About this property

Private Oceanfront property w/ Resort Amenities

Direct Ocean Front Condo on Famed Ka’anapali Beach!

Many units at Ka’anapali Shores Resort claim to be ocean front. None are as close to the ocean as ground-floor unit 161! The only things separating you from Ka’anapali Beach are floor to ceiling windows and your own private lawn furnished with lounge chairs and outdoor dining table on a covered lanai! Imagine enjoying beautiful unobstructed views of Molokai, Lanai and Hawaiian sunsets all vacation long!

Unit 161 is a 2 BD/2BA (approximately 1,000 sq ft), air-conditioned unit and can comfortably sleep 6. The master bedroom has a King bed, an en-suite bathroom, and ocean views. The second bedroom is furnished with 2 twin beds (that can be made into a king). When not being used for family TV viewing, the large sectional in the living room pulls out to sleep 2.

The recently remolded kitchen has new stainless steel appliances and is separated to the living/dining area by an eat-in bar. This non-smoking unit has a washer/dryer and tile throughout with carpeting in both bedrooms. The condo is tastefully decorated in traditional Hawaiian décor.

Features:
*King bed with ensuite and window AC unit
*Two twin beds (can be converted to King upon request)
*Queen pull out sofa in living room
*Central Air Conditioning
*Washer/Dryer in unit

Complete And utter Bliss

When we first arrived at our room, we couldn’t believe how beautiful it was. Photos don’t do this room, this location, or this view justice. By far the best place we have ever stayed. We are already planning another trip to book this room again!

Amazing Anniversary Getaway!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay celebrating our parents’ 60th Anniversary. The location of this condo could not be more perfect…easy accessible for our parents…to the beach, pool, parking and very quiet and secluded at the same time! We had a snafu at check in however our host, Larry went above and beyond to make it right and we were very appreciative! We will definitely be returning! Thank you for helping us to make wonderful memories!! Mahalo!

Aston Kaanapali Shores - Unit # 161

This property came exactly as advertised. The location is second to none. The kitchen is very well stocked , there was a great selection of beach toys for the kids, and over all the property was very well kept. We would absolutely rebook this property again in the future.

A Great Condo for Families

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: What a wonderful condo in a wonderful resort! Our family of four loved this place and it’s location. Kaanapali Shores has all the amenities of a larger resort, but is relaxed and unpretentious; perfect for families! For those wondering, the condo comes supplied with hotel size shampoo, conditioner and soap, but you will need to buy coffee at Costco or Safeway before arriving. Bath towels are nice and fluffy. Parking is very convenient to the condo. While we were here in August, there was enough beach to swim, sunbathe and snorkel, but as others have said, there are many larger beaches nearby as well. There is plenty of beach toys and gear provided in the unit and they also rent other gear on-site. You will not regret renting this property!

Perfect getaway

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This location could not have been more ideal for our family of four. Having the lawn for our young kids to run around on, while we could sit on the lanai and watch them AND the view, was perfect. The unit itself had the great space and enough kitchen tools for us to easily cook and eat at home often. The kids absolutely loved the kid-friendly pool as well with it's multi-level entry points (including a nice 9 inch section for our toddler) and water features. We often hit a beach in the morning and then popped over to the pool in the afternoon. The lawn games were a fun bonus too! We felt incredible lucky to have snagged this spot and would highly recommend it (although we don't want too many people to discover it, we need it to be available for a future visit, haha!)

Family trip to Ka’anapali Shores Maui 2.2019

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This unit has it all. Right on the waterfront with beautiful ocean views. You can sit and watch the whales breaching and the sunsets are gorgeous. The unit was clean, had all the emenities for cooking, cleaning, and had beach accessories for use like chairs, boogie boards, beach towels and a beach umbrella. We left a cooler, some beach toys, and some spices, cups, paper towels etc. the unit itself is clean and very spacious. You cannot beat the ground floor as you walk around the corner to the pools for very easy access. Two big pools and chairs everywhere. The dood is good and you can rent anything you need for the beach. By the way, there is no beach in front of the room, it washes away in the winter and comes back in the summer so we were told. Also, they do yoga right next to the room at 7:00am so be aware of people talking at that time in the morning.Awesome place to stay and hang out. Grocery store close, Lahiana is 10 minutes away. I recommend staying here. We had 2 adults and 2 adult kids.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We recently stayed in unit 161 for 13 days and we had the best time! This was our first time staying at Kaanapali Shores and we were pleasantly surprised! We loved that they had a bar with drinks and food - it took the stress out of cooking dinner a couple of nights. We also liked the live music the restaurant had a few of the nights - it made hanging out by the pool and watching the sunset extra special! The pool areas were fun with a good amount of kids for my kids to play with. The beach that is right outside of the unit is a decent beach too! Our first day my husband and kids went snorkeling and saw a turtle and rode some waves. We also collected shells and took a few good walks on the beach and beach path. The unit itself was very nice and well furnished. The best part about the unit is the view - it’s gorgeous and there is nothing better than starting your day with that view! You do get some foot traffic from being a ground floor unit and there’s a beach walking bath right there, but that is to be expected from a ground floor unit. The one easy fix that would be nice to do is connect the sectional pieces together so you can sit on the couch without it sliding all apart-it was impossible to keep the couch together - We will for sure be back! Thank you for an awesome vacation!

Perfect View / Location But...

Rating Details: The property manager was very unhelpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location of this condo on the property is perfect with whales breaching right in front of you. However that is all I can say about this condo. Upon walking into the condo our first night we found a B52 Cockroach right in the center of the floor. After dealing with it we had to try to figure out the light switches which have a battery controlled wall mounted switch. Once we started inspecting everything in the room we quickly found things were not cleaned. The bed sheets had hair & dirt on them in both rooms. We called the property manager to complain about the cleanliness and lights but Harry just quickly dismissed things as normal. He had to explain that the master bedroom main light switch is plugged into the closet wall and is on a rocker switch (really?). Harry said the roach is normal for Tropical areas but I've stayed at dozens of resorts and condo's in the tropics in my time and never ran into a roach. I suspect poor property cleaning is the cause of this (we found 2 more roaches during our stay)! We had requested the two twin beds be swapped out for a queen but the resort only moved the two twin beds together! The twin beds were also very poor quality and I heard one spring break when my husband sat down on the bed (he's only 200#). When taking a shower in either bathroom your feet get a bath as the drains are plugged. If you look up in the master bathroom you will notice all of the bugs and dirt from the years. There are many dated items in the room but the out of place 70" TV that is in there for some reason. Once we checked out it took several emails and phone calls to finally get our damage deposit back (2 weeks!). During our stay in unit 161, unit 160 had a water leak from above. The property wouldn't let the elderly couple move out and into another room without charging them for that room. The next day we saw workers trying to fix the damage and you could still see some of the water damaged sheet rock. Needless to say - Stay

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The location of the unit is perfect steps away from the sand and very close to the pool. Waking up to the ocean view was beautiful! When we arrived we were surprised to find a huge spider web from the entrance of the master bedroom to the fan. It's was minimum 3 ft by 3ft with a large spider with eggs. I contact management which he advised he would send someone to clear. But my husband was able to do it himself. Aside from that inconvenience which was out of management and the resorts control it was perfect!
