Map & Owner's Profile
Another Get Me to Maui-1BR/1BA Beach Front-Spectacular Views!
Year Purchased: 2001
Why the Owner Chose Mahana
We fell in love with the Mahana in 1977. We were walking along the North Kaanapali Beach. The sun was setting between the islands of Lanai and Molokai. It was the most amazing sight! We turned around and saw the Mahana. It was so close to the water and all of the condos faced the ocean front on with floor-to-ceiling ocean views. We knew right then and there that we had to buy one of these beachfront homes. For us it was the view and the view and the view! We bought our first Mahana condo (#818) then. We bought this condo (#708) in 2001 and our third one (#819) in 2004. Today, after all of these years, we still love coming back as often as we can!
The Unique Benefits at this Condominium
For us it’s a home away from home. In winter we love watching the whales, in summer it’s the dolphins and turtles. I love getting up to see the dawn coming up over the ocean. My husband is mesmerized by the stars. We all enjoy walking or jogging on the beach, swimming and snorkeling in the crystal clear blue water below, exploring all the other nearby beaches, Kapalua Bay, Napili Bay, Fleming Beach, Honolua Bay. We also love going to the Farmers market for fresh papaya and mangos and finding local fish to grill back at the Mahana. It’s the majesty of the ocean and the mountains. It’s the trade winds and the friendly people. It’s something else -totally special - that is just impossible to describe. You have to come to Maui and the Mahana and you will experience it yourself!
Owner's Map of Mahana
We both grew up by the sea, David in Ireland, Kathy in San Francisco and we always knew that however far away we moved from it, we would always come back. After we met in college, we traveled much of the world together. We saw Tahiti, Fiji, the Indian Ocean, the Great Barrier Reef, the South China Seas, but it was Maui and the stretch of beach in front of the Mahana that captured our hearts. We bought our first condo at the Mahana in 1977. Over the years, we returned to Maui and the Mahana for a month every summer. For our children, it was a second home. Now young adults, they still love coming back every chance they can. Once you have been to the Mahana, you’ll want to come back too!

We were both SO pleased with our experience in your Mahana Unit #708! From the moment we walked in, we felt like we were home. The breathtaking views, beautiful furniture, comfortable bed, well-appointed kitchen, outside barbeques, and new washer/dryer were perfect! And the care you have taken to supply the necessary amenities such as paper goods, soaps of all kinds, and cleaning supplies made it so easy to keep up. We felt honored to be able to stay there, and would love to stay in your condo in the future. Maui is one of our favorite places, because there are so many things to do and we find something new and different each time as well! Thank you again for sharing this wonderful place with us, and we’ll be contacting you again when we plan our next trip to Maui. Julie & Rich, California

We would like to thank you for making our trip to Maui everything we'd expected and more. Your condo (#708) truly made us feel like we were at home! I'm sure this won't be the last time we'll be chatting with you, as we're pretty certain trips to Maui will become a more regular occurrence. The entire island felt so warm and comforting, due in large part to your condo. It felt so different this time around (this was our second time there). We explored pretty much all of Lahaina, all the way down to Wailea, but reserved a good portion of Maui for next time. Once again, Mahalo! Jason & Emme

What a wonderful time our family had in Maui! Thank you so much for letting us stay in your beautiful condo! The great views, the sound of waves crashing from the lanai and your home touches made our stay absolutely perfect! We went to the Old Lahaina Luau, conquered the Road to Hana and of course went boogey- boarding every day! This was our first time to Maui, but definitely not our last! We are so sad to have to leave!! Anh, California.

Mahalo for letting us stay at your beautiful vacation home. The view is amazing! We spent many hours just relaxing in front of the window, watching the ocean and the beautiful sunsets. There was even a rainbow over the ocean this morning! We had a fantastic time here. We went snorkeling at Kapalua Bay, Kaanpali Beach and Napli. We saw a beautiful Honu at Black Rock. We also drove up to Haleaka to catch the amazing sunrise. It was freezing up there but well worth the view. Thank you so much again! We hope to be back soon!

Boo hoo! We have to leave Maui tonight after a week of beautiful scenery, great food and such a comfortable place to stay. We will miss those views from your from your windows! We have gorgeous mountain views at home in Tucson, but alas no ocean! Aloha & Mahalo, Gael and Steve.

Thank you so much for renting your condo to us. We had a wonderful time here in Maui. This was our first time to the island and we couldn't have asked for a nicer condo. The view was breathtaking! We even saw sea turtles! Thank you for making our vacation wonderful! Ryan & Erica, Virginia

This was our 4th time on Maui and our 2nd stay at the Mahana. This complex has unbeatable views! Our stay in your condo was just fantastic! It was our home away from home! Everything we could ever need was right here. We hope to come back soon! Isabel & Stan, Canada

Our favorite stay yet in Maui! Been here several times, but this condo with its view was awesome! Whales breaching every day! We also went whale watching with Pacific Whale Foundation and to the luau in Lahaina. Very entertaining. Mostly relaxed & enjoyed warm breezes, sunsets, being together. It was great!
