Ocean Front With Ocean View! AC, King Bed, 2 Bath!
Our stay in Kihei was great! Anke’s place was very cute and comfortable with a perfect view from the lanai. All communication was professional and reliable 💕

Oceanfront penthouse - stunning view!
Truly amazing. This place was paradise. Amazing views, great walkable restaurants and other areas of interest. Our host was outstanding. Not only did she offer local recommendations, she accommodated a late checkout for us as we had a late flight off the island. Truly paradise at this location and we will definitely visit again!

Noelani 219
We have been to the Noelani many times and this is the first time we stayed at Jill‘s place and it fit our needs and was great. It’s always nice and quiet here and the grounds are always kept up very nicely. Jill‘s place was very clean and very homey.We would definitely come back and stay again next time.

100 steps from the beach! Tranquil Seaside Oasis
Amazing place, location, and host! Enjoyed my stay, was close to everything and walking distance from the beach

Sugar Beach Resort #532 - Maui HI
We came here for our 20th anniversary. The views and beach are unparalleled. It is a more private setting and not walkable to downtown Kihei. This was perfect for us because we just wanted a chill place to be. It is still very accessible to the entire island and Kihei is really easy to get to. We will absolutely stay here again when we come back to Maui!

OCEANFRONT, Prestigiously REMODELED Chic Condo**
The condo was even better than what the pictures showed. Very generously supplied with more than just basic essentials. Loved the Keto that very much follows our lifestyle. The beds are extremely comfortable.

Wailea Couples Retreat, 300 FT To Keawakapu Beach
We feel incredibly lucky that we found this place! Kihei / Wailea area is the place to be. Complex felt safe and was very private which we loved. Cannot beat how close you are to the beach. A great beach, at that! The pavilion / pool area was such a nice add on. Place was clean and super cute. Host was super accommodating and responsive. Absolutely no notes. We will be back to Maui and I have 0 question as to where we’ll be staying. Thanks, Laura!

Direct Ocean Front, A102 awaits you!
Wow, this place is amazing! Inside you have everything you need, great shower, very comfy bed and nice kitchen, big living room, two tvs and washer/dryer. Outside is even better, ocean views with turtles and sting rays. Nice patio with furniture to chill and snack on. Sunset time is amazing and the views are spectacular. There's also a great little beach access to take a swim and relax. Highly recommend staying here!!! You won't regret it.

Island-Inspired 2BD Oceanfront ~ Quam Properties
Book it! I have come to Maui several times and stayed at both Hotels and condo type resorts and let me te you this is perfect (especially for families) The house had everything from a fully stocked kitchen (minus food ofc) , Pack and play for babies to beach chairs, cooler, boogie boards, snorkel gear. I usually rent those, so that was nice to have! The view of the ocean from the kitchen, living room, and bedroom was such a treat. The condo atmosphere is mostly quiet and laid-back. The lanai was my absolute favorite! I was nervous about not having AC but it honestly was not needed between the fans and the natural ocean breeze that comes in(especially in the second room) the whole house stays comfortable. I absolutely will be staying here again in the future!

Private Oceanfront Home N. Shore Maui - 1 Bdrm
What an amazing place! My husband and I were able to truly relax at this beautiful ocean front house. Gardens and lawn surrounding house are gorgeous too. Almost a 3/4 wrap around view as the yard is at an angle and you can see the ocean past the neighbor's house yard to the right. Beautiful house, pictures don't do it justice. Short walk to little beach with turtles resting on the shore. House was well stocked with everything you could need. My only complaint would be that there is no TV. Not much to do in Hawaii at night so would have been nice to watch movies/news/sports together rather than being on our own devices.

Beautiful Beachfront Townhouse !
This home was as described and the view is out of this world. Every morning we would enjoy our coffee and every evening we would love watching the sunset from the lanai. As you can see from other reviews, this house gets 5 stars because the pros are endless. However - we want to go over a few cons because as a group we rented both sides of the townhouse ($$$$$) and there were some issues that we felt may have swayed our decision to stay there had we known. 1) The homeless in the area. There is public beach access next door to an empty lot - There is then a church that provides free daily meals right behind the home. Put all of this together and the area has become a hang out spot. We had authorities called twice (sleeping in the bushes right outside our room that had bars installed on the windows/blocking the driveway) but could have called them every day. 2) No AC (we knew this) but it gets HOT and if you have littles it will be a problem. 3) Rocky beach entry. Bring water shoes!

Centrally located and steps to the beach!
Mike and Ashley were incredibly amazing and helpful. They really went above and beyond for us. Really appreciated the special touch they left us for our anniversary and will recommend them to and friends and family that visit Maui. Their place is beautiful and it looks even better in pictures. It is perfectly homey, private, and quiet, which was very nice but also close to the beach with a three minute walk couldn’t recommend staying with Mike and Ashley more. Thanks for helping make our anniversary trip special!

Maalaea Kai 307 - Maui Prime Oceanfront
We had the best time at this condo! It was quiet and clean and was exactly what we were hoping for! Don was incredibly responsive when I had questions or needed recommendations to rent baby gear! We had a great time and hope to Come back again

Best Studio Ocean Views at Honua Kai -Hokulani 719
We, a small family, recently stayed in Kaanapali Maui and couldn’t have been happier with the experience. From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The unit was spotless, beautifully decorated, and fully stocked with all the essentials — from kitchenware including a blender and all of the beach necessities. After going around the island and picking up some fresh fruit, it was a nice afternoon treat to be able to make our own smoothies! Highly recommend it. The view from the lanai (balcony) was absolutely stunning. Every morning we enjoyed our coffee while watching the sunrise over the ocean, and in the evenings we were treated to the most spectacular sunsets. The sound of the waves crashing was the perfect background to a truly relaxing vacation. The location was ideal just a short walk to the beach, shops, and great local restaurants. We loved being close to snorkeling spots and whale watching opportunities. The complex also had a pool, hot tub, and BBQ grill

Aloha Aku Hula Suite – Find Peace by the Shore
This is really well situated. A hundred feet from the back door and you are on the beach. Wake to the sounds of the birds from the adjacent wildlife refuge. It's intimate, with only four rental units in the building. No big hotels in the area, so the beach is uncrowded, and has basking sea turtles! Beautiful sunsets. They could have had 5 units, but kindly equipped the middle unit as a common room where departing guests leave food, drinks, and supplies like sunscreen, bug spray, etc. Free snorkeling and beach supplies, bikes with lights/locks/helmets, boogie and paddleboards, an ocean kayak, TONS of movies, books, and CDs. Our unit was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the kitchen was equipped with everything except a dishwasher and a full-size oven (there is big high quality toaster oven). Note the toilet/shower area is open at the top. Gary and his team communicated clearly for entry and exit but otherwise left us alone unless we had a question. Would definitely stay again.

Hale Ho'okipa Kai Cottage, County Licensed
We loved our stay at Magrit’s place on Maui! The place was comfortable (including the beds!), private, and had spectacular views. There was not direct beach access, but we knew that going in and we spent lots of time exploring the island and other beaches. Having our own yard overlooking the waves (and surfers) was just right for us while we sipped our morning coffee or unwound from a busy day. While the north shore is a bit more humid and the beaches are less calm, we much preferred this area to the other parts of the island where all the resorts are located. Paia is very cute with some great restaurants and shops and it’s centrally located for exploring the north country or the road to Hāna. If it didn’t take 12+ hrs to fly there we would be back there again soon!

Luxury Oceanfront Turtles Sunsets - Maui, Hawaii -
Great condo to stay at while in West Maui! All the amenities you could want and in a great location. Appreciated the thorough communication as well 🙏 Watch for sea turtles on the beach!

Oceanfront Penthouse Maui Kaanapali, Aloha Getaway
This was definitely a 5 star stay. I’ve stayed at plenty of nice Airbnbs and I think this was my favorite. It’s very easy, in a good location, very safe and extremely clean. Usually you can expect some sand on the ground or on the furniture at a beach stay even after it’s been cleaned, but not here. The entire place was spotless. The hosts were very responsive and kind. The beach is right out front and great for snorkeling and sea turtles. However, the best part was definitely the stunning view. The pictures online don’t do it justice. It’s beautiful. We laid in bed every day listening to the waves and watching the sunset. We woke up to the sunrise each morning. We also spent a good bit of time, especially in the morning, just watching the water. Every time we looked out the lanai we saw at least 3-4 sea turtles and one morning we even saw a sea lion swimming next to the shore. We never turned on the TV. I cannot recommend this stay enough. It’s easily worth the money.

Turtles & Tales: Luxe Beachfront w/AC & Ocean view
We loved our stay, would highly recommend! The condo is beautiful and had everything we needed. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again!

Premier Oceanfront Retreat in Lahaina
Hawaii Life thought of everything. The condo was spotless. The views and lanai made it worth every penny. The host was always available to answer questions, even helping me to remove fabric stains and helping with business paperwork. This was above and beyond. The amenities were superb but the personal touch with food and activities recommendations, nice beach chairs, wagon, coolers, sunscreen, shampoo, coffee maker, keurig, and espresso machines made things seem like at home. We didn’t need to purchase a lot of extras just to throw away after 8 days. We love to travel and I would by far say this is the best place we have stayed. Not only the location and cleanliness but the personal touch in every detail! We will be telling our friends about this location.

True Beachfront Luxury! Downstairs unit oceanfont!
The view is stunning, it's even prettier than the pictures! I liked so many things about staying here, my favorite, of course is the beautiful beach right in front of the condo. You can walk down the stairs and get right into the water. In the morning at low tide, the water is gentle and you can just float on a raft. In the afternoon, there's gentle waves, and you can see so many sea turtles. They swim right by you. At the top of the stairs, there's a freshwater shower so you can rinse off .The condo complex is very quiet and serene, and we enjoyed sitting on the patio in the mornings and watching the sunset in the evenings. We walked to restaurants in the area. I was really impressed with Marcie's response time if we had a question or needed anything she would respond very quickly. We to go back someday.🩷

Annie’s corner beachfront 9th floor condo is as advertised, AMAZING! If you like access to the beach and a peaceful place to stay, you’ll love this spot!

Enjoy this Beachfront Unit w/Peaceful Ocean Sounds
Beautiful place to stay. The views from the balcony are amazing! The condo was comfortable and had everything we needed for a great stay. We walked down the beach a couple of times and were able to see turtles that were resting on the sand. The swing is a great touch and great to relax in. Jeremy is very responsive. Would definitely stay again.
