Sandy Swimmable beach on-site Fully Equipped (kitchen, beach toys, baby furniture, toys)

This spacious two level 3 bedroom and 3 full bath Penthouse unit has over 2,050 sq ft of living space allowing the whole family to stretch out. The 2 lanais, lots of windows, numerous skylights and vaulted ceilings make it very bright and airy. Being on the 9th floor, it is a very quiet location. There is only one other unit on the 9th floor and no other floors above us.

The entire condo has undergone a full renovation that was completed October 2020. The Penthouse has a new A/C system (most units do not have A/C).

There are 3 bedroom suites, all with private baths, their own A/C, flatscreen TV and plenty of closet space. The main floor master bedroom has a king sized bed with a tub/shower combination. This bedroom has sliding doors that open up into the living area and sliding doors to the lanai with beautiful views of Lana'i. The main floor second bedroom has 2 full size beds and a shower in the bathroom and a beautiful mountain view. The second floor loft bedroom has a king size bed with a shower, plenty of extra lounging space and its own lanai with a fantastic view of the ocean & Molokai. All of the bathrooms have double sinks. Although all of the rooms have A/C, opening up the sliders is a perfect a great way to enjoy the trade winds and still be able to hear the ocean.

The fully equipped remodeled kitchen has full size appliances, plenty of counter space and equipped with all of the conveniences of home. Some additional appliances include a rice cooker, blender, toaster, coffee maker and coffee grinder. There is also a washer and dryer located inside of the unit.

Enjoy your morning coffee or evening cocktails on one of the 2 lanais. Choose to look out onto Lana'i from the downstairs lanai or go upstairs and look out at Molokai. The perfect place for watching the most amazing sunsets.

Sands of Kahana is located on a sandy swimmable beach. The waves are gentle enough to get in the water and float around but large enough to offer some variations during the day. There is a vendor onsite in which you can rent paddle boards and other equipment. The unit is equipped with 4 beach chairs, cooler, boogie boards, some snorkel gear, sand toys and beach towels. You will find beach chairs and loungers down by the ocean and around the pool.

There are two pool areas at Sands of Kahana. One that is specifically designed for small children that allows them to play safely in a wading pool and the other that includes a large spa overlooking the ocean.

There is a restaurant onsite that is open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Perfect place to grab something while you are at the beach or a dinner when you just don't feel like cooking.

You will find spacious gas BBQ stations downstairs that are cleaned daily and offer prep counters. You will find all of the necessary BBQ tools in the condo to make sure that you can prepare the perfect meal.

There are two gyms onsite that offer both cardio equipment and weight equipment. You will also find pickleball courts, a basketball court, tennis courts and a miniature golf course.

If golf is what you are looking for, you are a short drive to the courses in Kapalua and Kaanapali which are some of Maui's best courses. We are located just a couple minutes outside of the Historic town of Lahaina which offers several restaurants, bars, art galleries and shopping. A perfect place to go in the evening to walk around or to grab an ice cream in the middle of the afternoon.

When you check in you can visit the concierge that can help you book any activities, make recommendations and make restaurant reservations.

There is complimentary WIFI in the unit and free covered parking.

Absolutely amazing condo!!

I booked this condo for my family of 6 ages 7, 12, 16, 40, and 43; I’m 66. We had 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms to spread out and live very comfortably for a week in paradise!! The penthouse condo was clean and beautifully arranged and decorated. But…THE VIEW from our lanai was breathtaking. The moment we opened the door to the lanai, we looked at the panoramic view of the multiple blue waters of the ocean and then looked at each other with smiles from ear to ear! We knew we made the right decision to book this condo. The huge kitchen, dining area, and living area were just perfect for us. The washer and dryer was so convenient for all of us, a great touch to the condo! We watched whales and turtles from the lanai, the beach, and from the pool! The property is centrally located on the island; every event we attended on the island was within 11 minutes. Captain Jack’s restaurant is located on the property beside the pool with a view of the ocean; the food is delicious and the staff is so friendly and full of information about Maui! The grounds were clean and well manicured, and the very friendly groundskeepers were constantly tending to the property upkeep. Parking was ample. A small convenience store, McDonalds, a sushi restaurant, a coffee shop, souvenir shops, among other shops and eateries are all within a 5-minute walk. Our host Cindy was great!! We all agreed that the condo was an A1 choice! We will definitely book this condo again on our next trip to Maui! Mahalo!!

Family group of 6 and we really enjoyed the space! So much natural light and a view of the ocean at every turn. Beautiful breezes off the water and the sounds of waves crashing lulled us to sleep. We were even able to watch whales and turtles from the balcony!The condo was clean and spacious with everything you would need to make meals or hang by the pool or beach…which were right downstairs. So convenient!Cynthia was always available if we had and questions and provided a huge list of suggestions for restaurants and excursions which we followed and were never disappointed.We would most definitely stay here again!!

What a GREAT Place!

WOW. This was one of the BEST places we have stayed in. It was immaculate, well stocked and beautiful. Cynthia made sure we knew we could contact her for anything, but we never needed to. It was better than described. It was on the water! I would 100% recommend staying. In general, the Sands of Kahana was a very nice complex. Having a rental shop on site was so easy! But this apartment was AMAZING!

Best rental we’ve ever had!

The condo is exactly as advertised. We just stayed here for 10 days in August 2024. The place was impeccably clean. Contact with the owner was as easy as it gets from the rental terms, to checking in to checking out. I felt at home here and would recommend this unit to anyone needing a spacious place with a great view while visiting Maui. I would rent from Cynthia 100 times out of 100.

Breathtakingly gorgeous ocean views

The description and pictures did not adequately show the breathtaking ocean views that met us as we stepped in this large condo. It exceeded our needs, and even our wants. It was a beautifully decorated condo. We fell asleep listening to the ocean. We enjoyed the skylights in our spacious bedroom off the living room. Does it get any better? I don’t think so. Cynthia had this condo stocked with ocean chairs, boogie boards, games, and more. All one might need for a day at the beach. With 8 people staying here, we did use the kitchen. It was stocked with everything we needed to prepare meals. She thought of everything. The appliances were great. I made this reservation last February and Cynthia was quick, professional, and very helpful as we were getting mixed signals as whether or not we needed to cancel because of the devastating wildfire. Communication was excellent all the way even when we contacted her during our stay about a small problem. She responded quickly and kindly. It was taken care of. The Sands of Kahana is a wonderful resort and Cynthia’s penthouse condo was the best. Lots of memory making moments are from this condo. Mahalo, Cynthia.

AMAZING stay -Highly Recommend!

We stayed late Oct of 2023 with my family which included my parents, and my sister and her family, including three girls between 9 and 12 years old. The condo couldn't have been a better fit for our group. The inside was gorgeous and looked exactly like the photos online, everything was in pristine condition and any questions I had were responded to immediately by the owner. The parking was easy and there was a wonderful Beach cafe on property that served delicious food. The private beach was well loved by our kids and we had several turtle sightings. The only complaint i have is that we had to leave and go home. :( I highly recommend staying at this property!

Magical stay in Maui

We loved staying at Cynthia’s penthouse property. The location was perfect, right on the beach, with easy access to shops and restaurants. The unit itself had everything we needed, including a kitchen with all cookware and dining ware, and beach gear. We were a family of 6 and everyone had their own space which was nice. We definitely appreciated the in-unit laundry. My husband and I took the main floor bedroom overlooking the ocean - fell asleep and woke up to the sounds of waves. We would definitely stay here again on our next trip to Maui!

This host went out of their way to give us the in's and out's of not only the property but the island as well. We felt the most genuine ohana!

Family Reunion

We stayed for two weeks in this wonderful condo. We had family coming from Australia, CT, WI and NC. It was beautiful, clean and had so many amenities we didn't expect. We loved sitting on the balcony everyday and watching the sea turtles. They had an electric awning that we could use when the sun was to hot. That was a wonderful feature to the condo. The area was super nice and walkable. We loved having the restaurant onsite for happy hour. It was beyond our expectations. Thank you for the opportunity to stay here.

A relaxing stay in a great condo

We really enjoyed our stay in this wonderful unit. The kitchen was fantastic with everything we needed to cook when we felt like it. The view from the kitchen sink was amazing. The grills on the resort property were cleaned daily and were very handy for evening meals. We used the beach chairs that come with the unit for the beach at the resort and for nearby Napili Bay. We had 6 people in the unit and there was plenty of space for all of us to enjoy the ocean view and eat together. Overall, we would highly recommend this property.

There are places to eat within walking distance, which was a plus when we were tired at the end of the day. The condo had one of the better stocked kitchens that we have had in a rental. There is a great beach about 2 miles down the road and the snorkeling provided the opportunity to see sea turtles and tons of fish. If you want a great place in a great location, this could be your place!

About the host

Hosted by Cynthia & John Rocha

Host profile image
My husband and I are Real Estate Investors. We enjoy traveling and no matter where we go, we always find ourselves looking at properties. Since we still have school age children I have found that a beach vacation is usually the most enjoyable for everyone. Living on the West Coast, Hawaii continued to be a place that we would return to time and time again.

Why they chose this property

We had been looking for several years for the perfect Hawaiian family condo. The condo had to be on a swimmable beach, have fantastic views and enough room for everyone to stretch out. When our friend bought a condo here and I saw his unit and the location, I told him that is exactly what we are looking for. And here we are, owners of a Penthouse unit at Sands of Kahana. The unit offers everything that I was hoping for to make our family vacations fun and memorable and any adult only vacations relaxing.

What makes this property unique

This condo has the most amazing views of Lana'i and Molokai. You can sit on the lanai and watch the sunsets, spot breaching whales during the whale migration season or watch the activity down at the beach. The pictures you see are accurate and are of the unit you will be staying in. And yes, we are that close to the beach! Down the elevator and a few steps to the beach which is never over crowded. Perfect place to relax.
The unit is unique since it offers individually controlled A/C in every room and so much space for your family. Not your typically sized beach front condo.
