The following executive summary is based on a comprehensive and impartial AI analysis of guest reviews. Keep in mind that all units are individually owned, and review scores among units can vary considerably.
Grand Champions Villas delivers a relaxed, residential Wailea experience with a prime location and resort-like grounds. Guests consistently praise the quiet, well‑kept complex set along the Wailea Blue Golf Course, many units with sunset and partial‑ocean views from the lanai. It’s an easy walk to The Shops at Wailea, Akamai Coffee, restaurants, and the coastal beach path; most beaches are a short drive and walkable for some (expect 15–25 minutes and hills). Two pools (one designated quiet/adult) and hot tubs, lush landscaping, and generally smooth, code-based check‑ins add to the low‑stress vibe, and many travelers return year after year, citing strong value versus beachfront hotels.
Inside, most condos are spacious, comfortable, and well equipped for longer stays: full kitchens (often well stocked for simple cooking), in‑unit laundry, reliable Wi‑Fi, and handy beach gear (chairs, towels, umbrellas, coolers, boogie boards). Many units have been nicely updated with modern baths and comfortable beds; others are simpler but still clean and functional. Families, couples, and golfers especially appreciate the space, quiet setting, and easy access to Wailea’s courses, shops, and beaches.
As with any individually owned condo resort, quality varies by unit. Recurring themes to note: some condos feel dated (carpets, furniture, or older TVs), and a few guests reported housekeeping oversights or minor maintenance issues that were typically resolved quickly. Window/wall A/C is common, can be loud, and occasionally runs on a 4‑hour timer; not every room has A/C. The pools are smaller and can feel busy at times, and you may hear early landscaping, nearby pickleball/tennis, or upstairs footsteps. Views aren’t guaranteed, some units require stairs (no elevators), and a handful of reviews mentioned ants or roaches—generally isolated but worth keeping food sealed. Tip: choose a recently updated unit in the photos, confirm A/C setup, stairs, and bed configuration, expect a short drive to the beach, and bring or buy cooking condiments and extra toiletries.

Place was alright but floors wer dusty and dirty, there wer roaches in the kitchen cabinets, and the AC in master bedroom was leaking water onto the floor due to condensation and wrong pitch of ac installation.

We had such a lovely stay at these apartment during our vacation. The place was beautifully equipped with everything we could possibly need — it truly felt like a home away from home. Everything was clean, cozy, and very comfortable.

This unit is located in the center of Wailea and our family of four enjoyed our 12 night stay.
My husband and I have a 12 year old daughter and 17 year old son and the unit had plenty of space.
Kitchen is set for cooking with nonstick and stainless steel pans. Dishwasher, refrigerator, and microwave all worked great. No seasoning is provided except salt and pepper.
Both restrooms come with shampoo, conditioner, and body wash. They are big enough for 2 people to get ready.
TV has cable and my boys enjoyed watching the Dodgers and keeping up with sports. No issues with the WiFi at all.
Unit is located close enough to The Shops by either a quick drive or a walk. Plenty of restaurants or a quick bite at Island Gourmet.
If you want a more relaxed atmosphere, Kohala Brewery and Tikehau Lounge were both excellent and you can also walk to enjoy.
Enjoyed our stay!

Lovey view of ocean. Kitchen looks nice, but not user friendly. Kitchen pantry filled with appliances allowing no space for guest food storage. Floor mats at entry are dirty and worn. Carpet needs to be cleaned.It's a great location - just needs a little TLC.

The unit was everything stated and more! The beach equipment was in pristine shape. The beds were extremely comfortable. Communication was excellent! Close proximity to The Wailea Shops. We were able to play some tennis, but be prepared to pay 100 for 1.5 hours of court time & rentalsWe had friends who stayed at Polo (on the beach), they left early, & offered their place to us. We declined to spend the night since our place was more comfortable and way more quiet. We would definitely stay again especially for the price!

Very nice condo. Very comfortable. Had all the amenities. A little dated. Check in was easy, but I personally hate the lock box with the key inside. Very difficult to maneuver. Glad we didn't have to use it every time we went in or out. Owner/manager was delightful and easy to work with. Good price.

It was my first time to Maui and this property was absolutely perfect! Beautiful view and walking distance to The Shops At Wailea and the beach! I had several requests and the responses were very prompt and accommodating. I highly recommend staying here for your next Maui trip. You won’t be disappointed!

There aren’t many properties located in Wailea. This was my second stay in this complex and exactly where I wanted to be located. The unit is next to the pool and was very clean with the except bedroom carpet. Be prepared to pay the full amount when reserving even if checking incremental payments. The owner was responsive in communication and receptive to my requests.

Love this condo for its location within the nice Wailea location at Maui. The condo is near to all nice areas of restaurants and shops. The complex is nicely landscaped and well maintained. The rental management company has all the checkin and checkout details all arranged for a smooth process. The condo itself is well stocked with all amenities for a comfortable stay. Will come back to book again the next visit opportunity.

The condo is very clean and in an amazing location in the condo complex and next to the best restaurants and the Wailea shopping center super close to beach but up a bit away from the noise. The views were beautiful of the golf course and ocean. It is a bit dated, but the price can’t be beat so you have to weigh that in. Communication was great and it was super quiet.

Property was very clean. Furnishings very comfortable. Primary shower was great!! The only “issue” was a creaky bed in Primary Suite and a weird foam mattress topper. But it was comfortable! Very cool to enjoy meals on the patio and watch/listen the birds.

Have stayed in Maui many times over the years and this property is hands down the best on the island! The location and the amenities of the unit are amazing! Great to stay with 2 families or your own family as it has 2 huge bedrooms with on suite bathrooms and a queen pull out in the living area. Beds were comfortable and unit has been completely updated with the best outdoor porch area! Look no further if staying in Waillea!! They have beach chair, beach towels, coolers, snorkel equipment and anything you need for the beach. Kitchen is fully stocked with dishes, glasses, all utensils needed for making dinners. Unit is the best view as it is on the 3rd floor. Only thing to note is if you have people coming not able to safely climb stairs, probably not the best for you. Everything else was a 10 plus!

I traveled solo to Maui for a friend's wedding. This was the perfect place for my needs - walking distance to the beach, the wedding venue, restaurants, and shopping. The listing was as-is and the bed was comfortable and a/c and wifi worked great. I do not hesitate to recommend this place and would stay here again.

Like staying in a Four Seasons resort suite. Very comfy, well appointed. The only minor criticism is that the bedroom A/C was a bot noisy. But good ceiling fans . Definately a return destination.

We had an amazing stay, thank you! The location is minutes away from fantastic beaches and great restaurants. The apartment is well equipped with anything you may need and is so spacious and tranquil. The air conditioners in every room made it perfectly cool even on the hot day and every person could have a climate to their liking.We would definitely rent this place again next time we come to Maui.Thank you for the great time!

This was our second stay in this unit at Grand Champions! The location is great… close to everything! The hosts are very accommodating and we felt welcomed!! A few upgrades added were noticed and appreciated. (Coffee maker/ new beach umbrella) And of course the sunsets never dissappoint!! We will hopefully be back!
June 2025
Very nice unit and well stocked with supplies and would certainly recommend this unit. We had neighbors above us who were a bit loud towards the evening (not with voices but with loud floor noise). Nothing to do with the unit but we did find that twice someone parked in our stall (this was odd since there is amble guest parking at Grand Champions). We have stayed at Grand Champions many times in the past and never encountered someone in our parking stall.

We loved this condo. The bedrooms are large, so the kid who was sleeping on the pullout couch still had plenty of space in the primary bedroom for all of their things. It was clean and super well stocked. We had everything we needed for a few simple meals throughout the week. I can’t think of anything we needed that we did not have at our fingertips. The hosts were in touch and helpful. We would definitely stay here again!

We enjoyed our short stay at Wailea Serenity. The condo was very clean and spacious for our family of 4. The unit had everything we needed and more. It was nice to have all of the beach gear, even though we didn’t use it. Jude was super helpful anytime I had any questions. We would certainly rent this unit and from Jude again.

The property was just as advertised. The rooms were spacious and had everything we needed for our trip. It was lovely to wake up with a morning cup of coffee sitting on the balcony overlooking the golf course to start our day. Highly reccomended.

Overall, the property looked just as advertised and we were satisfied with the stay! AC is a must, great amenities, and overall ambiance of community. The only downside was this property has a bit of an ant problem - was not uncommon to see them crawling in the bathroom, sink, outside, etc.. need to spray down or something.
