What Do Guests Think? An Analysis of 1000 Guest Reviews


Reviewer Portrait

The following executive summary is based on a comprehensive and impartial AI analysis of guest reviews. Keep in mind that all units are individually owned, and review scores among units can vary considerably.

Kahana Sunset delivers a laid‑back, old‑Hawaii vibe on West Maui, set on a small cove between Napili and Kaanapali. Guests consistently praise its peaceful, uncrowded feel, beautifully kept tropical grounds (fruit trees, herb garden), warm pool plus kiddie pool, plentiful loungers, communal BBQs, and postcard sunsets. Many highlight daily turtle sightings right off the rocks and seasonal whale watching from the lawns and lanais. The location is convenient to Napili Market, coffee and casual restaurants, and a short drive to excellent beaches and snorkeling at Napili, Kapalua and Honolua.

Condos are spacious and well suited to families and multi‑gen groups, with two lanais, full kitchens, in‑unit laundry, and easy parking near the door. Many units are updated, very clean, and well stocked for cooking; some provide beach gear, coolers and games. Several have effective air conditioning (often in bedrooms and sometimes the living area), while others rely on ocean breezes and fans. Guests frequently note friendly, attentive grounds staff and generally smooth, communicative hosting and check‑in.

Set expectations: this is an older, low‑rise complex with unit‑to‑unit variability. Some condos feel dated or show wear, and occasional maintenance, cleanliness or pest hiccups do occur; responsiveness varies by manager. Most layouts are two‑story with bedrooms upstairs and often no bathroom on the main level, and there are many stairs around the property; parking can be tight. There’s no hot tub and the pool closes early. The biggest recurring caveat is the beach: it’s small and highly tide/season dependent—sometimes sandy and swimmable, other times narrow or rough, so plan on driving a few minutes to larger beaches if conditions aren’t ideal. When calm, snorkeling in the cove can be excellent with frequent turtle encounters.

Nice property in great condition, in a quieter area. Close to amenities and activities. Only issue was no beach. Loved our stay and would absolutely return!

Amazing place! The condo has everything you'd want and the grounds were immaculate. The pool was wonderful, a cute little beach, the grills were spotless and in excellent condition. The beds were comfortable, the kitchen has all the tools you need. Sunsets!

We loved this place despite the apparent struggles this complex Is having with their sea walls. While the complex itself shows signs of wear and tear the place really is charming! The pool is small but clean and lovely. The views and sunsets from this condo are outstanding. Some things need attention though. The stairway rugs need to be deep cleaned as they are quite worn and stained. The shower doors do not close properly so quite a bit of water leaks out onto the floor. The bathroom sink drains very slowly. Even though these need to be addressed we would definitely stay here again. The place is roomy, well decorated, comfortable beds, well equipped kitchen, two large beautiful balconies overlooking the ocean, lawn and pool. It’s also close to the bus stop if you don’t rent a car.

We very much enjoyed our stay. The view was beautiful and the kids enjoyed the pool. The kitchen was extremely understocked-especially with plates and bowls which was disappointing. Despite this, we would return!

dirty carpet stairs and glass wall in master bath; lack of dining table light; squishy, squeaky mattress; lack of kitchen utensils (spaghetti fork, rubber scraper), mold in closet above kitchen sink; light/fan issues in second bedroom; boogie boards appreciated but would have rather had low beach sitting chairs, pool too small for adults; scary erosion of lawn; view was great!

The condo was perfect for our family of 7. We loved the pool and the two decks overlooking the pool and ocean. We enjoyed how quiet it was. We liked that we were in walking distance to Napili Market and Boss Frog's. The host John was quick to answer our questions which we really appreciated. We had requested a cot but did not actually need one as the fold out sofa bed was big enough for two people. The different levels of property management were a little confusing, but despite that we heartily give the condo 5 stars.

January 2026

The location and property were great! Beautiful view. The host was not communicative, especially when we were lost getting there. The listing has an incorrect address and we didn’t hear back when reaching out for help. A window in the second bedroom was broken and the AC was very difficult to utilize. Overall, clean and beautiful spot but wish the host had been more helpful.

We had a wonderful stay at this amazing unit. The view was incredible from the living room level and the master bedroom level. Kitchen and bathroom appeared to be recently remodeled with new appliances. The in-suite washer and dryer were really convenient. The car port was right next to main entry so it was easy to unload and load the luggage. There were plenty of towels in great condition and quality. The chargers for phone and/or camera were quite convenient. We had a great time playing with various board games and the record player was quite memorable -- I've never seen one before except in movies. Playing Ed Sheeran on a record was amazing. It reminded me how much we've relied on digital technology and all the time wasted on internet and social media. This was a place to put all that away for a brief moment. Jenn was an amazing host and she was readily available via text. The property grounds were well maintained. Trash and recycle bins were emptied in the common area. We didn't get to use the beach due to the winter high tides, but it would have been a wonderful place to build sand castles and snorkel.Thank you for a wonderful memory in Maui.

We had a great stay! Beds were comfortable, excellent AC and water pressure, and the beach gear was so handy. The My Perfect Stays team was very attentive to texts and needs. I wish it was a little more updated and could use a real deep clean, but it fills all our needs for a vacation spot in Maui! Kahana Sunset is a cute little community with BBQ, pools and beachfront spots. Great location close to Napili and Ka'anapali! Would recommend to anyone.

The location was great, it was central to many places and it was a quiet neighborhood. The views each morning were beautiful and it was wonderful falling asleep to the sound of the ocean. We were even able to see whales from our top balcony. The condo was nice and clean and the host was very responsive. The kitchen wasn’t fully stocked though for a family of 7, which is the occupancy. It was missing enough utensils for everyone and some other key items, like pot holders, if you planned to cook to cook meals in the condo like we did. The viewing area of the bay offered beautiful views and the pool was very nice. At the time of year we stayed (December) the beach was inaccessible. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and found it very comfortable and roomy for a family of seven.

Host was welcoming. The condo had a strange smell to it when we arrived. Hardly any toiletries ( paper) in the unit. Beach chairs were old and ripped. Unit has a good supply of kitchen utensils ect. It was clean. Could be cleaner in the bathrooms. Some of the plug in outlets did not really work well. Just seems as though the owner may need to come and look into some small items to be updated. Tv was very slow to turn on. The complex itself was very nice and clean. Quiet.

The facility and room was very clean and had everything we needed to make the stay comfortable and successful. While we know that there were a lot of people staying there too, it felt like we had the whole place to ourselves. It was great!

We have stayed at the Kahana Sunset many times. The beach is mostly gone but the pool and grounds are still incredible. Unit C3 has a wonderful view. We love to pick up seafood at a nearby market and grill seaside in the reading area. The Hula Hideaway folk were great to work with.

Kahana Sunset c3 is a great value. The complex is quiet and well-maintained with ocean access and decent swimming and snorkeling opportunities. The 2-story, 2-bed, 2-bath condo is clean, spacious, and stocked with beach and ocean equipment. The air conditioning splits in both bedrooms and the main living area are a great amenity!The complex is a short drive from great food options like Miso Phat and The Gazebo, and several grocery stores are within a short drive. I saw some people walking to Kahana, but I would recommend driving due to the lack of sidewalks. The complex has a mix of 1-bed and multi-bed units. There are 4 grills available for residents and tenants and there is a dedicated parking space right outside the front door of the condo.The sea wall provides an unobstructed sunset view and you can see Molokai and Lanai from there too. There is a small, but very clean pool, and plenty of space to throw a football around.The property management company is responsive and we have very few issues, most of which we dealt with on our own. Be advised, there are a lot of steps, so this is not great for less-mobile people, but I recommend the condo for families and couples who want a more affordable and chill location than the Ka’anapali resorts.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a wonderful stay under the warm Hawaiian sun. The condo itself was lovely, very clean, and well equipped, with two balconies offering stunning views. The beds were comfortable, and the entire place felt quiet and relaxing — perfect for unwinding.We did experience an issue with the air conditioning, but as soon as we called, a technician arrived within 30 minutes. He completed the necessary maintenance and solved the problem in less than three hours. After that, the AC worked perfectly for the rest of our stay, which we truly appreciated.The kitchen had most of what we needed, but a few basic essentials were missing, such as salt and pepper, cooking oil, aluminum foil, and maybe a small cooler bag. We also noticed there were only four forks available. None of these were major issues, but adding these small items would make the experience even better for future guests.Overall, we had an excellent stay and truly enjoyed our time here. We would definitely come back without hesitation.

The unit needs hot pads and tupperware containers and foil...kitchen could of had a little more option in it.

Excellent condo. Grounds were beautiful, great location. The beach was unusable while we were there in November due to strong angry ocean. However,we knew that was a possibility when we booked so it did not affect our trip. We would definitely book again

We had a wonderful 10 day stay at Kahana Sunset. The unit was just as pictured. We loved the pool and kiddie pool in the complex and we were often the only ones there. There is a water filling station by the pool which is a nice touch. Parking right outside the door cannot be beat. Beds were comfortable, all amenities were provided including some great beach gear. This was our first stay in the Napili area and we will definitely be back. Hopefully for another stay in this unit! Thank you for a wonderful trip.

The location was great, with beautiful view of the ocean, the property dose have beach access, but sea is pretty rough where the propertt is so excercise caution if you're planning to use the beach. The pool , bbq and amenities were top notch and well maintained. The host was very friendly and easy to contact. Lots of things to do near the property. The apartment was a little dated, but it was comfortable and had all the amenities we needed for a great vacation!

Beautiful grounds, loved that is was away from all of the hustle and bustle. The beach was not usable during our trip however, we knew that prior to booking so it did not affect us in any way whatsoever! Beautiful pool and tons of beaches close by.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had an amazing stay at this rental! Perfect for 2 couples on a friend trip as the bedrooms are separated and both have their own bathrooms. We loved the location, lovely beaches nearby and amazing food! Very peaceful spot, away from large resorts/buildings. Would definitely stay again!

Peaceful vacation in paradise! We absolutely loved this property located right on the ocean with a private beach steps from your condo. The condo was stocked with everything we needed and the beach chairs were a nice touch. We will definitely book this condo next year! The beautiful grounds were a bonus with papayas, bananas and even an herb garden. The snorkeling is great a few yards from the beach and we had daily swims with the turtles in front of the property.

My family and I had a wonderful stay at E11 in Kahana Sunset. We loved spending time on the lanais in the evening and the views of the ocean (and the pool) were great! Everything was clean and well-appointed and the AC units in the bedrooms were essential for a comfortable night's sleep. The team was very responsive to communications and the neighborhood was perfect. We'll be back for sure!

Kahana Sunset never disappoints! Property manager responded quickly and communicated effectively. The location of this condo community couldn’t be better, the access to the pool and beach was perfect.

This was a third visit to the beautiful place. We enjoy the secluded complex away from all the hustle and bustle of the larger resorts. Lynn's unit is beautifully furnished with everything you would expect to find in your own home. Lynn provides an extensive list of local restaurants, shops and activities which makes planning easy. The oceanfront corner unit is quiet and private... no better place to watch turtle, whales and capture the fabulous sunsets.
Trish B.
October 2025

Nice unit in great location. Everything was fine except for the musty, rank odor in the unit. We can’t recommend staying here unless the carpet in the bedroom is replaced with a tile or LVP. Management claimed they could not smell anything. We did not want to waste any more of our limited time on Maui so we stayed put and made the most of it. The management company was very responsive otherwise and addressed other issues very quickly.

We came in for a family wedding. When we arrived 4 hrs after check in - we were happy to walk into a cozy place for the next 4 nights. Host was very attentive in communicating quickly and efficiently. AC was a godsend! Everything you need for the pool is available for use. Kitchen was equipped with everything you need.

It was very nice place. It lacked a lot of extras. Noticing for the beach. We bought chairs and left them at the property. Kitchen was not well stocked with every day items. No laundry basket. The front desk was able to provide one for us. Need new screens on the guest bedroom and front door. Was repaired same day. The window in the guest bedroom did not close all the way. Geckos 🦎 kept coming in the room. Main bedroom shower door never did close all the way. Was off the track. We will be back but will not rent that condo again. Thank you

The view of the ocean was so smazing. We could see turtles swimming and surfacing for air. Every evening we enjoyed watching the sunset with the island as a backdrop. The rainbows were also lovely. Last year when we stayed her we saw a moonbow-magical.

October 2025

Enjoyed the location and ease of the location of the condo. The check-in was seamless. The condo had a small beach front which we enjoyed. The only draw back was it is the second line of condos so you are not directly on the beach front. But would highly recommend this place.
