The Kihei Surfside Resort consists of an absolute oceanfront concrete building of 6 floors and 84 deluxe units with an elevator. There is free parking on site. The resort is a twenty-five minute drive from the Kahului Airport (OGG). Rental cars are available at the airport or in Kihei town. There are also taxis available at the airport (about $50), a shuttle bus and public transportation.
Virtually all of the properties and resorts in Kihei are either located right on busy S. Kihei Rd., or if they are set back from the road - are across from the street from the ocean. One unique feature of the Kihei Surfside is that it is located at the quiet end of S. Kihei Road, AND is set back 300 feet from S. Kihei Road AND is located right on the ocean! Because it is hard to see from the road, many first time Surfside guests say that even though they have visited Kihei many times, they had never seen the resort!
Another unique feature of the property is that we have a 2 acre, immaculately kept oceanfront lawn area with dozens of loungers, with a heated swimming pool and deluxe barbeque facilities. In season, there are daily whale sightings from both the grounds and lanais. In fact, the Pacific Whale Foundation conducts their annual whale count from our property. The building is located at the north end of Keawakapu Beach, one of the most beautiful beaches on Maui, where you can walk for miles past some of the most expensive oceanfront homes on the island and the luxurious hotels of Wailea, including the Grand Wailea Hotel. It is customary for the residents of the Kihei Surfside to gather each evening for cocktails on the shore near the tiki torches for a traditional Hawaiian sundown ceremony. Feel free to join in - this is a great opportunity to meet your neighbours and fellow vacationers!
The island also has a Costco and a Wal-Mart,
There is never any shortage of things to do on Maui. The Shops at Wailea, Wailea Golf Club, Wailea Tennis Club and Makena Golf Club are within a five minute drive. The Kihei boat ramp is located 100 yards north of the property. Several of the tour operators for snorkelling and diving launch here. See Maui Dive Shop, Makena Coast Dive Charters, and Blue Water Rafting. Maalaea harbour is a 20 minute drive, and from there you would get the fishing charters and sunset dinner cruises, or visit the Maui Ocean Center. The old whaling town of Lahaina is a 45 minute drive, from there you can ride on the Atlantis Submarine, or go for a boat trip with the Pacific Whale Foundation. Helicopter tours are available from the airport. See Blue Hawaiian Helicopters or Air Maui. Feeling adventurous? Try riding a bike down Mount Haleakala - Haleakala Bike Company. For exercise enthusiasts, there are a couple of gyms nearby – Powerhouse Gym, Valley Isle Fitness, and Pilates Maui. There is also a yoga studio Maui Yoga Path right across the parking lot.

We had an amazing time. The view was perfect and we loved having access to the pool. The grass area was the perfect place to take in sunset which we did nearly every night. Would definitely return

We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely book in the future. Unit was clean and comfortable the grounds and pool well maintained. Staff was friendly and attentive. The views are amazing and the complex was quiet so we could enjoy the sound of the ocean. We would highly recommend this unit! Mahalo nui loa!

This condo/property was everything we could have asked for. Clean, easy check-in, accurate listing description, incredible views, spacious, the list goes on.
Located in great area and the property (beach, grass, pathways, and pool) were all well-maintained and very nice. Property has a path to a secluded little area where the sea turtles like to rest-- that was a highlight! Would definitely stay here again.

Great location, excellent ocean views, beautiful furniture. Loved having the two bathrooms.
Unit would receive 4 Stars if it had A/C.
Fans and open doors help but still a little toasty.

Kihei Surfside is in the perfect location, close to a lot of beaches, places to eat and shop in Kihei. The Wailea resort area is only a few minutes drive away. The property is oceanfront, all condos have an ocean view. And it is less than a 5 minute walk down a pathway to Keawakapu beach, a long stretch of beautiful beach. It's a big beach so it never felt crowded.
This unit is perfectly situated for sunset views from the lanai. I would definitely recommend staying on the higher floors (4th & above and on the side closest to the ocean (lower unit numbers -05 or lower) for the best views. This unit was clean and comfortable, a great home away from home. There was even a welcome tray with some snacks and beverages which was a nice touch! I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again!

This condo was perfect for our stay. The proximity to the beach meant never missing a gorgeous sunset. Host was very easy to reach when needed which made the process very smooth!

The condo is accurately described and pictured. It had everything we needed and the views were spectacular. The pool and park are lovely and the long stretch of beach is one of the best on Maui. We would love to come back!

This place has a fantastic west-facing view for incredible sunsets! It's right on the water, and perfect for two people. Or even potentially three or four, since there are two toilets, two sinks (one full size shower), and a fold-out sofa-bed in the living room. My fiancé and I slept on on the fold-out one night just to listen to the waves. Other nights, we slept on the big, comfy, king-sized bed.
From the building, you can walk about 20 yards to the south to a warm, public sand beach. While we were swimming there, a giant sea turtle swam by us! You won't likely find a better price for the caliber of location on Maui. It doesn't have A/C or a jacuzzi, but who cares? You can just open the big sliding glass lanai doors and window, and let the trade winds cool you down. There's also a sparkling clean swimming pool with communal gas BBQs next to it, and a big beautiful lawn with palm trees and plenty of chairs for sunset-gazing.
Other amenities include a fully equipped kitchen, two TV sets (one living room, one bedroom), zippy WiFi, and parking right in front of the building. There's on-site coin-op laundry, garbage and recycling, and a small book library. There's also an 808 Market/Deli in the building across the street, very handy for munchies and sundries.
Lots of snorkeling tours leave from the Kihei boat ramp, and you can pretty much walk to the ramp from this building. It's also a very short drive into Kihei or Wailea. Can't wait to return!

The Surfside Kihei is a six story building located right on the water on the south end of Kihei, close to Wailea. The complex is well maintained, with a spectacular ocean views and an easy walk to the beach. There's also a nice pool and BBQ area that are immaculately maintained. The biggest downside is that the property was noisier than we expected. Evidently May - Sept is the "low season" on Maui and that's when the condo allows owners to renovate their units. Some days it was quite loud cat times with noise from saws, drills, fork lifts, hammering and general construction noise. If you're sensitive to sounds and want a quiet, serene setting, be aware this complex is rather loud, at least May - Sept. Having said that, the unit is beautiful, the sunset views are amazing, and the beach and snorkeling are fabulous.
