Perfect location

Nice space for a couple. Needs some work, but well worth the price. Loved the location...right across the beach! Perfect for stand up paddle boarding, long board surfing, snorkeling, and sunset gazing. Very close to delicious restaurants and grocery stores. Will stay here again for sure!

Aloha Melanie, We certainly appreciate your comments and think that it is great that you enjoyed your stay, plus you are looking forward to staying again!

The access to shopping, restaurants, parks, volleyball...all activities for all to enjoy, really add to our location benefits. Since I recently took over as property manager, we are also making changes to address some TLC issues that will improve our guests' experience and hopefully raise your future rating to 5 star.

Maui Vacation Unit #4

Thank you Ralph and Marie for making our stay in Maui more than we could ask for. The Villa was clean, quite and in a perfect location. With the beach steps from our front door, we were able to sit outside and watch amazing sunsets, enjoy the sounds of the waves, gaze at the stars and enjoyed all that nature has to offer. The shops, restaurants & grocery stores were minutes away which made everything at our finger tips. We were truly blessed to have the warmth and hospitality y'all showed us and was deeply appreciated. We will be back!!! Wilma and Tim Deer Park, Texas 06/16

A Great Vacation!

We stayed in 2 of the cottages and both were great. Perfect for us. The first 5 days we stayed in one of the renovated cottages and the rest of our stay was in a retro cottage with a new fridge, new TV, and best of all, a new and comfortable bed. The cottages are very close to whatever you need: food stores, shops, bars, etc. Right across from the complex are 2 wonderful beaches, 1 for surfing/paddle boarding and the other for snorkeling and tanning. The sunsets right outside the cottage door were amazing. The manager, Ralph, was friendly and looked after us very well. He made sure we were comfortable and even lent us beach towels, chairs and boogie boards. Thanks for helping to make our stay memorable, Ralph! We had a wonderful time and are very happy to recommend this property.

Aloha Rick & Janice, We appreciate your review and are very glad that you enjoyed your first stay at the Maui Cove Park Inn! First time guests' such as yourselves are discovering the secrets that we offer...direct access to Kihei's only consistent surf spot, and direct access to a semi private beach that is great for all water activities...as you guys happily enjoyed! Our central Kihei location has many other conveniences and our villas afford guests' privacy, parking convenience, great views with some of South Maui's best beaches just steps away. It's also great to hear that you had the opportunity to stay in both a remodeled villa and villa 4...since it has not been completely remodeled. We want to maintain the older charm & decor that this villa provides with the wood walls and overall feel...accomplishes that. We look forward to your return. Mahalo Nui Loa, Ralph

A++

This is such a great location with individual villas located just steps away from Cove Beach with a nice ocean view. Just across the street there is access to a secluded beach and a short walk to Charley Young Beach. The villa has a private entrance and covered lanai with your own parking just a few feet away. Such a bonus when unloading heading out for a day adventure. The inside was spotless clean and without clutter. The a/c and two ceiling fans kept the place nice and comfortable. The wifi, beach gear, guides, and plenty of beach towels were nice amenities. Kitchen was well equipped and had a nice view of the cove. The many five star reviews of Maui Cove Park Inn should tell you this is a great place to stay. Can't end the review without saying thanks to Ralph. You do such a great job with this property and your hospitality is second to none....hope to be back soon!

Perfect Honeymoon Haven in Kihei

The property owned by Gal in Kihei proved to be more than just a place to stay; it was a complete tropical paradise that has been etched into our honeymoon memories forever. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with heartfelt touches of hospitality - a bottle of sparkling wine waiting for us, setting the mood for a romantic retreat. This was just the first hint of the property's charm. It boasted immaculate and beautiful interiors, exuding a warm, inviting ambiance. The amenities were nothing short of wonderful. Everything was thoughtfully designed with the guests' comfort in mind. What really set our stay apart was the extraordinary level of hospitality. When our flight was unexpectedly cancelled, the management was kind enough to extend our stay by an extra day at no additional cost. This gesture allowed us to fully enjoy our honeymoon without any stress of finding a new place or additional charges. To top it all off, when we encountered a minor issue - a broken blender, the response was swift and efficient. Within minutes, the property manager was at our doorstep with a new blender top, allowing us to continue our smoothie-making plans without a hitch. Our experience was a combination of a stunning location, incredible amenities, and unparalleled hospitality. I would highly recommend this property to anyone seeking a remarkable stay in Kihei. It is a place where you're treated not just as guests, but as ohana. Five stars all around, mahalo!

Wonderful Stay at Villas by the Cove

Wonderful stay from beginning to end! We had a big group and rented almost all the villas. Everyone had their own privacy in their villa when needed and the pavilion pool area was great for being together. Easy walk to town for food and drinks. Easy walk to the beach. Everything was great. If we go to Maui with a group we will definitely stay here again.

Shhhh - don't tell anyone

I really hate to leave such a glowing review because I know this place is going to be impossible to get into once word gets out. This is the loveliest VRBO we've ever enjoyed. PERFECT in every way from accommodations, appointments, and amenities to location to the countless beaches within walking distance. The staff could not be more pleasant. The cleaning crew is magical in their dedication and talent. The grounds are delightful. It's quiet as a church mouse. The owners thoughtfully provide beach chairs, umbrella, a cooler, a drying rack, beach towels, and boogie boards. One can lounge at the salt water pool either in the sun on a chaise or in the shade of a living adjacent sitting area. I'm copying some of the design elements they used in construction. Do you want to keep up with your yoga practice? No problem. Just join the team on MWF at 7 am. Reserved parking behind a gate. The road at the front is mostly used for walkers or an occasional local resident. The property offers 2 paddle boards for guest use. There's a giant park across the street. The local grocery store is within walking distance. We loved every minute of this place.

Awesome time and great location

We stayed in Villa 9 for 14 days with our 2 children. There was more than enough room. The place was very accommodating and close to the beach. It is also very close and walking distance to shops and restaurants. The staff was very nice and always there to help or just to chat. We hope to one day come back!

A beautifully renovated villa on the Cove in Maui steps from the beach.

The villa was lovely and is well equipped. We enjoyed using the free paddle boards and the 100 steps to take them to the beach. The management are friendly and responsive. The brand new pool is beautiful and the lounge chairs are so comfortable. We loved it so much, that my parents are staying there in February. We will definitely return to the Villas by the Cove and we highly recommend staying there.

Great place in a great location

Great partial ocean views! If your looking to learn to surf, this place is perfect; you’re right across the street from a beginner break and have free access to boards. You’re also very close to a large beautiful, swimmable beach (<5min walk). For those with a kid, there was a large playground in walking distance. The place has a new owner, who is very responsive. I would comment on the place itself but we were told it’s being fully renovated so there’s no need; I would assume it will be even nicer for the next guests. Highly recommend!

This is a nice spacious place. Could use a little paint touch up here and there but overall a clean and quite place to stay. Great location with a surf beach across the street and a huge sun, swim, paddle board beach just a quick walk up the street. I would stay here again.

Wonderful fun and relaxing

Maui Cove Park is centrally located off S. Kihei Rd right across from Cove park and beaches. We loved sitting out on our patio with morning coffee orhaving our dinner outside with the sunrise and sunsets. Villa 4 has everything in the kitchen you need , lots of storage for suitcases and closet space. Well equipped with beach chairs, umbrella, cooler and boogie boards. You can easily walk to many restaurants and 2 grocery stores. We used the well maintained Weber grills almost every night of our 2 week stay. You can walk to at least 5-6 beaches or take the bus. Great jumping off place to drive north or to the airport and upland or volacano. Villa 4 is on Illlini road but a hedge provides barrier, you have your own parking space and the park gate is locked at 8pm and opened at 7am. We enjoyed the local surfing activity and family gatherings in the Cove . We will definitely be back Thank you Ralph

Real Hawaii!

Great place to get the Aloha spirit: no hiding behind gates at luxury pools etc. loved watching the surfers in the morning and sunsets in the evening, place was spotless, host was super friendly. Great value. Small kitchen w everything you need. Kinda dark inside our unit (#4) but kept it cool. Minor street noise. But What's not to like?

great value and location!

Villa 4 was perfect for me and my adult son. ( I wanted to come back to Maui and he was selected! It was our birthdays.) The villa was just across from Cove Park and we enjoyed watching the paddle boarders and surfers in the cove every morning and most evenings from our lanai/carport. We also enjoyed a couple of the regular locals who came to the park and just sat and played guitars every weekday morning. The villa was clean and well equipped with modern amenities. We especially liked the great snorkeling in the cove. Lots of fish and turtles! We went snorkeling there a number of mornings. The location of Maui Cove Inn was great as we could walk to a number of shops and restaurants in Kihei, and a number of beaches. The sunsets were awesome, even with the clouds that drifted in from West Maui in the evenings. I would recommend this place to all my friends and I plan on coming back next year. Ralph was a great host and gave us tips on where to snorkel, shops and restaurants. This was a great value as the places up the road were much more expensive. Ralph- don't raise the rates!

Perfect location with a private little beach!

This was mine and my husbands first trip to Maui and we stayed at the Maui Cove Park in an absolutely loved it! We stayed at Villa 4 and loved that our view was of the beach park right across the street! I loved waking up to watch the surfers every morning and the paddle borders and then watch all the little kids learning to surf in the evenings while watching the sunset from our porch! The Villa quickly became our little home away from home! Villa 4 has a private back porch which is where I would drink my coffee in the mornings and watch all the little geckos in the backyard. The kitchen was nicely stocked with everything needed to cook dinner. We also used the grills a few nights and my husband was happy with them. Said they looked brand new. It was nice to also get to use equipment like two camping chairs. We prefer them to the beach chairs to be higher up off the sand, we used the snorkel equipment, boogie boards, beach towels, and a beach umbrella provided for free! Ralph is such a nice guy and knew us by name when we pulled into our driveway. He came over and introduced himself to us and told all about some great local beaches and eating spots! Our flights also were changed by our airline and we didn't fly out until 10pm. We were worried about taking showers after beaching it all day and Ralph was so nice and extended our checkout time so that we can use that whole day to go to the beach for the last time and then come back to the villa to shower and get ready for our flight home! If you do end up staying here you got a good little private beach this one house away it's beautiful and it seem to have a resident little turtle that lived there by the rocks. And don't forget to stop off on you way back to your villa and shower off under a giant mango tree! It's pretty cool ! Note** I read some reviews before staying here that said villa 4 was closer to the beach park therefore noisy. We didn't hear anything in the evenings or mornings! It was wonderful! We loved our 8 days in Maui and loved our little villa 4! We will be back!
