A few comments from previous guests....
'I'm going to save you a lot of time. We spent a month in spring 2008 in Maui & walked all the available condo properties from N. Wailea to Kapalua. This is the best of the condo complexes by owners available. A number are 60's and 70's complexes that are just so tired. Some of the complexes looked nice on the Internet--not so nice when you walk them. Read the reviews on Mahana. In the photos it looks a bit dark, it isn’t. It’s rich and luxurious. The living room has windows on three sides for a view that surrounds you. Amazing furnishings and detail, every square inch. It's a corner unit with windows on the ocean and side toward the pool. It's the right condo complex, the right unit with the right owners. If it's available just stop here, it's the one. After you stay in Mahana #301 anything else will seem a distant second. As an extra bonus we never had to reserve a pool lounge.... Craig C., Oregon

"Jennifer, Your place was amazing!! We felt like movie stars! Thank you so much..... Thank you again for allowing us to enjoy your magnificent condo, we had a great vacation.Happy new year!" Moriet M. Family, Washington

"I wanted to extend our sincere appreciation and thanks for the use of your condo in Maui. It was spectacular! We truly enjoyed ourselves and our stay at (Mahana 301), and loved everything about it. You guys did a “superb” job of remodeling the unit and I must say that the quality of “workmanship” and “design” is first class! We look forward to returning to Maui in the not too distant future, and hope that when we do, we can once again, call upon you for assistance at the Mahana Resort. Thank you, again, and we wish you and your family the best." ...Henry & Kay, Houston, Texas

"(Mahana 301) was absolutely AMAZING!!!! We LOVED it!! You & Jeff did such a beautiful job with everything. You had everything we could have needed & so much more! We're at a condo right now on Kauai that is beautiful but yours is better! We had such a great time on Maui & we had the most beautiful, comfortable place to come home to every night. Thank you so very much! Aloha!" ...Donna C., New York

"How rewarding an experience it was to stay in your wonderful unit during our Maui stay. What an awesome remodel you guys have done! The place is like a 5-STAR HOTEL, the amenities are great, and your decorative touches are just the final icing on the cake! My wife and her family thoroughly enjoyed their stay and we appreciate you getting a rice cooker for us too! We snorkeled a few days, drove the Road to Hana, enoyed the Old Lahaina Luau, and hit the Iao Valley and Needle, but the simple things were the best, such as the sound of crashing waves, and sunsets on your Lanai! Oh, and watching the U.S. win Gold on your flat-screen TVs weren't bad either! Thank you so much from us all for your wonderful accommodations!" ...Clarence & Mayumi, California

"Thanks so much for letting us stay in your condo. We'll never forget the feeling of thinking that we could jump off the rail of the lanai right into the ocean. We loved watching the whales right from the living room couch. We love Maui and this will definitely not be our last time here!" ...The Cole family, Roseville, California

Why the Owner Chose Mahana

When making the decision to purchase in Maui we didn't think twice about the Mahana. It is truly a VERY UNIQUE PROPERTY. Every condo is ALL OCEANFRONT...ALL THE TIME. The Mahana is situated closest to the white sandy beaches and shoreline of Kaanapali. Mahana 301 is on the third floor and when entering the apartment you sense that the ocean is right at your feet. One guest made the comment that "it feels like I can jump off the lanai right into the ocean!" Our condo is within minutes to fine dining, a wide range of outdoor activities, world-class shopping, cultural events and more. There was absolutely no question that we had made the right choice when choosing Mahana 301!

A
MAHANA 301~BEST VALUE!

Direct oceanfront luxury 2 bdrm., 2 bath condo only 50 feet from world-famous white sandy beaches of Ka'anapali. Only 8 minutes to Lahaina, world-class shopping, dining, cultural events and more!

B
Lahaina, Maui, HI

Rich with cultural exhibits, world-class shopping and great restaurants.

C
Kahului Airport

Approximately 40 minute drive to Mahana 301.

D
Maui Ocean Aquarium near Maalea Harbor

An awesome experience for kids of all ages!

E
Road to HANA

Amazing Maui Rain Forest.

Owner's Map of Mahana

Jeff and I fell in love with Maui when we first visited with our three daughters in 1989. Each time we returned we dreamed that one day we would be able to own a piece of "paradise." We were fortunate enough to be able to purchase Mahana 301 and have never regretted it. Every year we try to visit and celebrate our wedding anniversary which makes the occasion especially memorable. Now are daughters are all grown up and also enjoy visiting with their loved ones and friends. We enjoy assisting our guests in their vacation needs...making sure everything is just as they would like when they arrive. When you visit Maui and Mahana 301 you will never want to leave!

Mahalo for the best stay ever

Guest: VnB (Seattle, WA area)
Date of Stay: 12/03/11 Review Submitted: 01/11/12

WOW! What an amazing job J & J have done to make Maui Paradise a warm and inviting home away from home. They have upgraded the unit with an eye to both practical use and beauty. We enjoyed Maui Paradise so much we did not want to “waste” time away. The beach is right there in front of you, the complex has nice grills for your use and a sea turtle shows up every afternoon for your viewing pleasure. You can just walk out to snorkel and swim. Or sit on the beach (J & J have provided beach chairs and coolers for your use) and watch the paddle boarders and surfers. The lanai got A LOT of use while we were there; breakfast every morning and sunsets every evening. The only down side I see is that no other rental can live up to Maui Paradise! Book this unit; you will be smiling your entire stay. Aloha!

Guest: K & M (Texas)
Date of Stay: 09/10/11 Review Submitted: 10/24/11

We were three adults who stayed here for two wonderful weeks. Jennifer was very good to work with and alleviated my fears of renting through an owner directly. She always answered emails and addressed any problems or questions quickly and pleasantly. The condo was clean, well organized and had everything we could have asked for and more. I am very particular about cleanliness and this condo was VERY clean compared to some five star hotels we have visited. The kitchen was fully stocked with every utensil and cooking item we could have needed (not that I cooked on vacation). The quality of the finishes were top notch. The counter area has two chairs for a quick morning breakfast. The dining table between the counter seating area and living room has four chairs, so six can sit and eat comfortably. The master bedroom held a comfy, CLEAN king sized bed and still left plenty of room for two large Asian inspired bedside tables. The built-ins had more than enough room for our clothes and personal items. The stacked washer/dryer unit is in the master bedroom behind full sized mirror doors. It doesn’t hold much at once, but that is common for a stacked unit. The large walk-in shower is built for two. The separate shower and toilet area also has a cabinet for storage. The rear bedroom (island view) was quiet and comfortable. It has a large walk-in shower and dressing area with sink and storage for personal items. Storage under the bench in the rear bedroom held extra sheets and blankets. Floor to ceiling windows provide breath taking views. The side window between the kitchen and dining area provides a full view of the pool area. The walls are a dark green but there is no lack of light in this condo. Well placed track/recessed lighting and natural light from the floor to ceiling windows give this condo a bright airy feel. The unit is ocean front and has full floor to ceiling windows. There appeared to be mostly adults staying here. We felt very safe here, even walking at night. The grounds are quiet, well maintained, clean and there is ample free parking space. There is a grocery store right across the street. The only thing I would change about the property would be to make it non-smoking (the actual unit was non-smoking). We would not hesitate to stay here again. You can see my photos of this unit on Flickr. Simply search for SnorkelKitty (under ‘People’) and you will see a link to my photos under the set for this unit.

Fabulous Condo!

Guest: Nikki and Joel (Monroe, Wa.)
Date of Stay: 04/19/11 Review Submitted: 05/02/11

We had a great vacation! Your condo is beautiful! Every detail is luxurious and perfect. The grounds are beautifully maintained too. We used the BBQ and ate dinner by the pool one night. I took a walk down the beach and realized Mahana was the only building with condos right next to the beach. And thank you for the email right before we arrived with directions and restaurant and activity recommendations. I kept that email with me and referred to it often while we were there. The only problem I had was leaving :) I didn't want to go home. We can't wait to go back.

An Unforgettable Experience

Guest: Lizz (Castle Rock, CO USA)
Date of Stay: 03/18/11 Review Submitted: 03/28/11

This condo made my first visit to Maui a dream come true. It was not only my first visit to Maui, but also my first experience with VRBO. I must say I was very nervous with handing over so much money to an unknown entity, however, all communication with Jennifer beforehand eased my mind. Once we arrived onsite, we could not believe our eyes. The property is furnished beautifully with no detail left un-noticed. The property is meticulously maintained; from the pool to the hot tub to the grills. The sunsets from the lanai are breathtaking. If you are looking for first class accomodation at an affordable price, look no further. We enjoyed every minute and would highly recommend this condo to any and everyone.

Owner response:Aloha Lizz, Jeff and I are so happy to hear you enjoyed the condo. But more important, we're glad to know that your first trip to Maui was a great success! We strive to exceed our guests expectations to ensure hey will have a memorable experience. Mahalo for your kind words. When you decide to return to Paradise we would be happy to assist you with your vacation needs. Best Regards, Jeff & Jennifer

Absolutely Amazing

It had been awhile since my last trip to this fabulous condo, I almost forgot how gorgeous it is -- the decor is elegant yet warm, and the few times I sat down, I remembered how comfy that huge couch is! And the view -- amazing. It's very obvious that you take pride in your home away from home, and we were so lucky to have stayed there. We couldn't have asked for a better vacation! Thank you!! :)

Mom & Dad, Thank you so much for this amazing vacation you so generously let us enjoy! We went on a Maui Excursion on a small motorized raft for a snorkeling/whale watching adventure. Probably the BEST thing we did...other than just pure relaxation under the sun! Spent quality time enjoying Lahaina, and enjoyed the best happy hour special at Aloha Mixed Plate! We love you & Thank you again! xoxo Steph & Joel P.S. The Road to Hana was not as bad as we thought it was going to be. The Bamboo Forest was amazing! So many joys in life. Thank for this one!

Of all the activities we did while on Maui, nothing compared to the sunsets from the lanai or from the beach. Thank you so very much for sharing your Maui Paradise with us!
