About this property

Welcome to our home, Sugar Beach Resort 440. Our condo is a non-smoking, recently updated and professionally cleaned one bedroom, 4th floor, ocean front, end-unit with a side window. 440 is one of few units in Sugar Beach that offers views of sunrises over Haleakala and sunsets without ever leaving the comfort of the condo. End unit condos at Sugar Beach are rare and have a window and are slightly wider than other condos in the complex.
Listen and view the soothing surf from your private lanai with south facing views down the south Maui coast, Molokini Crater, island of Kahoolawe and the southern tip of the West Maui Mountains. The view overlooking the south Maui coast is phenomenal. Sunsets are simply amazing. Our unit faces the beautiful Maalaea Bay, which is part of the Hawaiian Islands Humpback Whale National Marine Sanctuary. Whale season runs from November to May, with peak whale watching from January to March.
Our condo is well-maintained and was recently updated. It has a king size bed with a pillow top mattress and high thread count linens, charging ports on the nightstand, a ceiling fan and full-size closet. The kitchen is fully equipped with plenty of kitchenware, including spices and a full suite of full-size appliances including a dishwasher, microwave, stove, and refrigerator. We have 2 tables that seat 4 for dining indoors or out on the private lanai. Our condo sleeps four as we have a new queen size sleeper sofa with an extra thick Cozy brand mattress. We also have beach chairs, boogie boards and a large drying rack in the bedroom closet. Be sure to keep the lanai windows open to fall asleep to the crashing waves and evening breezes. Beach towels are plentiful, and we provide a premium blow-dryer, soap, shampoo, and conditioner.
The unit also includes:
• Large stackable high efficiency washer and dryer
• Central A/C (not the noisy window air-conditioners) and a ceiling fan in the bedroom for your comfort
• Key less entry system into the condo
• No resort fees
• Free high-speed internet (WiFi) and long distance for US and Canada calls
• Free parking and elevators, allowing for stress-free arrivals and departures
Sugar Beach is great for sunbathing, swimming, snorkeling, paddle or boogie boarding and long walks on the beach. The Resort offers central air conditioning, a heated pool with hot tub overlooking the ocean, children's wading pool and sauna. There is a golf putting green, a well-maintained gas barbecue area that overlooks the ocean, Dina's “Sandwitch” and Bar and an on-site Massage. Ululani’s Hawaiian Shave Ice restaurant is about a five-minute walk down the beach.
See our other Sugar Beach Resort Vrbo at 1006417
You can see all of Maui with Sugar Beach as your starting point. Sugar Beach is a short drive from the airport and centrally located to explore the island. It is in the middle of Maui, allowing for equal drive times to Wailea in south Maui or Lahaina in west Maui. It is the perfect location for somebody who wants to be on the water but wants to see all of Maui. Rest, relax and enjoy Sugar Beach or wake up and head off to Hana, Haleakala National Park, Lahaina, or the Nakalele Blow Hole.

Sugar beach

Condo was very nice and was within a few miles of several nice restaurants. Pool was very clean and well maintained. Beach was great for walking but not so much for swimming or snorkeling. Also do to it’s location it gets very windy everyday from noon to late afternoon.

Suugar Beach, Kihei

Overall, our stay was fine but we were slightly disappointed. The condo was smaller than expected and carpeted (which we knew from the listing). The shower was small and there appeared to be mold on the cover to the ceiling vent in the shower. The window that stayed open in the bathroom was covered with bird droppings. The location was good and the bed was very comfortable. The kitchen was well-stocked and we appreciated having a washer/dryer in the unit. The listing stated one could see both sunrise and sunset but we couldn’t actually see either one completely. Unfortunately the smoke alarm for the entire property went off at 4:30 am and even though the fire department came rather quickly, the alarm did not get turned off for over an hour. Certainly not the fault of the condo’s owner, but disappointing that the condo’s facilities person took so long to disable it.

Best Location on Maui

We stayed for a week and wish we didn't have to come home. I'm convinced that Sugar Beach Resort in Kihei is the best and most centrally located place to vacation on Maui. Even newer resorts don't have the beachfront access and views as this resort. I think we spent most of our time either in the pool or relaxing on our balcony. The king size bed was comfortable, the kitchen was more than adequate, but the bathroom was a little tight. As mentioned before, the location can't be beat. It's fifteen minutes from the airport, around forty-five minutes to Kapalua, an hour to the top of Haleakala, and two hours to Hana. We'd love to stay here again if we return to Maui.

Absolutely wonderful!!

This condo was wonderful!! It was clean and had all the amenities. You could tell it was well cared for. Sofa tended to make you want to nap because it was so comfy :)Sitting on the lanai in the morning with coffee was the perfect start of the day. The canoe club rowing by, the boats out in the water. So peaceful! Oh and the sunsets from that same lanai! Spectacular! The resort had a great pool area and hot tub. It also has a fun sandwich shop/bar. Good vibes!!Bill, the owner, was great at communicating. All questions were answered quickly and that was so appreciated. I would definitely recommend this unit to anyone. You won't be disappointed!

What a dream

We had such a lovely stay in this condo. The place was so comfortable, clean, spacious, and calm...we felt so at HOME. Having the extra window in an end unit gave the living space some wonderful extra sunlight, and we enjoyed having both Haleakala and ocean views. Some mentioned it's distance from the elevator, which is true but not a problem for us. The bed and pillows were comfortable, water pressure good, kitchen fully stocked and so clean. Also some extra toiletries under the bathroom sink, like sunscreen, aloe, etc. There were 2 beach chairs, boogie boards, a small cooler, etc. in the closet to use. PLEASE consider walking down the beach to the nearby farmer's market, bakery, and shave ice shops. It's 5-10 minutes depending on your speed and we regret not doing this EVERY day! The farmer's market had fruit, smoothies, chips/guac, gifts, pesto and noodles, and so much more to have healthy meals and snacks at home, or some nice treats. Having the long beach to walk down (both to the north and south) was luxurious, and watching the sunset each night from your porch or on the lounge chairs down by the beach is a must. The other guests we interacted with in the hot tub were lovely. It's a quiet, friendly, respectful place in general, with a good central location on Maui that places you in between Hana, Haleakala, Lahaina boat docks, Kaanapali, etc. for those, like us, that went a lot of places to see various things. We would love to return again.

Move Over Mary Poppins, This Place is Practically Perfect!

We have stayed at Sugar Beach Resort before, but this unit exceeded all expectations. Who knew one window could completely change an experience!? Being able to watch sunrises and sunsets without ever leaving the condo was absolutely surreal, as was falling asleep to the sounds of the ocean, no matter what room you were in. The spices and personal hygiene items were plentiful and very helpful. There is a hair dryer and straightener under the sink, no need to lug heavy hair tools in your luggage. If you want to completely disconnect from technology, there is an alarm clock in a drawer by the bed, so turn off your cell phone, no excuses! There are two boogie boards, two beach chairs, and two coolers in the bedroom closet, they're in excellent condition! There are plenty of drawers and closet space for clothes and personal items. The dimmable lighting was a very nice bonus as we were able to customize it to our tired eyes after long days in the saltwater and sunshine. The television menus were easy to navigate. The unit felt safe, was adequately cleaned, and the check-in and check-out process was very easy. I'm definitely keeping this property in my favorites, I hope we can return soon!

Great Beachfront Condo

Had an awesome time. Didn't spend much time at the condo or the beach out back but the location was great. This was an ideal location for getting around the island. Could hear the waves at night from the bedroom and great view of Haleakala from the family room window. Host is great and we were able to add an additional day when the airline offered a small credit to rebook.

This is a great place if you're looking for a beach side rental. It's a good size for a couple and the location is convenient to everything. We enjoyed the sunrise and sunset from the lanai. And what a treat to have the ocean literally out the backdoor.

Location and lanai amazing

We thoroughly enjoyed the lanai—we always looked forward to coming back when were out exploring. Though a little windier in this part of the island, we were grateful for the breeze with June heat. The condo is adequately stocked with everything needed, and plenty of comfortable space for two people. Thank you for making your place available for others to enjoy.

About the host

Hosted by Cathy and Bill Gannet

Owner operated. We visited South Maui on our first trip to Hawaii and we fell immediately in love with the ocean views, climate and the relaxed aloha spirit! The pace of life on Maui truly allows one to relax and enjoy the outdoors. We also own vrbo1006417

Why they chose this property

Sugar Beach is close to everything on Maui! We love that it is south facing for sunrises, sunsets and watching marine life. It has free and clear access to a white sand beach. Many complexes have a road and / or lava flows interfering with beach access - not Sugar Beach! Our legs get tired of walking before we run out of beach to walk on.

What makes this property unique

The end unit location feels open, light, and airy. One of few units with a side window it allows for amazing views of sunrises over Haleakala and provides cross-breezes. The living room and kitchen are bright and the bedroom is comfortable and cool. We have easy access to the free parking lot, barbeque grills, pool, hot tub, sauna and most importantly the ocean!
