Review of D602

We enjoyed our stay at D602 as we knew the complex and the views were great. However, this property needs updating and decluttering. I would not recommend this property for families with young children. My grandson is 7 but I still removed a few of the breakables during our stay and then placed them back in place before we left. The bathrooms could use a fresh coat of paint, there are lots of cracks in the ceilings throughout the property. Removal of the popcorn ceiling would help update and make it seem "cleaner". While the beds were comfortable, the view was fantastic, and the property itself is beautiful, this condo would be so much better if it was decluttered. Even removal of the large vase with fake flowers on the ground, hardwood instead of the indoor/outdoor green carpet throughout would be a start. I could tell that it was cluttered from the pictures, but it was the last 2 bedroom available in the complex. We know people that own in this complex and so we wanted their son and my grandson to be able to swim & play together. I wouldn't stay here again due to the clutter - it's just not relaxing to me, and I believe many others would feel the same way. I don't want to put this on yelp because I in no way want to harm the owner but decluttering doesn't cost anything and would make this condo more desirable to many especially families with children.

Amazing view and location.

This property had terrific view and location , however very cluttered and full with knickknacks and stuff. Very little closet space. As closets full or locked by owner. Too much stuff. But view was fantastic.

Beautiful views and a lovely stay!

We highly recommend this condo! The complex is right across the street from Kamaole II Beach, but there is a bit of a walk, maybe 1.5 to 2 blocks since this condo is in the very back of the complex. Very well worth it for great views from the balcony of the ocean, Lanai, another island which is uninhabited, and the West Maui Mountains ( a volcano). There is another good view which is of the main volcano of the island, Haleakala, which you can see beyond the front door of the condo. Due to the small bedrooms and needing to leave the doors open for the A/C, I'd say it is just the right size for 1 couple, either with or without 2 children. There was just the 2 of us and I had looked for a 1 bedroom but there was nothing cheaper with views like this, especially nice sunsets. Great to have beach chairs and umbrella, snorkeling equipment and a boogie board included. Kitchenware was adequate for our needs, the pantry had a little more than we expected and we left a few staples behind. Having a dishwasher, washer and dryer were wonderful too. The host was very helpful in answering questions. You will enjoy it!

Family trip to Maui

The condo was clean. Beds were comfortable. Plenty of towels for the bathroom and beach. There were beach chairs, mats, and a set of snorkeling gear which was nice. The location was great, close to the beach and walking distance to shops and restaurants. Check in people were nice

Convenient Kihei

We enjoyed our stay in this condo. It was SUPER clean. There were plenty of towels, linens etc, but there were also beach chairs, an umbrella etc. The location to the beach and the town was ideal for going out to catch a sunset or eat at a restaurant. Everything was close by. We did not use the pool, but it looked lovely. The only negative about this condo was the a/c couldn't keep up with the 80 degree outdoor temps. We used the fan the condo had, but we could've used a second one for the other bedroom. We definitely recommend this condo.

Great location, very clean, needs new A/C

Positives: location is great, very close to some good restaurants and the beach is across the street. unit was very clean, well equipped with everything you would need including beach chairs, snorkeling gear, and beach umbrellas. The view was nice, you get a decent ocean view and you can see Molokini off in the distance. Cons: the A/C unit is not sufficient to adequately cool the unit and it got pretty hot in the bedrooms. My daughters could barely tolerate the heat at night even though there was a fan in the room going at full blast.

Love this place!

Perfectly located close to beach and shops. Unit has prime parking space and is equipped with everything you will need for vacation including a fully appointed kitchen, lawn chairs, umbrellas, snorkel gear. We ate our meals on the deck where we enjoyed an amazing view of the ocean and Maui sunsets. Staff cleans BBQ every morning making it very easy to grill your favorite dinner while your family enjoys the pool.

Great location , great condo !

We really enjoyed our stay in C518 . The unit is very comfortable with a great view . It has essentially everything you can think of needing while away from home. The only item I was not happy with was the blowdryer . The owner has provided various beach items such as chairs , snorkel equipment, cooler and boogie boards. The location is very close to the beach and many restaurants. All , in all we had a great time and would definitely stay in C518 again!

Best place on Kihei!

This condo is absolutely wonderful! Everything you need to prepare meals (minus food of course) at home and to relax on the beach is provided. The 5 minute walk across the street to the beach is a huge plus. The view from the lanai is awesome! In the neighborhood are several places to eat and a grocery store. Hope to return again next year!

Good location for exploring Kihei and the south side of the island. Good instructions for arrival - everything was spelled out and easy to understand. Walking distance to the beach, restaurants, and (our favorite) the natural foods store. We worked here for two days before beginning our vacation and the internet was fast and reliable as well. Thanks, Joan!

Love Maui!

Beautifully furnished one-bedroom condo with everything you need to enjoy the gorgeous Maui setting. Immaculate and meticulous throughout. Couldn't wait to have coffee on the lanai and enjoy the breathtaking view of both the ocean and the mountains. Great restaurants within walking distance and a beautiful beach park right across the street. A terrific bonus to have two large and clean grills located in the pool area which we used to make some great dinners. Would highly recommend this unit to anyone looking for a dream vacation in Maui.

An outstanding furnished one bedroom unit. The lanai allows ocean and mountain viewing. Excellent furnishings, great kitchen with all appliances, very comfortable bed. Beach chairs, cooler furnished. Only one block to the beach, outdoor pool and tennis courts on site. Two great restaurants just a short walk away. We truly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this property. A short 20-25'drive from the airport.

Very nice condo

We arrived on July 11, around 11PM. So it's not very easy for us to find the parking lot. But that's fine, not a big deal. The condo is facing to ocean view, fresh air, and so on. It is very close to beach. And very close to one shopping center. And very close to other beaches if you drive a car. We stayed for 12 nights. Almost cooked every night. We enjoyed the time so much. We love maui!

ahhh....Maui!!!!

It takes me hours to go through condos and find the one that is "just right" for us. This trip was to visit my son who was currently a resident of Maui. I gave him five addresses to go "check out" and this is the one he chose. He didn't steer me wrong. The location is perfect in Kihei. Walking to the beach and restaurants is so easy. The grounds of the complex have beautiful gardens. The condo itself is set back from the road and central to the pools which made it peaceful. The condo was in fabulous condition with many necessities....beach chairs/mats/towels, ice chest and a blender! The kitchen is equipped with necessary supplies to cook meals. The downfall is you have to purchase groceries to do so and if you've never been to the island you may be in for a sticker shock. I suggest you keep meals simple! Besides there's some wonderful places nearby to eat like Coconuts Fish Cafe and the Cinnamon Roll Place (two places we visited more than once). The one thing that helped make my stay relaxing was the king size bed! Clean and comfortable. The washer/dryer in the condo was convenient. In retrospect we didn't need to take as much clothes as we did because of it's easy availability. Joan was very helpful in answering questions, booking the condo, condo instructions and with a prompt return of the deposit. I would certainly use this condo again!

awesome condo

We just returned from a relaxing vacation in Maui and we stayed at Kihei Akahi, condo C-604. This was our first visit to Maui and first time renting a condo. From the beginning at the time of requesting info, through booking and our stay it was a good experience. Joan returned my emails quickly and answered any questions on the phone. The condo itself was right across the street from the beach and we could see whales out on the ocean from the lanai. The grounds of the complex are beautiful and well-maintained and we took advantage of the BBQ’s available. The condo was clean and had all we needed and more, beach chairs, cooler and ice pack, fully equipped kitchen, comfy king-sized bed, wi-fi, washer and dryer. There were also lots of restaurants within walking distance. We will definitely be back!

Beautiful Condo/Beautiful Property

My wife and I recently returned from a five week vacation in Maui. Sights were awesome, beaches were beautiful and restaurants were fantastic. A good vacation always starts with a great place to stay and this condo was that great place to stay. Found it to be nicely decorated with modern decor, exceptionally clean, had a very comfortable bed to sleep in, a very well stocked kitchen with all the necessary utensils for meal preparation, and all the necessary equipment to spend a beautiful day on the beach which is only steps from the condo. We spent a great deal of time on a roomy lanai enjoying a cocktail, people watching and viewing the ocean. We couldn't get over the beauty of the actual property the condo is located. The grounds are well maintained and manicured, elevators/walkways within the buildings are always very clean, stairways always smell fresh/clean and well lighted, the two pools/barbecues are always clean/orderly/ready for use. The management/employees are always happy, friendly, accommodating and helpful. The beauty of this condo located on this gorgeous property is a rewarding, relaxing experience while vacationing in Maui. We will definitely be contacting this owner when planning our next vacation to Maui. A wonderful vacation experience coupled with excellent accommodations is what a good vacation is all about and this is one you will never forget!

Great value and walk to the beach

This condo is in a beautiful setting, lots of trees, nicely maintained, and a short walk to the ocean. The beach is great for swimming and snorkeling, lots of turtles and fish. Just another short walk away you can find great coral and more fish, turtles. Also a great launch for jogging along the ocean, taking you past some very nice hotels and other ocean front condos. I would definitely stay here again. Well stocked with items you may need for comfortable stay and the owner is very responsive.

About the host

Hosted by Joan Remkus

On our first visit to Maui, more than 30 years ago, we knew
what everyone now knows:

'Maui No Ka Oi'
'Maui Is The Best'

Within months of our Maui visit, we purchased a 'Piece Of Paradise', and have been returning several times a year ever since. We have a love of the islands and are 'True Hawaiians At Heart'.

Why they chose this property

Before purchasing our first property on Maui, we traveled all around the island and loved the South Kihei Area for the following reasons.

- Great soft white sand swimming beaches
- Lots of sunshine - Kihei is the driest spot on the Hawaiian islands with an average rainfall of 10 inches.
- Quiet and peaceful area, yet the 5 star hotels of Wailea are just minutes away.
- Great family orientation
- Close to shops, restaurants and all attractions

What makes this property unique

We love sitting on the lanai and wathching the sunsets.
We also enjoy taking long walks on the beach and visiting some of the local restaurants for lunch and dinner.
Kihei is a great locatation for golf and snorkeling activities.
