Great place to stay! A view of the incredible ocean, everything you need nearby and everything you need for cooking and recreation.

The location was awesome, other than that I felt that the cleanliness of the suite wasn’t what I expected. Floor was dirty and the bathtub was filthy, I had to clean the place myself. Also the doors were not closing and locking properly. Overall it could have been better for the price that we were charged.

The condo is in a lively part of Kihei, with easy access to restaurants and stores at a walking distance. It's across the street from the beach. The condo is very well equipped with beach gear and snorkeling equipment. Parking was very easy to find (we were there between Xmas and New Year). Bed was very comfortable. A/C worked really well. Nothing was missing in the unit. Great communication from the host. Overall an excellent experience.

The location was perfect with several walkable options for groceries and restaurants. The condo was very well stocked. There were high quality chairs and boogie boards included, which was fantastic.The only two items I’d share: 1. The air conditioner is in the living room, so the bedroom does stay a few degrees warmer than the living room. 2. The windows are a certain style that don’t provide an airtight seal, so you can at times hear neighbors and outside noises.That said, I do recommend this unit! It was clean, comfortable, and really suited our needs!

We stayed for 1.5 months, I worked from the apartment, good internet! We liked everything, clean, quiet, everything you need for life is there. A beautiful beach across the road from the complex, 5 minutes walk. The balcony is shaded by trees, so the apartment does not heat up, the air conditioner was not needed, we did not even turn on the fan. There is a washing and dryer machines in the apartment! We met the owners, wonderful people, pleasant to talk to and very attentive! Thank you, it was great! We would like to come back!

Clean comfortable condo with a super king bed… great linens! Walking distance to good beaches and a variety of dining options. Nice clean pool and grounds. Teri was very accommodating and kind.

I was pleasantly surprised at how amazing the location of the condo was in relation to so many things within walking distance, and being directly across the street from the best of Kehei's beaches (Kamaole II beach). And only a 5 minute drive south to fancy shopping and dining in Wailea. The condo was in the very back so it was quiet and private drinking coffee on the balcony when the sun comes up to the glorious (and loud) sounds of many different types of exotic birds was amazing. The condo property was clean, even tho it was very old. Many permanent residents live there. The unit we stayed in is in desperate need of updating, as it appears to be original (30yrs old?), and the furniture and decor looks like a thrift store explosion. But I didn't care about that, as it was clean enough, beds were comfy, and we had what we needed (except a/c). There is no a/c, so I'm not sure I could handle that in the summer. It was unseasonably warm for December, but was manageable with all the fans. Not sure how I overlooked that in the listing, but I usually never stay at a condo that doesn't have a/c. It was only warm in the mid to late afternoons, but when in Maui you shouldn't be sitting in the condo at that time anyway!! Highly recommend for the price.

Karen saved the day, or at least the vacation!!My initial rental (booked 6 months in advance, a different unit—not Karen) cancelled with less than 36 hours until our arrival. Panic!!! Luckily this unit was available. It fit our group and our needs. The unit has everything and is comfortable. The neighbors were a tad noisy, but if that’s all I have to complain about it’s a WIN!Great condo. Can’t beat the location. Good communication with Karen. Definitely recommend!

This condo was perfect for my time in Maui. It is right across from the beach and within walking distance to some food options and a small store where you can grab needed items. Having air conditioning is a nice bonus. I liked being on the ground level and the back lanai is private. I would recommend this spot and stay here again.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This condo was conceniently located in Kihei. There was a lovely beach just across the street where I watched the sunset every night. They were equipped with everything we needed our entire stay. The kitchen counter is very low, as if built for children. Otherwise lovely home!

We loved our stay at Bobs place. Being a stone’s throw away from a great home base beach and having a balcony with a view of the sunset every night was important to us and this was the perfect place for a relaxing vacation. The condo had everything we needed and more! We were happy to be able to not have to worry about beach chairs, towels or umbrella as we spent most of the trip beach hopping. The location was super walkable and better than most of the other condos we had contemplated and saw once we arrived. The condo was very clean with a comfortable bed.

Centrally located in the heart of Kihei. Beach across the street. Well kept property with all the extras on site. Great place.

Karen was quick to reply to our questions and with a late flight home we were thankful for the late checkout out time. The property was stocked with al the kitchen gadgets you would need, plenty of towels and beach needs. Just a couple of suggestions... we wanted to ensure that we were on the ground floor because of my mobility issues, however there where stairs from the parking lot to the building. Secondly with an 11 day stay and 2 adults being provided with more than one small hotel size bar of soap for the shower would have been nice. Overall it was a great stay and we would go again!

Fantastic condo well stocked with everything one needs - beach chairs, umbrellas, beach towels. Kitchen has abundance of everything as well. Owner provided plenty of soaps, toilet paper etc which was immensely appreciated. Everything was in good condition from furniture to pots and pans. The king size bed also very comfortable.

We stayed for 3 weeks, the unit was clean and well equipped for cooking and the beach. The bed was very comfortable and the A/C in the bedroom was nice.

A top notch place to stay in Maui. First, it's a ground floor unit so no lugging luggage, etc. up and down stairs. Second, it's a very quiet complex, so it was very relaxing at at all times. Third, Karen has it stocked like Fort Knox - we have never stayed in a VRBO so well stocked for EVERYTHING - lines, kitchen, beach items and it made it sooo easy for our stay. We had everything that we needed for the beach and you could walk across the street in 2 minutes and be at a top-notch beach w/out any hassles as a result. And sooo many restaurants were w/in walking distance - Moose McGillicuddy's was right around the corner, Kehei cafe just up the street. Do what we did and get an outside table at Fred's Mexican food right next door just before sunset and grab a margarita during happy hour and sit and watch the sunset. It was a perfect way to end our days there. It was a very special trip to us and Karen's place was just the icing on the cake.

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 wanted to stay in Kihei to be able to visit all the places on the island. The rental is in an amazing location, just few minutes from Kamaole Beach Park II, has restaurants & general stores also at a walkable distance.As for the unit itself, the 1 bed condo was well kept and had everything we need. The management was also responsive to our questions. The unit also came with lots of beach gear like towels, chairs, cooler, toys to make a day on the beach fun and relaxing. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to stay in Kihei.

Pros: plenty of hot water, central location steps away from the beach, nice quiet patio to enjoy coffee and breakfast in the morning. Owners are quick to respond and helpful. Check-in was very easy. Cons: the maintenance of this space was clearly bare minimum. We felt a little fooled by the listing. We specifically booked this space because of the abundance of beach equipment pictured, however, once we arrived most of the equipment was broken, and some equipment listed were not available in the unit. The unit itself was quite dirty; and I want to emphasize that it is NOT because of the cleaning staff, but rather because detailed care of this space has not been maintained. It is clear that there are back to back bookings with minimal maintenance, and owners live out of state. Next time I stay in Maui, I will book at a hotel, at least there would be a front desk to complain to, rather than the complaints being put on the cleaning staff (it's not their fault). The bed needs updating, it is clearly well used, and the frame is not sturdy. Overall, I'd give the space a 2.5 out of 5 stars. There is also no blinds in the front space, so whoever sleeps on the sofa beds have no privacy. It was just myself and my husband so we did not have this issue. Overall, it did not negatively impact our time in Maui, but we were disappointed in the space and felt fooled by the listing.

Checkin check out processes were seamless. Excellent communication from host. Unit was professionally cleaned and had all the amenities for stay including kitchen ware and beach supplies. The place right across the street from beautiful kamaole beach as advertised. One suggestion for the host would be to make some closet space for people to unpack our stuff during the stay.

This was my second stay at this unit and definitely not my last! The unit is set back in the complex making for a quiet stay no road noice just the lovely birds to serenade. Conveniently located across from the pool. The unit is well equipped and has everything you need for comfortable stay. The lanai has a peaceful garden view with a peekaboo view of the ocean. Very lovely, I would highly recommend!

I want to first mention that Robert is a wonderful host! He was very responsive to our last minute needs. Our trip home was delayed , oh darn, due to weather. We had to scramble to find other accommodations. We only wish we had found this condo a week earlier. The condo is wonderful. The view of the beach at sunset was beautiful. The condo was spotless. It's completely stocked with all your cooking needs, including beach towels and chairs. The grounds are very nice and well kept. We did not get a chance to use the pool, but it looks very nice and refreshing. You are within walking distance to most of the local stores and restaurants. We do plan to visit Kihei again, and hopefully we will be able to stay here. It was wonderful!! aThconisstcThecondheverythiiisTHEiswderful.

My husband and I stayed at Bob’s again this year with our toddler and 9 month old. Our stay was just as fabulous as last year! As I said last year, the location is unbeatable and truly enhanced the quality of our trip. The sunsets from the condo were superb. This year we discovered a little path between Kam 2 and Kam 1 that overlooked a rocky area where a group of turtles hung out in the morning. We even had a couple of turtles swim past us at Kam 2. We can hardly wait to return!

We had a lovely stay. It was perfect for our needs. The location is excellent. We snorkeled at Kamaole Beach II right across the street and saw lots of fish and sea turtles. There are many walkable places to eat, get coffee, shave ice, shopping, etc. We never had trouble getting a good parking spot. The A/C was much more needed that i thought it would be, so be sure you get a place with A/C. I would absolutely stay here again, but would bring my own pillow. The ones here are very full or very flat, but I'm picky about my pillows so I won't hold it against them. Just letting you know so you can plan accordingly. Thank you so much for sharing you little piece of paradise with us! Can't wait to come back!!
