We loved our stay here. The location is excellent - right on a beach that is great for walking and watching the sunset - and close to downtown with restaurants, shops and beaches. The view from the lanai is just what we wanted - a great view of the ocean. The property was supplied with all the basic and included some beach gear. (Note: there is one chair but it is a lawn chair, not a beach chair.) awe we’re happy with our stay here!

We really enjoyed our stay in the condo, it had everything we needed for our stay and more. The view from the balcony is great and we loved listening to all the bird song in the morning and the sound of the ocean in the evening. The pool and hot tub area were great too. Good location and very quiet .

The room was perfect in almost every way. Some did say that the beds could have been more comfortable although mine seemed to suit me well. The kitchen was accessorized very well. I'm guessing that the refrigerator was not designed to last long, but that's not Joe's fault. If we return to Maui with the family again, this unit will be our first choice. Thank you for providing such a beautiful room.

We loved our week at Kauhale Makai! The unit itself was exactly as described and photographed in the VRBO listing. Several reviews mentioned a well-stocked kitchen - for those who like to know details, that included a drip coffee maker, a water filter, grilling tools for the community grills, tupperwares, ice trays in the freezer, dish soap, and some oil/vinegar/shoyu/spices leftover from past guests. There was also plenty of toilet paper and extra linens for bath and bed, and the TV is a smart TV that can connect to your apps.The furnishings are very classy and in excellent condition. That really made us feel at home while sitting around the living areas during our lazy holiday. The grounds at Kauhale Makai are beautiful with a large lawn leading to the beach, two pools and a hot tub. Over Christmas it was lively (in a fun, non-disruptive way) among the guests and owners! The beach was never crowded and the water was very clear and calm. We found the surrounding neighborhood challenging to walk in as there aren't pedestrian-friendly sidewalks in the surrounding blocks or along the route to the grocery store and shopping/restaurant areas. Hawai'i is very car-centric but given that the area is full of beachside condos I was a little surprised at the pedestrian inaccessibility.We would absolutely book Laurie's unit at Kauhale Makai again, and have already recommended it to friends! Mahalo nui loa for a lovely vacation!

We enjoyed our stay at Patti’s condo. It is a modest accommodation and priced well for a couple on a budget. The condo overlooks the parking lot, so the views are not the most desirable. However, the beach is super close and we spent most of our time enjoying the sunshine. The furniture is dated and the bed was not the most comfy, but the place was clean and quiet.The kitchen was well stocked with the basics and there were beach towels/chairs. Make sure to bring soap and shampoo, these items were not provided. The condo is located in more of a residential area, so not many walkable restaurants and stores. Patti was very quick to respond and even accommodated our change of plans. We love Maui and would definitely stay here again.

View was as stated. Location is in very close proximity to the very busy Kihei road.We found there was not a supply of basic household items such a garbage bags, etc. The lanai did not have any shade, so the nice view could only be enjoyed very early in the morning or just after sunset.

Loved this condo and it’s location! Located in a peaceful neighborhood on north end of Kihei yards from the beach with comfortable beds, good AC, a very well-stocked kitchen with nice appliances. We enjoyed whale watching from the balcony with binoculars, walks along the beach at sunrise and sunset, proximity to grocery store and restaurants. Communication with property manager and owner host was exceptional!

This was amazing for 2 people! The bed was super comfy and the condo was pretty clean. The only downfall was there were tiny little bugs all over the kitchen. They went all in our food which caused us to notice them. They became super annoying. It was great yo gave towels provided and beach equipment to use! The cooler was perfect for the Road to Hana:) I would stay again!

The condo was a fantastic spot for our stay in Maui. When we opened the door, it was clear that so much care was put into the beautiful design and modern accents that made you feel right at home. Stunning views from both the main living area and the bedroom made it the perfect spot to relax after a great day of exploring all the nearby beaches and amenities. The kitchen was well-stocked and efficient.The extra beach gear was a nice touch and the hosts from HawaiiLife were fantastic to deal with. An A-Plus stay for us and our family and we will be back! Mahalo!

Nice spacious condo with great views. The condo could use a deep clean (washing walls) but otherwise clean. Having the kitchen was great! Easy to check in and staff were very sweet.
The best part was being located on the beach. It is not the nicest beach you will find in Maui. But it is still decent/convenient AND the amount of turtles you see is so cool. All day I got to watch turtles swim down the shore line or watch whales in the distance.
The condo location is central and I loved that part also.
It was overall such a great experience and I would totally recommend coming here!

We were missing a travel crib when we arrived, I reached out to Joe and he had one delivered within a couple hours. Can’t wait to go back.

Loved that it was so close to the beach and that chairs and umbrella were provided. A little disappointed that the inside of the unit was not updated and the closet had a lot of sand and dirt in it. The toilet did not flush well and the bathtub drain was very slow.

The condo is beautiful! The kitchen is really well equipped, it’s very quiet for sleeping and the king size bed was luxurious. We enjoyed the morning sun on the lanai with our breakfast and great ocean views. The property also has a beautiful lawn area, pool, bbq’s, hot tub and sandy beach where you can do walks in either direction.

Wonderful location to rest and experience Maui. Could stay within 3 miles or drive an hour 2, either way you’d have something new to try almost daily. Food and a calm area where I could snorkel or hike was what I was going for and this spot was perfect for all. Home is clean, bright, and the perfect size for a couple.

We stayed here for 2 nights while visiting Maui. We live on a different island and this was the perfect spot for a peaceful getaway that still feels like home. It has a beautiful view to enjoy coffee or wide down a the end of the day. Very pleased with the amenities included just incase you forget something! Overall, great stay for a great price!
