Really pleased with this condo. From the upgraded design to the comfortable bed and linens. It was the perfect place for our little family to stay at. So glad we chose this place and the resort itself had all the things that we needed. Would not hesitate to come back to this condo and this resort again.

This condo was perfect for our needs. We have 2 teenagers and it was really nice that they had their own space. The condo is in a prime location within the resort. It is on the 4th floor and is the 2nd unit from oceanfront. Great view of the beach and overlooks the pool that is more on the quiet side. The unit had brand new kitchen appliances, plenty of towels, beach chairs and a cooler. The building itself could use a face lift- new carpet, fresh paint, minor repairs. But overall, we loved staying here and would do so again!
BONUS: The resort is located just north of Whaler's Village, just a 5 minute drive away. There is a food truck area less than a 5 minute walk away. Make sure to go to Slappy Cakes for breakfast in the shopping center across the street from the food trucks.

We loved this vacation rental! Having two bedrooms is a must with teens. We were also on the ground floor which made it very accessible to the pools and beach. You can eat outside and see the ocean which was great. The resort itself was also very nice with two pools and hot tubs. The beach is right there and so close to walk back to

We always stay in the Honokawai/Kanaapali area because our daughter lives nearby. This was a new place for us and worked really well. Though there is not a lot of tourist activity in West Maui, we were able to find food trucks, a few shops and more importantly to us, take part in the commemorative events for the 2023 Lahaina Fire. The condo was clean and nicely updated and we felt comfortable right away. Could have used with a few more kitchen items: baking sheet, rubber spatula, measuring cups/spoons… We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will look for a “special” here again soon!

We were very pleased with the communication of the owner, condition and cleanliness of the condo and the extra amenities provided. There were plenty of beach chairs, coolers, pool floats, etc in the closet that were very useful during our stay. The wagon was a life saver on many occasions, getting chairs, groceries, etc up and down.
The location of the condo was perfect to sit and enjoy the ocean view and sunset from the lanai each night.
The kitchen was stocked with enough to make cooking a few meals in. We utilized the barbecue grills as well down past the tennis courts.
We would definitely stay here again! Thank you again!!

My wife and I stayed here for part of our honeymoon and had a fantastic time. The proximity to the beach, pool, and bar cannot be beat, and the unit was incredibly homey and well stocked. Also, Arthur provided us with answers to any and all questions and made the check in process very smooth. We hope to be back in the not too distant future!

The view and the beach were perfect. Easy check in process. The condo was lovely- had everything we needed. The only issue we had was that we noticed an odor when we would come back to the room each day- my husband thought it was just because it was an older property. It never bothered us while we were there - just when we would first walk in.

The host was very communicative and prompt in addressing any questions. The unit we were allocated had awesome ocean views and steps away from the beach. The kids had a blast in the pools. The service staff was also very prompt and took care of things immediately. Definitely will not hesitate to stay here again.

We really enjoyed our stay at Maui Shores. The condo is nicely decorated with beach decor and very clean.
It was great to have two bathrooms, which had been updated.
The condo had all the amenities we needed. We relaxed at the pool or on the beach. The communication with the owner was excellent and check-in process went smoothly. We had a great time seeing and doing many activities on the island. We will definitely come back again!

This was my family's 4th stay in Ka'anapali, but our first time at this location. The property is fantastic with great pools, access to beach, on-site convenience shops, ample parking as well as being close to local restaurants, shops, grocery and activities. However, the unit is need of repair. While the basics were satisfactory (appliances, linens) there were many basic updates that are needed including painting, toilet in bath flushes by pulling up on the handle, low cold water pressure in bathroom sink, master bath door doesn't stay closed, lanai furniture is in poor shape, lanai doors stick, washer/dryer is very old. On our last day there, we noted a roach in the elevator and 2 bugs in our unit. Had this happened earlier in our stay, I may have lodged a complaint. That said, I tried to consider this a place to sleep and shower while enjoying everything the island has to offer.

Beautiful condo wth beautiful surroundings and amenities. 2 beautiful pools, beach access and a restaurant. Will definitely return.

The best part of this property is that it is literally steps away from both the beach and the pools! The design, furniture and amenities were top notch and the beach equipment provided was a plus. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this property to others. Thank you for hosting us!

My family and I absolutely loved this resort and the room. The condo was perfectly cleaned and had everything we needed to make several meals. The bed was extremely comfortable, I have never slept so well on vacation. The resort itself was amazing. We enjoyed the pools and played many games of pickleball on the courts.

Best part is the great central location, close to key beaches, restaurants, shopping areas. The unit itself is incredibly dirty and run down. It looks like it has not been cleaned, disinfected or refreshed in a decade. Everything smells. Visible dirt on the walls, doors, door handles, counter tops, carpet. Visible wall damage. Appliances are low-quality and flimsy. Only 2 of the burners worked well. Chipped dishes and bowls. Description notes housekeeping, although housekeeping is definitely not included and comes at an extra charge.

The place looks great, modern design: furniture was clean; bed was comfortable; linens are nice and soft. The pull out sofa is not very comfortable though, the mattress was thin and you could feel the springs through the mattress. Otherwise the place was great for a family of 4.

My family stayed in this unit for 2weeks. It was just as the listing described. Very clean unit with full amenities. The unit was well equipped with snorkel gear, beach chairs, and sand toys. The A/C worked great and the bathroom was large enough, having two sinks, a tub, and shower. The unit is steps from both pools, restaurant (which is on property) and the beach. The unit is on ground floor which was very convenient with a large lanai and grass area. It was great waking up every morning, having a coffee and enjoying the sunrise. The owner was very accommodating and was quick to respond to any questions we had. We would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend this unit.

We loved our stay! Our third trip to Maui and certainly not our last. Very conveniently located on the west side of the island. We spent most of our days swimming and snorkeling. Great food options nearby. Less than an hour drive to get to Kihei or other places around the island too. We had a wonderful honeymoon staying here!

Overall our stay was great, we enjoyed the location and the condo was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the garden and ocean view! We stayed at this hotel 23 years ago and were glad to stay here again. The only snag was not receiving the check in instructions beforehand and so we checin like we would normally do at the hotel. They did nit have our info since the reseywss not made directly with them. A quick call to the property management office solved it and I received the email. One small thing is the door code required a # sign which was not indicated so it just took a little more time to get in.

We have stayed at this resort for the last 5 years and we keep coming back for the location, views, value, and the happy hour! Several great restaurants in walking distance, easy to get to great beaches and shopping. This unit is the first studio we’ve stayed in and it was conveniently located steps from the elevator. tastefully decorated, plenty of towels, dishes, etc. the only thing we would change is the bed. Extremely uncomfortable, like sleeping on a marshmallow , but you’re in paradise so it balances out.

The grounds were spectacular: Pool area was wonderful, beach area is nice…. A short walk to the south and you reach a much more expansive beach. The view from the room was perfect, you could see whales constantly.
The condo was your typical rental. Absolutely nothing wrong with it at all. Beds were very comfortable and everyone slept well. The kitchen was nice, however it lacked utensils for cooking, and the pots and pans are sub par- they could prob use replacing, there was plenty of Tupperware lids but no containers.
Each bathroom was stocked with towels, shamp/cond body wash etc.
We spilled some cereal the first morning and when I cleaned it up it appeared the floor had not been cleaned in quite some time, so that was a bit disconcerting.
Previous guests have left coolers, boogie boards, umbrellas, and we added to the pile with pool floaties, unit also has 4 Tommy Bahama chairs.
All in all a good stay!

This was our first time in Maui. We had a great ocean view. We were able to use the beach in front of the property as well as within a close drive to other beaches, places to eat, and shopping. Great pool and restaraunt and bar on site.

Overall the place is quite nice. We did run into a few cockroaches but I believe this is common in Hawaii. The place was clean. A little dated but cozy. Kitchen could have used a few items such as tongs as we did cook a fair amount. The TV was a bit difficult at times. The TV and box don’t sync up well together and was a bit frustrating at times.
The place in general is very good, we would return and recommend staying here.

The condo was clean and quiet! Furnishings seemed to be new. Beds were very comfortable and ocean view from the lanai was very nice!
I had lost instructions on getting into the condo but owner resent email to me right away!
Some confusion with door keys as there was supposed to be 2 keys on kitchen counter. Cleaning company called me next day to let me know where the key was but there was only one key, not two.
We had a wonderful week celebrating our granddaughter's graduation and we would definitely stay here again!
July 2024
This was perfect for our family of five. It has the best location with the best view we’ve ever had- complete ocean view and the perfect little kitchen to cook breakfast and lunch and super close to go shopping or buy a few essentials. We would definitely stay here again!

We had a fantastic stay at Kaanapali Shores! Robert was always quick to help with answers to my many questions. The location of this resort is great for those who want to eat and shop locally while on Maui. The 2 pools and beach are just steps from the condo. We will definitely stay here again on our next visit to paradise!
Aloha and Mahalo!

Positives: Great beach location. Every room has some type of little to big ocean view. Outside grounds are kept well. Towel access was easy. Two pools.
Challenges: Checked in at 4pm on a Friday, July 5th and just wanted to get to our room and the room was delayed being ready for about 3 hours. They did give us 5 free drinks, but kids wanted to hit the pool and we wanted to drop off our bags and shower. The garden kids pool was nice but on Friday & Saturday July 5-6th the pool was horrific!!! Smellled, black with dirt, cloudy beyond belief, hair floating, and looked like a black bottom pool. They finally cleaned it on Sunday, July 7th and Monday, July 8th, but it was still cloudy. They need a new chlorine filter system and better pool service. The garden pool is not big enough if the hotel is full. The beds were horrible! Lopsided springing awful. Couch was more comfortable. Ice maker did not work. Called for service for it that never came. No ice makers in the entire hotel!!! Awful!! Hotel operator could barely speak any English. Staffing for the hotel appears bad with qualify of some staff. A lot of older to very old, limiping, to heavy set staff that can barely move. Very little younger staff seen and we stayed Friday to Monday.
Overall: decent timeshare price for being close to the beach, having a pool(s), & room with a semi to full ocean view. We may or may not stay here again. This is the third place we have stayed in Kaanapali. Ranking #3 of 3. Just, okay not great.

This unit is everything! Well stocked with all the amenities and Arthur was also super quick with responses.
We really loved the ground floor steps away from the beach, pool, dining (food trucks too!) supermarket, and parking. The easy live music at the pool was a bonus to hear from the patio or during an afternoon swim. We loved to watch the sunset every evening and looked forward to walking the boardwalk every morning along the beach.
This was my 10th trip to the islands and have been fortunate to stay at some of the luxury mega resorts, however we really much preferred the smaller feel of Kaanapali Shores and how centrally located this unit was to all the amenities that we love! Not spending a lot of time to walk to the beach, car, restaurant etc was certainly delightful! We definitely hope to return soon for another stay in this unit:) Mahalo
