It was a very peaceful, clean, and convenient. Local to bars, restaurants, beaches with surf lessons, and beautiful views.
Great location and great place for a couple. It’s as described. Right across the street from the beach offering superb sunsets. Comfy place that’s well stocked with spices, tp, paper towels - all the things you usually have to buy at a VRBO. We never got a location from VRBO (no “here are you keys” email), but the host replied immediately upon our message. I would definitely stay here again!
Very nice complex. Clean and close to everything. Owner really went out of her way to help me out when my flight was canceled and I could have been homeless for 2 nights. Would definitely stay here again!
This condo had everything we needed, and some things we didn’t know we would. Plenty of linens and kitchen supplies, comfortable bed and sofa, and a great location across the street from the beach. Hot tub and pool were especially nice after a long day at the beach.
We are actually satisfied with the stay. It’s big enough for 2 people, studio apartment with kitchen and everything you need. It was not properly cleaned , looks old , but we are really fine with that. Location is also great, we enjoyed sunsets on the beach across the street. It could be loud for sensitive people during the evening and early morning because it’s near the main road and cars are pretty often. But we are happy that chose this stay.
This is a lovely spot, very conveniently in North Kihei so it’s pretty centrally located. The condo was quite clean and included many useful things — so nice to not have to pack beach towels! We enjoyed several meals on the balcony. It’s amazing to be able to walk across the street and into the water! The closest beach is well sheltered for kids to play in, with a number of turtles who choose to sleep on the rocks! The only drawback is that the street noise is a bit loud through the night, but the fan of the AC unit gave enough white noise to block it out. A perk: we really appreciated being able to check in early. Everything was easy!

Do not stay here if you have more than 2 people
We stayed at Jennifer’s place for just one night, and we were so happy it was only one night. The condo is very small but was pretty clean. However, there were stains all over the dining room chairs and the items were definitely old. We pulled out the pull out couch (easy enough) and there were stains all over the mattress and it was ripped all over. Pulling out the couch left no room for walking in the condo but that wasn’t the worst part. I have never, ever seen or slept on a pull out couch that is in worse shape than this one. You can feel and hear every spring. It completely sags in the middle at least 10” and you honestly feel like you are going to fall right through. It was really unbearable. My mistake though as I read some of the reviews and other people have said the exact same thing. So obviously the owner is aware and I also contacted her about it too. The plus side is that the other real bed in the condo is actually very comfortable, so if it is just two people staying there, it may actually be ok. The ocean can be seen from the balcony which was nice, but there is no place to walk for coffee, groceries or restaurants in that area.
Nice property with good parking, pool, and hot tub. Convenient location, beach adjacent. The only downside is that the unit faces directly onto Kihei Road, the busy highway leading into Kihei. This made for continuous traffic noise making it hard to enjoy the balcony.

Assez grand, bien équipé, grand balcon, grande piscine, à pied d’une plage. Ça aurait besoin d’un ménage plus complet. La rue étant très passante, toujours du bruit de trafic.
The check in process was easy and simple. The location is great, view of the pool and ocean from the balcony.
Once I entered the room, it looked just like the pictures. Dated. It could definitely use some updates, though the electric glass stove top was nice.
The bathroom door kept getting caught and my kids and I would get stuck in there, but got out after moving the knob around until it got unstuck. I would fix this before someone actually breaks the door knob trying to get out. Kids also complained about the pullout bed mattress.
Lastly, check-in was easy breezy. But checking out, well let’s just say that there’s a list of chores asked of you before leaving. i.e. removing sheets from bedding, putting them in laundry basket, cleaning dishes, emptying the trash… but isn’t that why we pay a cleaning fee? I’m neat and clean up after myself, but this struck me as out of the ordinary.
Overall it was okay. We only stayed at the condo for 2 days. It’s got some good thing going for it, but could use some updates that would create a much richer experience for the renters.
If you are looking for somewhere to stay, this is the place. It was a easy process and had no issues throughout our stay. The floor was a bit dirty and we found a little bit of hair throughout the stay but overall it was a great place to stay. Not walking distance to food, but the beach is right across the way.

The pros: The location and building were great. The apartment did have all the household items that were needed and the beach chairs were helpful.
The cons: The inside of the apartment was old, dated and appeared somewhat dirty. It was an extremely small apartment that would be suitable for maximum 2 adults as using the pullout couch or inflatable mattress would make it extremely challenging to move around the apartment. The cost of this apartment was overall too high for what you get.
