Our Maui vacation rental is a light and airy one-bedroom, two-bath condominium on the second floor of Ekahi's Upper Village. It comfortably sleeps four guests, with a lovely tropical garden view overlooking a quiet and peaceful swimming pool (Pool #3). You also enjoy a gorgeous partial ocean view from the pretty lanai and our well-stocked kitchen. Vaulted 15+ foot ceilings in the great room of our Maui rental create a feeling of spaciousness that belies its size. We have a hammock chair on the front lanai!
Although the interior space and lanai are only 1090 square feet, the condominium is laid out in such a way as to more than accommodate four people. You will also find it equipped with beach chairs, towels, umbrella, boogie board, many DVD's, CDs, books, WiFi, and everything else necessary for a delightful sojourn in Maui.
It is a five minute walk down a greenbelt to Keawakapu Beach and the ocean -- no roads to cross! You can snorkel or jump waves to your heart's content; it is a sandy white beach about a mile long. Next to the Beach is the Ekahi Pavilion and main pool, with several gas grills, a shower and bathroom, and shuffleboard.
Our unit is quiet, not on the street, and you will hear the birdsongs as you enjoy all the bouganvillea, palm trees, bamboo and flowers that are within reach from our lanai. The snorkeling is fantastic right in front of Ekahi.
We are being very flexible if you need to cancel or move dates during this pandemic period. Just contact me.
Our rates at this time are $280/night for low season (April 16-December 14) and $320/night for high season (December 15 to April 15), plus taxes. There is a new Maui County tax of 3% on transient accommodations that began on November 1, 2021. That will be added to new bookings after this date. The State of Hawaii taxes also continue to be added to your booking.
If you stay less than one week, there is a small cleaning fee ($115 for you) to help us cover the departure cleaning (which for me is double that). There is a king bed in the master bedroom, and a comfortable queen Murphy bed in the great room.

Really enjoyed my stay at Marilee's place in Ekahi Village. Well stocked, clean, comfy, close to everything I needed, and Marilee was friendly and easy to connect with. Can't wait to go back!

We had a lovely time in this unit. This is our third stay at Ekahi and the facilities have always been fantastic. The unit we stayed in had many pluses and a few minor negatives. The pluses: The beds were comfortable, even the Murphy bed, which sounds a bit creaky but was fine for 2 adults. The lanai overlooking the pool is great; comfortable chairs, and an amazing view. The high ceilings of the unit help it seem very spacious. The air conditioning and fans work perfectly. We were concerned that being fairly close to the road, it might be a bit noisy, but it was very quiet the entire time. The negatives: The dishwasher works fine, but the door springs are broken so be careful when opening it. The washing machine was leaking. The owner phoned us as we were checking in to tell us this. A repairman came and worked on it, but was unable to fix until 5 days later. We were able to use it but had to constantly change towels to mop up water on the floor. This wasn't the end of the world and these things happen with older machines, but was a minor inconvenience. The unit would benefit from having the trim paint redone. The cabinets & closet doors felt gummy and looked grimy. I feel the unit was as clean as it could get, as it’s difficult to clean old, thick paint. Overall I would say the positives outweighed the negatives and the few negatives were mostly cosmetic. I would stay in the unit again and I'm sure that anyone staying here would have a great time.

We had a wonderful stay at this condo. It’s in a great location in Wailea. The beach is a short walk away and was lovely. The condo itself was clean, comfortable, and stocked with everything we needed. The only suggestion I would add is maybe a couple more Tommy bahama beach chairs. Would definitely stay here again!

The unit is in desperate need of renovation. If you’re over 5’ 8” you’ll be uncomfortable in the shower, bathroom sink counter heights and small toilets. This is on one of the best properties in Wailea so it was somewhat disappointing.

Excellent stay in Maui. Close to the pool and beach in a beautiful facility. Thank you!

We had a wonderful stay at Marilee’s place! Marilee was great with communication leading up to our stay to ensure we had all the info we needed. Check in was easy, kitchen was well stocked with dishes, utensils, basic condiments, etc. and the AC worked very well. The ocean view from the balcony was gorgeous. Would definitely stay here again!!

I used to stay at Wailea Ekahi when I was a kid and my grandparents owned a condo, so when my partner and I were invited to a wedding at the nearby Grand Wailea I knew I had to stay at Ekahi again. Marilee's place was perfect! She was very proactive with communication about the property prior to my boyfriend and I arriving and even sent us some local events that we might want to check out. She was also very easy to reach when we had a flight delay and wanted to ask about extending our check out time. The local caretaker, Linda, was also very easy to reach.
Wailea Ekahi is an older condo complex so if you're looking for something new and modern, this isn't it. However we appreciated the comfortable beds, functional air conditioning, and spacious layout of Marilee's unit. It had everything we needed from cooking supplies to beach umbrellas and coolers to hair dryers. The balcony was a lovely place to eat breakfast and drink my morning coffee and never got too hot! There is conveniently a quiet pool for us grown ups right behind the unit which we enjoyed, though the beach (with excellent snorkeling) and more kid-friendly pool are a 5 min walk away. The walk can feel a bit exhausting coming back at the end of a day in the sun as it is uphill, but definitely manageable.
I'd stay here again in a heartbeat, and not just because of all my childhood memories at Wailea Ekahi. Marilee was an incredible host and really helped us to have the perfect experience on Maui this week!

We spent Christmas and New Years as a family after a 2 year delay due to COVID and overall had a fantastic time with our extended family!
We had ongoing communication with Marilee with any issues we had with our condo. She was always quick to respond and always readily available to assist.
We did have some issues during our stay, which did add to some inconvenience. The first time we used the oven, it sparked and burst into flames while preheating. (sounds like an exaggeration but literally what happened) It was fixed after 2 days. So we had to our sister's oven on the other side of the property. The hand mixer was also broken so we had to mix by hand when baking. I believe a new one has been ordered. The tubs did not drain so we often had to use the showers at our parents' condo, which were also on the other side of the property, or the showers that were at the main pool. Overall cleanliness of the unit on arrival could have been better. There was quite a bit of hair in the tub drains, which we had to clean out ourselves (which was a bit gross). The counters had sticky residue on them so we had to Lysol wipe them all down. There was also quite a bit of spatter over the fridge surface so we had to wipe that down as well.
We did appreciate that the condo was stocked with plenty of the following; toilet paper, paper towels, dishwasher pods, laundry pods, garbage bags, Lysol wipes.
The girls loved taking turns reading in the hammock on the lanai every morning and the AC units in the unit were wonderful as well.

Property provides comfortable lodgings on the upper floor of building 42. I really enjoyed sitting out on the lanai in the hanging chair. The unit is close to the pool area which was very peaceful during our stay. The best part though is the hostess Marilee. We had the misfortune to have our flight home cancelled just hours before we were to leave. Upon learning this I contacted her to explain our situation. She was quick to respond and allow us to extend our stay for a day if required. This was so reassuring to us while dealing with the stress of finding a flight home. We so appreciate it and recommend a stay in this unit.
