This property is amazing. It is an end unit 10’ from the ocean with ocean view from every and crashing wave you can fall asleep to. The condo is clean and spacious with an upstairs bedroom and bath. Very comfortable with a nice kitchen with ocean views also. The pool is great for kids. And the property is beautiful. The ocean is accessible from the other side of the property for surfing, paddle boarding, snorkeling, ect. Lots of turtles and whales viewed from the deck. Very satisfying.

This vrbo is very private and laid back. We enjoyed the sound of the ocean at night and we were able to watch sea turtles and whales from our lanai. It was a perfect place to relax. There were barbecues available for use and everything we needed was there. Thank you!

We used the condo as a base to explore Napili and Fleming beaches, saw turtles just around the corner from the condo, and had a couple amazing dinners in Kanapaali. It’s a short drive there and to Napili, but there is not too much in the way of restaurants or shops in walking distance. We did hit Miso Phat for yummy sushi, and the Whaler’s general store - both walkable. The warm, ocean front pool and stunning views were icing on the cake for our stay. And the condo comfortably slept 5 adults.

Wonderful property. Right on the water. It was great to listen to the surf from the condo. We saw whales breaching from the condo and enjoyed daily visits to the shore to watch the sea turtles. The pool is warm and great for the kids. Excellent hosts. We'll definitely return to this property if we come back to Maui.

I enjoy this resort. It is quiet and relaxing. I was happy with the condo. The bed was comfortable. I liked the view. I was able to watch the whales right from the lanai. Love the turtles. The only thing I could suggest is adding a can opener and some pot holders to the kitchen.

The view from the room and property was amazing. Sitting right on the waters edge and short walk down to a beach. Had access to ocean straight from property where you could stand on rocks and watch the sea turtles. We even caught a glimpse of some whales passing by while grilling in the well maintained gas grills. Kids enjoyed the pool in the evenings while we cooked at grill and watched beautiful sunsets. Our room had enough beds for all 3 children to have their own 2 in the loft and a softer sleeper. No a/c but was not needed as the fans supplied kept us comfortable in early December. We felt comfortable and at home during our wonderful stay. Would gladly stay here again in the future!

We loved our stay! The home was clean and well-stocked with towels, blankets, soaps/paper towels/coffee. There was a full kitchen with everything we needed and the beach gear was a great plus. We used the two sets of snorkel gear and it was great not to have to rent the gear elsewhere. You can see and hear the ocean from the lanai, and the location is easy to get around all of West Maui. One parking pass with spots always available in the lot. Thanks!

Stayed here in January 2023 with 6 adults. A bit small for 6 adults but we made it work and the views made it all worthwhile. Able to see whales from the patio all day long. Beautiful grounds, turtles right on the beach every day, pool always clean. Management group offered us late check out towards the end of our stay. Fantastic location & would definitely stay again. (forgot to make this review after our visit, leaving it now after the heartbreaking Lahaina fire). This was our first visit to Maui - our thoughts & love to all.

My family lives on another part of the island and we stayed at the Turtle Condo for a long weekend to celebrate my nephew’s birthday. The location was beautiful and the condo was comfortable and well appointed. The kids loved the pool and the beaches were great. Saw so many turtles. The grill area was well set up and beautiful for sunset. Enjoyed the beautiful views from the lanai. Thank you for a lovely stay.

The condo was as deceived and very clean. The view is incredible with the most amazing ocean views from every window. Good, clean pool; grills; decent parking; and great snorkeling just steps from the condo. We saw dozens of sea turtles, lots of fish, and a couple of eels. I will definitely stay here again if I come back to Maui!

The location was perfect. The property was well manicured and beautiful. Probably the best view from a BBQ that I’ve ever seen. It was awesome to watch all the turtles swim and sun themselves in the beach. AC would be nice if we happened to be indoors in the afternoon, but that was not much of a problem. Would definitely stay again.

Turtles just off the coast a few steps away from the door and they swim by the rocks seen from the balcony. The condo is clean, comfortable, well stocked and in a great location. The view from the balcony is sweeping and sunset is a great time to enjoy the courtyard for the views. The hosts do a great job of providing information of the area and the arrival/departure process. Thanks for a great stay!

I didn't love anything. When I checked in, it was already after 10pm. I found all the appliances pulled away from the walls, the dishes and utensils were put onto the couch area and several outlet/light covers had been removed. I took photos and emailed them to Vacasa customer service. They responded by saying that because it was late, the local representative would contact me the following morning. The next morning I received a call from the local representative who informed me that there was a scheduled pest control service and if it was okay for them to perform the service at that time (around 9:30am). I had already left the room and would not be available till late afternoon. The local rep said that they could have me stay in another room that night. I went to see the rep at about 4pm and he said it was taken care of. I didn't think they would enter my room without my permission, but they had entered and I also didn't realize that they had treated the room with some kind of chemical(s). I had asked the rep if I am changing rooms, and he said there was no need to as it had been taken care of. Had I known that they had sprayed something in the room, I would have insisted on not sleeping in the room. I left the room to go to dinner with friends, so I was in the room for only a few minutes and returned later that night after 10pm once again. I took a shower and tried to sleep, but because of the chemical treatment, I got a headache and was having trouble breathing. I trie
