ISLAND SANDS COMPLEX:

Island Sands is a proud, free-standing structure along the Hauoli St. Towering six stories tall, the tan building is hard to miss. Designated parking can be found directly out front or in the west parking lot just before the complex, both lots being shaded with the Hawaiian rainbow eucalyptus trees and dancing coconut palms. The two elevators can be found on the east side of the complex, just passed the resident managers office and next to a calming koi fish pond. Lush green lawns spread down along the oceanfront, leading to a gated pool and multiple public BBQ’s (2), where you can relax, swim, grill, and watch for sea turtles or whales depending on the season (whales visit our islands between the months of December- mid-April). Just outside the pool gate there is a public wash off station to be used any time at your convenience, for cleaning off before residing back to your Maui hale(home). Each floor of is outfitted with a trash shoot, but recyling must be brought down to the ground floor and placed in designated bins on the south side of the complex.

Island Sands is a brief 5 min walk (0.3 mi) via Hauoli St to the longest beach on Maui- approx. 6 miles of sugary sand to explore, swim, snorkel, boogie board and even surf at times.

MAALAEA AREA:

For an epic adventure away, guests will appreciate Island Sand’s close proximity to the Maalaea Boat Harbor 8 min walk (0.4 mi) via Hauoli St, you can enjoy the Maalaea harbor, offering several ocean excursions with world-famous sailing, snorkeling, sportfishing, and whale watching.

Christmas Vacation in Maui
We throughly enjoyed our stay in Maalea. The condo is centrally located in Maui which made travel to the Northern Kaanapali Beach or Southern Makena Beach areas very accessible. The condo was very clean and well appointed. We particularly appreciated how well the kitchen was stocked and the inclusion of quality beach gear. Overall, you cannot beat the view of the sunrise coming over Haleakala and since we visited in winter we were able to view humpback whales daily from the balcony.

Beautiful view and lots of turtles!
Very clean and comfortable! We could watch turtles swimming and coming to the beach from the balcony. Kitchen was well stocked and there was everything you needed for a day at the beach. Location was nice to walk to shops and restaurants at the harbor. Unit clearly was a little older but has been kept nice. Only gave a 4 overall rating due to 1) AC could not be set lower than 74 and it got stuffy and warm in the condo at times and 2) door to the patio stuck and was so difficult to open and close and took so much effort that I pulled a muscle in my back just trying to get it closed.

Beautiful view
This property does have a beautiful view. The “beach access” is about a 20 foot patch of beach surrounded by rock. The swimming pool is too tiny to make up for not being able to relax on the beach. It is a great place to what watch and relax on the lanai.

Turtles!
We loved getting to see the turtles come to shore. The condo was great but not walking distance to any restaurant etc. However, it is easy to go to each end of the island. Also loved the split rooms since we were two couples staying. The front bed was a little lumpy and the bed was a little hard. Overall great condo and we would stay again.

Perfect for Two Couples
Island Sands is centrally located for all things Maui. The condo is the perfect layout for two couples and very well stocked. Recommend renting a car and exploring the island! Hire a driver (tour) for Hana so everyone can enjoy. Uber is also easy from this location and the Four Winds crew from Maalaea Harbor was very professional on our snorkel trip! Tante’s at the harbor is a nice dinner spot. There are several grocery stores within 15 minutes. Keep in mind Maalaea Harbor is the 2nd windiest Harbor in the world, but the wind didn’t hold us back! Haycraft Park (beach) is only 1/4 mile and a great morning walk place. The condo is stocked with beach chairs, umbrellas and towels. Never turned the a/c on in February and slept to the sound of the ocean every night. The lanai was prefect for morning coffee, evening cocktails and whale watching! What a treat! Overall a fantastic stay.

Great views- sunrises and turtles
We really enjoyed our stay at Island Sands. The view was great and each morning we were treated to a wonderful sunrise. Listening to the ocean waves lull you to sleep in the front bedroom was peaceful. Green Sea Turtle frequent the waters and beach which you have a full view of from the balcony. The layout of the condo is great for 2 couples. The 2 bedrooms are at opposite ends of the condo so allows for privacy. The kitchen had everything we needed, although is not very well lit. The condo is close to the airport and Kehei, and is super close to the Aquarium and several boating excursion options right in Maalaea. The beach is super small and not a beach for walking on or beach combing. You can bring chairs down to sit at the water’s edge, but not much room. The pool was a great temperature and very refreshing. Several chaise lounges to sit on around the pool area. No umbrellas so depending on where the sun is at, you may or may not have shade. Overall we enjoyed the peace and calm at the Island Sands condo. Great view, nice location.

It’s all about the location
This condo’s location is great with a balcony overlooking a beautiful area full of whales and turtles. Within walking distance (1/4 mile) to snorkeling and tour boats. Two king beds were great for two couples traveling together. New washer /dryer was also an excellent convenience. Downside is that the secondary bedroom has no drapes or curtains on the frosted jalousie windows. No view from that room and light from parking lot shines in room all night -an issue for light sensitive sleepers. Primary bedroom has great view and balcony but room is quite small and bathroom must be entered from hallway, limiting its privacy. Parking lot is also very tight and is not monitored at night so when our spot was taken we had no place to park except the street. Pool is small with very hot pool deck and no umbrellas for any shade. Teeny adjacent beach area is all rocks so you must travel to a public beach for swimming. If it’s whale watching from balcony you want this is a good spot. But amenities were limited.

Perfect home base for exploring the island, great view from the lanai and great beach accessories
Our group of five enjoyed staying here 6 nights of our Maui trip. Check-in process went smoothly. No complaints with the unit, other than a lack of coffee filters which the property manager dropped off the next day for us. If AC is a must you may want to skip until they install a split unit. We found the fan in the back bedroom and keeping the windows open at the front and back of the unit worked well enough to keep us cool at night (March). Keep in mind Maalea harbor condos are off the beaten path without a lot of options unless you have a car, but we did eat at a couple restaurants across from the harbor. At check in they gave us coupons for half off at one of them which worked well before our whale watching excursion. The area can be windy, especially in the afternoon, but now that the sugar industry is gone no issues with soot/smell from burns as may have once been the case. Another minor point is that it's in the approach path for the airport but that didn't bother us. Great walking beach nearby (at the end of the road) that's mainly deserted. Not great snorkeling at the beach in front of the condo but there are some decent spots if you head out a couple hundred yards to explore and you're likely to see turtles).

The condo was clean and well equipped. We enjoyed our stay in it. Great management company - they had thought of everything we might need to have a good stay in the condo. They had left beach equipment, towels, and starter supplies (bathroom, kitchen, and washer)! Our only suggestion would be to change the keylock box - it’s outdated and we had a hard time using it. Perhaps putting a modern electronic lock with codes will work better for a rental.

Not only is the condo very well appointed, we loved the location--15-20 minutes to Lahaina, Kehei, and the airport. We were able to see whales and turtles from the lanai! We also really liked having the split A/C units, so we could keep the bedrooms different temps, etc. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay here again!
