DIRECT TO ROOM CHECK-IN: At 1206 The Palms, you go directly to your private condo without ever needing to check in. The same is true upon check-out. 1206 The Palms has a private entrance and stairway, and we do not share an entry area with any other unit.

NOW THE FUN STUFF: The reviews say it all. One of the finest vacation rentals in all of Maui, this condo is located on the coveted inner courtyard of the famous Palms at Wailea. We do our best to provide everything you need to. Travel light, because we provide most of what you need while having excellent access to ALL of Maui and the best beaches.

Location, location, location - Centrally located within the Wailea resort area, enjoy this almost 1,200 sf FULLY air-conditioned inner courtyard condo with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a gourmet kitchen, and a private outdoor lanai that are only a 1-minute drive or 5-minute walk from world-famous beaches and snorkeling. Our favorite daily activity is to walk the two-mile walking path along the coast of Wailea that also borders world-class resorts such as the Grand Wailea and Four Seasons. There is no other walking path like this in all of Maui.

Located in the Wailea resort area and surrounded by upscale restaurants, hotels, shops, and golf courses you would expect on Maui, this condo is also just a few minutes' drive from Kihei and all levels of restaurants, shops, and grocery stores. This location has excellent access to Maui and is only 20 minutes drive from the airport, Costco, Target, and other larger chain stores. We are happy to provide recommendations to our favorite restaurants, tourist activities, and secluded areas of Maui not known to many.
Did we mention location, location, location? Within the resort, 1206 The Palms is located on the sought-after inner courtyard and looks directly out on the large landscaped lawn, garden, and meandering creek, with views of the mountains, beautiful grounds that The Palms are known for, and slight views of the ocean from the private 300 sf lanai. There is nothing like waking up at dawn and enjoying your favorite morning drink while watching the sunrise over the mountains – and then returning in the evening to watch the sunset over the ocean while enjoying your favorite evening drink! A short one-minute walk along the stream and through the gardens brings you to the pool, Jacuzzi, and resort amenities but ensures that the unit is not too close to pool noise.

Do you want to entertain? This unit comes with a fully furnished kitchen with service for up to twelve and an insta-hot featuring filtered cold and hot water. No kitchen is complete without a quality coffee maker, which will not disappoint. Grind your own Kona coffee beans using the coffee grinder we supply and use the Bialetti coffee maker that comes with a built-in coffee filter. With the outdoor wet bar and pass-through sliding window wall from the kitchen to the lanai, the outdoor space and the kitchen feel like one. The lanai has a covered section that includes an outdoor dining table and chairs and an outdoor family room-style seating area that is open to the beautiful sunshine that this dry side of Maui is known for.

Going to the pool and beach is a must, and we provide all the necessities so that you can travel light. Four Tommy Bahama beach chairs, six large beach towels, multiple coolers, beach umbrella, and for the more adventurous - boogie boards.

Want to enjoy the incredible views and whale watching that Maui has to offer? We hope so. We provide four pairs of binoculars. Now everyone in your party (no more kids arguing) can have binoculars when they want them. And maybe you are not so sure exactly what you want to do. We enjoy helping people plan their trips.

Open the sliding glass wall and join the family and dining room to the lanai and outdoor wet bar. Or watch the new 65" 4K TV that floats on the wall so that it can be seen from the family room, kitchen and lanai if desired. Each bedroom includes flat-screen TVs with built-in DVD players. And every TV is equipped with ROKU's, making them all smart TVs. You will have access to YouTube TV, Hulu, MLB TV, and loads of free TV and movie channels that you can record, pause and rewind. And you are free to access your own Netflix, Prime, and other smart TV apps.

Need to get a little work done, play online or print your boarding passes? Free Wifi is included, and we also have a small laptop location that has a direct connection to high-speed wired internet access, an HP laser printer, and two USB wall charging plugs.

Looking for peace and quiet – this second-floor unit ensures there will be no noise from someone staying above you, and the inner courtyard keeps you far away from traffic and parking lot noise. While many of the condos at The Palms include sliding louvered doors that let the noise pass between the family room and guest bedroom, this unit has been upgraded to provide two fully private and quiet bedrooms.

The master suite has large windows the size of sliding doors that open entirely – providing views of the grounds, mountains, and ocean. The master bath is fully remodeled and is a one-of-a-kind bath that rivals any. A granite walk-in shower with etched glass doors and a private toilet area – this bathroom also includes a custom-built closet system, in-room safe, custom cabinets with granite counters, and a makeup area. And we even provide a scale for those of you that are crazy enough to weigh yourself while on vacation. But we highly recommend against it.

The guest bedroom has two twin beds (or we can convert to a king with provided conversion kit), a custom closet system, a large window wall, and access to the hall bath that matches in quality of the master bath. Granite counters and a walk-in granite shower with custom etched glass doors make for a unique guest bathroom.

Wanting to bring small children or infants with you - we make that easy as well. We have plastic dishes, cups, and utensils for kids. And for infants, we also provide a Graco Pack' n Play Reversible Napper and Changer Playard.

Our goal is to make your visit easy, enjoyable, cost-effective, and as carefree as possible. We want you to travel light and have everything you need. We provide hand soap, a blow dryer, and curling iron for both bathrooms. The washer and dryer are full size and include all the soap and dryer sheets that you will need for your visit. We provide hand and dish soap, dishwasher detergent, and kitchen towels for your entire stay, not just the proverbial "starter pack" that other places offer. Have you ever stayed somewhere and wondered just how clean things are? All linens are white, so you can be sure they are clean, and multiple sets of each are provided.

Any way you look at it, this unit provides everything you need for a cost-effective, clean, and carefree vacation. Fully air-conditioned, built-in entertainment features, a gourmet kitchen, an outdoor private lanai with wet bar, and fully stocked with everything you should need for your stay in Maui – you won't find another location that provides the amenities of this unit. Mahalo!
