Condo was very nice. The yard area was great and right next to the beach. Everything was just as advertised. We had a great stay.

Beautiful condo on the water. Everything was perfectly put together; instructions were very clear and accommodations were perfect.

This beachfront, ocean-view unit is super clean, has quality furnishings, and is equipped with kitchen items and beach gear. Tip: The fridge has a working ice maker. I didn't realize that at first because the arm was up. The grounds are well-maintained, the walkable beach goes for miles, and it's easy to enter into mostly-calm waters that are perfect for swimming, SUP, etc. The location on the North end of the Kihei strip was great for us to get to other parts of the island during our stay.

Overall, we had a nice stay. The owner, Michael allowed us to have an early check-in, which was very nice. We had a bit of a cleaning issue when we arrived. Vacuum and cleaning supplies inside the condo allowed us to tidy up for ourselves. The neighbor next door clearly does not like short-term renters. Be as quiet as a mouse in the hallway and hopefully you will have no issues. Pros: easy to get to lots of great beaches- right on main street/ intersection. Easy parking. On the beach! Cons: Building is quite a bit run down- very thin walls- we heard the people above us often. 2/3 of the sleeping areas face the parking lot, and very bright parking lot lights shine through the curtains. Blackout blinds would be great here. Lots of road noise too if you like to sleep with windows open.

Rating Details: The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Arranging the rental with Bello was easy and straightforward. Access was easily arranged and the only hitch was not being informed about the change to the lanai gate lock code. Overall, the building and the grounds were in fantastic condition and the unit itself was clean and welcoming. The balcony for suite 502 overlooks the main highway so it took a couple of days to get used to the sound of traffic. This is our fourth stay at Nane kai Hale and keep returning due to its central location and proximity to Kihei.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The room was well stocked with supplies, although the rooms felt over crowed with beach chair and "stuff" stuffed everywhere including under the bed.Upon arrival- The towels and bedding were musty and stinky, I had to wash a few loads so we had fresh items, and threw a lot right into the laundry basket for housekeeping.

I did not have the code so it was a hassle getting into our condo. Luckily a woman who owned a condo helped us. It was evening and we had trouble finding the unit. We also had trouble working the coffee pot and microwave. One of the washing machines in the hallway did not work either. But it was a lovely, well decorated, well stocked and clean condo. We came to Maui to volunteer because of the fires.

Can't beach a place to stay in Kihei that is right on the beach. The whole building is older but we love it here and have been staying in this condo for the past 12 years. With kids, being right on the beach makes the trip so much more restful. Don't skip on the Sugar beach bake shop down the road, it is incredible.

We’ve stayed in this unit multiples times and are happy to recommend it. We were there for 15 nights and there were no complaints. The unit is well furnished and the kitchen has everything you need including sharp knives and multiple storage containers. The AC works well and the provided fans keep the air circulating.

The only bad thing about our stay at this unit is that it’s over. Imagine walking down 2 short flights of stairs and being at the beach! Seriously - no busy street to cross….you’re RIGHT THERE! Check in was a breeze. The owner is very responsive and attentive. The grounds are immaculate. Parking is easy. Save my spot….I’ll be back!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The picture shown needs to be updated as the furniture is totally different. There is an easy boy couch and chair and a big wood table which made it very cramped. While nice it was way too Big for the small area. All the drawers were filled with games and toys, so it was not suitable for 4 of us.Also the closet was too full to hang clothes up. It needs to be cleaned out and made available for renters to use. It was clean, and the kitchen was well stocked. It is a great location, but comfortable wise it’s just too small for 4 people.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The rental was a good location and clean but could do with an upgrade. Upon arrival the code for the front door ok but could not access the pool gate or the entrance to the beach as the code was not correct. We spoke to a permanent resident and was told that the code changes monthly. We saw a sign onside the lift that the place had to be fumigated inside the unit but was not notified by the agent. I am tea drinker and there was not a kettle so had to boil water on the stove as not issue but a kettle would be better as there were so many other unnecessary items in the kitchen but no kettle.Overall the place is just ok and we enjoy our stay Maui.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great stay! The rental location is very convenient, a short drive to anything you need and a short walk to smaller shopping areas. It is very clean and the AC was very comfortable. We were also delighted to be provided with some beach essentials like a cooler and chairs! You can see the sunset from the balcony which was amazing, and having the beach a few steps away was perfect.The stove is a bit finnicky and the kitchen isn't 100% fully stocked with some kitchen accessories that would be nice to have. Also, no shower toiletries were provided nor many pantry staples like coffee, oil, etc. Just some things to plan to bring or purchase if you stay here!

We had trouble with the Living room TV which we reported and it was promptly replaced.Two items you may not be aware of: 1) The two recessed lights in the entry bathroom quit working and 2) the drapes in the living room are not fully attached to the hooks by the sliding door and the drapes in the bedroom are a little worn. (We left a note)Overal a very enjoyable time.

We very much enjoyed our stay Beautiful sunrises however no sunsets from the balcony . The view of the ocean is great Unfortunately you could not hear the waves because the unit is situated at a very busy road//intersection so there is a lot of traffic noise The unit was clean however the kitchen could have been better organized. Previous guests likely just placed stuff everywhere . The dishwasher needs to be serviced as dishes would not always come clean as evidenced from the dishes put away in the cupboards The unit does need to be upgraded but you can easily overlooked this because it is nicely situated close to the ocean which is a huge benefit We thought it was great value for what we paid
