Exquisite Condo with an Awesome Ocean View Emerald 289

My wife and I were in Hawaii for a incentive trip with my company and were going to stay at the Grand Wailea resort for 4 days. The other 4 days we were on our own and wanted to find something nice, but affordable. This is it! Overlooking the pool that was never crowded. Is family friendly. Has a bar and cafe right there, and walking distance to the ocean, maybe 30 yards. The grounds are just beautiful. Some of our friends also found condos on their own, and they raved after spending the afternoon with us. We want to stay here again and would highly recommend it . Golf is very close too and some good restaurants right down the road in Lahaina.

First of all, everything written about how great, and easy it is to work with the owners, Joe and Gina, is true, and having stayed at other units twice before at the Maui Kaanapalli Villas, we knew we would be back. We looked at this unit from outside on our last trip, and it just looked like it would be a nice place to stay. I contacted Gina after that trip, and found she and Joe were there the same time. We booked it for 12 nights to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary, and when we walked in, and saw how intimate, clean and well decorated it was, we were glad we did. We had to then look at our view of everything outside, and it was absolutely beautiful looking out over the pool, with a view of the ocean and Molokai.

As described in the amenities, the only thing you needed to bring, were your clothes, yourselves and whatever you wanted to eat. There were plenty of pans, utensils and spices for cooking, and there are 2 big gas barbecues about 100 feet away, which are cleaned and kept spotless each day.

Each time we go, we always ask ourselves when we're coming back. and each time, the time span gets shorter. We cannot wait to return soon, and we will be staying here.

I could go on and on, so look at all the wonderful things others' have written , and know they are absolutely true! Personally, I wish I could give it more stars!

We loved every minute of our stay in this condo. We have stayed in several different units on this property and this our favorite. Very clean, comfy bed, great lanai with nice view of the water and the owners were very responsive to any questions. Would definitely stay here again.

We were familiar with Maui Kaanapali Villas, having stayed at another unit in the past. The resort property drew us back, in that the low-rise, beach-adjacent buildings leave plenty of room for sun and views, especially from those buildings. Nice pool area, on-property restaurant and well-maintained grounds. Friendly staff. Other resort highlights for us include proximity to the beach path, and the resort having a less "chaotic" feel than the resorts south of Black Rock, while still being "in Kaanapali". Beyond that, this unit delivers on all levels. Top-end materials are utilized throughout such as travertine flooring, granite countertops & lovely cabinetry. North-facing (thus shaded), large balcony, with second-floor views - exactly as pictured. Extremely well-stocked, with kitchen tools, pans, etc. more like one's home kitchen. Includes plenty of beach gear, especially chairs, boards, etc. Can't think of anything more to look for in a vacation rental.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Everything was as you indicated. Loved the location, the beautifully furnished condo, the wonderful balcony, well stocked unit with all the amenities of home, beach walk, Castaway Grill and the smaller scale resort/property which never was overpopulated with guests (we could always find a prime beach spot or chair around the pool). I HIGHLY recommend this spot! Definitely will be back!
