Rental Details

Property Overview

Welcome to Paradise Found! Memories are made here!

Come, relax, unwind, and enjoy the unforgettable breathtaking, panoramic ocean views from EVERY room in our beautiful top floor direct oceanfront, beachfront Kealia Resort Condominium nestled RIGHT ON Sugar Beach, just steps from the ocean. This is NOT a side unit with a limited view! Magnificent expansive west facing view of the neighboring Hawaiian islands of Kahoolawe and Molokini Crater, a popular snorkling/diving spot, from the lanai of #603. Equally magnificent Haleakala crater view on front walkway. The Kealia Resort is a legal vacation rental condominium and IS NOT on the Minatoya List to be converted to long term housing.

Let the waves lull you to sleep every night. Feel the warm breezes and watch the swaying palms as you sip your favorite beverage or enjoy a bite to eat from your own private top floor lanai. In the winter watch the mother whales and calves frolicking and breaching. Let the sun's diamond reflections off the gentle Pacific waves mesmerize you as your body slides into total relaxation. Stroll along miles of sugar soft sand on Maui's longest walking beach. Mirrored walls envelop you with breath-taking ocean views. Kealia is the perfect quiet, private resort condominium for honeymooners, couples, seasoned travelers...anyone!

Next to the Kealia Nature Preserve, so no buildings for three miles to the northwest. Totally remodeled, in August of 2017 with all new kitchen cabinets, backsplashes, Silestone quartz countertops throughout, new sinks, kitchen, faucet, refrigerator, showerhead, linens, towels, kitchen utensiles, etc. We also repainted the entire unit. It's been professionally decorated with bamboo flooring, all stainless steel kitchen appliances (including a new 2023 whisper quiet dishwasher and high-end furniture and furnishings throughout, stripped and resealed tumbled marble tile in kitchen and bath, tub, vanity, vessel sink, huge, full-sized separate washer/dryer in the unit so you don't spend your vacation drying 2 beach towels at a time and totally updated to reflect more of a serene, romantic modern tropical feel. Our photos of the unit are updated in August 2017 after a remodel and show exactly what you will see when you arrive, with no surprises. We have a free state-of-the-art secured N+ wireless router for simultaneous video streaming/gaming on multiple devices like smart phones, computers or iPads, etc. The unit is fully stocked with EVERYTHING most people would want or need from all beach gear to spices, cooking utensiles and ALL paper and cleaning supplies, including those for the washer, dishwasher and bath/shower. We haven't forgotten anything! Both the living room and bedroom TV are hooked up to Spectrum cable and the bedroom TV has a digital over the air antenna if the cable goes down. In 2022 we even got a new high quality Sterns and Foster mattress and adjustable base with wireless remote control head and foot raising/lowering capabilities.

This place is amazing! It was the perfect size for my wife and I. Frank and Sandy have thought of everything to make guests feel welcome, including an incredible welcome basket, filled with goodies.

This place was just lovely! My husband and I spent 9 days here and it was perfect for the two of us. It is a quiet area, which we really appreciated, but centrally located to get anywhere on the island easily. The condo was clean, bed was very comfortable, unit is very quiet (top floor is a plus), stocked with anll the necessary kitchen items and we really appreciated the sweet welcome basket. The view is amazing and we enjoyed a lot of time out on the lanai. A farmers market, shave ice stand and bakery are a quick walk down the beach and we frequented them throughout the week. We would definitely stay here again - recommend the location. (Prompt and thorough communication from owners as well)

Loved the early mornings out on the Lanai enjoying our coffee, the condo was amazing and the views were beautiful, enjoyed lots of beach walks, some shopping and exploring different parts of Maui country, the sunsets from the Lanai were breathtaking, can’t wait until our next trip!!!

We've stayed at Kealia Resort before, but first time in this unit. From the communication with the owners, to the lovely welcome basket, it felt like home. Ocean view, steps from pool and beach. Everyone we met on the property were lovely. We are SO coming back, SOON!

Sandy and Frank's condo was the perfect place to start our Honeymoon vacation in Hawaii! We didn't want to stay at a resort with so many other people especially around the holidays. This condo was the perfect spot for us! It's in a great location in terms of exploring the West coast and road to Hana and the beach was beautiful! You could go for a nice long walk during sunrise or sunset - it's not too busy especially after visiting the busy Waikiki beach! We enjoyed reading on the beach chairs provided by Frank and Sandy! We were lucky to see a whale swimming by quite close too! My husband and I enjoyed the views and meals we prepared to eat out on the private lanai! It was easy to cook or barbecue there! Other residents/guests in the condo building were also very friendly! We appreciated the thoughtful welcome package from Frank and Sandy with yummy local treats! The hosts explained the check in process very well and we had no issues with checking in. The underground parking was a plus! Thank you for a wonderful stay!

This condo has everything that we needed to make our stay wonderful. Every possible necessity was provided and the welcome basket was a nice touch. The location is ideal, especially if you like quiet and long walks on the beach. We are eagerly awaiting the chance to return.

Fabulous well appointed condo with easy access to airport and island destinations. Terrific private lanai to enjoy ocean views from sunrise to sunset. Beach is walkable for miles in either direction. Hosts are incredibly thoughtful and generous. Communication was responsive. Check in directions were clear and easy to follow. Late check out to accommodate a late flight was much appreciated.

Eating meals on the balcony while watching/listening to the waves crash on the shoreline everyday is my happy place! The condo is nicely decorated, the bed & linens comfortable and the owners - delightful! So happy i got to experience Maui in Kihei at Paradise Found

Frank and Sandy, thank you for another great stay at “Paradise Found”. We love your condo. You provide everything anyone could need to enjoy the best beach in Kihei and excursions. Your place is ultra clean and the view is amazing. We will be back.

This condo was everything that was promised in the VRBO description, but what really set it apart from the average rental were the owners Frank and Susan. The personal touch from the welcome basket with all kinds of goodies to the champagne with ice provided. Frank's quick response to any issues or questions was very helpful. The bed is superbly comfortable. The view was spectacular. I mean you are truly so close to the ocean and sparkling clean beautiful beach you feel you could almost reach out and touch it. If I could give more than five stars I would. Thank you Frank and Sandy.

This is our first time on Maui. My mother recommended this specific location in Kihei. She loves the old-school vibe of this part of the island. My husband and I would prefer a more current vibe. The unit is very nice inside. Our hosts thought of everything that one may need. Very comfortable furniture, including the king-size bed. The view and sound of ocean out our windows is breathtaking. We are right on the beach. We face west, so the sunset is visible nightly. It’s a 30 minute beach walk/10 minute drive to businesses. We thought we wouldn’t need a car, even though there is a parking place on site. Wish we had rented one. Luckily, we had many friends also visiting who could ferry us around in their cars when we needed it. Also, we used Uber quire a bit. This was a learning experience. Our hosts went out of their way to make it the best it could be. Even bringing us more coffee pods on request.

This top floor suite makes a great base for a Maui vacation. A long, flat walkable beach, well kept pool, BBQ area and waterfront make the experience beyond the room a most pleasant one while the well kept, very well appointed condo with welcoming hosts made our week long vacation on the island relaxing, and easy.

Exactly as advertised. Very well equipped. Outstanding welcome package. Lots of beach accessories such as chairs, boogie-boards, coolers. Everything was in working order. Fantastic view. Super easy beach access with rinsing shower. Covered, secure parking. Great cross ventilation so we didn’t use the air conditioner. Can’t say enough.
