We really enjoyed our stay in Maalaea. The view was phenomenal, the sound of the ocean was up close, and you could see whales in the distance. There were some turtles and crabs on the rocks. There are some lounge chairs in front of the building and the palm trees provide some shade if needed. Keep in mind that this is not a beach if that's what you're hoping for. However, there are plenty of beaches a short drive away.
The unit was clean. There is an A/C and fan in the bedroom and a fan in the living room as well as the balcony. Great seating areas in the patio and living room.
It was easy to get a hold of the property manager. If needed after hours, they are usually only accessible by email; we didn't have any urgent requests, so thankfully, this was not an issue. Beach chairs, umbrella, towels, body board and a cooler were provided, which was very appreciated as it allowed us to enjoy Maui even more!
There is a great place for simple meals and some necessities called Maalaea General Store within walking distance. It was a gem and we enjoyed our meals here more than many of the other eateries we tried.
Overall, we had a great stay here. Keep in mind that Maui is an expensive place and given the oceanfront location, it was on the more expensive side of the spectrum.
