Great, central location. Excellent views - so many whales! Unit was nice and clean.The unit was a bit too warm, even with multiple fans and ac running. Couch was broken/ creaky and uncomfortable. Master bed was a bit too hard. Would have been nice to have beach gear available.

Family Vacation

Great whale watching from our balcony! We were in Maui from Feb 12-19. Location was great as it was centrally located for easy access to any part of the island! Only bummer is no beach access but that didn’t bother us as we enjoyed visiting several beaches around the island..

Mahalo for your review of Island Sands 505! We're so happy to hear the condo worked out well for you! The location is ideal for visiting every part of the island. The short drives to the west, central, and south sides of Maui from the Island Sands complex couldn't be more convenient. There is a small beach located a couple complexes down from Island Sands, but we're happy to hear you ventured out to several gorgeous beaches around the island. We hope to host you again soon! Please think of Island Sands 505, AA Oceanfront, and the amazing whale watching right from the private lanai when planning your next visit to Maui.

Really stellar place!

Blinking our eyes open to roaring waves and birds chirping was the best. Centrally located we were able to tour the whole island easily - any way you go the drive is 30 min or less. Condo is beautiful, clean and fully stocked. Short walk to beach access. We grilled out and enjoyed the pool. Checkin was easy. Would definitely come back.

Great place to stay in Maui

We loved staying in Maalaea while in Maui. It's a little off the beaten path of all the tourist locations, its quiet and beautiful to see the ocean right from your window, but it's also close to all parts of the island so very easy to get around. The place had everything we needed - towels, beach chairs, umbrellas. It was exactly as pictured and very clean. Whenever I had a question, the property managers answered super quickly and were very helpful. Would definitely stay here again!

Great find, super clean , great view

We really enjoyed our stay at this property. It is a quaint little condo complex with an amazing view of the Bay, and friendly people. Unit 505 itself is wonderful, newly renovated new appliances, and sparkling clean. It had everything you could need in a kitchen. We cooked several nights and also used the gas grill by the pool, which was kept very clean. We would stay here again.

Quiet, beautiful ocean view, convenient

Functional kitchen and overall floorplan that worked very well for our family. Adult daughter and grandma took the twin beds while spouse and I took the primary bedroom. We loved the quiet neighborhood, beautiful ocean views, and convenient access to all the Maui sights and activities.

Very good stay

Very good stay. No problems with the condo. A couple of considerations about the area - 1. Beach access is limited (small area) 2. Pool didn't seem very clean 3. Nothing much around. Must have a car.
