GREAT LOCATION, SPACIOUS DIRECT OCEANFRONT 2 BEDROOM CONDO

Incredible location!

Nice condo, lived up to expectations. The view from the lanai was fabulous.

The view was spectacular! Watching whales from our lanai was awesome. Relaxing on the lawn next to the ocean was so relaxing. The unit was ok, but needs updating and thorough cleaning. The showers especially need attention. The cookware was not great but we made do. Ice maker doesn’t work. Mahalo for a great stay.

The property is as described on the VRBO website. We saw Hawaiian Sea Turtles and Humpback whales every day from our Lanai. Being so close to the ocean was amazing. There was a lot of room for a family with 3 teen girls to have alone time when needed. The condo's furnishings and cookware are outdated and the dining room fan, shower doors, and some of the cookware were unclean. The dust on the dining room fan was so thick that it fell onto our food the first night we were there. After that, we just did not use it. There amenities in the condo were great - spices, oil, sunscreen, snorkelling gear, dishwasher/washing machine soap, etc. Overall, we had a great time. Thank you for letting us stay in your little piece of paradise!

The condo suited all our needs for a comfortable stay. Ice chests, beach chairs, umbrella, snorkel equipment and towels all provided. PLENTY of bath towels and wash clothes. Loved having a washer/drier and dishwasher. Could use some updated pots and pans as one of the perks to renting a condo is the ability to cook at home. This is our 2nd year in a row staying in this unit and no progress has been made to fix the stair access to the beach or to fix/replace 1 of the 2 BBQs, which was disappointing. Pool and spa very well maintained.

The location was great! Right on the water! Rooms/accommodation were as listed…a little outdated but fine. No AC in the unit but the fans and breeze were enough to cool things down. We had an issue twitch the kitchen plumbing, previous renters overstuffed the disposal and Bree had it fixed within 24hrs. Reallly appreciate how responsive she was.

Loved our stay and listening to the ocean everyday!

Great access to beaches and amenities. Staff and residents friendly.

The proximity to the water, great ocean view, sounds of the waves as you go to sleep at night made it worth the spend. Downsides were: too many small flies in the unit every day, even with the screens always closed, no immediate access to the shore (stairs have been in need of repair for some time it would appear), shore immediately in front of the property is a coral shelf rather than a beach and though there was a kitchen, we've stayed in units with much better accessories (pots, pans, etc. all were quite old and worn).

We really enjoyed our stay at the Paki Maui! We saw whales, rainbows and gorgeous sunsets from the 2 lovely lanais almost every day where the 4 of us had coffee, ate our take-out meals or just relaxed with a glass of wine. We could also hear the calming ocean sounds from the nice, comfortable living area and master bedroom area. A slightly outdated master area but still nice and workable especially with that beautiful ocean view. The 2nd bedroom is small with a double bed and a cruise-ship size shower. This condo would be perfect for a family with a couple of children. I would not necessarily recommend for 2 couples. (We just shared the master shower since the 2nd shower was so small and we were with family.) The kitchen area was very clean with updated appliances and a large refrigerator. Another big plus is the location. There are several good, walkable restaurants just across the street and a food truck court with a good variety of food options very nearby. (A 4-minute drive so could be considered walking distance.) Within up to a 20-minute drive, it's close to many GREAT snorkeling beaches, The Whalers Village and Old Town Lahaina and many good restaurants. You cannot snorkel from the condo property or walk along the shoreline as the stairs have been cordoned off for no access. (A little bit of an eye sore with the orange mesh fencing, etc.) The pool area was very popular and always busy with families with children. It closes at 9:30pm so the noise level was not a problem when sleeping. The highlight was seeing the whales so close that you could actually see them breaching, with tails and fins also very visible. We went on a whale watching tour early in our trip so understood more about some of their exhibited behaviors. Overall, it was a wonderful stay in Maui!
