Loved every day

We loved our stay at this amazing property located in an exclusive gated community in Kapalua. The view was spectacular along with a very lovely patio area that we could enjoy the sounds of the crashing surf while enjoying a morning cup of coffee or a glass of wine in the evening. The property manager was exceptional in helping us with a matter that was fully corrected in a short period. The kitchen was well equipped along with bar-b-ques that we took advantage of. The property was in very good condition overall, but there are some signs of age with the furnishings and some of the blinds did not operate properly. However, the location, the view and the ambience made up for these small deficiencies.

Alan was great! Answered my questions very quickly and gave me great advice! Highly recommend the condo. The only slight issue I had was the amount of cars on the road throughout Maui. Not the problem for the condo or Alan. I guess many individuals want to be here on this great island as I did.

The location can’t be beat. It’s a beautiful condo that could use a deep cleaning. We saw several roaches in the kitchen and bathroom that kind of freaked me out.

This villa is an interesting stay of mostly pros but some cons. First and foremost the views on both stories are spectacular. Pure joy to look out all day long. The mattresses are good, the bathrooms are great. Two sitting areas and a table for 6. Front door has the walkway so no stairs getting in and out every time. But...if it matters to you the wrap around lanai is narrow. No eating out there together. The upstairs is accessed by a spiral staircase, mobility impaired wouldn't like it. Plus and this is a big con, the upstairs master is open to the first story (loft like) essentially no noise privacy. You can carry on a conversation with someone upstairs in a normal voice from the main dining room. Better be very close to another couple if your sharing. Main bedroom two double beds FYI. Kitchen is sparse with amenities but workable. Still haven't decided whether the unbelievable view and other pros out weighs the cons.

We stayed at the Kapalua Bay Villas for a wedding at the Ritz and it was perfect. The views were beyond and the space in the unit was super conducive to our growing family and in-laws who stayed with us as babysitters! Would recommend!

Beautiful property. Great week. The pull out Murphy bed is a great idea for families. One caveat, the Parrish Prop Mgmnt Group that is on site and manages the majority of properties in this area seems to more amenable that the group that manages this one…a few small requests were challenging than they should have been.

This location is simply stunning. Owners provide everything you need for an exceptionally comfortable stay. Manager provides excellent communication regarding check in, pool access, etc and periodically texts asking if you need assistance with anything, which we did not. The ocean view here is captivating and the immediate access to the coastal trail is great.

This wonderful villa is beautiful, comfortable, and peaceful. Rick Alo and his family have gone out of their way to furnish their villa with every amenity one could think of. Mahalo to them for being such great owners. Lastly, if there is a more beautiful place in all the world, I’m sure I don’t know where it is.

We love Maui and this is where we stay! Try to visit at least once a year during whale season and this year was the best! Just from the Lanai I saw over 30 whale sighting on day one. This place is the best and owner is great to work with.

Overall really enjoyed the property. The pictures were a little misleading in that it looks like there is grass surrounding the lower balcony but it is rock landscaping not grass. Was a little disappointed as we specifically booked the property for the grass area that our baby could crawl on. Besides that we enjoyed the stay and the kapalua area was amazing! Loved the beaches. Was great being so close to the pool

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful villa. We usually stay at The Ritz, however, this was very nearby and allowed us the best of both properties and then some!

The condo was a bit dated but clean and beautiful view. Good service from the manager, online process was excellent. Condo could use more glasses and the TV switching between streaming and cable did not work without special handling not shown in the condo guide.

Our third time here. Just an incredible place. Already booked our next trip. Great host, flawless check in, and views that will turn you black and blue from pinching yourself. Mahalo Rick.

We have stayed in Kapalua several times and have always booked a Villa, and this is by far our most favorite Villa of all time. The location is perfect and the views, sounds of the waves and the property itself are nothing short of amazing. Thank you for a fabulous vacation.

We could not have chosen a more perfect location to spend a week on Maui at! This condo was beautiful and had most everything that we needed… And when we noticed that a couple of things were missing like a toaster, cutting boards, the property manager replace them within an hour! I can’t begin to express what a beautiful view we had from the master bedroom upstairs! I sat every morning in the beautiful chair and watch the whales breach! It was absolutely magical! This condo was absolutely perfect for our family and we cannot wait to return!

We had a great stay at this cliff and beach side location! wonderful views sitting on the patio. Easy walks to three close beaches, including wave beach and snorkel beach. Pool just over the hill. Hard to come back to reality after our great vacation. We will be back!

January 2025

I’ve stayed in several units now at Kapalua Bag Villas and while all have been fantastic, this one is truly remarkable. So spacious, clean, well stocked, amazing view of the ocean… first time ever on a vacation we looked at if we could just book it again for next year.Christmas is a hard time of year for my family so this was the perfect retreat. Thank you!

The unit was a little dated but extremely clean, management was attentive and helpful throughout the stay. Beautiful location that was set on a hill overlooking Kapalua Bay. Great location, right next to the coastal trail and near amazing restaurants like Merriman’s (dinner), Island Vibes (coffee,breakfast,lunch) and The Gazebo (best mac nut pancakes ever). An overall good place!

Unit was a little run down. I can see they have done upgrades just well used. Had crazy neighbor experience a couple of times. Not owners fault but really unfortunate for such an expensive area. Cabinets need a deep cleaning smells like dead fish when you open the lowers. Great view and location. Whole experience not worth the cost. Hopefully others have better luck.

We had an incredible stay at this property over the Christmas holiday!Killer views from both floors and a very well appointed and stocked living room and kitchen plus, the mattress was very comfy allowing us to feel at home while on vacation. Everything you need was provided - kitchen, towels, beach chairs, snorkel gear, ice chest, you name it, this rental delivered!We will be back and can’t wait to secure this awesome property again in the future!Mahalo!!!

This place was awesome! Lots of space. The view from the upstairs bedroom is the absolute best. Loved having the couch up there. It was so nice to wake up with that view. Bed was sooo comfy!The area is so beautiful, the grounds are so pretty. Very close walk to the Kapalua trail. The only bummer was the wind which obviously is not a knock on this individual condo. It was our first time staying specifically in Kapalua so not sure if it’s always windy in that area on the hillside or if it was just a particularly windy week. The beach right by the condo was always to windy to hang on, but a short walk took us to Kapalua Bay Beach which was a great little beach that was more sheltered from the wind. I would very happily stay in this unit again.

The property and condo is absolutely beautiful, as described, with a stunning oceanfront location that’s hard to beat. It was peaceful and offered incredible views, especially from the balcony. We enjoyed daily walks to Kapalua bay. However, the place could benefit from a few updates, particularly with the balcony doors (hard to open) & twin bed. Overall lovely stay. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a Maui getaway.

We have traveled to Kapalua many times and always stay at Kapalua Bay Villas. This condo was amazing! Excellent view, wonderfully furnished and great location. Great for a couple as it is a one bedroom. We would definitely stay here again!

Great for the two of us to sit outside and enjoy the oasis and gorgeous views from everywhere in the condo.

This is a very spacious condo for a couple, with amazing views and close proximity to several beaches. Easy and pleasant walk to the Ritz and the beach there, to the tennis garden, and to Kapalua Bay beach with good snorkeling. A number of reviews mentioned wind noise, but Maui can be a windy place and this is an exposed location (hence the great views!). There was definitely wind noise, but we did not find it bothersome One star subtracted from Cleanliness, due to a couple of dead bugs and some ants, but this the tropics, so that is to be expected and not a big deal. The condo was very clean in all other respects. (Note to management: the ants seemed to like the scented Kleenex on the main floor bathroom sink. We move the Kleenex box to the back of the toilet and no more ants)

This villa has a huge picture window facing the beautiful ocean. The grounds are amazing and there is so much to do nearby. Lots of walking trails, etc. The only thing is that the taxes on the free car are higher than quoted but not bad. I will definitely return!

we enjoyed our stay - the unit was clean, comfortable and well appointed. the view from upstairs was fantastic. the location was perfect for our needs. close to the trail and an easy walk to snorkel. we were happy that beach towels and chairs were provided. check in/communication was good as was the wifi (we had no cell service, but wifi covered it). we would definitely stay here again.

The trip was amazing.... incredible views, nicely appointed unit, comfortable furnishings and surprisingly generous with staple goods (toilet paper/paper towels/laundry soap, etc which is sooooo not always the case). The kitchen appliances were seriously high quality, in fact, I loved the fridge so much I put it on my Christmas wishlist.... lol. honestly, the trip was awesome. the condo is in an awesome location with plenty of convenient parking. 2 small draw backs that were entirely my own issues.... 1) we loved the view so much that we left the blinds up at all times which meant that people could look into the condo as they walked by.... we figured they would only look once or go blind, lol. the 2nd was that a family with young kids were in the upstairs unit. Well, either young kids or 12 dogs that ran constantly. There doesn't seem to be a lot of sound proofing between floors but truthfully, the running was all we ever heard, never voices or TV or anything else. Again,our own issue and nothing that would deter us from renting again. Notes: its on the ocean so be prepared for dampness. 1) Buy Individual bags of chips rather than one big bag. Might cost more but at least you'll get to enjoy them all. 2) If you can, bring small amounts of your favorite spices. there's salt and pepper and some other minimal spices there, but it's damp and they don't last long and who knows how old they are? 3)
