This second floor oceanfront condo at the Kihei Surfside Resort is located on the sought after ocean side of the elevator, and in the coveted "2 stack", which are the closest to the ocean one bedroom condos in all of Kihei or Wailea. It has a spectacular view from the kitchen, living room, dining area and lanai. It is one of the larger, 1 bedroom, 1.5 bath units (680 sq ft). The view of the ocean and its abundant wildlife is absolutely breathtaking. Considering its high level of finishing and location, this is undoubtedly one of the finest one bedroom, 1.5 bath units in the building.

The entire unit has porcelain flooring. All the cabinetry was custom made and imported from Canada. It is cherry stained maple, and all counters and vanities are topped with a very unique, light colored granite. Most of the lighting is controlled by dimmer switches.

The oversized gourmet kitchen is spectacular! It is fully equipped with stainless steel Professional Series appliances, including side by side fridge/freezer with water and ice, flat top stove with five burners and warming drawer, quiet dishwasher, multi-function microwave oven, garbage disposer and a variety of small appliances including coffee maker, coffee grinder, four slice toaster, blender, crock pot, rice maker and hand mixer. There is also a large selection of higher end pots and pans, baking pans, high quality knife set, spice rack and ample matching dishes, glasses and cutlery. The corner sink design allows for maximum efficiency and working space. The island has a six foot eating ledge with three barstools.

The living room has a queen size sofa-bed with matching large comfy armchair with ottoman. There is also a large 55" flat screen LCD HD color TV with an HD cable box c/w DVR and DVD player, and of course, a multi speed ceiling fan.

The dining area has an oversized round rattan glass table with 4 matching tropical pattern armchairs.

The large, private lanai has a glass bistro table with two heavily padded swivel rocker chairs - a perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee or a romantic oceanfront dinner!

The entry has a large built in, granite topped buffet with cabinets and a full set of dresser drawers, and a desk area.

The bedroom has a high quality pillow top King size bed, high quality bedding, multi speed ceiling fan, Hawaiian style rattan furniture, plantation shutters, oversized closet, digital security safe, telephone and a wall mounted 32" flat screen LCD TV.

The master bathroom has a full size, walk in shower with a Pulse shower spa system, including rain head, hand held wand/massager and six body sprays. There is an over height vanity with granite countertop. The matching half bath has been finished to the same high standard. Both bathrooms have Kohler toilets.

This condo is fully equipped with fresh linens and towels, hair dryer, iron/ironing board. All units have beach towels and a cooler. Umbrellas and snorkel gear are not supplied, but are often left behind in the units by other guests – no guarantees. The Kihei Surfside office loans out beach chairs free of charge during regular business hours - Monday to Saturday. Office is closed Sundays and Holidays.

The unit has free, wireless high speed internet and free long distance calling to the United States and Canada. It is also equipped with a state of the art Oracode door lock, whereby each guest is issued a unique code which controls the door only during their stay. No keys!

This unit is an excellent choice for guests who are looking for the best accommodation the Kihei Surfside has to offer; a spacious, comfortable high end oceanfront condo with a spectacular location and view of the Pacific Ocean and the West Maui mountains.

The Kihei Surfside Resort is located at 2936 S. Kihei Road, South Kihei at the entrance of beautiful Wailea. This is the desert part of Maui, where the sun shines more than any other part of the island. The Kihei Surfside Resort consists of an absolute oceanfront concrete building of 6 floors and 84 deluxe units with an elevator. The building underwent an extensive makeover during the summer of 2015, it was closed for six months. Each unit received new windows, doors and railings, and the building itself had a complete concrete restoration and paint. There is free parking on site. The resort is a twenty-five minute drive from the Kahului Airport (OGG). Rental cars are available at the airport or in Kihei town. There are also taxis available at the airport (about $50), a shuttle bus and public transportation.

Virtually all of the properties and resorts in Kihei are either located right on busy S. Kihei Rd., or if they are set back from the road - are across from the street from the ocean. One unique feature of the Kihei Surfside is that it is located at the quiet end of S. Kihei Road, AND is set back 300 feet from S. Kihei Road AND is located right on the ocean! Because it is hard to see from the road, many first time Surfside guests say that even though they have visited Kihei many times, they had never seen the resort!

Another unique feature of the property is that we have a 2 acre, immaculately kept oceanfront lawn area with dozens of loungers, with a heated swimming pool and deluxe barbeque facilities. In season, there are daily whale sightings from both the grounds and lanais. In fact, the Pacific Whale Foundation conducts their annual whale count from our property. The building is located at the north end of Keawakapu Beach, one of the most beautiful beaches on Maui (voted Maui's most romantic), where you can walk for miles past some of the most expensive oceanfront homes on the island and the luxurious hotels of Wailea.

Great location in a quiet building. Nice walking trails to beach access. A couple little problems and starting to show a little wear considering it says recently renovated. Still a nice unit close to everything in a great area.

The sounds of the waves is everything! This unit is semi-updated, great quiet well kept complex, friendly front office, and again, the sound of the waves. Person "on call" was quickly responsive when we checked in on a day the main office is closed. Will definitely stay here again. (Con: complex has no shade at the pool, you can drag the chairs to the palm tree shade on the golf-course quality grass)

Loved loved this condo. The location was amazing. Sooo close to the ocean but no one laying on a beach right under your lanai. The views and sunsets were spectacular! Yet….you walked only steps to one of the longest beautiful beaches on west Maui. Can’t say enough about that. Also the pool was so clean and lovely so close to the ocean as well. The unit was clean and had everything we needed down to very plush beach towels. We used the laundry facilities and they were open and airy and clean as well. There was a nice welcome note and snacks when we arrived which was nice. We would definitely recommend this unit to anyone wanting to come to Maui and experience the relaxed feel of Kihei!

We have been staying at Kihei Surfside for over 30 years. Never have stayed at another resort since finding this gem

This place was so beautiful and relaxing, it was stocked with everything one could need. It’s truly a home away from home. This will be where we stay every year from now on

This property is ideally located right on the water and just a few feet from a beautiful beach with great snorkeling! We loved sitting out on the lanai for drinks or morning coffee. The condo is close to Kihei in one direction and Wailea in the other. We can't wait to go back. The unit is well-appointed to cover all the basic needs. Can't wait to go back!

Upon arrival noticed how dirty the tables, floors, counters, shower and appliances were. No a/c, filthy windows. Add to clean my feet every time I got OUT of shower if I didn’t immediately put shoes on. Found mold and live LARVAE in shower /bath area. Will not recommend or stay there again

Every day we woke up and went to sleep with the breeze and noise of the waves. An exceptional location for lounging or accessing all Maui has to offer. I recommend this highly.

Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The lack of air conditioning was problematic for sleeping based on the time of year we went.

Great property with fantastic beach access. Would be nice if there were beach chairs and umbrella to use at the beach that is in walking distance. TV/internet did not work. I should have asked the front office but we decided to just not watch any TV and I had my own portable internet.
