About this property

Receive a discount from the listed price by contacting me through VRBO! And YES! Sugar Beach Resort and Maui continue to rank high by the travel periodicals as providing an excellent tropical experience. 📈 THE LIVE ALOHA SUITE is a tastefully designed condo by Stannard Architects, an offshoot of the international design firm Olson Sundberg. It is a reflection of the tropics, well appointed, fresh, clean and lovingly cared for by the owners. This gem has a full view—without the view blocking big wall—conveniently located on the 4th floor near the elevator to reduce walking. The design features maple cabinets, granite counters, beautiful Italian floor tiles, Polynesian furniture, ambiance lighting, island-style woodwork, a comforting fully tiled shower, tropical bedroom furniture and built-in casework, reflecting the historical Hawaiian style. The island artwork is authentic and the unit has more than sufficient necessities. Why pay 2-3 times—or way more—for a hotel in the luxury resort areas when Sugar Beach Resort and the Live Aloha Suite have all the amenities you likely want! Enjoy the sprit of aloha in this condo, as do so many repeat guests.

It is rare to live on a Maui beach. Not many condominium buildings afford that luxury nor will there be allowed any others. You’ll appreciate that when you cast open the floor to ceiling sliding glass doors and take in tropical Maui. The soothing ocean waves and marvelous sunrises and sunsets remind you that you indeed are in a very special place. Your Hawaiian experience is enhanced by the tropical décor offset by the palm trees’ gentle sway from the trade winds. This is a prime location condominium unit. It’s closer to the ocean than most at the resort. It does not have the extended lanai wall, as do so many SBR condos. No extended wall means the unobstructed view is beautiful. The classically beautiful floor tile extends from the living area through the lanai for the feeling of an expanded living area. You are truly on the beach on Maui with all of the sights and smells you would expect. Sit on your 4th floor private lanai and watch the Hawaiian lifestyle unfold before you. Enjoy the outrigger club races, snorkeling, beach walks, swimming, kite boarders, stand up paddlers, eFoils, sea turtles and during the season breaching whales. Or, sit in the air-conditioned living room to enjoy the same scene! This unit is truly “front and center”, yet amazingly private. One feels as if in a beach house without neighbors, owing in part to the hypnotic waves, tranquil setting and beautiful interiors. An added bonus is that this gem is close to the elevators, stairwell and sanitary debris drop, so there are no long walks down the corridor.

Kihei is known for enjoying Maui’s better weather. Sugar Beach Resort (SBR) is located north of Kihei Town for that “get away from it all” feeling. Yet it is close enough to Kihei and Wailea to sample their fares—entertainment, restaurants, and their fine beaches. All beaches in Hawaii belong to everyone and access is required. A scenic drive to West Maui is only a twenty-minute drive away. Neighboring Kealia Pond is a national refuge, which exhibits native flora and fauna. SBR is situated in a unique and rare setting.

Sugar Beach Resort is a "green-minded" community. A significant portion of our electricity is generated from rooftop solar panels. Our beautiful grounds are watered from an on-site well to conserve the precious Hawaiian water. Our pools are heated by solar thermal energy. You might not notice the difference, but they are there because we love the wonder of natural Hawaii and strive to keep it that way! By the way, please keep in mind that as of October 1, 2022 Maui will prohibit the use of non-mineral sunscreens while in the ocean and fines could apply. This law has been passed to protect the reefs.

Come stay in the best condominium in Sugar Beach Resort, on the loveliest and longest sandy beach on Maui. Your stay will be memorable. Maui is a magical island. (managed on island by Maui Condo & Home, LLC)

The condo felt very much like home. The complex is perfect, wonderful pool that never felt crowded, tons of great lawn furniture to lay on both in the pool area and on the beach. The view NEVER gets old. You can sit on the balcony for hours listening to the waves and watching the boaters and others in the ocean. The beach is FANTASTIC for walking and running. Can go over a mile in either direction. Locaton on the island is a perfect starting point to each day.

What a view!!! Can't get any closer to the ocean. Saw many whales from the balcony in the distance - bring binoculars! Clean, great shower with plenty of hot water, very comfy king bed, heated pool & hot tub, amazing central location to more easily reach Haleakala, Hana, the airport, etc. Thanks, Doug!!!

This is the second time we’ve stayed in Doug’s unit and absolutely loved it! The unit is beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The view from the lanai is wonderful and we spent most mornings and evenings out there. The sunsets are gorgeous! Doug is always very responsive and so easy to work with. Management is also helpful. We requested a fan after our first night and they delivered it the same day. We'll definitely stay here again next time we visit Maui.

We absolutely loved our stay here, it was EXACTLY what we were looking for and will definitely book again. The balcony/lanai view alone is breathtaking. This was centrally located to all of our activities. Highly recommend!!!! 10/10

It's all about location at Sugar Beach, and like all the beach-facing units there, it doesn't get more "on the beach" than this. The unit itself had a well-equipped kitchen overall, though no dedicated oven which we hadn't realized (there is a toaster oven & microwave with oven function). Otherwise, it has some unique custom woodwork as per the pics. The furniture could use updates in some areas, but is accurate to the pictures. Beach stuff was provided, which is always appreciated.Overall a good stay and would consider again.

Beautiful and very appropriate design and finishes. It has a well stocked kitchen, which doesn't always happen in rentals, brings us back again and again.

Great 1BR condo right on the beach at Sugar Beach Resort. Directly overlooks the bay with great views and tranquility from the balcony. Close to Kihei and Wailea, which has everything you need. Not far from the airport and other points of interest. Great pool and basically private beach onsite. The condo has everything you need and the bed was very comfortable. Great for two people (couples). Although, it can sleep four, it may be very cramped IMO. Overall, great vacation spot for me and my wife. We wanted a relaxing vacation and Maui and the resort delivered that expectation.

Oceanfront balcony view of beautiful sunsets. Condo was beautifully decorated and fully equipped. Kihei is a nice area with restaurants, foodtrucks, and grocery nearby. Would definitely stay again!

We had such an amazing time! The view and the lanai was all that and more. The pictures are wonderful. The actual view and being there is amazing and a little slice of heaven.
