The pre trip communication was terrific. Everything was what we expected. Only issue was that we were unable to get the dishwasher to work.

We planned a last minute trip to Maui and searched the website until we found this unit which appears to put a ✔️next to all our items on our wish list. Every time I reached out to the property manager Larry, he was very prompt in getting back with me. The check in and check out directions were explained perfectly! Would definitely stay again. Thanks for a very enjoyable experience 🤩

We had a great time during our stay at this condo. The location was perfect. Our daughter enjoyed the large grass lawn. Beach in walking distance is great. I enjoyed morning runs along the beach path.

Very good location. Wasn’t as clean as I’d hoped. Needed more attention to detail. Surfside is top notch! Out of our 3 units, this was the only one that disappointed. Needs updating.

This little rental was the perfect touchdown each day. After watching the sunrise & day trip boats leave Maalaea, we spent mornings on nearby beach, cleaned up for lunch & afternoons at the pool - steps away from the lanai. Unit is clean and had everything we needed. No AC but fans helped. We’d stay here again!

The set up here was great. Not only did everything go smooth but also everyone we met at the condo (mostly condo owners since it was off season) was so welcoming. The pool set up a few yards away, it was fantastic and the a beach is just around the corner with a oceans view! If we get the chance to go back we will stay here again!!!

Would definitely rent again!

My husband and I had an amazing stay for our 27th wedding anniversary! The property was perfect! Location location location! You walk right out the slider to the lawn and the ocean view. Sunsets every night on the patio! The pool area is newly redone with great barbecues and tables. It’s cleaned every morning! Ken the president was on site that week and made us feel right at home. He was full of great day trip and dining ideas. The walk down the long sandy beach was feet away! Our condo was clean & very well stocked for all our needs. Kihei, just a few miles away, had lots of fun restaurants, bars and shopping. We never wanted to leave and will definitely be back!

We absolutely loved staying at this property. The view was fabulous. Right on the water & pool, in front of an excellent snorkeling location. Saw lots of turtles here! Very nice staff on location. Would definitely return.

The property was spectacular and we really enjoyed the stay. The owner has not been very easy to work with on the other hand and I don't think I will book one of his units in the future as a result. As our vacation approached, we realized we needed to leave Maui one day early and I asked for a reimbursement for that one night. He said he would refund it if they were able to rent it to someone else but that would be unlikely. I accepted, thanked him and was appreciative he would at least try to find someone to take that evening. We arrived for the stay and on Day 3 I believe it was, our lower level unit flooded and we woke up to standing sewer water on the floor. They needed to relocate us and the only other unit available was Larry's private unit. It was absolutely gorgeous however, traveling alone with two young children, the lower unit that had a grass lawn out the front door and the pool right next to it was ideal. We had no choice but to move which was fine but I did ask for some sort of reimbursement for the inconvenience. The owner said the quality of the new unit should make up for any inconvenience which seemed to me an arrogant response. Furthermore, I was advised they only had the new unit available until Monday night and they'd have to figure something else out for me for Tuesday night. I reminded him that we needed to check out on Tuesday morning anyways and it seemed like a win-win to me. In my mind, the reimbursement of the Tuesday night stay was also justifiable since it worked out for both parties that they did not have a spot for us on that Tuesday night. It was obvious to me that the owner hadn't even tried to re-book that last night like he said he would. At this point in time, I have made 3 attempts at contacting the owner for the reimbursements and he will not respond to my messages. Although the location is wonderful, I would not recommend booking with Rosie Rentals but rather finding another unit that is available through Kihei Surfside website.

Besides beings just as advertised, we sat on the lanai at sunset which martinis and aaahs. In the morning we walked out of 104 and 30 feet later we were headed down the beach all the way to the Four Seasons for breakfast. We SUP down the coast to Wailea and back as well. Thank you Larry, great time and wonderful Christmas and New Years memories for both Debbie and I. Todd and Debbie Valentine

It doesn't get better than this... spacious, well-equipped, gorgeous views of the ocean and sunset! We enjoyed being steps from the heated pool, and just a few more steps to Keawakapu Beach, which is a long stretch of sandy beach with gentle waves-- it is sheltered from the winds by the Mana Kai and the Kihei Surfside. From the lanai of the condo, you can walk across the well manicured, expansive lawn to access a beach trail leading to the Kamaole Beaches, and the Kihei boatramp, where many molokini snorkel tours depart from. Location is very central to shopping, restaurants, beautiful beaches... but it's so relaxing just sitting on your own lanai, watching sunsets and people, you may not want to go anywhere. The kitchen is great for cooking, every gadget you need is provided. We made our own pina coladas! There are beach towels and extra linens. Having a half-bath is a great perk as well. Overall, this is an excellent condo for a small family or close friends. Great communication with management, easy check-in and check-out, beautiful location! Highly recommended.

We were so grateful to be able to stay in this wonderful property. It was a short stay but perfect. Oh, and the view was spectacular !!

Loved everything except that the sleeper sofa was uncomfortable. I suggest a latex topper or new mattress and the boards did help. Also location wise in in the building it has many people walking right by at the sides and front. No privacy and some noise at night by clueless people.

Location can’t be beat. Steps from ocean, beautiful view, quiet property. We had a wonderful stay and hope to be back someday.

This property is wonderful, just like the pictures; no surprises! Beach, pool, snorkeling all right out your lanai. First time renting a ground floor unit and we loved it! The views can not be beat! Cocktails watching the sunset, grilling every evening and playing bocce ball on the beautiful lawn. Just the vacation we were looking for. Relaxing! This condo building is centrally located to restaurants, grocery stores and site seeing. This is a no A/C building, but with the fans and trade winds it was not uncomfortable. We will definitely be back! From experience, don’t wear your Maui Jim’s in the ocean! 😎

Great location with amazing views every single day. Well-appointed condo with all kitchen & beach items needed. Easy access into condo and parking was very simple. Very short walk from car to condo. Plenty of space for 2 adults with 4 suitcases and lots of scuba gear. Nice patio for evenings when sun is down. Easy access to pool. Easy access for laundry (though I wish laundry room didn't close at 8AM but that is rule of property itself). The main thing that we hard great difficulty with was NO A/C in condo at all which explains why there were 5 fans available to plug in. We used them every night in the bedroom. It was miserably hot in the evenings and hard to sleep. I should have checked listing more carefully to see that A/C was not listed. You need to keep front shades down during the day while you're gone. Otherwise, you come back to an oven. It was a very fun week but the only places we could cool down were the ocean, indoor restaurants or our car. Perhaps in January it could be more tolerable but not for us. After being in the ocean and outdoors all day, we prefer to return to a cool inside. But, the views are unbeatable!

This condo was clean, comfortable, and as described. The location is perfect, with a great view of the ocean and close to a gorgeous beach for playing in the waves and walking in the sand! Also a great location to base your Maui trip, as you can quickly get around the island and see everything Maui has to offer!

I was nervous about being on the ground floor near the pool, but that wasn't an issue at all. The pool closes before bedtime and people are very respectful and quiet. The ability to walk directly into the lawn was fabulous.
