Reviewer Portrait

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.

Hale Kai O Kihei delivers a classic Maui, oceanfront stay with a relaxed, low-rise vibe. Guests love the uncrowded, kid‑friendly beach just steps from the lawn, nightly sunsets from the lanai, and frequent whale and sea turtle sightings in season. Its central Kihei location is a standout: you can walk to a grocery store, food trucks, coffee, and restaurants, and drive easily to Wailea, Lahaina/Kāʻanapali, Upcountry, and the Road to Hāna. The grounds are tidy and peaceful, with a small, seldom‑busy pool, BBQs, shuffleboard, and plenty of lounge space on the grass for when the beach gets windy.

Units vary, but many have been tastefully remodeled and are exceptionally well stocked—think full kitchens with spices and oils, beach chairs/umbrella/cooler/boogie boards, and thoughtful extras. Several hosts and managers earn high marks for friendly, fast communication, and repeat visitors are common. Some condos include split A/C (even in the bedroom) and in‑unit laundry, while many others rely on a living‑room A/C plus ceiling/tower fans and use the onsite coin/card laundry. Across the board, the star is the lanai: sweeping ocean views for morning coffee and postcard sunsets.

Trade‑offs reflect an older, low‑key complex. Quality and decor differ by unit; while many are spotless and updated, others feel dated or need deeper cleaning. A recurring theme is limited A/C to the living area—bedrooms can run warm—and there’s no elevator to upper floors. The pool is small with set hours, and the beach, though lovely for walks and gentle swimming, can be shallow/rocky in spots and isn’t a top snorkeling beach; afternoons may be breezy. Occasional ants/roaches (tropical reality), periodic property maintenance, and a few mentions of homeless activity in the broader area come up, though most guests still describe a quiet, safe stay. If you value serene, true oceanfront living and easy island access over resort flash, this property hits the sweet spot.

Joes condo was perfect in every way. On a quiet beach with beautiful sand and sunsets! The condo had everything we wanted and was in the middle of everything we wanted to do on the island. The kitchen and everything he supplies while we were here is perfect. Beach chairs, cooler, snorkeling gear and umbrella was provided to make our stay the best on the island. Thank you Joe for everything and we will be back!

When I pulled up, I was worried because it was like a small motel look… plain. Nice, clean, but not tropical resort looking. But once we opened the door, it was beautiful! Really clean and modern furnishings and fixtures. The view is in the back of the condo!! Right out to the ocean. Really beautiful. Quiet, with just the ocean waves. It was a quick walk over a very small hill right to the beach!! Everything we needed for a couple of days was there. And it was really relaxing!

Our tropical home away from home. The perfect home base for exploring the sites around Maui to just relaxing by the pool or grounds with a round of shuffle board or bocce ball. Coffee in the morning on the lanai was a favorite along with watching the beautiful sunsets.

I would stay at this location again. Owner is very nice to deal with. Only problem was a small problem with ants in the kitchen. Owner provides everything needed from snorkel equipment, children sized surf boards, and all kinds of toys to play in the sand.

Fantastic apartment. Very clean and well equipped and the location was amazing. We were able to settle in straight away and had a very enjoyable break. Facilities in the area were good too. Communications with Joe were prompt and useful. We plan to come back!

We had a wonderful stay at this beachfront condo in Kihei! The location couldn’t be better, steps from the sand, gorgeous sunsets every evening, and close to great restaurants and shops. The condo was spotless, well-stocked with everything we needed, and had a comfortable, relaxed vibe. Perfect spot for a Maui getaway—highly recommend!

This unit was exactly as described and kitchen had everything we needed for cooking and grilling on the outside grill. While there was a pool downstairs, we opted for a swim in the ocean - the beach is a 1 min walk.we spend a week exploring the island and loved having a balcony to eat breakfast and dinner (while watching the sunset).

We had a wonderful stay! The location was excellent, with a beautiful view of the ocean that made every morning special. The condo was comfortable and overall very enjoyable. Only a small note: we noticed some tiny ants in the kitchen, but it wasn’t a big issue and didn’t take away from the experience. Would happily stay here again!

It was a very nice, clean condo with fantastic views of the ocean. I wish they would state that there is no elevator in their ad, other than that it was in a great location close to everything. We had a wonderful week.

Me and my husband are headed to Maui for my birthday trip and this property was absolutely perfect! Completely renovated and clean with absolutely stunning views!

This place was amazing. It was so quiet and relaxing. The Lani right on the beach was our favorite place to sit and drink our coffee in the morning and then watch the sunset in the afternoon. Thank you so much for the wonderful place to stay!

Walkable to many restaurants and right on the water with beautiful views! The best part was the sea turtles basking on the beach right outside the condo!

We loved our stay in Kihei at Joe's condo. He was very eager and willing to make our stay a happy one. The condo was clean, modern, and comfortable. The views speak for itself. In fact, we looked forward to breakfast on the lanai each morning and amazing sunsets each night. It was a truly spectacular condo!

This is a really wonderful property. Perfect for 2 people but it also worked for us when one of our adult-kids and his girlfriend stayed with us for a few days. The unit is in a clean and quiet complex off the main road but VERY close to a lot of places we wanted to visit. The access to the beach could not be easier. Make sure to go for a walk at night to see a lot of sea-turtles. The appliances are all up-to-date and worked very well. We loved having the full-sized fridge with an ice-maker. The sunsets from the balcony are amazing. The host was very responsive to our couple of pre-stay questions. All around, a great place to stay.

We had a fabulous 10 days- a very quiet and relaxing property! Picture were excellent for the description. The washer and dryer are located on the first floor rather than in the unit and that was not clear in the description although it worked out fine for us. Might should consider updated cushions for the balcony chairs as they are worn and not comfortable or perhaps more of a lounge chair would be better. Overall a great property and we will be back!

This property was AWESOME!!! We had 3 young adults and 2 old timers stay here, and it was spacious, well appointed, was in a great location, and had the BEST views and direct ocean access that made our vacation so memorable! The beds were comfortable (slept up to 6 in actual beds), and having 2 bathroom was fantastic. This place has been recently updated - the place inside and out exceeded our expectations, we will definitely be back!

We loved this location being centrally located on the island. The condo was perfect for our family of 5 and the sunset views were GORGEOUS!! The condo and amenities were exactly as pictured/described and we had everything we needed for our stay. We all thought the mattresses were super-comfy as well!!

Perfect location. Lovely condo. The only thing lacking was air conditioning in the bedroom for better sleeping when the weather is warm and humid. We loved our stay. Would stay there again

My husband and I had the best week long stay here for our honeymoon. The location was unbeatable. Nothing compares to the view from the balcony (see photos). We loved that we didn’t even have to cross the street to be at the beach. It was walking distance to several restaurants we wanted to try (nalus, misophat sushi, shaved ice) and short drive to all the other things we wanted to do/try in the area. Biggest surprise was the unit having 3 sets of snorkeling masks, beach chairs, towels, and a boogie board. We were thrilled to discover this and not have to rent/buy our own. The condo was comfortable and well maintained and we were happy about the in unit laundry. The area was quiet and peaceful and we had no noise issues. Safe/ample parking. I couldn’t recommend it any more!!! We would be thrilled to stay any time we are in Maui.

We love This condo because it is ground floor with a grassy area and just steps to the ocean. It is relatively updated, with everything you could possibly need for your stay. Being a smaller complex, it is relatively quiet, which suits us for a totally relaxing stay. We will return again

Everything looks exactly like the photos. Room was clean when we arrived, AC was great, kitchen had most of everything we needed, and the views off the balcony were absolutely stunning. We watched the sunset from the porch every night! Beach access is directly behind the condo on first floor. Pool was great to cool off! We loved it! Highly recommend and would 100% come stay again.

I have stayed at other condos within this property and am very happy with the location. This particular co do was not very clean. Floors were so dirty i couldnt take off shoes. The ceiling (popcorn) was absolutely disgusting in the bedroom.

We loved it! Just enough room for the two of us

Beautiful decor and everything you could possibly need. The towels were fluffy and smelled amazing. The front door enters immediately into the bedroom and the door is frosted glass. A room darkening curtain would be a nice addition on that window. The building itself is not super fancy. The other property owners could tidy up their outdoor spaces - one had an old mattress sitting outside - and this would improve the view of the building from the pretty beach and lawn area. These are relatively minor issues. The water is not quite as clear and blue as other beaches on Maui but we enjoyed the close proximity, swimming and saw a turtle and a seal!
