Absolutely Wonderful

We were so pleased to have found this condo. The listing looked wonderful but you never know if the "real thing" is going to be as good as the pictures. The pictures don't do the condo justice. Great location, fantastic view, comfortable beds, nice shower. We'll definitely go back! I give this condo 10 stars out of 10!

Family spring break

The views from the condo are amazing. On the first morning, we saw whales, dolphins, turtles, and two monk seals. We enjoyed the hot tub and quick access to the beach. This was our second time at the condo, and it was perfect once again!

Perfect and Peaceful

Our family group of three had a great experience at this property.We spent hours watching whales, sea turtles, monk seal and surfers while enjoying morning coffee or an afternoon refresher on the well protected (from wind and afternoon sun) deck.We were delighted to discover the beach boardwalk started from the parking area of the property, allowing us access to the shops and restaurants all the way to Whaler’s Village.We were also very pleased with the tennis/pickle ball court which was very lightly used and easy to sign up for, offering great shade all morning. The grounds were well kept and there was always a set of lounging chairs by the pool or in the pleasant grass area near the ocean, a perk for staying at this property vs one of the larger resorts nearby.We found all that we needed in the unit, from games to yoga mats and beach chairs. The beds were comfortable and the space was very clean.We did need to figure out a bit of a trick to opening the door (seems a slow turn of the handle was best). Communication with Sarah (the owner) was easy and always pleasant.We had a great week! Thank you!

Christmas in Maui!

Our stay in this condo was absolutely wonderful! The space is beautifully appointed, spacious, and incredibly well-equipped. The views are breathtaking, stretching from the ocean to the mountains. We loved watching whales, turtles rolling in the surf, and surfers—all from the comfort of the living room and balcony. Sarah is an exceptional hostess, providing us with all the essential information about the condo, local activities, and great restaurant recommendations. The location is perfect! Highly recommend!

Book this NOW!

This exceeded our expectations. We had to postpone our stay by one year due to the Lahaina fires. Sarah the owner worked with us to make our trip happen as it was intended as a 50th wedding anniversary celebration. The views are better than the pictures and you won't want to leave the lanai. I would have given it 10 stars if I could have.

Excellent Right on the Beach Condo

This condo is absolutely amazing! The location is right on the beach on the 8th floor with 270 degree views and very close to Times Market for groceries. We saw whales right in front of the condo every single day we were there. The beach was beautiful and so enjoyable to walk for an hour every day. The condo had everything we could possibly need for the 2 weeks that we stayed there. The kitchen was stocked with all the cooking pots/pans, utensils, spices, and the storage containers that allowed us to cook our evening meals every day. We appreciated that lots of extras were included (beach towels, cooler, beach chairs, water boards, etc.). The washer/dryer combination was so nice as we could pack lighter for our stay. The views of the sunset were lovely every night. We thoroughly enjoyed staying in this condo.

Great location and awesome views

This property exceeded our expectations (which were already high based on the pictures and description). Sarah was responsive to any communication and great to work with. The condo was clean and comfortable, with every amenity that we wanted. Good beaches were an easy walk away and whale watching from the living room or lanai was phenomenal. We would definitely stay here again.

Aloha Condo

Beautiful oceanfront condo. Waves, views of both Molokai and Lanai greet you along with Green Sea Turtles surfing the waves. The Aloha spirit is here at this place. Staff and Owners attentive to all needs. The kitchen well stocked. Might need an ice cream scoop but that’s all I could not find. Furnishings we’re beautiful but still comfortable. We hope to return.

Amazing!

My family and I stayed at this condo for eight nights, and it was absolutely amazing. The condo has the most incredible views of the beach and ocean where we could see turtles swimming and even caught a few rainbows in the mornings. The kitchen is fully stocked, which was awesome since we decided to stay in and cook a few nights. everything stated in the details about this condo is accurate. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there and would absolutely go back. Also, the owner was very helpful with recommending things to do locally and answered any and all questions in a very timely manner. You cannot go wrong with booking this property.

Amazing views!

Sarah’s condo was beautiful with amazing views and amenities. The location is absolutely gorgeous. It is well stocked with all the “extra” essentials you could ever imagine (beach chairs, umbrellas, coolers, beach towels, spices) and typically do not find in other rental properties. Sarah was great all throughout the process. The only issue we had, and I hesitate to even mention, but the unit had not been thoroughly cleaned and there appeared to be a cockroach problem as we saw them everyday. We bought traps and sprayed and the HOA sprayed while we were there but the roaches persisted. Sarah was great throughout though which helped a lot.

Kanapali Shores

What an amazing experience! We saw whales breaching, dolphins frolicking, seals playing, and turtles basking… all from the comfort of our beautiful room! The condo is beautifully and tastefully decorated and Sarah has thought of EVERYTHING. Plenty of towels, binoculars, well stocked kitchen and pantry, toiletries etc. The location of the condo is conveniently located near the elevators and it was peacefully quiet throughout our entire stay despite the island being very busy with tourists. Sarah is a fantastic and responsive host. The condo was very clean and welcoming. We loved our visit and look forward to staying again. Highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Sarah Feeley

Hi, I am your host Sarah and reside in Southern California with my husband and 3 children. We are happy to share our beautiful condo located on the west side of Maui situated on Kaanapali Beach.

This family owned property is something we love to share and have hosted many guests over the last 9 years. After traveling to Maui many times over the years, we finally decided to purchase our own home away from home and share it will so many people along the way. I look forward to working with each guest and making sure they have a wonderful Hawaiian vacation.

Why they chose this property

The Mahana at Kaanapali is situated closer to the ocean than any resort in Maui. As frequent Hawaii visitors, we understand exactly what a visitor expects and desires when staying in Maui.

What makes this property unique

Our unit offers the quintessential view of Hawaiian landscape. A ground unit may offer direct access from patio to beach, but limits itself to the beautiful surrounding views. A top floor unit offers a panorama view of the ocean but without views of the palm trees, beach and waves. Our home offers the most desirable blend of palm trees, beach, waves and surrounding island views from living room, bedroom and lanai. Step in to our 8th floor unit, walk in and you'll be nothing short of amazed!
