For our first visit to Maui, this condo couldn’t have been in a better location, central to everything, comfortable beds, and set up just right. Super responsive host was a plus!

Overall, a good experience. Thanks for your prompt communication and straightforward check-in process.
A couple of things to note on the cleanliness front:
1. The entire apartment smelled strongly of marijuana, so a good air out and air filtering is in order.
2. There were a lot of dust bunnies under both beds that would easily be fixed with a good vacuum and occasional mop.
3. The king bed bath had mold growing in the water jet holes in the bathtub, and the drain stopper was similarly very moldy.
4. The soap dispenser in the king bed bath was empty.
5. There were very few spare bath and hand towels, and only one face towel that was clearly a rag.
6. Both AC units in the bedrooms likely need maintenance as the volume was not only loud but there was also quite a bit of rattling.
Thanks for letting us stay.

Great property. I would stay here again and recommend family and friends. Kitchen was fully stocked and the place was clean. They also had beach essentials and bags to carry things to the beach.

My family and I recently had the pleasure of staying at Joe and De's property. Overall, it was a great experience. The listing accurately portrayed the property, and we were delighted to find that it lived up to our expectations.
De, the host, was incredibly responsive and attentive. The neighborhood surrounding the property was lovely, providing a peaceful and pleasant environment for our vacation. One of the highlights of the location was its proximity to the beach, where we witnessed some beautiful sunsets.
However, there were a couple of issues that slightly marred our stay. The pre-arrival steps felt a little all over the places. We were required to fill out PDF forms and communicate via both the VRBO app and text messages with our rental car, room set up preferences..etc, which made it a bit confusing and time-consuming. It would be beneficial if there was a streamlined process that allowed for a smoother experience, possibly through a comprehensive pre-arrival survey. Additionally, while the property was generally clean, there were a few areas that could benefit from some updates.
Despite these minor hiccups, I want to emphasize that our stay at this listing was thoroughly enjoyable, and my family had a great time. I would still highly recommend it to anyone seeking an affordable and pleasant stay.

Great location close to beaches and great places to eat. Toiletries provided, which is so nice! There was even reef safe sunscreen (that might have been left by a previous renter). Thank you!

So happy we found this spot. The location was awesome with a mere 6 minute walk to the local beach Kamaole 1, which has a bathroom and showers. There's a mini mart across the street from that and restaurants all within walking distance.
Having 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms really made a HUGE difference in the quality of our stay. Yes we could've gotten by sharing a bathroom and had a pullout sleeper couch. But this was MUCH better. My parents had their privacy and I had mine. My husband came out for 4 nights out of our 10 night stay and it was really nice to all have our own space. The lanai (balcony) in this condo actually has a beautiful partial view of Haleakala volcano and my dad really enjoyed siting out there every morning watching the sun rise over the mountain.
Mom and me really loved hitting the hot tub every night. Everyone who lives in the complex or is renting is very social and friendly so the hot tub was a fun social scene for us.
The place was clean and comfortable and we REALLY appreciated the various extras that simplified our stay. For instance there is already beach chairs, umbrellas, etc, ice packs, coolers, some spices in the cabinets. They really have thought of everything.
The only small drawback which will matter for some more than others is if you plan on cooking a lot this is really only a 1 person at a time kitchen. We cooked about 80-90% of our meals and it definitely was comedic at times!! Lol
It was certainly manageable and worth it foe all the other great things about the place. But if that's super important to you then take that into consideration. But I'd definitely stay there again if given the opportunity.
Joe and De and the property manager Jennifer all replied within moments ant time I reached out and were ready to help answer any questions or concerns and we appreciated that very much.
Other great things is it's only 20 minutes from Maalaea Harbor where a lot of whale boat depart from, 30 minutes from Kahului if you want to go to Costco for shopping. 20 minutes from Makena Beach and thr southern beaches and about 40 to Lahaina. Such a great location. Very happy with our stay.
And FYI it is very safe to walk around the property (for anyone with disabilities or small children), everything is paved and clear. There's a shopping cart to bring up all your luggage and elevators so don't struggle with the stairs!
Would stay again. Thank you to Joe and De. Hope to book again next year!
Mahalo!

Joe and De have a lovely and super comfortable condo in a perfect location. They provided lots of information ahead of our trip and we could feel that they wanted us to love Maui as much as they do. The kitchen had everything we needed and we really appreciated that they provided gear for the beach. The beds were super comfy and we all slept great there. Thank you for a great stay!

This condo in Kihei is in a great location, the beach is across the street, and walking distance to places to eat. ABC store is down the street. The condo was cleaned, had lots of amenities. Communication with Joe was quick and easy. We would stay there again.

The unit had everything that we needed for our stay, and everything was in perfect working order. At night the complex is fairly quiet, and the common areas are patrolled and well-maintained. There is a construction project next door, which could be annoying if you wanted to sleep in. We are early risers, so it was not a problem.

Nice two bedroom condo. Clean with lots of beach/vacation amenities (beach bag, chairs, coolers, boogie boards, Maui Revealed guide book) to make beach vacation easy and fun. We had the second room configured with 2 twins for our kids. Good location in center of strip of Kihei. Small deck faces parking lot away from beach, but the beach is a short walk across the street, making it easy for dinner sunsets. Joe and De are responsive and helpful! Highly recommend!

Great rental property if you’re looking for something that’s walking distance to the beach and restaurants. The home is equipped with all the things you need to spend the day on the beach (which we wish we took advantage of more). Joe and De are also super helpful and responsive. They answered all my questions and even gave us recommendations in the area. The only negative thing I can say is that there was road construction going on as we turned into the complex, which caused a little congestion at times. Otherwise, definitely recommend!

We had a great time at the property. We really like that it was within walking distance of grocery stores, restaurants, surfing, and beaches. When we stayed in Kihei previously we had to drive almost everywhere, this time we are able to mostly walk. The apartment was good, clean, and worked well. It was a little smaller than we had anticipated, but ended up working out very well - it was nice having bogie boards, beach chairs, and snorkel equipment available. We would stay there again.

Clean, homey, and well-equipped, including plenty of beach towels, chairs, coolers, and even boogie boards. Plenty of peace and quiet since it’s at the back of the condo. Convenient, well-lit parking. Close to shopping and restaurants, and right across the street from two great beaches, including Charley Young Beach.

The location was perfect, just a five minute walk from the Charley Young beach. There are many other beaches around, but we really liked this one. The on-site pool is nice and warm with a hot tub. The owners had everything we needed for the beach - chairs, boogie boards, and beach toys. There were 6 of us staying together - 4 adults and two kids, 9 & 12. I was nervous the place would feel small but it was perfectly fine. In general, we thought Kihei was a great central location. My husband and I brought our bikes and were about to do some easy rides right from the condo. We also biked up Haleakala from Kula lodge - that’s quite the climb. I’d highly recommend this condo.

The owners of the condo are very interactive and will help you every step of the way. The booking process and directions for checking in and out were very easy to follow. The location was perfect! The place is centrally located in Kihei and is very close to shops and the grocery store. The actual condo is very accessible from the dedicated parking spots and the 2nd floor made it very convenient. The condo fit our family of 4 perfectly. The fans and a/c in the rooms cooled down the condo without any issues. The supply closet/beach gear stash was well stocked and had everything you would need for an all day at the beach. Overall it was a great experience and would stay there again.

Clean. Very responsive managers. Easy checkin. Beautiful beach across the street. Only thing we weren’t quite comfortable as I’m a germa phobe is if the dishes and towels, although very clean looking, were if they were sanitized in dishwasher and towels washed. wish there was a note that they were indeed put in dishwasher and towels properly washed. No way to tell. But overall a great experience!

We had a fantastic stay in this condo. It was in a great location - across the street from a great beach and within walking distance to everything. The kitchen is well equipped (only thing we couldn't find was a kettle for us tea drinkers) with everything needed and there are beach chairs, boogie boards, sand toys and even a cooler. We would recommend this unit to friends.

Joe and De are absolutely wonderful! They were warm, responsive, and considerate! The place was quiet, comfortable, roomy, clean, and has everything you need for a vacation. The kitchen was also well stocked. The neighborhood was beautiful and conveniently located right next to one of the best beaches! The most important thing is Joe and De are among the nicest hosts/hostesses that we've encountered!

This property is located in an ideal location for all things fun! The condo was comfortable, clean and roomy enough for each of us to spread out in. There was not a single thing that we needed that was not provided including snorkel gear and beach toys! We enjoyed our stay here so much and would recommend it to anyone, especially families who would benefit from full kitchens and laundry facilities.

The condo was just as described, quiet and clean, and we found everything we needed. A very nice beach is just across the street and if you get lucky, you'll see some turtles diving under you while you are snorkeling (which was my personal highlight). It's also a good starting point if you want to discover other parts of the island. The owners were very helpful after we forgot something in the condo.
The only thing annoying was the smoking ban in the residential complex (except for one little spot) and even on the lanai.

We loved our stay at this condo in Kihei. The condo was very clean. We were grateful for the air mattresses. We had our four kids with us, and it was nice for them to have their own place to sleep. There were plenty of beach towels and the washer and dryer was so helpful. We especially loved having the cooler, the great beach chairs, and the boogie boards. We had our own snorkel gear, but there were some sets available at the condo too. We thought the HOA rules of nothing on the lanai and only 4 at the pool were a little ridiculous, but that is not the owner's fault.
We drove to the beaches. You could have walked to one, but not the nicest. We loved the close access to Wailea. That was beautiful. Our favorite beaches were Wailea Beach and Po'olenalena Beach. Shops at Wailea were also fun.
The condo was also in a great location to get to the marina where we went a couple of times. Also, not too far from Lahaina.
We loved many of the restaurants in Kihei. There is a great variety there. Ululani's Hawaiian Shave Ice was for sure the best! Amazing! We loved Coconuts Fish Cafe, Cafe o Lei, Sansei sushi, Maui tacos and Round Table Pizza.
I would definately recommend this condo if you are not sure what area to stay. It was easy access north or south especially for the price!

Lowkey and very pleasant accommodations, true to description. Nearest beach is across the street. Many other beaches a short walk or drive away. Walk to grocery store , restaurants, coffee. Everything you need for the beach is provided. Utensils and kitchen drawers could have been cleaner. It would have been nice to have laundry washing detergent provided, as well as bath soap and shampoo in both bathrooms.

Had electrical issues which took almost half our stay to figure out. Needless to say we paid for amenities that we couldnt fully utilize. If you have issues you have to deal with the contractor as no follow up what so ever with property manager or owner. Must say we have been to Maui 5 times and this was the worst property we stayed in. Also, if you have 4 grown up adults, it is very small may be OK with small kids.

This condo was perfect for our needs. My parents, my wife and I went to Maui for some fun and relaxation. The condo is located on an amazing beach. Everything one would need for the beach is available in the condo. The best part however are the owners. They are very patient and available. They made our vacation special. Thanks Joe & Dee.

Excellent location, excellent renters, condo was in great condition, Great price! Will return! There were towels, chairs, snorkel gear and other necessities in the condo to use which saved us a lot of money. Renters were very communicative.

We were five -- parents, two children and a friend, and enjoyed our stay very much. Our friend said the inflatable bed was comfortable for him, and the children liked their twin beds (our daughter says it was a little hard). The beach umbrella, cooler, chairs, snorkels, masks, and boogie boards provided were great! The owners' thoughtfulness was apparent everywhere; clearly every effort was being made to anticipate our needs. I enjoyed the location at the back of the condominium building -- it had fine views mauka and lots of birds singing in the grass underneath the lanai (it is on the second floor). The distance from the road made it very quiet. The location is good, across the road from a beautiful beach park and near Kihei's shopping centers. I highly recommend this unit.

Thank you for a comfortable, quiet and relaxing stay! Bed was comfy, kitchen is well stocked, and walk in shower is perfect for my husband to get in easily and safely. It was wonderful to have the choice of using the elevator or the stairs. Coffee on the lanai in the morning to watch the sun and clouds on Haleakala was truly relaxing. Walking on the beach in the early morning has been a special treat. I have enjoyed the short walk to the beach and the safe lighted crossing. I was actually surprised how close we are to the wonderful beach! We wish we had our granddaughters with us to enjoy the beach chairs, umbrella and boogie boards you have available to guests. We chose to sleep in the queen bedroom because of easy access to the walk-in shower, but the king/twin bedroom was very tempting. Again, our granddaughters would have loved the spa tub! Can you tell, the only thing missing was our granddaughters? Fabulous stay! We can’t wait to return one day soon!
