Villa 9

The property owned by Gal in Kihei proved to be more than just a place to stay; it was a complete tropical paradise that has been etched into our honeymoon memories forever. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with heartfelt touches of hospitality - a bottle of sparkling wine waiting for us, setting the mood for a romantic retreat. This was just the first hint of the property's charm. It boasted immaculate and beautiful interiors, exuding a warm, inviting ambiance. The amenities were nothing short of wonderful. Everything was thoughtfully designed with the guests' comfort in mind. What really set our stay apart was the extraordinary level of hospitality. When our flight was unexpectedly cancelled, the management was kind enough to extend our stay by an extra day at no additional cost. This gesture allowed us to fully enjoy our honeymoon without any stress of finding a new place or additional charges. To top it all off, when we encountered a minor issue - a broken blender, the response was swift and efficient. Within minutes, the property manager was at our doorstep with a new blender top, allowing us to continue our smoothie-making plans without a hitch. Our experience was a combination of a stunning location, incredible amenities, and unparalleled hospitality. I would highly recommend this property to anyone seeking a remarkable stay in Kihei. It is a place where you're treated not just as guests, but as ohana. Five stars all around, mahalo!

This villa was perfect for what we were looking for on our honeymoon! It was secluded and affordable and in an amazing location where we could walk to everything

Wonderful stay from beginning to end! We had a big group and rented almost all the villas. Everyone had their own privacy in their villa when needed and the pavilion pool area was great for being together. Easy walk to town for food and drinks. Easy walk to the beach. Everything was great. If we go to Maui with a group we will definitely stay here again.

Great place to stay easy access - awesome pool - private beach was a plus

I really hate to leave such a glowing review because I know this place is going to be impossible to get into once word gets out. This is the loveliest VRBO we've ever enjoyed. PERFECT in every way from accommodations, appointments, and amenities to location to the countless beaches within walking distance. The staff could not be more pleasant. The cleaning crew is magical in their dedication and talent. The grounds are delightful. It's quiet as a church mouse. The owners thoughtfully provide beach chairs, umbrella, a cooler, a drying rack, beach towels, and boogie boards. One can lounge at the salt water pool either in the sun on a chaise or in the shade of a living adjacent sitting area. I'm copying some of the design elements they used in construction. Do you want to keep up with your yoga practice? No problem. Just join the team on MWF at 7 am. Reserved parking behind a gate. The road at the front is mostly used for walkers or an occasional local resident. The property offers 2 paddle boards for guest use. There's a giant park across the street. The local grocery store is within walking distance. We loved every minute of this place.

We stayed in Villa 9 for 14 days with our 2 children. There was more than enough room. The place was very accommodating and close to the beach. It is also very close and walking distance to shops and restaurants. The staff was very nice and always there to help or just to chat. We hope to one day come back!

The villa was lovely and is well equipped. We enjoyed using the free paddle boards and the 100 steps to take them to the beach. The management are friendly and responsive. The brand new pool is beautiful and the lounge chairs are so comfortable. We loved it so much, that my parents are staying there in February. We will definitely return to the Villas by the Cove and we highly recommend staying there.

Great partial ocean views! If your looking to learn to surf, this place is perfect; you’re right across the street from a beginner break and have free access to boards. You’re also very close to a large beautiful, swimmable beach (5min walk). For those with a kid, there was a large playground in walking distance. The place has a new owner, who is very responsive. I would comment on the place itself but we were told it’s being fully renovated so there’s no need; I would assume it will be even nicer for the next guests. Highly recommend!

The manager and owner were hospitable, making sure I was enjoying my stay. They are remodeling the units, they are beautiful!

Great unit, very comfortable bed, ac works great
