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.

Travelers rave about Kamaole Sands’ location and setting. The resort sits directly across from Kamaole Beach Park III, so it’s an easy walk to swim, snorkel, boogie board, and catch nightly sunsets. Reviewers consistently praise the beautifully maintained tropical grounds, clean pool and BBQ areas (often cleaned daily), and family‑friendly amenities like a kiddie/wading pool, hot tubs, gym, and pickleball/tennis courts. Kihei’s central, walkable location is another standout: coffee, shave ice, casual restaurants, and shops are nearby, and Wailea’s beaches and activities are a short drive.

Most condos feel like well‑equipped homes. Many units are updated, clean, and comfortable with full kitchens, washers/dryers, two bathrooms, and thoughtful beach gear (chairs, umbrellas, coolers, wagons, toys). Lanais are a highlight—ground‑floor patios open to lawn that’s great for kids, while upper floors trade that for wider ocean or garden views and breezes. Guests frequently note strong communication and quick fixes from responsive hosts/managers (PMI Maui mentioned often). Families in particular love the convenience, space, and resort vibe.

A few themes to keep in mind: units are individually owned, so decor and upkeep vary—many are modernized, while some feel dated or have occasional cleaning or maintenance misses. Air‑conditioning setups differ (some have splits in every room; others rely on living‑room units or timers), and a handful of guests found bedrooms warm without bedroom A/C. Buildings closest to South Kihei Road (especially 10) can have traffic noise, and occasional activity at the adjacent park; interior buildings are generally quieter. Periodic property construction (notably roof work) has caused daytime noise or parking detours for some stays—ask ahead. Also expect a brief front‑desk check‑in and modest resort fee. If these details matter, confirm bedroom A/C, lanai size/view, beach gear included, and any scheduled construction when you book.

Great location, the host was always kind and helpful with any questions we had! Amazing grounds and beautiful place. Some kitchen appliances that were needed were not provided but that was no problem. Overall we had an amazing time and hope to be back soon!

We had an amazing experience staying here in Maui! The place was spotless, beautifully maintained, and exactly as described in the listing. The location was perfect — close to the beach, restaurants, and shops, yet still quiet and relaxing. The host was incredibly welcoming and responsive, making check-in and communication so easy. They went above and beyond to make sure I felt comfortable and had everything I needed for my stay. Waking up to the sound of the ocean and enjoying sunsets in Kihei made the trip extra special. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Maui.

We enjoyed our stay! Everything was clean and comfortable. We loved the spacious lanai and it being the ground floor so we could easily walk right across to the pool. Beds were comfortable and the kitchen was equipped with everything we needed. Only suggestion would be to have a high chair or booster seat available. The kids plates and play pen were very handy!

Everything was great in the unit. We did not have an ocean view but the grounds are beautiful to look at and we are kinda ticked away with an end unit, loved that. Would book again.

Amazing location! Ocean view to enjoy with your morning coffee, right across the street from the beach, and walkable to many shops and restaurants. The condo was well stocked with everything we needed for the beach. Would definitely stay here again!

The condo was very cozy and comfortable. Had all the amenities you would need for a great time at the beach which was right across the street. Don’t have to go far to watch the sunset in the evenings! A large lanai to enjoy the outdoor breeze and to relax to the swaying of the palm trees in privacy since you are on the top floor. Walking distance away to little shops and a few restaurants or a short drive to many more restaurants and a great food truck pavilion you need to check out. There was some construction work in our building while we were there and it was a distraction, but it wasn’t at the fault of the owner but more of a property renovation as a whole. We still really enjoyed Kehei and exploring Maui!

Reviewer Comments: We enjoyed the location of the condo. Everything was clean and in good condition. The grounds were kept up nicely.

The location was awesome, Kamaole Sands grounds were beautiful and well maintained, and the condo is really nice. The communication with the host was great, with quick responses. We were able to extend our stay by one day, which we appreciated.Apartment was beautifully renovated and well stocked, the only thing we did not find in the kitchen was tongs. It was mostly clean, with just a few spots missed; for example, we found some dirty spoons that were obviously used and just put back in a kitchen drawer without being washed (most likely by the previous guests), or some hair that was not ours in the main bathroom. The owner provided a beach umbrella, chairs and a boogie board, which was appreciated. Some of the chairs and the umbrella will need to be replaced soon. These things are minor and did not deter from our stay. Overall, we had a great stay and would definitely come back.The only thing I did not like was receiving at least 2 messages asking for a 5-star review before we even arrived. The condo speaks for itself, so this was not necessary. As an analyst and a researcher, I know asking for 5-star review upfront may actually deter people from rating the place in the first place. :)

We had a wonderful stay in this unit at Kam Sands. It was extremely well stocked with quality items, very clean, comfortable bed and furniture and lots of beach items for use. Location is excellent. Host was very responsive to an issue we had with the lock which was quickly resolved. We have stayed in some good units in this complex but this one topped them all. I would recommend without hesitation and will definitely stay in this unit again!

My family and I had a great time. The apartment is well located, just a few minutes walking from nice beaches, restaurants, bakery, and rental places. The condominium is very well maintained and during the time we were there it was very quite

This condo could not have been more perfect for our vacation. AC in the bedroom and living room kept the unit cool, and everything from the mattress to the dining chairs were comfy. Great location in Kihei, right across from a wonderful beach. The condo itself was steps away from the pool and in the back of the complex so it was nice and quiet. I highly recommend this condo!

This condo was perfect for 2 people. Super clean, cheery and stylish decor, and all the amenities needed. It has a nice view, overlooking the pool, with a peeping view of the ocean. The host was prompt to respond and able to accommodate our plans which changed slightly for checkin and departure. We really enjoyed our stay here.

Condo on beautiful property of Kaomole Sands. Great location to beaches and activities of Kihei. Beautiful remodeled well stocked kitchen. Great beach items included for use as well. Matt also provided a portable fan as requested prior to check in. All in all, a great place and good value. The only issues we had were the worn out mushy, sagging king mattress and the flat lanai cushions. Replacing lanai cushions and that worn out mattress would bring this property a perfect review!

Everything was good, just that we did not have pleasant experience because my daughter got scared after seeing gecko in house. She did not experience ever that kind of thing here in Seaatle location. But, again that is natural over there due to the weather and all those things. Apart from that the bed was not that good. It was quirky a lot.

September 2025

Overall, a good location and nice complex. Good apartment gym if you want to get some exercise in. Easy to walk everywhere. Biggest complaint was the wifi and A/C. A/C is on a timer and only can last 4 hours at a time, so if you get hot sleeping - you will have to get up to turn back on in middle of night. Also, if you are working remote on your stay, the wifi wasn't very dependable for handling virtual meetings, etc.But overall, it was a convenient and easy place to stay. Would recommend for those looking to completely detach from work and just relax.

Likely one of the best vacation rentals I've ever had. The host's thoughtfulness in preparing for guests really surpassed every place I've stayed at. Not only do they have all the beach and cooking gear all supplied for use... there were little touches here and there that made this place outstanding:-A bag of recyclable bags ready to use by the front door-a laundry basket- ziploc bags- discount foodland coupon provided by front desk- multiple keys to split among guests- numerous beach towels- wagon and cooler for beach staysThank you again! Do not hesitate to book.

We had a lovely stay in this condo. It’s the perfect location in the complex for the pool but still really quiet. We prefer being on the ground floor too. The kitchen had lots of condiments for us to use which was really helpful not having to buy too much for a holiday. The beds were really comfy and my daughter said the sofa bed was the best she’s slept on! We appreciated the beach chairs and umbrella too! It was easy to check in and great communication with the owner. You can walk down to the beach in 5 minutes and Kihei is a great location for access to the rest of the island.

Great property!

August 2025

The unit was clean, well stocked kitchen and beach supplies. Great location with the beach across the street and nice grilling and pool area. Unfortunately, a leaky roof with rain water running down the wall through an electrical switch and pooling on the floor in our 3 and 4 year old granddaughter’s bedroom, which we felt was unsafe to be in for 24 hours, as recommended from the Condo maintenance. When we notified our Host of the situation, his attitude was absolute disrespectful and flippant and that we had options and could move the twin beds into the living room. Host could work on his conversational skills when talking with concerned guests. My reason for not giving a 5 star rating. I have videos of the flow of rainwater running through the electrical switch box if needed.
