Beachfront Wailea condo w/ direct beach access and pools

Road noise was terrible. The condo was infested with cockroaches

The condo development is excellent. However this unit, 36B, is very noisy as it is right next to a very busy street. The lanai is very noisy and often conversation is not possible. It would have been nice to know that when making the selection.

The property is situated in an ideal spot. So close to the ocean that we didn't need to search for another beach. The Pavillion is a great social meeting place and equipped with a kitchen and bbqs. The unit was comfortable, bit dark though. What made our stay uncomfortable were the roaches we found all over the unit. We followed the rules of not keeping garbage out and keeping everything put away but still we would find bugs around.

Ekahi Village is an amazing property on Keawakapu beach, which in my opinion is one of the best in Maui. The grounds are beautiful. There's a pool and pavilion with a full kitchen right off the beach, which was perfect for making dinner and watching the sunset. We traveled with 3 other families and enjoyed nightly gatherings at the pavilion. Kids loved the pool. The unit itself is average. Minimal sunlight. The master bed was very soft but we slept well. The master shower head is broken and sprays 1/3 of the water side ways but the other shower /tub was nice. The washer/dryer are extremely loud. Kitchen was well stocked except for no spatula or rubber spatulas. Minimal food storage. Our 2 boys slept on the pullout couch, which was as expected. There is plenty of storage in the unit for clothing. The master bath has a large closet. There was no storage for all the stuff that travels back and forth to the beach. This unit is on a 4 lane road, which is just on the other side of the trees you see off the lanai. It is LOUD. It was unenjoyable for us to sit out there or to leave windows open due to traffic noise. It's a long walk up a steep hill to get back from the beach, not recommended for anyone out of shape. The resort itself is convenient to the beach but the unit is not. Also, found a large dying cockroach on the floor by my bed the last morning - they did spray for bugs. Overall would stay at the resort again but probably a different unit. For the price it was decent.

The unit was very clean & the bed was super comfy. However, the unit needs to be updated, ie. TVs, rugs. Also, negatives were it is a long walk to the beach/pool & all uphill on the way back. It’s also very loud on the patio and couldn’t sleep w/ the windows open b/c of noise. The management company was very quick to respond to any issues.

First of all we were suggested to walk barefooted in the apartment.My husband tried that and after 5 minutes the soles of his feet were black ( literally black) Clearly the tiles and carpets needs a good cleaning. This unit is very dark so we had the management come and put new lamp bulbs....but that didn't solve the problem as they put 25 wats bulbs at best They have a carpet on top of the fixed carpeting in the bedroom.Well it moves and my husband fell and hit the cupboard and cut his arm and bled all over the bed sheets Then we had 2 centipedes They need to put some chemicals around the unit. The patio can't be used : no light and too much road noise We are very disappointed and for the huge sum of money that it cost we were expecting a lot better.Half of the price would have been too much.

We rented this unit for the location and amenities. The pool and beach access are awesome and the family friendly atmosphere made it easy for kids to make friends.Yes it’s a bit of a walk from the unit down to the pool and main bbq but that didn’t bother us. Our family comes to Maui annually and we are very familiar with the area. As for the unit it was clean but very dated and there is a need for some basic general maintenance throughout the unit. For example the shower handle and toilet handle both needed to be tightened. Also the shag rug in the master really needs to go. The kitchen is well stocked with utensils, knives, and all the things. There seem to be duplicates and because of that there is not an empty cubbard to put dry groceries away so they sat on the counter. The unit is spacious and had good beach chairs but it is quite dark. kids slept in the hide-a-bed which was in good condition and as comfortable as those kinds of beds can be. The unit is also very close to the road which upon arrival was concerning but they glass upgrades make it so any traffic noise at night is non-existent. Ultimately this was a budget friendly rental which got us the location we wanted.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This property has a great layout for a one bedroom with having the extra bathroom. We didn't use the outdoor patio much because the property is right next to the street and there is no view as it is on the ground floor and surrounded by trees and shrubs.

Only 5 minutes to oceanfront paradise. Unit was great. Stayed cool all day. Private. Pull out couch not the most comfortable, and small hot water tank meant quick showers. Overall, a great place I’d stay at again.

The property is beautiful and great for children. Our unit was older and missing a few amenities but overall a great location, we'll head back to the Property, just stay in a different unit.
