Beachfront paradise! Enjoy whale watching and beautiful sunsets from your lanai and the beautiful beach in front of Kanai A Nalu. Your completely remodeled Maui "home-away-from-home" has all of the comforts you need to make your island vacation unforgettable! Centrally located, this condominium is perfect for couples or families!

Watch the boats as they sail into Maalaea Harbor. Enjoy Maui's #1 tourist attraction-the Maui Ocean Center, shops, and restaurants at the end of the street! This location is a great place for people who like to snorkel, dive, fish, and sail, or for those who like to keep their feet on land while enjoying a fabulous ocean view! Beautiful Sugar Beach stretches to the east for over three miles in front of the 700 acre Kealia Nature Preserve for romantic sunset walks! Even the locals come here for boogie boarding and beginning surfing. For the golf fan, Sandalwood, Waikapu, Maui and Lani and Elleair (Silversword) are all within a few minutes!

The view is better from the top! Our fourth-floor, two-bedroom, two-bath unit has a king-size bed in the master bedroom with attached bath, and two twins that can be made into another king in the second, newly painted, bedroom. The brand new couch is a queen-size sleeper for an additional two guests and has a real 6" innerspring mattress. Click on the link to our owner's website below to view the layout of the condo.

Our lanai has an absolutely spectacular view of the ocean. In the winter months the humpback whales can be seen playing in the warm waters! Year round it's a wonderful place to enjoy your breakfast or simply relax, watching and listening to the sound of the surf! Inside, the condo has been remodeled from floor to ceiling with porcelain tile and wood floors. New cabinets and Corian countertops complete the look in the kitchen with fresh paint, new stove and microwave as well. The bathrooms are a masterpiece in tile. Truly a vacation place to return to!

When you want to get to other parts of the island, the tourist areas of Wailea and Lahaina are only 15 miles away and Kahului and the airport are only 10 minutes down the road.

  • Wonderful vacation with outstanding amenities-great value! We hope to be back again next year with more family. The beds were ooh so comfy and we loved sitting on the Lanai and having coffee and morning breakfast and watching the ocean. The aquarium was awesome! We enjoyed the beaches and beautiful landscapes, resting and relaxing. We loved eating at Beach Bums. The food was excellent, the waitstaff outstanding and friendly and you could sit outside and watch the boats in the harbor and see the ocean. Just down the street from the condo-outstanding!

  • Made our first trip to Maui in September and stayed at this condo on the recommendation of a friend. Our week in Maui lived up to all the positive reviews thanks in large to what this condo had to offer. Clean and modern interior, great view from the lanai, restaraunts within walking distance, located directly on the beach and conveniently positioned to main attractions on the central, western and southern side of the island. All these attributes yet on a quiet dead-end street and sitting directly on Sugar Beach that offers an unexpected sense of privacy. My wife and I have set a goal of returning very soon for reasons noted above. Oh, I almost forgot to mention that we could hear the sound of the waves from the masterbedroom during the night. This is paradise! Winston & Lily

  • We are heading back to this incredible vacation condo in March (2009)for our second visit. Not much to say that hasn't already been said. This is first class from the owners to the comfort of home away from home. Everything you'd want when experiencing Hawaii. Whale watching, fishing, surfing, resturaunts, beach, etc. We can't wait! :)

  • We stayed here for 19 days in March. It was probably one of the best holidays we have gone on as a family. The beach is perfect to go for long walks on. We were able to watch the whales from our lanai. The pool and grounds are beautiful and the condo was perfect. Everything we needed was there. Another nice thing about this location is how handy it is to everywhere on the island. It does not take long to get anywhere and shopping is close by. We are already planning on going back and will definitely stay in this unit.

  • Upon arrival we saw that we were very close to the water. When we got into the condo I went straight to the lanai and was delighted at the spectacular view. We could not have asked for a better place to stay. The condo had so many add ons that they dont tell you about. Cooler, boogey boards, beach towels and many other items. I would highly recommend this unit. Thanks again for the great stay.

  • We just returned from two wonderful weeks in this lovely condo. Very nicely decorated - loved the ceramic tile. It had everything we needed plus things we didn't think about. We used the cooler everyday and washer/dryer was a must. We (Lin and Lorraine and our friend's Ken and Donna) took in a lot of activities (Biked down Haleakala, Shark Dive at Maui Ocean Centre, trip over to Pearl Harbour were the three highlights) and probably spent about 2 hours total at the pool (our loss). Whales!!!! I forgot the whales - that was fabulous -only had one set of binoculars, so we fought over them. We loved the fact that Maalaea Bay is so centrally located and the condo itself got the afternoon sun. We would loved to return again and definately recommend it. Thanks!!!!

  • Elizabeth and i weregreeted by Mike and Lynette and the kids upon arrival and what an immaculate reception it was. The temp was in the low 80's and the breeze was just enough to keep us cool. Our kids were so excited, they would not sit still for a minute. We had waited for 3.5 years for this trip and inthe first night we had realized we should have done this trip every year since moving to Edwards. The room was spotless and the condo grounds ere lush, green and beautiful. We loved the closeness of the private beach and the whales within 1/2 mile of our condo. The view was perfect enough to allow the kids to play in the pool or on the beach while some of the family relaxed on the lanai. We did tour other parts of the island and were so thankful to have selected the centrally located, but tucked away condo that Mike and Lynette have. It did rain for 3 days there and the Kona wind was untypical for this time of year, but no matter there was always plenty to enjoy and we did just that. From quality family time, to whale watching tours, and watching the Sun rise atop Haleakala (2nd Morning, good call Mike!) We will be back and would like to book it ASAP, Lynette are you opening next year same time? We are in! Thanks for everything and good to visit with You, Mike and the kids. Fly Safe, see ya soon Steve, Elizabeth and the kids!

  • The best vacation we've ever had was at #413 Kanai A Nalu! The condo is beautiful and so conveniently located ... central to everything! We golfed at Kapalua one day and snorkeled at Wailea the next. We slept like babies in the comfortable bed, and Mike even enjoyed his guilty pleasure ... NFL on a Sunday morning! With quick access to the beach, beautiful views from the lanai, and an easy drive from the airport, we will definitely be return guests!

  • This was our 3rd trip to Maui but the first with the kids, teenage daughter and 11 year olds twins. This Condo was perfect for the family. The twins loved having their own room and the teenager made her self at home on the hideabed, she even stopped using her iPod at night because she loved the sound of the ocean. The central location of this condo makes it a very good choice and the small condo complex made it easy for us to allow the kids to go to the pool by themselves while we watched them from the lanai. Lynnette and Mike have done a nice job of outfitting it with everything you may need and the BBQ grills are new and work well so you can grill fresh fish for dinner. I would recommend this nice sized and centrally located condo to any family traveling to Maui.

  • We had the BEST vacation! We stayed for 14 nights March 16-30th. The 10 hour flight was well worth it when we saw this beautiful condo. We felt very lucky to have found such a perfect place to stay. Our kids are 7 & 5 and they loved having their own room and their own beds. First time ever they slept good away from home. We loved drinking coffee in the morning on the lanai and watching the whales, sea turtles, even a sea lion came to play. We took a tour of a big resort, so crowded and noisy, we couldn't wait to leave. When we go back to Maui, this will be the only place we will stay. Thank you Mike & Lynnette!
