Love to Maui
My husband and I were supposed to visit Maui and stay at this VRBO in September 2023, but when the Lahaina fire happened, we had to reschedule for 2024. We were so happy to be back on the island. The condo was wonderful, and we loved the location. Unfortunately we had to end our vacation early due to a family emergency back home, but we hope to be back again soon.

Amazing
This was our second stay in 106 they have done a great job updating with AC and a few other things we noticed during this stay! Everyone around is nice and helpful. If you stay in 106 and have young kids just know one of the tenants next door if your at the pool you might see him looking at you with binoculars as a dad yes we had words ! He explained that he is losing his eye sight and locals come around and sneak in the pool not a good excuse but like I said we had words and I explained to him to be in my shoes with two young girls and some old guy staring at them with binoculars!! Other than that a few other tents are supper overly nice and need to understand that if someone says they don’t want to blow the shells at sunset to leave it and move on, for the married couple you don’t own the property so stop acting like you make the rules for everyone I observed him yell at a young kid for skateboarding was the kid being annoying nope is their signs posted Nope then after he was done yelling at the kid he told the kid he is an owner that may be true for 1 unit but that’s all and still don’t yell a people kids observe and locate a parent ! And talk to them. The groundskeeper was the nicest always working. This is a perfect place to relax and soak it all in.

My partner and I visited for 10 days mid/late April 2024 and had a great time. The location is perfect and within walking distance from many amenities. The property is very clean and had amazing views, with sea turtles stopping by daily. We'd definitely stay here again if making our way back to Maui.

A perfect condo
We stayed for a week, this unit was nicely renovated kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, furnishing. The condo has tiles instead of carpet and that is a big plus for us. Being able to sit and watch the waves and have your coffee first thing in the morning was dreamy. We will be back.

Whales each day, honu too!
This condo's ground-floor location allows us to sit a few feet from the water's edge in the morning shade and afternoon sun, watching for whales and often seeing turtles right below us. The unit is comfortably furnished and well equipped for us (two, elderly adventurers) - assistance with water temp was prompt and lighting over the stovetop would help. The non-smoking policy and congenial neighbors are a plus, as are nearby shops, including Snorkel Bobs, coffee cafe, Farmers Market store and tasty takeout. A quaint church and two beach parks are a short walk away; Napili Kai and the Kapalua Coastal Trail are a short drive north. We felt relaxed and safe our entire stay and will strongly consider returning again to Makani Sands.

our week
the unit was just as advertised and we really enjoyed our stay. it could use a new iron (current one has burnt stuff on it that melts off onto anything it touches) and we never could find a basic broom (which would have been helpful w/ the sand on the floor). the deck furniture is pretty tattered and just a matter of time before the chairs fail and somebody ends up on the floor. but overall we were very happy with the place and would consider it again for future trips

A dream come true!
We absolutely loved unit 106! We were right on the water! I loved waking up to drinking coffee on the porch, watching the sunrise colors in the clouds and islands, and watching whales! The condo had air conditioning and all the comforts of home. My teenagers walked to nearby coffeeshops and stores every day. Snorkeling and swimming with turtles was amazing right outside the condo. I met several couples who have been returning to this small condo community for over 10 years. The BBQ grills were perfect for making dinner at the condo and watching the most spectacular Maui sunsets every night! I celebrated my birthday by eating on the back porch watching a gorgeous sunset! A dream come true! Thank you for opening your home to my family. ❤️

Nice, comfortable place
Good location and enjoyed being right on the water and watching continuous whale show from the deck. Great views of Molokai and Lanai and perfect place for happy hour sunsets. Very convenient to nearby restaurants, take-out, grocery stores and food truck park. Not very windy during our stay so we could get into water in front of condo. Swimming pool is between units and road - basic, shaded in afternoon. Good kitchen amenities.

Everything we needed ( almost) , Nothing we didn’t .
Bed was comfy, kitchen was well stocked, but the lanai was the highlight. Just it 15 ft to the water. There is no beach , but just enough sand to enter the ocean to swim or snorkel. Enjoyed sitting on the wall watching whales, a daily turtle visitor and a beautiful sunset Tiki torches were lit each night and we were surrounded by hibiscus plants which was another advantage to the ground floor unit. My one issue is in the pictures and list of items was “beach chairs, “ but it didn’t ruin our trip as you can rent them from Boss Frogs (a 2 minutes walk from the condo) and the cost is approx $30/week. We really loved staying here and enjoyed the condo location and the A/C! ( many units do not have a/c)

Fantastic ocean views and sunsets
Unit is very updated and clean. The building is older. Location is great. Short walk or drive to take out and supermarket. Only disappointment is that the “beach” is almost gone. Very little sand left to walk. Upside is that it is shallow and reefs are quite visible, which means you have a high probability of seeing sea turtles roaming around.

Waterfront Family Vacation
The view was exactly what we were looking for!!! Although a little nerve racking having a toddler be so close to the ledge that was roughly 15 feet down to the crashing water. Nonetheless, we enjoyed opening the patio door to listen to the waves crash and watch the sunsets. Our 3 year old loved running on the grass while we sat drinking mai tais. The complex is much older (probably built in the 70s) but the grounds were nicely maintained and you could see that they were making improvements to the building. The pool and pool deck were clean and although not fancy like some of the resort pools you see, still very enjoyable. The condo itself was nice and stocked with everything you could possibly need…probably too much really. The king bed was comfortable and the shower was nice. We did find it a bit cluttered, though. It could use a deep clean and some updates to the oversized furniture. Having two small children with us, we appreciated the games, books and kid tableware. But it would have been more comfortable if there was a bit more maneuvering space and not so many pieces of furniture. The location is very close to a public beach/park which was perfect for the little ones to enjoy the beach/water. The beach access from the condo wasn’t ever used because the water was always too high. The location is also walking distance to some yummy restaurants like the fish market and miss arepas. Overall, we had a great time!

Great location, within walking distance of coffee and farmers market and short drive to restaurants, grocery store, and even an awesome food truck park! Condo had all basic necessities (minus any pantry items like cooking oil), but onsite property manager was having trouble reaching the owner about spraying for bugs as she received multiple complaints. We did see a few cockroaches. Amazing views! The whale watching was spectacular right from the back door, binoculars provided 😊 we even made friends with curious birds. Despite the pictures, there is no beach access from the room, but you can get in the water. Small pool, but nice and warm. We had a great trip overall.
