beautiful vibe of the condo. My expectations were met or exceeded at all levels! We were fortunate to watch whales every morning and evening, and the provided binoculars were such a bonus. The condo was exceptionally comfortable for two people. The appliances are top-notch and allowed us to cook what meals we wanted very nicely. Every type of kitchen item needed was there, including Tupperware and mixing bowls. The bed was very, very comfortable, and I very much appreciated having a king-size bed. Opening the bedroom window and the sliding door on the balcony provided a perfect breeze to keep us cool at night. The location of the condo was also perfect for us and central to almost everything on the island. We walked into the Ma’alaea Harbor a few times for the restaurants, to the wonderful aquarium, and to go on our snorkeling trip, which was a huge bonus since the parking was limited. Overall we had a wonderful stay in this property, and would definitely book there again.

The view is stunning and beautiful but the condo itself had issues. The owner knew there was an electrical issue where if you use microwave, it trips the electrical breaker box. We were told that there would be an electrician in the unit to fix the electricity but he never showed up. We called the property manager to follow up on it, but she said she wasn't aware of a repair appointment and that we should unplug the microwave and move it to another outlet. That ended up not solving the issue so we had to reset the breakers every day. Another issue was with the fire alarm. Every 8 hours it would make a very loud high pitched sound. We called the property manager to see if it needed new batteries or what could help. She told us that sometimes it will make that noise if there is too much humidity and that we should either press the button every time it goes off or we could flip the circuit in the breaker box so it is disconnected from the electric. This unit clearly has electrical issues so there is no way I would disconnect the smoke alarm from the electric. So, every 8 hours we needed to reset the alarm. This was often at 4am. Very inconvenient. Another issue was the screen in the bedroom is completely warn and not securely fashioned to the window frame. Even if it is a nice windy day, you can't open the bedroom windows to get the great cross ventilation because it would let bugs in the unit. The air conditioner unit was inefficient, there is no way to aim the air vent to the couch and it is on a timer so you can't run it for more than a few hours. Hopefully the owners correct the electrical problems before they have more serious consequences.

Amazing 8 days in an amazing place. This isn't my first trip to Maui but Steve and Gail's condo is for sure the nicest one I've stayed in so far. It is clean, very well furnished and the kitchen is a dream. This condo has everything you will ever need to have a wonderful stay. The view is a killer - sunrise at the lanai,is something you will never forget and it's worth 6 stars. The communication with Gail and Steve was quick and always helpful. Steve and Gail

The property looked exactly like the pictures. It was clean and the view from the lanai was beautiful. We ate breakfast on the lanai every morning. The appliances were new. The washer/dryer was very convenient. Contact with the property managers was quick. Check in and out was easy. Very close to the harbor where plenty of snorkeling/ diving excursions leave from. Would definitely recommend.

Relaxing beautiful location with a view of the ocean. Condo was centrally located. We loved using the boogie boards, beach umbrella and coolers for our day trip.

This was an ideal location. Easy access to highways, tranquil views of the ocean and immaculate. We were provide everything we needed for cooking, beach fun, and even travel comfort while there. So thoughtful! The place was wonderful and we highly recommend it. If we were to return to Maui we would stay here again.



June 2021
This place was great!! Turtles right on the beach every afternoon. Room very clean and updated. Fully stocked kitchen. Beach chairs, body boards, sand toys, snorkel gear, beach towels are all provided. The grounds are quiet and low key. Beautiful views. The only draw back is that there is no AC in the bedroom, only a unit in the living room.. there are a couple of fans provided but not a crisp cool sleeping environment. But other than that, its a 10!

The unit was immaculate! Everything felt very clean and organized, the unit was stocked with plenty of dishware, cleaning supplies, and beach supplies. We used the chairs and beach towels and they were perfect. There were other supplies available as well for longer beach days and smaller kids to play with. The unit has A/C which felt great after a hot day in the sun. It is not central A/C so the cool air isn't evenly distributed throughout the entire unit, but we simply placed the provided (another plus) fans to relay the cool air to the bedroom which worked fine for us. Some nights get cool enough the A/C is not needed. The A/C does provide a puddle on the balcony but this was not an issue for us either. Neither of these are issues or reasons to not stay in this great unit. Parking is a huge plus. I'm not sure if I missed instructions on how to obtain your pass (I think the description said to visit the office downstairs), but it was pretty easy to figure out. There are empty passes on the front desk and you simply fill it out, hang one half in your car and leave the other half in that front office. There are no employees (or weren't when we were there) working the office, it's an honors system. There are also some books you can borrow for the beach as well. Communication with Gail was extremely easy, she is super responsive and very respectful. We were trying to figure out a day activity before our evening flight out and she was more than willing to help us (we went to Haleakala and explored a small town on the way back). Gail also politely checked on us during our stay. The view is amazing! We selected this unit for its proximity to that view and spent half our time at the unit on that balcony. It's the perfect peaceful spot to simply "get away". The surroundings were quiet, all other guests were respectful of the community rules...absolutely zero issues. We were there for a wedding and spent most of the time away from the unit but were very happy to return to this comfortable environment. We really enjoyed the peaceful early mornings with the view and quiet evenings. The unit was very comfortable and exceeded expectations. The hosts have clearly gone through the due diligence to ensure a comfortable stay, I would hands down stay here again and recommend my friends/family to do the same. Thank you to Gail for a wonderful stay in your home, we hope to see you again soon!

Loved the condos here. Mostly peaceful and can’t beat the view and the surrounding. The only drawback was during our stay we had 2 different smokers below us who’s smoke drift up to our patio and the same 2 different condos had loud people outside in the morning, when i was looking forward to sunrise quiet bliss. I’m thinking maybe something was said because the noise did not continue after initial times. As, it is hard to control everyone who may not realize on their first day about quiet hours ect. I would not hold this against facility. It is a beautiful place to stay and central to very direction, lahina, kihei, and even paia. Kind of in the middle to go any direction. This is a great choice if you like to be in a quieter location

We really enjoyed our stay! Gail is wonderful and has been so accommodating with all the crazy covid requirements over the last year. The condo was set up perfectly and we appreciated the beach items for us to use. The condo is beautifully decorated and had all we needed to stay very comfortable for the week of our stay. The location was perfect for us as we went all over the island and felt this condo was centrally located. We saw whales and turtles out from our view and couldn’t have wished for anything more (except more time). Thank you so much Gail for a wonderful stay!

The views were amazing. We loved seeing whales from the lanai. The condo was updated nicely and very modern. Having a washer/dryer in the unit was a game changer. The owners were easy to contact and work with :) I would only make 2 suggestions ~ a tv in the bedroom would be very nice as not both people want to watch the same thing or may just enjoy lounging late at night and watching tv. The patio furniture is new and very nice, but a bistro height isn’t comfortable for all ages :) or for long periods of time and I love to sit on the lanai!

I stayed there this past March for my 40th birthday. The condo was very updated, modern with amazing views of the ocean. We got to see whales play every morning from the patio of our condo. I would highly recommend staying here. I know we will be next year.
