This two bedroom unit was perfect for our son, DIL and two grandchildren. Pool directly in front of the room and the lawn is beautiful. Fantastic access to the beach and the view is priceless! Wonderful kitchen and very comfortable beds. Mahalo.

We enjoyed our stay in this unit and although we had a couple of issues when we arrived, the property manager was wonderful. We had a broken chair on the lanai and a burn mark/hole on one of the couch cushions. We reported it immediately and were very happy with their response. The broken chair was removed and they already knew about the couch cushion. Beautiful views. Phenomenal beach. Mahalo!

We enjoyed our stay at this lovely property very much! The condo is well situated on the island, with an easy walk to a supermarket and a variety of restaurants. Lovely beach with beautiful sunset views. The bed was very comfortable and the apartment was updated and had everything we needed! We would stay again!

The condo was well stocked, clean and updated. We enjoyed the location being on the beach and close to everything we needed and wanted to do. Pam was very responsive when there was an issue and handled it very fairly even though it was beyond her control and no fault of her own. We would stay here again.

This is a relatively small condo complex which added to the charm of the condo. We enjoyed every moment especially morning coffee on the lanai. We used the BBQ grill and the swimming pool areas, both well maintained. The grounds were well maintained and the swaying palm trees added a touch of romance. Would definitely recommend staying here and we hope to visit again soon.

Had a great time staying at Hale Kai O KIhei 210. Condo is as described: clean, modern, perfect size for 2 people, and super easy beach access. Met some of the other condo tenants while we were there, nice friendly people.The poki at the Times Supermarket (5 minute walk) is on point, probably the best we've had on the island.

Can’t say enough about the location and the accommodation. The beach is steps away and we spent the evenings watching the sunset from our balcony. Grocery store was right around the corner. Bed was great and the area was quiet.

Owner was great and very communicative, property is as listed, we walked right out to the beach, walked to coffee shop, grocery and restaurants. The location on the island is also amazing - easy to get around the entire island from here. The owner kept us informed about what was in the house, it was well stocked for simple cooking and snacks and such. Not promised, but other guests left beach chairs that were most welcome to use. Laundry in the building, not in the unit, and it cost, but we were grateful for the owner providing laundry soap. Suggest that you bring you own larger shampooconditioner. Yes, the kitchen had what we needed to cook a few meals, containers to bring snack with us out on our travels. Yes the kitchen is a bit old, but you don't come here for the kitchen, go sit on that porch and watch the ocean! We loved our visit. Our check in was a bit off because of a new air conditioner being installed, but that was really minor and they kept us informed. We used the fans the whole trip, it was never hot enough to turn the AC on. (April) 3rd floor walkup. We did not even look for an elevator. Everything in the unit worked, the building was nice and quiet, and the views are spectacular. It really was a great location.

Incredible oceanfront condo in Kihei. What a great experience from check-in to checkout. Views for days! Great facility that's well stocked with utensils and cleaning products. Appliances all worked well, and the beach chairs and Boogie boards were very nice to have. Beautiful property so close to the beach with sensational sunsets.

Second floor condo overlooking the beautiful grass grounds, palm trees and ocean. Very quiet neighborhood as well as the condos! 2-5 minute walk to grocery store and several restaurants and even a live show theatre. Long walking beach where we saw sea turtles basking in the sun. We could not have had a better stay!!

This place needs an update - windows were totally dirty. When wind blows it whistles loudly thought he louvered windows. When my daughter first walked in she came out and said, "I think someone is inside vacuuming!" There wasn't, it was the wind blowing through the louvered windows, which were closed. Very little pride in ownership!

Can’t beat the beach front location and just minutes away from shops and restaurants.

This stay truly couldn’t have been any better! The location, the views, the cleanliness and hospitality provided by Joe. All top notch! I stayed the prior 4 nights at a high end resort in Wailea and this was infinitely better. If I decide to visit Maui again, it will solely be dependent on the availability of this rental. Thank you for the memories!

The condo was exactly as described: perfectly situated across a beautiful lawn from the beach, clean and well-appointed, and walking distance to restaurants, food trucks, and a supermarket.We only contacted the property managers/owners a few times, and they were quite helpful each time.We cooked in the well-appointed kitchen and on the property's clean gas grill, and used the laundry facilities downstairs. (Pro tip: You don't need coins for the laundry; you can use your credit card or phone pay.)The combination of the wind coming in from the balcony through the screen, the ceiling fan, and the retractable balcony sun shade kept us very comfortable during the day without running the air conditioning. At night we ran the bedroom air conditioning.I can't say enough good things about the property. We loved it.

April 2025

The condo is in a great location close to restaurants, grocers and at ocean front. The sunsets are spectacular. Relaxing on the balcony during sunrise and sunsets was very enjoyable!! The condo is equipped with kitchen things you need for long stay. Additionally I appreciate having some sunscreens in the cabinet for uses. The only improvement I recommend is to replace the area rugs in living room and bedrooms to give a fresh look of this beautiful renovated space. We also appreciate the beach chairs and umbrella available for use on a beach day. Overall we are very pleased with the condo and have enjoyed our 8 day stay tremendously.

We've stayed at Hale Kai O'Kihei twice before and this is by far the best unit we've rented. Very nicely finished and we'll furnished with all the little items that set it apart from others. They provided everything, from a blender to boogie boards. It will be our first choice of units from here on out.

Unit was not cleaned. Burn marks on counter tops. 2 kitchen cupboard doors hanging off hinges. Carpet very old and worn plus stains all along the edge by sliding glass doors. Unit smells musty. I called Vacasa (property management) and they sent a cleaning company right away. Pool was broken and out of use for 5 days.

Clean and comfortable. Usually we can swim right in front of the condo. This stay the shallows and out a ways was Brown Water. Can’t swim in that! No sunsets either. The condo owner can’t control any of this. But in past stays the swimming and sunsets are amazing!

Caretaker used to hose off patio so bird poop didn't accumulate. And he used to blow off patios daily to get rid of sand and debris. The property used to be immaculate. No longer is it so.daily so sand and debris didn't buie used to

Well stocked in a great location. Fantastic beach location.

April 2025

My husband and I really appreciated and enjoyed our stay at Joe’s place. The check in process was seamless, easy, and the listing was very accurate as listed. There’s nothing worse than an inaccurate listing and Joe’s was spot on and newly renovated! We got so lucky finding this listing, not only are you steps from a long stretch of beautiful beach (no crossing the street required, just right outside the balcony below), the Maui powerhouse gym is only a 7 min walk and one of the best food truck areas is only about a 9 min walk (2 more mins from powerhouse gym). The condo was very clean and has everything we could need and more in the kitchen and bathroom. The bed is so comfy we want to buy the same one for our home. We could not believe how lucky we got in every category for a vacation rental. We will definitely be renting from Joe again next time we visit Maui! Thank you so much!!

This is a wonderful condo in a convenient location (2 blocks from lots of shopping and food) with a great ocean view. The ocean here is good for swimming and playing (with low to moderate waves) but not interesting snorkeling. The condo kitchen is the best equiped of any I have ever stayed in and most everything worked as expected (light was out under microwave). There are plenty of beach "toys" (chairs, mats, noodles, etc) left by other guests that can be used. The AA Oceanview managers were great but a very minor hassle to get the key on checkin. I will certainly put this place on the top of my list to see about renting for a future trip.

I loved the view from the second floor lanai. There was always a cool breeze blowing in to keep us cool and even though this unit had a great air conditioner, we didn’t need to use it. It also had an amazing beach, way less busy than other more southern Kihei beaches we’ve stayed near. I would absolutely book this condo again and highly recommend it. It had everything we needed and a few extras too!

This condo is perfect in every way! Beach access was super easy and close with an outstanding view for watching sunsets from the lanai. This is the single best I have ever seen a VRBO stocked...with beach towels and chairs, dishes, cookware and spices...even great soaps in the bathroom and multiple fans. We felt like we hit the jackpot with this find!

Fun Hawaiian theme decorations. Location was great, and just steps from the beach, where at dusk, I saw 6 big turtles haul out and rest in the sand. Pool was super clean. Plus the bed was super comfortable for me, (which is something I always worry about). It was a very pleasant stay. Highly recommend.

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.

Right on the ocean. Miles of beaches in either direction.

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.
