I loved the location and this VRBO has plenty of amenities. This unit is aged but it was a great stay. My only issue was with a parking pass. I noticed the tow away signs and that all other vehicles had parking passes in their window. I called the listing company but I was again told that I did not need a pass. I called the main line listed for the facility on the internet and a different realtor brought me a parking pass. I think this is an issue that needs to be addressed so future vacationers do not have this same issue. Otherwise, Kīhei was a great area to stay with much to offer. There are stores nearby to buy and prepare your own food and enjoy with a beautiful view! I was a woman traveling alone and I felt very safe at this location. I would stay here again.
That view!!! The view and proximity to the ocean is the best I've experienced in all my stays so far. This complex is on the ocean side of the road and a small, nicely landscaped yard is all that separates you sand and a long strip of quiet (while we were there) beach. Stepping out on the lanai every morning was simply breathtaking.The condo itself was lovely, comfy bed & couches, kitchen had all the things we needed. We called the office for a minor issue (with the TV) and was resolved quickly.To address a couple reviews I read before we went: yes, the A/C in the main area is sluggish, it doesn't get "cold" (bedroom a/c does!) but we didn't spend much time inside during the day, at night the breeze was sufficient to be comfy. And yes, the water heater is small, but the pressure is fantastic so my showers were quicker anyway. Condo was obviously cleaned, the four stars is only due to wear and tear.Pool was quiet, water felt great!Location in Kīhei was ideal, so much food and shopping right there. 100% would stay here again!
Easy check-in. The location was perfect and the view amazing. Easy access to an uncrowded beach made morning walks enjoyable.As far as kitchen and bathroom supplies, we found everything we needed. The unit itself desperately needs updating. I opened a drawer and the front panel came off. There is a tear in the laminate going into the kitchen so make sure to wear footwear that doesn’t catch. Koa Lagoon is a quiet complex but I would probably consider a different unit.
Truly enjoyed our stay with amazing views. Hope to come back.
You can’t beat waking up and falling asleep to the view and sound of the ocean. The overall grounds of KL are nice: safe and clean. 506 needs a great deal of TLC. Also could use a few more supplies in the kitchen. The biggest challenge is the microwave over the stove/oven. The bottom of the microwave is over my head: I am 5‘3“. I can barely reach it to use it. My mother cannot. But The condo is comfortable and safe.
We were especially impressed with the view. Many times one has to pay a higher premium for the view. The modest price here was nice.
The view looking out to the ocean from the lanai is beautiful but the look from the lanai inside is an eyesore
Bland surroundings with outdated appliances. Looks like there is mold in the corners of rooms and the kitchen was gross and understocked
I was afraid to walk barefoot on the floors
I have stayed here three times, twice in the same unit. Sure, the unit/building is a little dated, but that doesn't bother me at all. THE LOCATION IS PERFECT! And for the price, it can't be beat in my book. If you're looking for resort-style amenities, this is not the location for you. But if you're looking for relaxation, close proximity to town, AMAZING views, and a quiet beach, this is the place! P.S. Go to the beach around 4pm and catch sight of sea turtles traveling to the adjacent cove!
This is now my son and my yearly go-to vacation spot!
The property is fine but the marketing of it is incredibly misleading. When we walked in the door, we expected to see something that kind of resembled the picture on the site and were disappointed that it was nowhere close. We were put on the second floor so while we had a lanai, you could barely see the water (in between telephone poles), and we were right on a busy street. The beach is a close 3 min walk but we thought, from the picture, that we would be on the beach. It was not a problem walking to the beach, however.
The unit itself was fine. It's dated but we knew that going in. It wasn't very clean when we arrived, however (I found an ice cream scooper under a side table), but it was easy enough to clean. You have to sweep constantly or your feet will be black from the sand that you can't help but track in. That's no biggie either. There were plenty of beach-related items and we particularly appreciated the two beach chairs, the umbrella, the cooler and the snorkeling gear.
The security guy we interacted with a couple of times was awesome! He gave some good tips for restaurants and places we could get the best poke and also provided some interesting history about the area.
Overall, we thought it was a good place for the price and it was nice to be away from some of the more touristy, busy areas south and north of us.
I wish I had a crystal ball when making this reservation, if so, I would have done something entirely different. We were supposed to be in paradise and this was anything but…. The condo was not only dated but worn and dirty. The carpet in the bedroom was so dirty the fibers were hard. The room smelled so bad with something that my eyes and sinuses burned. The couch in the living room was torn and the stuffing was coming out of the cushions. The lanai had a wonderful view of the ocean and sunsets, but the cushions on the outdoor seating were so old, dirty and torn that you needed a beach towel as a cover to use them. And that was just the big stuff, I’m sure that you get the idea. Congrats to the photographer, you did an excellent job of making this place look good. To the owner…. It’s time to gut this place. I have never spent so much on a place that was in such bad shape.

This condo is comfortable, locating in a good location and offers a great sunset view from the balcony. It is an old and dated unit, but everything works.
This place was breathtaking as soon as we walked in the door. The condo was beautiful, comfortable and had everything we needed. My favorite part was the incredible patio with unreal ocean front views. If we have a chance to go back to Maui I hope we can stay at this condo and specifically in this unit!
Location was great, lanai overlooking the sunset was every night was beautiful. Lots of water toys available for use. Kitchen was equipped with all the basics.
Unit is dated, cleanliness of carpet in bedroom and unit was not the cleanest. Bring house slippers or you’ll have some dirty feet at the end of the night. AC unit in bedroom is run on a 3 hour timer which requires you to reset the timer in the middle of the night.
Management company was very easy to work with when any questions arose.
