First of all, I want to say that communication with the property manager was excellent! He answered all of my questions immediately.
The apartment is in a complex. It’s a first floor unit with a back sitting area. Very comfortable bed and nice kitchen. Kitchen is fully stocked with pots, pans, utensils, etc. but some basics like oil, ketchup and mustard would be a great addition. Oh and coffee filters.
There are ceiling fans in each room which is good, but air conditioning in the bedroom would be a nice addition. It didn’t cool down quite enough at night during our stay.
But, overall, this is a really nice apartment in a neighborhood near stores and food. Ample parking. We were very happy there

The condo was as advertised! Steps to the beach in a quiet complex. Visited in December 2023 and wildlife galore, humpback whales and their calf's, turtles, monk seals, and snorkeling as good as anywhere we went on the island. Definitely will be back.

The good:
The apartment was recently renovated, it's clean, has the latest amenities, and is located minutes from stores and public beaches. The owner provided beach towels, chairs, an umbrella, a cooler, and even snorkeling equipment. The management is responsive (for the most part - see below).
The bad:
Noise! There is no A/C, so you will almost certainly sleep with windows open. People are moving in and out, walking past your bedroom windows talking loudly, and slamming doors day and night. Also, there are wild chickens everywhere with roosters crowing all night long. So, if you want a quiet place, look elsewhere.
Another problem is that even though the management company is responsive during business hours, their after-hours support is virtually non-existent. We had an issue with the fire alarm in our unit going off 5 times in the middle of the night. I called the emergency support line and was promised that "a manager" would call me back right away. An hour later I called again and was told that "an on-call team" would get back to me but nobody did. Meanwhile, the alarm kept blasting. In the end, they contacted me after the office opened in the morning and sent an electrician to fix the issue. I was offered compensation for the troubles but having my family stay awake all night long listening to the fire alarm wasn't my idea of a dream vacation.

The property is beautifully appointed and you couldn’t ask for a better location. It was difficult to return home and fall asleep without the sound of crashing waves right outside our window!

I gave 4 out of 5 stars because this is not a bells and whistles condo. It is in great shape with a clean kitchen and recently updated bathrooms. But it isn't a lavish property. But having said that, it's a great bargain for what you get and we were very comfortable there for the 7 days of our trip. The veranda is lovely and the view is stellar. The furniture could be updated but it is comfortable. The chart yard garden is also lovely and it's in a great location with the park/beach next door. We booked it on a whim and would book again.

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The condo is well equipped for what we needed, including beach gear. We made dinner here a few times and everything worked out well.
The beach here has eroded more than we expected so we opted to use the public beach access points. They fixed the hot tub late in our stay but the pool and grills were in great shape.

We loved the unit and location.. couldn't afford to pay the big prices for the more central places and this place was an easy bus ride to the nice beaches. It was great to swim out the front here too. The added extras in the unit like snorkelling gear, beach chairs, body boards, we're all appreciated!

I was initially disappointed with how dirty the unit was when we first arrived. The last thing I wanted to do was clean the unit just to be able to relax, but that is what we did for the first hour before settling in. The floor was disgusting, the bathrooms looked like they hadn’t been touched in months. To top it off, the available cleaning supplies were less than ideal to use to clean.
The bed frame in the master bedroom is broken, so my sleeping situation was uncomfortable for the stay.
Our kids were disappointed because the hot tub was broken. I wouldn’t put this in the review, but the property manager said all owners have known for several months about the hot tub issue. This was not stated in the property description.

When I finally got here (not that getting HERE was difficult) but, it being Tuesday- before Thanksgiving- the office was closed at 12pm. And I had searched for days beforehand for D. Susser’s name, info, ANYTHING for him- but I had nothing!
Now, I’m in a time crunch situation where- I’m tired as h to the double hockey sticks (bc I’ve gotten up at 5am my time, traveled all day, and now it’s 12am my time-8pm here). There’s a number to text, but it’s for drivers (if you don’t want to get your car towed). I try it? I get a response : “is this an emergency?” And I think to myself, no, it’s not an emergency for the tow truck driver to figure out where my owner is!?!
So, it’s~8.30pm, & I go to Travelocity? There are 2 separate units available, 1 for $2k & the other for $850, so I unwillingly go for the $850 (pre-taxes).
The next day, when I drove to Paki Maui, I’m told by David Susser, that VRBO was supposed to have emailed me a sheet with all of this info three days before my trip?
So I didn’t need worry, or fret, or press “contact VRBO” (because it will only say device disconnected, try again later!)
And don’t worry, I called David Susser, and he happily told me that VRBO was supposed to fulfill all my needs (again wrong), but he did quickly tell me about a guy who invited a guy over who happened to be a squatter (!) but he did NOT tell me that I was NOT supposed to lock the upper lock on the front door!
The entire trip would’ve been lost if it weren’t for waves

Condo comfortable. Lots of amenities packed into small space. Beachfront, could watch whales from lanai. Really appreciated the good binoculars!! Fans great, didn't get hot. Big doors opening to lanai felt like inside-out living space. Easy check-in and out. Boogie board, beach umbrella, cooler bags, beach chairs provided and great to have. Comfortable bed in bedroom. Small kitchen if you want to cook but had everything we needed, including good ice maker. Corner unit so was nice onky having neighbor on one side.
Only slightly negatives. With windows and doors open there is transiet noise, i.e., people walking by in halls, trash pick-up, lanai next door.... But short lived and to be expected for number of units packed in. View from couch is next door building because unit is on end. But if you face the ocean on lanai, you can ignore that view. First floor unit off ground so have to walk out backside, downstairs to parking lot and then take sidewalk around to front of unit. Again, not a problem but good to know ahead of time, esp if you have kids.
Easy communication with manager. Location great for walking around Honowokua. Farmer market across street several days/week. Sand beach next door at park. Ocean in front of unit has tiny sand beach at low tide with a reef out front so there is a little protected swimming area. Pool, hot tub, bbq available at other end of condos.
Good value for beachfront 1 bedroom spot that is a part of a larger pack-them -in condo spread.

Don’t have enough positives to describe our stay at Jill’s place at Paki Maui. The pictures and online description are as it is. It’s a great condo with beautiful views of the Pacific and neighboring Molokai and Lanai islands. Jill was so great to work with, and she always responded promptly! This condo is all you will need for a perfect trip to Maui. Can’t wait to come back!

The condo was clean, but isn't anything fancy, just a nice beach condo. The beds were great. The small airport there was pretty noisy, and there were a lot of different noises all night. It's not a quiet place but earplugs helped.
There is no beach access on the property, nor is there any handicap access to the pool. There are a lot of homeless people to go thru at the neighboring park to get to the beach but they were all friendly. Snorkeling was awesome, and the turtles went all daylong. It was fun to watch the locals fish in the evenings from the balcony.
All of the stores were very near. Be sure to check out the farmer's market across the street.

We spent 10 days at this property for our family vacation and would do it again in a heartbeat. It was clean, in a great location, with stunning views from the balcony. We got to see several sea turtles from the lawn which was amazing. The only real drawback is that the beach is not easily accessible from the lawn due to the condition of the stairs & handrails, but there are no shortage of great beaches within a very short drive. We had a greaat time & highly recommended this property.

We are so grateful for this experience and are sad to leave.

Great Location and a beautiful view of both the mountains and the ocean. There is also a secluded beach that is very private although a little intimidating to get to. Well worth the work.
Very clean and functional space.

Overall was a great stay. Property does need some upgrading as linnen and carpets were showing their age. Location is great close to grocery stores, coffee shop and most beaches. Unit has most things that you require for the beach including umbrelas, towels, boogie boards and chairs

The condo itself was well furnished, good beds, kitchen had everything you could want. But, the most outstanding feature was the location. On the water, every afternoon we sit on the lanai and watch turtles feed on the reef less than 50 feet away. An easy walk 1 block to a market, coffee store and three excellent small restaurants / take out places. Although no beach sand on the property nice small beach park is right next door.

Great place to stay in Maui, celebrating our anniversary. The view is beautiful from the Lanai, and the place is comfortable. Loved being on the fourth (top) floor.
We were surprised by how small it seemed when we first walked in. However, after settling in, it was plenty big for two of us. The condo had everything we needed, including plenty of plugs. Opening the front and lanai doors allows cooling breeze. Sue was awesome and responsive!
The view of the ocean is beautiful. The view straight-out and to the right are unobstructed of the ocean. There is a building to the left, but you can see the ocean past it. It was fun to watch the sea turtles swim past, including one that was the largest we've seen. Sunsets are gorgeous.
There is some nice snorkeling right out from the room. It is a little difficult to get to the water. The steps down were cordoned off, and it is rocky as you go out into the water. However, it was easy enough to maneuver for us. We picked up some snorkel gear right across the street at Boss Frogs.
The facility doesn't have a beach. There is a lawn area right in front of the water, with some comfortable chaise lounges and chairs available. There is a small beach right next to the condos that is easily accessible if you're looking for sand. There are also other beaches nearby.
Short easy drive to Lahaina. We loved Honokowai Okazuya restaurant across the street. Grocery store was very close.
Highly recommend for your stay in Maui!
