This was a beautiful condo that really fulfilled all our needs in Maui. The photos are accurate and it has amazing views of the ocean. The location is excellent and walking distance to beaches and restaurants. It's also a short drive from many other great places in the area. The climate control for the condo is excellent with very effective A/C. There are some maintenance related issues that need to be seen to, and we found communication with Vacasa to be challenging when issues arose. I don't think this detracted much from the stay but I suspect some people would find this to be a burden.

Property was in great location with free parking. The view and layout were great. The check in process is slightly confusing, since there are two towers on the property. There is no direction as to which tower the room is in however, they are both close and only a little inconvenient to figure out.While attempting to find the location, I contacted the property manager, to no avail. And never got a text or call back to see if everything was figured out.The location was clean with the exception of having roaches in the kitchen. They appeared to be within the walls, and mainly coming from the kitchen sink, dishwasher, trash bin and cabinets. Over our four night stay we probably killed around 20-30 of them.Overall the place was fine, but due to the bug problem would not choose to stay at this location again.

The unit above us was under construction with power tools everyday but the weekend. Other than that it was good. I have stayed there before. Great area

This was a great find. Any closer to water you'd be in it. Very clean. With all the essentials.

Our first visit to Maui couldn't have been more magical, thanks to this perfect condo and its unbeatable location. Waking up to direct oceanfront views—where we were lucky enough to spot two whales and countless turtles from the lanai—was truly unforgettable. The Mahana resort, with its peaceful and intimate atmosphere, made for the ideal setting to celebrate our anniversary in tranquility. The condo had everything we needed, allowing us to enjoy leisurely breakfasts at home, accompanied by breathtaking views that never got old. It was the ultimate getaway, blending comfort, serenity, and the beauty of Maui into one incredible experience. We will return! Mahalo

For my family of 4 I can't imagine a better place to stay. The Condo was clean and the owners were easy to work with and very helpful. Almost anything you could need for a stay was in the unit. The view was unbelievable. We absolutely would like to stay here again.

This unit and property was everything and more! It looks even better than the pictures. The view was absolutely amazing, and so so close to the water. The property was well kept and had great areas to hangout at. The unit was equipped with everything we needed from towels, to pots and pans. The one thing it didn’t have was shampoo/conditioner. They did have a small body soap har but you’ll need more if you’re there a lil longer. However, it wasn’t a big deal at all. That’s just an fyi:) The living room couch and chairs were comfy (plenty of seating) and the bed was so soft. There isn’t a thing to complain about.Alicia, well she is the icing on the cake. She is so kind and responsive. Her communication before our stay was impeccable. We had a last min family emergency and had to adjust our days a bit and luckily she graciously allowed us to.We hope to be back again!

We have stayed at the Mahana in another room. This room was even better. The room set up is great and the view is spectacular. Really enjoyed our stay. Hosts were very helpful and responsive. Would love to stay here again. Thank you!

There's a reason this place has a 10/10 rating - it's kinda perfect! We went in with pretty high expectations (based on the pictures and reviews) and every single one was exceeded. The location is spectacular (when they say "right on the beach" it's literal), the space is gorgeous and super well appointed, and Sarah couldn't have been kinder or more accommodating. We had a glorious stay, including hours on the lanai watching dolphins and se turtles and even had a visit from (and apparently low-key famous) seal. We'd go back in a heart-beat and would recommend it to anyone.

Wow! You will not find a property with a better view closer to the ocean!. The condo building is low key, easily accessible, and is easily the closest building to the ocean of any property we saw in the area. It's like being on a cruise ship it is so close!The property is directly adjacent to the beach walk boardwalk that stretches for 3.5 miles to the south.As vacation home owners ourselves, hats off to these owners, the condo is well apportioned and thought out. Check in was easy!

Location was superb! The view and ocean sounds were amazing. You can't help but take in the amazing views from the living room and bedroom. Unfortunately, there were some communication issues with the management company when I arrived and I contacted another # provided in the listing and was slightly scolded by the management company for contacting the other number - which happened to be the owner. I will note, the owner is VERY kind and responsive so that is why I didn't give lesser stars for communication. Regarding cleanliness, I could not give less than 3 stars. When I arrived, there was a pair of (what appeared to be used/worn underwear) left on the floor in the master bedroom. When I contacted the property manager, I was asked if someone needed to come to the room and dispose of the item. I was offended. Keep in mind, this was the moment I arrived in Maui. I doubt the last thing a guest wants to do is clean up someone's underwear when they enter their paid vacation rental. Nonetheless, someone came and cleaned up the item and the owner was very apologetic about the issue. That said, I believe the property management company should take some advice from the owner on how to manage these types of issues. I think it could have been handled with a lot more understanding and cooperation. Other than that, the stay went well. Unit was stocked with beach/pool items for my stay and it was beautifully decorated.

We loved this vacation rental!!! It was everything we hoped for in a babymoon, clean, comfortable, good location. It is as stunning as the photos appear to be. The kitchen is well set up to cook, we had at least one meal every day there, including a daily mocktail. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a great place in Mauii.

Adjacent to resort with Duke's restaurant, making it a short 2 minute walk. Better beach access and views than resort, and more privacy.Be aware that the LR photo is a bit deceiving d/t wall of mirrors. Great shower, a/c and ice/water in fridge door.

Property was excellent, however the unit does not have central air due to construction. The unit had individual units in bedroom and living area. Was not bad late at night and early afternoon. But in the peak of day the living area was uncomfortable.

Absolutely loved our stay. Unit was lovely, clean and very well appointed. We were able to observe whales, dolphins and turtles from our beautiful lanai. The beach was fantastic and there was a long boardwalk for daily walks. We couldn’t have asked for anything better! Since it is a popular area reservations made well ahead of your stay makes life a bit easier unless you don’t mind long waits. We are looking forward to coming back next year!

Fantastic location on the ocean. I did not realize how loud the ocean is. Tried sleeping with the doors open and no air-conditioning. I’m not a AC person but not happening. Also, although it was not a problem, there’s no swimming of sorts until you walk down the beach about a quarter of a mile. Lots of coral reefs and lava rocks. Small unit, but almost enough for two people who like each otherBeware of food and drink prices. I have been to Maui at least 10 times or more in my life. Probably will not return..

The condo was as advertised. It was absolutely spotless when we arrived. The views were amazing from the living room and bedroom and we spent many happy hours on the lanai. Our host has this unit full of EVERYTHING we needed - I have never been in a unit that was so thoughtfully equipped for just about every circumstance. Lastly, the kitchen faucet had a problem on our 2nd day and our host had it replaced the next day! Can’t recommend enough!

Wonderful stay. It's everything advertised and more. The view is not just great for Hawaii, but world-class. You couldn't be closer to the ocean and to have a panoramic view of other Islands as well as Maui and the Ocean is terrific. We saw whales every day from the unit, and turtles or seals most days. There is a decent surfing break out front when the swell is up and you can get to a pretty good beach entry by walking down a little (the beach out front is beautiful but there is reef if you want to enter the water). The unit is very well stocked on both toys and dishes/utensils and the communication with the manager was terrific. The unit is clean and well- decorated with local art for an upscale island vibe. Couldn't recommend more.

My husband and I traveled to Maui for my 30th birthday and had the best trip imaginable. This beautiful property was a huge part of making our stay incredible. The unit is clean, comfortable, cozy, and has the most fantastic view of the ocean from the living room, master bedroom and balcony. Everything about getting to and from the property is a breeze, and Sandy is so communicative. She even helped us get a replacement hairdryer during our stay! Thank you for everything!

The design of this condo is top tier with thoughtful and classy finishes. The bedroom is spacious and relaxing, especially with the ever-present sounds and seascape of the Pacific. The large windows and generous ground floor lanai, accessible from the living room and bedroom was especially nice for connecting with the sea and island views. Getting from here to anywhere on the West coast by car was quick and easy.

Located just steps away from the hustle and bustle of the large resorts is The Mahana. We've stayed at The Mahana 4 different times because the view is unbeatable. While other places boast about ocean views, this condo is as close to the ocean as you can get. The condo itself is as advertised and clean. It is updated and has all of the items you need to make your stay easy, including beach towels and chairs.The location is perfect. You can walk to the larger resorts, food trucks, restaurants, and grocery store. However, you probably won't want to leave your lanai!
