Beautiful central location

Beautiful beach and ocean views, near the end of the paved road location with a secluded beach park. That beach is over a mile long.
Looking south of condos for over a mile.

Beautiful ocean front view.

We loved being right on the beach. We ate all of our meals on the lanai so we could take in the sights and sounds of the ocean. We would definitely stay here again.

The view from the balcony was phenomenal!! It is retro style but very comfortable, no problems sleeping and no sore back in the morning!! No AC but the breeze off the ocean did just fine, even had to use beach towels for lap throws in the evening. Very clean property and nice accommodations such as access to beach next door and a solar heated pool…. Everyone was very nice and inviting!!

The hostess was great to answer questions. The view was incredible. Price was good so we understand why the condo has not been updated. We will recommend it to others.

Amazing location

We had a wonderful 7 day in Maui, and this property helped make it even better. The location is perfect, centrally located on the island in Maalaea. Watching turtles swimming right below us, while sitting on the lanai, was amazing. The condo was clean, comfortable and well stocked with all the necessities.

Very good value and location

We stayed a week. The property is older and some of the furnishings are a bit dated, but overall clean, comfortable and well furnished for our needs. The view from our balcony was amazing. The location is very convenient for getting to all parts of the island. The owner was quick to respond to our questions.
