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.

Wailea Ekolu consistently wins guests over with its setting: sweeping ocean-and-golf-course views, spectacular sunsets, and winter whale watching right from spacious lanais. The vibe is quiet and tropical across beautifully landscaped grounds with two low-key pools, yet you’re close to it all—Akamai Coffee, Monkeypod, the Shops at Wailea, tennis and golf. Beaches are an easy 5–10 minute drive or roughly a 15–20 minute walk downhill (expect an uphill return), making this a tranquil, good-value alternative to the beachfront resorts.

Condos are generally roomy and well outfitted for families and longer stays: full kitchens (many updated), in‑unit washer/dryers, multiple bathrooms, and comfortable bedding. Many units stock beach gear—chairs, umbrellas, coolers and towels—and guests frequently praise cleanliness, tasteful decor, and thoughtful touches. Hosts and managers are widely noted as responsive when small issues pop up, and BBQ areas and the quiet pools are convenient. Most days start with coffee on the lanai and end with sunset views.

Common trade-offs: this isn’t beachfront, and some find the walk back from the shore hilly, so many guests drive and report easy beach parking. Noise varies by location—occasional road, delivery, or landscaping noise in some buildings, and footfall if you’re below another unit—though nights are typically peaceful. Several condos use wall/split A/C that can be loud or lag during late‑day heat, and supplies/toiletries are often “starter only.” Because units are individually owned, outfitting and updates differ, and a few guests mention minor maintenance, deep‑cleaning needs, or tropical ants; management is generally quick to respond. If those nuances suit your travel style, Wailea Ekolu delivers relaxed, view‑filled Wailea living at a fraction of resort rates.

We’ve stayed in better units with quality bedding, mattress cover, sheets, comforters. Also one ply toilet paper and paper towels that just fell apart, I don’t know I think I expected a little better. My daughters stayed in a condo in Kihei spent half the price and their place was stocked with everything. You should probably replace your folding beach chairs we went and rented our own. The straps are broken, zippers don’t close and your beach towels, pretty much worthless.. I’ll be done now.

Very best communication, great view, well equipped with essential utensils, located near shops, restaurants, etc. Does have some stairs so may be more difficult for mobility impaired. Could use upgraded sofa, but other than that condo is very accommodating.

This is a great property--beautiful 180 degree views. The unit is spacious, well laid out, and well furnished. As two couples vacationing together, the two en suite bedrooms off either side of the entry were a perfect layout. Highly recommend!

Everything was perfect. The kitchen was well stocked with barely used pots/utensils/etc. We had plenty of towels, toiletries and laundry soap to last us the whole two weeks. The unit itself was spotless and well maintained. The couch in the living room was clean and looked very new. Beds were comfortable also. Great stay!

Perfect location. It was a short drive to the beach and then return in the afternoon for lunch and a swim in the pool. Very well equipped rental with all the items needed for a day at the beach. Well equipped kitchen with all the items needed to cook like I was at home. Gas grill a short walk away from the unit added to a great dinner.

Great condo. Smoke alarm went off in the middle of the night due to low battery. Some sugar ant issues, but the raid seemed to work. Found out that you have to point the ac control right at the wall unit for it to work. Didn’t ever find the beach umbrella. The beach chairs were great. Nice view, enjoyed the lanai. Great beaches close by. Would stay here again.

Omg. The most amazing view every single morning. Facing west so the sunsets are to die for. The pictures don’t do it justice. Both bathrooms are full size which is so nice traveling with two. The location is perfect. I highly recommend this location.

Such a great property to stay it! First, the location is awesome -- one can easily walk to numerous restaurants and the Shops at Wailea. We have stayed in other properties within this townhouse complex and this has been the nicest. Super clean, nicely appointed, tons of beach stuff (chairs, coolers, toys, towels, etc.), comfortable furnishings. The patio is a great spot for cocktails to watch the sunset over the ocean. We had a minor problem with a tv remote control device and it was promptly resolved. We would certainly stay here again.

Wonderful townhouse and location! The townhouse is on a hill which provides an incredible view sitting on the lanai looking out over the ocean, especially at sunset. We brought binoculars and could see whales from the lanai. The townhouse was very clean and well stocked with everything from quality dishes and utensils, plenty of linens including numerous bath towels and beach towels, extra sheets, pillows and outdoor gear such as swim noodles and beach chairs and even laundry detergent, soap, and shower products. Master bath is very spacious with a nice large shower. Outdoor pool was basic, but heated and quiet with plenty of chairs. Property grounds were well maintained and parking spaces are close to the townhouse. Property and entire area always felt safe to walk around day and night. Just down the hill, an easy walk away is a small shopping area that includes a coffee shop and multiple open-air eateries. Further down the hill is a large shopping area with a bit of everything from high end stores and restaurants to casual bar and grill, souvenir stores, ice cream shop, and markets to buy basic groceries and toiletries. Beach was walkable for us from the townhouse, it would be a more challenging trek with little kids and and their gear in tow. Townhouse location was an easy drive from the airport and all other activities we did. Communication was prompt and helpful. Highly recommend.

This is the first time I have left a negative review, which is sad because this is a great property/location that is poorly managed. My review summarizes two emails I sent management that were ignored. Such a frustrating experience for very expensive rental.Primary issue: ants in primary bathroom. After not getting a response to my first email, I called management who sounded surprised despite there being ant bait on the counter. She sent someone out, who sprayed the bathroom (just a few feet from where our infant's travel bed was). The bug spray smelled so bad we had to sleep in the kid's room the next 2 nights. There were only 5 bath towels, which seems unreasonable for a 2 bedroom condo, and the one my husband used on the first day has greenish black stains on it. All towels smell musty, and washing machine has mildew/mold. We only found 3 beach towels rolled up by the front door, and the first one I pulled out to use was wet (and musty). When we tried to use the dishwasher for the first time, we found it completely full of wet dishes. They smelled musty, so we had to re-wash, dry, and put away someone else’s dishes. The "wecome" email says in all caps WE ARE NOT A HOTEL. It's one thing to only offer "starter supplies" but we didn't have even a full roll of paper towels or a single kitchen sized trash bag when we arrived. I would stay here again if it were under new management because the views and location were ideal.

Great location, fully stocked. One thing I disliked was polyester blend sheets - so itchy. Asked to replace but management company said that’s all they had. Personal preference of course but when you rent a luxury condo, you want better linens, right? Ended up buying a cotton set locally.
