Location: Honokowai, West Maui, Maui, Hawaii, USA (Lahaina)

Accommodations:  Condominium, 2 Bedrooms + Convertible bed(s), 1 Bath (Sleeps 6)

Beautifully remodeled, 2 bedroom, 1 bath, oceanfront Condominium. This unit is as close to the spectacular Maui ocean as you can get!

From December through April, enjoy a perfect vantage point from the lanai for viewing the arrival of the humpback whales making their way between Maui and Molokai in the Pailolo Channel. Other times, watch the spinner dolphins dance by and the tropical fish dart about in the reef or even green sea turtles pop their heads up in the early morning.

With the expansive sliding glass door open, the extra wide living room/dining is an extension of the 24 foot wide lanai where you can still enjoy the enticing views and the beautiful sounds of the ocean waves that are music to the ears. With the doors closed a hush descends and air conditioning cools the room to your selected temperature. Lanai is furnished with a lounge chair, 4 chairs and table.

Decorated in Hawaiian-style with lots of rattan, the colors of the room reflect the surroundings of sea and sand. A queen sleeper sofa, matching chair with ottoman, along with accompanying tables and lamps provide comfort and convenience. In addition, cable TV, DVD player, CD player, and VCR are available to enjoy after spending a day exploring the nearby attractions or more of the island of Maui.

At the Maui Sands condo, you can dine inside at the kitchen counter, at the dining table for four inside or on the lanai - each with views of the ocean and sunsets. Dining oceanfront on the lanai is a treat where you can enjoy a candle lit dinner with a spectacular sunset directly in front of you. And after dinner you can enjoy a walk on the beach your friends or family.

The kitchen of this condo at the Maui Sands has been recently remodeled with beautiful oak cabinetry. The granite countertops provide an elegant backdrop while you relax at the bar stools and enjoy pupus and perhaps a Mai Tai. The kitchen is fully-stocked with the appliances, utensils, and cookware needed to prepare a meal for six and includes new appliances, a range, refrigerator, microwave, toaster, coffee maker and blender.

Create you own meals with beautiful dishes and glassware. Bright, natural lighting provides ideal illumination for meal preparation and, of course, since the kitchen is open to the living room and dining room, there are the ever present sounds and beauty of the Pacific Ocean.

  • Aloha Laura! We just returned from Maui a few weeks ago, and we are still in mourning! We miss your beautiful condo at the Maui Sands. We loved the sound of the ocean while we were falling asleep, and we enjoyed our morning walks along the reef. We have stayed in Maui before, and your condo is in an ideal location. We will definitely stay there again (hopefully real soon). You have stocked your kitchen perfectly, and you have done a beautiful job decorating it in tasteful island style. The washer and dryer were so helpful, and the courtyards were played in by our children each day. We used the grills and we loved eating every meal on the beautiful lanai. Thanks for the TLC you have put into your condo! Until next time. . .Christine

    Mahalo Laura, We recently stayed at your condo, March 23 through the 27th. I want to thank you for the wonderful time we had at your home. The sound of waves and the beautiful view were such a change for those of us who live in the Midwest. Thanks again for letting us stay at your piece of paradise. Daniel Yerke

  • We just returned from our vacation in Maui. The condo was everything as promised and the bed was really comfortable. The view of the the whales was fabulous and we saw a lot of activity in the mornings. We found Maui Sands centrally located to most places and easy walking distances to stores, farmers market and beach access. The complex was quiet clean and people staying there were generally friendly. We hope to return soon and see some of the sights we missed due to the rain.

  • We stayed at the Maui Sands 4E with our five year old twins for 9 days in October It was such an ideal location for our family! The unit was spacious, clean and well stocked with everything we needed to play at the beach, cook all of our meals and have all the conveniences of home. We loved having in- suite laundry! We started every morning having coffee and breakfast on the lanai and seeing who could be the first to spot a sea turtle and we ended our days watching the sun set into the sea. The proximity to the beach was perfect and we felt so safe having our children play in the water because of the reef. They loved racing up and down the beach watching little fish swim in the water beside them. We were impressed with the snorkeling we could do between the two reefs. Amazing! Within two weeks of being home we have booked another trip to Maui for next summer and of course we will be staying at our Maui "home" - Maui Sands 4E. Can't wait to get back! Dustin Keller and family

  • Laura, The condo was a perfect getaway from all the fires we were having in San Diego. My parents were amazed how close the condo was to the ocean! The views from the balcony are spectacular, and the condo itself was perfect for us. The beds were comfortable, and the drawers came in handy for a week long stay. The full kitchen was great as well. We also stocked up at costco, and barbecued out on the grill... some of the best steaks I've eaten in a long time. My whole family had a blast on Maui, and your condo was great to come home to each night after zip-lining, biking down volcanos, hiking up waterfalls, snorkeling, and seeing all the wild life in Lahaina on Halloween. I would definitely stay here again! Mahalo! Holly

    We had a great time in the condo - we like the location a lot. Can't believe the 9 days went so fast, and we come back to FALL weather here in the Bay Area....yuck! Anyway, thanks much.....we can see why you love your place so much. It was great to have the Washer and Dryer in the unit itself. That was a Big PLUS for Linda. We hope we left it the way you would..... Anyway, thanks again.... Dan and Linda

    Thanks Laura, It was the best. The view was better than we could have imagined. You have a beautiful home. We did exactly as you recommended, we stocked up at Costco and ate almost all of our meals at home and saved a bundle. We snorkeled every morning/evening just outside the unit. Saw a turtle one day! We hope to return again some day. Thanks again.

    March 17 –23, 2007 We had a fabulous time in Maui and the unit was wonderful. It is newly remodeled and very nicely decorated. The location couldn’t be better – it truly is right on the ocean. Also just minutes away (walking) from the coffee shop, farmers market, grocery store, and several small deli/restaurants for take out or eat in. The sound of the waves coming in, the sunsets, the whales – it couldn’t have been better!! A perfect place for us to kick back and enjoy some great family time... We will be back...

  • Laura, Les and I have only been home a week and are ready to return. Your condo and it's ocean front location are ideal for getting away from the fast paced day to day living here on the mainland. As previously written, the sounds and views of the ocean, quality and comfort of the accommodations and overall value of the condo make it high on our list for repeat vacations. Thanks again, Steve

  • Laura - thanks for a week at your special getaway. The four of us were very comfortable and couldn't get over how close the unit was to the waves. We loved sunsets and whale watching on the lanai, walks on the beach, surfs out front and falling asleep to the sounds of the ocean. Great beds too...some award winning sleeps! Overall the unit was very well setup and we couldn't have asked for anything more. Hope to return again soon.
