    We really enjoyed our stay. When we visit Maui we always stay in Ma'alaea. The view is amazing, we even saw a pod of spinner dolphins from the lanai! Very appreciative that this unit had beach gear to use. The condo has all the dishes and cooking utensils needed. It was overall clean and comfortable. Really grateful for the Keurig machine! We will keep this unit in our favorites list for next time!

    Beautiful ocean view. Location was good, middle of Maui. No A/C, but not needed with the breeze. Very quiet. Had a very nice time.

    Overall stay was great! Beautiful location. Only complaint would be that the sheets and blanket on the bed was dirty and had stains. This is something that needs to be replaced!

    Great location and comfortable space. If you need beach access direct from the condo, you're out of luck, but overall a great value.Would have liked to have not heard the leaf blower and lawn service during the hours that the pool area was open.

    This is a perfect location that is peaceful, but near the center of all the larger cities and distant activities. We had the best time and enjoyed the view off the balcony every morning. Very charming island setting for adventures all over the island.

    This place is a perfect quiet getaway with an excellent view of the ocean. Condo was very clean and well equipped - kitchen had pots pans, microwave toaster and lots of other amenities. There is a hot tub and pool outside as well. There is a small beach outside where i got to see turtles almost every sunset.

    I love being here! The part that I loved the most was that it was centrally located, walking distance to the harbor and aquarium and you can get to anywhere on the island for about the same time and distances. We literally went everywhere. I loved the ocean view. Super score and not too much tourist in that area so it feels more private. Don't pass this one by because every part of it was A

    We loved the location, it was quiet and convenient. Beautiful views and as a bonus turtles come in the early evening to rest on the beach. The condo is well appointed with everything you need. The bed was very comfortable. Great communication from start to finish. Would definitely recommend.

    Such an incredible stay! This location is quiet and private but also close to a lot of activities! Kihei to the east and Lahaina to the west, you are in the perfect spot! Absolutely beautiful views! We can't wait to come back!

    The only things that I would recommend is the owner should invest in a heat pump to cool off the condo and hide the wire routing to the fan behind the ceiling sheet rock and wall sheet rock.

    We love this 1b apartment. It is a not a new building I guess it was built at 90s, the decoration are old which we love the style, there are a lovely guestbook started 1992, some old ocean festival posters, travel books published 2000s when internet doesn't has fast speed, and other interesting books and dvds. Besides, the place is well cleaned and well equipped with kitchen supplies, beach chairs, and yoga mats. A good beach with 5min walk nearby
