About this property

Stunning 3br/2ba, Sleeps 8, Direct Ocean Front, 3rd Floor Condo, A/C, Pool

Welcome to Hale Honu (House of the Sea Turtle)! Panoramic ocean views and beautiful sunsets await you from this spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom ocean front home at the Sands of Kahana. This upgraded beachfront condo is literally steps away from the ocean on the 3rd floor. Enjoy incredible views of Lanai and Molokai islands by day, spectacular sunsets and star-filled skies by night.

The Sands of Kahana combines the services of a hotel lobby with the convenience and spaciousness of a deluxe condominium resort. We are located on beautiful Kahana Beach, midway between world famous Kaanapali and Kapalua. It is just a short drive from historic Lahaina town and conveniently located near world-class golf courses, Whaler’s Village and a wide variety of unique shops and fabulous dining opportunities. We are walking distance to Kahana Gateway Center with shops and restaurants including Maui Brewing Company.

The property has several amenities including a main pool & hot tub, kids pool, tennis, pickleball and basketball courts, 2 gyms, a restaurant & bar and gas BBQ areas that are cleaned daily. The Sands of Kahana is an ocean lover's tropical paradise where you can whale watch (in season), paddle board, kayak, snorkel, body surf, swim, boogie boarding, etc.

With approximately 1,850 square feet, our condo is larger than most rentals and has a fully equipped, updated kitchen (including a reverse osmosis water system), bar area with wood countertop and second refrigerator for drinks, Wi-Fi, TVs and DVD players in the front and all bedrooms, 2 lanais', central A/C, large capacity washer & dryer and a safe for your valuables. We also provide an iron, ironing board, hairdryers, beach towels, beach chairs, beach umbrellas. For the little ones, we have a highchair, Pack-N-Play, toys, DVD's, games, sand buckets, shovels and beach toys and floating carrier for pool.

As a corner unit, all 3 bedrooms have views, and none share a common bedroom wall for privacy. The second bedroom is large enough to add the queen size, bed height inflatable to sleep 4 comfortably. It also has a separate lanai. Note: These are real bedrooms – no open lofts. The twin beds in the 3rd bedroom can be converted into a king bed if you prefer. In addition, our place is quieter than most as the open slat windows were replaced with glass blocks to keep out hallway noise.

Cost transparency is very important to us. Please note that the VRBO quote plus the resort required On-Site Check-In Fee (currently $75.00 paid to the front desk on arrival) is the total cost. here are no hidden internet, daily resort, pool, towel or parking fees.

Parking: No charge for additional vehicles. Covered parking is available in each building.

Grocery Service: Want the refrigerator and cabinets stocked when you arrive? No problem! Just ask how.

Early Check-in's and Late Check-Out's: We have options available!

This quote calculator is incorrect for reservation requests greater than 12 months. Quotes may show a nightly rate of $1.00 per night and not the current rate on the owner's calendar. Please send an inquiry to owner if you are booking more than 12 months in advance.

If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to ask. We want all our guests to love it there as much as we do! Hope to hear from you soon.

Lovely condo with a view that can't be beat. Condo is equipped with everything you could need for the beach, pool, or cooking. Plenty of room for TV watching, whale watching, or reading quietly. Spacious lanai. We liked the quiet of the Kahana location.

Great place to stay for families with kids
We stayed at Lisa's condo with our kids and family friends, in total there were four adults and four kids under ten. The condo was perfect for us. There was plenty of room for everyone and the condo was stocked with everything that we could need. The beach was great for the kids and we saw turtles every day! We would definitely stay here again when coming back to Maui!

Beautiful location
The host made this one of the best rental properties we've stayed in. She is so kind and it truly feels like you are visiting a friend. The condo comes already stocked the condo with everything you could possibly need. Im talking paper products, personal hygiene items, snorkeling equipment, beach towels and activities, board games, books, and more. Trust me, they've got it all. Plus, the host is always available to give you suggestions on things to do while on the island. On top of all that, the location is stunning. You wake up every morning and go to sleep every night with the best view. I would highly recommend this property.

Our 50th Anniversary Trip
It was our dream to celebrate our 50th anniversary with our children in Hawaii. It was so important to find the perfect place to stay…and we did it! This VRBO has everything. It’s beautifully maintained, very roomy, and right on the beach. The view of the sunset from the balconies is magnificent! Lisa, the owner, has thought of everything from beach toys to toothpaste to make for a comfortable, carefree stay. We definitely want to return to Hawaii and THIS is the place we want to stay!

Her constant communication and quick responses made this vacation a wonderful experience. The kitchen is fully stocked including espresso machine, instapot, and high quality pots and pans. Boogie boards, beach toys, snorkel gear, coolers, and beach chairs were also available. We will definitely be back!

25th Anniversary
We stayed the first week of May 2023. The condo is absolutely incredible and so is the host!!!! We would rent this condo again in a heartbeat. Lisa was by far the best host we have ever worked with through vrbo. She had an incredible gift basket in the condo to great us. Then she took the time to call and see if we had any questions when we arrived. This is the most stocked condo you will ever find. Lisa has everything!! We went hiking and wanted to pack a picnic she had coolers to allow us to pack the picnic. We enjoyed the beach towels, beach chairs, volleyball, football, snorkel gear!! It seemed like anything we needed Lisa already magically knew and had it available!!! The condo it self it very spacious. We brought our college kids and they each had their own room. The views from the balcony were breathtaking. We already miss having coffee in the mornings and watching the sunrise. The sunsets at night are also gorgeous!!! The location has everything you need a pool, hot tub, restaurant and your own beach. The condo really seemed to be centrally located for everything. We stayed in south maui last time. This location was so much closer to everything. Absolutely an amazing trip and condo!!! Thank you for the wonderful memories!!!

Lisa was extremely helpful by providing us with tons of information and suggestions. I cannot count how many emails we exchanged before our trip. We fully enjoyed the stay, the time we spent on the beach downstairs and the pool. Just a few minutes' drive to other beaches and attractions. Would definitely recommend.

Her home is fully stocked with everything you need and more. She works hard to make sure you are comfortable even left us a beautiful gift basket. Perfect place for family vacation!

Great location
This was an amazing condo. We had a great time. While Lahaina Town & Kaanapali Beach were packed, our area & beach were crowd free. I can't say much for the restaurant on site but the actual unit was amazing with a view to die for. We would watch the sunsets from the lanai as well as seeing the whales playing in the water. Such a great experience. Unit had everything we needed & made our stay all the better. Lisa, the owner, was helpful & readily available to help when needed. Only criticism would be that the bed wasn't that comforttable & new pillows on the bed in the master bedroom would be helpful but we would most definitely stay here again.

Fantastic Stay in Paradise!!!
First of all, the view of the ocean and beach from the main balcony is simply stunning!!! The water goes from an aquamarine color to indigo blue. There are large sea turtles occasionally swimming only 10-20 yards from the shore line. The beach is a very unique gold/brown/black sand that reminds me of walnut furniture! It really is beautiful especially walking a hundred yards to the south. The condo is very well equipped with beach towels, swim gear, toilet paper, plastic bags and wraps, etc. so you don't have to worry about buying those while you are in Maui. The water pressure in the showers was a little low but I think it probably is a water saver feature. There were two microwaves which was nice. Everything worked well. We set the AC at 74 which is the lowest recommended setting. It was ok during the day but a bit warm at night. The ocean breeze as well as the ceiling fans help keep the unit cool. There is a decent size pool with hot tub and bar that serves food right next to the pool. There are nearby restaurants and grocery shopping but prices are high as you expect in Hawaii. Beds were a little on the hard side. Would have been nice to have extra bath towels as we had to wash towels almost daily (we had 8 people) but we don't like to use towels more than once between washes. Communications with Lisa Alpine were very good and she would respond to questions very quickly. Make the trip up the coast 5 minutes to the Westin grounds as the views from the beach (about a 5 minute hike from the lower parking lot) next to the golf course are stunning. I highly recommend going to Haleakala volcano as the views of the cauldron and surrounding area are breathtaking. I also recommend taking the road to Hana and seeing the northeast part of the island (2 1/2 hour drive but it's worth it). The lush tropical vegetation, numerous waterfalls and bamboo forests with balls of leaves at the very top reminded me of something from a Dr. Seuss book. The area around the condo is not as heavily congested as Lahaina which was a big plus. I recommend eating at least once at Pacific'o on the Beach in Lahaina. Really good food right next to the beach with great ocean views! Also, if you make the trip to Haleakala, stop in nearby Kula at the Kula Bistro. Truly great pasta dishes and there is a charming country store directly across the street!!! All in all, I highly recommend staying at this property and hope to make it back some day soon!!!

About the host

Host profile image

What makes this property unique

Sands of Kahana condominiums are known for being some of the largest condos on Maui. This unit, in particular, stands out by offering 2 separate lanais for guests to enjoy. Located right on the beach, its sunset views are unbeatable. This is one of the few privately owned units (many are timeshare) with upgraded furniture and central A/C. Being a corner unit, it is much quieter than middle units.
