Central Kihei vacation rentals

Pragmatic and great location

Relaxing and fun with great sunsets.

This charming cottage is a marvel of great design, surrounded by a beautiful garden. We enjoyed walking through the friendly neighborhood on our way to town. The owners are skilled, organized inn keepers. All contributed to a wonderful week on Maui.

As a seasoned Maui visitor, I've stayed in many places, but this oceanfront gem in Kihei stands out. Waking up to the beautiful ocean view each morning is a delightful way to start the day. The sunsets, directly visible from the balcony, are truly magical. The apartment is impeccably clean and well-equipped with all the necessary amenities. The host was incredibly responsive and accommodating, making my stay even more pleasant. If you're looking for a serene and comfortable stay in Maui, this is an excellent choice.

My husband and I stayed after getting married in Wailea. The communication with our hosts was great, we were happily impressed by the condo all around— everything we may need was there and then some. The neighbors were friendly, and there were love birds gathering everyday in front of the patio which was an adorable sight. Everything I like for a comfortable stay, this place had. Bed, water pressure, a/c all as advertised and better. The view was beautiful, would definitely stay again. Thank you Joseph and Roopa!

On my flight to Maui, I was chatting with an older gentleman who lives on the island. Multiple times he warned me “don’t fall in love”. I responded politely, but thought to myself “yeah, yeah. I live in South Florida. Beautiful women are a dime a dozen”. The moment I arrived at the Hale Kai O Kihei property, opened the blinds and stepped out onto the balcony, I immediately realized the old man was not warning me about falling in love with a woman, he was warning me about falling in love with the island. The property was perfect. Zero complaints. Read all the other 5 star reviews if you want to learn about property. Kihei is the perfect little town. It has small town vibes with a slight tourist influence. No major tourist traps here. All along the SW coast is perfect for experiencing Maui’s tropical waters. Surfing and kayaking in Kihei and world class shore diving in Wailea-Makena. Clear water full of beautiful coral and curious marine life. Sea turtles galore. These waters put the Florida Keys to shame. My main purpose for this review is to let people know MAUI IS OPEN. The island cries for Lahaina. The town is destroyed, but it’s a very small area. The rest of Maui is drowning as the media scares tourist away from the island. Come visit. Experience the magic for yourself. But I have you warn you, don’t fall in love.

My husband and I wanted to experience Maui without being a part of the crowded resorts and still have a comfortable and beautiful place to come to at the end of the day. This place was exactly what we were looking for. It’s central location is perfect to get to any of the beaches/cities you want to visit while in Maui. The property itself is very well kept and the landscaping and pool area are out of a magazine. The beach is a short walk across the street and you almost have it to yourself most days. We saw Hawaiian green turtles basking in the beach every afternoon and you will see a dozen more swimming around in the water. You truly get a real feel for Hawaii instead of a cookie cutter hotel room or condo. The house has everything you need and then some. It was so nice to be able to use their umbrella and beach chairs instead of renting or buying them. It was very clean, beds were comfortable, and the finishes in the home are beautiful. The owners were great communicators and very hospitable. They left us fresh mangoes and even offered us some fresh fish they caught. I can’t say enough great things! Mahalo to Amber and Jeremy!
