About this property

Maalaea Banyans 411 - Modern Renovation, Direct Ocean Front, Incredible View, AC

Sleep to the sound of the lapping surf on the shore below Maalaea Banyans 411, which features forever, spectacular penthouse level ocean views from the living room and lanai. Located beach front adjacent to picturesque Maalaea Harbor, this property has a stretch of soft, sandy beach and a vibrant snorkeling reef right out front. Watch turtles and whales (in season) meander by, and enjoy a refreshing fresh-water swim at the ocean front pool.

Ideally and centrally located between Kihei and Lahaina, this property creates a totally immersive ocean experience, steps from the elevator. The condo features cable, AC in the living room, and WiFi, a kitchen set up to prepare and serve your private tropical feast, and a lanai from which to savor the legendary Maui sunsets, or just relax to the rhythm of the ocean below. Permit-only guest parking.

The unit sleeps four in consummate style, with two nicely separated bedrooms; one upstairs, one down. There is an AC unit in the living room, but not in either bedroom. The unit enjoys cooling from the trade winds blowing through the center of the island off of the ocean. Two blocks away, Maui's world-renowned Aquarium, several great restaurants, ice cream, coffee, and other ā€œessentialsā€ await. Don't miss the new 3D whale experience at Maui Ocean Center. Also, there is excellent hiking less than a half mile away, across the west Maui mountains, where captivating ocean views await. Explore one of the island's best-kept secret beaches (except for the locals) a few hundred yards up the shoreline from the property.

Maui vacay

Overall had a great vacay at this condo. The location was perfect for us as centrally located and easy to get to different parts of the island. It is a very quiet area and beautiful quiet beach within minutes walk. We enjoyed eatching the ehales and turtles from the deck each morning and evening which was a nice feature. The condo served its purpose while a few small items could have been checked prior to pur visit such as making sure drains were working but the management werw quick to repolspond and addesss.

Condo needs repairs and updating

There were many issues wrong with the general upkeep such as broken couch bed, sliding door needs repair to track as it was extremely hard to open, virtually no storage in the master bedroom and bed listed in amenities as a king and it was a queen. Maui rental agency did actively work to fix issues and gave me a partial refund as my daughter had to sleep on an inflatable bed.her whole stay except one night. I believe that the rental people should do an occasional inspection of these properties. They did change the amenities list to queen bed. The final recommendation would be to put a dresser with drawers in the master instead of 2 tables pushed together with triangle shaped openings in the front. My husband had to put his open suitcase under the bed because there was inadequate storage.

Overpriced

The pictures are deceiving. The building is very rundown. The elevator is over a year expired on being serviced. The patio door is loud and very hard to open/ broken track, we had grandma with us and had to open it for her it was so hard.You cant have food unless its in the fridge because they have a infestation of ants and they are bad if there's any food. Alot of the dishes we pulled out of drawers and knife block were put away with food stuck to them. Water pressure is terrible making it hard to remove sand from your hair. Pool /beach access closes at 9pm. Overpriced. mediocre and not worth what we paid. There are tons of homeless living on the road right behind the parking lot and the parking lot smells like sewer everytime you go to your vehicles.great view from patio and saw turtles on beach. Beds were clean and comfortable. thatclose m

Overall stay was ok

Our room we reserved was updated as best as could be but the overall property is dated. The hallways are dark and elevator was dated. Maalaea seems to be the most windy part of the island so be ready for the wind. There is only 1 AC in the condo which is in the living area. The back bedroom can get warm, so you need to sleep with the windows open. With the wind and noise from the outside, might make it hard to sleep at night.

Perfect location

Perfect location to explore rest of island. Aquarium within walking distance. Had a couple minor issues, management was right on it. Really should have handrails on stairway going up to upper bedroom and should have a pullout sofa bed that is a little more user friendly.

Great ocean front condo

The condo presented exactly like the pictures. I love Maalaea because it's quiet, on the bay and really centrally located. We treated our son and nephew for their high school senior trip. They lived the lift room and having their own bathroom, the views, breakfast on the lanai and Maui never disappoints. It's walking distance to sugar beach, the aquarium, the harbor and a few shops and restaurants. Great spot!

The View is Unreal!

My sister and I had the pleasure of staying at this property for 5 nights in March. The previous time we visited Maui, we stayed in Wailea, and found the location of this condo to be preferable due to its easy access to Kahului, Kaanapali, Kihei, and Kapalua. It was also very easy to get in and out of and parking was a breeze. We appreciated having two separate bathrooms and sleeping areas so that we could both have our privacy. Waking up to the amazing view was such a great way to start the day. Every day, we saw breaching humpback whales and sea turtles from the lanai. In fact, we took a whale watching tour and felt as though our view of the whales from our lanai was better! The kitchen was well stocked, which allowed us to save some money by cooking some of our meals and eating leftovers. The only drawbacks, which were small, were the noise from others walking past the window of the back bedroom which is located right off of the main walkway when you get off the elevator. And although there were window screens on the windows, when we opened up the windows to take advantage of the breeze and not have to use the AC, huge moths made their way into the condo. These were definitely not deal-breakers for us and we found ways to work around them. We would stay here again when visiting Maui.

Amazing ocean views

This property was just as pictured on Vrbo. It was a beautiful spot to wake up in the morning and watch the whales breaching while enjoying a coffee on the deck. It was a quiet resort which was nice to come home to after a busy day out exploring the island. We found the pool area to be challenging for our 3 young children (10, 7 & 4) to fully enjoy in the way their age category likes to play in a pool as the property managers were very quick to tell them to not jump, splash, be loud or play any games in the pool (eg ā€œMarco Poloā€) on several occasions. It just felt very unrealistic, unfriendly and not very welcoming. The small sandy beach with rocky water access right in front of the property made for easy access to snorkelling (seeing lots of turtles!), paddle boarding and kayaking. Other than the property managements ā€œpassive aggressiveā€ nature, we really enjoyed our vacation at this location.

Vacation of a lifetime

We have never been to Hawaii before. This was our first time… and it was amazing! Our stay at this VRBO made it very easy and accommodating. It was well decorated and updated with the most wonderful views. I woke up early everyday before my family and sat on the baloney and watched for whales. It was my favorite part of the day! We spent most of our days over in Kihei with our friends, which was only a 12 minute drive. The neighborhood is welcoming and clean. We would definitely stay here again.
