Had a great time! Lots of great beach and snorkel equipment! Fully equipped kitchen! Nice to have two bedrooms with queen beds and en-suites. Very comfortable living area. Had a few problems with the refrigerator, but were resolved quickly and compensated nicely! Thanks Sonia! Love Maui and will be back!

We'll Be Back

Guest: Sandy K (Portland)
Date of Stay: 01/27/12 Review Submitted: 02/04/12

This is a wonderful condo. It's hard to find two master suites and this great condo has them. The unit is beautifully furnished and comes with three TVs which is nice for two couples. The kitchen is well furnished and very comfortable. We particularly liked the new washer/dryer. Seems in Hawaii these break down quickly and these are very nice and new. We walked to shops, restaurant and beach. The owners are local and were right on hand to replace a broken ceiling fan. Very nice, accommodating people. It was great to meet the hosts. You can't beat this condo for location, furnishings and value.

Our Maui Stay at the Grand Champions in Wailea

Guest: Bluejay (Fremont, CA)
Date of Stay: 01/12/12 Review Submitted: 01/24/12

The place is situated in a beautiful location in Wailea, Maui. It's close (walking distance) to shopping stores and fine restaurants, and not to mention to gorgeous beaches and golf courses. Actually, its backyard is a golf course. The condo is meticulously neat and clean and full of amenities. The kitchen is so complete with everything you need whenever you prefer to make meals. It's really a home away from home. I really like the fact that each of the two rooms has its own bathroom. The owner is very friendly and helpful. Our stay was enjoyable and very relaxing. I would recommend this place to my friends and relatives. Closeby Nick's Fish Market restaurant is very good particularly if you like seafood. Their service is exceptional.

Grand champion condo

We loved this unit. It was clean, spacious and had all the luxuries of home. The location was perfect. It was close enough to activities and beaches, but away enough that you had some quiet time. Other than some a/c problems I would highly recommend this unit. Loved having beach chairs, umbrella, boogie boards, towels and cooler for trips at the beach. Thanks sonia.

We truly enjoyed our stay in the condo backing on to the Champions golf course. It was a pleasant walk to the Tennis club, Shops at Wailea and the Beach. The accommodations were clean and well maintained and allowed our family to feel comfortable while spending Christmas and New Years in Maui. The listing photos accurately reflected the rental's appearance. The owner was extremely helpful in going out of her way to provide us with some items and information which we truly appreciated. We are grateful for her hospitality. We definitely would recommend this property to friends and relatives.

THIS CONDO IS THE PLACE TO STAY!!!

Guest: Melissa (Seattle, WA)
Date of Stay: 09/07/11 Review Submitted: 09/23/11

My husband and I came out to Wailea for a vacation with our family. Let me tell you this gorgeous condo is not only spacious for 4, but there is another bed to sleep up to 6. We had huge kitchen to cook in, with a dining space to eat. This condo also has A/C in every room with a fan connected to the ceiling, so we stayed cool every evening. There are 2 beautiful pools with hot tubs, in that 1 is in almost total privacy. This condo is also located on a golf course (but also has an amazing view of the ocean and islands) and is close to every attraction; restaurants, beaches, shopping, hotels, leisure activities, etc. You will not find a better place to stay and at this price! Last but not least, the owner of this condo, is both helpful and kind. She not only asked if we needed anything to better our stay, but helped us book some entertainment during our vacation. She is amazing!

Their are hundreds of beaches on Maui so you have to either load the car or stay at one spot. Each beach has something diffrent to offer depending on what you want to do. Clean, new, well stocked, convenient. Thanks Sonia for letting us stay at one of the prettiest places on earth. Owner response: We take extra care in making sure our guests arrive to a "home" that is well loved and cared for. From the first email or telephone call we provide the very best service to all of our guests to ensure that your vacation is hassle-free. Thanks Robby!

Great Condo

Guest: Missing Maui (Pacific Northwest)
Date of Stay: 12/04/10 Review Submitted: 02/05/11

We really enjoyed our stay in your condo. We could just barely see the ocean from the lanai, and enjoyed watching the golfers in the morning and evenings as well. The condo was wonderfully situated in the complex-very little auto traffic-and the kitchen included all the necessities. We traveled with both young children and a grandparent, and had plenty of room and privacy for everyone. We especially appreciated the wonderful double shower in the master-great for washing the sand off the kids before dinner! Wonderful beaches were within a 5 minute drive of the condo-it was great.

We went with another couple in Nov 2009. It was fantastic!!! Have been to Maui many times and this is our favorite place. We can hardly wait to come back here again. We never needed for anything except food but the grocery store was close as well. Good location. We loved the morning patio time watching the golfers and enjoying that morning sunshine. Plenty of room and privacy for us all. It was our friends first time in Maui and they just loved your place, too. We hope to return next year for 2 weeks this time. Mahalo for such a wonderful home away from home.

Owner response:Hi Jeanne and Don, Thank you for your message. So happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us. I can't wait to welcome you back. Aloha, Sonia

This is a little late but I had a great time staying at this condo! We spent most of our time relaxing on the lanai sipping on our homemade margaritas while we watch golfers go by. It was a great place to relax after spending a very strenuous day on the beach!

My wife and I enjoyed our stay at this beautifully decorated unit on the ground floor. The condo had everything we needed to save money by making dinner every night. We'll definitely plan to return here next time we come to Wailea. Sonia (the owner) was very friendly and accommodating. Great unit for the price!

Owner response:Glad to hear that you both enjoyed your stay. I look forward to welcoming you back in the near future.

This place is spectacular. We enjoyed the gorgeous sunsets every night the lanai. The place seemed to have every item you would find in your home. You name it, it was there. Very classy in every respect--movies, CDs, books, gorgous interior. Nice pool and great parking right out your door. Sonia was so accomodating too. This place will not disappoint you. Everything in the place was very elegant. We love the huge shower--it is the size of large walkin closet with two showerheads! Huge bathroom vanity too with double sinks. The two baths were great to have and it was perfect for 4 people. Bedrooms are not next to each other, so it was quiet. Couldn't beat the location either. Fantastic public beach right across the street and it even had shade trees, coral reefs for snorkeling, Deli for snacks, etc. Great trip.

Owner response:Hi Kathy, Thanks so much for sharing! .I am so happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us. I hope to welcome you and your family back soon. Have a safe trip home!!! Much Aloha, Sonia

What an enjoyable, restful and memorable vacation we had in your condo! Marion and I can’t thank you enough. We have stayed in Wailea many times over the past five years, and we agree that your unit is one of the best and most comfortable that we’ve stayed in so far. The décor that you have selected is so pleasant and tasteful; the bamboo hardwood floors are beautiful, and the kitchen was equipped with everything we needed for our stay. We were looking for a quiet place to rest and your condo fits that bill really well! We loved sitting on the lanai, watching the birds in the mornings and the sunsets at dusk. The basket of fruit was a great surprise, making us feel so welcome into your Maui home. The welcome basket was an especially warm touch to our stay. Thank you. You made the reservation transactions so easy and secure also. We can’t wait to stay in your condo again on our next visit to Maui. Mahalo!Sincerely,Marion and Jerome

Thanks so much for letting us stay in your lovely condo in Wailea. The location is great (on golf course and near beautiful beaches) and the mountain views are breathtaking. We really appreciated all of your amenities. Your place really does have it all and would be great for two couples or for a family. Thanks again!

This was a really nice condo, large, nice view from deck, master suite and shower. Hi speed internet worked fine, relatively quite, nice location in upper Wailea, easy walk to shops. It is an upper unit, so people having trouble with stairs should look for something on the ground floor, but that's the only potential downside I can think of, great place!
