Loved our stay with Perfect Stays. The location on the island was perfect with a rental car. The back patio was perfect to watch the waves in the shade and read a book. Had everything we needed. My husband thought the matress was lumpy. I didn't think so. We would stay here again.

Fantastic place!

We had a fantastic time in this condo. The location was perfect and very central for our purposes (wave surfing at Thousand Peaks, Kiteboarding at Kanaha, two side trips to Honolua and Oheo). The condo itself was cute, clean and well-stocked with everything we could have wanted, including a very friendly ginger and white tomcat who kept coming by for a cuddle every morning and evening. The grounds are beautiful, right on the beach... the check-in was easy after I got the email with the check-in info (which I had to request on our arrival day). Overall, we absolutely want to come back to stay here—very happy customers!

Perfect Condo on the beach

We stayed here for 7 nights and 8 days with my husband and 3 year old son and it was great. The proximity to the beach and pool were amazing. The provided beach chairs, coolers, etc. Made it easy to post up at the beach for a few hours. It was also centrally located making it easy to get to other parts of the island. The area isn't crowded so it was nice to get away from the busier parts of the island. The room and beds were comfortable for us 3. Plenty of towels, blankets, and pillows. We would definitely book thus property again.

Mixed feelings about the Kona Kai

Walking over the plywood with sewer gas coming out made it hard to have a good 1st impression. Then the walk to our condo down a cement block walk wasn't encouraging. The condo was nicely furnished and well equiped. The help and other guest were really nice. The plants were lovely and well attended. All in all we enjoyed our stay!

Maalaea stay

The apartment was nice, but too much furniture and artwork. Simplify! Proximity to beach pretty good, sound of the surf great at night. Our main complaint was the sewage smell. (Outdoors, not inside). There are holding tanks at one end of the parking lot which cast their odoriferous pall over the whole area. Also, Maalaea is not much to write home about.

Right by a state park

Steps away from a beautiful beach. You will see turtles in the water everyday. Right next to a state park! There are a few cons, the bed sheets had stains on them. We reached out and they quickly replaced. It was difficult to feel welcomed with the multiple postings in the condo about if you ruin the towels you’ll get fined etc. I think it has the potential to be a 5 star but, they need to update the condo and take down the postings. We had a good stay otherwise.

Good.....But

Communication with the management company is excellent. The location of the apartment is very good. You are just steps from the beach where you can walk and swim. It’s well equipped with all the amenities you need to prepare a meal. Towels and beddings were fresh. There are beach chairs and umbrellas for your use. When we first arrived, the location seemed a little isolated, but it is only about 15 minutes to shopping and there is small market not far away. A benefit is the location is quite at night. The primary negative is the odor from the septic system as you walk from and to the apartment to the parking lot. The odor can be detected in the apartment if the wind is blowing this direction. This issue needs to be corrected. For the cost of the apartment one should not have to deal with this. Thus why my overall rating is a three.

Nice and quiet. Great place to spot whales. Nice beach. Need to clean the tops of the fan blades. The rain shower head doesnt seem to work. The AC unit needs a filter change.

Okay but overpriced

Close to ocean and nice beach. A less than mile walk takes you to the harbor and some restaurants and a sea museum. Undoubtedly quieter than condos on Kihei Rd. Except that walls are paper thin. Property is older and cramped. Shows wear. Advertised daily rate is misleading because of a large abnormal service charge. Other family members got something at least twice the size and in much better shape for same price. Adequate if better options are booked.

Highly recommend!

This place was awesome! The location was central to everything we wanted to do, and it was a wonderful place to come back to at the end of a long day. We also loved that it was not too "touristy" and crowded. There was a nice mix of tourists and locals at this location. Having the beach right outside of our door and hearing the waves crashing against the shore every night was lovely. We also greatly enjoyed the AC and the fans... they kept us nice and cool on hot days. My only complaint about this place is that it needs a DEEP clean and a bit of updating. The place was generally clean, but there was a layer of dust and some dirt. Overall, I highly recommend!
