Absolutely amazing location! We loved the proximity to everything that we needed and wanted. This was a dreamy vacation that will stay forever with us!

We have nothing but positive things to say about this vacation rental. Check in was easy, (aside from me inadvertently deleting our welcome packet)! Though we had to pay, parking was never an issue. The condo was very clean, nicely stocked with kitchenware and beach accessories as well. Our mattresses, pillows and sheets were very comfortable. For us, the location was perfect. But the best part of this unit is the huge lanai with the breathtaking views and sounds of the ocean! We enjoyed our morning coffee watching and listening to the birds in the Palm trees and spotting the sea turtles coming up to the surface for air. There is nothing like falling asleep and waking up to an ocean breeze and the sounds of crashing waves! Air conditioning is available if needed. The pool is heated and we cooked on the available grills to make a few delicious dinners! We all agree, we will stay here again when we return.

We were very pleased with our stay. The location was perfect. We were able to walk to local restaurants and shops if we wanted, and beach access was a breeze. Beautiful views, comfortable bed, ample amenities. We really appreciated having beach chairs and a cooler available to use and laundry detergent. It was nice to be able to wash our clothes after a day at the beach! The staff on site was very welcoming and kind. Parking was easy and the area was safe and clean. Beautiful grounds. We would definitely stay again

Our family of three stayed here for Spring Break. It was just right - a "home away from home", not busy and had the right amenities for our needs. We wanted something a little out of the way from the main Kaanipali resort area, and Kahana point was perfect. It had a little village coffee place, and walking distance to a few small markets. The main feature for us was the lovely pool area. We sat by the pool daily overlooking the ocean with our 6.5-year daughter. It was never overwhelmed with too many people. Just a nice spot for quiet, small groups and families with kids. We loved that our daughter often met other kids and could play with them too. The vibe was so relaxed and friendly. We loved having this apartment as our home base. We could get up and get going to our activities anywhere on the island, and get home anytime we needed to. There was always parking space and easy access to the building. The apartment had a washer/dryer unit so we could wash and dry clothes and towels, which reduced the amount of things we needed to bring. It also made it easy to have multiple pool/beach activities in the day without having to deal with wet towels. Having a small kitchen and fridge saved us time and money. We could buy prepped foods from the market, eat cereal, re-heat leftovers and so on. The balcony in the unit was wonderful. Cool breezes and views! The building is indeed older and is not sparkly new, but no problem at all. Staff was helpful and accommodating. Recommend!

This place is even more beautiful than the pictures. Close to the best beaches and restaurants on Maui. Spend a week surrounded by the blue expanse and rhythm of waves. You won't regret it.

great condo on the water with the waves sending you to sleep every night. Unit was a great one with wrap around lani so you have a view of the ocean and the pool. High enough to watch the turtles every day in the water and see a few whales and dolphins. Thanks for a great stay

The property is true to the website photos. The view from our Lanai was spectacular and having a unit on the 12th Floor, which is the highest floor, was a bonus! We would stay here again.

We had an amazing stay on the island of Maui with restaurants just a minute away! We snorkled right in front of our condo and had a blast! Unit could use a little restarations but over all had an amazing trip and will do it again next year.

May 2025

We had the good fortune to rent the condo in 2024, and having had a great time, decided we'd do it again in 2025. We were late in our requested timing but was still able to work a week (stayed an extra day this year) at a good time to see the whales. There are many amenities in the condo to make you feel at home. A good collection of beach toys of boogey boards, coolers, chairs & umbrellas gets you set for a day at the beach. Same for the kitchen with coffee makers, grinders, cooking and other items, to make the stay as comfortable as being at home.But we choose to "stay in" and enjoy it like a "home away from home" with no big push to do anything, except relax and absorb the magic. We do go to the local "food truck" park and bring back to enjoy outside ocean views with "fine dining". The view includes both Molokai & Lanai, with great sunsets to enjoy in the evening. Walking distance from many good restaurants, and short drive to snorkeling, hiking or just some lounging on the beach. Looking forward to the next time!Mahalo!

The room really smelled good and was very clean . Everything you could have needed was in the room. We really didn't get to enjoy room as much as we wanted but loved it from the time we walked in. Thanks for a great stay.Ralph and Debbie

Great proximity to shops, great restaurants, breakfast nooks, famous cinnamon rolls at Papa Ohanas who also had Amazing pizzas. Beach front access was great for launching paddle boards. We found fun hilly run across the street!! Loved it! Anynissues were immediately resolved. Owner was easy to communicate with and quick to respond ! Highly recommend

We enjoyed our stay :) The location was great and the grounds were nice, though there really isn't a beach (just stacked sandbags). It was easy to walk to the beachfront of the neighboring resorts, though, with areas to set up our chairs. The condo itself was comfortable and well-kept. We did have one big issue, though-- we used the living room sofa bed for our daughter, and she had a terrible time trying to sleep due to a very loud whistling noise that was coming through the crack between the double-front doors, something we could not fix. We were able to lower the volume/strength of the wind whistling through by keeping the balcony sliding door open an inch, but the whistling was still so noisy. We did let the management company know so that hopefully they can figure out a solution (weather-stripping between the two front doors to better seal them perhaps?). We thought we should include this in our review, though, in case it is not fixed and any other families plan to use the living room as a bedroom. Overall, though, we did enjoy our stay, and couldn't have asked for a better location!

We’ve stayed in a lot of VRBO rentals over the years in many different locations. This is by far away the best we’ve ever stayed in. You can’t beat the 10th floor about 30 feet off of the ocean with turtles swimming directly below your balcony and whales breaching in the horizon. Not to mention the unit itself is beautifully appointed with updated furniture and a massive television. It also comes equipped with everything you need for the beach for six people: six backpack style beach, chairs, three umbrellas, three coolers and a plethora of Sandcastle making toys. It was very clean and the kitchen had everything we needed for our stay. We hope to be able to stay here again on our next visit!

This property is even better then described. We were able to watch Whales and Sea turtles from the balcony and the best sunset view. Beach chairs and coolers and such are there along with beach towels. They literally have thought of everything.

We had a wonderful stay! We enjoyed breakfast every morning on the deck looking out over the ocean. We saw whales as well. The sunset was also perfect from the deck. We had a beautiful breeze that would flow through our place.

Rented Keri’s property April 2-10 and loved every moment. This property has it all! Fully stocked kitchen, washer/dryer, bathroom toiletries, beach equipment and did I mention the view? Our first morning I saw a whale while enjoying my morning coffee on the lanai, plus all the turtle sightings. Keri provided detailed information on places to visit, eat, etc. The property staff are all very friendly and there is even a concierge on site to provide island tour options, either on your own or with a tour provider. I couldn’t have asked for a better vacation. I only wish I could have stayed longer.

We just returned from Maui. It isn't often that your living arrangements for the week find their way on to the highlight reel for the vacation, but in this case, the condo was a much more than a 10/10. Prior to arrival, I had questions that Keri quickly responded to and was extremely kind & friendly in responses. The check in process at the Royal Kahana was seamless and everyone at the facility was wonderful. It was easy to find, parking was never an issue and the pool area was great.AND then you walk into the Oasis that Keri has created. Keri literally forgot nothing when setting up this condo. It is stocked with anything that you could ever want or need. It is beautifully updated with comfortable furniture and the bed might be the most comfortable bed that I have ever slept in! The sunset on the lanai every night is worth a million dollars and being able to wake up listening to the waves is priceless. We were pleasantly surprised what is within walking distance. Across the street is a McDonald's along with a Whalers General Store and about a 1/2 a block down is a strip mall that has a great little hometown style bar called Dollies. The locals belly up and they are extremely friendly to the tourists and happy hour was CHEAP! We walked 2 condos down and had breakfast around the pool at Captain Jack's. Breakfast was reasonably priced and very good. If we make it to Maui again, We will definitely be staying here again! Thank you for the best week ever!

April 2025

The check-in process was clear and easy. The property management was attentive and opened. They checked in with us often if we had any questions or concerns. The view was gorgeous. It was nice waking up to the view of the ocean. Everything we needed for cooking was available. There are beach chairs as well. We had one minor issue it was that the washer in the condo was not functioning; therefore the property management did communicate that with us in advance and informed us we could use the onsite washer and they’ll reimburse us. It was a little inconvenient because I had to hand wash a few things since I didn’t feel like going to onsite washer, but I did appreciate the advance notice about this. When it’s windy, it can get a little loud but I was able to close the windows to minimize the sound. The noisy wind is not daily so it wasn’t a big problem. Overall my family and I enjoyed our stay. It felt like home.

Great communication with owner prior to trip.Easy "late arrival" access. Parking no problem.Excellent location on the oceanfront.Clean, spacious condo.Very nice and much appreciated welcome basket of goodies.Well appointed with all you need. (Except a cooking sheet)Nice to have a reliable refrigerator ice machine that churns out the cubes. (very important in this hot weather location!)Beach toys and umbrellas available for use although some could use a little repair.We experienced a half day interruption in power having occurred throughout the building, which was well communicated with the owner, and which we acknowledged was out of their control.Restaurants and grocery stores were a short drive away and very useful for us.All in all a very delightful vacation and exactly as advertised.

Let me start by saying I did get a good amount refunded by the owner of the condo. So that was helpful. Howeve, upon arrival I noticed mold in the shower at first (we arrived later in the day and were tired from travel) so we firstly go washed up and took a shower after a late dinner. The mold in the shower on the ceiling and upper walls was black mold. So that sparked my inspection of the rest of the space. The walls not only in the main bathroom had mold, the light fixture and the laundry room that was also attached had mold spores on the ceiling as well. I suppose bad ventilation. But, I messaged the owner and he acted as though this was the first he's heard. However, it was apparent that there was new paint that was painted over corners of the ceilings and upper walls as if this has been an issue and was being covered up. It's obvious, the older walls were a dingy white and the new paint painted over certain areas was a true new white. Outside the laundry room in the hallway there was a HUGE stain probably about 3 feet by 3 feet of black mold on the ceiling hallway. There was also roaches periodically around the condo. The furniture had dust CAKED on them and was apparently not clean. The floors were dirty, with dirt and tons of left over sand. The washer smelled terribly, so we avoided using it unless towels needed to be cleaned. Mid stay there was a pest control person who showed up unannounced and sprayed WHILE we were in the space getting ready. So awkward.

Wonderful location, super clean condo with lots of amenities provided. Lots of communication from owner and easy to understand instructions. Probably one of the best stocked condos we've ever stayed in. Everything felt new and the view from the lanai simply can't be beat.

We had a wonderful week at this location! It's a wonderful spot surrounded by great restaurants and stores, close to whalers village and other popular locations. The condo was clean and spacious, had everything we needed. The dryer broke before we came but the host was accomodating and brought us extra towels. Pool is small but there's lots of chairs and its never full. You don't have beach front directly in front but its a very short walk to a great beach and swimming area. Parking was great. We were not expecting to have that be an additional charge, figured it came with the cost but that's pretty common at places in maui so it didn't bother us much. The room also came with 4 beach chairs which was amazing to bring with us every day. Super close to a snorkel bobs where you can get more chairs and tents to rent. Napili is just a SHORT drive away and it's the most beautiful beach. We would definitely stay here again!

This was my first time to Maui and it was wonderful. The condo was comfortable and the views were incredible. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. Loved all the plastic containers for our snacks and food to take to the golf courses. The pool could use some maintenance along the edging where the tile was missing and there appeared to be algae growing.

Aloha!!! We thoroughly enjoyed our vacation in this awesome condo. The views of the ocean were magnificent. We cancelled a couple of activities so we could just relax and enjoy our peaceful condo. If you visit Maui we highly recommend visiting the Pineapple Farm (near the airport). The complimentary pineapples were the best and juciest pineapple we've ever eaten!!! Mahalo ... Michael!!!

Came here during spring break in March 2025. Here’s what I would say. Like in many other reviews, the building and condo are older, we knew that going in. it could use a new coat of paint and a refresh for some of the furniture. My daughter complained that her bed was super squeaky and would wake her up. The air conditioning didn’t work all that well, it is not central air. It struggled to keep up and the temps were high 70s and lower 80s. Pool was basic, but nice. Beach was a little bit of a disappointment because it’s sandbagged which took away from the beauty of the beach views IMO. Balcony was a wrap around which was great for looking out at the ocean, but you really couldn’t keep the windows open at night because the air conditioning would get overloaded. Also there are many windows in the condo so you really had to make sure curtains were pulled to manage the heat in the afternoon. The beach access is the next building over. So you would need to carry supplies about 50-100 yards or so, not that big of a deal, but something to consider.. Kitchen was well appointed, Communication with owner was good, had an issue checking in and she was quick to respond. Location overall was good, there’s a few restaurants, dive shop, convenience store, liquor store, and coffee shop all with walking distance which was great.Quick drive to Kaanapali beach and Blackrock. This is not luxury or the 4 Seasons, but it was a large unit with plenty of room for the 4 of us.

We enjoyed our 6-day stay. Condo was exactly as advertised, was very clean and full of amenities to enhance our stay…from the well-stocked kitchen to the beach accessories and the two pair of binoculars to whale watch from the lanai. The bed was comfy and the shower had good water pressure and temperature. The condo was a perfect size for the two of us.The building’s pool and BBQ area was a good size with shade, overlooking the ocean. There are sand bags on the shore to prevent erosion so there is no direct beach access but a small beach can be accessed just south of the property.Check in was very easy and parking was ample.We would recommend the condo to anyone looking to stay in the Kahana area.
