This condo is the most beautiful sanctuary on Maui! The host was so welcoming in their communication and helping us. The view of this unit cannot be more beautiful. The condo is appointed with beautiful furniture and decorations that make you feel peaceful and happy I have been staying in this location on Maui for 12 years and I have never felt so serene and happy. This unit deserves far more than five stars outstanding

The condo was clean and stocked with enough towels, laundry detergent, etc for us to use for the week. The view was absolutely amazing (even though the deck doesn’t really look like this picture with the pretty decorations). We were able to see whales, dolphins, rainbows, and sunsets off the deck.

Very comfortable, well appointed condo. The host has provided many things to make your stay more comfortable from basic condiments to beach chairs, laundry detergent, napkins and cleaning supplies. The views are stunning with no palm trees to block your view of the whales and turtles that you can watch from your lanai.

We had an amazing stay!! Even with the power out - was shut down by the power company for all of West Maui for the first 24 hours of our stay -but they had a battery powered lantern in the unit for light and we had running water. The facility had generator power for the main floor. The owner Leesa was wonderful in communicating with us during this whole shut down. She even comped a meal for our troubles - which was totally unexpected! We saw whales every day out off our lanai!! The condo has everything you could want for cooking and baking and very high quality appointments! This is a great place to stay!!

Everything was amazing! The view from the balcony was perfect for watching whales, sea turtles, and monk seals (we saw 2 swim pass!). We even saw a manta ray! The condo was beautify appointed and had everything we could have possibly needed. The beach outside was wonderful and the snorkeling is fantastic. There are tons of great food, coffee and shopping within walking distance. The check in and check out process was a breeze. David and Vanessa are wonderful hosts and I highly recommend their condo. It was perfect - we will definitely be back!

We absolutely love staying at the Mahana — the location and view truly can’t be beat. Waking up to the ocean every morning is unbeatable.Kathy is a wonderful host! Her communication was excellent, and she has great knowledge of the island, which was very helpful. She was also able to accommodate an early check-in, which we really appreciated.The bed was comfortable, and although we didn’t cook during our stay, the kitchen appeared to be well equipped for anyone who plans to.

Sarah was a fantastic host. We really enjoyed this property. We had whale activity pretty much all day every day! The condominium was very clean and well stocked. The pool and hot tub were very clean and perfect temperature. The grocery store was very close and we enjoyed walking to the food trucks nearby. Would stay here again for sure!

A beautiful, well-appointed condo with excellent views. On-island contact was professional and communicative. Artwork and decor within the condo is especially beautiful. Views of Lānaʻi from the balcony are mostly blocked by an (admittedly very atmospheric) palm tree but you are instead rewarded by lovely views of Moloka'i and the constant sound of waves.

This was our second stay at the Mahana, and once again the oceanfront location was unbeatable. The condo was in excellent condition and appeared to have newer furniture and large TVs. The kitchen and bathroom were well stocked with all the essentials we needed, and everything was very clean. We especially loved the lanai - perfect for whale watching - and we appreciated having beach chairs and a cooler available. The welcome snack on arrival was a nice touch. Communication with the host was fast and easy, and we were able to arrange a late checkout for a small fee, which was very convenient. We appreciated the discounted tour activities that were included, and the location for the tours was close to the condo. Overall, a fantastic stay and we would happily return.

This place is amazing! The host has thought of everything to make for a perfect stay, including information and details leading up to our arrival.The condo is true ocean-front: the views are exactly what you dream of. We watched two sea turtles separately lay eggs on the beach from the deck, and we were able to observe many whales breaching from the deck as well.We will definitely stay in this unit on future Maui trips!

My wife and I spent 14 nights in this unit. The best attribute that we found was the view from the lanai, which was spectacular. The common areas of the Mahana are well maintained. We used the heated pool several times and the BBQ grills. We found the lanai deck was dirty, but we purchased a mop and cleaned that ourselves. The screen and glass slider tracks to the lanai were extremely corroded causing the screen and glass sliders to stick, and one screen often comes off as it needs adjustment. One picture on the website showed 2 lamps in the bedroom, however, there was one lamp when we arrived. The other lamp was in a closet without a shade. We purchased about 100 of housekeeping and home wares to make our 14 day stay more comfortable.

I have been traveling to the Hawaiian Islands almost annually for over 50 years, and this could be the best place in which I have ever stayed. If you are looking for amazing views, a quiet building, a great pool for relaxing, direct beach access, and amazing views of whales, turtles, Lanai, Molokai and sunsets, then look no further. I had planned to cook most of my meals and was pleased to find a kitchen that was incredibly well-equipped. Seriously. This included every appliance I needed, a good set of sharp knives, a coffee grinder in addition to the coffee maker, and plenty more. The unit has beach chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, a cooler, and everything you could possibly need for your stay. The boardwalk from this hotel down to Kahekili and beyond was so convenient for evening strolls. A great fish market is walking distance. The communication was phenomenal, from the day I reserved the unit until after I had departed from Maui. I really can’t say enough about this unit. I will definitely be back.

The location of the Mahana cannot be beat and an oceanfront condo is very scarce in Kaanapali. With this particular studio condo, everything was great. Maui Paradise Properties welcome instructions on how to get parking pass were good. Entry instructions were good. Kitchen was exceptionally stocked for the amount of space available in a studio. Condo felt spacious. There was plenty of room between bed, dining, and kitchen areas. Highly recommend this condo and Maui Paradise Properties.

The location is amazing ! Grounds and jungle type entry was magical. The view from the 7th floor was our absolute favorite ! While we were there for our 2 weeks stay we got to see Honu, Whales and beautiful sunsets daily from our lanai . The Unit was clean and comfortable and owner was responsive. Special touch with island treats and coffee.

This unit definitely lives up to the photos and the accolades it's received. The views both down the length of Kaanapali and out to Lanai and Molokai are spectacular from the 9th floor location. And the decor is among the most tasteful and well coordinated that we have seen in the many places we have stayed. The furnishings are very high quality and the kitchen very functional. The unit location at the end of the corridor helped make our stay very peaceful and quiet. Would highly recommend. If we were to identify anything that was less than optimal, the twin beds in the second bedroom were firmer than we would have preferred, but that is undoubtedly a matter of individual preference.

The views from the patio/balcony or the swivel chairs inside (floor to ceiling windows) was magnificent! No need to do a whale watching or turtle tour as they are visible daily from the patio/balcony or living room. Having the sliding glass doors open in the living room and bedroom at night was spectacular! The proximity to activities is ideal. Walkable beaches for quite a ways. BBQ area was nice and food truck options within walking distance. This was a true jem, didn’t want to leave! Can’t wait to come back.

This condo is very old and in need of significant updating and upkeep. The furniture, fixtures, and overall condition are dated, and there are visible maintenance issues.The most serious issue occurred on our third day. After returning from the beach, we opened the door and were immediately hit with an extremely strong medicinal/alcohol-like smell throughout the condo. The odor was overwhelming and clearly coming from the air-conditioning unit. We felt dizzy and unwell and had to open all windows and doors to ventilate the space.We contacted all listed property contacts due to the seriousness of the issue, especially since we were with our children. We were told someone would inspect the unit, so we left the condo for several hours. After more than 4 hours with no update, we followed up and were told someone had already been there and that “nothing was wrong” and no smell was detected, despite the odor being unmistakable.Customer service later told us there were no alternate accommodations and suggested we stay elsewhere and seek reimbursement later. We were promised follow-up the next day, which never happened. Out of concern for our health, we did not use the air conditioner for the remainder of our stay and kept the windows open instead. There was clearly something wrong with the unit despite management denying it.The only positive is the waterfront location and view, though the ocean directly in front is rocky and not suitable for swimming.We will not be returning

The view is definitely outstanding and the location is convenient. What really stands out, however, is the host and the many ways he adds to the experience. The room has been tastefully updated. There has been a lot of thought put into amenities that make the stay nicer and more comfortable such as: L’Occitane toiletries, charging pads at the bedsides, makeup mirror, coffee, Brita pitcher, comfortable seating on the lanai, great mattress and linens, etc. He provides clear and complete information about the rental, follows-up quickly to emails, and leaves handy reminders about WiFi passwords and easy check-out instructions. We have been having more mediocre experiences with VRBO rentals of late (including a stay on the southern end of the island before we arrived here), but this experience has restored our faith in the model. The host has a very good property to work with but it’s his care and attention to detail that makes it really outstanding.
