A Note from the Owner: We live on an island in Ketchikan, Alaska, and our family has been visiting Maui for 35 years. Sugar Beach is truly the best—every day, we walk along the 7-mile stretch of white sand, swim a mile in the ocean right out front each morning, and boogie board in the waves. The kids love swimming laps in the pool and snorkeling with the green sea turtles. We take pride in maintaining and upgrading our home away from home every year. The kitchen is fully stocked, the beds are comfortable, and the ocean view is simply breathtaking. Paradise found—you’ll enjoy every moment here.

This penthouse is a superb location, and is beautifully furnished. It is so very comfortable, isn’t that what a vacation is about? Overlook the beach and ocean and watch the sunsets and the paddlers going out from the nearby club. Comfortable beds, bedding, couches, and everything you could think of…outdoor dining table, indoor dining table, coolers, beach chairs, laundry, it’s really terrific. Ride the elevator and steps to the pool, hot tub, grills, and beachside chairs, Unfortunately and this is 100% my fault, I did not read the fine print and the per night price posted does not include all the additional charges. So for our three night stay, it was indeed too good to be true and the additional fees (management, service, cleaning, taxes, etc.) pretty much doubled the price for our stay. Again, my bad for seeing a truly gorgeous property and not paying more attention to the full price. Highly recommend; management company is top notch and meets and greets you when you arrive; responds to queries of any sort immediately; provided helpful suggestions and tourist tips. Peek over the balcony and the “Aloha” in the landscaping is right there.

Liked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
Disliked: Check-in, communication
Great location and view. Staff and management were absolutely horrible.
This is a great location. Awesome views and great set up. Check in was difficult. Poor communication on numerous parties from the management side. The condo was clean and nice. When we left we got billed $156 for several towels because they said we used them at the beach. They were the beach towels. Tried to contact management to discuss and they refused to return my calls or emails and have been incredibly unhelpful. Would not recommend staying here due to how they treat customers and their interactions.

We are disappointed to receive this review. We recognize that you experienced challenges with our required check in forms. The towels we charged as there were damaged not because they were used at the beach. The Management & Staff of Alii Resorts

The draw for renting this condo unit was the view in 2 directions, as it is on a corner. Absolutely wonderful ocean front condo, just a few steps from the beach with great snorkeling. Couple things that could have been better, there was no extra toilet paper or paper towels and the decor is outdated! My family enjoyed our stay so much - couldn’t have been a better propert for us! Thank you!

Check in people where not nice when face to face or on phone. There is a promotional advertising paper posted on fridge stating complementary things for sugar beach guests so we called to see what it was very excited and the lady said “it is free to inquire” but its only 5% off !! That is deceitful and rude. It wasted my time to even call. Take it down or post the truth

We stayed in Sugar Beach condo PH12 for 10 fantastic days. Our daughter was married at the Sugar Beach Events 2 doors down and that was equally fantastic. The condo was perfect for 6 of us and the condo was very modern and well maintained both to mention spacious. Love the location and Alii Resorts was outstanding in how well they took care of us. Highly recommend Sugar Beach Condos, PH12 specifically and Alii Resorts for anyone looking for a "fantastic" Maui experience.

Sugar Beach
Aloha, we just spent the best 10 day family vacation at Sugar Beach. What a perfect location for families and we couldn't have asked for a better place to stay than in this Penthouse condo!!!!! It has two large bedrooms and the spacious living and kitchen areas along with the large balcony were ideal. It is modern and so comfortable. Great ocean view and we loved the sound of the waves and watching the people walking the beach. Of course we walked it daily ourselves. If you have a family or maybe two couples vacationing together we give This condo two thumbs up and we guarantee we will come back. We booked through Ali'i Resorts and they kept us well informed prior to our trip, met us at the condo when we arrived, answered

Great value. Nice place.
Overall a great value, and I would consider staying there again. Ideally, I would get a unit that faced the ocean directly, rather than the complex interior.
The complex is older, but you'll only notice this from the layout. The unit itself was updated and very clean and well stocked. The pictures are accurate with a nice pool+grass+beach+ocean view. Plenty of parking. Nice people. Kihei worked well for us as it was centrally located, but be aware that it has a reputation for being windy, and was for us.
Positive experience, we enjoyed it, but consider these few items that may influence your selection:
You can hear mild road noise
There's a constant AC or Koi pond pump hummmmm. Don't know if you can escape this anywhere, but it distracted me from the ocean sounds
One of the bedrooms shares a wall with the elevator, and you can hear and feel it when it's active
Check the location on a map...there's not much around the complex. We liked that, but you may want easier walking access to places and activities.
