The building is about 300 feet from the sand which makes it perfect for water sports or nice walks on the beach. The updated kitchen has plenty of counter and cupboard space and is open to the dining area The side view from the dining area overlooks a waterway, upscale residential home and includes ocean and beach views. Looking to the northwest is the beautiful Maalaea Harbor and when light up at night provides quite a sight from the lanai, dining and living room areas. The master and guest bath have walk-in showers and are nicely appointed. The floor plan is spacious and the corner location offers privacy and extra windows to enjoy the view. The large covered lanai is the perfect place to dine, watch for whales during season, turtles year round, relax and watch the sunset blaze and fade into the ocean and let's not forget the moon sets!. This property is conveniently located just minutes away from shopping, dining, golf, entertainment venues and all of the beautiful south shores beaches.

What a beautiful remodel! The sliders just keep opening bringing the outside in. We were able to watch the whales and the sunset right from the patio. Great location, it is close to the grocery stores and food trucks. We will definitely stay here again!

This was the first time for my niece to visit Maui. I haven’t been in over 10 years. This unit was perfect. Comfortable, beautiful, great view, quiet, and very well supplied. It even had grilling utensils and beach chairs. Loved that it was a corner unit too. Linda communicated well and timely. Check in was effortless. Highly recommend it.
The beach is not the best for swimming so it wasn’t crowded. There are plenty of quality beaches the island to visit.

Absolutely beautiful and newly renovated condo. Whale watching from our balcony was excellent! Very close to fun restaurants, groceries, and activities. Great communications with mgr. We loved our stay, and are planning to return. Mahalo!

This place was perfect for our group of four. It was clean, modern, has a full kitchen for all our needs, and has a balcony that overlooks the ocean – amazing to wake up to every morning! The beach is basically in your background and not overcrowded. The location is great too as it's only a 5-10 minute drive to the busier part of Kihei. I would definitely recommend this place and would come back to stay here. The property manager is also very responsive and helpful with any issues/concerns.

Great location on beach side. Property is immaculate and condo beautiful. Very well appointed kitchen with everything you need. Nice touches like beach chairs. Will stay here again.
Do note that if you stay in Kehei that all the good condos are on the busy main road so you will hear some road noise. But the trade off is being able to see whales from you balcony 🌺

Great location (beach, sunset, view, not close to town). Beach was not very busy and close. The apartment itself was functional and best kitchen supplies of any VRBO I have stayed at. However, overall the apartment has a rundown and aged feeling. Some minor updates would impact the overall feel. Replacing the carpet, couch, second bathroom sink. Lastly use pressure regulating shower heads for us that like a gentle shower.

Really enjoyed this rental property. The view is absolutely amazing and the beach is right there in front of you. The unit could use some updating (which the property manager said would be occurring over the summer), but that didn't detract from the stay at all. The unit was very clean and well stocked with cooking dishes/utensils. The central location on Maui and so much food locally was great. The property manager was very communicative and really wanted to make sure we were aware that there was some noisy construction going on on the other side of the building (not that we heard it at all). That level of concern and communication definitely made me interested in staying at this unit or another unit on this property. Really great place and would definitely be looking at this or other KOA Lagoon properties in the future.
