Best Vacation Ever!

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: The unit was clean and well equipped. The view cannot be beat, especially watching the whales in the distance (they come to Maui Dec-Mar). With the full kitchen we were able to eat in a lot. The bed was comfy and the shower worked well. There's no AC but a good fan and open windows was mostly enough. Valerie in the front office is friendly and responsive. The grounds and pool are well kept. Instructions were clear and helpful. I would definitely stay again!

Home in Paradise

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: The location of the Hale Kai Oceanfront Condominiums is fantastic, right on the ocean with a park right next to you. We would like to thank both Valeries who work in the office, they were wonderful. They helped with booking our reservation, staying in contact, providing helpful tips, and being available onsite to answer questions, provide guidance, and help me locate my lost watch. We loved our unit 215. The unit had updated kitchen appliances, bathroom, and the owners did a beautiful job of decorating. David, who maintains the property grounds, does an incredible job keeping it beautiful and appealing. We think of everyone at the Hale Kai as family and we look forward to returning soon.

A Little Piece of Paradise

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: Hale Kai is a hidden gem. This was our 7th time to Maui and by far Hale Kai was the best spot. Beach front, small, intimate, warm & welcoming. The unit (215) was clean and had everything you could ask for. We loved the added touches of laundry pods, coffee, treats, post cards...just a really nice touch.

Lahaina Firestorm stay.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. 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 arrived the day of the firestorm. It was WINDY coconuts were falling on the road. We had no electricity or communication and worst no propane (we heard that they've been out of propane for 2 wks) residents were preparing their food going down to the BBQ to find out there was no way to cook their food- We had to toss eggs & shrimp etc. Thankfully Latino mkt opened Wednesday and we got 2 cans of bean, tortilla, cheese to make a burrito which was our only meal on Wed & Thurs - We weren't able to do any of the tourist things & understandably not at no fault of Hale Kai. Don the Mgr? at the condos was as helpful as he could be. The radio kept saying for road conditions go to but that was impossible with NO internet. Don would pass on what he heard. We got a flight out on Friday morning. So please take this into consideration when you read my answers to the question. We weren't able to go anywhere. Luckily the people where nice & the place/view was comforting. I'm sure any other time I'd give it a 5 star....maybe 4 because the propane would have help numerous guest.

3 time in 215. Our home away from home. Perfect!!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: Experience always good however 5 of our days really rained which cancelled many plans. Comfortable and clean and perfect location. Shower could be a lot hotter in the water dept. only fault. Maybe it was just a issue that week. Bed and linen super nice and extra blankets and pillows a plus. We own a beach rental in Cali so love to hear about the comfort aspects from our guess. Will be back. Mahalo.

Wonderful stay at Hale Kai

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: We stayed for a week and a half at Hale Kai 215 in August 2022. The condo was very clean, well furnished and comfortable. The kitchen and bathroom are newly renovated. The kitchen has all the equipment/utensils you need. Even the pull out couch was comfortable to sleep on! The lanai and view is incredible. You're steps from the ocean, sunset side and the pool was a good size and well maintained. Turtles can frequently be seen playing the the waves from the pool deck. We have stayed a few times in Honokawai (this are of Maui) and love it. There's a great little organic market across the street (try the banana bread, pineapple salsa and Lulu koi cream cheese), a fish market a couple blocks away, a food truck area 5 mins walk away etc. Many choices of beaches nearby and lovely historic Lahaina.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Easy check in. Incredible stay - Nothing but good things to say about Hale Kai #215. Property was clean and well maintained. I would recommend this unit to anyone. The undisputed winner in our world were the beaches of Maui. Rent a car and hit as many as you can - you won't be sorry. The Luau's were close and the one we attended was incredible. The real gem was the Lenai at this unit - great view morning and at sunset. We definitely plan on going back!

Back to our roots

Rating Details: The property manager was very 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 started coming over in the late 80s and we haven’t been there for about 10 years. It was fun to come back to see the condos. It’s amazing nothing has really changed and it still has a great feeling that we used to enjoy. There are some things that could’ve been updated and we need to think about that the next time we come over.

20th Anniversary Trip

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: Pretty awesome. The view is outstanding. The condos are located right next door to a beach park, which we used to hang out, snorkel and watch the turtles swim by. The pool was clean and quite for our stay. The lack of air conditioning was no problem, just open the louvers and the ocean air does the job. It gets hot between 2-5 pm so use the outdoor screen on your porch to keep the heat out. This unit was well appointed with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Comfy bed, great kitchen, clean bathroom. Every time we looked around for something we needed, we found it! Cleaning supplies, broom, vacuum, extra pillows, etc. Only caveat; the bedroom window is located by the parking lot and road which made for noisy evenings and mornings. Other than that, it was a terrific stay! Thanks!

Quiet, Peaceful, Away from the Resort Crowds!

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: EXCELLENT experience! We will rent #215 again! We loved this place! The updated kitchen had everything we needed for meal prep. Nice, updated bathroom. Comfortable large bed. Even the pullout couch bed was quite comfortable as it has a thick mattress. It was a magical experience to listen to the ocean lull us to sleep through the screen door . We went to a few resort areas and we were so THANKFUL we were at Hale Kai instead. There were days when we had the pool and/or beach area to ourselves. Coffee and card games on the deck while watching for whales were a huge bonus. The residents and other guests were super friendly and laid back. You can't go wrong if you're looking for serenity! The manager gentleman works very hard at maintaining the pool area and grounds. The barbeque grills are cleaned every day. Eventually the corners of the unit, the baseboards, and the curtains could use a good cleaning but it's not a deal breaker. I saw some bad reviews about the uncomfortable furniture and no air conditioning and neither were an issue. First of all, you're rarely sitting around in your unit because you're always outside. Secondly, air conditioning isn't necessary with the incredible flow of air from the ocean. Convenient shopping is within walking distance. The Farmer's Market grocery store makes fantastic homemade guacamole, salsa, acai bowls, and smoothies. The Times grocery store is within walking distance, too. Bad *** coffee often had a line but we enjoyed making our own and savoring it on the deck anyway. The bus system is very efficient and easy to figure out. If you are used to fancy, expensive resorts this might not be the place for you. If you appreciate peace, quiet and laid back Maui, this is the place for you!
