Beautiful 1BD, Beachfront Condo - Starting at $144.00/night! - Kihei Beach #407

We were visiting our daughter who recently moved to the island so we only spent our mornings and a few full days out of the 10 on the property, but the views are incredible and that's really what sold us on renting this unit. Morning coffee on the lanai, watching the canoe club in the morning, and going for a walk on the expansive stretch of beach was a great way to start the day. If you're looking for a quiet, relaxing stay this is your place. We also enjoyed the convenient fresh farmers market across the street. Condo kitchen was VERY well stocked with everything you need, including storage containers. Only thing I would add is a juicer for lemons/limes to make ceviche with fresh fish from Pukalani farmers market (get there before 7:30am if you want fish).

If you're looking for more activities, there are several things a short drive away. The pool and resort grounds are small and no other activities like the other resorts we've stayed at. Not sure I would recommend for families.

Yes, the wild roosters previously mentioned make themselves heard even with our bedroom windows closed. Didn't bother us too much because 1. We used to own chickens, and 2. We fell asleep before they got started crowing so we slept through it. On the occasional night when I got up in the middle of the night it was a little more difficult to fall back asleep, BUT you can't hear them in the living area of the condo so if you choose to move to the couch/hideabed then the ocean sounds and crashing waves on the beach can lull you back to sleep. Sheets were not provided for this- I'm assuming because we were only 2 people, but I think it would be nice to have the option.

Our stay here was wonderful, the condo was clean, well maintained and well stocked with all the amenities required.

Here are my improvement suggestions:

1. Install smoke alarms in all units

2. Improve reliability of elevator

3. Move smokers corner to East end of building, present location, occupied by one smoker and everyone in the pool gets secondary smoke with the trade winds blowing.

4. Pool hours should be until at least 10 pm, 7:30 pm is not acceptable, same as collecting all the lawn chairs at that time. We are here to enjoy the ocean and the pool!!!

Providing above recommendations are put in place, we will return.

This is a great place to stay. It is somewhat deceiving when you pull in the front of the building, but when you open the door to the condo, the view of the ocean is amazing. We appreciated having two bathrooms, a fruit and veggie market right across the street, along with an ABC store that you can get anything you need. Grocery store is nearby if you need to use one. The rental company was completely accommodating and helpful with anything we needed. We would opt to stay here again.

Facility was comfortable; plenty of added implements to make visit enjoyable; some components were showing wear; elevator is shaky; screen doors to lanai need adjustment.

Beach walking quite enjoyable; easy drive to other attractions on the island; saw dozens of turtles on a beach near Mama's Fish House and several whales from our lanai.

We were warmly greeted when we arrived and the follow-up phone call the next morning to make sure everything was ok was well appreciated. The view from the lanai is the best thing about the place. The unit was very clean and was very well equipped with everything you could have asked for (except for a beach umbrella but with the wind I can understand why they don't supply them). The building is located very close to the road and the bedroom window faces onto the street so there is a lot of noise from traffic and most especially from the wild roosters across the road that crow every morning before the sun comes up.The beach isn't that swimable and very few people were in the water. If we ever return to Maui we will stay elsewhere where it is more quiet.
