We had an amazing stay! You cannot beat this location. Falling asleep and waking up to the sounds of the waves crashing right outside our patio was magical. The mattresses on both beds are super comfy. The King bed was literally the most comfy bed I have ever slept in. The kitchen was fully stocked with cookware and basic ingredients like salt, pepper, etc. There are a lot of mirrors but they kind of pulled the outside scenery in! I was told that the tiles in the bathroom ceiling are supposed to be fixed soon. The beach is literally steps away. There were a couple of sea turtles that just hung out in the area, we could see them from our patio and were lucky enough to accidentally swim with one. Bring your snorkel! Within walking distance was the boardwalk where vendors would set up each day, a food truck heaven which was amazing when we just wanted a quick bite, Ohana bakery where you must try the cinnamon rolls (but mentally prepare yourself for a long line), the Maui Fish Market where the seafood is so fresh it doesn't even smell fishy. The property was great! The pool was well maintained, they have a great grilling area (perfect for cooking up your treasures you got from the fish market), plenty of parking. This particular unit is conveniently located close to the parking lot so there is easy access with a ramp just outside. But don't worry, the crashing waves drowned out any potential parking lot sounds. Bree the property manager was wonderful to work with!

We enjoyed the Maui Kai overall and have stayed in this ground floor unit before with very positive experiences. This time we ran into frustrating issues with the AC leaking through the bathroom fan. We reported it right away to the emergency contacts when we noticed the water all over the floor. It took a couple of days to hear back from property management. Unfortunately the issue wasn’t resolved, we went without AC for 3-4 days. The dripping never stopped and would get us wet whenever we had to use the toilet. Then the ceiling tiles became heavily saturated and crashed down while we were sleeping. We did our best to clean up the mess it made and proceeded to check out. This makes us hesitant to stay in this particular unit again.

We really enjoyed our stay here. Sitting on the Lanai and listening to the pounding waves was amazing. It’s close to everything including the boardwalk down to Dukes and beyond.The bed was very comfortable however the pillows were meh so went to Costco and bought our own.Bree , our contact person, was amazing and alway responded in a timely manner .The only reason I did not give a 5 star rating overall is because the bathroom ceiling is in dire need of new tiles! Every time we went in we feared it would cave in on us! I’m surprised that it hasn’t been fixed because it would not be that expensive to swap out the tile ceilings.Overall a lovely experience.

We’ve stayed at the property several times and love being just feet back from the ocean. This particular accommodation is great. Bed is comfortable and room has most if not all what you’d expect. It’s our first time staying on the ground floor at this property. Some reviewers commented on the mirrors but the space is very nice and comfortable!

Maui has always been a great island to visit. Since our first visit in 1974. Our accommodations at the Maui Kai were great!

This was a beautiful condo located as close to the water as you can get! We woke up each morning to the sound of the ocean and the whales jumping, diving and flapping their fins playfully. Bring binoculars as they are a ways out, but you can still see them. Would strongly recommend a whale watching trip. The condo was clean, roomy and well equipped.

This is a nice property. The location is excellent. The screened in lanai is perfect: we saw whales and turtles. It was clean. It is smaller than it appears in the pictures. The mattresses on both beds are desperately in need of replacement: one can feel each spring on the sofa bed mattress.

Mai Kai is a beautiful location. Communication with property management check in procedures were great. A while after checking in our key card quit working. Maintenance was there to fix it promptly. We needed a toilet plunger during our visit. That was delivered as well. A family of 3 was provided 1 bath towel each for 7 days. I requested more towels fair would have been a towel each every other day, which would have been 3 each. Property management did have 1 more each dropped
off by housekeeping, so a total of 2 each for the 7 day trip. The floors were dirty sandy upon arrival. The pull out is not the most comfortable. Lots of great things in the closet to be used while visiting. Snorkeling gear, portable cooler, ice packs in the freezer, boogie boards, sunscreen, pool towels, to name a few. Overall we had a wonderful trip it’s very hard to not have a blast while in Maui.

This was our first family vacation. The unit was amazing in location to ocean. The pictures don’t do it justice. The beach to the right of the property has some of the best snorkeling in the area. Would definitely stay again!🤙🏾

Bree was good at helping solve any issues. There was only one key, but that was ok for us since we were always together.

We've stayed in this resort before, although a different condo. It is so perfect overlooking the ocean and a short walk to the Kaanapali walkway. Beautiful sandy beach steps away and a delightful pool. The apartment was clean and comfortable.
