About this property

604 - Luxury Oceanfront - top floor unit with A/C and a spectacular ocean view!

*NEW* unit 604 now has air-conditioning! This upgrade will provide a more comfortable and cool environment for our guests!

This sixth (top) floor oceanfront condo at the Kihei Surfside Resort is located on the sought after ocean side of the elevator, and has a spectacular ocean view from the kitchen, living room, dining area and lanai. It is one of the larger, 1 bedroom, 1.5 bath units (680 sq ft). The view of the ocean and its abundant wildlife is absolutely breathtaking.

The unit has been tastefully remodeled to a very high standard. The kitchen and vanities are done in rich cherry colored cabinetry and gorgeous light brown granite countertops, which is consistent throughout the unit. The entire unit has porcelain flooring. All lighting in all rooms is controlled by dimmer switches.

The very attractive peninsula style kitchen is fully equipped with clean white appliances, including a refrigerator with ice maker, full size range, dishwasher, multi-function microwave oven, garbage disposer and a variety of small appliances including coffee maker, coffee grinder, toaster oven and blender. There is also a large selection of higher end pots and pans, baking pans, knife set, spice rack and ample matching dishes, glasses and cutlery.

The living room has a queen size pullout sofa-bed and a 48" flat screen LCD color TV and DVD player, and a multi speed ceiling fan. The unit has free, wireless high speed internet and free long distance calling to the United States and Canada. It is also equipped with a state of the art Oracode door lock, whereby each guest is issued a unique code which controls the door only during their stay. No keys!

The oceanfront dining area has a round rattan glass top table with 4 matching tropical chairs.

The large, private lanai has a square bistro table with two bar height chairs - a perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee or a romantic oceanfront dinner!

The bedroom has a high quality pillow top King sized bed, high quality bedding, flat screen TV, multi speed ceiling fan, Hawaiian style rattan furniture, closet, digital security safe and telephone.

The master bathroom has a full size, walk in shower, a beautiful cherry wood vanity with granite countertop. The matching half bath has been finished to the same high standard. Both bathrooms have Kohler toilets.

This condo is fully equipped with fresh linens and towels, hair dryer, iron/ironing board. All units have beach towels and a cooler. Umbrellas and snorkel gear are NOT supplied, but are often left behind in the units by other guests – no guarantees. The Kihei Surfside office loans out beach chairs free of charge during regular business hours - Monday to Saturday. Office is closed Sundays and Holidays. Coin laundry facilities are available on site.

This unit is an excellent choice for guests who are looking for a beautifully remodeled unit in a spectacular location in the building with a breathtaking view of the Pacific Ocean and the West Maui mountains.

For units that accommodate more than 2 guests (4 guests maximum), additional fees apply for additional guests at the rate of $15 per night for youths (17 and under) and $25 per night for adults (18 and over).

The Kihei Surfside Resort is located at 2936 S. Kihei Road, South Kihei at the entrance of beautiful Wailea. This is the desert part of Maui, where the sun shines more than any other part of the island. The Kihei Surfside Resort consists of an absolute oceanfront concrete building of 6 floors and 84 deluxe units with an elevator. The building underwent an extensive makeover during the summer of 2015, it was closed for six months. Each unit received new windows, doors and railings, and the building itself had a complete concrete restoration and paint. There is free parking on site. The resort is a twenty-five minute drive from the Kahului Airport (OGG). Rental cars are available at the airport or in Kihei town. There are also taxis available at the airport (about $50), a shuttle bus and public transportation.

Virtually all of the properties and resorts in Kihei are either located right on busy S. Kihei Rd., or if they are set back from the road - are across from the street from the ocean. One unique feature of the Kihei Surfside is that it is located at the quiet end of S. Kihei Road, AND is set back 300 feet from S. Kihei Road AND is located right on the ocean! Because it is hard to see from the road, many first time Surfside guests say that even though they have visited Kihei many times, they had never seen the resort!

Another unique feature of the property is that we have a 2 acre, immaculately kept oceanfront lawn area with dozens of loungers, with a heated swimming pool and deluxe barbecue facilities. In season, there are daily whale sightings from both the grounds and lanais. In fact, the Pacific Whale Foundation conducts their annual whale count from our property. The building is located at the north end of Keawakapu Beach, one of the most beautiful beaches on Maui (voted Maui's most romantic), where you can walk for miles past some of the most expensive oceanfront homes on the island and the luxurious hotels of Wailea.

Rosiesrentals.com has been in business since 2003. We run our business from Surrey, British Columbia, Canada. We personally own several units in the Kihei Surfside building, and also own units in Lake Country, British Columbia.
In Hawaii, we are not a property manager, but rather represent our own units as well as act as the online face and name for other friends and relatives within the Kihei Surfside Community who self-manage their properties and advertise them on the internet. Together, we have the largest selection of properties to rent at the Kihei Surfside, including many in the prime locations. We are registered in Hawaii as a Transient Accommodations Operator. We have an on island representative who is available in case any issues that arise with the units.

Kihei Surfside Excellent Building, Grounds, Pool, Condo
The unit is great. Management Company top notch on instructions and expectations. Unit was spotless, kitchen is very well equipped. Pool on property, beach access is adjacent to property. Lawn area on oceanside of property is putting green grass, great place to set up a lawn chair and take in the ocean views. If you want to grill, there are two on the site. Folks gather at sunset. Friendly people in other units. Sounds of the ocean continuously, and a constant ocean breeze. Kihei town just a short distance away. Foodland, about 2 miles away is better value, and selection, than Safeway or Wal-Mart...which is much farther away. Finally, a beach path, sometimes sand, sometimes trail or as it connects to Wailea is stone and pavers about 3 miles to Fairmont Hotel there.

Great Location with Gorgeous View
Very comfortable one bedroom with gorgeous ocean view. Location at the very south end of kihei - steps away from the north end of the long beach that extends into Wailea. Logistics were very straight forward and well-communicated. Property manager was helpful for my limited needs. Overall beautiful location with great to the beach.

Lovely beachside condo with ocean views
The condo has stunning ocean views. Hard to beat oceanfront property next door to a super pleasant beach (very family friendly beach with long shallow beach area). Great balcony! However the condo is not walking distance from any restaurants so you will likely want a car. Condo has everything you’d need (including beach chairs you can checkout from front desk). Only note is couch is due for a replacement or a deep clean and bed pillows could have been more comfortable)

This condo is exactly as it appears, even better! It is centrally located for walking into Kihei for food and also directly to the beach. We enjoyed the breathtaking sunset on the deck every evening! The pool is a wonderful option to the sea, and the grills are available for guests. We definitely recommend this stay and hope to return!

This is our second time to Surfside. The location is great, all rooms have a view of the ocean and the green park. My room was nicely attired. Many people sit in the park along the water to watch the sun set. Tiki torches are set around the pool and barbecue center. The pool area is serviced every morning. It’s very quite here

Working Remotely
Very easy check-in! The view from the lanai is fantastic and a prime location in Kihei! I decided to work remotely in Maui for a week and it was the best decision ever (despite meetings at 5 am). Being able to soak in the sun from the Surfside lawn or next door at Keawakapu beach is a great experience. But the best thing of all, are the amazing sunsets from the lanai, the lawn or the beach. It tops the list!

Perfect location.
Kihei Surfside was a great location, right next to a beautiful beach and walk along Wailea’s fancy hotel strip. Was a beautiful quiet setting with the lush green lawn for sunset and happy hour that can’t be beat!! South Kihei seemed to be best place to stay in terms of access to restaurants and stores but close to best beaches. Condo was stocked well. We grabbed beach chairs at office, which also had lawn games and putters. Ocean breeze was great, just a bit hot sleeping since it was August. Snorkeling is easy and right out front and other guests left some gear to use. Would recommend to anyone!!!

Absolutely stunning!
This building is terrific! The view cannot be matched! We have been to Maui many times but never seen a place like this. The views are breathtaking. You are right on the water and the sound of the waves is sublime. The trade winds blow through the suite and it is delightful. My only suggestion is the addition of air conditioning. While the trade winds keep things mostly cool there are times when it would be nice to have the air conditioning. This suite quite spacious with all that you need for a great holiday.

We want to go back!
Our family of three had a tremendous experience at this condo/property. We loved the location in south Kihei which was away from the hustle and bustle, but yet still close enough to all the restaurants, shopping, and grocery stores. The condo was EXACTLY as described with all of the needed items for our visit. The atmosphere at the condo with all of the visitors and "regulars" was fun too...all so kind and welcoming. The view was beautiful and we loved having our meals overlooking the ocean and lava flows. The lawn we also found amazing. We had several meals on the lawn including supper at sundown where we able to experience the nightly blowing of the conch shell at sundown. We normally stay near Makena, but we will be returning to this property and hopefully this condo on our next return trip.

This was an amazing spot! The condo was clean, the kitchen very well stocked for cooking, the location is truly amazing. I have a few small recommendations/suggestions for the owner. These things did not make the trip unpleasant at all, just would have been nice. 1) Another sheet and blanket for the sofa bed in the living room - it was chilly when we were there. 2) Some closet space for our luggage - the only closet that was open was full of gear and toys (which were great to have) but there were 2 other closets that were locked, so maybe one of those could be freed up?? and 3) A super absorbent bathmat by the shower as it let lots of water out due to no door or curtain. Overall, our family of 4 had a fabulous stay!!!

A Perch in Paradise!
The reviews have it right. Kihei Surfside Unit 604 is the perfect place for a Maui vacation. The unit is on the top floor, near the end of the building closest to the water and the views are stunning. There is nothing between you and the sea but a strip of beautiful lawn and the swimming pool. The location is amazing, since you are right at one end of the spectacular beaches of Wailea, but also have easy access to the shops and restaurants in Kihei. The unit is lovely, with a nice balcony, full kitchen, and 1 1/2 baths. (My wife and I found the half bath to be a particularly nice amenity.) All of the appliances and fixtures were updated a few years ago, and the unit is very clean. The owners obviously take tremendous pride in keeping it in great shape. For location, ambience and value, Unit 604 is unbeatable. We hope to return soon!!

Hidden Gem in Kihei
The unit was very clean, well stocked with toiletries, towels, cooking utensils and dishes. There were 2 boogie boards, fins, masks, and some so/so umbrellas in the unit while we were there. The complex is well maintained, gas grills clean, and the staff was friendly and helpful. Things were nice and quiet in the evenings and the trade winds and night time temps made up for the lack of AC. In our opinion, after having walked much of the beach in Kihei, it is the best view for the money. We really appreciated the green space - it was like sitting on the beach but without the sand. However, if you did want a sandy beach, one was available in either direction with minimal walking. Things to be aware of - the unit does not have a tub; the unit has a fold out couch but the mattress is a very tiny amount of batting with springs (needs updating); the coil burners are not level and the pans sometimes slide off. If they fix the burners and the replace the mattress on the roll out this would be a 5 Star! Larry Rosenberg and his assistant Lorena Foster were great to work with. Highly recommend them and this unit.

What makes this property unique

The property is located right at the north end of world famous Keawakapu Beach. It is one of the finest white sand beaches anywhere. It stretches for miles past some of the most expensive homes and hotels in all of Maui. Great for walking or running. We enjoy walking the beach each morning, and spending time some time there soaking up some morning sun and swimming/snorkeling in the warm ocean. When we want some quieter time, we spend time on the oceanfront lawn. The grass is like a putting green - many people reach down to feel it to see if it is real - it looks like carpet! It is a great place to soak up some sun, read a great book, watch the whales, dolphins and turtles or catch a nap! There is a reef right at our property that has the most amazing snorkeling we have seen anywhere. Unlike most other oceanfront properties in Kihei, the Surfside is perched right on the sea shore, set back several hundred feet from S. Kihei Road, so you hear the ocean, not the road noise. The complex has two high end stainless steel barbeques and picnic tables right at the ocean. Almost every night, we use the barbeque and eat our dinner at the oceanfront lit by tiki torches.
