First time on Maui and it is absolutely a beautiful place to have a vacation. The beaches are amazing. I would come back again and find my peace.

My family stayed in this lovely unit for a week. Everything went very smoothly. The turtles on the beaches out front were definitely a highlight! the rooftop grilling was great except for the wind we had but that just mother nature! The only thing I wish the unit had more of was beach items ( better chairs, an umbrella) but that's okay. We really enjoyed our stay and the lanai was wonderful. The location was great, so close to many things on the Island.

We absolutely loved Jackie's place. She was so easy to work with during the planning of the stay. We were with a group of others and she had the place next door to where another group was staying. Jackie was accommodating and quick to respond. The location and condition of the property was perfect for our needs. Nice updated kitchen with plenty of dishes, etc. We could get around to other sites easily and still have some beach time as well. She even had lots of beach equipment in the closet and it looked like brand new. I would recommend Jackie's place 100%!!

Very happy with our choice to stay at Toshiko & Dave’s Menehune Shores condo. The views are beautiful. You can watch the sunset over the ocean/beach from your Lanai every night and you can watch turtles right off the rocks of the fish pod. The condo has everything you need to enjoy your days on the beach which was a huge plus for us. We hope to be back soon.

We so enjoyed our vacation in Maui and the condo was everything we wanted. It was well equipped and comfortable and all correspondence with the owners was timely. We fell in love with Maui and the location of this condo was amazing. We were able to have this place as our base and explore the island. The place was lovely and comfortable and we enjoyed having the pool and beach right there. I would definitely recommend this condo and hope to come back. Thanks for being a big part of making a dream come true 🙏❤️

The Maui Moon Oceanfront Condo is a very lovely condo and was just as pictured. The location was great. We enjoyed watching the sunset from the lanai in the evenings. Absolutely beautiful view!! The condo is stocked with most everything a person could want. We would definitely return to this condo if we are lucky enough to make it back to Maui.

Our family really enjoyed our ten day stay. The property is right on the beach as advertised and is in a great central location on Maui. The beach has a shallow, rock enclosed “fish pond” area that is great if you have small kids. There are sea turtles that sun themselves on the rocks every day and they also swim in the rock enclosure. You can also walk miles in either direction on the beach. The condo had everything we needed. The a/c worked well but you can also open up the windows and let the fresh air pass through. We did not hear any noise from any neighbors the entire time. There is also an excellent Indian restaurant (Monsoon Bar & Grill) right at the bottom of the elevators. There are BBQ grills both on the roof and down by the pool, which I saw them cleaning daily. The property staff were very nice and helpful. Parking was free and all you have to do is get a window permit from the office. We highly recommend this property.

We LOVED it! The bay was quiet and not too deep so it was perfect for all ages! It is a nice central location so easy to drive to Paia or Ka'anapoli for the day. We spend many days in Kihei as well. The VRBO was perfect and we could literally hear the ocean waves from our bedrooms. It was beautiful and I have already recommended it to friends!

Amazing trip at a wonderful location. This condo was in a perfect spot to access everything in Maui. The condo was clean, very quiet and had an amazing view of the ocean.

My husband, aunt and I stayed at this beautiful condo for 10 days. We wish it had been longer! This condo is exactly as described and pictured but honestly, even more stunning in person! It was absolutely spotless upon our arrival and provided so many essentials that most rentals we’ve stayed at are missing, which we really appreciated. Our aunt slept on the sofa bed which worked out perfectly. She said it was very comfortable and the owner provides additional sheets, blanket and pillows! We all loved our having our coffee on the large balcony every morning, listening to the ocean waves below, taking in the magical view while my husband thoroughly enjoyed whale watching and spotted numerous whales every single day! One of my top priorities when searching for a rental was finding a condo located on a beach for our morning walks. I was so pleasantly surprised that the beach in front of this complex actually stretches for at least 2 miles! We stumbled upon several large turtles resting on the sand, which was such a treat, and one was sunning itself on the beach area right next to our building. We dined at so many fabulous restaurants in Wailea which is only a 15 minute drive from the condo. There’s an upscale shopping mall there as well! The location of this condo is perfect and loved that the condo complex was meticulously maintained as well. We look forward to reserving this beautiful condo again when we return to Maui! Thank you for an incredible stay!

We had such a wonderful stay in Maui. Jackie was great! She was easy to communicate with and made sure we had everything we needed. The property is just as described. We enjoyed sitting on the lanai and drinking our morning coffee and then taking a walk on the beach. It was great having a private beach. We saw sea turtles on the beach several times on our walks. I highly recommend Jackie and this property. Thank you!

The view is amazing, sitting on the deck watching the ocean and activities was a great way to pass time in between activities. The beaches were nice to walk daily and watch the turtles. The pool was a great place to cool off. The condo and building is very well taken care of and accommodated our family well.

The ocean view was spectacular. Condo was dated but clean and comfortable. Kitchen was well stocked with cooking utensils and good quality cookware and knives. Bed was super comfy. Could have used more towels and the beach towels were great for the pool but not for the beach. Thanks for providing beach chairs, umbrella and cooler! We would definitely stay again!

Great condo for a family stay. Much quieter location than right in town. Nice to have the chairs and coolers etc….plus all the extra goodies left by previous groups. Does not have A/C but the breeze does blow through the unit. Note check out time in 10am which seems quite early I think. 11-noon seems to be the standard. Overall great spot, great condo, great manager.

Stayed for 12 days at this location in Kihei! First time staying at this condo complex. Place was perfect for us and our two adult children. Perfect location on beach with a great view off our deck. Walking along beaches was outstanding (turn left to walk along Sugar beach, or right to walk along beach into central Kihei). Two bathrooms worked perfectly between 4 adults. Will happily stay here again!

The moment we walked into this condo and saw the view we felt instantly relaxed. The view is INCREDIBLE! So is the location as the complex is situated one two nice beaches. One of the beaches has an ancient Hawaiian fish pond that blocks the waves and is perfect for young children and turtles, who we saw there daily. Unit could use a fresh coat of paint but has everything you need for a dream stay. Totally recommend.

It was fabulous to have both beachfront access and a nice pool to be able to choose from each day. We also saw whales from our balcony one morning which was a special surprise. The property was well maintained and the one night the property lost power, they were able to fix it in a relatively short period of time.

Thank you James, for allowing us to stay at your condo in Maui. The kids enjoyed the beach very much and it was great for kids as the waves were just right. The beach in-front of the condo is good for kids! We took our morning walks along the beach then hung out on the beach the rest of the morning. There was plenty of room in the condo and all the things we needed to get us started was there. James is a great host and very helpful and great communication! Above and beyond! Thank you again for sharing your place and we would not hesitate to go back there again in the future. We love Maui!

Feb 23-28 2024. This condo was perfect for us! The decor was in my favorite beach colors - even the dishes/ coffee cups were a beautiful turquoise. The king bed was heavenly. The linens/ towels were exceptionally nice. Everything was in working order and very clean. The washer and dryer in the unit were helpful. We literally watched whales from the lanai. It was perfect for sunset! All that being said, May was a super host! She communicated quickly and was very thoughtful. I wouldn't choose anyplace else if we are lucky enough to return. Thank you May!

This was the perfect stay in Maui! This apartment was well stocked from the kitchen to the beach toys/gear. Location was perfect with the only small complaint being parking can be hard to find(especially with a larger vehicle) in the evening. Host was amazing. Quick to respond to messages both before and during our stay. This was our first trip to Maui and we hope to come back and stay here again.
