This was our first time to visit Maui and there were any number of choices. The property was conveniently located in the the heart of Kihei -with an easy walking distance to a great beach. The ocean views from the balcony were memorable. The condo itself has been recently refreshed - making it a very comfortable stay. The kitchen was expertly stocked with all we needed for meal preparation. The amenities (pool and barbecue) were easily accessed and the parking was monitored for an extra safety feature. Joan provided all the information we needed and checked in with us to make sure all was well. We have used VRBO in the past - this was one of the best experiences we have had. You can be sure you will not be disappointed if you choose to use this as your Maui vacation hub!
Location: Facing the ocean widely. Excellent location for watching sunset. Walk to the beach is a short and pleasant distance. The plants/flower plants along the walkways and around the building are well selected and clearly name on the instruction/introduction.
Room: Well-kept high quality Funiture. Most of the kitchen appliances are nice, useful, and expensive! Very clean and practical setup room. Everything is in the closets; this is neat!
Services: Excellent. Ms. Romkus responded to email promptly, straight forward, and clear. When I had some minor concerns, Ms. Romkus made it easy for me to make little changes. I enjoyed corresponding with her
Recommendation: Highly recommended. We will come back stay in this room again soon.
This was our second stay here and it's a great property! The owner is super helpful if anything is needed. Highly recommend!
I loved Kihei Akahi. It is a great, well kept property conveniently located across the street from an excellent beach and accessible to many restaurants and shops. I also used one of the pools, which was very clean and a perfect temperature. This unit has an amazing view from the lanai and we enjoyed sitting out there a lot! The unit was well equipped (kitchen and beach gear) and as pictured. It is a little dated, but was clean and in great shape. Check in was easy and we had no problems during our stay.
The air conditioning was a definite plus. Only downside for me was the bed, which I found uncomfortable. My son slept well on the pull-out though.
Exactly as shown on video. The beach chairs, towels and umbrella where great to use.
Bed comfortable
My husband and I greatly enjoyed our experience in this condo. There was more beach supplies than in the original listing, including multiple kinds of chairs, umbrella, snorkel gear, beach towels, and coolers. The kitchen was fully stocked with wide array cooking equipment and tools. The location was amazing, nice and quiet off the main road. The A/C worked well! Our only complaint was that the bed seemed old, with two valleys where people slept and a large ridge in the middle. I would recommend the host upgrade their lock and key system to a digital/code lock for ease of use. We would highly recommend this condo and would be happy to return!
This was my first VRBO experience. It was easy and instructions were good. Cute condo. Great view Love the location.
We really enjoyed our stay here. The condo is clean and sweet. It has everything we needed - beach towels, beach chairs and umbrella, even a small cooler. Location is perfect and there are a lot of restaurants nearby.
Ive been going to Maui for the last 30 years and stayed on the West side the 1st 25. Only in the last 5-7 years have we been staying on the South side, in Kihei or Wailea. The Kihei Akahi property, especially bldg D, and specifically D-504 is fabulous. Clean, spacious for a one bedroom, loved the beach gear, towels, coolers and beahchairs stored in the cabinet for use. Everything in great working order, and the owner Joan was a delight to communicate with. I'll be back!
