We stayed in the condo for 8 days in August, and it was the best experience! I don't think I'll ever stay in a hotel again after staying in this condo! Loved, loved, loved it!! The owner was such a pleasure to deal with, and the condo was just beautiful! It was nicely decorated, and you get the best ocean view from your lanai! Very clean, has everything you need in it (even coffee and spices!) A+ + + + + + + + Highly recommended!

Just wanted to say we had a wonderful time. The condo was great. We loved the location and we got very used to opening up the blinds every morning to that view!

My wife and I celebrated 20 yrs. staying at unit # 310 in May. The condo exceeded our expectations. First off, it was spotless. New bed, queen w/ 4 posts. Like sleeping on a cloud. Very well equipped kitchen, everything works fine. The only negative, the spices in the rack didn't like the humidity. Well lit double sink bathroom w/ plenty of mirror. Living room and bedroom each had a new tv. The view from both bedroom and living room was spectacular, provided you like the ocean, palms and mountains. The bamboo and wicker furnishings throughout the condo remind latitude. Lanai furniture included 2 wrought iron chairs and table and a wicker lounge chair. Ahh on the lanai with a kona, tasting the pacific breeze while being held spell bound by the west Maui mountains. The staff was friendly and the condo owner was very accommodating and a pleasure to deal with. The laundry room was literally 7 steps away from the front door... across the walkway... no, you can't hear anything. The pool looked nice & clean and the bbq area was clean. Good central location.

We stayed # 310 at the Kauhale Makai in September. What a fabulous room! Everything was perfect! The condo is sparkling from top to bottom. It has 2 flat screen tv's , beautiful kitchen, great balcony. The bathroom has a huge double sink and the bed was a four poster bed with a pillow top mattress. The only drawback was that the room did not have a washer/dryer but each floor has a nice laundry room and the room for our floor is located directly outside #310.

'Excellent! Just wanted to let you know that your condo was great! The new bed was like sleeping on a cloud. I want to write a great review on #310 for travel advisor.'

'Loved your condo! We had a great time. The view was awesome. We went to our next destination in Lahiana and did not like it. We even came to your on island manager to see if we could stay at your condo for the remaining time, but it was booked! We were Bummed. But next time, we will stay at your place the whole time. The stay was perfect. Thanks.'

'We had a wonderful time at your condo in Kihei! It was furnished beautifully in the island style. It's so well equipped with everything we could need. The balcony was one of our favorite hangouts as we started our days with Kona coffee and breakfast and enjoyed the breathtaking views (which included humpback whales at times) and at night we would enjoy cocktails and the sparkling lights across the water. Thank you for being such gracious hosts and sharing your little piece of paradise with us.'

Close to all in Kihei
We normally stay in Kaanapali, but enjoyed our stay here in Kihei, it so much closer to everything you want to see, like the road to Hana, winery, Haleakalā, etc. The parking is free! But you need to get a badge to put in the window, which you get from the other building. The unit has a K-cup coffee maker as well as the old school filter. Great unit for a couple I would say, 4 adults would be a little tight, but two extra kiddos should be fine. Has an issue with Vrbo not sending me any info, and two days before the trip I received info finally from the owner. There's a cooler and lawn chairs, and 3 towels, so bring your own if you are not washing, and the kitchen is well stocked, including spices for steaks, but no baking tray, but use a pan instead! We got chicken pot pies from the Maui pie shop down the street and needed to bake them. The beach is about 50-yards away, you walk over a grassy preserve and over dunes, and the sun sets from there, which you can see from the balcony as well. A/C only works when the patio door is closed, like a hotel, and there are a lot of notes posted throughout the condo that made me laugh, most of which are common sense issues, but I guess the owner had issues in the past. Overall, I enjoyed my stay and would recommend for a couple.

Loved it!
We loved this condo! It had well equipped kitchen, the furniture was comfortable and the lanai view was wonderful. I love how these condos are set up so that every lanai is private. There is a very strong wind that blows for several hours in the afternoon so be careful when you open the front door. The washer and dryer are not in the condo but are right across the hall from the front of the condo. We had no complaints and really enjoyed our time here.

Stayed with family for 4 nights. It is a great location and condo was good. I wish the owner posts better photos on the listing. The listing doesn't do justice to the condo. Nice set of kitchen utensils, lots of towels, patio was the highlight. Parking was no issue and getting to beach was just few feet away. Great experience and recommend for others.

Great Property
Great, however, as of our visit, Please ensure that you arrive at the office BEFORE they close so that they can easily direct you to the unit. It turns out the entrance to the unit goes between 2 units and is UNMARKED so that you feel like you are intruding into a units 'space'. ONCE we called security, since we had arrived after hours, we found it.

It was ok
The condo is nice enough and accurately represented. Unfortunately, we had some problems during our stay: - upon landing on Maui, I had messages waiting for me from the owner. She stated that the previous visitors had noticed a problem with the bathroom sinks being clogged. As they hadn’t gotten the problem resolved, the owner asked us not to use the sinks. This resulted in us walking across the condo to use the kitchen sink to wash our hands after using the bathroom… odd and inconvenient. - on our second day (still no bathroom sinks), the toilet wouldn’t stop running water. Jiggle the handle- nothing; lift the tank lid to adjust the seal- nothing. We finally had to turn the water off to the toilet. I immediately contacted the owner, who reached out to plumbers… who couldn’t come until the next day. We got to manually flush the toilet until then. (Google it— you basically have to fill the bowl with enough water all at once to get it to empty. Turns out that 6 pots of water isn’t enough because they’re not filling the bowl fast enough.) - finally the toilet was fixed, and I understand this was out of the owner’s control. What wasn’t out of their control, though, was the lack of extra toilet paper and lack of Kleenex. Luckily, an ABC Store is fairly close by. (I messaged the owner about the tp, and two days later still haven’t heard back.) I guess I have high expectations of a condo rental: I expect working sinks and toilets (the plumbers said they had to replace every part in the tank), and enough toilet paper and Kleenex to make it a week. This condo is nice- it’s in a convenient location and the terrace looks out at the water. Idk if I’d stay here again, though.

Stay at Kihei
We enjoyed 6 nights in Kihei. It was a great location for access to the airport and all of the destinations on Maui. The condo overlooks the water, a large lawn and part of the parking lot. So nice to have this access to the beach! We were able to sleep with the Living Room and Patio doors open, also very nice. The pool was pleasant, depending on how many other guests were also at the pool. We truly looked forward to our time on the balcony, but were frustrated with the oversized furniture and broken bedroom screen door. The host is very responsive.

Beautiful condo on the shores of Kihei
We had a wonderful week relaxing in this condo! We arrived at night so had a little difficulty figuring out how to get to the elevator but eventually figured it out. Once inside it was very nicely decorated and the bed was extremely comfortable. Along with our food shopping we did need to purchase some spices and paper products. The beach is a pleasant walk across the large grass lawn. The beach itself is quite rocky but with a pair of water shoes at low tide you can walk very far out. Not much in the way of snorkeling. For those that like to sit on the beach it was a little disappointing that there were no beach/sand chairs or an umbrella to use. We did enjoy our stay and would recommend this property to anyone interested.

Very nice once construction is complete
The owners have put a lot of effort into making everything very comfortable and well equipped. We hate that our ratings aren't higher but the construction taking place was noisy and so was the neighborhood, as well. What would normally be a beautiful ocean view is tainted by the view of the parking lot below having storage containers, construction materials and empty crates. The facility should make more effort to improve that eye sore. Sadly, since we were there in December we did not have any sunrise or sunset view from the condo. We did not have the time to enjoy the pool. As one photo in the ad may lead you to believe, you do not overlook the pool, you overlook the parking lot below with the ocean at a distance. If you prefer the Kihei area in Maui this is a very nice condo without the current construction issues.

Enjoyed my stay. considering construction was going on
I usually stay at a different unit at the Village in the South Bldg, BUT I absolutely enjoyed this condo in the North Bldg. .....unfortunately the repairs are still going on with all the workers/equipment in the north parking lot. Being on vacation I certainly didn't appreciate diesel trucks pulling in at 6:30 am to start work. The workers/equipment took a good deal of the parking lot which left not as many parking spaces for owners/renters. I would check how long this work will continue in 2020 as this was very inconvenient and early AM noise (before the 7 am startup). Those diesel engines are not quiet whatsoever. Office hours are only til 4:30 pm and they are not much help whatsoever...but you have to deal with them to get your parking permit.. I had trouble opening the lockbox, not knowing that you must reset box each and every time before putting in the code. Thank goodness a very nice permanent resident helped me or I may have been sleeping in the rental car for a night. The local realtor phone number given to call, didn't return my call for HOURS and he seemed not to know how to open the lock box...it was very stressful and I was absolutely beat from an 8 hour flight with babies screaming all around me. Without construction and lockbox issues, my stay was perfect in this unit.
