  This condo is excellent in every way! Location Location Location! Not to mention the interior, just as the pictures show - it was warm and inviting (the couch isn't real comfortable), but really - how much time are you going to spend inside?. The Kihei Akahi complex is nice, clean and quiet. Daniel's condo has a great ocean view from the lanai. Just steps from one of the 2 swimming pools, and a few more steps to Kam 2 beach! Other than the swap meet on Saturday and a Costco run,I didn't really need to rent a car.... unless of course you want to see more of the island, would be the only reason to do so. Daniel was a pleasure to work with too!

  Owner response: Mahalo Roxanne, Thanks for the kind words, and so pleased you found things as advertised. I keep making improvements to it, and can only visit long enough to get more work done. I will be able for the first time to actually stay in it when it is finished for once, this July. I can't wait! Anyway, it was a joy dealing with you also, and I hope you can make it again soon. Who knows what it'll have next time! Thanks for all . . . Aloha, Daniel

  This was my 10th visit to Maui and my 3rd stay at the Kihei Akahi. Daniel's place is one of the nicest condo's in the building, just newly renovated. Everything was very clean, nice fluffy towels, comfy bed, lots of kitchen amenities, beach gear, wireless wi-fi and the view was fabulous. We enjoyed the close proximity to one of the best beaches in Maui right across the street as well as walking distance to the many restaurants & shops. The complex is very well maintained and quiet. Daniel was excellent to deal with and reliable (his cleaning lady Leeann was really nice as well). I would highly recommend Daniel's condo and look forward to our next stay. Attractions we would recommend are biking down Haleakala after watching the sunrise (great experience!), Big Beach (Makena) - one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, snorkeling at the many well known spots, Lahaina for shopping & great restaurants, road to Hana - leave early, take your time, take lots of pictures, must sees - bamboo forest, seven sacred pools and the drive home on the back road. Mahalo!

  Owner response: Hi Elinor, Thanks for taking the time to let me people know about my home. Sounds like you had a great time and took in some of the finest things SW Maui has to offer. Biking down Haleakala is indeed awesome. There's video of that on my VRBO page. Thanks for being great guests and I do hope we can do it all over again next year. You were a pleasure to deal with also. Mahalo, Daniel

  Thank you so much Daniel, the place was perfect. We came to Maui in May and stayed at a hotel, this time around we stayed at your condo and it was way better. It felt like home, we had everything we needed within a 2 minute walk (ie food + beer). The condo was stocked with everything else.. It made our vacation so easy and that much more enjoyable. The beach is a 1 minute walk away and we spent most of our mornings there and surfed Cove Park in the afternoons. I searched and searched for the perfect condo and this is it. We will be coming back 100%. We had freinds staying in other condos in these buildings, and some around town so we saw many of them and still think yours was the best. Thanks again for being so accommodating! Hope to be back as soon as possible. btw the sunset view from the condo is A++

  Owner response: Andrew, Thanks for another great review. Being on Maui with 40 family members for a wedding, gave you many opportunities to see other condos. Thanks for thinking mine was the best of them all. Glad you enjoyed the location and I too love the sunsets from the lanai. I do hope you return to Maui one day soon. Please do look me up again. Mahalo, Daniel

  This condo is in the best part of Kihei, just a walk across the street to the most awesome beaches (Kamaole I, II, III.) Daniel has provided great beach chairs, mats, and towels, boogie boards, a cooler, and even some toys for younger or young at heart guests. When the wind kicked up at the beach we spent time at one of the 2 pools. The unit is just as the pictures show. Kitchen stocked very nicely for cooking and eating. Plenty of towels and a washer and dryer in the unit is great. Bag of laundry soap provided at check-in a nice touch. Wireless wi-fi was installed while we were there, love to sit on the lanai and be able to use my wireless devices. Condo is close to several places to eat within walking distance. Fred's mexican place right next door is very good. We mostly ate at the condo. One of my favorite things to do is to watch the turltes at the beach. They are facinating to just sit and watch in the water at one of the rocky areas at either end of the beach. You can also snorkle to get a closer look at them and beautiful fish in the same area. We also saw some stingrays in the water. Drive up to Haleakala was full of beautiful views, highly reccomend doing that drive. We watched the sunset on the way down. If you like to walk on the beach this is a great area. You can walk from beach to beach over paths at each end and walk a longgggg way on nice flat sandy beaches. Daniel was sure to let us know we could contact him if we needed anything while we were there. Had a wonderful time and we were sad to leave.

  Owner response: Aloha Kirsten, Couldn't have said it better myself. Thanks for mentioning the new wi-fi addition. I added it to all 3 of my units while I was at it. I appreciate you mentioning some of the things most people haven't noted, like the great hiking path right in front of the complex and abundant marine-life, right across the street. So glad you and the girls had a blast, and do hope you can return again soon. Thanks for sharing the great memories with everyone. Mahalo . . . Daniel

  I would highly recommend this property, I've been going to Hawaii for years and this is one of the best condo units I've stayed in and is afforable for a family traveling on budget like my family. The unit is very nicely furnished, sleeps 4 comfortably and has a great oceanview . The unit is 1 block from one of the best beaches in Kihei, Maui the unit comes fully outfitted with all the beach and pool items needed including chairs, umbrella and beach mats and lots of towels, the pool area is great and has a two great grills as well. The unit comes with a full kitchen with lots of dishes and pans for those who don't want to dine out every night, and I almost fortgot a washer and dryer in the unit as well with soap provided at the office front desk can you beat that. My family had a great time and we plan on coming back again and again on are trip to Hawaii I highly recommend this unit. Aloha Frank

  Owner response: Frank, So pleased to hear from another happy traveler. Glad you enjoyed all the amenities, and made the most of your trip. Very cool that you rented two units from me on the same floor, for the rest of your family. I just added a third studio that will be posted soon, if your family keeps expanding. Thanks for the great review, and as always . . . you are welcome back ANYtime. Mahalo, Daniel

  My husband and I rented this unit from May 8th to May 22nd for my awesome wedding photographers. We had a chance to check out their unit during their stay and they absolutely loved this condo! It was well equipped with kitchen supplies, washer, dryer, and even boogie boards. I can't say enough about how great the location is, the beach is right across the street, the shops and restaurants are a walk away. They were so happy with the unit and we'll definitely be staying here again. Mahalo Daniel for making my wedding photographers/family members stay such a wonderful one! Thank you for being such a pleasure to deal with as well! Nghia & Trish send their Thank you's!We will definitely be in touch! We can't wait for our next Maui get a way! Mahalo from Canada, Kim & Ken

  Owner response: Kim, Ken, Nghia, & Trish, Thanks for another outstanding review. So glad your wedding went off well. What an amazing place to have it! Maui truly IS the Wedding Capitol of the World. I saw the trailer for your wedding. AWESOME! Nghia did a great job. I was happy to be a tiny part in your happiness while on Maui, though one would be hard-pressed to NOT have a great time here. Yes, I love the Kihei Akahi Complex too. If one didn't plan on sight-seeing, they really could get by without a car, but of course there are SO many great things and places to see, that I'd have to recommend a car if it's in the budget. Well thanks again for everything, and DO come back and visit again when Maui summons you. Mahalo! Daniel

  The condo is fantastic with its location and vacation-type feeling after Daniel's interior decorating spree! The one minute walk to the beach, Fred's and 808 Bistro was soooo tiring it encourages further "hydration!" While the condo and location are great, Daniel's ability to deliver all the small details to make your holiday virtually stress-free was incredible. Its like staying at a 5 star hotel and having a travel agent who bends over backwards for you to ensure your stay is memorable. Thanks, Daniel...we will call again!!

  Owner response: Wow! Unbelievable review! It makes me extremely happy to get this review, 2 months after your stay. That means the lasting memories of Maui are lingering still. As it should be. Thanks Brian and Leigh for passing on your experience to others. There are tons of choices out there, so many will appreciate you helping them cut to the chase. Yes, you were amazing guests, and I do hope you will come visit Maui again, and again. Mahalo! Daniel

  We stayed for 15 days in early March. The condo was located in the very best part of Kihei - across from the best beach for tanning, swimming, snorkelling (biggest fish and we saw turtles) and boogie boarding. Close to many restaurants - Cafe O'lei, Fred's, Moose's and Bistro 808. Close to shopping, incredible cinnamon buns and ice cream. The condo was well situated for an unobstructed view of the ocean and sunsets while it was just a short walk to the pool and barbeques. We had a very comfortable and well appointed condo with a well stocked kitchen (utensils, pots and pans, etc.) and updated decor. Our owner, Daniel, had all the beach amenities you would need from beach chairs, beach towels, beach umbrellas and pool noodles. Before we arrived Daniel sent us valuable information about the condo, the condo development, the surrounding area - restaurants, nightlife, drives. We will definitely rent this condo again - hopefully next year - and would not hesitate to recommend it to our family and friends. It is all about location, location, location

  Owner response: Art, Thanks for another great review. Canadians ROCK! I really appreciate you commenting on all the finer points that I try to incorporate into the experience as a whole. I guess it's sort of the "Field of Dreams" movie theory of "If you build it, they will come". I also appreciate you mentioning the "before and after" attention I love to give to my guests. Many people mention it, and I think it assures future guests that they will surely receive the same. Afterall . . . we've all worked hard all year. Don't we deserve some special attention when we temporarily relocate to paradise? The answer of course is, yes, we most certainly do. Thanks again, and do pass the word to everyone looking to relax and let the Maui Tradewinds whisk away their troubles. Mahalo Art! Daniel

  We stayed from January 16-21st, 2012. This was our first time renting a condo and i'm pretty sure we will never return to a hotel/resort again. Coming from Southern Ontario, you might think that we would be happy with anything warm in January but we are both pretty picky. The location was perfect. Directly accross from the beach...it was easy to load up all the beach gear (which was so nicely provided) and walk over. We loved the beach chairs....no crappy ones here - awesome Tommy Bahama ones with coolers built in! The beach was beautiful, nothing but perfect swimming. The water was crystal clear and there was no coral to watch for or stub your toes on. Just up the beach there were lots of peole snorkelling too. Kihei was perfect for us too. I had read a lot of travel books that knocked Kihei for it's strip malls. I had a completely different impression...yes there was strip malls but there was something for everyone. Great restaurants for every taste and buget, awesome happy hours and more than enough shopping/activites to keep us busy . We met more Canadians than Americans which we were surpised about but found that everyone was on the same path.......super friendly and wanting to relax. On to the Condo.......I think our expectations will never be exceeded like this again. We did not rent a condo, we rented a home! Fluffy towels, awesome linens, every beach gear item you could wish for, laundry and it really nicely decorated. I loved the welcome goodies, the advice on where to go to eat and explore and the friendly vibe from the entire condo complex. It was super clean, i loved there was extra beach towels and linens and cooking was a treat with a fully stocked kitchen. We watched the sunset each night from the patio and slept like babies in the comfy bed. We left Kihei and the condo feeling like we had made a friend. Daniel was easy to deal with, prompt on responses and was a pro at dealing with someone as overly orgainized as me. A couple of our favourite things included...Calamari tacos at Freds on Tuesday's, The Tiki Louge and Fat Daddy's smoke house at the triangle and Sushi and Asian ribs during happy hour at the Five palms, Thank you so much for the awesome time and welcoming us into your condo - it really did feel like we were staying at a friends place!....we are already planning the next vacation and this will be our first choice for town and Condo on Maui! Cheers!

  Owner response: Aloha Heather, Wow . . you should write travel brochures for a living! Thanks so much for the stunning review. You just made me want to stay there again, myself! Thanks for appreciating all the finer details, and letting future travelers know what they can expect. You feel exactly the same way I do about Kihei and the Kihei Akahi complex. You made the entire process so easy from start to finish and your organizational skills were admirable. I do hope you'll return again and again. I've had nothing but great experiences from Canadians, so do pass the word. Mahalo, Daniel

  My husband and I had a great week in sunny Maui as an escape from winter temps at home in Unalaska/Dutch Harbor, Alaska. We loved the condo--it was comfy, nicely decorated, had free wifi and was close to everything! We could walk to the beach and to shopping and restaurants nearby, while other conveniences were a quick drive down the road. We enjoyed lots of sights as well as just relaxing and soaking up the sunshine. We'd recommend visiting the the Ali'i Kuna lavender farm in addition to the typical tourist spots such as Haleakala. The onsite property managers were very friendly and helpful and the owner was great in communicating with us before and during our stay there. All in all, a fabulous experience and highly recommended! Thanks, Daniel!

  Owner response: Aloha Jane and Rich. Thanks for the great review! You both were awesome guests. Glad you had a great time and thanks also for mentioning some more of the great things available to do on Maui. I can relate to the welcome weather contrast, when coming from Alaska. If you're like me, you find it difficult to leave. Thanks again, and I do hope you'll return again next year. Mahalo, Daniel
