Don't be put off by the small number of reviews. This condo is a lockout 2 bedroom is made up of a adjacent studio (VRBO 70451) and one bedroom (VRBO 70450). You can see the more than 250 reviews from happy vacationners on those listings. It is so popular split that is it rarely available as the full 2 bedroom for larger families.
This Grand Champions, two bedroom, two bath condominium is just a short walk to the ocean. This is our personal condominium, and when we are not on the property one of our neighbors will be available to take care of any problems. Please check our rental calendar before putting in an inquiry, as this will save us both time; we keep it up to the minute.
The ground floor unit features easy access and a reserved parking space in front of the unit, as well as use of convenient guest parking. It features two large bedrooms with comfortable, king and queen size bed, a living room, two large futons, a full kitchen, dining area and a second kitchenette, two full bathrooms including one with a two person shower and a tub, and a large lanai featuring tropical garden views - with a waterfall and stream in the winter months. Floor space is approximately 1400 square feet. See below for other details. There are two separate entry doors, and a lockable door between the two halves of the condominium for more privacy as needed. While it is a ground floor unit, the lanai is raised about six feet off ground level (no outside access). This is the most affordable two bedroom luxury condo in one of the finest resorts in the world. It is like staying at the world famous Grand Wailea resort (which you can walk to) for less than a third of the price. The unit easily sleeps six. This is one of the best units in the complex, quiet because it is an end unit and on also on the edge of the property, and shaded for most of the day so it is cool even in the summer.
The Grand Champions property features two pools with whirlpool spas, barbecue facilities and lush gardens. It is surrounded by Wailea's award winning Blue Golf Course and Tennis Club. Ranked in the top 50 best resort tennis facilities, the club boasts 11 plexi-pave courts, three lit courts for night play, a stadium court and a full service pro shop. Guests will receive preferential golf and tennis rates at the Wailea and Makena Resorts. Condo quests also receive half price discounts at a nice health club in Kihei.
Located in the heart of the Wailea Resort area, on Maui's sunny south shore, Grand Champions is just a short walk to the Shops at Wailea, and minutes from Ulua Beach (ranked 8th in the nation - world class snorkeling & diving too), Keawakapu, Mokapu, Ulua, Wailea Beach, and Polo Beaches, spa facilities and award winning restaurants. Grand Champions is a private enclave in the midst of Wailea that offers its guests all the wealth of this world-class resort's environment and a touch of seclusion that sets it quietly apart. The architecture is classic, the environment peaceful, the landscaping lush, and the views are exceptional - including the world's largest dormant volcano, Haleakala.
Kihei is a few minutes to the north. This is much more of a busy, touristy town. You can find lots of stores there to get groceries and other stuff; and some good, inexpensive restaurants. There is also mainland style shopping center a few miles up the Piilani Highway, with and Outback Steakhouse, a Blockbuster Video and other name brand stores; including a Safeway for food supplies.
Discover Hawaii's fascinating undersea world on a snorkel or dive trip. Explore the beautiful Hawaiian waters aboard a private yacht charter or observe nature on a whale watching tour. For those who would like to remain on land, Hawaii offers adventurous bike tours and eco-tourism hikes. Visit Ahihi-Kina'u Natural Area Reserve, Kealia Pond Wildlife Refuge, or the Hawaiian Islands Humpback Whale Sanctuary. Maui is a treasure of cultural and natural sights just waiting to be explored.
This condo is Non Smoking, including the lanai area.
There are no pets allowed in the condo complex.
Check in time is 3:00; check out time is 11:00. You MUST be out of the condo by 11:00 so it can be cleaned for the next occupant unless we have agreed to a late checkout in advance. Absent that pre-agreement, if you are not out of the unit by 11:00, you will be charged an additional days rental. Please note that if there are back-to-back, or in and out on the same day, situations created by your reservation, this may cause my cleaner to be overbooked, and you may be asked to accept a later check in time, such as 6:00. If this is necessary, a $50 credit will be given.
Cancellations and refunds:
A $500 Deposit is required to hold the condo for all reservations. For rentals longer than three weeks, a larger deposit may be required. This deposit will not be refunded for cancellations within 2 months of arrival. If you just shift a booking in the same general timeframe we can carryover the deposit. If you just cancel, you can apply half of the deposit to a future rental. The balance is due one month before arrival. If the balance is not paid at that time, the reservation may be canceled. Once full payment is made, and if you have to cancel up to 2 weeks before arrival, we will refund one half of the total payment. After that, no refund of any kind.

The condo is clearly advertised as “NON-SMOKING”, including the lanai. If you are found to have violated this, you will be charged an additional $250 cleaning fee.
Note that the 2 BR also can be divided up and rented as a 1 BR and a studio, and in fact usually rents that way. So you can see lots of additional helpful Guestbook comments on this condo in my VRBO listings for those units, 70450 and 70451.

Stayed at the condo for six days in July 2012. We had a great time. My family moved right in and made themselves at home. There was plenty room for the eight of us. The condo included everything we needed for the beach, snorkeling and just fun. I very highly recommend this condo and area in Maui.Recommended for: Sightseeing, families with young children, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.

Thank you Mark for allowing us to stay in your place for nearly 3 weeks. This was our 14th time to the Island and our first time to the Grand Champions. We would stay here again without a doubt. We love the unit, the garden view was quite and secluded. The unit was clean and well stocked. Close to best beaches in Maui and within walking distance of great places to dine and shop. Thank you again and we will be checking with you first before making any plans to come to the island!!Recommended for: Sightseeing, tourists without a car, people with disabilities, girls getaway, families with young children, pet owners, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with teenagers.

We stayed in the 1 BR and it was spacious and easily accommodated our two boys (7 and 8) on the futon. There was also another couch to sit on, so we did not have to fold up their bed each day. The location was excellent: near great beaches and shopping, and on a golf course. It was also near the pool and BBQ. The place is kept clean and has snorkel equipment, boogie boards, ice chest, and a completely furnished kitchen. Would definitely recommend to friends.Recommended for: Sightseeing, families with young children, romantic getaway.

This was our first trip to Maui. We had a wonderful time and it was great staying at this condo. We enjoyed the privacy of facing the plumeria trees, the bright back bedroom, double lanai, and that it accomodated 5 people comfortably. We also loved that it was only a two minute drive to many beautiful beaches. The kids liked walking to the shopping center and we enjoyed barbequeing and swimming in the pool and hot tub.I got up several mornings to meditate with the chirping of the birds. This condo was bigger than most others in our price range. The grounds were well maintained and the house was decorated with a palm-tree theme. The owner was helpful and prompt in answering questions. On our last night we went to Murphy's for dinner, drank mai tai's on the lanai, watched the sunset and listened to Willie K on slack key guitar. A perfect way to end a lovely vacation.Recommended for: Families with young children, age 55+.

Our entire Maui experience was one of the best we've ever had as a family. We are a family of 7 with children aging in range from 9 to 19. This very spacious condo allowed everyone to have their own space and not be tripping over each other. The fully equipped unit(s) had everything you would have at home, plus snorkeling equipment, beach towels and lounging chairs for the beach. The place was spotless and bug free. There were movies and books and not once did we hear the words "I'm bored". The condo was even more than we thought it would be from the description on the VRBO website. The owner is very honest and helpful and there were no issues. We definitely would do this again without thinking twice about it.Recommended for: Families with young children, adventure seekers, families with teenagers.

This condo is a great find! We much prefer Wailea over some of the other vacation locations. This complex is beautifully landscaped and handy to everything. We were very comfortable in your condo and made many new friends around the pool. Hope to be back again.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/0

What a wonderful place you have- beautiful but not ostentacious - this makes it very comfortable! I love that you had those items that make your vacation that much better - snorkling gear, towels, beach chairs, movies. We'll be back! Thanks for supplying a fantastic home base!Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 0/1

Location
Owner info
Year Purchased: 2005
About the owner: Living in California, we purchased this property for our retirement.
Why the Owner Chose Grand Champions:
We purchased this condo, which is part of a 2 BR lockout unit, as our retirement home. Of course that hasn't happened as soon as we were expecting. We stayed in a similar unit one summer and fell in love with the area. We were looking for a place that would be great for vacations but also someplace that we could see ourselves living some day.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo:
Very peaceful and beautiful location.
