Our group of 3 adult couples stayed at this beautiful home for a week in January. The photos and description matched what we found and even exceeded our expectations. The layout of the house worked well and we enjoyed the large glass windows at the back of the house for the times when it was a little rainy or chilly. We saw so many turtles on the beach, especially at night and in the early morning. Before our stay, we were a little unsure about the location as it was close to the airport, but this ended up being a huge bonus for us. After a very delayed flight and a much later than anticipated arrival, the last thing we wanted to do was to drive across Maui in the dark to find our house. The relative nearness to the airport made for an easy drive the first night and we were able to be showered and in a comfortable, clean bed within an hour of landing. Our experience was that in January, the community was fairly empty and we hardly saw anyone else on the beach or around the grounds. Everything was very well maintained. The nearby town of Pa'ia had great restaurant options, a local grocery store & a large free public parking lot. We drove all over Maui and enjoyed this location as it was relatively central.The hosts were responsive and helpful with our small issues. We would happily stay here again!
Beautiful location and interior decoration
The property and condo are beautiful and we loved the location, however, the air conditioner did not work throughout our stay which caused a very disappointing & uncomfortable experience. I'd like to stress that we completely understand that many properties on the island do not have air conditioning and that energy is very expensive, but my family chose to spend more on this rental because of the location and amenities. We arrived on Saturday and immediately realized the air conditioner was not working. My husband called the phone number listed by Maui Vacation Properties on Sunday and left a message as instructed by the management company. We did not receive a response so he emailed them on Monday. They were not able to send anyone out to look at the unit until Wednesday and Thursday they left a box fan as a resolution to the extremely uncomfortable temperature in the unit. All 3 bedrooms are upstairs and were showing 80+ degrees. The room in the back (twin beds) was even warmer. My brother (40 yrs old) had to sleep on the couch downstairs. Again, we made it work, but this was not the experience we paid for. Maui Vacation Properties made it very clear there would be a fine issued if we broke any of the many rules set by their contract. We understand this was out of their control, but they should have offered a credit for the extreme inconvenience. I did reach out to ask, and it was declined. I would not recommend staying at a Maui Vacation Properties rental.
This place is a gem. The house was perfect for us with two grannies and little kiddos. We were able to get lots of beach time, cook meals, hang out with friends, play tennis, watch turtles, surfers, etc.
The staff were very responsive and helpful. We'll definitely be back.
Everything about this stay was perfect. The place was spotless and well appointed. It felt like home from the moment we walked in. And as the saying goes, Location, Location, Location! Steps from a relatively private beach and minutes from Paia, for us, the most enjoyable little town on Maui.
We were so impressed with this property. The whole complex was beautiful, clean, well cared for, and quiet. The views from both master bedrooms and downstairs living area was amazing. The property managers were very friendly and quick to reply. We would love to stay here again!
We absolutely loved this place. Very well maintained property and grounds. Perfect location and an awesome beach. Sea turtles in the late afternoon and morning and kite sailors everyday. Great launching pad for anything you want to do on the island. The North Shore is the only way to go when visiting Maui. We’ll be back.
We had a great experience here at Sugar Cove. The house was very comfortable and beautiful to stay in. It was very clean, spacious, plenty of windows and fans for a breeze and of course the views were gorgeous. Loved how there were plenty of towels and other small necessities available. Definitely would love to stay here again if given the opportunity.
Comfortable, well provisioned, and roomy, with day trips short distances. Fills all the senses with Hawaii.
Ad for property was spot on! Property was beautiful and well maintained. Condo was also really nice and the view was magnificent. Only negative we’re the linens. We all agreed the linens were less than hotel quality.
Our family of 6 had a great week at Sugar Cove. The beach was very nice for swimming and seeing turtles. We nearly had the whole beach to ourselves most days. The public beaches Baby & Baldwin were a short walk away.
The house was perfect for us. Beds were comfortable , kitchen was well equipped. There was plenty of room for us to spread out
