Oceanfront Groundfloor Condo: Steps from the lanai/Patio to the Ocean!

This is a good condo but is in much need of some attention and love.

Condo was perfectly located. Unfortunately it neede

We loved our stay here. The view out the patio to the ocean is just beautiful. We loved opening up the door and watching and listening to the waves come in. We were there during whale season, and could lounge on the lanai with some binoculars and watch the wales breaching in the waters. Sea turtles were also swimming around the rocks below. Just an amazing spot! The neighborhood was great as well. We found Bad Ass Coffee just down the street, which had amazing coffee. There's also Miso Phat Sushi up the street, which had amazing sushi. Both within walking distance. It was also a quick drive to Whaler's Village and Kaanapali Beach. Just a great central location.

Incredible location and a comfy place to relax after a dry, sunny day :) which is every day in Maui, apparently. Most areas of the beach were relatively easy to get down to--one of those storms probably took away some of the sand before our visit, but we didn't mind climbing down a few larger rocks to get to the sandy part. If you're like me and want to spend as much time as possible on some sort of beach, there are several other access points a 5-10 minute walk north or south that are just as beautiful, and usually don't have that many other people around. The south one also has a bunch of stores and a farmer's market across the street. On our last day I went to the north beach and a group of sea turtles were feeding so close to the shore that they kept bumping into me with the tide. So, if that's the kind of vacation you're looking for... The condo itself was clean and well-maintained--possibly a bit on the older side?, but all the appliances worked, and Neil was really helpful and responsive the whole time. The snorkeling equipment was a nice bonus. A/C is only located in the bedroom, but it was definitely cold enough for us. And why would you want to be inside when you're in Maui anyway?! (Long story short: 100% recommended unless you hate sunshine and palm trees)

Would do it again.

I was pleasantly surprised that the location and views were much better than expected. I didn't realize there is a small private beach steps from the unit. The pool was stunning with perfect tiny blue tiles and stunning landscaping around the complex.

The description of this property for the picturesque views of Moloka’i, Lanai, whales, sea turtles and spectacular sunsets sitting right from the lanai were spot on. What a great place. We would recommend a visit. The resort itself was very clean and friendly. We did do a lot of cooking since we stayed for three weeks. If I would have a negative to state (since nothing is ever perfect) it would be not a large variety of kitchen items for preparing, cooking and storing food but we really were able to make do. Would that stop us from visiting and booking again…absolutely not. Neil the owner was super accommodating, gave great suggestions on places to visit, and other info as well. Thank you Neil for sharing this treasured getaway.

Just as expected!!! Beach front, easy access. great location!

Beautiful ocean front view! Neil was very communicative and helpful. We loved our stay.

The location was great. The view from the lanai was beautiful! Price was good. It was oceanfront. But there are a lot of things that did not meet up with the description. In the description it says that it was beachfront there is only a steep hill/wall and black rock in front of the condo/property. There is a beach down the way in front of a different building.. Not sure how we were to get there. There was fence between the properties. It also states the condo has A/C. It does but only in the bedroom and did not work very well. It was dripping water by the power strip it was plugged into along with 2 other things. It was also very noisy. There are ceiling fans in both rooms. The living room fan made terrible noises so turned down the speed to low to make the noise stop. Had to use 2 other fans they had to keep it comfortable. There was no hot water, it took about 15 min to get it to lukewarm in the shower(that is a lot of wasted water) so basically took cold showers. Had to heat water in the microwave to do dishes. The front screen door had duck tape on it so it would not latch because if it did there is no handle on the inside to get out. The screen door on the patio door did not lock so you could leave the sliding glass door open at night so the cool breeze could blow in. The paint on the kitchen cabinets is peeling off. Also the TV did not work. It also says it has a washer and dryer making you think it is in the condo, it does not. There is a laundry room in the building some where. You should also note that you have to go downstairs to get into the condo. We did try to contact the owner by email about the TV he got back to us the day before we were to leave. He told us we should of called his friends number because he was out of the county and his phone did not work there. I just prefer email. I guess I should of tried texting. We were only there 3 nights so all the other things could not of been fixed in that short of time. This place has a lot potential. I would not stay here again. This is the first vrbo we have ever rented. If I do it again I will do more research of the property. The picture you see is taken from the property next door I think.
