Some of the best unobstructed views you’ll get on Maui! We saw so many turtles and whales right from our lanai. Sunrise and sunset were so beautiful. Property is clean and as described. Area is quiet, conveniently located and accessible to other popular areas. We stayed here as a family of 3 and my sister and loved it. We would definitely book here again next time we come to the island.

The location was good. I would say really look at the pictures on line. We had no place to eat our meals. The two bar stools they had one was broken. For the charge of cleaning it should have been cleaner.

We spent a lot of time on the balconies. The trees blocked the view some but it was still beautiful.The length of time of the construction was a little deceiving. Because of the holidays we couldn’t get to the other side of the property where the turtle beach was because the construction company had it blocked off. We couldn’t get anybody to open up the gate on the north which gave us the only access to the turtle beach. That little beach was one of the selling points.We had problems with flooding of the living room air-conditioning three times. It might be something you really need to look into. The only suggestions I would have is bath mats and better outdoor chairs for the beach. One side of the bed didn’t go up and down, and we couldn’t figure out how to turn off the fan.The two bedrooms and bathrooms were perfect for us.

We were traveling with our 20 yo son and we were so glad he had his own bedroom/bathroom. The apartment was spacious and the balcony was a wonderful place to sip morning coffee. The place had all of the amenities we needed and more. We did a whale watch and a snorkel tour and it was wonderful to be able to leave everything at the condo, including our car, and just walk to the docks. This was the first place we saw turtles swimming (in front of the condos on the right as you face the water. And not far away is a public place to get in if you want to snorkel. There is no beach - but there is a pool which we didn't have time to use. Great clean spot. We'd stay there again. While there are other people, it was nice for us that we were in a less populated area.

Everything is as advertised for this beautiful condo. The view is beyond words. Robert replied to all my questions quickly. Just 15 minutes from the airport, its location is perfect to easily access all areas of the island.

We stayed for 9 nights and the view was very spectacular and beautiful. The house wasn't clean and dust was in every stuff (living room, bedroom, etc) and in the kitchen floor. The worst part was having small cockroaches moving around on the cabinets, drawers, counter, and in the bathroom floor. Every time, I wanted to grab cups, spoons and etc saw small cockroaches and we had to wash utensil before using them. I let the manager knew and they just place some bait in the kitchen but it didn't work and we saw those cockroaches until the last day of the stay. Additionally, The bathtub stopper wasn't hold the water in the bathtub and we let them know and didn't fix it and seemed didn't care.

Excellent view and plenty of room for family of 5 with young adult children. Well stocked with beach towels, chairs and an umbrella. View is amazing. Loved family dinners on the deck and spotting turtles and whales in the harbor. No real beach here but we felt close to several beaches and the other adventures (hiking, snorkeling and surfing) that we came for. Very responsive host.

We had a great time here! It’s the perfect vicinity to nice beaches and restaurants while also being away from the bustle. It was so nice to have the beach chairs and lanai access.

Overall, great. Only problems were the kitchen faucet is a leaky piece of crap. The glass louvers in the bedroom window do not seal and the wind whistles through them all night at a high volume. We were very happy with our stay otherwise.

The location is excellent, and the views are amazing. The host was easy to work with, and the trip was amazing. The AC unit is pretty loud, but we were able to open the windows after the first day, so we didn't need it.

This was the perfect location for us to get to all parts of the island to enjoy hikes and beaches. Very central and close enough to major areas for eating and shopping. The harbor is an easy walk with shops and restaurants as well. The unit itself is well appointed and clean. We were just two adults, so it was very spacious for us. We loved sitting on the balcony in the evenings and listening to the waves. The sunrise in the morning was the perfect way to start the day, and we spotted turtles several times. The host was very responsive and very helpful. I want to return during whale season!!

Property was clean and relaxing. Needed a/c and had it which was a plus. Property owner was easy to reach and very kind and accommodating.

This condo has an amazing view. You feel as if you are on a boat. The wind was wild at times, but I love the wind, and you never need to turn the air conditioning on. The one thing g that could have made it more convenient was a shopping cart for groceries going up the elevator. It is quite a task to take up a lot of groceries. Thanks for the stay in your wonderful condo.

This spot was cool
Because I had an ocean view and if you look down from the balcony there are sea turtles all along the wall eating. You see them on the beach early mor infs sleeping, then around 3 they all come out along the sea wall and munch in whatever is there. The Ac in the bedroom was LOUD but I needed it so.. Location was great for me. Quiet and not a lot of people. I would stay here again.

We loved this location and the view was breathtaking! They do have beach chairs in the unit for use. I didnt realize that before we rented some. It had everything we needed while we stayed.

The only good thing about this property is the location. Very run down. Dishwasher is not attached to the cabinet. Mirror on the lanai is cracked and taped. Cone coffee filters for a non cone pot. The AC is totally inadequate-- the bedroom never cools off.

Oh my, we totally enjoyed this place & left the windows open the whole time. That ocean breeze matched the memorizing view. Very clean & had everything we required.

The place was clean and was easy to reach the property manager. The only downside was the slider needs new wheels. Other than that, the place was awesome, and we will try and rent it again.
From the balcony we could watch the Turtles in the water every day.

The condo was very clean and well equipped. It is too close to the sewage treatment plant so you cannot go out in the ocean. It’s a very central location to everything on the island so travelling is easy. Overall it’s a great place to stay.

The location and views were excellent, couldn't ask for anything more. The condo was small but nice. Very little room in the bathroom but we managed. The biggest issue we had was the extreme heat in the bedroom. The a/c unit is in the living area and is too small to cool the unit. The best we could get in the living area was high 70's and the bedroom was in the high 80's. We had fans going to try and cool the bedroom but there was little relief. The rental agency tried installing a portable a/c in the bedroom but it was installed improperly and water was flooding the unit below us so we were forced to shut it off. We spoke with other guests who expressed similar issues, some even trying to sleep in the living room because of the unbearable heat in the bedrooms. I would not stay there again.
To be fair, the rental agency did give us a minimal reduction in the cost but it was not enough to compensate for the lack of comfort we experienced.

The property was centrally located. We had easy access to wherever we wanted to go. The scenery from the lanai was fabulous. We would stay again.

It was excellent. Clean and comfy. Excellent response from property management. We had 2 minor issues and they were resolved promptly. The one issue that needs to be resolved is a larger ac unit. It is inadveryinadequate.

Convenient location only 15 minutes from the airport and 15 minutes from Kihei. Staying at this location does mean you're dependent on a car though as the ocean in front of the building is not swimmable.

Property is right on ocean! Great sunsets, sea turtles. Located in a great area to do day trips in any direction, or beach time from property. Owner very responsive and attentive to making the stay fantastic and enjoyable. Thanks Robert and Christy!

Amazing views. Perfect getaway. Location is central to almost everything we did around the island (Kapalua, Road to Hanna, restaurants).

Overall I liked the property. There were a few issues with cleanliness ( stain on towel/ sheet/ strange smell in some rooms) but overall space was great for a family of 5. Other than minor issues, it was extremely windy part of the island. May be it was just that time of visiting?
Would recommend with above caveats

Everything was great except air conditioning. There is a small window air conditioner in the living room which was inadequate to even cool that room let alone the other rooms. We turned it off since it was noisy and useless. Keep the front door open and the unit gets a great breeze going through. The view from the balcony is spectacular and makes it all worth it! Our host was very helpful. Thanks for a great stay.

We had a great stay. Bed and hide a bed could use an upgrade. More bugs than we were prepared for by the water. We have stayed on Maui many times, but only twice by the water which I think brings more fellas into the condo. The Condo otherwise was great, a nice pool, close to a nice restaurant and shopping. Very centrally located to a lot of stuff. We would rent again, no doubt.

Lovely condo, views were amazing looks out across the bay at Haleakalā. Loved looking off the lanai to the sea turtles playing in the waves everyday. Easy walk to the Maui ocean center and the shops and restaurants at Maaleah harbor center. There are also a Starbucks and mini golf on walking distance. The condo was fully equipped with towels for the beach and bathing. Beach chairs and coolers were also available for a fun day at the beach also in walking distance to the unit. There were a couple of issues but nothing that was a deal breaker or warranted a lower rating. The trade winds were unusually strong during our stay so the bathroom exhaust fans constantly squeaked and banged, had to keep bathroom doors closed to lessen noise. The rolling shades did nothing to stop the morning sun so be prepared to rise early. The assigned parking spot is next to check in and the elevators, people would block or park in the spot. Very inconvenient. On site management apologized but there was very little they could do when they were closed and it was 10:00pm. Did call office each time but again they were closed so received no response until the next day.

We had an amazing time at Ma’alaea! The view from the condo is amazing and the sound of the crushing waves was spectacular.
This is one of the windiest locations on the island which helped keeping the condo cooled off. We loved the location, the set up and the amenities of the condo. We would stay there again.

Nice and clean condo. Beautiful ocean views. Central to all the activities we had planned. Easy access to condo and easy parking.
A couple things I’d like to mention.
The air conditioner is a small window unit at the front of the condo. The bedroom is in the back. It did get quite hot at night. We had to leave it on with a fan blowing toward the bedroom. To keep that room cool. July is hot in Hawaii. Other times of the year probably would not be an issue.
The mattress was very uncomfortable. It needs replacing. It has dips on each side. I personally feel a good night sleep is most important. This is a nice condo so was surprised with the condition of the mattress.
I still recommend this condo. If the mattress was replaced, I’d stay there again.

The condo was just as we expected, with everything we need from beach chairs to coolers to a well furnished kitchen. And there was more in Maalaea than we expected. Our only surprise was the wind coming down over the flat part of the island from Kahului (July).
