We had rented at Hale Mahina A105 and a couple other units approximately 8 years ago, the pool, lawn and garden foliage were well kept. The beach had lost 70% of its sand, A105unit had very little maintenance, the carpet was very dirty as was the rest of the unit

This was our second stay at the Hale Mahina Beach Resort, and it was amazing, again! If you are looking for a condo experience, this is the place. This complex cannot not be beat, with a private pool & spa, a nice grassy area to stretch out and their own beach just steps from your own condo…it is paradise. We lost count of the number of sea turtles we saw either swimming in the surf or resting on our beach over the week we were at Hale Mahina.This condo was well appointed, well stocked and beautifully renovated. The Loft bedroom gives you ocean views and the sounds of waves all night long. The second bedroom on the main floor gets amazing breezes off the mountain. The management team was very quick to respond to questions and were happy to make sure our experience was unforgettable. We had such an amazing stay and this condo is a bookmark for us for future trips to MAUI! Mahalo

We had the best time evwr at this cute cottage on the beach. The beach is not really great for snorkel, but the green area and pool/spa is amazing. There are several beaches with more sand near by and i cant recommend more the valet parking at sheraton, have a drink and enjoy black rock beach. Everyday there were turtles at our beach and we saw whales in the distance. Our host was very nice.

The property is in a super nice location and have a great view. Randy communicated very well.However we suffered quite a lot on the cleanness and bugs. We saw cockroaches in the kitchen. All the rooms look a bit dirty and definitely need some deep cleaning. Every night we had to kill tens of ants in the bedroom. One of the kids got bitten by the ant. We reported them back to Randy. Hopefully it can be improved.If you don't care the cleanness or not bothered by the bugs, this is still a good property. Unfortunately we are not a big fan and this almost ruins our family trip.

Had a great at time at the temporary home. The place has a great view of the beach and sunset. It was nice to have an exclusive portion of beach. Each day we went to the beach we saw turtle(s) slowly making their way toward the retaining wall and steps. Kitchen was well stocked which utensils, plates, bowls, cookware and all major appliances.

We had a week stay here at Hale Mahina. The location was great for visiting lots of different beaches and snorkeling spots and getting a good coffee every morning. The complex had a private beach where we sat on the lawn and swam in the ocean, we also cooked on the grills a few nights as we watched the sunset. The kitchen had all the tools we needed to cook for ourselves. Although there wasn’t any air conditioning in the unit the many fans made it comfortable. Everyone in the complex was friendly and we made new friends. Overall the stay was excellent, all the chairs and decorations were so fun. We will be back soon for sure! Thanks to Keith and Judy for being responsive and for sharing their vacation home. Andrew Helene

Good sized space for 4 adults, as long as you're okay with lack of complete walls. The upstairs "room" is a loft and the main floor room has an open wall to the rest of the unit. Kitchen was well-stocked and it was very easy to make our meals while we stayed. We really loved the pool area with easy access to the beach. I could've not left the property and spent every day of our 1 week vacation there. Our lanai was a beautiful spot to eat dinner every night with the sunset. Easy enough proximity into Lahaina. No AC, but lots of fans around to help keep it temperate during the day.

Go see for yourself! And enjoy a slice of Heaven on Earth. The condo is perfect; clean, well equipped, a view you can’t get enough of, and located in the midst of anything Hawaiian-style you may want. I’ve stayed at Hale Mahina over 6 times and this is the best condo yet. The only downside is there seems to be new management of the HOA and grounds since Wonderful Larry retired. The landscaping seemed a bit sad, where once a beautiful flower garden flourished, and while we were there a sign was posted stating “no children under 14 allowed in the hot tub.” In addition, a lovely young family staying in the building, with two children were apparently flagged and cited as having unruly children in the common areas. I saw this family every day and the children (under 5) were just fine and well attended by their very friendly and well behaved parents. I did not witness a single action that warranted any kind of reprimand. Talking with other guests they too felt a shift in the overall friendliness and warmth of the current homeowners. There was a rather large group of actual condo owners at this time and they were a complaining bunch. As a result of these actions I describe two different couples are not bringing their families next year. One couple had intended to rent three condos. That is a lot of business to lose. It is a shame to see a place once so warm and welcoming lose its appeal because of a bunch of grouchy retirees. I say all this with much Aloha for Hale Mahina.

A very peaceful place to come in after a busy day cheering on the basketball teams. This visit was on our daughter’s bucket list for her 40th birthday. It did not disappoint. The only little hiccup of you can call it that, was not finding the pool/beach key by the door. But after looking through the condo we found it on a cabinet under the stairs Thank you for a lovely place to stay!

wonderful location and view

November 2024

Room was lovely. Found the floors to be quite dirty as our feet turned colors walking barefoot. Of all the short term rentals that we've stayed in, this was the least well supplied. Everyone always leaves stuff behind but the cleaning crew must take it. No salt. No pepper. No condiments or spices. Had to buy more dishwasher soap and garbage bags which we left for the next guest.

We rented this space from November 3-9. The location is beautiful, close to several grocery stores, souvenir shops and places to dine.  Our family of 4 had plenty of space and everyone got their own bathroom, which we love! Plenty of room to hang clothes up, washer and dryer work and it’s great to be able to wash and dry our clothes.  The kitchen is equipped with utensils, pots, pans, glasses, wine glasses, plates, bowls and mugs. The coffee pot works slow but gets the job done. We were able to get whole bean coffee due to a coffee grinder in the kitchen (wonderful!). Parking passes were great. Lots of keys to the place which is good because you’ll need a key to get in and out of the pool area which stays fairly calm with the manager staying in one of the units.  Our unit was a corner unit, while there is no air conditioning, there are a lot of windows that you can open. It takes about a night to get acclimated when coming from Salt Lake City.  The listing says there is a blow dryer, however it’s very old and doesn’t really “work” so make sure to pack a hair dryer if you use one.  Upon arriving, we were tired and happy to have big beds in each room. The mattresses are a bit worn, as the king bed has divots where people lay. We were disappointed in the cleanliness of the place to be honest. Walls are dirty, brown spots in bathrooms and on walls. We realize it’s by the ocean and took much of the wear and tear as that. But the dead bugs and dirt in corners of rooms and stairs.

Wonderful 3 bedroom 3bath. Ocean side as promised. Tradewinds made water at beach a challenge but would definitely book again. No AC was bummer but plenty of fans and natural air flow allowed for plenty of circulation.

This unit is amazing! Hale Mahina is the only place we have ever and would ever stay. We've stayed in several units at Hale Mahina and this is definitely one of the best units ever. The unit is newly remodeled, has everything you need, the kitchen is amazing and of the view of course is spectacular! If you are looking for a quiet getaway in a great location, this is your place!

Owner dropped the ball! We were left stranded, no return message or phone call. Vrbo tried contacting owner with no reply. Sitting in the condo parking lot on the phone with Vrbo trying to find another reservation on the fly after traveling all day. Vrbo took great care of us. I was in tears and have never experienced anything like it when booking. 2 weeks later I received, "an I sorry excuse " of I was sick, my internet was off & my phone was not working. I don't care about your excuses. We paid you and you utterly failed us as a host. It was a fabulous way to start my cancervisary celebration!

We absolutely loved our stay here! The place was exactly as listed. It was clean & had all the supplies we needed. We enjoyed watching the ocean from our balcony every night and morning. We enjoyed using the pool, hot tub, and charcoal grills. We played on the beach that is right there. Two of the days we had sea turtles up on the beach. Other days we saw them swimming. We loved the location. The stand fans were so nice to have so we didn't get too hot at night. We appreciated that there was dishwasher detergent, laundry detergent, garbage bags, shampoo, soap, & conditioner. There were plenty of bath towels, and loved that there were beach towels too. The location was outstanding (so close to our favorite snorkeling beaches!!) We would definitely stay here again!!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Pluses:~ Beautiful views from the Lanai. ~ Easy access to the small, private beach (no long walks on the beach here). ~ Seeing Honu turtles in the surf just off our beach daily and evidence of their beach visits in the morning, plus actually seeing them on the beach one night!Room for improvement:~ While there is a portable AC unit in the bedroom, it only cooled the room to 82, though it was set at 67. I found closing the bedroom doors helped cool the room to 77.~ All lights were left on in the unit prior to my arrival which added to the heat. ~ A small lamp for the counter area to the right of the desk would be nice for low light. (I moved one of the bedroom lamps there temporarily during my stay.)~ A tall lamp beside the sofa would also be appreciated.~ The bedroom would be very tight for 2 people given the fan and portable AC nearly block access to one side of the bed.~ The bathroom end of the bedroom and the bathroom itself can be seen at night, when the lights are on, from the staircase landing outside the unit.~ Bed is VERY FIRM (and I like a firmer bed).

Had a great time visiting Maui

September 2024

We had a very enjoyable stay. The only drawback for us was the lack of air conditioning on our first night (beginning of September) as it was hot and humid with the fans not providing enough cooling that we are used to. This experience may vary for different people with different temperature preferences. The condo had everything we needed with exception of soap and shampoo for showering which was easy to get with a 10 minute drive south to Safeway, or even closer at the Times Supermarket Honokowai. Condo felt spacious enough for two adults and a toddler. Beautiful ocean view and adequate privacy night and day. Neighbors and neighborhood were not noisy. We did not run into any problems inside or outside the apartment. Wish I could have stayed longer. We would come back in the future if the opportunity presents itself.

The condo had everything we needed for a relaxing stay! Well appointed kitchen, comfy beds, and plenty of extras like snorkel gear and boogie boards. The sunset views were incredible and the daily turtle visits were a treat! The only con was the upper bedroom/loft was warm (no a/c) however the property owners provide fans in each room and all have ceiling fans as well. Don’t hesitate to book this gem!!

The condo was recommended by a friend and we had been longing to go. It was everything she said it was. Very nice and clean, well stocked with everything we needed, everything worked as it should... and the best part was evening sunsets. We really had a hard time leaving the property to go explore the island but when we did everything felt like it was right there. we will come back and we've already recommended this spot to friends.

The building itself dose not looks as in the pictures, the building is old and dull, lacks of charisma, But I have to say is clean, the pool was nice and the outdoors is very relaxing, the room again, it looks as in the pictures but … it just feels sad, it needs color, I don’t know, But it was clean and it has EVERYTHING you need for a good stay, from beach towels, chairs, swimming gear

Our family of five stayed here for a week during August. The first thought upon entering the apartment was, “this place is huge”. We had a ton of room. The location was perfect with a family friendly atmosphere but close enough to all the area has to offer. We spent each morning watching the sea turtles eat right off the retainer wall and even watched dolphins our last day on site. The kitchen is well appointed and there’s snorkel gear, coolers, and beach toys to enjoy. We highly recommend. Randy was very responsive and wonderful.
