Aloha and welcome to the Hale Kai Uli!
What exactly is the Hale Kai Uli? In the Hawaiian language hale means house, kai is the ocean and uli means blue. The House of the Deep Blue Sea.
The Hale Kai Uli is adjacent to a quiet stretch of sandy beach in sunny Kihei, Maui… just 500 feet from lanai to toes-in-the-ocean! Our 2 bedroom/1 bath condo can sleep 4 guests. We renovated and brought in all new furniture in Oct 2016. In Nov 2021 we upgraded the windows and installed a split AC unit so there is now individually controlled AC units in the living room and each bedroom.
Bedroom 1 offers a plush queen-sized gel-infused memory foam mattress and luxuriously soft sheets. Windows facing both east & west provide great cross-ventilation and a large wall-mounted oscillating fan will keep you cool as you sleep. There is extra counterspace with a large mirror for dressing and easy-to-access outlets including USB ports to charge your phones.
Bedroom 2 offers 2 twin-sized memory foam beds, a large dresser and closet space. A 32” SMART TV is set up with a BlueRay DVD player. Cable is not available on this TV but it is connected to the wi-fi so you can use your preferred streaming accounts. Cable is available on the living room TV which is also set up for you to access your streaming accounts.
In the bathroom you’ll find plenty of storage space and hooks for wet towels or toiletry bags. A hotel-style towel rack installed in the shower is the perfect place to drip dry wet swim suits. A hairdryer is provided.
Our kitchen comes fully equipped with stainless appliances and all the cookware, gadgets and serving dishes you would need to make a quick breakfast or a full dinner. You can also take advantage of two gas grills and full outdoor kitchen at the pavilion area near the pool.
You’ll find a dining table inside for those rare rainy nights but Hawaii living is all about being outdoors so we’ve provided a patio set large enough to accommodate 4 adults for a full dinner. A retractable shade will keep the lanai cool in the afternoon. And once the sun fades beyond the horizon, flip on the twinkle lights, pour a glass of wine, sink into the comfortable chairs and relax well into the night.
Tile flooring throughout helps keep the unit cool and the east & west facing windows allow you to take advantage of the breezes when the trade winds are blowing. There are multiple fans throughout the unit to keep you cool but when the heat or humidity kicks up you'll rest comfortably with our new split AC units.
Kihei Garden Estates is a lush property. Enjoy swaying palms, fragrant plumeria and exotic tropical flowers throughout. A huge mango tree provides fresh fruit in season. From your lanai, you can watch geckos and iguanas and listen to the song of the Hawaiian Mynah Birds. While you're savoring your first cup of coffee you may catch a glimpse of the stealthy mongoose as he makes his early morning rounds. A combination of permanent residents and vacation rentals creates a quiet, relaxing atmosphere you won’t find at larger resort complexes. You’ll always find an open chaise at the pool and a spot in the hot tub. There is a shared laundry room for each building ($2.50 to wash/dry) and we have provided a laundry bag for guest use.
We’ve supplied 4 Tommy Bahama “backpack” beach chairs with cooler pouches, a soft-sided Coleman cooler, 2 boogie boards, pool noodles, a beach ball and ...

Super comfortable condo. It had everything we needed and more. Lots of outdoor space for kids to run around. Hosts are quick to answer any questions and help out in anyway they can!

We loved staying 1 block to the beach and swimming in the pool surrounded by palm trees. Used the bbq several times to eat at home. Absolutely beautiful grounds in the courtyard area. Highly recommended!

Loved the condo, was great for two kids each to have their own beds. The kids loved the beach theme and the easy availability to go play on the grass and eat meals outside. Quick walk to beach. Decent pool. Just wish the washing machine and dryer was in the unit, but that’s the only main complaint. The key to the laundry room also is tricky, might need to be replaced soon. But definitely had a great stay and hope to come next year!

Great location near the beach to sun, swim, watch turtles go in and out if water everyday! It is across from a beautiful Catholic church (7:00 daily Mass) with a coffee shop and Maui Pies nearby. Great pool, BBQ grill and comfortable living space. We will recommend to family and friends. Hope to be back soon!

This condo had everything you needed for a great stay including beach supplies and a fully stocked kitchen. We appreciated being on the ground floor and having AC in all main living areas. Location was perfect. Close to grocery stores, restaurants, and coffee shops! We enjoyed the short walk to the beach each day! We will be back!

My only complaint was we didn’t stay long enough!

It was a beautiful property that was just walking distance from almost everything we wanted to try. The beach is 500 feet away and if that doesn't suit you, the complex pool is incredibly clean and a great spot for some sun. The apartment itself is decorated so cute and we definitely made use of the patio. I would love to stay here again!

We stayed at this property with our two teenage boys. The apartment offered everything we needed to have a great vacation. The apartment is very complete. It has kitchen utensils, bedroom linens, beach towels and chairs, and is very clean. The location is great, with supermarkets close by, restaurants and beaches.
The laundry room was very useful and easy to access and use.
We recommend this place. We would love to go back.

Return stay at this lovely condo. We enjoyed it so much the first time, we book our stay here for our second trip without hesitation. The condo is perfect for 3-4 people. The owners communicate very well and the staff is so helpful and friendly. Its in a safe area with everything you need within walking distance. We utilized the beach chairs, pool, hot tub and even the laundry facility. Would definitely return and stay here again and again.

We had a wonderful stay in the Kihei Garden Estates! The property was perfect for our family - first floor with beautiful lawn and tropical plants right outside our lanai. Every morning our son loves running through the grass looking for fallen mangoes, geckos, and birds while we looked on enjoying our coffee from the cute coffee shop just a short walk from the condo. Every evening we took the 500ft walk to watch the sunsets! The location was absolutely perfect-easy beach access and nearby stores and restaurants.
The property itself was clean and well stocked with kitchen and beach supplies. The bedroom spaces were on the smaller side but super well organized so we were able to store all our gear in the closets to keep the rooms feeling as spacious as they could. We try to visit one of the islands every year to escape the Alaskan cold and my husband and I both agreed that we could see this property being our annual family spot as our boys grow up! Thank you for a wonderful stay and we hope to be back in the future!

The store is literally the next building over! The beach is maybe 2 blocks off. And this beach is perfect for toddlers. Mg 2 year old loved the ocean. The waves weren’t big so she would walk right in to me, and it was very sandy and lovely. Pool was great (bring ur own life jacket). Charles young beach is a couple min drive down the way for some waves and snorkeling for our 10 year old who did some boogie boarding. And go to the farmers market and get some bbq and food. The locals are very appreciative of your support.

Our trip to the Valley Isle could not have gone any smoother and the memories made could not have been any more beautiful! Having Hale Kai Uli as our home base during our trip was more than we could have hoped for. To begin with, the location was so close to the ocean it felt almost beachfront, and in the opposite direction we had the convenience of grocery stores, small restaurants, and local shops all within a short walk. I appreciated being a few minutes outside of the main "Kihei hub" (i.e. Kamaole Beaches area) which provided for a quieter and less busy neighbourhood. Having the luxury of a ground-level unit, allowed for easy access to and from the lush grounds. We ate breakfast nearly every morning on the lanai, and bbq'd on a couple evenings around the pool using the community outdoor kitchen. The amenities inside the unit were above & beyond what we were expecting; the kitchen was stocked with all the utensils and accessories we needed for eating in & out of the unit (including a soft cooler, ice packs, and Tupperware for picnicking on our beach-day excursions). We made use of the beach accessories as well, which included beach chairs & umbrella, snorkels, masks & fins, boogie boards and other beach toys! The place itself was immaculate and both bedrooms were clean & comfortable. I really hope to return to Hale Kai Uli one day, and have been recommending the unit non-stop since our return. Mahalo to Staci, Matthew, and Jennifer for making our holiday so special!
