All was amazing and easy access to the beach! Amenities were awesome.....the beach chairs, cooler and umbrella was very appreciated. We will definitely refer and use again. Only thing was we saw a few creepy crawly roaches on our last day, it was after a rain too, so maybe that brought them out.

This is our second time in this unit and absolutely love it! So spacious, the added drawers in the master bedroom was perfect! We are able to leave the pullout bed out for the kids our whole stay and still have plenty of room. Had all the dishes, etc we needed. The ability to grill poolside is great as well.The best part of course is the view from both balconies. We will definitely be back! Thank you again!

The pictures on VRBO properly represent this condo, well equipped and clean. The condo has beautiful furniture and a very comfy queen bed to have a great night sleep after long days at the beach and pool. We greatly appreciated the provided beach chairs and umbrella. The complex is very friendly and turtles are seen along the beach and in the ocean in front. Our return flight was cancelled at the last minute, and Cynthia kindly accommodated us for an extra night at a reduced cost. Our stay was really nice and we very much appreciate Cynthia and her family to let us share their condo on this paradise island. Mahalo,Char&Bob

The room was completely renovated and it felt like we were the first to use it. Nice condition and furnishings were mostly black with some gold accents. The wifi code was incorrect but we got that handled. Strangely there was absolutely no cabinet space for food, it has to be left on the counter..The room has an off and on vibration not really noticeable but it did keep me up for a short time in the middle of the nite. Overall we enjoyed our stay but personally I like a room with a more tropical vibe!

Check in and out was easy. Location was ok, nothing really close to walk to, but Kihei restaurants and shops are a short drive. Beach at the complex is not very good for snorkeling or swimming, but is a nice place to watch sunsets. Room condition was clean, and comfortable. However, there we some minor things to note. The towels were brand new from the package, but had not been washed, and smelled like the plastic packaging. We ended up using the beach towels. The sliding door to the deck from the living room was very hard to open, my gf could not do it. Looked like some of the tiles on the lanai hand been recently replaced, but they did a bad job, and made the deck uneven. The lid to trash can was broken, so the foot pedal did not work to open it. Those are all things the owners could remidy fairly easily, and I hope they do. The complex is really well maintained, and there is a guy that comes around 5am, and meticulously cleans the bbq grills, which is great. But also every morning at between 4 and 5am they roll a cart around between the buildings, which woke us up every day, which was really annoying. We are mixed on whether we would stay here again

We wanted someplace right on the water. This was the perfect spot. I spent a couple hours out on the lanai working every morning. We also liked the location in Kīhei and Joe was great at communicating.

everything we needed. hosts were very responsive with any questions we had. only things that was a bit annoying was the coin laundry as the machines weren't all working but i know that is not your fault. Also there was only one sorta functioning knife, the rest all had big chips out of them. Still 5/5, not major concerns, more comments. thanks again. would book there again. thank you.

We really enjoyed our stay. The building feels secure and safe. The beach is rocky but it's right there. Pool area was clean and not crowded. The unit could use a little updating, but it is clean, very well stocked with extra linens, beach equipment, excellent kitchen equipment. Was surprised not to have salt and pepper supplied. Guess we've been spoiled with some basic spices and oil in most units we've rented! Beds were comfortable. Enjoyed sitting on lanai in mornings. Great location near shopping and restaurants. Check in is late afternoon, and the property rental office closes shortly after. There is an emergency number for after hours. We checked in and couldn't get TV to work. Finally had decided to go buy new batteries in case that was the problem, but when we opened the remote to check it, it was extremely corroded. Called the office as they were closing to let them know our situation and that we might need a new one the next day. They were very helpful and told us we didn't need to replace the batteries ourselves and they dropped off a new remote for us on their way home. That was the only issue we had to call about and it went well. I would recommend. Some friends were there at the same time and they stayed in a smaller unit that had been updated beautifully. Ours was more basic, but it also had two bedrooms and two bathrooms, which we really wanted. The living room furniture is attractive, but not very comfortable.

We loved our time at this rental near Kihei. Great view, super clean inside, nice pool and spa. Kihei has many good, reasonably priced restaurants to enjoy. Short drive each day for various snorkeling beaches. For sure would stay here again if we're lucky enough to come back to Maui.

This is a great place to stay, very central location for the whole island. If you are looking to explore this is the perfect place, everything was within about an hour drive and there is plenty of good beaches with free parking near the apartment. If you want to have the expensive resort feel this is not the place for you. However, the apartment had all the necessary cooking equipment along with beach stuff. The best food truck place on the island was only 10 mins away and plenty of other good restaurants near. The host was available whenever you needed her. The beach out front of the apartment has some rocks but was never busy and saw multiple sea turtles. Overall great place to stay and would use the accommodation again.

Immaculate place with so many thoughtful amenities to enhance your stay and experience it was amazing. The views were great, beach access super easy and location is perfect for going to other parts of Maui. Hot tub and pool were very clean and grounds well maintained. The unit is well furnished with thoughtful touches like books and guides. The bed was comfortable and AC worked great. Parking was beyond easy, and more importantly felt safe. Check in was easy and Host excellent at communicating. We will absolutely stay here again when back in Maui

First thing...I can't believe no previous guests mentioned the fact that there are no closets in this place. There is a place to hang things by the front door and a small place in the back bedroom but they were full of other items. There was also no dresser in the back bedroom, only a small desk with little tiny drawers. We basically lived out of our suitcase for 10 days. Unfortunately, the condo was not very clean. The floors were filthy and the countertops and dining table and coffee table weren't even wiped off. The windows were also dirty as were the lanai's. We even had to buy wipes to clean the tables/countertops.The quality of the bedding was lacking, I even had a hole in my sheet in the back bedroom. It almost seemed like the condo had been unoccupied for some time and just not cleaned prior to arrival. No decor at all in the condo (minus a couple of small items on the shelf in the kitchen). Some or any art in the condo would have made it feel much more welcoming. Tiny shampoo and conditioner provided and tiny hand soap for bathroom sinks but no bath soaps, definitely not enough for someone who is staying 10 days. The staff at checkin/out was very nice.

The view from this unit is absolutely stunning — the kind of Maui magic you never get tired of waking up to! The condo had everything we needed to get started and was beautifully furnished - it felt so welcoming and relaxing.And the bed… wow! So comfy! I may have lost my husband in it a few times (it’s huge), but we both agreed it was comfort to the max — and that never happens!Communication with the host was a breeze — clear, friendly, and responsive. The keyless entry was so convenient, and the location near the elevator makes it ideal for anyone with mobility concerns.All in all, this was our second stay at Kauhale Makai, and once again, it did not disappoint. The location is bang on for enjoying all Kihei has to offer and a quick walk across the lawn gets you to the beach. Mahalo for sharing your beautiful slice of paradise — we’ll be back for sure!

We had an incredible stay. So clean, quiet, comfortable and very well situated. We were two couples and we had everything we needed, nothing we didn’t. Made great use of the beach chairs and beach umbrella. Loved morning coffee on the Lanai and steps from the beach for beautiful sunsets. The grounds and the view is spectacular. Communication with Lisa and Jules was absolutely wonderful! Highly recommend this place. We will definitely come back again!
