Everything as advertised! Loved waking up to ocean view! We could see sea turtles in the surf from the lanai. Reef is right there- perfect for snorkeling. I’m not sure how great it is for swimming- at low tide the reef is exposed, not a sandy bottom. Wonderful stay!

This place is amazing!! We stayed here for 2 weeks and there was something amazing to see everyday right from the patio.We could see turtles in the water pretty much all day long. We saw 1 whale and a group of about 50 spinner dolphins.The view is incredible, it’s so close to the water you have to look down to see the beach otherwise all you see is water. I was a bit concerned that it was on the 10th floor but there’s 2 elevators just steps from the door that we never waited more than 30 seconds for one. I enjoyed walking the boardwalk that starts right next to the building. It was nice that there was beach chairs,snorkel and goggles and a cooler available in the condo to use. The bed was very comfortable and condo is well equipped with everything we needed and more. If you’re thinking about renting this place stop thinking about it and just do it you won’t regret it.We will definitely be going back. Thank You!!

Kudos to the owner for installing extra air- conditioners in each room.This was crucial as the entire building is without A/C until the end of July due to roof repair!

We loved listening to the sounds of the surf at night. The sunsets were awesome in this unit. I had a few communications with the manager that were responded to immediately. This location was awesome. The walkability is exceptional and rare. We will try to return.

Everything about this place was great. Incredible views, very well stocked kitchen, thoughtful accommodations like the small ice chests and beach chairs. Great attention to detail. As far as the property, its a 5 minute walk to duke's or the shopping center, quiet, even though its on the 10th floor, the elevator is quick, trash chute is convenient! Great experience!

Property itself is fine. Still waiting for $600 refund (10 days@$60 per day) for no A/C and construction noise. Left message for Alicia. No response yet. She earlier said it would be handled through VRBO at the conclusion of our stay.

Perfection vacation. Host went out of their way to make sure we had a comfortable stay. Views were beautiful beyond words. 3 great restaurants and fabulous snorkeling a short walk (seconds) from your door. Sleeping with the sounds of crashing waves, best therapy ever. Couldn’t give a higher recommendation.

Islands of Lanai and Molokai flank the ocean view to the West. Sea turtles feeding daily were easily seen from the condo. We were fortunate to catch glimpse of a whale beaching as well. Sound of the surf was relaxing throughout the day and into the night. Ocean temperature was cold relative to the Caribbean Sea however it was a refreshing one time change of place.

We could not have picked a more perfect place to stay in Maui. The condo was perfectly situated on a beach. Sound of the waves forced us to relax and rejuvenate. From the condo we watched whales play, turtles swim and monk seals sunbathe. Highly recommended!

This property was perfect in every way! Easy check-in, clean, all the amenities you need, ocean views from private patio, walking distance to food truck park and snorkel and other shops across the street. We loved watching sunsets in the evening and whale watching in the morning right from the patio! The pool on the property was nice, but we also enjoyed snorkeling in the reefs right behind the property.

Celebrated our 40th anniversary on Kauai & Maui. Holly's place on Maui was perfect! The view can't be beat! Turtles playing in the surf everyday around 5pm. Surprisingly, we loved being on the 2nd floor; the ocean felt so close and the view was beautiful. Communication with Holly was easy. There was a plumbing issue in the bathroom which was resolved fairly quickly and we were happy with Holly's response. We loved our time there and wish we could go back. Stay here if you ever get the opportunity!!

10 nights in paradise in 1 BR, 1 BA. First impression walking through the door is amazing seeing the floor to ceiling windows overlooking the vast blue South Pacific Ocean. Communication with the super host and management company. Everyday was better than the last. This was the fourth visit to maui and we always return to the same spot. It is amongst the best.

This place truly beautiful from the sunrise to the sunsets and the floor to ceiling windows truly makes you feel you are in the ocean. This place has everything you need and more. From lawn chairs, to beach umbrellas to coolers to even snorkelling gear! Not only that you are steps away from the beach! Crystal was also a great host and responded promptly! We can’t wait to come back and stay here again! Thank you Crystal and Maui for your hospitality!

After leaving our rental in Wailea due to unexpected construction right next to our unit, we were all tired, grumpy and not happy about losing a day of our vacation to move somewhere else. The minute we walked into Heather’s beautiful unit, we left the bad vibes behind. The views and sound of the waves are fantastic. You can’t get much closer to the ocean. The kitchen is well stocked. The king bed was comfy. The single beds not as comfy as the king that had the memory foam. Pool area was on the small side, but clean and just the right temperature. It was so nice to not have to go far to get to the beach! Would definitely stay here again! Thank-you Heather and Charles for being so accommodating.

What a wonderful space and the view! Whales, turtles in the surf and 180 degree views of the ocean. Very private. We loved it!

My wife and I really enjoyed our stay at this VRBO on Ka’anapali beach! The views from the room are amazing and you couldn’t be closer to the beach. You are also super close to a walking path that goes by all of the big resorts on that side of the beach and lots of restaurants. Room came with beach chairs and umbrella, and the condo building had fresh towels to use by the pool everyday. The apartment itself was very spacious for a one bed and well appointed. We would definitely recommend to anyone looking to book in Maui!

The view is spectacular. We have stayed at this condo complex many times. This one, although clean and spacious, does need some updates. The rental company was very accomodating and very quickly and graciously addressed any of our concerns. we enjoyed our stay tremendously.

Our last second getaway could not have been any better. Unlike some others I'd read about in this building, this unit was spotless with everything up-to-date. The best -- and the reason we'll return -- is the location. On the 11th floor overlooking the Ocean. Lanai on the left, Molokai on the right and nothing but the sounds of the ocean 24/7. There's not as much on-site activities as other units around, but that's just fine. I wouldn't trade the evening sunsets and the sounds of the ocean for anything. We usually had a big lunch somewhere, brought home leftovers and sat out on the balcony with cheese, crackers, wine and/or beer, and totally relaxed at night. It was a true vacation -- not a rat race. Mahalo for this much-needed break.

The property had everything we needed and more. When booking a place the view was our top priority. It was stunning to wake up and have breakfast, lunch, and dinner on the balcony. I will say you can still hear everything outside like the wind but the waves were so soothing. I would definitely stay here again.

My family is always excited about a trip to any of the Hawaiian islands but this location might be our favorite. The condo was perfect for my family of 4 (16 & 11 y/o kids). The condo has the Hawaiian vibe, spacious, modern and clean. We shockingly spent more time in the 2 captains chairs than the balcony. The floor to ceiling windows set the tone of comfort and relaxation. Much to our surprise the whale watching was amazing. It was so great from the condo, it prompted us to book a formal whale watching tour and ultimately we had way more sightings from the condo! Heather and Charles were so delightful, informative and helpful. We will definitely be back!

From the wonderful and kind communication by the owners to the unbelievably stocked unit this spot is beyond 5/5. One of the most beautifully decorated and situated properties I’ve ever stayed at. Gorgeous, serene, luxurious… but dreamy✨

We have stayed at the Aston Mahana 10 or so times and this was by far the best unit. The large 2 bedroom corner unit had sweeping views of the ocean, reef full of turtles, whales in the distance, mountains, Molokai, Lanai, and Black Rock. Dukes Beach House and the Kaanapali boardwalk were also right there. This was the perfect spot for my family since we have a 2 year old and we could enjoy the views while he took naps. The place was also nicely furnished and the concierge team was very responsive. We will be back again!
