About this property

Oceanfront studio-Fully renovated! 016-552-7552-01

Picture falling asleep to the sound of the surf and waking to a view of the island of Molokai from the comfort of your king sized bed. The spacious lanai provides the perfect spot for a romantic dinner or a sunset cocktail. Unlike many Maui condos, our unit is fully air-conditioned, however you will find that the natural breezes keep it quite cool.

With a fully renovated kitchen and bath, our unit provides a modern, comfortable retreat after a long day of sightseeing or beachgoing. We have spared no expense to equip our unit with all of the amenities you will need for a relaxing vacation and stocked the kitchen with every possible gadget for that gourmet meal. The kitchen boasts new cabinets, granite counters and stainless appliances. The unit is decorated with the artwork of renowned photographer Peter Lik and numerous local artists. We have added a La-Z-Boy twin sleeper chair to add accommodations for three and additional seating. The spa-like bath was retiled in an ultramodern style and is worthy of a high end resort. A new mattress and pillow topper were added in 2024.

When you are not out enjoying Maui’s attractions, you will find free WiFi, a high-definition cable TV and DVD/blue ray player.

The popular Royal Kahana resort in West Maui is situated right on the ocean in the quiet neighborhood of Kahana, 10 minutes north of Lahaina. The complex has numerous amenities, including a heated pool, gym, tennis courts, and a full time concierge.

Cooler than Lahaina, and drier than Kapalua, Kahana provides a perfect base for exploring the island and easy access to town and to all of west Maui’s famous beaches. Within a few minutes walk you will find numerous restaurants and shops, with many others just a short drive away. The nearest full supermarket is within a 2 minute drive. Two days a week you will find fresh local produce, coffee and pastries at the nearby Napili farmers market.

Please note that the property charges $18/nt for parking, payable on arrival.

MOLD, ROACHES, NOT UPDATED

Let me start by saying I did get a good amount refunded by the owner of the condo. So that was helpful. Howeve, upon arrival I noticed mold in the shower at first (we arrived later in the day and were tired from travel) so we firstly go washed up and took a shower after a late dinner. The mold in the shower on the ceiling and upper walls was black mold. So that sparked my inspection of the rest of the space. The walls not only in the main bathroom had mold, the light fixture and the laundry room that was also attached had mold spores on the ceiling as well. I suppose bad ventilation. But, I messaged the owner and he acted as though this was the first he's heard. However, it was apparent that there was new paint that was painted over corners of the ceilings and upper walls as if this has been an issue and was being covered up. It's obvious, the older walls were a dingy white and the new paint painted over certain areas was a true new white. Outside the laundry room in the hallway there was a HUGE stain probably about 3 feet by 3 feet of black mold on the ceiling hallway. There was also roaches periodically around the condo. The furniture had dust CAKED on them and was apparently not clean. The floors were dirty, with dirt and tons of left over sand. The washer smelled terribly, so we avoided using it unless towels needed to be cleaned. Mid stay there was a pest control person who showed up unannounced and sprayed WHILE we were in the space getting ready. So awkward.

Maui weekend

It was a wonderful stay. Everything was as promised and there were even a few extra perks, binoculars to watch whales, a blender for drinks, even a tool to core a pineapple! Parking was always available and the view from the deck is spectacular. Loved it!

Royal Kahana stay

Pretty nice studio condo - comfortable king bed. Oceanview from balcony. Kitchen is okay - would be better if it had a dishwasher. The TV in the unit is too small, maybe 36 inch. Plenty of towels and beach towels. Ample parking but the daily 18 charge is too much for what's provided - garage not usable presently.Shower in the bathroom is great. Owner should provide soap, shampoo, conditioner, laundry detergent and dish detergent.

All the essentials for a comfortable stay

My partner and I were travelling to Maui fir a 6 day vacation. Simple condo by oceanfront that has all your essentials: king size bed with a comfortable mattress, fully stocked kitchen, cute balcony, and extras like beach chairs, umbrella, coolers for your daytrips/beach days.FYI, parking is $18 extra per day, and we saw at least one car have a with a wheel clamp, so pay your parking. Host was communicative, and quickly responded to our concerns. Overall, would recommend for a simple and practical trip to Maui.

Royal Kahana

Todd could not have been better to work with. The property was peaceful... about an hour drive to our activities but worth it to stay here. Saw 2 monk seals from our room not to mention the turtles. We missed whale season but we're told you can't help but see them when they are here.

Everything about this place made me feel like home!!! It was also very convenient to everything. The sunsets on the balcony were so beautiful. The studio was equipped with every single little thing you may need. The owner was so nice and very quick to respond to anything I asked. The complex workers were so sweet and polite. The pool was warm and relaxing. We went to Napili beach, it was a 6 minute drive. There was a little beach access in the complex too but we didn’t go in that one. I left some playing cards and Crayons, so that the next guests can create some memories, playing card games and also draw something cool about their experience. I wrote about my family’s adventure in their guest book, incase you need some pointers on your trip. I already miss being there, Hawaii was an experience I won’t ever forget! We Loved this area and studio! The washer and dryer in unit was a plus. 10 out of 10 recommend!!!! Till I see you again Hawaii!

Perfect Studio Great View!

We spent 9 days here and it was great! The studio condo has everything you need. Fully stocked kitchen. Very clean and remodeled. The King bed was so comfortable! We loved watching the whales from the Lanai. It’s great because it’s always shaded. Todd the owner gave us incredible information on exploring Maui. Brand new beach chairs were awesome for waking up early and heading to Slaughterhouse beach with coffee. We would definitely stay here again!

Great couple stay!

This Vrbo was great for just my husband and I! (Would not recommend for more than 1 couple just fyi). We had all the amenities we needed within the condo for cooking/living space on a vacation. Location was great for multiple beach access, grocery stores, restaurants, even a local food truck park! Everything was great! The building even held our bags on our departure date since we had 7 hours between checkout and flight, so we could go to the beach one last time and use the showers to clean up before heading to the airport. Recommend all around!

About the host

Hosted by Todd Christenson

Host profile image
We first visited Maui in 2011. The island is a perfect counterpoint to our hectic lives in DC! In 2014 we were delighted at the opportunity to own this fantastic oceanfront unit. Fully renovated, with a beautiful view of the Pacific Ocean and the island of Molokai, it was exactly what we were looking for. Since then, we've added some personal touches to make it our own.

Why they chose this property

Ocean views! That's what it's all about! Convenient as well to downtown Lahaina, surfing, snorkeling, or just enjoying the natural wonders of Maui!

What makes this property unique

Close to Lahaina and yet it's peaceful and the quiet is only broken by the sounds of the ocean.
