  Aloha all. I would like to give my 2 cents worth on the Kuleana. . My wife and I have stayed at the Ritz Carlton, Four Seasons, and several other 5 star hotels throughout the western world and I am telling you that for the value, location, view, peacefulness, and cleanliness of the property, the Kuleana cannot be beat. Miranda DeSoto was our rental agent and she was AWESOME. As a seasoned traveler I have learned what to ask for and I am not the easiest person to please. Miranda was very patient, extremely helpful, and of all the requests I made, she met every one and more. Miranda gave me better service and attention than I have ever received From any 5 star hotel or reservationist. Thank you very much Miranda for your undivided attention to meeting my requests. So, onto the Kuleana review…….. 1) If you are looking for a party environment and lots of people….go somewhere else 2) If you are looking for one of the most spectacular ocean front views for the money, then Kuleana is the place. 3) The grounds were beautiful and meticulously maintained. 4) We saw turtles frolicking from our deck every morning, afternoon, and evening 5) We saw a spectacular whale show from our deck one morning with the whales breaching all the way out of the water. This one 3 hr period we saw 18 separate whales surface and/ breach over 60 times. This is one of those mastercard/visa commercial experiences….. (PRICELESS). I have been to Alaska several times and have not seen a show this spectacular. 6) VIEW,VIEW,VIEW, I would recommend the extra outlay for direct oceanfront unit. 7) LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION….. We have stayed in West Maui 5 different times and the physical location of Kuleana is Great. Snorkeling, Swimming, Sunsets, Whalewatching ,direct ocean front entertainment. Only 1 mile from stores, restaraunts, equiptment rentals, or services you neeed. On the property we enjoyed the heated pool, tennis, and playing shuffleboard everyday. The residents and vacationers on this property were friendly and always made us fee welcome. We cannot wait to go back to the great experience we had at Kuleana. Overall Rating is 4.5 out of 5. (Why??? No personal barmaid was available)

  September 23-October 5, 2012. We had a wonderful stay in #105. Gorgeous view, second floor, right up front. Post card perfect view. The pictures don't do justice to the gorgeous view. The unit was clean and very comfortable. Updated kitchen and bathroom, comfortable bed. T.V. In living room and bedroom. Air conditioner in bedroom was necessary since the windows don't open in room, so no cross breezes. Unfortunately the air conditioner is old and would occasionally make really loud noises which would wake us up. Smokers on both sides and above us, so often we had to endure stinky smoke while trying to enjoy the lanai. Oh well, not the end of the world. There were two small beach chairs, a beach umbrella, and several boogie boards available, as well as four beach towels. There was a certain sense of stinginess, in that we only got two rolls of T.P., two tiny bars of soap, and one load of laundry soap for a two week stay. Also only one dish cloth and towel. For the rate we paid, couldn't .50 go for tp? Very small issues compared to the wonderful experience overall. If you come to #105, just bring a bar of soap and a baggie of laundry soap. The pool was great, but almost no shade. The grounds were lovely, and the little beach out front was perfect. Hope to return.

  How wonderful of a time we had swimming with the turtles right in front of the condo; literally. The grounds and pool are well kept. The vegetation is beautiful. We met "T" the grounds keeper. He was very friendly and helpful throughout our stay. It's a quiet complex, especially at night. Great place to have a cocktail and watch the sunset on the lanai. I just loved going to sleep with the sound of the waves. We will definitely be back.

  Ths is a beautiful, well equiped condo with great views. The beach is actually closer than it appears in the pictures. Watch whales and sea turtles right from the lanai while enjoying your morning coffee. The grounds and pool area are well maintained and the parking very convenient. There are windows and airflow from three sides so we never used the air conditioner and the condo is set back enough from the road that noise is not a problem. Nicely furnished, kitchen is well equiped and plenty of linens. It was great to have the washer and dryer right in the unit. Just a short drive to shopping, snorkeling, restaurants and golf. We can't wait to return and will definitely recommend this unit to our friends and family.

  We spent 2 weeks in Nov 2011 here and had a wonderful experience. The unit is as per the pics, vast ocean view from your Lanai so you always have sound of waves. Small beach out front is fine to spend a few hrs or have your tea in the am before heading to a big beach. LOT'S of turtles right out front - can even snorkle with them! Nice quiet location within driving distance to many beaches and attractions. Unit was very clean but not fully updated. The biggest issue was the bathtroom -needs updating esp. the toilet-was so weak and old, wasting lot's of water...Bed was a nice king-pretty comfortable mattress. There is a pool which looked clean but didn't even use when there-went to the beach! BBQ's were fine-little finnicky but still perfectly useable and a nice way to cook your meals. Grounds were very well maintained. Nice having an insuite laundry for longer stays. Overall very comfortable, clean and had everything you need. (except a tea kettle!) Would stay here again!

  We thought this condo was very comfortable and loved how close we were to the water! We saw alot of whales and turtles right from our balcony, everyday. The condo was close to shopping, grocery, restaurants. We would stay in this condo again when we come back to Maui. Thank You Miranda!

  my husband and I had lovely 3 three days in this paradise house in west Maui, where proves to be our best exprience in Hawii. the condo is very comfortable-- cozy living room with fantastic ocean view, quiet bedroom with comfortable bedding and linen. The kitchen is my favorite where I can cook the best food with the best sea view.And if lucky, you will see turtle and whale just from the lanai. how wonderful! the compound is quiet and private...we love it!
