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.

If you want to explore the entire island, just gas up the car around the corner and hit the road to your next unforgettable Maui adventure!
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 Our only suggestion would be to change the keylock box - it’s outdated and we had a hard time using it.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.
Fantastic! We really loved everything about this trip. The unit was beautiful. Perfect location. Clean and well appointed. We hope to re book this same unit next year!
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.
Nice room, nice view, central to activities
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.
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.
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.
We enjoyed the view from lanai and unit was nice but location is ok had limited amenities near unit. It was quiet and turtles would come onto small sandy area between units but no useable beach on location. Could update bedroom tv and install tv in rear bedroom. Overall enjoyed our stay
We enjoyed our stay and loved Maui.
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.
This is a truly fabulous condo. Everything from the view (which is beyond imagination), to the comfort of the living area. Beds were fantastic, kitchen had everything we needed, very clean and beautiful. Did I mention the views ... PERFECT!
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.
Very clean and well appointed! Good location for us.
We are a family of 4 adults at this time. The condo worked perfectly for us. It is modern, clean, convenient to the entire rest of the island and a great view from the linai. We enjoyed out stay and highly recommend the condo. Check-in was easy.
