With whale-watching, sunsets, and swaying palm trees in between, this top-floor, one-bedroom unit has one of the best views in South Kihei. Located at the back of the complex, it is high up and has no street noise--only the rhythm of the surf washing up on beautiful Kamaole II Beach, just in front of the complex and a quick walk down the lushly landscaped drive. Safe for kids and novice swimmers, and one of only three life-guarded swimming beaches in Kihei, this pristine stretch of sand is backed by a park with restrooms and showers, and cradled by rocky points on either side where snorkelers may swim with tropical fish and sea turtles.
The unit's spectacular Western view encompasses the West Maui mountains, the islands of Lanai, Kahoolawe and Molokini, and continues on southward to the palms and golf courses of Wailea. Sunset is the event of the day year-around; from the comfortable swivel chairs at the bistro table on the lanai you will enjoy a clear view of the sun sinking into the Pacific, as well as the sounds of the conch-blowers and the whisper of the palm fronds as evening falls.
But here's the best part! The comfortable unit has recently undergone a high-end update, including solid maple cabinets, slab granite countertops with tile backsplash, new appliances, new furniture, carpets and decor, a queen Beautyrest bed in the bedroom plus queen sofa sleeper in the living room. Also included are a completely outfitted gourmet kitchen, computer desk with complimentary high-speed wireless internet access for your laptop, and free long distance calling to the Mainland and Canada. There's a flat screen TV/DVD, plus stereo and CD player, and even original artwork.
Beach chairs and beach towels, coolers and other fun amenities are provided for your convenience, as are all necessary linens and table decor.
Less than one block away is a wide selection of restaurants, shops, and small grocery stores--no need to get in your car several times a day. Whether you are looking for romance, adventure, or just relaxation, you will love the affordability, the location, and the tropical ambiance of this superb accommodation.

Although this review is somewhat tardy, it is still accurate. This unit is great. Extremely clean, well appointed kitchen (the only thing lacking were old cloths for cleaning the bathroom/dusting unit etc., I didn't want to use the disclothes or faceclothes, so I bought some sponges at the grocery store and this worked fine) The bed is one of the most comfortable that we have ever slept in. Awesome views, location can't be beat. It's within walking distance to great beaches, dining, and shopping. A very short drive to walk the Wailea sea wall which I highly recommend. The pictures of the unit are exactly correct, but don't truly convey how wonderful the unit really is. Jeanne is a great person to deal with. I had hinted/suggested that she upgrade the TV to a new flat panel screen. She accomodated our wish in time for our stay. She answered all my questions right away and made me feel appreciated. We won't hesitate to say here again and highly recommond this unit to anyone. If you're hesitating on this one....don't, you won't be sorry.Recommended for: Sightseeing, age 55+, romantic getaway, tourists without a car.

I LOVED my top floor unit D610 at the Kihei Akahi! Was treated to fabulous sunset views, breezes, and really enjoyed the modern kitchen with beautiful touches. The Kihei location was super for easy access snorkeling and paddleboarding at Kam I & II, and the owners provided nearly everything a visitor would need. Great pool/grill access too on property. Would definitely recommend for anyone looking for a nice place in the area.Recommended for: Sightseeing, age 55+, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway, tourists without a car.

Just as all of the other reviews indicate, the unit is great! Jeanne made everything so effortless and her cozy unit is stocked with anything and everything you might need on a trip- even a few extra blankets to take for warmth on our trip to see the sunrise at Haleakala! We loved the location and complex- if you are looking for a low-key, well-appointed place to stay, this is it.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, sightseeing, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, families with young children.

We had the fotunate opportunity of spending a week in the wonderful accomodation. It exceeded our expectations. The unit with its upgrades made our stay most comfortable. The breeze generated through the window design provided a very pleasant temperature. In addition, the view from the balcony was magnificent. The proximity to the beach was great. We would definately return to this location in the future.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, sightseeing, families with young children, tourists without a car.

From early morning coffee time on the lanai (listening to the birds and looking out at the outstanding view), to walking on the beach, playing in the surf, and ending our day watching the sun set while enjoying a glass of wine with a fine bbq'ed meal...our stay at this property was great! The owner provides all the amenities you'll need for a pleasant stay. From a well stocked kitchen, to everything that you'll need for a day at the beach....cooler, beach chairs, mats and towels. This condo is tastefully decorated, well maintained, and clean. We would recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing holiday in beautiful Kihei, Maui.Recommended for: Sightseeing, age 55+, romantic getaway.

Our stay at this property was wonderful! This was one of the best units we have stayed at in this complex. The owner has done a wonderful job of decorating and maintaining this gorgeous unit. The view is spectacular and we spent most of our two weeks on the lanai enjoying the weather and the view. The location is superb -- close to the beach, shopping, restaurants. We thank the owner for sharing this gorgeous property with us and hope to once again get back to use this condo in the next couple of years. We have already recommended it to friends.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 2/3

Owner info
Year Purchased: 1991
About the owner: That's me welcoming my grandaughter on her second visit to Maui, an island with a good bit of my family's history intertwined. When my folks started coming to Hawaii in the 'fifties, they visited each island, then narrowed it to each location on Maui, and ended up in Kihei, just the best! Best access, best beaches, best weather, and nicest people. So when I decided I had to have a place of my own, they had done all the work for me! I have loved this location and my sweet condo with its large view for nearly 20 years now, remodeled it twice, and have a harder time every year dragging myself back to Seattle where my job is. But if I never left, I wouldn't be able to share it with all the wonderful guests I've welcomed over the years. I hope you will join them!
Why the Owner Chose Kihei Akahi:
It's simply 'no ka oi' - the best! Cleanest ocean water on Maui (no agriculture upcountry), sweetest outlook due west with outlying islands, best whale-watching, and safest swimming beaches in Kihei. Two-block walk to family restaurants and shops, easy access to Kahului and airport.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo:
I love to be outdoors--whether it's hiking, swimming, suntanning, or watching sunsets. I hike across Haleakala every year (to make sure I can still do it!) and tell my guests about other wonderful places to explore in my guest book. I think there can't be more lovely nor safer swimming beaches than the Kamaole Beaches--no rocks, gentle surf, water as clear as glass and as caressing as silk. And I make new friends down around the pool and barbecue grills every time I visit, but I can always retreat to the peaceful surroundings of my top-floor eyrie to watch the sunset and comtemplate the beauty of this magical island.
