Vintage Beachfront Studio Apartment Right On Charley Young Beach
True Hawaiian style is based on informality and lacks pretense. And that's what you’ll find here, a humble home situated on a spectacular oceanfront parcel of land in a mixed demographic neighborhood. The studio apartment has its own private entrance in back of the main house on the 2nd floor. The building is a weathered wood-frame structure and the interior is nicely decorated with a glass-top dining table and 2 chairs, a relaxed seating area with a colorful area rug, couch, and a very comfortable Queen sized bed with an ensemble of crisp linens. There is an ocean view and wood floors throughout, a fully-equipped kitchen, bathroom with bath and beach towels. Amenities include air-conditioning, WI-FI, flat screen T.V., beach chairs, umbrellas and cooler.
Perfectly accommodates 2 guests but can sleep up to 3 using the couch that folds out into a full bed.
GUEST ACCESS The beach is a 30 second walk from the apartment. The spacious front lawn facing the ocean is yours to use anytime. Enjoy lounging in the hammock and gazing up at the coconut trees. A BBQ grill is available in the backyard and can be accessed under the stairs. ALL GAS TANKS AND GRILL SWITCHES MUST BE TURNED OFF AFTER EACH USE. The area past the grill along the side of main house is off limits and a private area for owner use only.
THE NEIGHBORHOOD Charley Young Beach Park is well known for it's gentle surf and perfect for swimming, snorkeling, stand up paddle, fishing, and there's miles of sandy beach to walk in either direction.
The studio faces the ocean and runs adjacent to the street below, next to the entrance of a popular beach park so factor in a bit of noise- people, bicycles, mopeds and vehicles. If beach park activity makes you happy, the location just doesn’t get any better than this. Most everything is within walking distance to the beach house- grocery stores, farmers markets, coffee shops, cafes, restaurants and fine dining, shopping, entertainment, and all the accoutrements you can think for a comfortable stay.
BEFORE YOU BOOK WITH US: Please take notice of our cancellation policies. We STRONGLY recommend that you get travel insurance to protect your financial investment in case you need to cancel your stay with us. Your careful planning and consideration in this matter is very much appreciated.
And lastly, remember that Hawaii is located in the sub tropics where plants, birds and insects are all a part of the natural environment. We go through great lengths to clean and keep the studio bug free. Still, you may see an occasional critter. If you stay with us, you can help by emptying your trash everyday and not leaving any food out.
E Komo Mai! Welcome! We hope our guests enjoy the studio's vintage charm and the incredible beachfront property.

It could have had more teaspoons and the carpet needed cleaning as did the curtains. There were lots of shops and restaurants within walking distance which is nice. The access to the beach was great and so close. We met a lot of nice people including the host, Derek.
What a perfect little spot to land in Kīhei, right on Charlie Young Beach! The studio has everything you need with the perk of a very comfortable bed. We loved sitting on the balcony in the morning, sipping our coffee. We loved lounging under the Palm Trees, listening to life on Maui. We can’t wait to go back!
Great spot near Charlie Young Beach ... location, location, location!! Cute studio that had all the necessary kitchenware and supplies for our stay. Loved sitting on the balcony listening to the ocean and birds. So relaxing!
We had a great time here- the location is hard to beat, just steps from the beach and within easy walking distance to the main drag and many amenities. The host was great, very welcoming, and it was a great touch to offer beach chairs/umbrellas/coolers for us to use during our stay. The studio suite itself was well equipped, clean and suited our needs perfectly. As others have said, there’s a bit of street noise, but we used earplugs and had zero issues, slept great. Would definitely return and can highly recommend.
My wife and I stayed here for 2 weeks beginning of MayIt was perfect for what we were looking for. Proximity to Charlie Young Beach and the rest of Kihei's beaches as well as Mckenna State Park. Shops, restaurants and a pub all walking distance. Derrick the owner was very helpful and knowledeable with the area and historyWe will be back!
Had an amazing time staying at this beautiful condo right on the beach… Perfect amount of amenities nearby and the place was very very clean. Highly recommend would absolutely stay there again… Sad to be leaving Maui looking forward to returning..
You couldn’t get a better location, right on the beach, beautiful! The place is vintage, which is good, only problem is the windows are very thin so hear the street beside and the neighbours. Would definitely stay there again.
Older style practical unit in great location. Perfect for couple. A bit cosy for 3. Food trucks in gardens good value. Swim between flags advisable. Walk to kihei or kamaole for shopping. We were comfortable with no car
Always great to stay here. I'm about 2 houses down from where my son lives and this condo is just perfect when I'm in Kihei. Close to everything and the little deck overlooking Charlie Young Beach is the best. This place is my first choice when looking for a place to stay in Kihei.
We enjoyed the location and feeling of this place. No need to put on shoes to walk to the beach.....Priceless!
The owner lives close by and is very responsive. we would definately recommend this place to family and friends.
Beautiful spot with being close to the beach , owners very pleasant but did not see them much. Only unsatisfied with the loud street noise and other tenant in building had loud motorcycle leaving at early hours.
One aspect of this VRBO that I valued was the proximity not only to a great beach, but some tide pools and beach walks. We cooked our own meals a lot but there were several establishments walking distance away.
This property on Charley Young Beach was a minute to beach. Full kitchen with all you need- small lanai for use of two people which overlooked the water. The owners has use of beach equipment and use of outdoor tables in the back yard close to beach to eat on at anytime. Walking distance to ABC store and other shopping district with restaurants. I’ll consider returning next trip to Hawaii- no doubt.
This place turned out to be just perfect for us, supplying us with exactly what was needed...beach towels, beach chairs and an umbrella. Quick walk to the beach and short walks to local stores and restaurants. My only regret...we stayed so busy throughout the week, we never did meet our hosts in person. I was looking forward to that. Anyway, a big thank you to them for providing our perfect vacation get away!

nice rental after dark a different vibe
This property was clean and comfortable, however while we understand the host have no control of what happens out our windows 4 out of 7 nights the police were outside (entrance of beach) with full lights flashing, then two of the nights there was a vagrant (?) loudly swearing up a storm, seeming talking/yelling at his self. We enjoyed our stay and the beach was lovely but after dark it felt sketchy.

About the host
Hosted by Derrick & Arlene Salomon
My husband Derrick was born and raised on Maui in this house. He is a Real Estate Agent, an amazing Chef and has been in the hospitality business for many years. I've been on Maui for over 30 years and work as a landscape and interior designer. We both love to hike & botanize, cook & entertain, farm & garden, and watch T.V. in each others arms.
Why they chose this property
This is the original Charley Young Beach House. The property has been in the family for generations and is situated at the entrance to one of the best beach parks on Maui, Charley Young Beach, which is named our grandfather, Charley Young, who came to Hawai'i in 1932 as a military reporter to cover the infamous Massie Trial. Settling on Maui, he purchased this oceanfront parcel and built a house for himself and his wife, Betty, and became a well known public figure and reporter for the Maui News and Honolulu Star-Bulletin in the 1940’s and 50’s. The house still stands today, relatively unchanged with all of it’s ‘Old Hawai’i’ charm, telling generations of family history.
What makes this property unique
We offer simple, authentic accommodations next to a busy beach park. This is the place to stay if you prefer a more local travel experience.
