We loved being centrally located between two stretches of beach. The furnishings and dishes were fine but ceiling tiles fell out in bathroom when we closed the door. The nearby food trucks and grocery store were very convenient. And a quick walk through the parking lot to Dukes was an added bonus

Stan is awesome and we had the absolute perfect stay here. The view is a spiritual experience to say the least and the unit is perfect. We will be back, no doubt!!

Ka’anapali Shores is showing its age a little, but it’s a nice quiet place to stay, with good pools, not too crowded, and close to Whalers Village, other shopping, and lots of great beaches. This condo had lots of nice extras for us, like a closet full of beach accessories. The owner was easy to work with and easy to contact.

This is a wonderful place; you can walk to a number of places, and a short drive for others. The accommodation is nice. We were able to go snorkeling right outside of the door. You will see turtles swimming past. There are some interesting hikes nearby. Restaurants are close. It was a fun and relaxing stay for us.

We arrived to a spotless place to stay with perfect instructions on checking in and out. The property is perfectly appointed and we wanted for nothing. Morning coffee and an evening glass of wine were perfect on the private lanai, listening to the waves just below us. We were lucky enough to see several turtles swimming by as we watched! We plan to come back and stay here again next year, and hopefully, every year! we have found our place in Maui!

This was a great condo. Perfect size for a couple. Location was wonderful. Great walking access to nearby businesses and resorts. We really enjoyed the amazing view and watching the whales from the lanai every morning.

Had problems with the AC the entire stay, key cards quit working and we were locked out, then let in by the onsite manager and told we couldn't leave or we would be locked out agin until the next day when the cards could be reprogrammed. Maui Property management of no help. Lost a night out in Maui and no one offered any compensation. I reached out to them after our stay and no one even bothered to get in touch. Don't risk your vacation with these clowns- stay somewhere else where you have direct communication with the property managers and not a third party. Lots of great places to choose from, so take a pass on this place.

As soon as we walked in after a very long plane ride, we were mesmerized with the beauty and awe of our view from the lanai. We felt like we were on a cruise ship yet gave us the privacy and relaxation we were looking for. the condo was well equipped and very roomy, the bed was very comfortable and the shower had very good water pressure. we were steps away from the beach and went swimming every day. the waters are calm and swimmable which is a luxury in Hawaii. Being close to the Kannapolis beach resorts, afforded us to enjoy a whale watching and a sunset cruise excursion. Maui Brewery had great food and beer. we found the best seafood restaurant that we had takeout almost every evening. what better way to enjoy whale watching and the gorgeous sunsets from our lanai. this was a diamond in the rough and we look forward to our visit again. the host was very attentive and we had no reason to call the property manager, Everything was perfect! and thank you for making our 45th anniversary so special.

We loved the condo and resort! The condo had all the amenities we needed and the beach rec closet items were very nice and useful. The beach to the left of the resort was also nice. Grocery store across the street and food trucks were a nice convenience.

My wife and I are visiting Hawaii for our 20th anniversary. Maui was our first stop. We chose this location for its price, location and view! It’s exactly what we wanted. We were able to wat h whales from the balcony and also see turtles swim just in front of the beach are. We had wonderful stay and slept well on the comfortable bed! Thank you!

Overall our stay was good. however the condo is infested with bugs. Particularly the rocker recliners and the main couch. I sat mostly in the rocker recliner and by departure was covered in bites more than 2 dozen, I spent 90% of my time in the condo so I doubt I was bitten any where else, There were small piles of sawdust under the couch every morning. I have been coming to Maui since 1975 and don't recall ever receiving a bug bite. I will be choosing my Condo's more carefully in the future.

Unit is well-maintained, spacious and comfortable with an amazing view of the pool courtyard & beach. Lanai is perfect for an evening sunset watch. Just a short walk to the beach, food trucks and grocery store. Individual washer & dryer in unit is incredibly convenient.Property manager was pleasant in communications.At the top of our list to recommend to family & friends!.

This was a relaxing getaway with my husband .We did 1 whale watching trip that we only saw 1 small glimpse of a whale but from the condo we watched them leap out of the water morning and night.Beautiful condo within walking distance to stores, restaurants and food trucks

Can’t say enough about how pleased we were with the property. Everything was as stated by the owners on Vrbo . Having stayed at Maui Kia many years ago brought us back. You can not get any better view. Sunset between Molokai and Lania every evening. If you want a little quieter experience and no crowds like the ones around the property, this is the place. Others are a zoo. No other property closer to the ocean. Contact with owners could not be better. To the owners many thanks. Mahalo Don and Carol

Wonderful time at this beautiful condo located right on the ocean. Saw humpback whales, sea turtles, surfers and rainbows from the patio. Lovely decor and very clean unit. We had a minor issue with the front door lock and contacted the owner who immediately had the problem resolved. I was very impressed! We would definitely like to stay here again.

The condo was exactly as described. Everything was spotless when we arrived. The added outdoor space was a definite bonus. Loved having the outdoor eating area and lounge chairs. The condo complex is a little outdated, but condo 201 had updated appliances and furniture. We also loved being able to open the sliding glass doors and listen to and view the ocean. We didn’t use the pool or other facilities, but everyone there was very nice and helpful. Close to many restaurants and also a cute food truck area. We had a wonderful stay and would recommend this condo to everyone looking to stay in this area.

Unit was very clean and in a great location. But most of all the view was amazing and hearing the ocean at night was very peaceful. Would definitely recommend to anyone.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay Maui. The Maui Kai was a perfect location for us to enjoy shopping and visiting a variety of restaurants. Being so close to the beach and having a lanai with big windows and a door to the outside patio and beach was a real plus. The kitchen was very well stocked!

We were impressed when we first walked in. Everything clean and well organized. Even the cutlery was laid out in rows in the drawer. Amenities---couldn't ask for anything else. And it was nice to see that the last guests' old condiments weren't still lying around as they are in some properties. Appliances all worked, and the fridge has an icemaker. This corner condo has views of everything, and is perfect for watching the sunset, having dinner, or seeing the whales and turtles from above. The pool behind the property is very nice and has a covered eating area with two barbecues. We were most pleased with this property. It is as close to a boutique hotel as we have ever had in a rental condo. Also a perfect location for taking the boardwalk down the beach. Stores nearby including a massive grocery store. This is a great location and a superb property.

This was our Third time staying in this Condo. We were celebrating our 40th Anniversary. We loved the Maui experience of coming earlier in the year this time to view the Whales. What an amazing thing to see, and from our lanai at times as well ! Spectacular !!This Condo provides a safe place to stay and close to so many things to do. We highly recommend : )

My husband and I stayed with our two teenage sons. The property was in a great location and we could walk right down to the beach. We were also within walking distance of the food truck park and close to shops and eateries. The unit itself was lovely and very clean. Very relaxing!

Overall we had a great stay here. This condo has spectacular views, and watching whales on the lanai with our morning coffee was truly a highlight. The Ka'anapali area is very nice, with wonderful beaches, restaurants, and a grocery store nearby.Check-in and check-out were very easy. The king bed was comfortable. The sofa bed was comfortable (for a sofa bed) and very easy to use. When we reached out to the owner, he was quick to reply and communicated clearly.Some things to know in advance are:- The property itself is older and the age does show in places.- The kitchen and living area are nicely renovated.- The kitchen was clean and nicely equipped.- Coffee was NOT provided, so be sure to bring your own. - There is no coffee grinder, so be sure to buy ground.- Salt and pepper were there, but no other kitchen basics (oil, sugar, etc.) were provided.- The bathroom really needs some attention (ceiling tiles broken in places, rust visible).- The owner does NOT provide shampoo, conditioner, or body soap for the shower. We only discovered this after getting into the shower after a long day of traveling, which is not an ideal experience. We have been traveling with VRBO for more than 10 years, and we have never stayed in a place that did not provide at least travel-size containers of body soap and shampoo.Overall we had a positive experience in Maui!

A beautiful, clean place with unparalleled views. The location is amazing- close to all activities and many wonderful restaurants as well as food trucks. We appreciated the laundry onsite as well. Jake was an amazing, kind and helpful host. Who could ask for better?

My wife and kids kept saying how amazed they were about 108. The lanai was right beside the ocean and we could literally walk out and be on the beach. My son played a lot of ping pong and the barbecues worked great. Sleeps were great as we never heard our neighbours and the bed was very comfortable. We will recommend this place to everyone.

We booked a last minute vacation to Maui. Our stay at the Maui Kai was awesome. The views from our Lanai were impeccable, we could see whales breaching the water and seals on the beach.

Whale watching and amazing sunsets from the comfort of our lanai. The property had everything we needed and the host was highly responsive. Great stay!

The views and sunsets are incredible from this top floor unit. Everything was well stocked. The owner was fantastic to communicate with. Very prompt replies and updates regularly when a few minor items popped during our stay.We have been coming to Maui for 25 years and have stayed at other condos in the immediate area. This unit was larger than the typical 1 bedroom units in previous stays. Plus, Honokowai has many conveniences literally across the street.Ka'anapali Shores is an excellent resort with two pools and a great bar and restaurant on property. The biggest issue with the property for us was the location of grills. They are far from the building behind a parking structure. It would be nice if they would consider relocating them closer to the pool and lawn area.We are looking forward to our next trip.

Beautiful, clean and roomy! You won’t get a better view anywhere! Perfect for watching the whales; and having the sound of the waves lull you to sleep!

I wanted a quick getaway and I got it! This place was perfect. While I intended to work more (technically on a “working vacation”), it was impossible to focus with whales playing all over and turtles swimming by. Perfect stretch of beach just steps from the entrance. This will be on my list of places to return to.

A good condo. Not fancy but also not as much money as other area condos. Great view of the ocean just outside the back huge window. Nice pool area and hot tub and nice beach next door. Nice path down the lakefront to more beaches! No complaints.
