I throughly enjoyed listening to the waves crash on the shore. Perfect location.

The description provided details of a well-ma condo with a balcony that could be enjoyed from the living room. It turns out the owners have the door screwed shut! I had seen a negative comment in a previous review but mistakenly assumed it would be repaired before our trip. We had three unrelated parties in a three-bedroom unit. I would never have booked if the description were accurate. The property also said there was airconditioning. The upstairs has one wall unit for the first floor, with nothing in the bedroom. The outdoor temperature was only about 80 and it was cooler outside every afternoon. The third bedroom had a temporary unit with a flexible duct to the outdoors. The owners have obviously had complaints because there is now tint on the window, that is scrapped and peeling. Rather than just installing double pane windows which is probably the only proper fix. The fan in the master had only the light not the fan functioning. The reviews said the bathrooms needed to be remodeled. I am fine with old as long as they function. The tub divertor is rusting off, there is a piece of missing tile etc. The beds and accessories were probably fine 15 years ago. I have never been more disappointed in a VRBO. I am a VRBO owner myself and know what is needed to keep a property nice. The resort itself was wonderful. The problem is that they don't rent the unit, it is another company, so we couldn't even get a battery for the remote.

This is the best condo I have ever stayed in. It is stocked! Kitchen has everything you need to cook a meal, the whole condo had so many amenities! The view is exactly how described. Even though it is a first floor condo you feel like you are on the second floor. Great communication with the host.We had a small change and they were so accommodating ! We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it!

I gave 3 stars for the outstanding views but the condo needs improvements. We saw plenty whales, some breached the water. Huge turtles swimming in the water. The beach is very eroded so don’t plain on going there. There are many beaches around the area though. The AC doesn’t work in the bedroom. They said we would be getting a discount which we didn’t receive. There is also truly only 1 bedroom. A loft doesn’t count as another bedroom as it isn’t enclosed. If you don’t mind the AC not working in the bedroom you should be fine. It’s one on the reasons we booked there. The realty company insisted after a couple days that the AC did work but it never cooled down in there even with the fans they gave us. Yes, all windows rows and doors were closed.

The condo was beautiful and we had room enough for the 5 adults and 3 toddlers. The view and amenities were excellent. AC would have been a plus but we were able to have a breeze with all the windows and doors. We had the best time.

The view was fabulous. It was nice having the many amenities available at the complex.The grills for guests to use were very clean.The property is a little outdated and could use a freshening up, but overall it was comfortable and spacious enough for a group of 4 adults.It was understood by the listing that post-covid, there wouldn't really be anything in the kitchen other than dishes and cookware, which is fine since we usually buy our own spices and pantry items.I was wishing there would have been foil, plastic wrap and those sorts of products available as have always been in every rental I've ever stayed at.But overall, it was a nice place to stay.

Title: Stunning Maui Condo – Perfect for Relaxation and Adventure!Review:Our stay at this Maui condo was absolutely incredible! The moment we walked in, we were greeted with panoramic ocean views that took our breath away. Watching the sunrise with a cup of coffee on the balcony and the sunset with a glass of wine was pure magic.The condo itself was near spotless, nicely decorated, and fully stocked with everything we needed—from a well-equipped kitchen to beach chairs, body boards, and even a cooler for day trips. The bed was super comfortable, and the sound of the waves at night made for the most peaceful sleep.The location couldn’t be better—just steps from a gorgeous beach where we enjoyed snorkeling with sea turtles and even spotted many whales in the distance! It’s close to great restaurants, local shops, and scenic drives along the coast. The property amenities, including the pool, grills, and lush landscaping, were top-notch and well-maintained.The only minor downside was that both bathroom blinds could use replacement, and the master bath window overlooking the ocean needed a good cleaning on the outside. These were small issues and didn’t take away from the overall amazing experience.If you’re looking for a perfect blend of relaxation and adventure in Maui, this condo is the ideal choice. We’re already planning our next trip back!

Spent a week with my family and it was perfection! Lisa was an outstanding host! She was so accessible and helped with all things- from specific amenities and details to restaurant recommendations. She has thought of everything you could possibly need. Cannot recommend enough…we will definitely be back and would not stay anywhere else. Mahalo!

Reviewer Comments:
We loved our stay (my family from Denver and me from San Diego). I have a timeshare at Sands of Kahana and was there two weeks prior to moving to the three bedroom. I was only disappointed about the fact that there was not much notice (the day before I moved in) that you didn’t supply salt and pepper, coffee filters, laundry detergent, washing machine detergent, trash bags of paper products. I was told “we’re not a timeshare”. It was difficult to find two weeks’ worth of detergent; I could have brought things from home if I had notice. Salt , pepper, detergent and coffee filters are basic items in any rental unit. Luckily some items were left behind by previous tenants. Otherwise we loved it and are coming back the same time next year!

It was a wonderful week at the beach! Our hosts were great and had anything we could want for our stay already provided in the condo - beach accessories, well stocked kitchen, plenty of fans and Alexa’s in several rooms. Check in and check out were easy and there is a concierge desk that can help you find things to do. The unit is even nicer in person with an unbelievable view!

Accommodations were excellent! The view from all the different rooms had ocean view which was so spectacular! The penthouse was very clean and there was plenty of room for all eight of us. Our children and grandchildren also loved everything about it and the spacious layout.

Third time to Maui, first time in a vacation rental. Stayed in this unit with our 3 kids (14,17 and 25) and our daughter’s husband. The good: The layout was nice because our daughter had her own separate space on the upper level. The view from the penthouse lanai (9th floor) never disappointed. The proximity to the beach below was great. Lots of snorkel gear available for use and the property was closely located to other beaches and shopping. The not-so-good: Master bathroom shower and toilet area has seen better days, the stackable washer/dryer was very small for washing the large beach towels, the lanai gets very dirty and wet as it has no cover from roof runoff, the main windows have poorly installed or deteriorating tint film that really detracts from the indoor view, the penthouse gets very warm, the lanai could've maybe used an umbrella, a vacuum for the sand would’ve been helpful, resort activities cost extra if you are booking with app platforms and lastly, the communication to the host was not great…we communicated some uncleanliness upon check-in as well as broken appliances and a response (without resolution) was received 5 days later. Did we have a good time anyway? Yes! Will we stay at SoK again? Likely. Would we choose this unit again? Unfortunately probably not.

So many things made it special: the perfectly stocked kitchen, the great view of the ocean, the lanai, lovely leis and fresh flowers greeted us, Ryan’s accommodating and personable service (on-island caretaker), and the beautiful, and comfortable decor. The digital guidebook contained everything we needed to know about our stay there-so helpful!

Well maintained property with plenty of space for me, my husband, an elderly mother. Apartment was well stocked. Amazing views of lana’i and some nice sunsets. Very quick response from property management to minor issue. Be aware that second bedroom does not really have an accessible window so the air conditioner must be used for airflow. Would recommend.

We enjoyed this condo so much! The views from both balconies were spectacular! The space was very large for the two of us and honestly we spent more time on the balconies when we were in the room. We loved the location, the kitchen was extremely organized and clean. The only complaint we have is that we had to go home! We will definitely be back one day. The mattress could use an upgrade but at the end of the day it didn’t matter so much.

The location was convenient, but there were several issues during our stay. We noticed cockroaches in the room as well as insects in the pantry, where some food items were expired.The bathroom also had a problem with the toilet flush — it only worked in one direction, otherwise the water kept running.Overall, the cleanliness and upkeep need serious improvement.

Beautiful! Just as described! We throughly enjoyed our stay and the location was perfect for our first visit to Maui with two couples!! Fast check-in after our long travel was much appreciated.Very clean and well-stocked kitchen with everything you need (you would be hard-pressed NOT to find anything you needed) They thought of everything down to beach chairs, floats and coolers (which we put to good use during our road trips!) The view from the balcony is stunning where we spotted whales, turtles and a visit from a seal (bring your binoculars!)Overall a fantastic vacation! Thank you for sharing your paradise!

Cynthia’s place is amazing!! Walking in to the most beautiful view was what we all remember the most! As a family of five with three adult kids, the place was perfect for us! It was perfectly clean, very comfortable and we never wanted to leave! Cynthia was very responsive and helpful! Our whole experience there was amazing - and it was the best part of our trip! We haven’t stopped talking about Cynthia’s place!

There are not enough good things I could say about this property. Everything was perfect… the location, the view out the window, the proximity to a private beach. The unit was clean, airy, bright and spacious. Management was a dream to deal with, and the maintenance crew was prompt and attentive. I would go back to Maui in a heartbeat, just so I could stay here again

This was our first trip to Hawaii. We poured over where to stay and finally decided this was the place. We chose wisely. This condo checked all our boxes and met every expectation we had. It was clean, the views were absolutely stunning, the resort was quiet, great beach access. On-site restaurant was convenient and delicious. Other dining options were all very close. The condo had everything we needed. The hosts were responsive when a very minor entirely incidental issue cropped up with an HVAC unit and it was taken care of by their team on the island promptly. I would recommend this property to anyone wanting a fantastic oceanfront experience on Maui. It was a perfect trip for us.

This was a wonderful condo to rent for myself, husband, 3-year-old, and parents. It's in an awesome location, on a beautiful beach with super clear and warm water and soft sand. The views from the unit are INSANE and unobstructed. It comes equipped with everything you need, including basic spices and supplies for cooking, beach towels, toys, and chairs, and plenty of linens and towels. They ask that you keep the AC to no lower than 74 degrees and it does get hot, but there are multiple fans throughout the unit. Access to the pool and hot tub were also extremely nice. We will definitely be back!

Family of 7 thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beautifully updated and spacious unit. The view is incredible from a shaded balcony. Comfy and quality bedding with king size beds in every room. Our host was very responsive. Lots of little extras like beach toys, chairs, board games and even binoculars for whale watching.
