Kihei Akahi Condo w/ Shared Grill, A/C-Beach Lovers Dream

There was mouse poo in two places. Stains on the white towels. Pilot light was not lit and batteriea in remote for tv were dead.My cleaning charge was regunded still disappointed.

Lovely place, very convenient. Loved being able to walk right out to the pool. Well appointed kitchen

We absolutely loved the ground floor location and proximity to the pool/ bbq's. If we had been on any other floor we would have had to exit from the other side of the building and walk around to access the bbq area which isnt always easy while carrying food :) The proximity to the beach was a plus for us as well for sunsets and early morning walks. We prefer a couple other beaches south of here for great snorkeling and what not, but those are just a short drive away. The condo itself is a bit outdated, but we dont go to Maui to hang out inside so it fit the bill for us. There weren't any BBQ utensils so we made due with the plastic spatula. My only real gripe about our stay was the lack of toilet paper, paper towels and dishwasher soap. We arrived to one and a half rolls of toilet paper and one and a half rolls of paper towels. We had a 15 day stay and there were only 6 dishwasher pods for the half size dishwasher. I contacted Vacasa to inquire about at least getting more dishwasher pods and they said they only provide a "starter kit". The small amount of toilet paper was definitely not what i would consider a starter and for the price we paid, a dishwasher pod per day stay should have been provided. We had to buy more of course and left behind the rest as well as several rolls of toilet paper. I wonder if the next tenant will get the benefit of it or if it gets pulled to leave just the "starter kit".

The property is beautiful, but the condo is gross. The upholstery needs a hard shampoo. The screen in the door is coming out. The towel rack is loose. The toaster almost caught on fire. There is a stain on the wall by the bathroom that looks like pee.

We love Maui and especially this location as it is safe, familiar and quiet. We always look to stay at Kihei Akahi because it is near most necessities. It is across from my favourite beach on Maui. It was a little different stormy weather this January but this brought waves and shore break that my kids could boogie board with little effort. We got to see many turtles this year. Usually they swim by in the ocean but one was sleeping on the coral right next to beach 2. We also got to see one of 8-10 monk seals who live near Maui on a beach on the way to Lahaina. I love Hawaii especially Maui and want to support those effected by the fires. My kids did Jujitsu at the Lahaina school that was spared from the fire. Wish we could do more but we have our luggage now plastered with Maui strong and t-shirts which donates to those affected. I loved the fully stocked kitchen meaning pots, pans, cutlery, cups with even salt and pepper. Would definitely come back. The lowest level this unit is on allows you to have access to the pool very easily and not have your unit heat up with the hot sun.

The location couldn’t have been better! Quick walk to an awesome beach as well as restaurants and shops. Condo was clean upon arrival. Beach equipment was appreciated but the chairs could use an upgrade and adding a cooler would be fantastic (we had to borrow from friends who had an extra in their condo).

Just wanted better equipment, a wagon, a few more beach towels.

Nice grounds and management, very old tied unit...1980's fixtures and wear and tear...

We have been to Maui many times, but this was our first time in Kihei and the first time we booked a condo. The unit was very clean with easy access to the beach and the shopping area. Having the refrigerator and washer/dryer in the room was Extremely convenient. Being able to gather with friends inside, or on the lanai, with a cold drink and munchies was Wonderful! There was plenty of silverware and plates for all 7 of us. One of the things we all commented on, was the cross-walk light right at the end of the drive into the complex and how nice it was that vehicles actually stopped for the pedestrians. The beach was calmer than where we usually stay, but there were still plenty of turtles, fish and coral to see. All in all, a Great Vacation at a Very Good Price!

It was so great to have AC but the unit is so old it made so much noise you couldn’t be in the same room with it.

Walking distance to the beach, shops, and restaurants, and centrally located so you can take advantage of both south and north ends of the island by car. Bed was comfortable, TV had Netflix, kitchen had all the utensils/dishes/cookware we needed. Beautifully landscaped complex with friendly staff and other guests (plenty of Canadians actually), the ground floor lanai was very convenient for going to and from the BBQs and pool area. Grab bar in the bath/shower combo, wheelchair accessible if needed.
