The condo was beautiful. There is a gorgeous view of the beach from both the downstairs (great room) and from the king sized bed upstairs. We enjoyed ourselves emorously.

The condo was large and comfortable, and we were so pleased to be able to use the beach chairs, towels, and coolers for our trips around the island. The grounds were lovely and well-maintained, and the beach IS really steps away. We also liked the central location, an easy base to travel to the different parts of the island. We'll definitely return.

The condo was amazing and had great views! It was the perfect place to come back to at the end of a long day of exploring and shopping! the beach gear was awesome to have. We loved having the beach so close, we were there almost everyday. We wish we could have stayed longer. We will definitely have to come back. Thank you again for everthing. We had an amazing time and are so glad we got to stay at this amazing condo!

Thank you so much for allowing us to stay in your beautiful condo for our 1st trip to Hawaii! The view was spectacular and it was wonderful to have the beach just a few steps away! We were looking for a nice, relaxing time...and that is just what we got! The condo had everything (and more!) That we were looking for and it felt just like home! Would definitely stay here again in the future. Thanks again for everything!

Thank you so very much for giving us such a beautiful place to stay! the condo was perfect in everyway! We absolutely loved Maui and hope we can come back again. We loved snorkeling Molokini and even out on our own beach! :-). The road to Hana wasn't as scary as the road past Lahaina. Wished we would've seen Paia sooner, cute little town. Ate & shopped way to much!!! Make sure to see as much of the island as possible, it's amazing how different it is around every corner. Aloha & Mahalo.

It feels so welcoming and I was so grateful for all the kids sand toys and beach gear for us. I loved the accents and aloha spirit here. The kitchen was equipped with everything we needed and more. So loved our vacation here. We had an absolutely blissful time. The beach , the sunrises are forever memorable. Truely grateful. I love this place, would definitely come back.

Our "Staycation" here was amazing! There are no words to explain how immaculate this unit was. Thank you Stephanie for accommodating us at the last minute. Unfortunately we had to work and the kids had school so we didn't spend too much time her, but when we did, it was just like home. You guys have thought of everything. Never have we stayed at someplace that is so well equipped. We have decided that we want to make this our Bi-yearly staycation place!!! A Hui Hou!

What a wonderful place to stay! the condo is great and feels like home. We liked being centrally located and can easily travel to Lahaina or Kihei, Wailea & Makena. I was worried that 10 days would be to long to vacation, but found that 10 days is perfect. We have 4 in our group-myself, my husband our 17 year old daughter and her 17 year old friend. The condo was roomy enough for the 4 of us and served as a great home base. We walked the beach daily, collected shells.

This condo was fabulous! My husband and I traveled Novemember1-10th bringing our 17 year old daughter and her friend with us. This was our daughters first visit to the islands and she fell in live with island living. The condo was comfortable and conveniently located to both ends of the island. We loved our beach where we spent much of out time. The gounds were beautiful and the pool was nice and quiet. This was the first 10 day vacation I have taken, and I wasn't sure I could do it-I tend to get ansy and have a hard time slowing down, but I was not ready to leave 10 days later. I am looking forward to another 10 days this Fall. I highly recommend Makani A Kai~Unit B-8

We cannot say how much we appreciated our stay here! We visited Haleakala, Hana, Makena State Park (beautiful water colors!) and are going out by driving the West Maui loop today. We also enjoyed the Pacific Whale Foundation's Sunset Dinner Cruise, Old Lahaina Luau, Snorkeling Molokini, and we guys did our first ever scuba dive. We have been moved by the beauty that is Maui, and I believe long after other memories fade, our wonderful experiences here will remain fresh in our minds. Thank you for providing such a wonderful place for these memories!

June 19, 2011 This condo is the coziest place on earth!! Many people might find this place quite small, but I find this place perfect. It is so well decorated and it is in the most relaxing place you can think of! They supply everything you need except quarters for laundry and food to eat. Also keep in mind that the floor board may not be so sound-proof so remember not to stomp around. If you are craving shave ice go to yelp.com or yelp on your iphone or mobile device, look up "Annie's Shaved ice' and if you wanna surf go to the "Royal Surf Acadamy" :-) !! Enjoy!!

We stayed in Hale Moma 8 nights during March 2011. From our arrival to our departure we had nothing but an excellent experience in this condo. The furnishings, beds, kitchenwares, were all top quality, with no detail overlooked. The many "extras" gave the condo a very personal touch. I mean the items that are not necessarily provided when one rents a condo. Items like, great quality folding beach chairs, boogie board, large beach towels, excellent guide books, fast internet, and many more. We never tried the A/C, since the breezes flowed through the unit quite nicely, with the help of ceiling fans in most rooms. The BBQ gas grills were maintained in a spotless condition, every day. Of course, everything in and out was spotless. The pool, which no one seemed to use, was also kept perfectly clean. We loved long walks on the beach each morning. I was surprised at how deserted it was nearly all of the time. This is a great location, if you want to be out of the tourist craziness of Kihei and Lahaina. The jaunt over to Kahului and Wailuku was just a few minutes, so, from this location, we could take advantage of some of the more "off the tourist circuit" restaurants and shopping. This property is very professionally maintained and managed. I would recommend it to anyone, except those seeking lots of action out the door. This is a quiet complex; which was just what we were looking for!

Dear Stephanie, All the little details made us feel so welcome: Beach chairs, towels and umbrella, cooler and ice packs, pen and note pad, the extra towels for the dirty jobs, etc. I have rented all over the world and rarely is it so well thought of. So thank you for that! The location is perfect, near shops, restaurants, the beach at our door, the grass and chairs....Perfect! We had a relaxing time. It was a proper vacation. If we come back to Hawaii next year, we plan on coming here 2 weeks instead of one (skip the Big Island all together). We're off to Oahu next. We hope its going to be just as nice (we have our doubts). :-) Merci! :-) Christine, Patrick and Merivelle - Quebec, Canada

Dear Stephanie, Many times we've heard that Hawaii is a paradise on earth. Frankly speaking it was very hard to believe for us. Thanks to your fabulous condo we've decided that it's true. We loved our stay here! We are still going on to Kauai and Big Island, but we aren't sure if we will ever find such a good place as this. It made us feel welcome and like at home. We even found ourselves wishing that we could stay here longer! Thank you again for having us and showing us what a paradise on earth feels like. Mahalo, Pomorski Family from Poland.

What a wonderful internet find! The condo was truly a home away from home on our stop-over on Maui after three years in Seol, South Korea, in route to the USA. The amenities in the condo, the location, & the hospitality shown by Stephanie & Ron, The resident manager made this the perfect vacation. Our favorites included " Beach Bums" (restaurant bar across from the local marina), Kaanapali Beach (by the Sheraton Hotel), Big Beach, an afternoon in the Iao Valley (short hike, paved paths, beautiful scenery & views), and a visit to the National Marine Sanctuary to hear about the Humpback Whale (in Kihei, lectures on Tuesdays & Thursdays at 11:00 a.m.) We are so happy to have found Makani A Kai & look forward to many return visits.

TAKEN FROM THE IN-HOUSE GUEST BOOK: Dear Nora and Dennis, We all thoroughly enjoyed our visit to your condo. Brooklynn had difficult decisions to make...did she want to go swimming or build sand castles? Life is difficult for a two year old. The trade winds kept it cool enough to sleep well. We enjoyed just relaxing as well as sight seeing. The aquarium was fascinating for Brooklynn. the younger set went "ziplining" and the elders met friends at the golf course for lunch. Something for everyone. We had both great together times and solitude. Stephanie is great!! Much Love, The Hoss Five.

We have been amazed by the landscapes, the incredibly narrow routes, the breathtaking views etc.Hiking and snorkeling Maui was really exciting. I would say that this island offers the largest variety of things to see and things to do. I can't tell how excited I was when I found this amazing condo on the internet. This place is the nicest place we have rented so far in the world. This is just what we needed...and more. Mahalo!!! Francois, Luc, Chantal

This is a very nice place to stay. The condos are grouped in four units each which gives it an intimate feel, not like the big resorts. The location is central and has easy access to the rest of the island. The Ocean Center is close and the beaches are great.
