What Do Guests Think? An Analysis of 791 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 consistently describe Kihei Bay Vista as a low‑key, well‑kept condo complex in North Kihei, directly across the street from Kalepolepo Beach and the Hawaiian Islands Humpback Whale Sanctuary. The location is central for exploring the island yet feels relaxed and quieter than the busier strip further south. Guests love the easy sunset strolls, frequent sea turtle sightings at the historic fishpond, and the tidy pool, hot tub, and BBQ area. Units are praised for being clean and comfortable, with full kitchens, in‑suite washer/dryers, and lots of thoughtful beach gear (chairs, umbrellas, coolers, boogie boards). Hosts and managers are often noted as responsive and proactive, contributing to strong value for money.

Inside, the condos are individually owned, so decor ranges from freshly updated to a bit dated, but most reviews highlight well‑stocked kitchens (sometimes “pay‑it‑forward” pantries), comfortable beds, and spacious lanais overlooking the pool or gardens. The complex is generally quiet and friendly, with easy, free parking and straightforward keypad check‑ins. It’s an especially convenient base for day trips (Wailea, Haleakalā, Road to Hana), with groceries and restaurants a short drive away; many guests cook in and use the grills, then unwind in the pool or across the street at the beach.

Common trade‑offs to know: this is an older, walk‑up property (no elevators), so second‑floor access is via stairs. Air‑conditioning is often limited to a living‑room unit (or a timed/noisy bedroom unit), so bedrooms can run warm, especially if the AC is off before arrival; fans and night breezes help. Being on S. Kihei Road brings some occasional traffic noise, and while many units are spotless, a minority mention dated furnishings, stained carpets, or sporadic housekeeping/maintenance hiccups typical of individually managed condos (plus occasional tropical ants). North Kihei has had periodic storm‑related flooding and rare amenity closures, and the complex signage/parking stalls can feel tight. Even so, the overwhelming sentiment is positive—most guests would (and do) return for the location, amenities, and easy, good‑value stay.

Kitchen was well stocked. The apartment was clean and well maintained. Conveniently located near shopping. Although located across from the beach, there was construction during our stay which limited quick access to the beach. Enjoyed our stay!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Convenient apartment living with bus stops within a block. I did not need a car. The unit was very clean but outdated and lacks color. I could not access the TV lineup and the key was difficult to release and I could not put it back. The bedroom was too warm and I slept on the couch for the AC. I suggest a keyless entry be installed to avoid frustrations. The pool and grounds are well kept. I enjoyed the lanai overlooking the grounds. Rentals Maui is very professional and helpful. Mahalo!

Property was set up to meet all of our basic needs. It was very clean and just what we needed for our short stay in Kihei. Our biggest difficulty was navigating the parking and entrance to the property in the dark.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our condo that we had in Kihei was amazing... We stayed at Kihei Bay Vista before but at a different condo. This time around, we had a very scary tsunami warning, which kind of set back our vacation for one day, but if you have a great mindset and a positive attitude or overall experience was very very amazing.!!!! The condo was great, my son loved it specially the pool he got to swim in it pretty much every night, except for when the sirens sounded for the tsunami. We can’t wait to come back again.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a small issue with the blinds. I contacted the staff in the morning and the owner fixed it right away in the afternoon. We didn’t know he’s the owner and gave him some tip. But he didn’t take it and suggested us leave it to the cleaning crew.

I didnt receive my check in email instructions but one quick call soved the problem very quickly and i was pleased to be able to check in early.Also our AC in living room gave out the 2nd day. I should have called sooner but very quickly after i called a new portable AC quickly arrived & was set up. We love staying here at Kehei Bay Vista! It is our favorite on Maui. Overall excellent! We were disappointed at the construction blocking a direct walk across the street to the beach but that is not the fault of complex and we made it work.

The unit D208 was very comfortable and super well equipped. Thank you to the landlords who have left boogie boards, beach towels, beach bags, board games, snorkels, every kitchen tools, fans, icepacks... The property was great too, including the pool, the well taken care garden, the parking... Highly recommended!

Staycationed at this condo from Monday through Monday. Did a lot of research before booking this place. I looked at other places including hotels in Kīhei on the strip before taking a chance at this place. Well, I must say that it was an excellent place to stay for a party of 2. I didn’t want to be cramped in a hotel room or studio for a whole week. This one bedroom was so spacious! When you first walk in to the unit, you see the living room and dining room. The floors were clean. I usually don’t like walking barefoot as I know mainlanders wear their shoes in their homes so I usually wear house slippers when I travel. But I felt comfortable going barefoot because the floors were so clean. The kitchen was like my own, not a smudge on the stove or microwave. We didn’t cook while here but I did open each cupboard door and drawer to see what kinds of cooking utensils, pots, appliances, and dinnerware they had. They have everything you need. The dishes we did use were clean as well. The bathroom was clean as well. Floors, shower, sink and toilet were spotless. I wasn’t too fond of the automatic faucet in the bathroom sink as there was no way to change the temperature and get warm/hot water and the water pressure was too high so it kept splashing out of the sink. Also, for shorter people, the shower head didn’t work well for me. I had to adapt to using both the sink and shower but they both worked and drained well. Spacious bedroom/closet! Beach gear and towels, coolers too!

Nice location, great view, responsive host, clean accommodations. Thank you! I appreciated the extra towels and available beach equipment. Only negative was that the A/C units were incredibly loud, both in the bedroom and the living room.

Quiet and yet easily accessible to beaches, restaurants and shopping. We enjoyed the coolers, umbrellas and beach chairs that were available. It was so nice the have a full kitchen for meals. The air condition unit and fan gave us a comfortable night’s sleep.

The property is conveniently located with one block to the beach and marine research center. We had everything we needed for our stay. The bedroom doesn't have an A/C so we kept the door open to let living room AC provide some cool air.

This is an older condo that was clean and worked for our needs. It’s on the second floor which we wanted but the steep staircase leading to it might not work for some.

I was a little nervous booking last minute as I didn't have a lot of time to research the place and area like I usually do. But we were going to meet our Grandson who was just born the day before, so that was how we had to do it. I have to say I was very pleasantly surprised. The place and property were very clean. The area was very nice. We could walk across the street to the beach and enjoy either spending the day there or going for a sunset walk. The only downside to the location is if you're hoping to walk to shopping or restaurants, but we didn't need that. And we were 5 minutes away from where our family lives there. I would definitely stay again on a another trip. The only improvement I would hope for is a quieter AC unit in the bedroom, but even as is, it worked fine and did the job.The pool and hot tub were a great way to end off the day and the view was perfect.

Great stay at condo. Everything matched the description on-line. Condo was cleaned and loved the pay-it forward system Eric has with guests staying. The neighbors weren't to friendly but it was expected. Other than that, I would recommend this condo/client to future visitors or travelers.

All I can say it was a great stay in Maui. The apartment was clean and came equipped with a washer/dryer. Which was convenient b/c of one less thing I had to worry about when I got home. The bed very comfortable. The pool was right across from my apt. and the location easy to get around to local beaches and supermarkets. Will definitely come back next year.

The unit we atayed in was nice. Kitchen and bathroom had been recently updated. Nice pool. Only one nice restaurant within walking distance so you denitely need a car, especially if you want to visit the nicer, larger beaches, or make a trip to the grocery store. Overalll, the Kiheii area and Maui, as a whole, has a LOT to offer! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay on the island. Signage to the property needs to be more visible, especially for finding the entrance at night.
