There were dead bugs upon arrival and they turned off the a/c which made the place smell really stale. Once we aired it out and cleaned, it was a nice place to stay. Perk of having a "private beach." Would probably stay again despite our initial welcome.

We had 11 of us in 3 condos! Four grandkids under 5 years old. The grounds were perfect for them, a great pool, small beach, grassy area to run around and a covered patio with tables near awesome grills that we ate at as a family 3/4 of the time. The view was great, we were able to watch sea turtles feed at the rock right off the patio. We will definitely be back!

Sweet little spot that was perfect. Both bedrooms air conditioned, living room is not but it’s an end unit so lots of windows and good breeze. The pool was warm, ocean a little cool and a small beach but the views are incredible.

The property was beautiful and was exactly as advertised. Our host Carol was terrific and always timely with her communication. We used the lanai nightly to enjoy the ocean views. The outdoor bbq grill area was so convenient and was a nice place to meet other guests.

We took our family of 6 and absolutely loved our stay for the week. There was plenty of space for our kids to hang out, great sleep accommodations, and an excellent location. We loved the pool and though the beach was quaint, our kids preferred to play there over hauling out to another beach most days. We even saw a few turtles swimming around near sunset. The condo had everything you needed for food prep though it might be nice to bring some spices and condiment packets for cooking. There’s also a Brita for water and bonus a fresh cold water dispenser for ease of filling up water bottles at the pool. We appreciated all of the baby gear for our 1 year old and tons of games, books and beach essentials. The only con and it’s not really one is that the A/C is on a timer and it clicks in your ear while sleeping but easily remedied with ear plugs just expect you may have to redial if you sleep more than 6 hours. Again we had a wakeful baby so it wasn’t terribly inconvenient. Overall, we’re so happy we stayed here over any resort or other location. It felt more like home. The grounds were beautiful, clean, and the residents seemed friendly. It was a good mix of older couples and young families so we felt cozy. Highly recommend staying at Kahana Sunset!

Propery and location was just what we were looking for. Saw turtles in the ocean right outside of our door every afternoon. The condo was very comfortable for the four of us. Would definitely stay here again.

Our stay was great. the unit is roomy and the beds comfy. I got the best sleep. I had my own lania and could see the ocean. The complex is a few mins to the best best. Restaurant and a small grocery store are close by. the pool is warm and there is a sandy beach just a couple of mins walking. beach chairs are available too. the only thing is there isn't enough outlets to charge devices but i thought there was an ext cord in the kitchen and there isn't a bathroom downstairs so I wouldn't suggest this would work for an elderly person. We didn't end up using the sofabed so I can't give opinion. It was a great stay and like I said, West Maui has excellent beaches , Eat at the Sea House and party at Dollies! Oh the parking is tight but we had a small car. just an FYI.

This is one of the absolute best VRBO properties we have ever stayed at. We were not lacking anything in our condo. There was even more provided than I would’ve expected. The property was quiet very well maintained. We’re talking about coming again next year and I would stay here again.

Relaxing and much needed experience with spectacular views!!

May 2025

We stayed for 7-nights in this gorgeous 2-story condo and absolutely loved every minute. This is our family's 3rd trip to Maui and by far, our favorite because our place was so nice to come "home" too after our daily excursions. The complex has private beach access, clean & well-kept grounds, friendly energy, lovely pool, a luscious garden full of green lizards, and an overall wonderful vibe. Sunsets are AMAZING here and Sunrises equally stunning and calming. Also, the experience of looking down onto the giant turtles is absolutely mesmorizing. We snorkled right off the beach and were able to rinse off our gear and sun gaze right there, we never wanted to leave! The interior of the condo is well-maintained, CLEAN with great furniture, comfortable beds. Air-conditioners worked GREAT and each room has a fan to keep the coolness circulating. The extended lanai shades are extra nice when it heats up pre-sunset. Plenty of modern and nice kitchen utensils to cook with and there is a community grill that was maintained by the groundskeeper crew. We had such a great time and look forward to returning soon!

This condo is comfortable, convenient and had everything we needed. We loved the access to the water, the shade trees and the pool access. It was quiet and was not packed. It has a private swim area which was a real treat. The deck's overlook the stunning water, and we had many sea turtle and whale sitings. We would definitely stay again.

This place was in an awesome location close to some primo snorkeling spots and also to grocery stores and restaurants. Everything was as advertised and more. Really impressed with how well stocked the kitchen was for self catering. Definitely exceeded expectations. Everything in good condition. We made use of the sofa bed and it was perfectly comfortable. Highly recommend this place for a family group.

I have been to Maui many times and have stayed at Kahana Sunset quite a bit. It's still one of my favorite vacation spots. Although, we had a glitch on our arrival day, things were resolved quickly, and we carried on with our 2-week trip. Lynn's condo has intrigued me for many years, and I was so excited to finally stay here. It did not disappoint! The first thing you see when you walk in is the unobstructed, magnificent view through the front sliding glass doors, it was like you were floating over the water! After I got over that, I noticed how nicely decorated, clean and well equipped the condo was. It had everything we needed and more. The beds were comfortable, and we really appreciated the shades and retractable awning over the lanai, especially as the day wore on and the sun heated things up. It was also nice to have AC units not only in the living room but the 2 bedrooms as well. The kitchen was well equipped, so we didn't need to supplement with anything.Something to make note of, is the beach is really no longer there, at least not for lounging on the sand, but the grassy area above is really nice and has lounge chairs. We swam and snorkeled in the bay but only when the tide was out. There are great swimming and snorkeling beaches close by though. There's a grocery store a moment away and the Napili Farmers Market was great for fresh produce and crafts. This is a special place, and we hope to be back sometime soon. Mahalo!

This condo was a perfect setup for a family of 5. It was super clean and had everything we needed. The kitchen was well stocked and we used the outdoor grills multiple times. There were beach chairs, toys and snorkel gear that we were not expecting. The pool was warm and very clean. The only downfall was that the tide was high and we weren’t able to use the beach at all. The location is great and an easy drive to other beaches in the area. Will definitely rent here again.

The condo and location were exactly what we were looking for as a family on vacation for spring break. The unit was clean, comfortable, and in a location that was easy to get to all things we wanted to enjoy in West Maui. Process was easy and communication was clear. We felt very much at home.
Jack G.
March 2025

The location was great. It was the 2nd part of our stay and we wish we could have stayed longer. It was located in the middle of all the activities we were taking part in. We didn’t cook dinner, but loved the kitchen for easy cost effective breakfast and to prepare beach snacks! There is a store right around the corner & food trucks down the road! Kids loved the pool. There was a swell in while we were there so the waves were crashing (at all beaches) so we did not swim out in the Ocean in front of the condo, but would have on a calmer day. The unit was not as updated as I thought based on the description, but it did not bother us. We were not there to wooed by fancy up-dates, we just wanted space for our family and that was perfect! The beds were so comfortable!!! That can make or break a vacation we would stay here again!

The property was beautiful. The bay had turtles and other sea creatures to enjoy. The view from the upper deck was wonderful and a great place to spot whales and enjoy a morning cup of coffee. Friendly staff.
Jewel S.
March 2025

The location of the condo was perfect we had beach access right out our back patio. The view and snorkeling were great! The unit was very clean and we cooked in there quite a bit. There are two things that would be great to add. Our unit seemed to be the only unit without downstairs curtains for the sliding door. At night this was a bit alarming as people heading to be beach or on the common area could see right in. It was really unsettling seeing as my niece was the one on the hide-a-bed. Second, more towels, wash rags, and hand towels. We only had two hand towels and three bathrooms. And there were 5 of us and only 5 full sized bath towels…not ideal with girls. So we were using beach towels and we had to do laundry more than we wanted for fresh towels.But we will definitely be back again because the condo was PERFECT! Thank you so much!

The ocean views at this property can’t be beat. The grounds were beautiful and sights from the lanai were amazing. The condo had plenty of room for our family of six. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Great location! Pool was great. Smaller beach at condo than expected but several beaches close by to go to. A coat of paint inside would do wonders. Well equipped, had all we needed. Maintenance in/on parking lot the day we checked out was VERY annoying and frustrating but didn’t know about it until the week before our trip and were already booked. Internet did not work at all during our stay. At all! That was a huge annoyance. TV in upper bedrooms worked but not the one in living room, due to internet. Would stay at Kahana Sunset again, but maybe a different unit.

Unit needs major rehab. Management was able to discount stay based on unit issues. Same issues noted in other’s reviews from prior years. Would verify laundry, furnishings issues were corrected before booking.
