Beautiful location

This property couldn’t have a better location. Close to Kihea and Wailea. The grass park in front of the condo offered breath taking views all day but sunset was especially special. The condo was well kept and provided all we needed. We loved it!

A dream come true

Our recent vacation to Maui was nothing short of incredible, and I can confidently say that this was one of the most memorable trips we’ve ever taken!! From the breathtaking landscapes of the condo to the warm hospitality, everything about this trip exceeded our expectations. While there was a minor hiccup with our door code at the beginning, the way the hosts went above and beyond to make our stay unforgettable and truly showcased the spirit of aloha that Maui is so well-known for. They were incredibly apologetic for the inconvenience and their willingness to make things right, combined with the stunning location and unforgettable experiences, made this one of the best vacations we’ve ever had.When it came time to leave, we were sad to say goodbye to both the beautiful island, location and the amazing hosts who had made our stay so memorable.If you ever come across this piece of heaven, I would highly recommend you book! We are already looking into booking again.Mahalo 3!

Nice location!

Great location! It was nice being close to Kehei but not in the middle of town. It was very quiet with a great beach and a nice pool. We were able to BBQ most dinners and we ate at the tables on the lawn. The condo was well stocked with beach chairs, boogie boards and beach towels. The lanai was roomy with great patio furniture. We would definitely stay here again!

Amazing Place & Host

We loved staying at Frankie John's condo at the Kihei Surfside. The condo has great views and is very nicely appointed. We loved making breakfast in the kitchen and listening to the sound of the ocean. It felt like a home and not just a vacation rental. Frankie John is a very considerate and gracious host. Coulnd't ask for better and we look forwarding to stay again!

Frankie is such a great host!!!

This was such a great property!! The view from the balcony was amazing! We even saw whales one morning from there. The beach was so close it wasn’t a big deal to send the kids back to the room to get something is they forgot it. Frankie was so responsive and friendly, it was so reassuring to know she was available, actually available, to assist with any requests!

Maui strong

So many locals thanked us for coming despite the news stories on the mainland. Without tourism in the unaffected areas the devastation would be worse. Many are fearful of the upcoming months that reservations were canceled. Please come to Maui, the people are depending on us. Mahalo

Great location, view, plus extras

We, our friend and teenage daughters returned to Maui for a week and needed a cozy VRBO to house us. This property was perfect! Great view of both the ocean and mountains. Beds were comfy. Had extras like beach chairs, cooler, boogie boards. Communication was excellent and the snorkeling was perfect right off the property. Cute beach and not too crowded. We would definitely stay again.

Great location, hot when it's hot

Nice unit, great view and terrific location. Wonderful snorkeling and ocean swimming close by. Kitchen is nicely set up. No air conditioning (as indicated by the owner), so the second bedroom is really stuffy at night when the days are hot. The mattress in there is soft foam, which makes you feel wrapped in the heat.

Paradise

Surfside really is the hidden gem of Kihei and this property, view, and amazing owners made our trip a perfect memory. The condo is beautifully furnished and has a fantastic view from the oversized patio/deck. The owners were extremely accommodating and kind and were quick to reply to any questions or needs that we had. It’s rare to find owners who sincerely care about comfort of your stay. Huge thanks to the owners!! We’re already looking at dates for next year.

About the host

Hosted by Frankie John

Host profile image
Aloha!
Owning a place in Maui has been a life long dream for us. We are a family of 4 (soon 5!): Jonas, Frankie, our two year old daughter Leonie and our dog Luna. We love nature and being active. We spend our days in Maui on the beach, hiking, mountain biking and rock climbing. We love going to the local markets and making dinners on the BBQ on the lawn.
Right now we spend about 2 months out of the year on Maui and share our Ohana with guests when we are not there. We hope you will love it just as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

We have been looking for a long time fo the perfect home for us in Maui and think we found it with this Ohana. The building is the closest building to the water in all of Maui. There is a large, pristine lawn for daily sunset gatherings , yoga, and lawn games.
You are located within a 2 min walk to the best beach in all of Maui Kamaole beach. This beach has been voted the best in the world many times.
There is beautiful snorkeling, boogie boarding and miles to walk on the sand ahead of you.

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with the views, the location, the Kihei Surfside community, the beach, the snorkeling, the walkability and the miles
