The view here was great! The place was clean and roomy. The kitchen and bath had all the supplies we needed, the A/C and washer/dryer was a plus. Joe was always so quick to respond if I had any questions. Would definitely book this place again!

The view from the lanai, access to the beach and access to so many amenities was perfect! Also, had an extra perk from the front door to watch the lunar eclipse.

Condo is right on the beach and very well kept. We enjoyed our weekend there and look forward to booking again in the future.

We were contacted by the rental agency to tell us the place was not updated, giving us the opportunity to cancel. We went ahead and stayed there but let the buyer beware. The place was definitely not updated and not cared for at all. it was like a 70s motel, not particularly clean and really unloved. The general property outside was great as was the view and beach. tWe would not recommend this place.

Great layout with master suite on oceanfront for fresh air and sound of the waves at night! We would stay again if some maintenance was done.Patio light was out. We were told they were on order. A C unit drips into a bowl that needs to be emptied every few hours?? Screen door should be replaced so it doesn’t screech whenever moved.

This was our second time on Maui but our first at this VRBO. It is in the perfect location - on a pretty quiet street right on the beach. I would absolutely stay here again - I’ve already sent the listing to family members so they can stay there in the future! It’s exactly as pictured and the view is unmatched. Book this place!

We enjoyed the location of the stay - we had family staying at the HKOK as well and also at the resort right behind the unit. The view from the patio is unbeatable. Our unit seemed to have tiny little pests coming up from the sink and shower and oven. Luckily, we did not cook in our unit at all but that definitely would have been a problem if we planned to. I understand the listing indicates there are bugs everywhere but none of the other 3 units our family rented had the same issue. I also noticed that the unit could definitely use a deep clean - like washing the bed skirt and deep cleaning the grout in the shower. Again, in comparison to the other units, ours just fell a little short for comparable pricing. That said, the view and location was great for the beach and store right down the way. We enjoyed the food truck court nearby as well!

Absolutely fantastic property. The views are second to none and as long as you can deal with seeing whales and turtles everyday you should have no problem. The suite has everything you need including an air fryer, instantpot, beach gear, lots of towels and even binoculars if you forgot yours. For those with late flights there is a Safeway nearby that is open 24/7. Stop on the way from the airport. Everything was clean and our trip was perfect.

Great locations, on the beach, and central to any spot on Maui. Description matched the condo, however, more beach amenities (beach chairs, towels, umbrella, cooler), than in description, which was great, but needs to be noted. We will definitely stay here again.

Great location! Can hear the waves at night. Walk to groceries and restaurants and the beach is right out front. Can watch the whales from the lanai, walk on the beach and soak up the sun. Doesn't get any better than that.

We can’t say enough about this lovely accommodation in Kihei. The place is perfectly furnished and supplied— and the sunset view is unbeatable! It’s also a great location on the island.

The grounds of this property are immaculate, clean and well kept. We loved the location in central Kihei and just steps from the beach. The view from the balcony was amazing and we love how everyone flocks to the beach for sunset. The condo was super cute and had everything we needed. Management was very responsive to the few questions we had.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo is located in the middle of a tremendously long, gorgeous beach. We arrived with heavy luggage just as the property manager was making the final touches to the unit, and he immediately volunteered to carry our bags up to the third floor. The condo faces directly west out toward the ocean. Beautiful unsets every day are perfect.There are also easy walks for restaurants, groceries, etc.

February 2025

Our stay in Kihei was nothing short of spectacular. The view from the property was absolutely breathtaking—truly an incredible location. The property team was also a joy to work with, making the entire process smooth and hassle-free. Although the unit didn't have a washer and dryer (but avail onsite), this minor detail was easily overshadowed by the overall amazing experience. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a memorable stay in Kihei.

The best part about this condo is the location. Beautiful view, well-kept grounds, quiet, right on the beach. Walk to or short drive to restaurants and shopping. As for the condo, it was clean and pretty well equipped. There were beach chairs and umbrellas in a chest on the lanai. This condo could do with a facelift, but it was just fine for the two of us to have a peaceful quiet week on the beach.
Susan J.
February 2025

We really enjoyed the ocean view from our 3rd floor lanai, watching whales. Evening turtle visits were a short walk down the beach. This was our second year in a row at this unit. The condo building manager was very attentive, and the other tenants were super social.

Everything on the listing was accurate except the bed was rotated 90 degrees which was no big deal. The views are awesome and the place is very quiet. The beach is so so. The air conditioning is very loud and you cannot watch tv at the same time the ac is running as you cannot hear the tv. The bedroom does not have ac. You get the air from the window unit that is in the livig room. Therefore, you have to blast the ac so it gets cool in the room. The bed is comfortable. Plenty of dishes, wine opener, cups, etc. No elevator so you have to carry your luggage 3 stories high. Plenty of towels and pillows. No shampoo or body wash provided. Only hand soap, dish detergent, dish sponge, washing machine pods, and coffee for 2 days. Washer and dryers available on site (not inside the unit) for 3 each per cycle. Pool was small, but nice. Parking was available all days of our stay. No issues. Supermarket , shops, and restaurants within walking distance. Drapes in the bedroom need to be cleaned. They are dusty and so are the ceiling fans and vents. Especially the one in the bathroom. Overall, I would stay again knowing all these things as they are small annoyances. Received courtesy calls after checking in and prior to checking out. No issues with the property whatsoever.

This location was perfect and exactly as described. Sitting on the lanai each morning drinking coffee and watching the ocean was a wonderful way to wake up. The sunsets were spectacular as well.

February 2025

We enjoyed our stay at Hale Kai O’Kihei. The owner has thought of our every need, from kitchen accessories to beach towels. Better yet, the views of the ocean, sunsets and sunrises were unsurprised. The location was perfect: right on the water, within walking distance to restaurants and grocery stores, and in a quiet neighborhood. The other tenants and guests were friendly and helpful, but not intruding. There were washing facilities on site, and we never had to wait to use them. I would definitely stay there again.

Property located in great area, close walking and driving to activities and restaurants. Property as described and pictured. Bedding had some stains, otherwise rental was clean and had all things needed. AC and fans were loud, made it hard to sleep soundly while staying cool. Beautiful view and sandy beach right outside.

Loved staying at this condo! The location was perfect and central to so many things not to mention seeing the turtles on the beach right in the backyard! Only thing to note were some bugs in the condo but that’s to be expected in a ground floor unit in a tropical environment. Would 1,000 percent stay here again!

Joe and Roopa's place is awesome! I wanted a place that was "oceanfront" and Joe and Roopa's is literally about sixty steps from the beach. Sunsets and whale watching from the lanai were amazing! Very close proximity to restaurants, grocery store, pharmacy etc. The condo is equipped with all you will need including some nice extras like beach chairs, beach towels, a cooler. Comfy bed too! I highly recommend Joe and Roopa's, their place is perfect and they are very attentive, responsive, kind hosts.

Extremely poorly outfitted. For example, there is only one huge and one tiny pot, the hair dryer is held together with saran wrap, but it was very clean and there'd is very comfortable.

This property was in the perfect location and served all our needs. The beach is easily accessible right downstairs, and it’s a very short walk to Times Supermarket for any groceries or toiletries. There are also several restaurants nearby, so you don’t need to travel far for a meal.The unit itself was well stocked and reasonably clean. It has dishware, silverware, pots/pans, cleaning supplies, a stove and microwave - the only thing that could be missing is a toaster oven. We noticed “ant killer” in one of the supply drawers, and later did see some teeny tiny little ants, but not enough that it bothered us. The lanai was amazing to get fresh ocean air, and I was pleasantly surprised that they supplied two beach chairs, a beach umbrella, and cooler as well. We didn’t use all of these, but it’s nice to have, so you don’t need to rent elsewhere.On the last day, there was an issue with our doorcode where we were locked out, but the office responded and resolved the issue within the half hour. Overall, we’d be happy to stay here again!

We spent 8 days in this beach front condo and loved every second of it. The condo’s patio opens up to an incredible view of the ocean. The grounds in front are nicely kept with sweeping palms adding to the beauty of the ocean view and warm breezes. You can’t beat the location, right on the beach!! A smaller building makes for a quiet relaxed atmosphere. The condo itself had all we needed to enjoy our stay. It is a bit outdated but clean and cozy. For us the only down side was no dishwasher and the 2 bedrooms had sliding curtains rather than walls which isn’t great for privacy. We still loved it though and would definitely re book.
