Maalaea 5 star Island Sands 100 2 bed Oceanfront

The place, itself, was okay. The problem was with the furnishings and supplies. The furniture is desperately in need of replacement. The cushions are very uncomfortable. It is painful to sit on them for any length of time. The dishwasher worked once and then it did not drain. We were in touch with the owner who, apparently came and repaired the problem. That lasted until the next wash. It stopped again. We had bought supplies for the dishwasher for naught!! We then had to purchase dish towels and soap to do the dishes for the rest of our stay. Not a big issue but not necessarily what we had planned on. We were there for a month and like to keep our place clean. There were no adequate supplies for this. Again, we had to purchase the supplies. BBQ was on site, again, no supplies. The cupboard doors were loose and almost fell off. We had to be very careful opening them. The lamp in the bedroom was very delicate, if you touched it, it fell apart. I, repeat, the place was okay, the furnishings cleaning supplies, and cupboards definitely distracted from our enjoyment of our stay. If these issues are addressed, it will be a delightful place for the next visitors. We left a not for the owner to help in overcoming these issues.

We loved the place and our stay was wonderful! A few items worth noting for the owner since I own rentals and know the importance of good feedback 1) stove light under MW was burnt out 2) coffee maker wasn’t cleaned and had previous grounds in basket 3) first time using disposal tons of food blew out other sink 4) never could get internet to function it said connected yet no texts or emails worked we used our hot spots for internet instead 5) toilet seat in twin bed bath repeatedly moved even after tightening it twice might need new bolts? Thanks again for sharing your great place and we do hope to return again soon! We visit for several weeks annually George

We enjoyed our stay while visiting our son who resides in Maui. Location was great. Condo was comfortable. Owner was very kind and available to meet and address our needs. Overall a great experience.

This place is located in a nice, safe and quiet neighborhood and the beach is down the street. The house was neat and clean. Beds were comfortable. Each room has a fan and there’s an AC in the living room and an AC in the other room. Really nice Maui breeze when the doors are opened. We sat in the patio and enjoyed the beautiful view outside. Plenty of towels and other supplies. Everything was great. We received a wedding present from Ron and Shirley. Thank you so much and I highly recommend this place. In the future we will definitely stay there again.

The apartment was very nice in a safe and quiet neighborhood. Beds were comfortable and it was nice to have a washer and dryer. There was no dining table inside so we sat outside on the patio. We never met the host but he was available by phone with our questions.

Great place and owner was awesome with communication.

Ron and Shirley are amazing hosts. Their condo was amazing, and even though it was just a long weekend, we felt like we had a vacation. Ron was communicative over text and email with any questions we had. The kids loved the pool, the beach down the street, the snacks at the general store, the aquarium, and we all enjoyed walking to everything so close by. I was stoked to see putt-putt right down the street and we didn't even have time to do that because we did so many other things. Highly recommended. If you are only going for a few days, you don't even need a car. But if you are ordering groceries online, definitely leave some extra time for them to arrive. 11/10

It was okay! Enough space for family of 5.

First, parking is at the back of the unit. It is reversed from other hotels we have stayed at. We found a lot of live and dead German roaches throughout the unit. We were not sure if they sprayed the unit before we got there. We were very satisfied and happy with the unit and will recommend it to other family and friends. The unit was comfortable, and the price was right. In the future I will be sure to stay with you again in this specific unit. Mahalo

The condo is in a very nice location. Lots of storage. Owners who live there were very friendly
