The Ohana Suite was perfect in every way for our group. It was right off the beach, so you could walk along or sit whenever you wanted and watch the whales and sea turtles. The grocery store and other restaurants are close by so you could walk or have a short drive to anything important. It also made a good base for exploring for us. We never went inside the main house or used the other amenities because the setup at the suite and beach were so good. It was super easy to find and access. It was just as it was pictured. We are already planning another trip back!
Great property and vibe! Would recommend this property to anyone. It’s super peaceful and well thought out and provisioned. I particularly liked the common area where so many things are made available.
We were a group of 4 moms on a getaway. We were all impressed that the Ohana Suite was even nicer in person than portrayed by the photos. The beds were soo comfy, and bedding nice. Probably the most comfortable beds I've had at a rental. We had a blast using the SUP and kayaks. We all would like to return here some day!
I would stay here again, it was a great property. Nice beach, quiet, property manager took care of all our needs. My only complaint is that there was a party that took up all the parking spots. We arrived home after a long day of driving to find nowhere to park and the hot tub, which I was looking forward to a nice soak in after that drive, closed. A heads up would have been nice.
This place is so beautiful. The entire property is manicured perfectly. The ease of access and availability of amenities are perfect for anyone. They literally have everything that we could not pack or forgot to bring with us. We had so much fun staying in the Ohana suite. Everyone that works at the aloha aku were incredibly nice and helpful when we had questions about anything. It was a true home away from home experience. With only 5 total units on the property the size is perfect keeping it personal, private, and separated from the big crowded resort feel. We got to enjoy over 200 whale sightings and many more turtle sightings. We had a large female turtle join us on shore and laid 12 ft from us in the sun for 2 hours! We will be visiting again as soon as our life’s back home will allow it. Thank you so much Charlene and Gary for having such an amazing place and sharing with us.
Well, the Ohana was clean. The couch is a futon. ‘Nuff said. Beds comfy. The extras, such as coffee and milk, came in handy.
Somehow, I’m my mind, I thought we were on the water. Nope. Behind the main building in an apartment. Okay, fine. I didn’t understand that. Disappointing.
The ocean comes into a cove. It’s lovely. The ocean floor is very rocky. Make sure you have surf shoes.
The pools/jacuzzi are right in front of the single condos patios. Awkward. There is a huge front yard. A pool for the windy afternoons would have been nice.
No one uses this huge expanse of grass.
Mahalo and Aloha.
From start to finish, one of the best places we have ever stayed in. You felt as if you had the place to yourself. If you needed any, just call or text. Rooms were comfortable, spacious, cool, reasonable. The beach was in your backyard or a beautiful wading pool and jacuzzi waited for you. All the beach toys you could think of at your disposal, at no extra cost! Breakfast was always available from fresh fruit- mangoes from their tree, apple bananas, homemade muffins and quick breads, danishes, and Maui Maid juices. Laundry onsite at no extra charge!
A great and wonderful place!
Very good experience. The property was very clean and well cared for. Only a few steps from the ocean and it felt very private. The a/c unit in one of our bedrooms was not working so they had a small portable unit a little bit louder than the other one but very efficient. We stayed for 8 days and enjoyed every minute of it. The banana bread was wonderful. We would certainly recommend for anyone looking to stay in a resort quality property without the crowds.
I can’t say enough about this property and our experience both times we’ve stayed. On each visit there have been special touches to the room to really make you feel welcome and give that “home away from home” feeling. It’s clean, private and has all the amenities you could need. We stayed in the 2 bedroom casita which is very spacious and included towels, beach towels, coolers, soap and all the kitchen supplies. The fridge included some morning treats that went great with the included coffee. While this casita doesn’t have an ocean view it is supplemented with beautiful lush landscaping and your own private patio with table and lounge chairs. The beach is not far at all. In the common area you will find beach supplies, chairs and umbrellas. I forgot water shoes and was able to borrow some. They make it so easy! The staff is super friendly. We loved ending the day with the sunset in the jacuzzi. Kihei is a great location on the island. I would highly recommend staying here. I can’t imagine a better place. Thank you for everything and we can’t wait to return.
