Stunning Luxury Oceanview Condo
The condo was just like the pictures, and the amenities were great! John was very responsive and made everything super easy. I would definitely recommend and would stay here again!

Locally Owned Ocean View Studio in Kahana
Great clean place with a very nice view of the ocean from the bed. The place was in a great location with tons to do all around. The door code was super nice because we didn’t need to worry about losing a key or anything. The room comes with everything you need and even more. Was very pleased and had a wonderful time in Maui :)

Amazing Oceanview! Beach, Whales! Family Fave!
Perfect place to enjoy Maui with beach view from balcony. The beds were comfy and the apartment was super well equipped! We had a toddler and there was a pack n play, dining chair booster, a few toys, and baby utensils! Megan was super responsive and helpful. Could not ask for a better experience. Highly recommend the walk down the beach to the sugar beach bakery.

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!

Charley's Hideaway (Oceanfront)
Derrick was so friendly and his place was just 30 seconds from the beach! He was generous with beach gear (chairs, boogie boards) and was happy to give recommendations and teach us about the local plants and animals. We will definitely be coming back!

Wailea Ekahi Ocean View Studio!
The condo was clean and comfortable. The location within the village is great as you have a view of the water from the balcony and it’s not near any of the roads so it’s quiet. Snorkeling on the reefs at both the north and south ends of Mokapu beach was incredible and it was so nice to be able to walk down early when the water was calmest and the crowds hadn’t arrived. The whole area feels very quiet and peaceful and the grounds are very impressive.

Oceanfront penthouse with amazing views at Kauhale
Really nice! Loved the view and the building is perfect direction for sunset. Condo was clean and big. The only thing I would say is that they should maybe add Tupperware and ziplocks but other than that the condo and host were great!!

180* Oceanfront View w/ AC! Remodel+2Pools+Clean
Incredibly responsive and a great host! The location and home were perfect. We will definitely be back!

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!
Waterfront condo accommodation

Fully remodeled, Ocean View, 3 mins walk to beach
We had a fantastic stay! The place was spotless and had everything we needed for a comfortable visit. From the well-stocked kitchen to the cozy linens, every detail was thoughtfully taken care of. Check-in was smooth, and communication with the host was excellent. We’d definitely stay here again and highly recommend it.

Renovated 2BD/2BA | 3 Min Walk to Beach | A/C
We really enjoyed our stay at Dmitry’s place and would happily come back. The home was clean, comfortable, and just what we needed. Thanks for a great stay!

Full Ocean- Full Sunsets- Beaches at Royal Mauiian
Condo was perfect for our vacation! Beautiful view and within walking distance of shops and restaurants. We saw great coral and turtles while snorkeling in the ocean right next to the condo, and the provided beach gear was nice to use. Amenities in the condo were as expected; we were able to cook several meals in the condo to save some money eating out. Overall a great retreat from the busyness of life. We would likely stay here again!

Makani A Kai B4 beachfront Maui, pool, a/c, w/d
Steve was a fantastic host, responded quickly. Made the process easy. Beautiful condo, even better than we expected. Place is right on the beach, incredible view from balcony. All the amenities were top notch and condo was very clean. Would definitely stay there again. -Frank (Sandy UT.)

Ma'alaea Surf Oceanfront 2 Bedroom Condo on 2nd Fr
Super clean and comfy condo! Was enjoying the view every time. Great location . The Host was super nice and helpful!

Ocean View Condo w/ King Bed & Steps to the Beach!
Our place was very comfortable, clean, and nicely decorated. Had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Location was terrific as well, with beautiful beaches close by. A short drive to many restaurants. Christopher reached out to help us if we needed anything. This was our first experience with Airbnb, and definitely a positive one!

Beachfront Designer Remodel/AC, 180⁰ Ocean Views
What a beautiful space! Janice was a wonderful host, you can really tell she loves this little piece of paradise. The ocean views are stunning, and the sea breeze is just perfect. You honestly don’t need the AC (and I’m menopausal) Janice provides great instructions on how to make the most of the breeze, and it’s far better than using air conditioning. The location is ideal — as the last unit on the floor, no one walks past, so you can comfortably enjoy having the doors open (there’s a secure screen door for peace of mind). Regarding the sandbags: they’re along the entire strip, and after staying here, I feel a previous reviewer was unfair. It’s clearly not something Janice can control, and the incredible ocean view far outweighs the sight of sandbags. The bed was also really comfortable, a big plus for me, as I have bad hips. Oh and turtles we saw every day!!

NEW Ocean View 1 Bedroom Condo with Common Hot Tub
Me and my husband loved the ocean front view! We enjoyed all the things that came with the condo, as snorkel gear,beach chairs, to laundry soap if needed! Fully stocked kitchen with dishes, and pots pan utensils. We did have a problem with the WiFi which we reached out to Dan and it was resolved very quickly! The place is so central and local to everywhere we wanted to explore! We truly enjoyed it!
