Aloha! We are the owners of a gorgeous, remodeled penthouse, 1 bd 1 ba (sleeps 3) condo with amazing ocean views inside and out. I to 2 minute walk from beach. It is decorated with a feel of the island throughout. New sound resistant glass balcony doors, windows and ductless split AC makes this a quiet retreat filled with light and extraordinary views.
**PLEASE NOTE: You may have heard about Maui banning some vacation rentals. The County Council is set to vote to ban 7,000 units (out of the 14,000 total units) from renting to tourists starting in July of 2025. Those units were originally zoned "Apartment" and had been grandfathered into tourist rentals. That grandfathering is being removed. The complete list of units which will be barred from renting to tourists is readily available if you do an internet search on "Mintoya List."
Our unit has never been on that list and has always been zoned Hotel/Business. If you reserve from us, rest assured you are in a legal, licensed unit in the appropriate zoning class.
As beautiful as this condo was when we purchased it, we continue to make yearly updates:
Shades that keep the sun out, but let the view in.
Front screen door to enjoy those tropical breezes.
New memory foam mattress. (That many quests ask for the brand as they sleep so good.)
Full size washer and dryer.
Our unit is supplied with all of the supplies to make your vacation as fun and relaxing as possible. Just unpack and let the vacation begin!
The 1st floor of the complex has shops where you can rent bikes, grab a coffee or sandwich, arrange a massage, haircut or pedicure/manicure, pick up some essentials in a small market and plan diving or snorkeling adventures. Maui Dream Dive is a top rated dive shop that can help with any snorkel or dive gear needs. There is also a gym about 7 minutes up the road - convenient drop in rates for travelers. Or just lounge at the on site pool.
Easy to learn to surf here! It doesn't get any more convenient. Rent surfboards and paddleboard gear from the surf store across the street. You are across the street from "The Cove" the best beginner surf spot on the island. Watch your friends and family surf from the lanai while enjoying your morning coffee!
During whale season, the whales will be easy to spot from this top sixth floor "lookout", binoculars provided!
The Island Surf building, in particular, is easy living. A SHORT WALK puts you at the Kihei marketplace and many great restaurants. A GROCERY STORE (Foodland) is an easy stroll. STARBUCKS is another local hangout to enjoy the morning or meet with friends. If you like to watch or participate in roller hockey, tennis games, pickup beach volleyball, basketball, surfing, stand up paddleboarding and be right by the beach we think you have the best location in all of Maui. Kalama Beach Park (across the street) is the place to enjoy these sports or watch the action. We have enjoyed concerts from the lanai. Many local shops are within walking distance for those souvenirs the shoppers love to find. South Maui Gardens-Hidden Food Oasis of Kihei is located directly behind our Complex. Stroll the luscious shaded grounds, enjoy live entertainment, butterfly garden and delicious food. Several eateries and food trucks to enjoy.
A few minutes away is Wailea, with upscale dining, shopping, golfing and miles of beautiful beach.

Sitting on the lanai sipping coffee and enjoying the ocean. What a way to wake up in the morning! The condo was very well stocked (better than our home), Pam and Doug have thought of everything. Just add your food. Very clean and ready for you to enjoy your stay…we sure did. Pam informed us about the South Maui Gardens behind the building, lots of food trucks and fun. Centrally located so you can walk to the beach, restaurants & shopping. Pam quickly communicated with us when we had questions. She also checked in on us to make sure our stay was going well. If you are in Kihei and this place is available, get it. You will love it! Thanks again to Pam and Doug for accepting our reservations. Mahalo

This was my second stay in 603, and everything was still top of the line. The location's convenience has been enhanced by the addition of the adjacent Suth Maui Gardens food trucks and entertainment. The cleanliness and amenities are still unsurpassed. And, best of all, owner Pam continues to demonstrate unflagging concern and care for her guests.

The property is close to everything. Many restaurants, food trucks, coffee shops, beach, surfing location, sports fields, everything, convenience is the key word.
Quite often there is live music and events in the Maui Gardens behind the condo, which is great for activities and fun but its ends early enough to not be disruptive.
Front balcony is positioned overlooking the ocean with a great view but the downside is it’s also on a busy street so it can be noisy if sitting out for a coffee or view of the ocean. Location and view trump the noise though.
The hosts are great and very receptive. The place is well set up with everything you’d need. We’d definitely stay again!

So convenient to beaches and restaurants. The condo is beautiful and the sunsets every night from the lanai were like a painting.

Everything was great! The property was very clean, exactly as described, and the ocean view was wonderful. We could see whales (bring binoculars) from the balcony!

The hosts are as good as you could ask for. Thank you so much for the amazing time.

Everything about this place was great. Place appears recently updated - very well done. Location within Kihei is accessible to everything you could want. Condo was very clean and well-stocked.
The only small downside is you get a bit of traffic noise from the lanai. But that's a product of the great location.
I'd for sure stay here again.

The condo is right across the street from the beach so there is a view. We enjoyed walking at the beach park each morning because there are huge sea turtles to see. The only negative is there is a lot of street noise so it was hard to enjoy the balcony.

We really enjoyed our stay in this unit. Our family and friends have stayed in this complex in the past and have been very happy with their units. But this unit tops them all, top floor, great views, everything you could possibly need for cooking. So convenient, close to shopping, walking distance to the beach with chairs, umbrella, and coolers, grocery store, and restaurants. A grab and go store downstairs. We will definitely come back. Pam responded promptly to any questions. Couldn’t be happier with our stay. Mahalo
