Lauloa

Lauloa is a small, quiet complex on a Maalaea seawall, where turtles feed below the lanais, humpbacks pass through the bay in winter, and the harbor and a long sandy beach are a short walk away. It suits couples and families who want a calm, central base for exploring Maui rather than resort nightlife.

What guests say

1 in 3 reviews mention sea turtles1 in 6 reviews mention whales

Guests love

  • Turtles along the seawall. Guests watch sea turtles feeding off the rocks all day from their lanais and the lawn, and some see them haul out on the sand near the complex at sunset.
  • Whales from the lanai. From December through March, many guests spend hours on the lanai watching humpbacks spout and breach in the bay, and a few bring binoculars.
  • Harbor and beach on foot. An easy walk along the water leads to the harbor's boat tours, the aquarium, shops and cafes, and a long, uncrowded sandy beach sits at the end of the road.
  • Quiet sunrises and surf. Guests describe a calm, friendly complex with well-kept lawns, where mornings start with sunrise over Haleakala and the sound of waves on the seawall.

Worth knowing

  • Maalaea is windy. Several guests mention strong wind, especially in the evenings, and one heard it howling through the doors. Others like the breezes, which often mean little need for AC.
  • Seawall, not a beach. There is no sand in front of the building, just rocks and steps down to the water for snorkelers. The swimming beach is a short walk down the street.
  • Small, sunny pool. The pool is small, unheated and has no shade, and a few guests found the pool rules strict. Most still had it nearly to themselves.
  • Plan to drive for more. Only a handful of restaurants are within walking distance, and a few guests note that most dining, shopping and the resort beaches are a drive away.
Choosing a unit: Ground-floor units open straight onto the lawn and pool, which families with kids enjoy, but a few guests in units beside or just above the pool and office were bothered by noise. Light sleepers may prefer a higher floor.

The condo was very clean and well put together. Everything you need to feel comfortable away from home is provided. There were extra blankets and pillows if needed, more than enough towels and beach towels. There is an AC unit in every room that work great. Susan really thought about all the small details and it shows! I am so glad I booked this condo for our vacation, my kids cried when we left lol.

We really enjoyed the place and appreciated its central location and being directly on the water is huge plus, though it is windy. The views are amazing and we enjoyed the furnishings, modern kitchen and nice bathrooms. The unit was nicely cleaned. We stayed in a warm period and possible guests should know that this condo has an excellent and modern room by room controlled split AC system. Many rental places in Hawaii don't have AC and some only have a unit in one bedroom or it is noisy and older. What this place has is a major plus.

The view was amazing, and this condo is centrally located. The property manager can be difficult, but we didn’t let that ruin our stay. We love visiting Maui!

This property was excellent! The view was incredible, the space was clean and comfortable, and we had an excellent stay. It was nice to have a pool to use, and the property is close to the harbor, which was great for when you take a boat out to snorkel at Molokini! The amenities were all super helpful, like beach towels and chairs. Would definitely stay here again!

The internet is horrible. Umbrella was broken, I replaced it with a much nicer umbrella. Everything was perfect except internet.

★★★★★ June 2026

Property was great, however the pool was closed first for filter problems and then for new fencing for four weeks. That’s one of the reason we rented there, a nice big pool. They arranged to use neighboring pool but you had to call the office and get a key and always had to leave a message so that didn’t work out!!One night we had black flying bugs in living room so we sprayed bug spray and thought they were gone. When we went in bedroom they were all over our bed, more spray and vacuumed bed and had to wash sheets and dry them, it was awful!! Very disappointing!! I will say the lanai was very nice to sit and hear the ocean! Thanks for listening,

Condo was great and communication with the host was excellent. The host left us a couple surprises that made the stay feel more personable. We really liked the modern design, the furnishings and the custom lighting. Having 3 separate mini split systems was terrific and allowed precise temperature control in the main living area and each of the bedrooms. Be aware that the condo sits on Maalaea Bay which is notoriously windy. We did try to visit the pool one day and were disappointed that it wasn't as warm as we expected. Perhaps it's only heated during certain times of the year. Parking was never an issue and there were always open spots available. Overall, we were very pleased with this condo and wouldn't hesitate to book it again.

We couldn't figure out the 70" tv, but we weren't there to watch it or be inside. We enjoyed the area. We did alot of driving as shopping and great restaurants weren't close. We thought Ivan did a great maintaining the grounds and pool. Overall, we were very happy and enjoyed ourselves. Thanks.

The closest condos to Maalaea Harbor, a short walk to the boats, the aquarium and a few casual restaurants. Turtles feed off the seawall most days and the sun rises over Haleakala; there's no sand out front, so swimmers walk down to Baby Beach.

Just 42 units on the long walking sand of Sugar Beach, beside the Koieie Fishpond where green sea turtles rest. Most rentals have ocean views, rare for North Kihei; the shore gets rocky and windy by afternoon, so many swim elsewhere and return for sunset.
