We chose Milowai in Maalaea due to it's fantastic convenient and direct oceanfront location. It is only 20 minutes to almost anywhere on the Island and we love to see and do it all.
The unit is on the ground floor directly on the ocean and is literally steps to the water. We love having meals on the lanai and watching whales breach during whale season.
Some of the features of the condo include:
- Milowai Unit 106 - Direct Oceanfront - Covered Lanai - Ground Floor Convenience To The Pool And BBQ Areas - Newly Remodeled - Granite Countertops - Tile Flooring Throughout - New Stainless Steel Appliances - Luxury California King Sized Bed In The Bedroom - Air Conditioning - Pullout Sleeper Sofa - Full Sized Washer/Dryer In Unit - 55" Flat Screen TV - Blu Ray DVD Player - WiFi Internet - Fully Equipped Kitchen - Assigned Outdoor Parking Steps From Our Front Door - Pool - Tommy Bahama Beach Chairs - Boogie Boards - Beach Towels
Walking distance to one of Maui's longest white sand beaches, Sugar Beach, as well as the Maui Ocean Center and Aquarium, snorkel tours, and sunset dinner cruises from Ma’alaea Harbor.
Air conditioning was added to the bedroom in February 2020, so the whole condo now has AC.

We really enjoyed the condo. Located close to great golf courses. Also the aquarium and the whale watching tours are an easy walk. We also liked the restaurants within walking distance.Thanks
The lanai offered beautiful sunsets every night and views of Molokai and Lanai. The kitchen was well stocked, if you want to cook. Shops and a few take out places are within a half mile. We enjoyed our stay.
Newly refurbished and well- equipped with a comfortable king- sized bed. Perfect holiday spot for two. Great support from our vrbo contact, Matt. The whole building is well maintained. Being situated on the ground floor right on the ocean was a delight.
The condo was great. We love this location. We were able to walk to the harbor for the snorkeling tour and snacks. We saw turtles everyday we were there, and eanjoyed the beautiful grounds for sunrise every morning. We loved the soft grass and comfortable loungers for coffee each morning. And, having a cooler, beach towels and beach chairs made trips to the beach easy.
The condo was clean and had all the basics. Excellent value for the money.

Amazing place! I would recommend this stay to anyone and everyone!! Has everything you could possibly require and more!
Quiet street, parking space, super comfy bed, and the view...oh man, the VIEW!
HIGHLY recommended!!! 5 stars!
The property itself is well maintained with easy access to pool and ocean. We recently stayed in maui for 9 days with this being our last stop. The owner was great to communicate with and was prompt with his responses. Very centrally located... 20 minutes from the airport, 25 minutes to Lahaina, 20 minutes from Kihei. The condo came fully stocked from beach chairs to an umbrella. We would definitely recommend this place and would love to stay here again.
Great unit, centrally located. No beach access. A short drive to Sugar Beach, a beautiful walkable beach. Not for swimming. Very very windy location. Nice pool. Very well decorated and stocked. However there were maintenance issues to be resolved regarding screens/sliding door and window. Trouble with TV, resolved 1st day.
While the lanai is kind of on the garden floor it's still elevated and has a hedge between it and path (that is not used). So it feels pretty private. Also, the lanai faces more southwest, which is very helpful since it gets windy in the afternoon there. No wind on the lanai (no sunset views either, but great that the lanai is protected from wind (and rain). Condo is well equipped and check in very smooth. If you want to do tours the harbor is right next door. Highly recommend Alli Nui for all tours. I saw other boats out there and they were more packed and looked like ferries.
An absolutely delightful condo that perfectly accommodated my wife and I along with two of our children.
Everything we needed to feel right at home was in the condo. Everything we needed to enjoy the beautiful beaches of Maui was also provided (bodyboards, cooler, beach chairs, umbrellas, etc). The Central location of the condo was amazing and made getting to all of the different area of Maui so simple. Condo is also located minutes from Maui's Ocean Center.
It rained one of the days we were there so we jumped over to the Center and it too was a phenomenal spectacle of Hawaii's sea life (would highly recommend visiting even on a sunny day!
Cannot emphasis enough the GREAT communication by the property manager in coordinating from the time we booked the condo to checking out. Superb job all around!!
I cannot say enough great things about our stay! The view is AMAZING!! The location is very convenient to the harbor. We easily walked to the meeting area for our snorkeling tour. I would absolutely stay here again!
We stayed at this property one night as a stopover prior to flying out the following late afternoon. The property itself was nice. The view was obstructed because there is construction on the seawall which was a little bit disappointing because it wasn’t mentioned. I would’ve been disappointed if that was the place we stayed the entire week. I can tell that the view would have been wonderful. There is a beach within walking distance down the street which was fantastic. The beach chairs and boogie boards and beach umbrella were a hit. Not many places close by for shopping or dinner. Had to drive which was fine. The sliding glass door was off track when we got there but we were able to put it back on. But it was a little finicky so it could use some attention. I would say once the construction is completed, this would be a great place for a couple. My kids are only eight so they thought the pull out bed was fine. When I laid on it I thought it was a little lumpy so may not be great for a full sized adults.

Thank you again!! We stayed in the condo again this year, as we were quite impressed on our first visit....the modern renovations and amenities are wonderful....the views looking out over the bay from the Lanai were always filled with Humpback whales and numerous sea turtles....having the provided binoculars is always appreciated....the dinner ware, cooking pans and basics were available and very useful....the beach chairs, snorkel equipment, boogie boards and BEACH TOWELS all came in nearly daily use....we have found this location to be quiet and yet in such a central location that traveling to Lahaina, Paia, or Kihei directions is all relatively the same distance....can’t wait to return for a 3rd visit

We had a great stay! The location was perfect for taking advantage of the harbor and all the boating fun. We sailed to Molikini and really enjoyed ourselves. That being said, we were really looking forward to being on the water and using the beach, unfortunately this is not the place to stay for that. During the time of year we stayed it was incredibly windy and made us want to leave the area to enjoy the beach. That and the small beach out front has no sand as is not swimmable. The sandy beach is in the harbor without any waves and doesn't feel very nice. So to be fair if you want a clean place with a great view that is centrally located for ease of getting around the island... this is your spot. On the other hand, if you want to hang on the back porch and lounge on the beach all day, this may not be the best spot. I had to change the batteries on the automatic trashcan but they had batteries, the fan didn't work in the bedroom but they had a nice air conditioning and it was really nice to have the washer and dryer available to us.
