  I did a lot of research on where to stay on our recent trip to the islands and found this on a vacation rental website and the description matches the reality. The unit is located on the third floor of the Maui Kai complex which is smaller and more intimate than its neighboring buildings. The corner unit provided unobstructed views of the coast line and a perfect views of the Molokai which were amazing. There is an elevator near the unit which makes made it very convenient to get in and out without walking around the entire complex. Also, we saw many whales playing in the ocean with their new borns. It was a great way to start the morning and get moving. What impressed me the most was how well appointment the entire unit was, especially the kitchen. We are food people and were able to hit the market (within walking distance) and cook our own meals in the condo. Dishwasher, coffe makers, fridge, freezer, plenty of cutlery and glasses, and beautiful countertops. Really don't need much more than this and there was plenty more. Great sound system pre-loaded with music with the speakers facing the lanai (yes, I noticed); books for reading about the island; Dvd's if you ever needed them; reliable Wi-FI for posting reviews; snorkel and swim gear in the closet; sleep number bed for a comfortable night's rest; very nice coin-op laundry 20 steps from condo; parking for your jeep; electronic key door for easy entry after too many mai tai's at the luau; did I mention the view? Here's a tip: there is a book under the coffee table that gives a wonderful history on the Maui Kai complex and the unit along with great tips for getting the max out of your vacation. This place is perfect for those looking for a couples getaway without the bore of staying at a hotel. Enjoy the island like a local does with a little slice of home right on the water. We'll definitely be back.

  Recommended for: Sightseeing, age 55+, romantic getaway.

  Spent our honeymoon in Maui at Maui Kai 301. It was amazing! The condo is immaculate, the beach is awesome, and Shayla does an amazing job preparing the condo. Everything we needed besides food was already in the condo and ready to go when we arrived. The DVR and HD TV were appreciated while we weathered the tropical depression on our first 2 days. About half a mile walk down the beach towards the black rock is the best beach we've ever been to! Can't wait to go back!

  This was the best vacation we have ever had. From the moment we first contacted Shayla until our checkout day, everything was perfect. When we arrived, there was a beautiful welcome basket waiting for us with fresh fruit, chocolates, and coconut cookies. What a wonderful treat after being on such a long flight. The accomodations were immaculate and the view, well what can I say? It was spectacular. The view actually created a problem for us since it was so beautiful we didn't want to leave the lanai! Every morning we were treated to seeing Sea Turtles or Manta Ray's swimming by. We also adopted a group of birds that came to visit us every morning for breakfast. You could really tell that the management company cared about the property. Everytime we did pull ourselves away from the lanai to venture out and explore the island we saw somebody cleaning or performing upkeep on the property. Shayla's attention to detail is amazing. Everything we could ever need was there. My husband and I were just in awe that somebody could think of everything. It made for such a pleasant experience. Thank you, thank you, thank you Shayla!!

  We were more than thrilled with the condo that Shayla rented to us. Befoe our arrival Shayla was sooo helpful in our planning process. We wanted for nothing when we arrived. The description of Maui Kai 301 is totally accurate and precise. We did awake to waves every morning and fell asleep on the lanai a few times. The shower and bathroom is top quality. I would compare the shower to what you find at Spa Grande. The rainshower head was our favorite part of the condo.

  Even though we arrived later at night parking was easy which is not the case with most other resorts in this popular area. Maui Kai 301 is Ideally located with easy access to the elevator and being a corner unit it offers awesome views in all directions from the patio. We skipped the mirrored bedroom with king size bed and chose to sleep on the spacious lanai in a very comfortable futon. Here after much stargazing we were lullabied to sleep by waves crashing on the shore, literally, directly beneath us. At dawn surreal pink and purple colors spread across the water and sky, perfectly framed by palm tree branches. I took a video from my bed to prove I wasn't dreaming. The owners have decorated with large canvases of local photos that are enough to inspire the artist in everyone. All the appliances, dishware and furnishings are top notch, making tasks simple, meals feel elegant and even taste better! I was especially pleased with the water filter pitcher and very roomy refrigerator. The walk-in shower with luxurious showerhead is phenominal and the towels are thick and soft. Another nice touch is that many extras are provided like candles, spices, condiments, games and books, boogie boards, beach mats and even sunblock. Just like the owners other unit in Hana, its hard to need anything. :) Infact its so comfortable its easy to be lulled into just laying around appreciating it all. But if you can move yourself outdoors the beach in front of the condo and next door is really great for swimming, waves and snorkeling out around the buoys. AND there is a patio area with lounge chairs for getting sun without sand if its too windy.

  We spent 10 days at the Maui Kai 301. I should say 10 days in the Maui Kai 301 because we didn't want to go out. It is a perfect spot. Any closer to the water and you would have to swim. The lanai is comfortable with an unobstructed 180 view and privacy. The condo is like a home with everything you could want for a great vacation. We cooked in most nights and the kitchen was very well equipped. There were beach toys, a comfortable bed and a great shower. The location was perfect for long walks on the beach and food. We found the best Mai Tai's around next door for $4. After 10 days in the Maui Kai 301 we spent 3 days in the owners other condo at the Hana Kai. We were reluctant to make the drive but we are glad we did. It's not so bad if you take it slow. It is very green and very different from the rest of Maui. Hana is quiet and peaceful with amazing waterfalls and beaches. Once again the condo had everything you would need and was very charming and comfortable. We didn't have any trouble with noisy neighbors but it could be the luck of the draw. The condo overlooks a black sand beach and it's walking distance to the little town. We had a great dinner at the Hana Hotel and and a couples outdoor massage while listening to the ocean. We have been to Maui many times but never left so relaxed or so upset to have to leave. I would highly recommend both condo's and I would not miss the opportunity to stay a few days in Hana. We are booking again a year in advance to be sure we get to return.

  Every morning was spent on the beautiful lanai sipping coffee, playing cards or dice games and enjoying our breakfast, which was easily prepared in the well-equipped kitchen. It was a perfect way to start each day. After the daily activities (which can be just outside the door) we gratefully arrived back at #301 for an evening of relaxing and absorbing the beautiful sunset; only to be lured asleep by the sounds of the waves that are directly below us. It truly was a special vacation and Maui Kai #301 was an integral part of it!

  This is the second time we have stayed at Maui Kai Unit 301. Although we thought it was great the first time we stayed four years ago, we were thrilled at how this unit has been updated. It is absolutely beautiful. If being near the ocean is a priority, this is the best place to stay. You can sit on your lanai and watch the whales and sea turtles all day long. The owners have thought of everything when furnishing this unit, even including beach chairs and boogie boards for the kids. My husband and I and our two 17 year old boys had more than enough room. After staying here, we have all decided this is so much better than staying at a crowded and cramped hotel, regardless of how nice the hotels in the area are. This was cheaper than the hotels on Maui and you get much more for your money. There is a grocery store across the street and we enjoyed not having to go out to restaurants for every meal. Nothing beats enjoying your breakfast or dinner on the lanai while your watching the whales or the sunset. We would not stay anywhere else on the island and look forward to staying here again.

  This condo is clean, beautifully decorated and has everyting that anyone could want to enjoy a wonderful vacation. You could not get closer to the ocean! It is a smaller condo complex (quiet and private) and has a pool and jacuzzi. Parking is free! You are also close to other resorts, resturants, a grocery store and places to visit. We will be back again to this same condo unit - can't wait!
