My husband and I had a week vacation and were very glad to stay in this condo. It's comfortable and clean, had everything we needed. We cooked our meals, and the kitchen was well supplied.
The location is outstanding: it's right on the beach, quiet and secluded. Two beach walking paths are stretching to both sides, and people were taking their morning coffee while walking along the water. Nice and tranquil.
There are shopping centers in walking distance, but the place is secluded from crowds.
The communication with the host was excellent. Thank you!
It was a great trip.

There are a lot of places advertising oceanfront, but after walking many miles of Kihei beaches, this complex is unique - it may be the only condo that I would say is truly right on the beach.
The unit is stocked with beach chairs, umbrella, and beach towels, and you are only carrying them a few yards to get to the sand. Kam 1 seems slightly less crowded than 2 and 3 (hard to define where Charley Young and Kam differentiate). I didn’t think this was much of a snorkeling beach, mainly because it was a little rough water around the rocks while we were there, but we did see turtles pretty much whenever we wanted, and I even had a big one run into me while I was out bobbing in the waves!
The unit itself is exceptionally clean and stocked with everything you need. It’s not huge, but perfect for our family of 4. I’ve mainly stayed in resorts in Hawaii, but this is the first place where I didn’t see a single insect in the room. Bedroom 2 is pretty small and the bathrooms aren’t big, but the 3-head shower in the main bath is awesome.
I love the location - walking distance to pretty much anything you might want to eat (I recommend the Food Truck Oasis at South Maui Gardens about a 10 minute walk away).
The only negative is the parking is tight. We had a larger SUV that required a little backing in and out every time we were coming or going, but pretty hard to complain about parking 20 feet from your room.
We plan on this as our go-to for any future Maui visits!

the condo was exactly what we wanted although AC was not working in upstairs bedroom, everything else was perfect. Great views and beach. Weather was very pleasant.

A breezy, beach themed condo. Everything was just just lovely.

This condo is in such a great location. It is on Charley Young beach. No roads to cross, just walk straight out to the beach, or sit on the lanai to see the water (and the whales) and hear the surf.
The South Kihei location is also great for amenaties. Kihei Caffe is across the street, Dolphin's Mall is a block away with it's gelato. A grocery Store and the the restaurants of South Kihei are just north of the condo.
It also has great access to the other parts of the island with easy access to the Piilani Highway.
The condo was very comfortable for the 3 of us. Well stocked with all our needs from coffee cups to boogie boards. Communication with Tina was quick and easy via text.
We had a great week here, would recommend it and hopefully we will stay here again.

We absolutely loved our stay at this condo! As stated in the title, the location is fabulous. It really is a gem on Maui. The condo is clean and well stocked for all needs.
The only feedback we have (my mother-in-law) has is to have a bath mat for the downstairs tub/shower as she found it very slippery and hard to manage at 84.
We had a fabulous time and would return. Highly recommend.

We have stayed in this building several times. This is by far the best unit we’ve stayed in. It’s clearly been lovingly cared for. This should inspire guests to take care of it as well. As others have noted, this unit is supplied with many things that other rentals do not have which come in very handy. The location is the best on Maui. We didn’t want to leave. The owners were extremely helpful, responding quickly to our questions.

The condo was excellent. The 2 story windows onto the beach and the sunset gave amazing views. A wonderful beach is less than 100 feet away. It is close to town with its food trucks, shops and restaurants, but feels away from everything.

You won’t find a better place to stay in Kihei! A gorgeous unit steps from the beach, but still quiet and quite private. A beautiful view from the lanai, living room, dining room and master bedroom. The kitchen is well outfitted, and all of the rooms are decorated very tastefully. A fantastic stay, and the owner is very responsive. Great sunsets and the waves will lull you to sleep. I hope to return someday!

This condo is centrally located in Kihei. Shops and eateries are within walking distance. The condo is beachfront and has amazing views. Kimberly was helpful with booking and sent communication to us prior to our stay. Condo was clean and well stocked with the basics. We loved having access to beach chairs, umbrellas, beach towels, and boogie boards. Great snorkeling to the right of the condo. We were thrilled to have found this place!

My family had a great time staying at Kamaole One! It was the perfect location, very centralized on the island in Kihei. The downstairs bedroom and bathroom were perfect for my teenage daughter and her friend. The bathroom upstairs was a little tight, but my husband and I made due. Also, changing clothes was sometimes a challenge - forgetting to close the top blinds!
I think we only used the beach out front a 2-3 times, but we loved sitting on the lanai drinking our coffee and playing games with the view.
The condo had what we needed for the week, except the snorkel gear probably needs to be replaced. We couldn't find a complete set for an adult. But, renting for about $10/day down the block was not a problem. The only hiccup we had was connecting to the internet, but Sharon was very responsive and got us all set up in no time.
Would consider staying here again when we go back to Maui.

The access to the calm and beautiful beach was unbeatable. In addition, the balcony overlooking the nearby beach was shaded by a beautiful old growth tree. If we weren’t on the beach, we were reading under the shade of the tree on the balcony. Heaven. Took our college age kids and had a blast on Maui.

Couldn’t have asked for a nicer place to stay with my wife and 2 daughters. Direct beach access with incredible sunset views every evening. Great restaurants are within walking distance as well as an ABC store to grab anything you need. The property was super clean and quiet. It was stocked with everything we could have needed for a 6 day stay. Can’t recommend this place enough and will be back again in the future.

We have stayed multiple places on Maui and in Kihei and this one takes the cake. The first thing we noticed (besides the breathtaking views) is that it was more stocked than any rental we've ever stayed at anywhere in the world. Maybe it was good timing from the previous renters, but there was plenty of sunscreen, condiments, and even some beer. There were so many beach supplies too (chairs, umbrella, snorkels, fins, toys, etc.). The AC worked better than other Hawaii rentals we've stayed at, and the electronic shades gave privacy with still being able to view the ocean. The kitchen is modern with a dishwasher, trash compactor, and a huge fridge. Sharon was communicative, check-in/out was a breeze, parking was easy, and the beach is so close. Highly recommend!

Location is the best on the beach. But rent from a different owner. Sharon has no concern for her guests, only how things affect her. She lied to us about the AC (it is a swamp cooler downstairs) and thought we couldn't read directions when cable & internet were dead on our arrival. Took over 24 hours to hear from her that she's sending the PM, who read the same directions we did and got exactly the same results—nothing. Another 24 hours and WE have to schedule the technician—but forgets to give us her passcode. So it's another round of texting and our first 3 days are sh!t. Both cable box and modem needed to be replaced. No apologies, in fact no communication at all from Sharon. Last thing we got was her passcode. (Happy to share by the way)
Okay, let's try to hit the reset. Time for a good breakfast—oh heck no, frying pan is dirty, full of old scrambled eggs!! Sent Sharon a photo... crickets. Then the construction started next door. I kid you not! Jackhammer tile demo. Sharon's husband Richard is on the board of directors for the condo complex. We find this out from the Property Manager when he came on day 2. If you're on the BOD, you know when someone is getting work done on their condo—especially at a 12 unit complex! Sharon's response? "Oh, she didn't tell anyone, and contractors are so hard to find..."
That was the last we heard from Sharon... hm, I hope she's okay.
Go to Maui, buy local, over-tip!! Just stay with a different owner!!

We loved our place. Had everything we needed. Washer and dryer was a big plus. The location was so convenient to everything. Could lay in bed in the loft and see the ocean. The sunsets from the view off the patio were spectacular. Would highly recommend this condo. Well worth the cost. Can sleep 6, we had 4 adults staying there. So glad we chose it. Great memories.

We had a really great stay in this condo. The location was 10/10…being able to step out your back door and have the beach at your doorstep was priceless. The condo is well appointed with a full kitchen (including super sharp knives which is a rarity at holiday properties), laundry with powder available, two full bathrooms and living area. It was very conveniently located to restaurants and other beaches.
Communication with the owner was great and they allowed us to check in earlier as our flight arrived in the morning.
There is a cupboard full of snorkeling equipment, coolers, chairs and beach umbrellas which are available to use. This was very handy!
Overall, a perfect stay in Kihei.

This beautiful place was right on the beach. We could not have asked for a better location. Every morning we were either on the beach or walking to get breakfast and coffee. The unit had everything including both a Keurig and regular coffee maker. The owner thought of everything. We’ve been to Maui five times, staying at both resort hotels and condos. We liked this place the best.

This is the second time we stayed in this unit. It is still wonderful…the location is fantastic. Yes, it is not as fancy and updated as other units, (our family was in another unit in same complex).
Adjusted check in times would better, 4 was a bit late and 10 a bit early. Communion with Brittany was great.
Look forward to returning again.
Aloha.

We’ve been coming to Kihei for a few years and have always wanted to stay in these condos at our favourite beach. It didn’t disappoint. Wonderful to sit and have breakfast looking out to the beach and then a sundowner watching the sunset. Condo was clean and had everything we needed including equip for the beach. Would definitely stay again. We even asked to stay for one more night and they made it very easy for us to book.

What a fantastic place to stay! There are so many wonderful things about this place that I will not be able to mention it all.
- Every evening you will be treated to a wonderful sunset, each one unique, from the comfort of your porch.
- Wonderful location. On the back, you are steps from the beach and view of the islands of Lanai, Kahoolawe, a view of the West mountains and Molokini crater. On the front, you are minutes away from abc stores, gas stations, surf school and a short drive from the nice Wailea area.
- The unit itself is very thoughtfully stocked. Plenty of books about the islands, all sort of beach gear and travel gear, and kitchen equipment.
We spent a memorable fortnight in Maui filled with delightful sunsets!

Great location on the Charley Young beach in Kihei within walking distance of a number good restaurants. Very clean updated condo in great shape - we stayed for 17 nights never once turned the TV too busy enjoying the beach and having cocktails / meals on the lanai. All the beach accessories are there, chairs, umbrella, ice chest etc. Even used the electric grill a couple of times. Easy parking close to the unit. Kimberly was exceptional at communicating with us during the booking and any follow up questions - highly recommend this place and plan on returning. Mahalo! Bill & Tina

We had a wonderful trip. We have stayed at Kamaole One in a different unit in the past, and just love it here! This unit was tight for us as 4 adults, but it doesn't matter when you spend the day on the beach which is just out the door! We love the access to great local restaurants (Maui Taco and Coconuts being favorites) - and don't miss out on the Deli in the ABC store too!
We hope to come back again! Thank you!

The minute you walk into the condo, you see the beautiful ocean in the very near distance. The condo was clean and ready for morning coffee on the balcony overlooking the rolling waves and swaying palm trees. Steps to the ocean was worth every penny. Just a short walk down the beach or the street is an abundance of restaurants, shopping, drinks and shaved ice. The location can’t be beat. If you like lahaina and ka’anapali, a picturesque drive awaits, about 35-40 minutes. We enjoyed staying somewhere different and exploring a new place. One local favorite is the cinnamon place, must try! Thank you brittany for sharing your condo with my family. We will be back
