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.

Karen was a wonderful, accommodating host, and the condo was spotless with everything I needed for a weekend in Kihei. Beach gear was in great shape, condo was cozy and in an amazing location right next to Kamaole 2. Being a corner unit on the second floor made for a quiet stay with a lovely breeze through the windows and lanai screen door. Would very happily stay here again. Mahalo!

Great Unit, quiet location, but easy walking to great restaurants, shopping and beaches, high end lockbox so avoided having to keep track of keys, washer and dryer in the unit a huge plus. Quality bedding, towels, etc. Highly recommend this condo.

We stayed 9 nights here and it was perfect. Great location, really comfortable, tasteful accommodations (with AC!) and the host was welcoming and an excellent communicator. Kitchen was well equipped and a super comfortable bed and bedroom. My husband loved the cherry wood cabinets. We would definitely come back to this condo when visiting Maui again. Thank you Mark and Pam!

Condo was very comfortable and in a great location. Good view of the ocean from the balcony. The beach was a 100 meter walk from the front door of the unit. Lots of restaurants within walking distance. The host had a lot of helpful suggestions. Highly recommended!

The bed was really uncomfortable- after the 8th night I slept on the floor. Had to get a massage and was in pain. No can opener and lacked some basic kitchen items. Sadly it is in a beautiful location, but is in need of updates.

November 2025

Amazing location, great unit. The deck is awesome. Very roomy. The big bummer was the lack of decent curtains in the bedroom. At first light, the bedroom will flood with light as the windows are on the east and northeast walls. My fiancee barely got any sleep throughout the stay and so you know what that means for me. So while I loved many parts of the condo, the curtains, and lacking of them, overshadowed a lot of it so that kicks a 4 or 5 down to a 3 for me, unfortunately.

A little dated but clean,carpet in bedroom and living room.We were woken up by delivery trucks a couple of mornings at 3 am,turned on the air to drown it out.Beautiful lanai!

We didn’t use the kitchen. The floor cloudHave been cleaner. I wish the listing stated that there was only air conditioning in the living room. The bedroom was very hot! The view of the homeless encampment from the deck was not good

Have stayed in many Kihei Kai Nani condos and condos elsewhere. This was the best equipped condo I have ever been in. It had EVERYTHING one might need or want. It was clean, comfortable, great on-site owners in case there is an issue, great location. Highly, highly recommend this condo!

Jack has a top-notch response time and is a great host. We love staying at Kihei Kai Nani. The atmosphere is laid back and relaxing. The beach is across the road. A rinse station is provided at the entrance of the parking lot so you can rinse off before returning. We had everything we needed to enjoy ourselves.

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: This rental is situated in a perfect location, especially if you don't have a car. It was super clean, and the grounds are immaculately manicured. Steps from the pool which was really nice and friendly, as well as steps from the beach. Restaurants, shops and happy hour a few minute walk. Other residents are very respectful, it's not a loud party place. I had a restful getaway and great place to work remotely. I would love to come back!

We are return visitors to Mr. Wilson's Condos for 15 years. There is not much more we can say about this excellent host and property. Truly 5 star. The location is perfect, directly across the street from the beach with restaurants in walking distance. The condo is very clean, fully equipped, and very comfortable. Pool is large and spacious for tanning, relaxing after a morning at the beach. Don't miss this opportunity to enjoy paradise.

What dishes we had were nice but it would have been nice to have more than 3 dinner plates. The floor could have been scrubbed. The biggest disappointment was having cockroaches in the condo. I understand Hawaii has pests however they were very well established and when we asked for help. Sunny vacations gave us one bait trap. We pray we don’t bring them home with us. It was very uncomfortable looking for bugs for all the time. The two we killed last were huge!

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.
