Spectacular Treetop Oceanfront View - Central A/C - Sleeps 6 - Turtles & Whales

Our family enjoyed our stay and the hosts were great and very good with answering any questions we had leading up to the trip. The location is great, beautiful view every morning and we were far from any of the places we wanted to go.

Location is phenomenal. We saw whales and turtles every day with our morning coffee. The owner communicates well. Overall we are pretty happy. Pros: Location - Central to just about anywhere you would want to go. Short walk to boat harbor. View - Ocean, volcano, turtles, whales, New Years Fireworks! Cons: Care - Stairs dirty, toilet paper roll center pin missing, 2 burnt out lights, junk in drawers, master closet full of stuff, one hair dryer didn’t work, knives dull, second floor smoke detector bad, one couch chair is in rough shape. Space Layout - The pictures are accurate but I didn’t realize none of the bedrooms are private. The master bedroom is open to the loft bedroom above. The other loft bedroom is open to the living room. The kids slept right above the master bedroom so if we went to bed later we had to use phone flashlights to get ready for bed. Kitchen - There are no pots, only pans. Other than this everything you need was there. Storage space was the biggest issue. All the cabinets are full. There is absolutely no place to put all your groceries. We had to put groceries under the couch and on random book shelves. Property Rules - This is nothing the owner could control but some of the overall property rules were lame. No noise at the pool. Limited hours at pool. Could not sit in chairs by ocean after 9pm. Overall, not a bad place for a family of 3 plus kids. Location is the best there is.

We enjoyed everything!

Had an amazing time. Loved the turtles on the beach in front of the condo.

Family of six on our dream vacation!! Joe is very helpful and prompt to answer any questions or respond to issues we had during our vacation stay. Provided us with detailed information about Maui. Unfortunately the dryer stopped working, but Joe was helpful to provide extra towels. We loved sitting on the lanai watching the whales, enjoyed the pool and hot tub and were fortunate to see green sea turtles arrive on the small beach in the evening. Would recommend a deep cleaning of the unit. We love the Ma’alaea area central to everything! Mahalo Joe

We watched turtles from the balcony and enjoyed the pool and hot tub. We were walking distance from restaurants and the beach. Great central location in Maui!

Convenient, excellent air conditioning, beautiful view and setting on beach, well furnished, kind and responsive host, close to what we needed, good beds, nice guests, quiet, good parking,

Joe’s property was exactly as described and was the perfect central location for our family of 3. Our 9 year old son loved the boogie board and had a great time catching the kid friendly waves at Kamaole Beach Park 3. The cooler held our picnic dinner that we enjoyed while watching the sunset at the Haleakala summit. My most favorite thing though was to watch the dozens of turtles who would feed on the rocks in front of the condo. We saw more turtles from the lanai and beach in front of the condo than at the Maui Ocean Center! We would definitely stay here again.

Everything about this property and experience was perfect. It all went so seamlessly. Joe is so great to work with and beyond helpful and accommodating. Loved everything about our stay. It was the perfect size, homey, great location, beautiful views. If I was to go back to Maui again I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Joe! Also the property manager on site was so kind and helpful. We had daily chats with him to get tips and pointers from a local.

We enjoyed our stay at Maalea Banyan. Highlights were seeing up to six turtles each afternoon on the reef in front of the condo. The pool is as nice and not too crowded as it is a small resort. There’s a small shopping area close for last minute needs. We would stay here again.
