The property is great, a smaller condo in between larger properties right on the water with great views. The pool area and hot tub are nice with a lovely kitchen and grill and dining area.
The area is fully open after the fires so support the local businesses that need some help.

My wife and I visited Maui for the very first time and we could not be more pleased with our stay at the Maui Kai Condo. The studio condo was beautifully furnished with everything we needed for our time in Maui and the ocean views from the Lanai are amazing!! The Lanai is literally no more than 15 feet from the ocean!! Plus, the condo location is perfect and close to everything we wanted to do on the island...dining, hiking, shopping, sunset cruising...even the Road to Hana and the Haleakala Sunrise was very doable with an early start from Maui Kai! Times Supermarket is located right across the street from the condo resort and a food truck park is within a few minutes walk from the condo. There was plenty of safe parking and lastly, the condo owners were extremely nice and personally very attentive before, during, and after our stay! We truly could not have been more pleased with our stay at the Maui Kai Condo!!

The condo had everything we needed for our vacation. The lania is great. We spent mornings watching the turtles while we had coffee. The ocean is so close its an experience in itself. You can snorkel and swim behind the hotel but the beach .5 miles to the south has a large grassy area and beach.

Condo is beautiful and immaculate . Getting there was a bit complicated. Maui Kai office lady was pretty RUDE when we inquired about the condo. Would not help except to ORDER us to read our email. There was also intermittent hammering and sawing from the condo above (901), annoying! And when the electricity went out, we could not find a flashlight or candles. An emergency kit would have been helpful. And perhaps a call or email from you during our stay would have been a nice gesture. And inform future guests that there are used books available in the pool rec room.

Neal's place is amazing in a great location, with an amazing view, and so close to all the things you want to do on the west side of Maui.
We've stayed here multiple times and it's always clean, has everything you need to cook meals at home, the AC works great, and is in a beautiful area that is peaceful and quiet. The breeze throughout the day is great too. It has huge windows that open up and not only gives you the best view of the ocean, but a great ocean breeze you almost don't need the AC.
It's walking distance to some great restaurants and bars, nice beach areas, and a food truck park.
Checking-in was easy. Neal provides you with detailed instructions on how to get the keys and check in. He is always available and responds quickly should you have any questions or concerns.
We will stay here again and highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Maui.

The view was amazing! And the walk out to the sea wall was incredible! Unfortunately the conditions of the condo on arrival was terrible. There were live and dead bugs on the floor and in the sofabed, a dead gheko, dust and used tissue and garbage under the bed, sofa and behind the TV. The dishwasher was full from the last guest, there was only enough toilet paper for 4 days of our nine day visit, the ice cubes in the fridge freezer had mold. We were told all amenities were open yet the the pool, cabana and bbq was closed until the last 4 days.

Where to start..as this was the most interesting trip we have ever set up, and our first via VRBO.
We set the trip up back at the end of March time frame for the middle of September. From the beginning, the owner, Gaspare, was very communicative and responsive to any and all questions that we had via both email and text.
Then, there is the lull for a few months until it is time to travel. No one could have ever fathomed what would occur on Maui August 8th with the fires. It was and still is truly a tragedy. We wondered if we’d be able to travel, was our condo caught up in the flames, is it safe. All of those things crossed our minds. Gaspare reached out not long after the power had been restored to the area. He was able to answer all of our questions about restaurants and groceries that were open, local attractions in the area that would be closed still when we arrived, and what we might encounter. All of this while saying he understood if we needed to cancel or postpone our stay. We would get a full refund if we chose to cancel. This was within 2 weeks of our travel date that he said this!
We made the choice to continue our trip out to Maui Kai on September 11th. It was the best decision we’d ever make! The condo was everything that we needed for my wife and I.
The accommodations were first class. The view from our lanai I would put up against most any view on the island and still probably pick ours! Thanks again Gaspare for the best trip we could ask for!

This place was so bad..very misleading. The furniture is scratched beyond repair, the AC takes a full day to cool, the check in area dates back to the 60's and the owner was extremely rude after payment was made. Pent house?? Its the 10th floor of a an old cinder block building. Pool...its the size of a Wal Mart. The patio doors did not close well- thus a loud whistle. The owner blamed it all on us, however we only spent 2 nights until we could find another place to stay. That one was as advertised. Find any place else!!!!

We walked in and my wife detected an odor- like wet dog. Carpet was stiff. After a short while her eyes starting watering, getting red and puffy and her throat started to get scratchy. Opened all the windows. Then noticed the sun shade for the Lani was missing. So couldn't use it too hot in direct sun. Went to put away groceries and the handle to the fridge was broken. There wasn't much if any open storage space - lot's of old paint cans in different storage locations. In the bathroom something black on floor around base of shower. Called the rental company to inform them of issues and that we could not stay. Response was they couldn't do anything as they close at 5pm. You can't check in till 4 pm so really no time allowed to find or resolve any issues. We left the unit for several hours. While gone my wife's eyes and throat got better. We left the windows open to air out. When we returned her eyes and throat were again affected. So we let the company know, packed our bags and left. The next morning I got a message from company saying they hoped I enjoyed my stay. Followed by a message their property manager went by and did not detect an odor. I let them know I wasn't surprised as not everybody has the same sensitivities. No more action or response from the agency. They acted like we never left with follow up messages about checkout procedures etc. Should have been obvious to property manager nobody was there or stayed there. I am now skeptical on using VRBO.

We were keen on not paying any hidden fees. Our travel agent could not find a single hotel that disclosed all their fees upfront.
We decided to look at condos through VRBO with an ocean view. We were so happy to find Maui Kai Condos in Kaanapali. Upon seeing the photos and reading the reviews for Condo #306, we made our reservation.
Our ocean view was expansive, right outside our lanai. If you stood in our lanai, it looked like we were on a cruise ship without the movement of the waves. It was incredible to hear the waves. Beaches to our right and left. The furniture and decor were beautiful, think Ralph Lauren meets Tommy Bahama. The king bed was comfortable and not hot The bedding was also nice, with extra pillows and blankets. We received a generous welcome basket filled with Maui treats. We loved having a full kitchen with all the amenities to prepare our coffee and breakfast. Nice bathroom with beautiful tile shower, clean with extra towels and shampoo, and conditioner. Great Elfa closet with hanging and drawers. We appreciated having boogie boards, towels, ice chest, yoga mat, and beach chairs in the closet The swimming pool and hot tub were never crowded or loud. And FREE, ample parking.
Easy walk to Dukes, Bad Ass Coffee, Time grocery store, and the Farmer's Market for amazing Acai bowls. And, if you are vegetarian, check out Moku Roots, a 15-minute drive from Laina.
For a more intimate stay in Maui, we highly recommend it! Maholo!

Very outdated compared to what pictures show! The overpowering carpet mold smell alone should have this place removed from vacation rental sites but there’s plenty more wrong here - the shower water drips non-stop, air conditioner makes such a horrible noise in the bedroom that it was hard to get to sleep. Shower door took 5-10 minutes to pry open. Coffee pot so ancient, stained and a total fire hazard. Patio furniture padding so old that the ties no longer hold it on, so it slides when sitting. It’s just really unacceptable for a place that wants $600+ per night average...robbery! Upon check in I tried to call for a refund and of course they aren’t accepting phone calls.

Perfect Stays was the host and was terrible! Zero communication from them during the troubling times. I understand they had no control of the loss of power and the fires, and all that was impacted but there was no communication during or after. Other visitors who booked with different hosts had lots of communication and refunds. I couldn’t get flashlights or any communication back from our host, zero from them! Very frustrating!

We loved this property and Jake was a wonderful host!
The condo is spacious and very beautifully decorated with original Hawaiian paintings. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need to prepare meals. The dishwasher is very helpful too. The master bed is super comfortable and there are also two twin beds on the lanai. Our 9 yr old daughter spent every night sleeping out there and my wife and I took turns sleeping on the other bed. The central air conditioning kept everything nice and cool all day. The ocean breezes are so cool at night that we didn’t even need A/C for sleeping and it was August.
We snorkeled out front on the first day and swam with a sea turtle. It’s hard to top that on your first day!
The million dollar view is incredible! We saw sea turtles from our balcony every single day we were there. The lanai was so comfortable that we could literally just sit and have meals and watch sea turtles all day. It’s so peaceful. There is a nice sandy bottom swim beach next to the condo. The condo is within walking distance to food trucks, restaurants and a grocery store.
Our room was also stocked with beach gear so we didn’t have to rent chairs, umbrellas etc..
The building caretakers (Mike and Suzy) are so incredibly friendly and they do a wonderful job of keeping the Aloha spirit alive.They are amazing people.
I highly recommend Maui Kai #905 and definitely look forward to staying here again on our next trip!
Mahalo!!

Reviewer Comments:
This is an older property from the 1960s-70s that feels more personal than the mega-hotels in the area. Watching dozens of turtles travel the shoreline, boats, wind surfers, and the weather from the lanai was just wonderful! The pool is small, well-maintained, they has a nice building with a full kitchen, ping pong, and restrooms for the guests. Two BBQs and covered shelter house a few picnic tables outside, making it welcoming and giving it a warm sense of community. Guests appreciated having power there after losing it in our early in the hurricane.You would be hard-pressed to find a corner condo with a 180 degree view like this one! The down side is that the decor is outdated, feels tired, and all the brown color make it feel less than fresh. The air conditioning is piped into the bedroom but does not cool it at all. No windows open in the condo. The hurricane knocked out the electricity 8 hours after arrival, and the sliding glass doors needed to stay closed, of course, (which was no fault of the management, of course). In general, the kitchen is sparsely equipped (dishes, pots and pans, towels) with little space a for groceries, so be careful not to over purchase during shopping! Minimal linens in kitchen, 5 dishwasher tablets; no tissue box, and one roll of toilet paper in the bathroom. The staff were attentive and kind. When cell phones were still working, we phoned in a repair request, they had it fixed within 90 minutes. It's an easy walk to restaurants and food trucks, but lines are long and streets are very busy.We departed 2 days early due to safety concerns in the area and dwindling options, so our experience was more challenging than if we had been there another time. Again, no fault of the Maui Kai.We would return or recommend it to others if condo was updated to be more closely aligned with the nightly price, and if the air conditioning cooled the bedroom.

We have stayed on the resort property many times, but this was the first time we'd stayed in this particular unit. It was absolutely incredible! The most well-stocked vacation unit our family has ever stayed in! The host has thought of every little detail you might need when staying away from home. The location was ideal, the view was spectacular! Our two kiddos (12 and 15) loved the murphy beds, allowing them to have their own space, but also easy clean up to make the best use of the room during the day. The extra amenities (snorkel gear, beach chairs, etc.) were so incredibly helpful and we made great use of them. The well-stocked kitchen meant we could enjoy many homemade meals rather than eating out (which can get really old on an extended vacation). We loved this property and hope to stay again sometime soon!

What a beautiful spot to stay on Maui. We were enamored with the ocean view 15 feet off the lanai. The location was close to several excellent beaches as well as a 5-minute walk to a big food truck area. Our drive to Lahaina town was a short 10 minutes away. We loved the space, and it had everything that we needed. Most of our time there was spent on the lanai. The sea turtles and even a Manta Ray were right off the shore the morning that we left. Absolute heaven!

We found this unit to be exactly as advertised. It is clean and includes the necessities, as well as some nice extras like snorkel masks. Only cooking ingredients are salt/pepper, but there are plenty of restaurants and food trucks nearby. There’s a great beach within easy walking distance along the water. If you’re dead-set on having only the highest end finishes, you’ll need to spend a lot more, but unit 603 had all that we needed and a great view for a very fair price.

Without question, Barry and Rhonda's place is absolutely beautiful and they have thought about and included for just about every conceivably need a traveler might have for a stay on Maui, from the kitchen, to the bedroom, to entertainment, to going out and enjoying the beaches and restaurants of Maui, they seem to have anticipated it all. Oh yes, you cannot get any closer to the ocean and have a more spectacular view. From a communication standpoint, Barry and Rhonda were always available both before and during our stay. We could not have enjoyed our visit more and we would most definitely recommend their place to anyone.

It was our first stay in Maui, and we couldn’t ask for a better one. The condo was clean and stocked with everything you’d need, the beach was just a short walk off the lanai. And the view from the room was breathtaking. We watched sun set every night. We were also surprised by the cabana by the pool that had a game room for all ages and full kitchen, which is very convenient if you want to cook by the pool after a long day. Thought I’d mention that because I look to reviews to help book my stays. Over all we couldn’t ask for a better place to stay (: thank you for having us we will be back!

The condo looks exactly as is shown in the pictures - no discrepancies. We enjoyed our stay in this condo and would stay again if we bring our young grandchildren with us - I think this location is ideally suited for young children. The beach area is perfect and there is a lot of green space for people to visit and sunbathe on.
The only drawback would be for teenagers - which we had 3 of. There isn't much for them to do in this area, and Lahaina is 15-20 minutes away. I would have no hesitancy in staying here again, but I might wait a few years until my boys are on their own and then my husband and I could thoroughly enjoy the quiet - or come back next year with the young grandchildren, like I said earlier.

We took our grandkids 9 and 11 yrs old for their first trip to Hawaii. They had a wonderful time and experienced a lot of new adventures.
The view is amazing!! Owner answers questions very quickly and helpful.
Thank you, Lisa

Wife and I celebrated our 30th anniversary. The best part of the trip was waking up every morning sipping coffee and relaxing on the deck looking out at that amazing view. The evening drinks weren't bad either. The condo was very comfortable in every way wouldn't change a thing. Beautifully remodeled. You couldn't ask for better with the ocean one way and the mountains the other. Everything you could think of within walking distance. Loved this place will definitely be back.

The view of the place it’s amazing! Although the building is not new construction, the apartment it’s clean and comfortable. Location it’s central with lots of choices for food and fun. We had a small hiccup at checking in but both owners were prompt to correcting the situation. We did not use any of the other building amenities but were happy with our accommodations. Thank you for sharing your place with us, we had a relaxing time.

It was absolutely perfect for us! The location was great. Very quiet, but close to resorts so we could walk to several different restaurants. Steps away from the beach on either side. Close to the food trucks. Close to the “beach walk” so I enjoyed some runs. And the condo itself had everything we needed. We also loved that it was high so it was super private (no one could see onto our balcony except passing boats). We loved sitting on the lanai listening to the waves. No complaints!

This was a wonderful way to spend our down time. Close to the things we needed for necessities. Close enough for us to the activities we did. Very quiet area. It was a little challenging to maneuver accessing the beach but the beach was nice. The water was calm enough for us. Family did some snorkeling. Beautiful sunset. Loved the porch. The family loved right outside and standing at the stone wall to watch the ocean. If we ever come back to Maui we hope it is available again. We were struggling a little with towel availability because there were only 4 beach towels and there were 4 of us. The towels usually weren't dry in enough time for us to use dry ones the next time. Easy fix though if we had our own. Thank you for a wonderful stay and adding to our amazing Maui experience. ❤️

Newly remodeled, well appointed corner unit with expansive ocean views. Dana, the property manager accommodated our early check in request so we could make it over to Wailua to meet friends for dinner. We had a problem with the A/C that was addressed and repaired immediately.

The condo is amazing. Don’t wast your money on snorkeling excursions. You can snorkel right next to the condo. We even got to snorkel next to a pair of turtles. We got to see dolphins and turtles from our balcony in the morning.

Wow, we can not say enough about this condo! We stayed on our honeymoon and was blown away with how beautiful it was!! The beaches were perfect for either swimming or snorkeling, and the view from the Lana had the most stunning sunsets! We cooked most of our meals since there was a grocery store within walking distance but the days we didn’t want to cook, the food truck garden was SO COOL!
The condo was clean and had everything you could ask for! Also Neal was quick and easy to get ahold of for any questions (and SO NICE!).

As presented in listing. Great location at north end of Kaannapali Beach with walking access to food trucks, grocery, restaurants, and not far from whalers village and Lahainna (my spellings may be off). property is clean and provides fantastic ocean view and easy access to all West Maui has to offer.

I am an older person who was staying alone in this condo, and it was perfect. First the essentials: it was immaculately clean and the bed was very comfortable. It was accessible, with a building elevator, a walk-in shower, and a ramp to the elevator lobby.
The decor was cute - all Hawaiian-themed, but not too precious. The kitchen was well-appointed with everything I needed.
But the best part of all was the full ocean view from the lanai. I could open the windows and feel as though I were on a ship - that's how close it is to the water. Since I needed to take time to rest on this trip, the gorgeous view made me feel like I was still on vacation, even during those times that I wasn't out and about.
The building was very quiet. The pool was small and basic, but it was clean and never crowded - in fact, I was in there alone a couple of times, with other people sunbathing on the deck.
The owners were very helpful when I had an issue getting to the condo the first night because of a brush fire on the highway. Gaspare was pleasant and responsive in all my contact with him.
There were plenty of towels and lots of thoughtful touches throughout the condo. It really felt like a pleasant home away from home - but with better sunsets!
The location is great, with shopping and food trucks nearby, and a short drive to Lahaina. Duke's Restaurant is just a couple of minutes away, and was excellent.
I highly recommend this condo and would stay here again in a heartbeat.

We had everything we needed for our stay. Good location and convenient! My only issue was that it the floor could have been cleaner. There was quite a bit of dust and hair that didn’t belong to us.
