This place is the very best. We set on the lanai everyday, watched turtles, drank coffee and soaked up the ocean views. The condo was furnished well and we found in our 17 day stay that we had all the amenities necessary to have a fabulous time. We walked on the beach and played in the ocean..We are arranging our schedule to book this condo again In 2025

My wife and I recently stayed six days at the property and hated to leave. When we stay at a property, the number one thing we’re looking for is that the property is as it was described, the location is as we expected, and it’s easy to get into the property.
This property met all those requirements and more! When we did have a question, the owner was super responsive and could either be contacted through the vacation app or her personal cell phone. The property owners also gave us some great recommendations on things to do when we were in town, and they were spot on.
We would return to this great property in a minute. The views are amazing every day and once you get the timing down, you can stand on your balcony and watch 10 or 15 turtles work the shallow areas of the bay. Just a couple of hundred yards down the street is a beautiful sandy beach, and once you do a little exploring there you’re sure to discover a perfect spot that either has some people around, or can make you feel like you’re all by yourself.
We would highly recommend this property.

Every thing in our Maui condo was wonderful except it was so hot. It had one small air conditioner that was in the living room on the floor, facing the sofa. The basic problem was that it would only run for 60 minutes and then cut off. When we would return for the day it would have been off all day and there would not be enough time to even cool the living room beside the two bedrooms. It would go off 60 minutes after we went to bed. Thank goodness there was a fam in both bedrooms even if they blew hot air. We loved the condo, the location and found everything we needed except cool air.

This is a quieter location, and the view is spectacular. I sat on the lanai and watched the sun rise and the turtles swim. The unit was clean and comfortable. We cook, and the kitchen worked out great. Robert was very responsive to our questions and addressed any issues. You have to drive about 20 minutes for swimming beaches, groceries, and restaurants. However, we could walk to the harbor, which has some eateries and where we took a snorkeling excursion. There was a convenience store and Starbucks right nearby. We were also close to the beautiful coastline drive up toward Lahaina.

We had a wonderful stay. Very grateful for the welcome package. This was a great place to stay, good location, we saw turtles from the balcony. The washer/ dryer came in very handy, parking spot was close, pool was clean, carts for loading and unloading came a great idea. We will stay again.

My family of 5 stayed in the condo for a week. Great location and condo for the value. Amazing views, with turtles swimming below our balcony daily and coming onto the beach at night. 15-20 mins to south beaches and 30 minutes to north beaches. Host was extremely fast and communicative. Overall, a great stay!

The condo was convenient to many locations being that it’s centrally located.
We are long time Lahaina and north travelers and enjoyed this new to us location.
The beach out front it pretty to look at but to rocky for swimming or beach access. The condo has a great water view and is well equipped to cook at home.
The beds are comfortable but not the common area furniture. Only one comfortable chair.
We liked everything except they told us just days before arrival that the pool would be closed 3 if our 7 days. Had we known this ahead of time we definitely wouldn’t have booked this condo. The pool tiles are chipped and in need of repair that wasn’t what they were fixing so beware of pool closures if your pool people.. also the pool is very small .

I’ve stayed in four condos in Maalaea and I will say that this one was by far the best. The double balcony with a great view was superb. It was just what we needed and wanted for our island getaway. The location is central so it’s easy to get over to nearby towns. We loved walking on the beach every morning.

The condo was more spacious than it seemed in the pictures. Loved having the washer/dryer. The views were relaxing and we enjoyed watching the turtles from our lanai. The cold filtered water was appreciated. The bed was comfortable and guaranteed parking was a plus. When I had a question about the property the owner was quick to respond. We had a pleasant stay.

Great communication from property management. Very easy check-in/check-out. Keyless entry to condo is super convenient. Condo is great & has a LOT of random stuff...beach stuff, sunscreen, after-sunscreen, seasonings, cooking oil, laundry soap/dryer sheets, water filter pitcher, and a TON of books/literature about Maui & things to do there. A LOT of Hawaiian-themed tchotchkes everywhere...possibly too many, as they take up space you might use to put your belongings, but they are cheerful & cute. The winds are crazy & blow right through from the entrance to the balcony...between the wind & ceiling fans, the unit was always comfortable. (The stairwell is across the hall from the condo & the door will bang LOUDLY if it's not closed tightly...) The pool is small, but was never busy. Lounge chairs are really nice...comfy. The grills are nice & worked great. The unit's assigned parking spot is easily seen from the balcony of the condo, which also has an amazing view of the water...we missed the whales, but saw dolphins playing on most mornings. Our only quasi-complaint is about the pillows...there are quite a few of them, but none are very great to sleep on. We definitely recommend this property as a great place to stay on Maui!

I had an incredible stay at this property. From start to finish, Robert was exceptionally responsive and accommodating, making the entire experience seamless. The property itself was nothing short of stunning, exceeding all expectations. Clean, well-maintained, and with all the amenities one could ask for, it truly felt like a home away from home. I can't recommend this property enough. Will definitely be returning.

Location is great! Walk to the Aquarium and mini golf. Lots of things to do at the harbor. Not too far from most places. The unit is really nice. The lanai is protected from the wind. Beds were comfortable, kitchen is well appointed and there are bbq’s to use by the pool. Host was responsive. I would stay there again!

When we arrived, we walked straight to the lanai. I had to catch my breath when I looked out over the water! It was perfect. Sea turtles swimming, waves, surf, and the Island breeze all caught me by surprise. This place was perfect in every way. Eve was a very gracious host who went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable (understatement). Sunrise from the lanai was stunning. We stayed five days- next time I will book ten! Just WOW! April 15 through 19.

I traveled solo and this was an excellent location for my needs. I’ve stayed in this complex three times, three different units. This unit 509 has unbeatable views from the lanai. I would recommend staying here.

It felt like we were at home, it was well equipped, all the essentials, lots of space. And most importantly the VIEW! You can't beat it... And it was walking distance from the ocean center and where we left for Molokini snorkeling. Highly recommend

With some updating and basic maintenance, this place would be have a much better first impression. A rusty fridge door is pretty ugly but worked well. Needs a lockable entrance screen door for air flow through the suite. The air conditioner sucks. A sharp knife. Shower is great. Bed is confortable, slept well. For the price expensive I expected more. The owners should stay here for a weekend. I am easily pleased so I would stay here again because I did like it.

Our stay was nice, the place was clean and welcoming. The bed has a topper that is extremely soft, so if you like a firm bed, definitely not a good fit for you! It was also located in a wind tunnel and had high winds, especially at night! It sounded like a hurricane outside the bedroom window. The views are beautiful and it's walking distance from shops, restaurants and the harbor for any water activities. I had to work at the schools in Lahaina and the drive was very easy to make in the morning, no traffic issues heading that way. Everything is very close and easy to get to from here.

Overall the location was great in the center of Maui near the Aquarium so easy to go anywhere you needed to go. The apartment was good for a small group. It had good ameneties for cooking there on site except for some basic supplies that would be helpful. Maybe having some basic cooking spices and some coffee filters and basics for that would have been nice. Overall a good place for a small group.

Many turtles below that are so fun to watch. Had a great time watching the whales too. So much whale activity when we were there. Bring your binoculars!! We ordered another pair when we were there.
Complex is pretty chill. You’ll mostly have the pool to yourself. The beach is a short walk away and it’s a 6 mile long beach. Felt very safe there too. They could use a regular coffee maker, we generally bring our own coffee. It could also use a coffee table and larger side tables.

We had a wonderful time staying at your place.
We got to see sea turtles and humpback whales from the balcony while enjoying delicious breakfast (thanks to fully equipped kitchen).
Located in a quiet neighbourhood made it a cozy homebase after a day of excursion.

Lovely condo with an excellent balcony view. Was pleased to see the beach chairs. The fridge was clean amd worked well
The ice tasted a bit funky, may need a filter change. Beds and pillows were very comfy
Separate bedrooms and bathrooms are a must . TV worked well and a good size.
I was surprised at the Separate $390 VRBO FEE on my CC , heads up!

We had a wonderful stay. I loved that it was away from the busy resorts. I the central location so that it was a short distance from the airport and Costco as well as different beaches we visited. We also could walk to the marina for the snorkeling excursion. The view from the balcony was the best feature. Stunning. This condo was mostly retired people. We didn’t see any children the whole week we were there. The pool is quite small and usually has older people relaxing in the water so we didn’t use it very much so that our kids didn’t disturb them. You can walk to a pretty decent beach which was great. We loved seeing the turtles and whales from our balcony. The shower in one of the bathrooms didn’t have very good pressure because it was also coming out of the spout at the bottom but I couldn’t seem to fix it so get more water out of the shower spout. Overall it was a great stay.

Overall the condo was nice and the view was nice.
Because bed was dirty it lead my mind to believe the condo was not properly cleaned. I washed all the sheets myself properly.

We were only able to stay overnight (needed a spot to sleep between arriving and sailing excursion at the harbor at 0-dark-hundred the next am). But we loved it!! So comfy. So many personal touches. The bed and pillows were so so so comfortable!! We were only there for 10 hours, but Eve checked in on us to make sure everything was great. I consider myself lucky, and this place was perfect!!! I’ve been to Maui many times - I would definitely stay here again (or anywhere that Eve hosts).

The place, itself, was okay. The problem was with the furnishings and supplies. The furniture is desperately in need of replacement. The cushions are very uncomfortable. It is painful to sit on them for any length of time. The dishwasher worked once and then it did not drain. We were in touch with the owner who, apparently came and repaired the problem. That lasted until the next wash. It stopped again. We had bought supplies for the dishwasher for naught!! We then had to purchase dish towels and soap to do the dishes for the rest of our stay. Not a big issue but not necessarily what we had planned on. We were there for a month and like to keep our place clean. There were no adequate supplies for this. Again, we had to purchase the supplies. BBQ was on site, again, no supplies. The cupboard doors were loose and almost fell off. We had to be very careful opening them. The lamp in the bedroom was very delicate, if you touched it, it fell apart. I, repeat, the place was okay, the furnishings cleaning supplies, and cupboards definitely distracted from our enjoyment of our stay. If these issues are addressed, it will be a delightful place for the next visitors.
We left a not for the owner to help in overcoming these issues.

Lisa's condo is amazing - beautifully updated and decorated and right on the water - perfect for whale watching and relaxing. We had two couples and the layout of the condo was great. There is a small beach down to the side of the condos that had turtles nearly every day, and Sugar Beach is a short walk down the road for access. As a note, the Ma'alaea location is central to everything, but not necessarily close to anything - a car is definitely needed and you have to drive to get pretty much anywhere. Overall, a beautiful and quiet location - we would stay again in a minute!

I took my 15 year old on a hiking trip so we picked this condo to just sleep here. Nice, clean but tons of tiny flies all over but they would die fast and drop on the floor. The bedroom was perfectly located for us since there r no windows so it is like a dungeon and we were going to bed at 6 pm lol. The negative part if the very strange window that has zero sound barrier that goes to the hallway and it was very loud but nothing noise canceling headphones can’t fix. Check in check out and communication was above and beyond convenient fast, like literally can’t be better. Very impressive! We didn’t use the pool or bbq are. Pool tiny tiny. Ocean here u can’t swim in but u can see turtles!! Was awesome!! Most residents here were very nice sweet happy polite. Bed was comfortable, great plus.
Kitchen well equipped. I would highly recommend staying here as a base to explore this beautiful island.

The condo was clean and well equipped for our stay. We had beach chairs we could use as well as beach towels, ice packs and a cooler! The swimming pool on the property was clean and very well maintained with BBQ grills available for use. The condo had a great view of the pool and the ocean, and it was awesome to have breakfast on the patio and whale watch. Overall it was a very positive experience, with a nice public beach as well as the Aquarium, and a terrific restaurant and shopping all within easy walking distance. The evenings were quiet and we never really heard any noise from the neighbors. Would definitely consider staying here again.
