I’d leave a 10 star review if I could! The condo is perfect in every way…clean, very well stocked with anything you’d need including beach chairs, boogie boards & snorkel gear, and the location was perfect for seeing all the sights on west side of the island. The sunsets were beautiful! Snorkeling out front was spectacular! Restaurants, food trucks & grocery store in easy walking distance! And we loved listening to the sound of the waves at night. Quyen was an outstanding host. This was an amazing place to celebrate our 35th wedding anniversary & we hope to come back soon!

This was the perfect condo for our mother-daughters trip! The beautiful photos in the Mahana 919 listing don't do it justice. We loved the spectacular views in three directions from all the floor-to-ceiling windows, the fabulous location at the end of the beachwalk (we walked here every day!), the well-appointed bathrooms and bedrooms and well-stocked kitchen and laundry area, and the easy access to a pristine beach within steps of the property. Honestly, there were days the car stayed parked, as everything we wanted was within walking distance! Not only was the condo amazing, but both Heather and manager Charles were pro-active in offering assistance, easy to contact, and very happy to help. We couldn't have had a better experience and definitely hope to stay here again!

From the booking to the check-out, the process was smooth and easy. The condo is very clean, with everything your could possibly need and the views are AMAZING! It was great to wake up to the waves and those views everyday. There were plenty of stores and restaurants within walking distance and the boardwalk was so fun to stroll on each day. We will definitely go back!

Condo is beautiful and the location/view is amazing. Many times the photos make the property look better than it really is - not the case with this one! Minor issues with the TV/cable going on the Fritz in the evenings but TV is not a big deal when you are there. Thanks!

We thoroughly enjoyed the studio. Clean, well stocked and to die for view. Felt like we were over the ocean. The sound of waves was blissful to fall asleep to and the deck an awesome spot to enjoy first cup of coffee while looking out for whales nearby.

Beautiful condo with floor to ceiling views of the ocean where we frequently saw whales and turtles. The beach was very nice, but the area overall is mostly resorts, you have to pay to park in hotel garages when visiting any of the nearby beaches. Unfortunately the property management team at Vacasa put a damper on our experience. When we checked in we learned there was planned electrical work in the building and we would be without electricity, wifi and air conditioning throughout most of the next day. We booked this as a location to work remotely from, so the lack of wifi was an issue. We reached out to Vacasa for help and they were absent and dismissive. They never responded to emails, took days to respond to messages, and when they finally did respond they just said it was “out of our control and there isn’t much we could have done.” I ended up working from my rental car in a Starbucks parking lot. When the electricity came back we texted and messaged Vacasa asking about late checkout, they didn’t respond to the request for 48 hours, after we had already checked out.

This condo was a wonderful place to celebrate Christmas in Hawaii. We appreciated the well-stocked kitchen and comfortable beds. The view from the 11th floor is spectacular; we saw lots of honu (even twice on the beach), whales, and even a shark.

Leaving the cold and upcoming East Coast storm, we arrived to amazing views, trade breeze and most of all a peaceful retreat. The Kitchen was filled with everything you would need. We loved the large walk-in shower and separate vanity. The washer and dryer came in handy. Our favorite spot was the lanai for meals and whale watching. We hope to return. Many thanks.

I really like how close to the water this condo is and you get to see whales and boats everyday from balcony. Great location walking distance to Dukes for dinner, breakfast and drinks. Had a lot of fun.

Great location to walk to the beach and snorkel.Good local restaurants, with a food truck park right outside.Couldn’t have asked for a better stay

The unit is as good as advertised. You won’t be disappointed! Perfectly located to enjoy and experience Lahaina and Maui. The unit is your perfect landing pad of comfort and relaxation amongst all your Maui activities. Steps from the beach and/or just watch the whales and turtles from the lanai. The bed was the best we’ve ever had in a rental; so much so that my wife had to find out the make and model of it for our home. Can not think of a reason to not stay here for your Maui adventure. But as a bonus, the onsite property manager, Emmett, was awesome. Great communicator and timely for anything we had questions on. Just book this already!

We enjoyed staying in this unit. It was nicely appointed with most everything we needed. The views from the lanai were amazing; great sunrises and sunsets; we saw tons of whales in the channel and turtles on the shoreline and on the beach. The property is right on the beach -- literally steps from it. The parking was easy and we never worried about finding a spot. We very much appreciated not having to pay for parking. We also loved being able to cook our own meals; the kitchen had everything we needed, though there was no salad bowl and few spoons. The shower floor was a stained but otherwise clean. The mattress could probably be replaced soon; there were very discernable "holes" on each side where people lie. The other people we met who were staying on the property were all very nice. We would definitely stay here again. Our overall experience was relaxed and pleasant -- just what we wanted. Thank you !

The property was great. Condo is on the 10th floor, providing beautiful views of the ocean. The pool and local beach was great (not too crowded). We were able to walk to many of the local restaurants.The only issue we had was not being able to use the TV in the master bedroom because the remote was lost. This issue was very minor.Communication with the host was great. We would definitely stay here again.

First, Kathy who owns this property is very responsive and seems to be a nice person - right from the booking time till my arrival, she answered all our queries and also suggested where to eat and what to do for our family/teens. The property views are amazing (ocean front view) , clear instructions to get in/check in and nice decor overall. We had some challenges for water not draining in the shower and Kathy had her cleaner come in next day to take care of it. The food trucks are walking distance which is nice and it also has a nice grocery store right across (5min drive). So, location is good and you can always work with Kathy if there's any unexpected issues that show up - she seems to want your stay to be enjoyable and very approachable. The pool is nice (wasn't crowded) and it also had a hot tub next to it which was relaxing. Thanks Kathy for sharing your condo !!

Truly paradise. It was exactly as pictured and described, but the wow factor of the view from the lanai can’t be overstated. Condo was clean and well appointed with beach chairs, beach towels, laundry & dishwasher pods, coffee & a comfy bed. Property is right on the beach, with daily turtle & whale sightings from the lanai. The washing machine was a little loud & would have liked.the use of binoculars, but would 100% recommend & stay again.

Check in easy. Owner needs to replace coffee machine, very slow leak. Slider doesn’t close completely & will not lock.Beautiful views!

The view is nice but the lanai rarely got any sun. We did enjoy watching the turtles. Not really a great beach for swimming. Know now to stay directly in Kaanapali in the future. This condo needs a remodel, it’s very dated. They should remove the carpet entirely & put terrazzo tiles throughout. The fake palm is very dusty, none of that should be in there. It would open up the room without the clutter. I could smell mildew emitting from the shag carpet in the bedroom while sleeping. It needs to go. The cleaners need to vacuum under the bed & furniture. The grout around the tiles in the shower could take some bleach as well as the grout on floors look dirty. The lounge on lanai hadn’t been used in quite awhile & was very dusty dirty shoved in the back corner which was hard to get to because the table is so large. Maybe if the cleaners noticed these things & stayed more than 40 minutes the place would be cleaner. I left as the 2 cleaners started & forgot some items in the pantry. I returned 40 minutes later & they were already gone. That was disappointing. Overall I would not stay here again. It was extremely like hurricane windy sunbathing by the pool lawn area & never let up the entire time we were there. I think it has to do with location & the funneling of wind going through Honokawaii.

This is our second time staying at this 5-star property. The unit and the views are gorgeous. Modern and immaculately clean. Well stocked. Great location in Kaapalani. Dianne, the owner, communicates super well. Highly recommend—looking forward to our next stay here.

This was our first time in Hawaii, and I must say that this condo could not have been any more perfect. The view was spectacular and the condo had absolutely everything you might need during your stay. The location was wonderful. The property had a lovely barbequing area right beside the pool and hot tub and the beach was only a few feet away. This property exceeded all my expectations. I can not say enough about our incredible stay at the Mahana. . Jim and Crystal have done a wonderful job! It's impossible to go wrong staying at this condo!

Great location! We saw a lot of whales and turtles. The beach right outside the property has rocks, so go down about 300 feet to a part of the beach without rocks. You can walk to Duke's restaurant but also drive to the great restaurants in Whaler Village. Side note: The rental could use a cocktail shaker and snorkel gear. We bought some gear and left them in the condo. We would highly recommend the unit and location.

If you're hesitant about booking don't be. Amazing views. It's the closest condo to the water and is parallel to the water not perpendicular like some. Waves sounded amazing, sunsets were amazing, and the whale watching amazing as well. Never a fight to get a chair and parking was easy. Maybe some better balcony furniture? Very quick to respond to any needs.

We absolutely loved the location and neat as a pin with great amenities. Aston Mahana has views that are amazingly better than the resorts. The others look nice but you aren’t right on the water like this one. I kept saying all week that when you look out the window it has the effect like you’re on a boat cruise because all you see is water, you’re that close. And because of that you look down watching sea turtles all day every day and whales breaching and spouting in the distance. There is a coral bed right there but don’t worry, you just walk to the left side with open beach. Water shoes are a good idea. Snorkeling will show you some great aquatic life…especially those big turtles! Right next to Duke’s to grab a mai tai or pina colada. Food truck park is neat. Don’t mind the pool is not a massive lazy river. Went next door and it’s people everywhere so we thoroughly enjoyed having the pool be lower key. Beach chairs, umbrella and coolers are in perfect shape. Been to other places where they couldn’t get your tush off the sand and the back wouldn’t stay up. Met people on their anniversary that have been coming there for 23 years. That says a lot. Next time we come back we would stay here again for sure. Used Trilogy for our Molikini snorkel and sunset whale watching apps and drinks tour. They are top notch. Definitely a gem! Everyday we pinched ourselves looking out over the water. Great communication too!

This has to be one of the nicest locations on Maui. The condo is ocean-facing with a clear 180 degree view, and the building is just a few dozen feet from the beach, if that.The condo is exactly as described. Quiet, clean and spacious.We hope to be able to stay in this unit again next year.

I will give 5 stars to the condo, it’s exactly as the pictures , beautiful views, super clean , have all the amenities, close by restaurants, best beach, only disappointment was when it advertised Rental Car included, 1 day before my arrival I was informed they do not have any more cars to rent. So don’t rely on that when booking . Everything else was perfect..

Our stay in this condo was absolutely wonderful! The space is beautifully appointed, spacious, and incredibly well-equipped. The views are breathtaking, stretching from the ocean to the mountains. We loved watching whales, turtles rolling in the surf, and surfers—all from the comfort of the living room and balcony. Sarah is an exceptional hostess, providing us with all the essential information about the condo, local activities, and great restaurant recommendations. The location is perfect! Highly recommend!

This place was absolutely jaw dropping!! Me and my husband went here for our honeymoon. The property manager had extremely quick responses with the check in process which is very easy. This place had the most beautiful view of the ocean. The Mahana was so quiet, peaceful, and relaxing. The owners of the room had everything you could ever need for a vacation. Sunscreen, shampoo, laundry pods, bandaids, goggles, beach chairs, anything you can think of they had it!! Not sure we could’ve gotten a better place to stay at for our honeymoon. We also got to see a whale from the lanai and a sea turtle! This place was perfect.

Very nice condo … beautiful view …

December 2024

This was our first time in Maui/Hawaii. Before I had placed my bags down the day we got there, I walked out to the lanai and there was a sea turtle basking on the beach! The only day we didn’t see a sea turtle swimming close to shore was the morning we left. We also saw whales from the lanai and that was pretty special.The location is perfect. Lots of good restaurants around and activities to do. We snorkeled right off the shore a couple time and saw lots of fish and more sea turtles.The condo was clean and felt like a home away from home. We would definitely recommend staying here and would love to visit this same place again in the future.

The pics do not lie! Incredible views, snorkeling right out front(on calm days), lots of turtles and whales you see right from the patio! Definitely recommend this unit!

December 2024

We would definitely stay here again if we come back to Maui. We spent so much nice family time sitting outside on the lanai, watching sunsets, looking at the stars, spotting sea turtles, watching surfers. A short walk down the boardwalk to snorkel everyday. it was real nice having a washer and dryer, beach chairs, and a cooler. Only thing that could be improved are a few basic kitchen essentials. Such as pot holders, salt/pepper, and enough dishwasher tablets to run a load each day. We loved the locations, and were really comfortable there.
