About this property

++BEACHFRONT RESORT++OCEAN VIEW STUDIO++CENTRAL A/C++FULLY EQUIPPED++

Ka'anapali's finest beachfront setting, with a prime location near shopping and activities. Our fully equipped, ocean view studio condo, A-517 is located on the 5th floor of the Aloha Tower, and is accessible by elevator. Thermostatically controlled, Central Air Conditioning, cools the unit . Our condo has a comfortable King Bed with new mattress, and a new Queen pull-out sofa bed. It has been recently remodeled to include new stainless steel kitchen appliances, drapes, carpet and paint. The Resort is set on 11 acres of exotic tropical gardens, along one of the finest stretches of Ka'anapali Beach, just 1/2 mile north of Black Rock. Swim, snorkel, paddle, or sail directly off our white sand beach in warm, crystal-clear turquoise water. Lounge by two adult swimming pools, kiddie pool, or spas, with cocktail and food service from our on-site, full service restaurant, Castaway. Relax in chaises under the trees on the peaceful lawn adjacent to the beach, or grab our beach umbrella and chairs and sink your toes into the sand. Spot Humpback whales directly from shore between November and March. Golf at any of four nearby championship golf courses, or play next door at the Royal Lahaina Tennis Club. Ride the "Free Green Ka'anapali Trolley" to shopping, restaurants, and hotels for entertainment or luaus just south of Black Rock. Enjoy breakfast, lunch, dinner, or the most important meal of the day, 'Happy Hour', at the full service Castaway Restaurant, situated beachfront. Or, simply, sip a glass of wine on our lanai as you watch the sun set over the ocean after another perfect day in paradise.

Blissful Hawaiian Escape - 5 Star Stay
We had the pleasure of staying at Barbara's VRBO in Maui Kanaapali Villas, and we cannot express what a great experience it was. The unit has breathtaking panoramic views of the azure ocean and lush greenery from the comfort of the private balcony. Situated in a convenient prime location - steps to the beach, short drive to shops and grocery stores. Barbara was a great host, ensuring we enjoyed our stay and that everything was satisfying. We felt like valued guests, and her responsiveness to any queries or requests further enhanced our overall satisfaction. Our nine-day stay was a great experience, from the stunning location and well-appointed accommodations to the exceptional hospitality of the host. 5-star stay.

Marvelous at MKV
We greatly enjoyed our stay at Barbara’s unit. The unit was very clean, was just as advertised, and we felt comfortable and welcomed at all times. In our short time in Maui, we made many connections with staff members who were most kind and hospitable. The unit itself had everything that we needed (comfortable beds, tv, wifi, full kitchen with everything needed for cooking or keeping left over food in containers, double bathroom sinks and a shower/bathtub with good pressure and hot water). Barbara herself was an excellent communicator and we feel blessed and very lucky to have made her acquaintance through the booking and staying process. Without a doubt, we would book another trip to Maui and we would absolutely book with Barbara again. The Kaanapali beach that the unit is located next to is a beautiful beach (we feel it is one of the nicest beaches in Maui that allows for swimming, snorkeling, paddle boarding, and whale and turtle watching). The location is also close to restaurants and Whalers Village that is all within walking distance. We can’t wait to go back!!!

Amazing Property, Amazing Host!
We just got back from our 10 night stay and it was truly the best vacation I've had on Maui to date. That's saying a lot because my previous experiences were also very good. Barbara is definitely an exceptional host. Even with a small blip (that was 100% out of her control), Barbara was quick to reply and extremely concerned about said blip. We couldn't have asked for anything more from the property or Barbara. The Condo was perfect for our family of three and had everything we needed right down to spices and beach toys. Not to mention the view! What a treat to wake up to that every morning. The property grounds are so picturesque and the ocean view was so much more than we expected. We can only hope to be able to stay in this condo again! :)

About the host

Hosted by Barbara Rubin

Host profile image
Our family has been vacationing at Maui Ka'anapali Villas for over 30 years. Our daughters, Emily and Dori grew up on this beach swimming, snorkeling, and hunting for beach glass. Our best vacation memories are of days spent here. We feel very fortunate to have had the opportunity to buy our condo, and we look forward to sharing our joy with you.

Why they chose this property

We have loved this resort property for many years. The beach is pristine and uncrowded, and the water is crystal clear and warm. We boast the best snorkeling reef on Maui which stretches 1 1/2 mile north. Our grounds feature 11 acres of tropical landscaping offering a spacious feeling of low density living.

What makes this property unique

Growing up in Southern California, we always loved playing in the ocean. We fell in love with our resort the first time we visited. When we arrive, we kick our shoes off, don our swimsuits, grab our snorkels, and away into the sea we go!
