The property was nice, great location We really had a hard time dealing with the lack of A/C, though, even with dans in and windows open it was almost too hot to sleep well. Furnishings were very dated (VCR and takes) and furniture old. The kitchen and bathrooms were nice and had been updated, though.

This unit provided everything we needed. It was in a perfect location to the beach. Sunsets are perfect from the lanai and it’s got a great pool! The rooftop dining/grilling area gives the best space I’ve seen for evening dinner and the view is spectacular from up there.
Great condo with access to the beautiful K1 beach. The views from the lanai are fantastic and with the way it it located you are always cool and never gets the direct sun, so you can sit and enjoy the lanai all day. We loved the privacy of the 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms for the teenage kids. Slept with the windows open listening to the ocean waves every night! Great place to stay!
We have stayed in Kihei many many times on the beach in the same area. This unit looked north at the beach and it was lovely. The beds were very comfortable. The carpet does need to be replaced in the unit, and although no air conditioning, there were plenty of fans however, the fans were very loud so we did not use them. If you open the windows the cross breeze cools the unit down nicely. Even during the day with it being on the north side kept the unit cool. The price was very high but the location cannot be beat and prices in Kihei have really increased since Covid. We would stay here again.
our family had a very good reunion and many enjoyable times at your property. the beach access and views are terrific.
Overall we enjoyed our stay, but had a few things that were annoying. Within the control of the owner is the conditions of the place and items in it. Almost everything in this condo is old. Carpet / sliding balcony doors / decor / lights/ couches / beds. The kitchen has been redone but has aged quickly (not bad though ). As for items in the condo, they provided everything necessary but feels like bare minimums. We've stayed in dozens of places around Kihei, and visited twice as many, so we know what to expect. Typically units will have a variety of left over spices / oils / coffee / sugar etc, not here. Salt / Pepper and a supply for 1 coffee. Also, there were only 2 beach chairs, which considering it is a 2 bedroom and typically would sleep 4, is just not enough chairs . They did supply decent amount of laundry soap.
The bedroom that is close to the shared hallway is very noisy. This may be similar for all units, but I would hope that the upgraded windows in many of the units quiets this down a bunch (educated guess) . We also had some extremely noisy neighbours that had to be called multiple times throughout our stay which lessened the experience. And when drunk people walk past your bedroom at 2:00am and are talking, it feels like they are in your room.
The view is incredible though, and being able to leave your shoes/sandles in the room and just walk down 2 short flights of stairs to the beach is exactly what we wanted. Despite the neighbours, we had a great time.
This was our first stay in Kihei and we thoroughly enjoyed the location. We liked being directly on the ocean with wonderful views of the ocean and the whales. We also enjoyed having the grassy area around the condos and the adjacent park where we could enjoy the evening sunsets. My only suggestion is that the kitchen could use a few additional non-breakable serving dishes to take outside for those sunset picnics. Otherwise the condo was well furnished, comfortable and enjoyable. Would definitely stay again.
I've never left a poor review but based on the cost of the rental, I was very disappointed. Beautiful property and location but was greeted by paperwork on the counter stating the windows were due be replaced. This should have been done years ago as you couldn't open the master bedroom windows for fear they might fall out and you couldn't even see through them towards the beach at Kamaole 1 because they were so dirty and corroded from years of salt spray.
On the first night we were there, the lights on the ceiling fan in the master bedroom blew out. No big deal as I reported it the next morning. I was told the property manager would take care of this...but no, the lights were never replaced and the master bedroom had no overhead lights the entire stay.
The entertainment system in the main room works fine but (very useful directions supplied) the volume on the TV was maxed out or close too that and there was no way to turn it down. In the master bedroom, it was opposite...no volume whatsoever. Not that we wanted to watch TV 24/7 but with the equipment there it would have been nice to utilize when needed.
As stated when deciding to rent, there is no A/C which is okay in the master bedroom but it gets very warm in the second bedroom.
Water pressure in the showers are very weak but get the job done in the long run.
The rest of the unit and lanai was fine enough but considering the amount charged...there are much better options out there. Pretty disappointed!
Not a bad place to stay, thought it was a bit overpriced. Ran out of TP might want to have a few more roles on hand, had to buy some more. Did not like carpet and it smelled a bit. Nice to have umbrella and cooler there. Not bad overall.
The unit needs to be updated. Indoor carpet is old and dirty, windows are broken and dirty, walls have holes, with paint covering damage. The bed in the primary bedroom has netting of mattress ripped and hanging on floor with what looks to be a lot of personal belongings shoved under the bed. The bedroom closet is full of other items, including paint cans. The fans are broken, the tile floor is cracked and broken. Every frame in the condo is hanging crooked on the wall. The shower rod and curtain fell down while getting out of the shower. The outdoor furniture is badly corroded, outdoor carpet is torn, lanai railing and table top very dirty,
