We recommend this unit for anyone visiting Kihei, it just had a couple quirks for us
This property has a ton going for it - 2 minute walk to beach, tons of meal choices within a 20 minute walk (including groceries), one of the nicest condo pools I've seen, tons of beach accessories, a great shower with generous amenities, and lots of friendly neighbors/renters.
There were drawbacks unique to our stay that soured the first day - the ceiling fan in the bedroom did not function. The window had been left open by the cleaners on a hot day, so we had real concerns abput being able to sleep well (we nearly left). There is not much natural breeze based on how the unit's doors face, and the front room air conditioner was overwhelemed for hours.
Comms with Kathryn went fine and she had the cleaning lady bring a box fan on Day 2 to mitigate the situation enough. Unfortunately the fan was not replaced during our 5-day stay (lack of repair person), so we had to work around it the whole time. (The cranked-up AC eventually worked well in the living room)
In addition, there were 2 other main issues - the dryer knob had popped off enough that a wrench was provided to turn the power switch to run. Also, the garbage disposal was a known issue (though it wasn't needed).
Convenient location, great beach supplies at the condo, enjoyable time and would come back!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Such a great location with lots of parking and everything we needed at our fingertips.
This condo is in a great location near the beach and close to all the food you can eat. Honestly you could stay just here and have a great time. We did venture out, but found ourselves eating at nearby coconuts cafe most nights.
Beware, if you have trouble with stairs this is not the place for you. There are a fair amount of steps to get to the parking lot and back. Although there are some shortcuts through the lawn areas.
All the cooking tools and implements you could need are provided. My only critique is the kitchen knives were chipped and basically useless. Other than that we appreciated all the cookware.
Overall the furnishings were nice, but the linens had some holes in them and we spotted a suspicious stain on the mattress cover. Also all the beach stuff you can think of was provided, this is incredibly convenient and a great touch.
The nearby beach is perfect and not busy at all as the beach parking is quite far away. The surf is calm in the mornings and great for floating.
We did have an issue with checking in where we had to reach out directly. Then with checking out as we didn't receive any details from the property managers until our penultimate day. But once we messaged them they were very quick to provide a detailed rundown of the property rules.
We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again.
My family and I loved our stay in Kehei. We appreciated the town, which is a nice escape from the big hotels that you find in other parts of Maui. We could walk to the beach, literally 2 blocks away, and the condo had plenty of beach supplies for any activity. There’s even a little grocery walking distance away so you can basically park your car and never have to drive, unless you want too.
The apartment is great, with a nice porch to enjoy meals. Note, there is parking at the top of this hill as well as the bottom, which we didn’t figure out until a few days in.
This was an amazing property that I highly recommend. The location is a five minute walk to the beach, shopping, and food. This was an amazing family friendly rental that contains all of the items you may need for day at the beach. The condo complex also contains a really nice pool and hot tub, plus facilities to grill, which my family did three times. The condo is also well stocked with all of the kitchen equipment you may need if you decide do some cooking, which is not always the case in rental properties. The owners are super responsive and were a huge help in directing us towards things to do and see in Maui. I could not have been happier with this property and recommend it to anyone who is looking for a great stay in Maui!!
It’s a walk from the parking to the room. It’s not close to the beach. But the place was very nice and quiet.

Kathryn is an amazing host!! This place is close to the beach to enjoy the sunset and go for swimming. There are nice restaurants nearby and stores. We would love to come back again and stay here. Very clean and beautiful place, everything was stocked up well. Games for kids too. Overall a pleasant and amazing stay! Thank you Kathryn!
Excellent communication. Everything was represented well. Very smooth check in and out.
Trev's Hideaway was an exceptionally pleasant place to stay. It was in a very quiet Condo just of Sth Kehei Rd so no traffic noise, as a result all we could hear in the morning was the birds.
Just across from a family friendly swimming beach & near a great coffee shop & a delicious bakery. In all we couldn't have been happier away from it all, but in the heart of everything including great restaurants nearby including Threes one of our very favourites. We will return
We had a lovely two weeks…swims, beach time and lots of golf! Very central location, great hosts! We will come again!
A great affordable vacation rental right in a prefect location. Everything was wonderful, would stay again.
