About this property

Ocean Front ground floor cozy condo with brand new bedroom remodel!


This cozy little Condo is perfectly situated just 60 feet from the edge of the ocean with panoramic views of both Lanai and Molokai! You can watch whales and sea turtles while sipping your morning coffee right from the table on the lanai, or you can explore the area, with Whaler's Village in Kaanapali, the Kapalua Coastal trail, and some of the most beautiful beach in the world just 5-15 minutes away!!

In April 2019 we finished some great improvements including a brand new king mattress in the bedroom, total kitchen remodel with all new appliances, new queen size sleeper sofa with memory foam mattress, beautiful vinyl flooring, and we think the results are amazing! In November 2024 we gave the bedroom a much needed transformation, and we hope you enjoy the new look as well as a brand-new wifi t.v. for watching movies from the comfort of your bed!

If you are looking to stay close to home, you can choose from the pool, lawn chairs along the sea wall, or our own little quiet sandy beach area to the north of the building complex to relax around, or you can use the Condo as your launch pad for all the amazing places to explore on the island! In our opinion, there is no where better to be then our front yard for taking in the breath taking beautiful of Maui sunsets!

The Kitchen is fully equipped, and the community BBQ is also available for your use just to the right of our unit!!

We have beach towels, beach chairs, boogie boards, and snorkels available for your use!!

PLEASE NOTE THAT OUR CONDO DOES NOT HAVE AC. However it does have a wonderful breezeway, ceiling fans, and floor fans.

This Condo has been in our family for more than 23 years, so whether this is a family vacation, or romantic getaway, we hope you will be our guest, and enjoy a wonderful time on the beautiful island of Maui!!

Mahalo!!

Lovely first floor unit with unbeatable views. Very comfortable master bed along with plenty of kitchen necessities. By far the warmest pool we have ever experience. That was a great surprise. Easy parking and excellent proximity to food options galore. Thank you!

This is the place!
My wife and I spent a week at this beautiful condo. The condo decor and accommodation are fabulous! As far as the location (especially on the ground floor), it was the BEST experience ever! You're able to open the sliding door and enjoy the ocean view, sounds, and breeze. There is no AC, and it was not needed with the cross breeze moving through the condo. The location is exactly what we needed. Not too close to the hustle and bustle of the tourist areas but still close enough to drive to. One huge plus, we were able to see Whales, dolphins, and tortoises, from the back deck. The owners graciously have binoculars to use along with snorkel gear. This condo rental will be our number-one choice for future Maui vacations. Needless to say, super happy with our condo choice!

I hesitated when I saw that it was a ground floor unit, but pleasantly surprised when we arrived. It’s a private area with an excellent view of the water which really is 60 feet away from your patio. China Boat is a restaurant across the street which we had takeout from and ate on our patio and it was excellent. The accommodations were magnificent. They really do have a gem on Maui.

Great location
Older property but great location and view! We loved our stay and plan to return. Very convenient and close to the main tourist areas but we looked forward to getting back to our room, and view, each day after activities. Having snorkel gear, and beach chairs was a plus. No A/C was a concern but the ocean breeze flowing thru the unit very nice!

Great location.
Loved this location. Plenty of great beaches & plenty of great restaurants in the area. Saw turtles almost daily. Loved having the beach chairs & snorkeling gear as well as a small cooler on hand. Chocolates on arrival a nice touch. Only reason for 4 instead of 5 is that it’s slightly outdated & a little on the warm side with no air conditioner. Fan was provided. There is a self pay laundry station just out the door. We would book here again. Great communication with the hosts.

Pleasant stay
The apartment was just what we needed. Loved the beach gear that was available. Beach chairs, umbrella and snorkel stuff. The kitchen was nice and well equipped with appliances if you wanted to do any cooking. The bedroom and bathroom are dated but the owners book says they are on the list to be remodeled. The couch, spare blankets and the bathroom just felt so/so clean but everything else was good. The turtles, sharks and sunsets did not disappoint! The unit is not air-conditioned but I prefer the ocean breeze blowing through anyway. Overall pleasant stay!

Great location/comfortable and well appointed
We spent four days at this great little condo. It was well located close to lots of beautiful beaches and plenty of Restaurants and places to shop. Loved the ground floor location. Beautiful cross breeze kept it cool day and night. We didn’t cook a lot because our stay was only four days, but the kitchen looked very well appointed. And I particularly appreciate the functional knife set. So many properties skimp on their knives but this set offered everything I needed. The bed was comfortable, and there were plenty of towels for two of us. I definitely stay again. There was so much to do and see in West Maui I definitely stay again. There was so much to do and see in West Maui we for sure we for sure need to go back.

Wonderful!
We had a great stay! Away from the resort chaos yet close to everything. Amazing views with sea turtles every day! Quiet neighbors and very clean grounds. All of the beach equipment that was provided was the best! Didn’t have to worry about renting anything. There really isn’t an accessible sandy beach but that didn’t detract from our visit. Thank you!!!

Maui at its best. Pure magic
I took my two young daughters, 9 and 13, for their very first trip to Maui. The property is very well kept and close to markets, food, etc. The owners left a folder explaining the history of the unit and how it’s been in the family for many years. It was a pleasure to be a guest and create new memories in this home. My daughters absolutely loved it! We saw sea turtles, sharks, rainbows and so much more! I’ll definitely plan on starting here again on my future visits.

Perfect getaway!
This was the perfect location for our anniversary trip. My husband's first trip to the islands! The condo was clean, spacious, and had the most stunning view! It was in a fantastic location close to coffee, restaurants, and the bigger resorts to access their luaus, restaurants, etc. Loved the absolute peace of this condo though! Enjoyed the outside spaces at all times of day. Parking was always available! We would love to come back!

Anniversary Trip
We stayed at Kahana Reef 47 years ago on our honeymoon. We had a budget of $1000. We needed airfare, lodging, a car, and food. A travel agent directed us to $20/night condos for our two weeks, Kahana Reef. Individually owned and rented through office by laundry room. Still have brochure in our album. Direct beach access, no sea wall or pool then China boat predicessor across the street as well as sugar cane fields up the hillside. They were burning the cane while we were here. Amazing sight. Created a few issues with small critters escaping the burning but KR was prepared. Great visit then and 3 more visits since. First time we have been on ground floor. Love this unit. Clean and neat. We bbq’d with our son n family who were staying down the road. Great family sunset pics. Oh has Kahana changed since our first visit. Here you don’t feel crowded. DnJ

We really liked the condo, the view of the ocean is wonderful! But our vacation was not complete because it was impossible to swim in the ocean because of the reef sharks that came every evening. Because the fishermen next to the hotel washed their fish every day,

Turtles, Ocean, and Relaxation!
We loved our stay there! Every time we’d walk up to the edge of the water right in front of our back door we’d see 3-8 turtles at a time hanging right by the edge. We were able to take nice, long walks along the beach right next to the community, it felt very private! The place inside was great as well! We felt comfortable, enjoyed every minute!

Second Visit - Great again!
This was my 2nd stay at this property and, like the first time around, we had a great time. The first floor unit has amazing views and you're just steps away from the waters edge and a small/quaint beach area. The condo is spacious and clean and having access to beach towels/chairs/umbrella is a definite plus!

About the host

Hosted by Ruslan and Sharyn Borodin

Host profile image
This cozy little spot beautifully overlooking the Hawaiian Islands of Lanai and Molokai has been in our family for 18 years, purchased the year my husband and I got married. My parents, Dave and Sandy, mainly used it as a winter retreat seeking a reprieve from the cold winters of Northern Idaho.
After my Dad’s passing in 2017, we began to consider how best to manage it for the future. Makana is the Hawaiian word for gift. The Hawaiian Islands were very special to both my parents, but my dad especially really loved it here. Being able to keep this beautiful spot in our family feels like a gift that he has left behind for his kids, his grandkids, and I hope his great grandkids!






Why they chose this property

You can’t spend 5 minutes on the Hawaiian islands without recognizing what a incredible gift this beautiful island is to it’s occupants and many visitors. Makana at Kahana Reef, or the gift at Kahana Reef, reflects our thankfulness to God for blessing us with such a gift in His vibrant creation so apparent as you listen to the bird song, smell the fragrance of all the different varieties of flowers, watch the whales breaching just off the shores, and on and on as you wander through this incredible island.
My dad was a retired law Enforcement officer for the U.S. Forest Service. You’ll find ‘his’ coffee cup in the cupboards! If you use it, consider sending up a quick prayer for your local law enforcement community! :0)
On a practical note, we have just finished major renovations of the Condo this past April 2019. We plan to finish next year by completing the bathroom makeover, new flooring in the bedroom, new ceiling, and tiling on the lanai. We hope you enjoy the improvements, and appreciate your understanding that there are still some parts of the condo with some character left from the old days! :0) Also, as some of our first guests, please let us know how we might better equip the condo to make it a even more enjoyable stay! If there is something we missed, we’d love to hear about it!
We hope you enjoy every minute of your time here! It’s a pleasure to have you as our guests!

What makes this property unique

The best thing in our opinion about this condo is it's location!! The Ocean is your front yard, with so many places to enjoy right on location, but Kahana is also a incredible location for seeing some of the most beautiful parts of Maui!!
