What Do Guests Think? An Analysis of 1000 Guest Reviews


Reviewer Portrait

The following executive summary is based on a comprehensive and impartial AI analysis of guest reviews. Keep in mind that all units are individually owned, and review scores among units can vary considerably.

The Palms at Wailea delivers a relaxed, upscale condo-resort vibe with lush landscaping, a quiet atmosphere, and lovely sunset views. Guests love the location: a short drive (and walkable for many) to Keawakapu and Wailea beaches, the coastal boardwalk, shops, and restaurants, plus easy access to Kihei. The ocean-view pool and hot tub are a frequent highlight, and many guests spend mornings or evenings on large lanais soaking in the scenery.

Condos are spacious and well suited to families and longer stays, with full kitchens, in‑unit laundry, and generous outdoor space. Many units are recently updated, very clean, and thoughtfully stocked—often including beach chairs, umbrellas, coolers, and snorkel gear. Hosts and managers are commonly praised for quick, friendly communication, making check‑in easy and resolving minor issues fast.

Things to know: amenities and finishes vary by individually owned unit, and some are older or lightly worn—check listings for recent updates and A/C details. A recurring theme is limited or bedroom‑only A/C, so living areas can be warm; road noise can affect perimeter buildings; and the walk to the beach can be hilly—many guests drive with gear. Pool rules skew quiet (limited toys, no music/alcohol) and shade is limited; private BBQs are restricted in many units with shared grills provided. Typical for the tropics, occasional ants/bugs pop up; supplies are often “starter only.” If sensitive to any of the above, look for inner‑ring or renovated units with full A/C and confirm stairs/elevator, bedroom privacy (some second bedrooms use sliding doors), and grill access before booking.

Great stay, clean property in amazing location.

We very much enjoyed our 7-night stay in this Palms condo. Brian was an excellent host as he was always available to answer our questions and did everything to ensure that our stay was pleasant and comfortable. The unit is exactly as pictured and was complete with everything we needed. We really appreciated all the beach items – towels, chairs, and umbrella, along with the hard side cooler which we used everyday as we visited every corner of the island during our stay. We valued the proximity to town with the beaches, restaurants, and grocery store five to ten minutes away yet just a few minutes from Highway 31 making it a good base for the longer day trips to Hana and Haleakalā. Hopefully, we will return to Maui soon, and with any luck we will rebook with Brian for that vacation.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Amenities were super accessible, easy walk to the pool, AC is A+, very clean with nice updates.Only downsides - mattresses were very soft, there isn't much of a view, and there's no noise isolation in the 2nd bedroom so if you have a light sleeper in there you will probably wake them up if you do anything in the living room or kitchen.Overall super nice unit, we just got home and are already talking about booking another stay here next year.

This was the perfect spot to celebrate our honeymoon! The property was spotless, check-in was seamless, and the whole experience truly made our trip unforgettable. Communication with the owner was quick and easy, which made everything stress-free. We also really appreciated how well-stocked the rental was — from shampoo, lotion, and sunscreen to beach gear, coffee mugs, and even a cooler we used on our hikes and beach days. Every little detail made our stay that much more comfortable. We couldn’t have asked for a better place and will absolutely try to book here again the next time we’re in Maui!

We had the best time in Maui, it was our first time to Hawaii, and it was perfect. The accommodations were excellent, exactly like the pictures, so comfortable and well-stocked. It had everything we needed, including boogie boards for my teenage boys. Jillian was amazing, very responsive, helpful and so accommodating. We stay in a lot of Vrbo's and this was by far the best so far! Perfect location would highly recommend and would for sure book again.

We had a lovely stay, they allowed early check in which was very nice and helpful! The main area was quite hot as only AC in the bedroom. Other than that no issues!

The condo is beautifully located with a stunning garden view. Early morning coffee on the lanai was the perfect way to start the day. The accommodations were clean and comfortable with many high end touches. Bonnie provided clear communication and a great list of nearby places to help make our trip more enjoyable. I would definitely stay here again.

This unit was impeccable. We wished we had just decided to stay here for the entirety of our trip to Maui. Good amount of space and it had absolutely everything you could need, especially for a family with young children. Communication with the owner was easy as well. Palms at Wailea is our favorite place to stay and this is our favorite unit we’ve stayed at. We will be looking to stay here for future trips to Maui.

Great location. Walk to the best beach in Maui in 5 minutes. A block from the big hotels and shoreline path. Spacious unit with large lanai.

August 2025

The condo was great, it felt like we were staying in a friends home that was well taken care of and there were many memories. It was spotless and had everything we needed to cook, go to the beach and the larger property is well maintained. As a family we got into a great routine of going to the beach, coming back using the pool and watching the sunset. The location is perfect. Easy access to beaches, restaurants and anything you need. We will be back. Mahalo

August 2025

Condo is located in a beautiful location. Exterior is well maintained and cleaned . You can easily walk to the near by stores within 5 to 10 minute walk. Beds were very comfortable. Only downside was that there was only 1 split system air conditioning unit in the master bedroom and even when keeping the shades down and windows closed it did not cool down the entire condo. The master bedroom remained the coolest and most comfortable room to sleep in and also became a room we lounged in to cool off. They do offer plenty of standing fan units to plug in , but just be aware. I would still recommend this condo to anyone in the future. It offers great views to the ocean and we enjoyed watching the sunset from the lanai.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: While I will say the unit could use upgrades but the location makes up for that! Sunsets from lanai are incredible. It is a bottom unit but because it’s on a hill you do NOT feel like your below. Very quiet area .

Great spot, kids loved the pool and a brief walk to the beach.
Pedro V.
August 2025

Check-in process was easy — you just need to know the code for the lock. We stayed at the end of July, and it was hot during the day, but the condo has air conditioning in each room, which keeps it cool and comfortable.The kitchen has everything you need, even a thermometer for grilling meat. The condo also includes a lot of beach gear — chairs, towels, a cover, umbrella, children's toys, and small paddle boards.The host was very responsive and answered all our questions and concerns quickly.The condo is also not far from the beach — you can walk to the nearest one.

We had a wonderful stay at Jillian’s property. The condo is exceptionally well equipped with so many thoughtful and useful items. It is clearly a well loved vacation home and we would stay there again if returning to Maui. The condo has convenient parking and is hidden away in a quiet part of the Palms complex with no through traffic. As an added bonus we also had a great view of the 4th July fireworks from the lanai. The Palms complex is well maintained.The pool has no umbrellas (or shade of any form) and a strict no noise policy/pool games policy at any time. Suitable for those without children/teens but was a bit sedate and too much sun exposure for our family. However the closest beach (parking lot at end of S Kihei Rd) is only a short drive or walk and was lovely. Jillian provided an umbrella and beach chairs which were appreciated.

Beautiful and clean home. They are very attentive to detail. I usually don't sleep well when I'm not a home, but I was very comfortable and slept well here.

This property is exactly as advertised. It accommodated our family of 6 very comfortably. The two sofa sleepers are a game changer and my kids said they were very comfortable. The condo is conveniently located close to several very good beaches and well stocked with everything we needed during our stay. All of the rooms in the condo have AC which is very nice! Host Jillian is super responsive and very easy to work with. She does a great job of making sure guests are comfortable and satisfied. We’ll certainly stay here again when returning to Maui!

Our family of 4 absolutely loved the property. The property was clean, the kitchen was fantastic, and the location couldn't be beat. The pool was great and the unit was a short walk to the beach - we used the included beach chairs every day! We are looking to rebook next year already!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great experience and hope others will too. Our original rental unit became unavailable at check-in due to an issue with the AC. The property manager immediately had an alternative rental for us to check into. While it was further away from the beach, the unit itself was great! Ocean view, the most comfortable beds & bedding we’ve ever had outside of our own home, And fully stocked with everything we could need.

My family and I enjoyed this condo. Great location, we are a family of 6 and it fit us perfectly. My kids loved the pool area and the large grassy area we had by our lanai. The condo was well equipped with everything we needed. Very clean as well. The hosts were very helpful and we had great communication. We will def be booking with them again. Thank you for making our vacation wonderful!
