This property was truly so beautiful! Our family reunion of 8 siblings with our 87 year old Mom had the best time! The views are lovely, the full moon off the lanai every evening was memorable. Plenty of space for us all to enjoy together, and have privacy. The property is so quiet and the pool area is great and only a few people there! The host is responsive and takes care of any issues. Everything was sparkling clean and all the supplies for the beach were so helpful. The kitchen was wonderful to cook in. Nice restaurants within a short drive. We hope to come and stay again, this place really made our trip!!!

This was a perfect spacious lovely home in a fabulous location and was just the perfect home base for our daughter's "wedding week" in Wailea. We enjoyed the fabulous pool and the proximity to the beach and all the fabulous restaurants Wailea has to offer. Management was extremely responsive, allowed us to check in early and depart late as well - This is a great home for togetherness, and family time.

Our family of 7 adults enjoyed our stay tremendously and all our expectations were met and exceeded. Check-in and check-out were easy. The unit was very clean and was well-stocked for cooking in the beautiful kitchen. Every small appliance you could need was available and in like new condition, as well as spices and a small supply of oil. The welcome basket of coffee, chocolate and other treats was a nice surprise. Equipment for fun pool and beach days were great to have -- 3 boogie boards, beach chairs and towels for 8, beach umbrellas, beach cart and rolling cooler. The view from the balcony was spectacular and we enjoyed barbecue dinners several nights. There was easy access to the pool as this unit overlooks the pool area. We would wholeheartedly recommend and stay at this unit in Ho'olei again. Mahalo!

The property is beautiful, in a great location. We had 7 adults & were extremely comfortable. The villa was well stocked, better than we expected. The only issues we had were the dish washer did not work. We called & repair man showed up within an hour & said it was fixed, but we continued to have the same issue. Also limited space to hang wet swimsuits & towels. A few hooks in the laundry room, bathrooms or even garage would have been nice.

Comfortable and spacious, but it was the peacefulness, comfort and view from the lanai that drew us outdoors while we were staying. Easy walk to the fabulous pool area, and very easy access to many beautiful beaches. We would absolutely stay here again.

This place was incredible! The view alone was breathtaking every morning to wake up to. Could see the whales jumping and more than 180 degree view.Had everything you needed in kitchen and bathrooms. Was in great location, you can walk to beach or shops easily. You are up a hill obviously because of the view so can always drop someone off if can’t walk up the hill. We will definitely be back

This property proved to be the perfect location for our family vacation as it provided everything we could possibly want! We come to the Island for the Views of the Ocean ...This place has a beautiful view of the ocean where we were able to see whales and stunning sunsets! We like to be in a quieter, cleaner area during our stays which this property fit that requirement perfectly. The townhouse was well appointed, very clean, comfortable, and had 3 perfect living quarters for the whole family to have private escapes when needed. The location was perfect being within walking distance of several great restaurants, golf, a market, coffee, and of course the beach...yes walking distance to spend any amount of time you want with your toes in the sand!

The location is very convenient to walk to the amenities -especially the beautiful pool area.It is also easy to drive to other areas of Maui.The property manager is very helpful- we enjoyed a number of the restaurant recommendations.We would love to return- thanks to all for making it a special stay.

We really enjoyed our time in this villa. The new furnishings and decor were even more beautiful than the pictures that were shown on-line and fit beautifully within the island theme. Our family truly considered this our "island home" for our stay which went by much too quickly.

This was a beautiful home and excellent location for us. There were six adults in our family and we each had our own room and bathroom, which was very nice. The air conditioner work nicely and the management team was very prompt that we had. The pool was very close and nice to sit by and we could walk to several beaches nearby. The property had chairs and towels, and a wagon which was super sweet to use. It was well stocked with items that we needed to use for a simple cooking or paper products. The shop was close by to go to the store which was convenient and Costco was a big plus coming from the airport to get food for all of us. We thoroughly enjoyed our time. If there were two things I could fix to make the stay more comfortable, I would say the second bedroom downstairs with the king bed needs a dresser. It was hard for my daughter and her husband to put their clothes away in drawers for the week with no dresser in that room. The other caution is when you use the grill, it creates a lot of smoke and there is no fan or downdraft on the grill so it fills the patio up with smoke and makes it hard to eat out there after you’ve cooked something on the grill. The ceiling fans were not adequate so be aware if you set the table and then grill your food you may have to move indoors to eat other than that. It was a great property Mahalo.

This property exceeded our expectations! We were two adults and 4 teens and the most convenient thing was its proximity to the pool and the Grand Wailea resort/beach making it easy for the teens to walk to on their own. The property itself had everything you could possibly need from high-end appliances to games, puzzles, beach chairs and umbrellas as well as many of the basics like towels, laundry and dishwasher detergent, salt & pepper, aluminum foil, the list goes on. The only downside was its proximity to the road. The view is well hidden, but the sound can be loud (but only when you're outdoors). Also, no access to the Grand Wailea pools but we knew that going in. Seriously consider this property if you're wanting an easy walk to the pool/resort - many of the others are a fairly steep incline of a walk! We would definitely stay here again.

We loved the location and access to the beach. Great to be able to stop in at the pool after the beach on the way up the hill. Views from the terrace were fabulous and we loved the whale watching. Kitchen nicely organized and stocked for all of our needs.

The property was just as advertised. The CB Island Vacations team was very accommodating. We enjoyed being near the beach and especially liked the pool/recreational complex that was very near the unit. The property was perfect for a family.

Aloha! When we booked this stay, we were hoping for a nice place for our family of six to spend a week in Maui. What we arrived to TOTALLY EXCEEDED OUR EXPECTATIONS!!!From the second we walked in, we felt at peace and at home.The location in Wailea was incredible. Just a short walk down the hill to Wailea beach and the house provided beach chairs and umbrellas, which was great. And the resort-like pool area was very relaxing.The bedrooms were large and clean, with super nice en-suite bathrooms. The kitchen was a great central location to hang out. And don't get me started on the two lanais, one off the two downstairs bedrooms (more private) and the huge one upstairs off the kitchen with a full dining setup, a BBQ and a seating area which became where we spent the majority of our time.Oh, and my son used his spare time to learn how to play pool on the pool table. Future shark on our hands!The communication with the host was INCREDIBLE, before, during and after the visit.We will definitely look to return. Highly recommend!

The space was exactly what we were hoping for….spacious, beautiful, and so comfortable for our multigenerational family of 9!Being so close to the pool made swimming excursions so easy and taking walks and seeing the meticulously kept plantings was a pleasure!

We loved this. The only complain is that we did not get information for check-in three days before. We called your help number and we did get some of the check-in. Had to wait until 4pm exactly to get final codes and it did not work. Reminded me of the Nick Sabin commercial.
