Island Surf #605 Condo Description:
JUNE UPDATE: New central AC was just installed ! Incredibly quiet !! Individual room climate control.
Aloha! We are excited to share our condo with you for your beautiful trip to Maui and we would like to make your vacation as enjoyable as possible. The unit is supplied with all of the things we had hoped to find in a vacation rental, including lots of spices, new cookware and dishes and even zip lock baggies, tin foil and Q tips (to get the sand out of your ears !!). The goal is to save our guests some expense and eliminate the need for packing such items in your travel luggage.
Our newly purchased and completely remodeled unit in sunny South Kihei is in the heart of the beach town within walking distance to world class beaches, restaurants, bars, and shops. There are many days you may find that a car is not necessary. The Island Surf Building has a delis, dive shop, bike rentals, day spas, surf shop, and other convenient businesses located on the first floor. It is across the street from Kalama Beach Park where one can either watch or participate in basketball, roller blading, skate boarding, sand volleyball, snorkeling, surfing, paddle boarding, and fishing.
"The Cove", located just across the street, is well known to be the best beginner surf and/or paddle boarding area on the island. Rental gear and/or excellent instructors are conveniently located at the new Maui Wave Rider surf store across the street. One can easily enjoy watching your friends and family play in the ocean or at the park from the private lanai.
Whale season is between November and April, and the whales are easy to spot from this unique, top floor lookout. There are no power lines, poles, or other buildings obstructing your view.
Our top floor condo is bright and provides direct, unobstructed Pacific Ocean views and sunsets every evening via the floor to ceiling glass wall in the living room/kitchen. From the lanai you can see the Islands of Lanai, Kaho'olawe, and Molokini crater. New double pane glass throughout the unit provides silence when you want it, and the huge sliding glass door to the 16 foot Lanai brings the outside in when you choose.
Our unit is one of only four top floor vacation rental units facing west that allows viewing the incredible westerly sunsets regardless of the time of year you visit!!
You are also in a great location for day trips to Haleakala, Hana, Lahaina ...

This was an amazing condo for our stay in Kihei. The view from the lanai is stunning - postcard perfect! Being on the top (6th) floor gets you up above the utility cables that run along the street, that would take away from the view on the lower floors. We sat there for hours, whale watching, taking many pictures of the beautiful sunsets, and watching the activity across the road at Kalama Park (volleyball, surfing, paddle boarding). Inside, the hosts have supplied everything you would need and may not have brought - binoculars, boogie board, great beach chairs and an umbrella, water bottles, a large cooler, snorkel set, rain umbrellas, a safe, etc etc. Condo has all the appliances you’d want, including laundry, dishwasher, and fridge w/ ice maker (a must!). Two a/c units cool the main area and bedroom down quickly, but were rarely needed when we were there - just open the lanai door and the back screen door and enjoy the cool breezes. Great pool area. This condo is in a fantastic area - must be 50 restaurants and food trucks within a 5 minute walk. Paia Fish Market, Blue Door Pizza, the Lava Rock, Burger Boys and Wing Kings were our favourites in the area. Souvenir shopping right there in Kalama Mall. Short walk or drive to Foodland for groceries (hosts have provided a discount card to take with you and save a lot); convenience store right in the building, and if you’re heading out on an exploration day, it’s about 2 minutes out to the Pi’ilani Hwy. Mahalo Steve & Vicki!

This condo is the perfect Maui getaway! Everything you need. You can’t beat the location and view from this condo. Very comfortable bed. The pool and bbq area is also very clean and big. If you enjoy being outdoors, surfing or playing volleyball book this great condo.

My wife and I had the best time at Steve's condo. We spent about a week here and wished we could have stayed longer. The unit was spotless and had everything needed for short-term renters. We stocked up on a few groceries (a short walk away) and were able to enjoy some meals on the beautiful balcony overlooking the ocean and sunsets. The unit is also only a few minutes walk from many restaurants in the area one way, and a few more minutes the opposite direction to many of the local beaches (Kam 1, 2, 3). It was great having access to beach chairs, umbrella, cooler, snorkel gear etc. as well - just bring yourself and prepare for an amazing time!

Renting was easy. The hosts Steve & Vicky were easy to get in touch with if we had we questions and responded almost immediately.
Loved having the free parking on the property.
The unit was very well equipped. Lots of cooking equipment, utensils dishes etc. Loved having real coffee grounds provided (would have liked some milk /cream too in the fridge to get us started in the morning, especially since we arrived at close to 11:00 pm , but that’s just our personal preference) We left a full unopened bag of coffee in the freezer to replace what we used.

This place is amazing and we will staying here again. The condo was clean and well stocked. The bed is very comfortable and the balcony view is the best sunset view around. My wife and I spent two of the six days here just out on the balcony watching the waves, the people, and watching so many whales jump around. ( bring a good pair of binoculars ) you can walk to many stores and restaurants as well.
