This condo served as the base of operations for the third leg of our trip, back on Maui after several days over on the Big Island. Everything was neat and tidy and the communication with Kate prior and during the trip was great. The unit had everything that we needed. It was wonderful being right by the ocean. I think it is important that you know yourself, your family and what you want. It's not the Four Seasons and it doesn't try to be-it's a solid condo rental right on the ocean, up by the Maalaea Harbor and it was perfect for what we wanted (easy access to Wailuku and the island of Lana'i). We would definitely stay again. While not an issue for us, I do want to note two things for others. First, the front bedroom does not have AC so we used a fan(provided) to pull in air from the living room. And second, as noted by others and I think in the listing-there is no beach directly in front of the unit, you just have to go a few yards down. Thank you Kate.

Kate was Awesome and it’s a Great Location!Check in was easy and we were given a late checkout time due to some unforeseen circumstances. (Tsunami ) and was very beneficial for us as our flight changed due to this! Thanks Again to Kate and her staff! Mahalo

Amazing view! Super clean! Well stocked! Has everything you need! The view is so beautiful and we saw several turtles off the balcony. Wonderful beds and linens. This condo is very well stocked with everything you need beach chairs, umbrella, boogie board, snorkel equipment. We loved the beach next to the complex, and the pool was fantastic. This location is centrally located, and makes a great starting point for everything to see in Maui. The host Kate was super kind and gave us several tips, she also checked in with us to make sure everything was good. 10000% would book this again!!

Property was exactly as advertised. Extremely clean, and very close to the ocean and beach. Centrally located in a quiet neighborhood. We will recommend to any of our friends travelling to Maui, and would stay again if we ever go back.

Our vacation in Maui was great. The condo was wonderful. The view from the balcony was incredible. We had everything we needed. Everything was well labeled and easy to find. It was very clean. The beach was just a short walk away and was everything I had anticipated when imagining a beachfront condo. We saw monk seals and turtles from our deck. The harbor access was wonderful. We were so close to nice restaurants and stores. The fishing excursion we went on was a short five minute drive to the boat. Kate was a great hostess and gave us all the information we needed to have a great stay. If I ever returned to Maui, I will definitely contact her again. Once again, thank you for everything

We couldn't have been happier with our stay! The ease of check-in, parking and check-out took a lot of stress out of a first time VRBO rental experience! Kate kept in touch from the moment I made the reservation with tips and suggestions for the area and to make sure we were taken care of. The location was perfect for our home base. All the extra thoughtful touches, such as the beach accessories and binoculars were great. The unit was lovey and comfortable.10/10 all around! We look forward to coming back for another adventure!

Our first trip to Maui was beyond anything we could have imagined, and this condo only improved the experience. It is beautifully decorated and well stocked. The location is quiet and away from the hustle and bustle of the larger oceanside towns on Maui. I can't recommend this condo enough and hope to stay here again on our next visit.

Location was outstanding with direct access to miles of pristine beach - great for morning walks! The lanai felt private and provided the most beautiful and serene view of the ocean. It’s truly located right above the beach and was so peaceful to hear the waves. There’s good snorkeling in the rocks right in front. The condo is very clean and tidy, with modern updates to the kitchen and bathrooms. Kitchen is well stocked and the community grill was perfect for easy dinners. There are plenty of beach towels and chairs/umbrella. Above all, Kate provided exceptional service with excellent communication and follow through to ensure her guests have a wonderful experience in her inviting home. I was so happy I chose to stay here. I highly recommend!

Beautiful views, great location, nice place. I only gave it four stars, you can’t access the beach anymore from the resort, because of storm damage. You have to walk two resorts down and enter from the park. Otherwise my sisters and I had a great time.

We loved every moment of the stay, except getting caught in a downpour in Hana! The central location was perfect for every direction we went whether it was south for a luau, East for Hana, upcountry for Haleakala or west for a wonderful dinner at Mala tavern. We watched whales everyday from the lanai and saw green turtles near the seawall every afternoon. We took advantage of the pool most days and had no issues finding a chaise to use. The condo is totally stocked with everything we needed and we loved being able to do laundry so we could just bring a carry on. We had a few questions during the trip and Kate was very swift to answer. Great host experience. I appreciated all of the information Kate communicated before the trip. It’s a lovely place and we hope to return very soon! Mahalo for everything!

This was a fully stocked condo so that only food I’d cook myself was needed. Great views, noisy surf but it’s the ocean! Terrific beds, bath, and decent if not anything parking. Cool pool and short distance to the rest of Maui, sans Lahaina. Don’t attempt to go up there. Not ready to receive visitors despite what Gov Green says.

We are former owners of another unit in Kanai A Nalu. The location of theses condos is the best in all of Maui. They are central to nearly everything! This unit is extremely well maintained. It's very clean and supplied with anything you might require. The owner, Kate, is a very pro-active communicator. The on-site orientation notebook explains everything! The views...well, those are life changing! Kate's unit is amazing!

Our family enjoyed our stay in this beautiful condo with amazing views. The condo is fully stocked with all the necessities, including a great selection of items for the beach. We loved listening to the waves from the balcony, and visiting the beach right next to the property. The beds and pillows were extremely comfortable. Kate provided all the details needed to make checking in and out a breeze. She also went above and beyond to make sure we were safe, since the fires broke out during our stay. Highly recommend this condo if you’re looking to visit Maui, you won’t be disappointed.

This was our first time in Maui. This property is a central location to adventure from in all directions. The view from the balcony was amazing and we loved waking up and returning to it each day. The property owner was very communicative throughout the booking and stay process, ensuring everything was ok. The unit was spotless and had everything we needed to make the trip easy.

This property was perfect for our family, including my 2 teenage boys! It was very comfortable and roomy! The second bedroom was set up for them and the unit was stocked with everything we needed (beach towels, a cooler, beach chairs, etc)! Kate was such a gracious host and has really thought of everything! She was a great communicator and the check in / out process was super easy! The location is perfect, too! It was about 30 minutes from Wailea or Lahaina! Oh, and the view is amazing from the balcony!!!!!

Co do also we’ll stocked with toilet paper & necessities. We didn’t need to buy any paper towel, silverware, t.p, ect.

Great location with beach access. Both beds are huge and make for a good nights rest. Kitchen is fully stocked with everything most cooks will need. Comes with 4 beach chairs,2 boogie boards, and snorkle equipment. Central location for easy access around the island. They have everything you will need down to q-tips in the bathroom to clean the ocean water out of your ears! Perfect place to stay and we will be back for sure!

We had a great stay at Kate's condominium at Maui. It is centrally located with easy access to Airport, Road to Hana, Kihei and Lahaina. The condo had all the required amenities plus extra that you don't find at other places. The instructions were very well detailed and documented that made it very easy for us to use the amenities. We got to see lot of whales from the lanai in the morning. I would definitely stay here again in future.

The condo was perfect! Everything we needed was already there for us and the condo itself was beautiful and very clean! The view from the Lanai was to die for! Such a wonderful place to start and end every day. We truly loved watching what we felt were our very own sea turtles as they would frolic in the surf!

Our family stayed in this waterfront Maalaea condo as a base for numerous wedding activities around the island. The location was perfect for us; it was quiet and tranquil and convenient to everything. We enjoyed long walks on the beach at low tide, the trade winds during the day, and listening to the waves crash against the sea wall at night. Views of Haleakala were icing on the cake. The host is very thorough in her communications, and the condo is very well maintained and stocked. Should we ever return to Maui, she will be my first contact! We would recommend you stay here away from the crowds and resorts if you are so inclined.



October 2022
Perfect place. Location is great. Everything you need to have a fabulous trip. Clean, spacious, beautiful!! We are definitely going back!

We just returned from a wonderful week in Maui! Kate is the best host -- she sent me everything I needed for to prepare for the trip (including grocery store info, etc) and is so responsive to emails. The property itself was perfect for our family of four. The condo is fully equipped with everything you could need for your stay. We walked in and the place was spotless -- but the best part is the view! Right in front of you is the water and palm trees. We spent plenty of time on the lanai just taking in the sounds of the water. The property is located in a quieter part of Maui near the aquarium, and we enjoyed being outside of the more touristy areas like Kihei and Lahaina. We went to those places to eat/sightsee, and then came back to our peaceful retreat. There are so many beaches in Maui, but my kids just wanted to spend time on Sugar Beach (right outside), which is not crowded and has plenty of good waves. We had a truly wonderful vacation and wouldn't hesitate to return to this property. Thank you, Kate!

Our family of four thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The owner has impeccably decorated the space so that whomever stays is extremely comfortable. The condo itself is beautifully looking out at the ocean, so much you can feel the sea spray mist while sitting on the balcony . Such a glorious sight! There was not one item that had to be purchased other than food from the grocery store. The condo was efficiently stocked and organized with high end appliances, utensils and commonly needed supplies. There were coolers, ice packs, beach gear (chairs, mats, boogie boards and snorkeling sets). We love everything about this condo and already planning to stay here the next we’re in Maui! Thank you so much for the hospitality! Mahalo

The condo was lovely and well appointed. The views and sound of the ocean right off the patio was so great! They had everything we needed to enjoy our week.

We had an amazing time staying at this rental property. It is right off the beach which allows quick access to a local beach spot. There are several food spots and a marina within walking distance. This rental is within a 30 minute drive to most of the key locations across the island which is very convenient. The property had all the amenities we needed on the complex and within the rental unit. The balcony view was perfect every morning to watch the sunrise and at evenings for the sunset. The host is super responsive and helpful! Overall, great experience staying here!!!

This property is exactly how it is described and pictured in the listing. Very well maintained and ocean front, you are literally steps from the beach. Also location is ideal for going to Kihei, Lahaina or Kahului - all about 15 or 20 mins away. Kate was a great host !

We had the absolute best time at this condo.. Karen made sure everything was in top shape upon our arrival. The view is spectacular the pic does not do it justice. The only suggestion would be to have a tv in the guest suite and more space in the guest closet as it is full of beach items. Otherwise it’s perfect! Mahalo and we hope to return k e day!

This unit has been ones of the best and comfortable units that I have stayed. Waking up with the sounds of the ocean, swimming with the turtles, watching the sun's reflection on Haleakala were some of our daily routines. The unit was comfortably situated in between two main areas. We were also close to the airport, Maui Plantation, Kihei, Lahaina, Weilea. The closest market we found was Foodland, but Safeway is also close by. We also used the BBQ downstairs many nights and ate around the manicured lawn and the coconut trees. We didn't have to use the AC as majority of the nights the temperature was on the cooler side but we used the fans almost all the time. The kitchen is fully equipped, even many unused products from the previous guests. You can't go wrong with this unit. Highly recommended.

Note: Vacancy calendar is approximate. Visit the owner/manager's reservation site to verify your dates.
