Great Location, Good Condo, but confirm the AC setup is ok first
The condo was very clean and nice. For some reason the owner had the ac unit restricted so we could not control the temp or fan speed. Prop Mgmt company was great and brought in a portable ac unit once they saw the setup. Common area out back door is close and small so you'll have people from the pool, lounge chairs, grilling, etc. in the backyard/ocean view area out your door. Still a great location so just an fyi so you can decide if that's an issue for you. Easy beach access at the park next door.

Great view
The beach is right on the patio so that was great. Like other reviews have mentioned, this is the only condo with easy access so most people lounge close to your patio. There was broken glass in the condo when we checked in and was communicated by email and msg but we just got automated response. The shower needs a door. A small vacuum would have helped us clean up better.

Maui stay
We stayed here in early April, and didn't have any issues with people gathering in front of our place or loud kids in the pool. Beach access is pretty easy and we loved morning walks with the sunrise. When we were there the place was pretty quiet and the beach felt very private/not crowded at all. Cons: -The AC wasn't the strongest and would turn off every 4 hrs. -We did see a few cockroaches around the complex

It was a beautiful oceanfront condo. Condos were cramped. "Common area" was literally directly in front of our condo. People put their tents and lounge chairs and sun bathed blocking our view. It was unbelievable. Severable parties happened at night although everyone was quiet by 9. I felt badly for others because it was literally the only place they coukd gather. The pool also was also right out in front only a few feet away. The upside was you could walk right onto the beach to get away. That part was beautiful. Turtles and whales could be seen from yoir beach and you could swim in the ocean and snorkel nearby.

Good value
Pros: Steps from the sea wall for great whale watching from the small lanai. Friendly community of guests mingle at the convenient grilling area. Located near the aquarium and several restaurants, or an easy drive to Kehei. Comfortable bed with lots of pillows (but we could have used an extra blanket or comforter). Beach chairs, cooler and beach towels appreciated . Kitchen seemed well stocked, but we didn’t cook so can’t really comment on the cookware or appliances. Unit was clean. Cons: As others have noted, the unit is near the small pool and area where guests lounge. We could hear loud conversations from sunbathers and kids screaming in the pool. Beach not easily accessible for everyone. The tv/cable was a bit challenging. Overall, this was a good value and we would recommend if you’re looking for a place away from the crowds.

Perfect position
Maalaea is a small harbour and self catering apartments centre. It’s well away from the crowds and commercial centres. Our unit the best positioned as on ground floor with the ocean edge no more than 10 paces in front. Unobstructed view of the water and a nice sheltered patio to gaze out to watch for whales breaching. Take binoculars with you. Not much choice in local restaurants. Need a car to get around. Main centres for shops 15-25 mins drive away depending on which direction. But Maalaea is central positioned for exploring in all directions so great base for exploring Maui. Is a 3 storey building and only 4 X 3 apartments look seawards. Definitely want this view. Access to the beach is direct in front and then can walk for several miles if you wish. Almost all the other condo blocks do not have direct access to the beach as the sea comes right up to a rocky wall. These visitors would have to walk a long way up the road to access the beach. From our unit you are on the beach in under a minute!

Perfect low key spot
This was a great low key location if your looking to avoid all the busy and loud tourist traps, but close enough you can visit them. The condo was nice, looked to be recently modernized and clean. The property has a small pool, the sandy beach start right in front and goes all the way to Kihei. Each morning and evening we say watching the ocean and sky (and light from Kihei. I did a little snorkeling right in front when calm, the kids did some body boarding when there was waves. Saw turtles out front often. For my family we were walking distance to the harbor for a snorkeling trip and a dinner cruise. Also Luxe Latte was an awesome little coffee shop we visited daily. This was the first place we stayed (3 in this trip), but I wish it was the last location as it was so calm and would have been a great way to slow down and enjoy Maui before heading home

Nice place
My husband, 3 year old and I stayed here for 9 nights. Great little place, very clean. It was so nice being in a ground unit and having the ability to walk right out to the pool and beach. It was also wonderful to listen to the waves crashing on shore while falling asleep at night. It is a bit small in the area where people lay out and relax on the loungers. One day we had a bunch of people right in front of our patio sunning themselves which was a little weird but not a huge deal. The only thing we weren't impressed by was the beach. Don't get me wrong it is nice for sure, but the waves were a bit much for our toddler to be able to run out into the water and play and there were very large rocks not too far out. My husband went and bought water shoes after cutting himself on a rock. But we did see quite a few turtles! We ended up spending quite a few days driving to other more mellow beaches with no waves for our toddler but if it would have been just us, it wouldn't have been an issue. Overall, a great condo and great central location especially if you want to get in the car and explore around the entire island.

Excellent value for steps from the water
We stayed on A level and had a sliding door right onto a small grass lawn with lounge chairs. Wave noise was so loud we had to close the windows at night!! That’s how close we were to the water. Centrally located. This property is on the dry side so if you are looking for tropical smells and showers try the other side of the island.

Clean and Comfortable Condo
The condo was great and very clean. It had adequate supplies for our nearly 2 week stay. The grounds and pool were kept very clean. As Sr. Citizens, we found the surf a little too rough for us. So we used the pool more often. We had a wonderful stay on this property.

Everything we wanted
We loved staying at this property. We arrived early before checkin and the mgmt company was very responsive in communicating between us and the cleaning person so we could enter the unit a little ahead of schedule. Amenities were as described w/ a full kitchen and beach supplies. With the pool and beach so close by, there was nothing left to desire. My only tip is rental car is a must at this location as Hono Kai is at the very end of the street in Maalaea and we found it difficult to use public transport/Uber doesn’t service the area/Lyfts are overbooked. I would be so happy to return. Miss the beach already.

Condo was clean and kitchen had everything we needed. We did not like the timer on the air conditioner, getting up in the middle of the night sweating, needing to get up and push the button twice a night was annoying. Also, the motion light going on and off all night on the leni was not pleasant.

Great Escape
This was such a perfect place to stay and enjoy our part of our vacation. It was the second place we stayed in Maui. It had a comfortable bed, great ambiance and accommodations, perfect location to everything. It was perfect to be able to make breakfast and sit out on the patio and watch the whales or dinner and the sunset. It was so close to any direction you wanted to explore and still be able to come home and have a quiet evening or enjoy a nice conversation with others staying here as well. We'll definitely try to book this location again and recommend it to others.

Perfect Paradise
This property has everything one needs to enjoy their stay in Maui. It is located at the end of a three mile beach. There is good snorkeling right in front and good whale watching too. Several good restaurants are minutes away. It might be a bit small for more than two people but for us it was absolutely perfect.
