About this property

Rent a Beachfront Studio in Paradise!

This charming and spacious studio offers your own quiet slice of paradise. Please note that this is a studio and not a one bedroom unit. Take a relaxing stroll across the street to watch the sunset at Kamaole Beach Park II, then return to unwind on your beautifully landscaped, private ground-floor lanai as Hawaiian doves greet the morning. Grill your dinner at the community barbecues, cool off in one of the two pools, or enjoy a match on the on-site tennis court. Wonderful restaurants and shops are all just a short walk away.

Kihei Akahi is a beautifully maintained condominium community, and our unit comfortably accommodates up to three guests. Decorated in a warm Hawaiian style, it brings the spirit of the islands indoors. Kihei is known for its ideal weather—gentle tropical breezes, occasional light showers, and the sweet aroma of blooming flowers. You’ll also enjoy a fantastic, newly updated kitchen.

Once you’ve stayed here, you’ll want to return again and again. We hope you’ll share our little piece of paradise with friends and family—and that we’ll have the pleasure of welcoming you back often.

Kitchen worked out great and so did laundry. The place was totally stocked with everything you need for the beach. This was very helpful! The place needs some updates. The caulking to fill in large holes around the bathroom sink was not very effective or clean. The rust in the tub also needed some updates.
Covering for the holes and duck tape.

Great location, ground floor, directly across from tennis courts and pool. The unit was as advertised and very well priced. The unit is dated but the price more than made up for that. The washer and dryer is brand new and the bed was very comfortable. We didn't use the kitchen to cook but everything was there is you wanted to. I hope to stay again in the future.

Such a cute little place we were able to walk down to the beach walk to some places to eat. It had towels and everything we needed for a fun beach day. The washer and dryer really helped us stay organized because we were able to clean stuff as we went. Perfect amount of space for two people highly recommend doing your breakfast on the cute little patio.

Cozy, well equipped studio that had everything we needed for a wonderful stay in Kihei. At the time of our stay, the kitchen was well equipped with microwave, coffee maker, fridge, stove, oven, pots/pans, plenty of silverware, and adequate plates/bowls/cups to serve 4 people. There are to go mugs. Condo had 3 beach chairs, a few boogie boards, sand castle toy set. Someone had kindly added an egg crate topper to the queen bed, which helped make it more comfortable. The lanai is ground level, with beautiful plants, birds and sun intermittently during the day. Condo is a walkable distance to several beaches, restaurants and shops. Photos include picture of the Lanai at sunrise, blue rolling cart (NOT included in condo, but can be rented from Kihei Akamai Mobility) and shows the boogie boards in the condo.We had an absolutely lovely stay and hope to return. Mahalo!

About the host

Hosted by Harold Gray

Host profile image
Aloha, Tom and I live in the Napa Valley, Calif. We go to our condo at least twice a year to relax and work on the fix it list. We love to wake to the tropical birds singing and feel the ocean breeze through the windows. We watch the sunset nightly from 'our' beach with a glass of wine. We watch for 'coconut dog' and his master who walk the beach nightly. RELAXING is what we do best there, and you will too-no more knots in your neck!

Why they chose this property

FANTASTIC LOCATION, BEAUTIFUL GROUNDS, QUIET, WONDERFUL OFFICE STAFF

What makes this property unique

Privacy if you want it and a social life at the pool if you like. We have met so many great travelers that we see year after year, even some who have stayed at our Bed and Breakfast in the Napa Valley-Trailside Inn
