Pictures and reviews of the property, as well as its proximity to the ocean, were spot on. No regrets whatsoever and would always look to rebook here. I mean, you have what ends up being essentially your own private beach every day. You swim with the turtles. The A/C in both the living room and bedroom were downright chilly they worked so well. Great kitchen, nice counter space and shower in bathroom, walking distance to a few restaurants and food trucks. We had a fantastic time and can’t wait to return someday!
Such a great place to stay. Kitchen very well equipped, ocean views, comfortable bed, excellent location. We were able to see whales and turtles almost every day while sitting on the lanai.
My husband & I stayed in West Maui for the first time, celebrating our 19th anniversary. We've stayed in several VRBO's in Maui & Oahu but Kaleialoha 410 is by far the best! Pretty accurate description of the unit, w/ updated warm furnishings & decor. The bdrm has plenty of room although the hanging space for clothes could be a bit bigger, but also has a nice dresser. We love to cook some meals in & not have to go out for 3 meals a day, & the kitchen is well equipped w/ plenty of utensils, plasticware, good selection of pots/pans & good, sharp knives! We clicked on this unit because of the close proximity to the water, even though this property doesn't have it's own beach (just step over to the neighbouring property & use their steps) & with the correct timing of the tide, a very enjoyable beach. They call this area Turtle Expressway for a reason...every day we had at least 5 big green sea turtles cruising by in mid morning. This property has a lift so it came in very handy w/ this unit on the 4th (top) fl. Also, the A/C in both the LR & bdrm worked just fine & was pretty quiet although in mid-April, you can leave the patio door open at night & get lulled asleep by the waves...'cuz the screen door seals well & is sturdy! The owners have a thorough Guest Info book & the best-ever guide book in the unit, Maui Revealed, by Andrew Doughty...a very entertaining & funny but accurate travel guide of the good, bad & ugly of Maui...at least he's honest! The only comments we had, while on site, was the outdated main photo on the VRBO listing...I actually took a fabulous photo & emailed into MBR. The newer all grassy area out along the lava sea wall is lovely w/ plenty of lounge chairs & dining tables. At least 3 out of 4 gas grills worked just fine. We loved the location in Honokowai area, just a little North of the many resort hotels of Ka'anapali...just 7 minutes North of Ka'anapali Kai Golf Course & 10 minutes up to Kapalua. We did the coast road all the way up to the Olivine Pools which was a bit curvy but lovely scenic drive on a great paved 2 lane road. We will return as soon as possible!
Fantastic Whale watching, sea turtles and sunsets.

We enjoyed a week in December turing Maui, and especially watching whales surface in the waters between the islands. The balcony gave us exceptional view for whale watching, sea turtles, boats and the occasional rainbows. Condo was beautiful, nicely decorated and very comfortable.

We had an amazing time in this unit. The views and sunsets were spectular.

A very comfortable and clean condo. We watched whales while having our morning coffee. We would definitely stay again. Thanks
Great location - near a farmers market, fish market, favorite sushi spot and of course Maui Brewing. Great view and nice quiet condos.
The property was lovely and in a great location only 15 minutes from Lahiana. You could not beat the ocean and sunset views from our room not to mention the turtles we cold see from our balcony. Our only complaints would be that the A/C unit is in the living room and did not reach the bedroom, maybe stocking a few extra fans in the closets for tenants that need them? Also the elevator was pretty sketchy we used the stairs a lot. But overall it was a pleasant stay.
Could not use the lanai - chairs covered in pigeon poop.
Swamp cooler doesn't not work at all in the humid climate - room was extremely hot the whole time.
Overall this condo was great. It was a great view and it was awesome to hear the ocean waves crashing against the shore. The condo itself was nice and clean. The only setback was that we were not able to use the lanai because there were pigeon droppings all over the rug. The pigeons would hang out on our lanai as well. But overall, the condo was great. A great neighborhood and easy access to the beach. Close to Kaanapali Beach and close to shops and restaurants.
