This was a great stay and one I would happily visit again. The location was perfect, about a five minute drive to all the best eats in Kīhei and a good midpoint for venturing to other areas (Lahaina, Road to Hana, etc). The host is kind and communication/check in was easy. They even had some beach chairs, towels, and umbrellas which was nice to not have to source! The stay itself was clean, a short walk to a small beach area, and a very nice ocean view (great for morning coffee on the balcony).

Hi James,
Thanks for such a lovely review. Glad to hear your check in was easy. Morning coffee on the lanai is my favorite. Sometimes you might even see a whale during whale season.
come back again,

Penthouse view? Just wonderful! Very clean, and the kitchen is well equipped. Spoke with the Host a couple of times - very nice and helpful! We have stayed in this building several times in the past and agree - this unit is the best we have stayed in!

This condo worked perfectly for a few days in Kihei — the beach towels, chairs and umbrellas were super handy to have, the kitchen was well-equipped, and the bed was comfy. Check-in and check-out were smooth and easy, and communication was prompt and detailed. Would stay again!

This condo has absolutely everything you could need or want. The location is excellent as well for getting around Maui. The pool area is lovely. Can’t see the full sunset from the lanai but a quick walk to the very quiet small beach is excellent. Great responsive communication from owner.

Hi Brittany,
So glad you enjoyed your vacation. Yes we agree with you the location of Kauhale Makai is terrific. It's really easy to get to everything. Also Kihei tends to be sunny when it maybe rainy in other parts of the island. Come back any time.
Condo looks exactly like the pictures! Wonderful location and great neighborhood.

We loved the pool and proximity to beach. The view from the lanai is way better than it seems from the photos too. The checkin/checkout process was smooth and the unit was stocked with plenty of beach amenities. We would stay here again!

We found this property online while searching for a place to stay, It looked good figured we’d take a chance and glad we did!
Place is really clean and comfortable, we had everything we needed even an icebox for a couple drinks while we were out and about!
Very close to the beach it was a great stay, highly recommend it!
An excellent condo with beautiful views and swimmable beach.
Located mid Kihei, you are well located to visit all the other beautiful places on the island. The property has responsive owners and man agent. I would definitely stay again.

Nice One-Bedroom Condo in Great Kihei Location
Kauhale Makai is strategically located just north of the main business district in Kihei on a beautiful beach. We have stayed here before and found our February 2017 stay every bit as good as in the past.
