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 consistently love Kihei Kai Nani’s location: it’s directly across the street from Kamaole Beach Park II, perfect for daily swims, snorkeling, and postcard sunsets. The grounds feel friendly and well kept, with a large, rarely crowded pool, BBQ areas, and easy parking. Many units are thoughtfully stocked with beach chairs, umbrellas, coolers, and well-equipped kitchens, and several have lanais with garden peek-a-boo or ocean views. The complex is walkable to cafes, shave ice, shops, gear rentals, and casual restaurants, and it’s a convenient base for exploring Wailea and the rest of Maui.

Stays feel more like a homey beach condo than a resort. Individual units vary—some newly renovated with upgraded kitchens and split AC, others simple but comfortable—yet most guests report clean spaces, responsive hosts, and good value for the area. Families and couples appreciate the laid-back vibe, the big pool, and the ability to cook in, then cross the street for sunset. First-floor units are popular for easy access; note the property’s 2–3 story buildings generally do not have elevators.

Common trade-offs reflect the complex’s age and condo-style setup. Air conditioning is often a single window unit in the living room (sometimes on a timer), so bedrooms can run warm; if you run hot, look for units with bedroom AC or plan on fans/tradewinds. Many condos don’t have in‑suite laundry (coin-op is onsite), and front buildings can pick up early-morning service-truck noise or the occasional rooster, while units set back are quieter. A few guests mention dated furnishings or minor pest sightings typical of the tropics, but the recurring theme is a clean, well-stocked, walk-everywhere base that delivers excellent beach access and value without full-service resort frills.

We had an excellent stay in this condo. Clean, quiet, close to the beach. Would definitely recommend it.

My wife and I have stayed multiple times. As usual everything was top shelf! Excellent location close to many restaurants & beaches. Great swimming pool and the condo is well equipped with everything you need for a great stay!

The Condo is in a great location with lots of food and activity options. The Condo itself was as described in the listing, but the floors need a deep deep cleaning. I'm not sure where the cleaning fees are going? Had to wear socks (hope they come clean after the trip) or flip flops while in the condo. Carpets, shower, and hard surface floors were very dirty (Owner - please clean them for future guests). Overall, it was a great stay, but the dirty carpet, and dirty floors was a major downer for the trip. I also want to note the AC is a single window unit, we used fans in the hall and living room to help cool the Condo. When you arrive, read the note boards to help figure out the lights. The lights are controlled by remote controls, this was confusing at first, but the note boards helped. If you choose to stay at this Condo, there is lots of the mineral type sunscreen in the hall closet and lots of beach gear to go enjoy the beach.I'm looking forward to my next stay in Maui, but it will be a a different Condo due to the filthy dirty floors.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We spent about six days/nights here and by the time we left, we felt like we were leaving home. Cozy, temperate, everything we could need on vacation (practical and otherwise), a small porch with a gorgeous view we took our coffee on in the mornings and beers in the afternoons: fantastic. Great location/parking too. (We never got to the pool but were glad it was there.) We hope to get back soon.

I travel a lot, and I can honestly say this was by far the best place I’ve ever stayed in. The host was incredible—she gave us all the information we needed right away and then let us enjoy our stay without ever bothering us. The space itself was absolutely perfect for the three of us. She went above and beyond in providing everything we could possibly need and more—plenty of fresh towels, fully stocked kitchen equipment, and so many thoughtful little extras that made us feel completely at home. It was spotless, comfortable, and honestly exceeded all of our expectations. I can’t recommend this place enough and would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Location Location Location is just a few minutes walk to the beach and shopping. Complex is well run and beautiful. I had one minor issue with my unit and my host Karen sorted it out immediately. Over all fantastic stay loved it when the trade winds flowed thru the unit. Probably the best stocked kitchen ever and can't wait to return.

The location was great, very easy access to the beach and restaurants. However a few items need to be addressed. 1.difficult to open the door with the key. 2. The top vent on the micro kept falling off each time we opened the door. 3. The small cooler zipper pull was broken so it was hard to close. 4. they need a bathroom rug for slippage after showers.

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: It was great after I worked out a few bugs.The air conditioner did not work. After cleaning the air filter and resetting the error code all was well. The microwave also was not working! After a few minutes of investigation, I found the GFI had tripped. Reset the GFI and it worked fine. Then the coffee maker did not have power, GFI was also tripped. The batteries in the television remote were dead. Switched them with the sound system remote batteries, all was well. Purchased new batteries and put them in the television remote. The homeless camp out the north window made us feel right at home.

Overall pretty good. The AC however is only in the living room and automatically shuts off every 6 hours making it impossible to get a full nights rest. There also isn’t a dishwasher and the washer/dryers you have to pay for.

Couldn’t fault anything. Perfect location & room. Suggestion to put a sign on the shower tap to “pull out firmly to get water flowing- it does work ” Room amenities excellent & beach equipment very well received

Honestly everything was as advertised, it was easy to park to check in and it’s in a supreme spot! The balcony was so nice to watch sunsets and everything was very very VERY clean! Bonus it had AC throughout the whole apartment but we kept it sectioned off in the bedroom only at night so we could enjoy the breeze. The complex was quiet and felt very safe.

We had a wonderful stay at Susan’s condo! The place was immaculate when we arrived and had everything we needed for a comfortable vacation. The bed and pull-out couch were both very comfortable, with plenty of extra pillows and soft linens provided. We loved starting our mornings, walking barefoot to the beach across the street for morning swims and on the lanai with its beautiful ocean view - it was such a peaceful spot.Communication with Susan was excellent - she was kind, responsive, and quick to reply to any questions.Overall, our stay was fantastic, and we would absolutely stay here again on future trips to Maui. Highly recommend!

Although the living room had a pull out bed they gave us no sheets or bedding for it. Did they think a 16 yr old would sleep with his grandmother? Ants I the bathroom. Took us a day to find the living room a/c . We left.

Everything was great about our stay except for not having air conditioning in the bedroom. It was too hot to sleep in there without it so we ended up sleeping on the sofa sleeper. Other than that it had everything we needed and was at a good location.

Amazing as always! You won't find a better host than Roxanne. Her condo is adorable and has become our go to when visiting Maui. The cute decor, amazing location, comfortable bed, kitchen with everything you need to cook your meals if that is your desire, ocean view on the lanai and beautiful grounds with amazing pool make this a little slice of paradise. We will definitely book this condo next year. Thank you Roxanne for going above and beyond. Mahalo!
