In a quiet neighborhood near one of the best beaches on Maui your tropical home-away-from-home awaits you. Here, you'll wake up to birds singing, and the sweet scent of exotic flowers. The sound of waves lapping on Charley Young's Beach beckons you for a short stroll down to the sea to swim and sun bathe on what has been called the best beach on Maui. On a 1/4 acre of lush tropical landscaping in South Kihei lies exotic, tropical bliss; just 100 yards away is Charley Young Beach on the North end Kamaole Beach I.

After a short walk down to the ocean you'll find warm clear water to snorkel in where crabs, turtles and tropical fish await your discovery. Then enjoy lunch at one of the many restaurants like Maui Tacos or KKO Restaurant across the street from the beach. After lunch you may stop and enjoy some shaved ice for dessert or shop at one the many stores you'll pass on the way home. The weather in Kihei is almost always sunny with a nice breeze to cool you off. You will find golf, surfing, wind surfing, body boarding, and great shopping and dining just a stone's throw away.

Vacation Rentals On Maui is the creation of Troy and Susan McCasland of San Diego, California. It is a collection of top-quality vacation rental properties in the centrally located town of Kihei. And, like the beautiful island of Maui itself, each McCasland property is very special indeed.

There are two main properties in the group. There is the Charley Young Beach House and the Executive house. In addition to their main living areas, the Charley Young House and the Executive House have attached, fully-equipped, one-bedroom condos with futon sleep-sofas in their living-rooms. Here's how things break down:

The property featured in this listing is the Kihei Penthouse a brand new, private, luxury 3 bedroom, 2 bath home on a 1/4 acre accross the street from Charley Young Beach (100 Yards). It has high vaulted ceilings, air conditioning, high speed Internet, TV's in most every room, washer dryer a fully equipped modern kitchen, and 2 car garge with remote. The property is located near the beach, shopping, dining and in an apartment zoned location near visitor designated area surrounded by condos, and other vacation rentals.

After acquiring these properties in December of 2003, Susan spent the next 6 weeks searching the Island for everything she would need to equip our dream home with every modern convenience imaginable. With a penchant for interior design, Susan selected a Tommy Bahamas theme and shopped till she dropped everyday for 6 weeks. She found solid teak furniture from a place in Kahului called the Container Store where imported hand crafted furniture from the island of Bali adorns every room.

For bedding she picked the best mattresses money could buy and topped them with 300-thread count Egyptian designer sheets and soft pillows that even a princess would applaud. Floral bedspreads and colorful local art adorn every bedroom. For electronics we supplied TV's, Alarm clock radios, and telephones for just about every room in the house. The living room has a CD stereo and DVD player.

Located on the southwest coast of Maui, between Waikapu and Wailea, Kihei offers easy access to eight sandy beaches where you can swim, boogie board, surf, snorkel, and point up your tan nearly 365 days of the year. (Not for nothing is this charming town known as Sunny Kihei.) There's also fantastic ocean kayaking, and whale watching (in season), and Kihei has some of the best wind surfing beaches in Hawaii

Kihei's central location means that everything is just a short drive away, whether it's the tropical paradise that is Hana, with its rugged coastline and spectacular waterfalls or the tourist attractions and shopping in Lahaina. Of course, Kihei itself offers so many great food and fresh fish stores, great shopping, and great entertainment options that you may never feel the urge to stray very far afield. In all, Kihei gives its visitors an ideal combination of relaxed island life and all the benefits of "civilization".

It is worth noting that you can't take great beaches for granted on Maui. Many are silty, cloudy, or rocky and many are pounded by waves too large for safe family swimming. That's why it is wonderful that many of the McCasland Vacation Rentals On Maui rental properties are located within 100 yards of the Charley Young Beach, which is the local name for Kamaole Beach Park 1. (In their book Maui Revealed, authors Andrew Doughty and Harriet Friedman call the Charley Young Beach one of the very best beaches on Maui!)

Flexibility, convenience, and above-all quality are just some of the things that make the Vacation Rentals On Maui/McCasland properties special. But the most important element is the team of Troy and Susan McCasland themselves.

They have long been in love with Maui, and with Kihei, and they want to do all that they can to make sure that everyone who rents one of their properties has the same wonderful experiences they have enjoyed over the years.
