The location was great. The lanai was dirty, and the bathrooms are in desperate need of an update. The mattresses were uncomfortable.
We enjoyed our stay very much! The location was great, the condo amenities were nice, and we enjoyed our view from our room. The only thing was that the one room has zero privacy and very little space from the rest of the rental. The other couple with us couldn’t put their bags in their room because there was simply not enough room.
Spacious, clean, and quiet! This gem was perfect for our family vacation. This family of four (70s+ and mid 30s) found the property well maintained and the rental big enough for us to spread out and enjoy Aloha-style life. Breathtaking views of the ocean, clean and comfortable beds, and easy access to many beautiful beaches make this quiet getaway one of our favorite rentals.
My family and friends enjoyed our stay. The view to the beach front was simply spectacular. I’m sure we saw a turtle each time were in the balcony. Closest beach was just a few min walk away. Stay provided 6 beach chairs and 6 beach towels that really convenient. We used the couch as a third bed and it was comfy enough to get a good sleep. The shower bath in the guest room did not drain the water. It drains slow enough for the water would stay around ankle high. The stay did not have any AC, but the beachfront waves and multiple fans made it comfortable enough to sleep through the night with no covers. Property management communicated in a timely manner with any questions we had. All in all we enjoyed our stay, it was the view to the ocean though that really heightened our experience. We would definitely come back again.
Overall was a great stay! We loved the ocean front views and the pool! The decor and furnashing were tastefully decorated.
The smoke alarm went off during our stay. The response to fix smoke alarm was very quick and the staff was very courteous and respectful. They ended up installing a new smoke alarm to fix problem.
Here are some things we noticed and some suggestions:
Bathroom with bathtub:
- Loose shower faucet
- Clogged shower drain, slow draining
- Sink drain unattached
- Drywall above toilet cracking
- Loose Toilet seat
- Bathtub needed a deep clean. We noticed Orange mold and buildup
Kitchen:
- Dishwasher door hitting wall when opened
- Drawer with silverware hitting oven door
- Need more plates
Master bathroom:
- Screen door does not lock
- Shower door sticking and needs new handle
- Shower stall needed deep cleaning. We noticed orange mold and buildup
- Needs more kitchen essentials like more silverware, salt and pepper, sugar etc. Some condiments like would be nice.
- Kitchen and bathrooms needs updating.
I have no problems with the unit or management. I just wished the there was a beach and that the unit was larger. I fully understand that management has no control over the ocean beating away the shore line. I would have no problem renting here again, just in a larger unit.
We stayed from 1/27/24 to 2/2/24. On 1/31/24, we were at the beach with the children when I received multiple calls and texts from Maui Paradise Properties requesting to install a refrigerator that morning. I replied that I would prefer for them to wait until after we vacated the premises. I was informed that the fridge would be installed anyway. I replied that I thought this was inappropriate, and received the reply, "Mahalo for your understanding." We arrived home from the beach to discover multiple workers in the kitchen. All of our groceries had been removed from the fridge and the ice cream had melted. All the ice was thrown out. This was at the time we were trying to feed the toddlers lunch. The workers left, and a couple of hours later while the entire family was sleeping for an afternoon nap, someone from Maui Paradise Properties came to deliver a gift card and stood at the front door yelling, "Is anyone home?!?" repeatedly, awakening the toddlers from their nap.
In summary, maintenance was performed on the apartment on 1/31/24 which was highly disruptive to our stay. I contacted guest relations asking for a refund on that date and have not heard further.
I rented this property for the view which was awesome. Great price for property. Great view from the bedrooms and the living room. Older property, quiet, nice neighbors. Cons: no beach, (there is a beach 5 minutes down the road) lack of dishes and silverware, no salt, pepper, spices. Not much in walking distance as far as restaurants and things to do. As you get closer to Kaanapali there is more of everything. All and all the place is good, but don’t expect a lot of frills.
Then Condo was a perfect location with the ocean view awesome- it was a great fit for group of five, I would recommend it highly
I loved the location of the resort. Even though they didn't have air conditioning it was perfect. Loved having a washer and dryer in the condo. Beds were very comfortable as well!!!!
