Property in a great location. A few housekeeping issues that were addressed but other than that unit quite clean just dated and small tv in front room not visible when sitting on couches. Kitchen fully stocked with everything you would need just no bbq on deck as per strata rules.

It was a very nice property and very clean! The location was great for the beaches and getting around to local restaurants and businesses. We would stay again.

Loved the home; we are a family of 6, and our only hoope would be that next time there are enough dishes and cutlery so we didnt have to wash as much. With 4 hungry kids after the beach it was a challenge. Additional soap, TP and detergent was also something we needed to purchasee over and above. A little noisy as we didn't realize the unit was so close to the road. Overall an amazing family getaway.

We had a great stay at Paul's condo and can't wait for another trip to Maui in the future!We've stayed in The Palms condo community before and love the views, pool, and grounds. On this trip we spent most of our time enjoying the lovely pool, but also appreciated easy access to the beach. It is also very easy to drive into Kihei for dinner or to one of the restaurants in Wailea. We will be back again!

Just like the photos! The balcony was lovely for morning coffee and watching the sunset. We even saw some whales splashing in the ocean. Beautiful sunsets at the unit or the pool with the surround trees and landscape. Close to restaurants and great beaches. Honestly, just a great location. Glad we chose to stay on this side of the island. We would stay on this property again, just in a different unit with firmer beds.

The rooms were comfortable and as promised. Kitchen had enough utensils. The grounds were well maintained. My only negative is that the pool was too cool, which was welcome for a quick dip but hard to stay in for long.

The lounges on the lanai need to have cushions! I got charged for air conditioning but never used it - would like a refund! Toilet paper so thin like tissue paper. I felt I overpaid for this property-it was nice but not over the top! Kitchen was well equipped!

Nice condo. Washer /dryer needs updating (dryer door broken & washer had mold). Knobs on oven range have numbers rubbed off so hard to tell heat setting. Water filter in fridge needed to be replaced. Just minor things though. Location was great! Beds were comfy. Great parking spot. Nice to have A/C!

This property is exactly as advertised. The property is in a great complex. Very well maintain. It is also a great location easy walk to one of the nicest beaches on the island. It is also a short drive for all amenities, store, bars, restaurants and gym. Would highly recommend this location.

January 2025

We loved the convenient location and that we could walk to the beach in 10 minutes. The complex has a nice pool too. The apartment was very clean and well appointed. It even had beach towels, pool towels, and beach chairs for us to use! We had a wonderful time. I would recommend this apartment.

We absolutely loved this unit. It was beautiful, very clean and was stocked with every detail you could think of. I have stayed at a few VRBO's and none have been as well stocked as this one. The location is perfect it's a short walk down to the beach and then an easy walk all along the water up past the Four Seasons. The lanai was lovely to sit on in the morning you can see the ocean from it which was nice. Thank you for everything!

There is a reason this property has consistent 5 star reviews. We have stayed at the Palms on several occasions and Rose's unit is by far the best. She had everything we needed and then some. This property has all the amenities of a well stocked home, perfect for two or for entertaining. We had some last minute adjustments and Rose was willing and able to accommodate us which we greatly appreciated. We will definitely stay here again!

Great condo and location for our family holiday. Kitchen was well stocked with utensils and pans for cooking meals. Plenty of beach chairs, boogie boards & cooler for family of four. Close enough to run to Ulua Beach path in the mornings but had to drive and park to load in and out for a day at the beach. Great sized bathrooms and plenty of towels. Beds were comfortable. Only issue we had were the sliding doors the first night we arrived. Called maintenance and they fixed quickly! Would visit again!

We were amazed by this condo. It was so clean, and all the lil extras were the perfect touch.The lil extras - beach chairs, snorkeling, umbrellas, boogie board, soaps, lint roller, and so much more. It was the perfect place to spend Christmas. The only downfall is we did struggle with finding light switches at times and they are low on the wall. But we definitely will come back.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very clean /spacious and very nicely equipped, I didn’t have to buy anything extra. Walking distance to beach nearby to walk or swim and view sunset. We also took some nice pictures of sunset outside of the house on the lawn. We slept well, cooked a few meals and used the laundry couple of times.

We stayed in Maui for 6 nights. The condo was spacious for our family of 4, clean, well equipped and well located. Jillian, the host, was super responsive and also helpful with local recommendations. We would recommend this property to others visiting this beautiful island!

Very dated, no spices but listing said it had them. Also listing said there was a BBQ and there is a picture of it in the listing.

We enjoyed our stay at the Palm's, this was the third time we've rented condos in this complex, so we know what to expect and are familiar with the area. This particular condo had some nice upgrades ie the showers and kitchen, it was clean except for under the couch which appeared to have been forgotten for a time. We ended up buying beach towels(and left for future guests) because the ones provided were just bath towels. Overall it was a lovely place to call our home for 11 days

Perfect break for a family of four in this super clean condo in a beautiful, quiet location. We usually like to stay in hotels but we all agreed that this unit was so much better than a hotel. We loved the spaciousness of the unit, the proximity of the parking space, the ability to do laundry, and the large balcony with an amazing view of the sunset! We can't wait to return.

The Palms is always a great spot. Has everything you need for a Hawai’i vacation. You feel at home, comfortable and clean condo. All the beach supplies you need. We will be back! Thanks again

We enjoyed our stay at the condo very much. Host was super responsive & communicative with details for the stay, the condo is very well furnished (including beach chairs, boogie boards, snorkeling gear, kids toys, etc). The location is close to many food choices (5-10 minutes drive), Safeway close by. Excellent beaches are within 10-15 minutes reach. When we get another opportunity to come to Maui, this is the first place we will check. Thank you for making our vacation super comfortable.

Beautiful condo, great location, awesome pool and hot tub. Everything around there was clean and beautiful. The kitchen has all the cutlery and things you would need like a coffee machine, blender, strainers, pots and pans. The only downfall is that the glass doors to the patio were super hard to open and close, and the one didn't lock. They also only supplied 1 dishwasher pod for an 11 night stay, no laundry soap, only 3 rolls of toilet paper for 3 adults, no cleaning supplies, baggies or dish soap. So we did go and buy all those supplies for our stay and left all the extra there for the next guests. This was our first time using VRBO we usually already have all those things fully stocked for us.

This is a big 2 bedroom condo. Great kitchen, big rooms, awesome lania's, and every amenity you need! Great location minus the traffic noise in the morning. Owner was great to work with; communication excellent.

The condo is in a beautiful area. We found ourselves driving to the beaches as we were also out exploring, however you can walk to a beach. Easy walk to a grocery store and the very high-end Shops at Wailea which we enjoyed exploring. The pool area is nice, always found a chair, easy walk from condo. The furniture and accommodations are a bit dated but sufficed since we were gone exploring the beautiful island during the day. The kitchen is stocked with everything you need and the beds are comfy. Sunsets from the balcony are incredibly picturesque! We enjoyed our stay here very much and made wonderful family memories!

Beautiful place to stay. We had an issue with the door code the night we arrived. Even though it was very late we had prompt response from the manager to sort out the issue. Condo is clean and has everything you need. Great location. Close drive to many great beaches. Would stay again!

We really enjoyed the lanai. It has a shaded eating area & next to it a seating area that gets both sun & shade at different times of the day. Also has a view of the water. The unit was very clean and the kitchen had everything we needed. The location is fabulous - just a short walk down to the beach.

We had a great stay at this property in Wailea. It is very close to all the resorts, beaches and restaurants in Wailea and Kihei. The property manager was very responsive to all questions. They unit is very clean and functional with plenty of space for everyone. And the sunset and morning views from the Lanai are wonderful. We also enjoyed the pool and the hot tub later in the day. Excellent value right in the heart of everything!

The interior of the condo is extremely outdated. We had a problem with ants in our kitchen even though we emptied garbage daily and kept all food in fridge and counters wiped down. The beds were very uncomfortable hard to the point where we did not sleep good at all. The AC unit in primary bedroom did not work efficiently at all. It was extremely hot in our bedroom . The main room AC worked great but the bedroom AC unit was like non existent in cooling the room. Despite texting the property manager no one showed up to fix and check the AC like we were told they would.

we love the palms at Wailea. The unit was clean and quiet. The only thing missing was a view - because of its location close next to the road though the complex it had some hedges up for privacy.
