We really enjoyed our stay here! It was amazing to watch whales from the back patio and also just step out onto the beach! The bed wasn't super comfy but overall awesome experience. Would stay here again for sure!

We had a lovely experience at Kaanapali Shores. Unit 933 has an amazing view and the location is perfect, as there are some small, but very good restaurants across the street and within a very short walking distance. There is a lot right next door with food trucks of every kind, which was awesome and the onsite restaurant (Beach Bar) also had really good food, as well as an excellent and friendly wait staff. The king size bed was a bit firm for our liking and, if you like to take naps, it tends to be a bit noisy, as it is next to the outside walkway. We did have to leave a few days early, but Lisa was very accommodating and understanding. She was very easy to reach and answered any and all questions we had. Overall, it was a very positive experience.

Stan's property is outstanding. The view took our breath away—great space to have everything you need.The sunsets were unspeakable. I don't believe we could have this experience in any other state.We have a home in Myrtle Beach on the Ocean, and this space is even more beautiful.

Although the unit has stunning view and is nicely appointed, there were several major issues. The shower drain was plugged, so we showered in standing water. The floors and rug were filthy, and the sofa pillows. And all the windows are caulked shut, so there is no ventilation unless you open the lanai doors, which turns off the A/C.

The condo was very nice, clean and comfortable. Views are amazing. The area was nice with restaurants, market, bars within walking distance and the area felt very safe. I liked that the condo wasn’t a massive resort so it wasn’t loud or overcrowded. We hope to stay again!

From the lead up emIls and texts providing check-in infomation through the entire stay, qe can only say 100% positive things.The room was clean and comfortable. The sliding doors on the lanai puts the ocean right next to you.We sat and watched the humpback whales all morning. Dining is close by with a wide range of choices from food trucks to resort fone dining.We will be going back to this location.

We had a lovely stay. The condo is a bit dated, but clean and comfortable overall. The lanai over the ocean was the highlight of the condo, and it was well stocked with beach towels and chairs. The location was ideal, close to restaurants and shopping, and the small beach rhat adjoins the property was lovely. It seems to be secluded enough, that there were very few others using it. Overall, a wonderful stay.

Beautiful condo on second floor listening to ocean waves with amazing view only found in Hawaii! We got to see whales all day long and everyday during our 7 day stay. Pack your binoculars! We also got to see turtles and snorkelled right on beach. Car stayed parked mostly as we ate at the food trucks, and local restaurants across the street along with grocery store. You are a 45 minute beach walk away from Whalers Village. We did the Old Lāhainā luau which we highly recommend.Mahalo!

My husband came to golf, but I came to see whales. And I saw a lot of whales. I sat on the balcony every morning and enjoyed all the whales. While you are not up close like sea world, this was way better than a boat tour. I do recommend a pair of binoculars though. Some came fairly close but most were a little farther out.The bed could be a little softer and the shower was hot or cool only. Overall the condo Was great. We would rent again.

Very comfortable condo for two people. The building was very quiet and the corner unit provides just amazing views. We could see turtles and whales down in the water. The location of the building is literally right on the water with a sea wall and rocks separating the ocean from the structure. But if you are downstairs facing the water, there is very easy beach access to a very nice beach. I was concerned when others said it was rocky but we found it very easy. Thank you, hosts, for a lovely and comfortable week.

Easy to book, very good communication with property manager, clean, lots of towels, tv in each bedroom, well equipped kitchen - would return for sure. Beach was great for swimming for 3 days, then wind and swell picked up so we swam elsewhere last 5 days. All good!

Wonderful place and great vacations!Would definitely stay again at this condo.Few issues, but it didn’t affect the good experience:Fridge wasn’t working properly and we had to throw away some food. The ice-maker worked, so we managed to keep some food in ice.Beach chairs (3): 1 good, 1 partially broken, 1 broken. Parasols (2), broken. This was quite disappointing because they’re very important for this type of vacation and it costs the owner very little money to fix this.Needs a bit of renovation, specially the bathroom drawers.Beach is great, views are magnificent.

This was a good location to get to Kapalua, and there is a wonderful Mexican restaurant across the street. The food truck area is also recommended.

Gaspare and Robin were wonderful hosts. They gave detailed directions and information leading up to our stay and kept in touch throughout. Check in and check out were easy. The condo was a perfect size and location for my husband and I. You can’t get much closer to the beach than Maui Kai! The beach directly to the right of the property was perfect for swimming and lounging in the sand. One day on that beach, we were lucky enough to see an endangered Hawaiian monk seal sleeping on the sand ( that part of the beach was securely roped off that day so the seal would not be disturbed). We loved spending time on the condo’s lanai, especially for sunsets. We saw whales from a distance, sea turtles, dolphins and a few rainbows. Truly magical! The condo was well stocked and we appreciated the beach towels, cooler, and beach chairs.Having the food truck park just a few minutes walk was such an added bonus. Thank you!!

We had a wonderful stay at this property and would definitely stay here again. The only disappointment was we thought there was a balcony or lanai that you could sit on to separate yourselves from the living area. Otherwise, the property was just as advertised and we very much enjoyed it. The location and views were amazing! Thank you!

We used to stay at Maui Kai several times and were lucky to rent the corner 408 condo this year. The condo is very clean and well maintained and has all the amenities you'd need but not too overloaded. The location is perfect with 180-degree view of the ocean and the beach. We've seen lots of whales from the lanai. The owner (Neal) is very responsive and helpful. Will come back next year. Thank you!

Property was great and owner very responsive... Even took the time to share local recommendations for things to do, places to eat and shop, etc. Great experience. Had a minor issue in property access, but response was excellent and it didn't impact significantly the overall experience. Thanks to Gaspare and Robin!

We had a wonderful stay! The suite is spacious and meticulous and the view of the ocean is spectacular. We had a great time at the pool and hot tub. There is also table tennis and a foosball table which was great. The bbq grills are upscale and extremely well maintained. The beaches near the building are awesome as the reef is in close proximity, saw some cool fish and sea turtles. There is a food truck spot which is walking distance with some great options. Communication was excellent! Gaspare is an excellent host and also accommodated us for a late checkout as we had a late night flight. We look forward to staying here again.

If you enjoy falling asleep to waves crashing against the rocks 20' from your lanai, beach access 50' away, being less than 3 blocks from the food truck court or staying in a low traffic & quiet location, then this place is for you! Walking distance to so many things! Studio condo has more than enough space with the lanai being larger than expected to watch the beautiful sunsets from. Has all the necessities with ample dishes, silverware, etc. Heck, they even had a chip clip when I needed it! Community pool/hot tub area requires room card access (nice feature), VERY clean, and was pretty decent size. Pool area also included access to 3 full size gas grills, cornhole boards, decent book inventory, huge TV (can watch from pool/hot tub) and about 15 lounge chairs for sun bathing. If you end up staying here, say hi to Stanley and Ruth; what we named the two sea turtles that we saw swimming in the ocean EVERY day from the lanai. Seeing whales breach in the distance was a nice little bonus too!

I can't begin to describe our entire experience at Barry and Rhonda's beautiful condo but I'll try. From the very beginning to the end, communication was exceptional and very thorough. The check in instructions and description of the premises and nearby attractions were the best we've ever experienced at any stay we've had. Nothing was left to chance. The place was stocked with everything anyone could need. I love to cook and the kitchen offered everything necessary to do so at a high level.Now to the best parts. The view and proximity to the shoreline was AMAZING. We saw whales on at least 10 separate occasions over 5 or 6 different days. It was truly magical. The entertainment center is exceptional and very easy to use. The shower head put out a wonderful and plentiful stream. Entry and exit were very easy. The place is very close walking distance to a food truck court, 7-8 great sit down restaurants and a super market (We highly recommend the The Fish Market Maui about a 1/2 mile north for some of the best fish tacos we've ever had).All in all, we don't have anything negative to say. I can't recommend staying here enough. Next time we're in Maui, I hope we have the good fortune of staying here again. Thanks so much Barry and Rhonda. Mahalo!Justin and Nazli

Yup, my wife's biggest fear in life was unlocked - cockroaches. It's honestly not overly surprising given how old, worn down, and rusty the building/unit is. The floors were quite dirty too. The host was easy to communicate with, but we didn't bother flagging the cockroach issue since it was discovered on our last night. The location is great right in front of the ocean (we saw some whales, which was cool). The cockroaches just ruined it at the end.

The condo was a perfect base for our week in Maui. We were able to watch the sunrise each morning from the lenai and often spotted sea turtles swimming by the shore. This small condo is perfect for couples and even has a small beach next door.

Everything was perfect about the condo, the views, and location. The condo was beautiful and exactly like the pictures showed. The views of watching the whales, turtles, and the sea lion were priceless! The only thing we would change is a different mattress, it was really hard and uncomfortable for us. We celebrated our honeymoon here and can't wait to come back again for a vacation. Thank you for sharing your place with us!

Overall, the condo was excellent and the views of the ocean and adjacent islands were great. Everything was in working order as described in the posting. The building is a little dated but the condo itself has been updated.
Only think we wished we had was a washer and dryer in the condo but they do offer them on almost every floor for a small fee.

Maui Kai condos is an older building right on the ocean. It doesn’t have the same amenities as some of the bigger developments in the vicinity, which was perfect for us. Not crowded, not noisy. The people who worked there were very responsive when we had issues and got things taken care of quickly.

This is a great little condo, but man the location is unmatched. Sure the building is a little dated, but the views are second to none. The waves are literally crashing up on the seawall like maybe three yards from the condo. Perfect for happy hour on the Lanai! Location is halfway between Lahaina and Kapalua so tons of restaurant options, including a food truck yard outside the property. Grocery store across the street which is super convenient. A+ condo!

We really enjoyed the condo and grounds of this amazing beachfront place. So many turtles each day swimming around the area. The pool was great. Everything very clean and all amenities we could ask for. Great price for those amazing views. Even saw whales jumping off in the distance off the deck. Will be back for sure.

We absolutely loved everything about this studio. It was peaceful and quiet, felt very private with a lovely lanai and amazing ocean/sunset views. Bed was comfortable, kitchen had everything we needed, bathroom was great, place was very clean. We ate in during 80% of our stay (after our initial Costco and Safeway shopping). Loved having the lanai doors open almost all the time (no need this time of year for a/c) - and felt like that extended our space beautifully. Enjoyed the pool/hot tub on a few evenings, though never got to the grill. Great amenities overall. Having access on either end of building to beaches was so convenient, and easy access to the boardwalk to Dukes and all the condos. Used the beach chairs/towels daily, and appreciated the various size coolers. Great fridge and icemaker. Can't say enough good things about MK806 and the folks that own/manage it. Can't wait to return, and definitely telling others about this find! Thanks for everything, Jason and Art.

My husband and I really enjoyed the lanai - early mornings and cocktail time. I probably misread info regarding washer and dryer, but they are not located in the unit. It is coin laundry on same floor - past elevators. Overall an enjoyable stay, plenty of room (small bathroom). And well appointed. Would stay again.
