Owner's Profile

Owner Description

Year Purchased: 2004

Hi. We are Michael and Kathy Rain,owners of #1216 Penthouse at the Mahana. We are Realtors in the San Francisco Bay Area with Coldwell Banker Real Estate and are very particular about properties. Michael is also a professional musician playing guitar for over 50 years with 2 CD's including one Hawaiian CD called Island Rain. We are pasionate about each other after 29 years together and our love of Maui. We are avid hikers and have had the most incredible hikes around the Island. The Mahana is our second home and our goal is to rent to couples that would like to feel like it is their second home too. Aloha Nui Loa.

Why the Owner Chose Mahana

As long time Realtors in the San Francisco Coastal communities, we wanted to find a view vacation home that was as good or better than what we have at home. When we decided to purchase a vacation home in Hawaii, we visted the 4 main Islands as well as Lanai. We looked for an Island that would have enough to do without the big city feel and population and where we wouldn't have to be concerned with major bad weather. Maui was the perfect choice. We went to every part of the Island and settled on North Kaanapali Beach. We looked at every condo complex and found that the Mahana was the only all oceanfront condo. We also loved the fact that the bedroom faced the water instead of the mountain. We only wanted the top floor, 12th-Penthouse, and we wanted the Lanai building. We found the perfect place.

The Unique Benefits of this Condominium

We love the fact that there is a reef in front of the Mahana which means that to access the water, you would have to go 100 yards in either direction. This keeps the beach activity and noise in front of our condo down to a minimum. There is boardwalk that starts just south of our building that goes all the way to the Hyatt Hotel which about 2.5 miles. What a wonderful walk to get coffee or "earn" your lunch at the many great places in Kaanapali. BTW, we also continue walking south to Lahaina. The Maui bus system is great and we can take a return bus ride that drops us off next to Kaanapali Shores.

    • We absolutely LOVED our stay...both times! We couldn't believe the views and how close to the ocean we were. We opened up the sliding doors and let the ocean lull us to sleep each night and wake us each morning. We also had a ringside seat to watch the whales frolic from the floor to ceiling windows while sipping tea. As if the oceanfront and whales weren't enough, the condo itself was one of the most beautiful we've stayed in. Coming to Maui is a great experience, staying at the penthouse at the Mahana during your visit will probably make your experience one of your top most memorable vacations...one that you'll want to repeat again and again. Patsy and Rod McLean P.S. The last day we were there in April and literally packing and taking our bags to the car, a whale and baby breached 9 times in a row as if to say good-bye and come back soon. I'm sure we will!

    • Our trip to Maui was made all the more special by the amazing furnishings of the condo. The bed was of high quality and the furnishings top notch. Everything from the furniture to the cook ware was in excellent condition and even the small things like plenty of high quality towels made the stay that more pleasant. I would absolutely come back to Maui and stay at this condo.

    • This condo was absolutely bueatiful and in excellent condition, very clean. My wife and I come to Maui every year and we discovered this condo for the first time and couldn't have asked for better. The kitchen is first rate, the bed very comfortable, the atmoshpere of the complex relaxing. The condo has air conditioning but we found ourselves not using it. The trade winds come up throughout the day and the nights are very comfortable. We came to stay at the very end of the whale watching season yet I was able to still observe two or three whales each morning we were there. The views are spectaclar. We would definately stay again and would reccommend this condo to everyone. The owners are wonderful people who are very easy to work with and comne through on their side 100%.

      Aloha Ralph and Patti. We are so happy that you enjoyed our condo. We look forward to your next visit. Kathy and Michael

    • We just returned from staying in this incredible condo in Maui -- would recommend it to anyone seeking a beachfront property with beauty, tranquility, whale-watching, sunsets and the sound of rushing waves ... it just doesn't get any better than this! You are so close to the water that you feel like you are on a cruiseship -- only with much more personal space! We loved it!

    • The most spectacular views anywhere. We fell asleep every night listening to the surf breaking on the shore. Kathy and Michael have a beautiful property located in a lovely area, richly appointed with all the comforts of home and then some. It's as close to perfect a place to spend 7 days as I can imagine, and we will very likely stay there again....

    • Based on the pictures and information on the website for Mahana #1216 we had high expectations. When we arrived in Maui our expectations were exceeded. The condo was perfect. Great amenities, uncrowded pool, easy parking, and very close to the attractions we wanted. The view from the lanai can not be beat. We even saw pods of dolphins swimming by several days we were there. We hope to come back soon. Thank you very much Kathy.

      Aloha Mark and Nancy, and thank you for sending the photo tour of your vacation. You two saw the most wonderful sites, had great adventures and ate at some of our favorite restaurants.

    • This condo is incredible. The view unbeatable. The accommodations were perfect and we couldn't have asked for more. If we ever get a change to go back to Maui, I wouldn't stay anywhere else!

      Thank you for sharing this awesome place! Carol and I really enjoyed the views and this real paradise. Our trip was a celebration of my retiring after 35 years in education. It was more wonderful than we ever imagined. We must go back to winter in Ohio but our stay here will be in our memories for many years to come. We hope to be able to return one day.
