More information
The space

Our condo is DIRECT OCEANFRONT, BEACHFRONT!

You can't get any closer to the ocean than our condo! Maalaea village is a gem with its central location and its fantastic trade winds. They provide a cooling breeze that keeps the temperatures just right. Just in case the cross breeze in the unit isn't enough for you, we have a newly installed split A/C (as of February 2020) in the living room, downstairs bedroom and upstairs loft bedroom. There are ceiling fans in the master and loft bedroom and a floor fan in the second bedroom. Please note that the second bedroom upstairs does not have any windows. It also has low, slanted ceilings, making it best suited for a children's room.

From the lanai, gaze out and watch the sun rise over Haleakala. Watch green sea turtles bobbing up for air and rolling in the surf. In the winter months (Nov-April) you will have a front row seat to breaching whales.

Beautifully landscaped grounds with a heated pool. Slip into the pool and enjoy the ocean view while you relax in the Maui sun.

The kitchen has stainless steel appliances and is fully equipped with cooking utensils, pots, pans, blender and all of the other basic supplies to comfortably enjoy cooking and eating in. There is also a great BBQ area oceanfront so you can enjoy the view while you cook up some delicious food!

At the end of our cul-de-sac is Sugar Beach, 3-4 minute walk from the unit.

A 5 minute walk in the opposite direction takes you to Maalaea Harbor where you will find a small grocery store, deli, craft market, restaurants and the Maui Ocean Center (Maui’s #1 tourist attraction), the Pacific Whale Foundation, miniature golf, shopping and most of the ocean activities available on Maui (sunset dinner cruises, deep sea fishing, snorkeling tours & whale watching).

Centrally located, Maalaea is a place of stay that makes getting anywhere on the island easy. You will be 15 minutes from the airport; a 5 minute drive south to Kihei and a bit further, the resorts of Wailea; and 20 minutes to Lahaina. You couldn’t be in a better location to explore all Maui has to offer.

Central Location

This rental is great if you are looking for a central location to explore multiple areas of the island but would like to come back to a quiet condo. The view from the lanai is fantastic and we enjoyed watching the turtles. If you are traveling soon, please note that the elevator listed under accessibility is currently being replaced and you will need to use the stairs to get to the top floor.

Great view of the water !!

We needed three bedrooms and this was a good place for the price we paid. Halls & stairs could use more lighting and we couldn't find an operating manual. TV (especially) and the coffee pot were trial & error, but overall, the unit was clean and we liked being able to walk to the Ocean Center, Maalaea Harbor stores, and the beach.

Great times!

This place was great! If it lacks anything it might be the size but for 4 of us it was comfortable. Beds were all comfortable and kitchen had everything we needed. The view is extraordinary, and we would see 10-15 turtles every day from about noon to sunset. We were within walking distance to where all the boat tours seem to come out of, a couple good restaurants and the aquarium as well. The host was fantastic as well and the check in process is super easy. This was a fun place to stay for sure, so enjoy Maui.

Vacation Stay

The condo was nice but hadn’t been cleaned upon arrival. They were able to get a cleaning crew out there but after a long flight it was definitely an inconvenience. Other than that our stay was great. The view was amazing for watching the turtles and the Monk seal that lays out during the day.

Location

First time to Maui and this was a great central location as we ventured out each day, plus it was walking distance to the harbor where we did a couple of tours. View from the balcony was exactly what I wanted for our stay on the island and having 3 separate sleeping spaces worked well for our family.

Great location

This was our family’s first trip to Maui, and we were very happy overall with our stay here. The condo is very centrally located to whatever direction we wanted to go on the island making our activities easy to access. The condo itself is very comfortable and has a terrific view ( we loved sitting on the lanai watching the sea turtles!). The host was very communicative ahead of our trip and when we checked in. The only minor things that could have been improved was that one of the provided beach chairs was broken. Additionally, there was no cooler provided for beach trips. Overall, we were very happy with our stay!

Outstanding stay!

Our family of 4 had an outstanding stay at this condo. The three bedrooms allowed my husband and I as well as each of our sons (19 and 22) to have our own space but also provided areas to hang out together. The kitchen is small but very well equipped -- and the outdoor grill on the property was a nice bonus. The road behind the building dead ends at a park with a nice beach for morning walks. The location was perfect for exploring the island as it's centrally located on the west side near lots of resorts and beaches and also an easy drive to Paia and the road to Hana for a completely different experience. Point Break Pizza in the shopping area at Maalaea Harbor is exceptionally good if you don't feel like cooking and do not sleep on Hula Cookies & Ice Cream in the same area. We were able to watch sea turtles, tons of surfers and a harbor seal from our balcony. We also really appreciated the beach and snorkel equipment provided. Melanie and Neil were communicative and responsive. Highly recommend!

Great home base

The condo was a great home base for our multi generational group of 6. Melanie was very responsive to our questions and gave very clear and simple checkin/checkout directions. The view was amazing, listening to the waves at night was pleasant and exploring the little beach was fun for the kids. Location wise it was very easy to get most places in the island. Everything was 15-25 minutes away. There was however limited restaurants and shops nearby. We did find a great local pizza place at the harbor shopping center.

Breathtaking and Relaxing

It was a real treat to stay at this property. It is well appointed, I was excited to see they even had an Instant Pot for my morning oatmeal! Everything was as it was stated in the description. We loved seeing the turtles on the beach, and watching the whales from the lenai. Everything worked and we never had to use the A/C once. It was not only a breathtaking view it was a relaxing place to stay! We hope to stay there in the future.

Great location for Maui getaway

Really enjoyed our stay at the condo. Maelaea is a perfect location for being close to the beach, marina and some restaurants/shops without the busyness of Kihei. Condo was clean and perfect for our needs. We traveled with our two kids (14 & 9) and they each had a room. Once we figured out how to get the tradewinds flowing through the condo, it was always the perfect temperature with no need for AC. Loved having the beach chairs and towels for our daily visits to beaches. The highlight was the patio overlooking the ocean. We watched whales and turtles every morning and night right from the patio. Overall a great experience and would book again.

Cute Place - Enjoyed Our Stay Very Much!

We enjoyed this condo very much. Our first night there we saw whales, sea turtles and even a shark. The constant sighting of whales thrilled us the most. A couple of the bedrooms were a little interesting as one is a loft bedroom which overlooks the living room and there’s zero privacy, and another bedroom has an angled ceiling, perfect for bonking heads on. Also it has no window. Where I come from it’s not up to fire code for qualifying for a bedroom, but perhaps codes are different here in Maui. But thought it was worth mentioning if you plan to have kids or children staying in that room. But you can tell a lot of care has been taken in decorating and making it feel like a home. It was very clean. The kitchen was well stocked, the location is amazing and the view is incredible. The owners were lovely to work with. We would most definitely stay here again.

There are many places to stay along this stretch of beach, but this is the best. Great view, pool, jacuzzi,location and even turtles! We had a group of turtles that visited us almost everyday, it was great to see them bobbing in the surf or just sunning on the beach.

Loved our stay! Excellent communication with the host (a big plus). Home as described with outstanding views (and good wifi). Loved watching the sun rise and set, and seeing the whales in the distance and the turtles that rested on shore each night. The home was a great space for my family of 4 adults. Easy walking distance to the harbor and the beach. The best thing was the location. Quiet, low traffic area with easy access to the entire island. Would definitely stay here again and will recommend to friends traveling to Maui. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

About the host

Hosted by Melanie Feliciano

Host profile image
We are a family of 5 from the San Francisco Bay Area. My husband and I are in the biotech and optometry field, respectively. Our oldest daughter is a recent graduate from UC Berkeley and is in her first year of medical school. Our younger twin daughters are recent graduates of UC Davis. We love to spend our summers vacationing and reconnecting on Maui. When we think of a relaxing vacation, we think of Hawaii. We enjoy the beaches, the people and the food, especially the shaved ice!

Why they chose this property

We purchased a place at Maalaea Banyans because we knew we wanted an oceanfront property. We wanted the true essence of Hawaii in our backyard and now we have the beach, the surf and oftentimes the whales and turtles in plain sight.

What makes this property unique

Besides the gorgeous view from the living room, we love that this property is roomy enough for our family of 5. We enjoy the central location of the place, close enough to the airport, to Kihei and Wailea to the south, and Lahaina to the north. We also get the cooling trade winds, adding a lovely breeze throughout the property.
