Wonderful condo stay
We have stayed in this condo a few times now. Appreciate the upgrading of the wood floor in the bedroom, also major cleaning of excess chairs, closet, made it seem more spacious. Great location to restaurants, braced, hiking

Nothing makes us happier than having repeat guests stay with us again. Glad you liked the upgrades. Thanks for staying with us. Hope to you see you again soon!
The property cam e as advertised. Great location and view. The unit had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay. The whales were in season and easy to see from the unit. Sea turtles were frequent visitors to the shoreline. the sunsets were spectacular.
Best mattress and pillows we've ever had; walk-in shower with good water pressure and luxury towels; huge fridge; lanai views of whales, dolphins and turtles; parking spaces a bit tight but that's the only flaw. It had elevator near our unit as well. The photos are accurate. We'd stay there again.
We’ve stayed at this condo before and was very happy with our stay for the first time.This condo was just as perfect with a lot of the amenities needed to provide a small family.Location of the condo was great(close to beaches,shops,markets,local farmers market). This beach front condo is a definite must if your staying on the west side of the island

Thank you for the kind review, Jennel. It's our goal that every guest becomes a repeat guest, and we know that only happens if our condo delivers. This is a really underrated area on Maui, offering many different beaches, great food, shopping, and the activities are just down the road in Ka'anapali. We're so glad you had such a good stay, and look forward to you coming back a third time. Thanks for being our guest. Mahalo!

Just tremendous
I wanted to write you a short note to thank for providing my wife and I excellent accommodations during our stay in Maui. The whole process of booking and getting into the unit was made very easy, and the condo was perfect for us. Having breakfast every morning to that view was magnificent(and the sunsets weren't too shabby either). The condo fit all our needs, and we have a new favorite spot on the island. As you say there on the island, Mahalo.
Response from VrboOwner on 30 March 2020
Thank you for your view, Dunk. That lanai view is definitely one of a kind. It was our pleasure having you as our guest, and we do hope you consider returning in the future.
We really enjoyed our time here. The view is amazing-saw sea turtles every day just off shore. The unit is nice, the kitchen well stocked.
The chairs on the balcony are very low , which impeded the view and there was no hair dryer. Only minor inconveniences. The air conditioning was not sufficient to cool the bedroom but we found a fan in the closet.
Overall, I would recommend this to anyone.

Awesome Condo!
We stayed in #308 for two amazing weeks. If you love the ocean you will love this condo. The bed was very comfortable. The bed is important when you rent a Condo for two weeks. It was just like the one from home. Kitchen appliances were great. Brand new frig. Made plenty of ice and had plenty of room for our Costco Runs. Front room couch very comfortable. Flat screen Tv's in front room and bedroom. BUT, my favorite place in the Condo was the Lanai. We ate breakfast and drank our morning coffee while watching the turtles every morning. The grounds at the Haleialoha are maintained to perfection. The pool was crystal clean and the BBQ area. We have recommended this Condo to all of our friends and we are planning on returning in 2014. Thank you for sharing your home in Maui with us. ALOHA!

Thanks for your review, Sandra. This unit indeed sits right above the ocean. We've had guests who have said they spent many an hour taking it in. You were a great guests, and hopefully you return in the future.
Do not stay here until they replace the refrigerator
I have never left a bad review not have I ever had to call for anything to be fixed in a condo and we visit Hawaii at least once a year.
That being said, I had to call for additional extermination, that was no problem, they came right away.
What killed it for us was that they know there is an issue with the fridge. It stopped working 1/2 way into our stay. I called and reported it and NOBODY CAME and NOBODY CALLED ME BACK. I do not recommend staying here until they replace the refrigerator. All of your food will spoil and you won’t be reimbursed.

We loved our stay in this condo! We met so many owners and had such a good time. The location could not be better. Some of the feedback I did give the property manager is that the vacuum that was mentioned over a year ago still does not work so it's hard to vacuum up any sand that may be on the floor. The late afternoon sun shines straight into the condo and is blinding if you don't have the outdoor blinds pulled down. The blinds in this unit are shredded and wouldn't even come down. Also, if you look at most all of the other decks in the unit they all have taller deck chairs and tables. This unit has chairs that are much shorter so when you are sitting on them the railing on the deck completely blocks the view. We stacked 2 chairs together so it worked okay for the 2 of us. Last, the carpeting on the deck really needs to be replaced with tile or new carpeting as it's really tattered. Other than that the kitchen remodel is very nice and its a super comfortable place to stay.
Best views of ocean I've ever had. Property was well equipped for cooking, huge fridge w ice maker, a couple of minor maintenance issues. 2 burned out light bulbs, dishwasher could use replacing, window in bedroom that wont open and put a larger trash can in kitchen under sink. A/C unit worked great, however with Lanai doors open and windows open perfect ocean breeze kept things cool. King size bed very comfortable, excellent wifi and cable TV. Close to great restaurants, grocery store and world class golf at Kapalua.
We were quite happy with our visit. It was great having a king bed and while the AC unit doesn’t do the best job of cooling the entire unit, we found it quite comfortable to just open the windows and not bother with it. The view from the lanai could not be better. The grocery store down the street is convenient and sells laundry supplies in laundromat packaging, and Bad Ass (like the donkey) Coffee is only a 5 minute walk.
In a nutshell it was a great destination for a couple 40-somethings to get away for a week!
The property was great, but we tried to use the vacuum and it would just spit the dust right out behind us. The AC also made the deck extremely hot when it was on, so we tried to keep it off when we sat outside. You can see turtles swim by from the deck which was a magical experience. We truly enjoyed our stay!
Very convenient from everything around us. Clean and had everything we needed. All you need is to buy your food. Enjoyed seeing turtles on our last day. Felt safe while staying here. The bedroom was hot since the A/C is in the living room but the ceiling fan kept me cool at night.

Thanks for the five-star review, Rachel. That's great to hear our place worked out so well for you. Those turtles have really been coming out in force to feed, and it's a cool sight, watching them float around in the shallows. We have had some record temperatures this year, even into fall, but it's good to hear our place still kept you comfortable. We appreciate you being our guest. Please do come back and stay with us again. Mahalo!
This condo was perfect for the two of us on an anniversary trip. Everything in the condo was represented accurately except there was no a/c in the bedroom. The a/c unit was in the living room and did a great job cooling that room but didn’t do much to push the cold air back to the bedroom. However once we got the hang of the trade winds blowing through the condo with all the windows open and figured out the timing, it was very comfortable. The pool area was very nice and we enjoyed the small beach next door to the building. Lots of good restaurants and activities nearby. The responsiveness of the property manager was great when we needed a few small items fixed ( broken toilet handle, light bulb needing to be replaced). We had a wonderful time and appreciated the beach towels and beach chairs provided.

Thanks for the kind review, Debbie, and congratulations on your anniversary. We're so glad our condo worked out so perfectly for you. It has been a tremendously hot summer this year, and you came right at the end of it, but we're glad you were able to stay cool despite. Usually the trade winds, window A/C and overhead fans work together to keep things cool in the unit. As well, sorry for the small issues you encountered, but we're glad we were able to get them resolved for you quickly. Thanks for being our guest, and please do come back again. Mahalo!
Everything went well at our stay except for the condo not being cleaned completely. The maid service came immediately once another maid called them so we just waited on the lanai until they were done. Other than that, it was a great stay. Love all the sea turtle sightings!

Thank you for the review, Meaghan. We're sorry for the initial snafu of the condo not being cleaned upon your arrival. This is absolutely unacceptable, and we will be sure to investigate why this was not completed prior to your arrival. We're glad other than, you had a great stay. The turtles often do come to the backside of the property to feed in the shallows near dusk. It's definitely a treat to watch them bob along. We do appreciate you being our guest, and hope you will consider returning in the future. Mahalo!
