About this property

Remodeled ground floor & easy walk to the beach! 10% is donated to the whales

Aloha and welcome to DG-14! Ground floor and closest unit to the pool and BBQ - no need to wait for an elevator or trek everything through hallways. Largest one bedroom layout within the Kihei Akahi.

Steps away from Kamaole II beach, restaurants, the pool and BBQ. Designer selected paint and decor with a comfortable island feel. Laminate beech wood flooring and tile throughout the unit (no carpet). Relax on our lanai and expansive grassy area perfect for lounging or dining, while the kids run and play. Toys in unit for the kids (legos, magnatiles, games) a Smart TV and free WiFi. The closet is filled with beach necessities including beach chairs, floaties, beach toys, beach towels, a wagon, an umbrella, a surf board and coolers.

Tiki torches set the mood in the evenings and are visible from the unit while cooking dinner. The condo stays cool during summers with a powerful air conditioner in the living room, ceiling fans in both the living room and bedroom, and a Minka fan in the bedroom. The sofa pulls out into a high quality memory foam mattress. Our condo also features a fully remodeled kitchen with Cambria Quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances.
The bathroom remodel was completed in 2023 and includes a Signature Hardware rain shower, rock shower floor and a stunning marble vanity area. Small details throughout including wooden hangers, charging stations on both sides of the beds, a small library of books, and more - all to make the stay more comfortable.

No car necessary; you can walk to two of the most beautiful beaches in south Maui: Kam II and Kam III beaches. Great location for relaxing, picnics, surfing, snorkeling, tide pooling, whale watching in season, and watching sunsets. The Kihei Akahi Resort is a safe (24 hour security) and quiet complex that features two pools, BBQs and tennis courts & pickleball; all available at no extra charge.

You can also walk to many restaurants that have views of the ocean. Next door to the complex is Fred’s, one of the island’s most popular Mexican restaurants. Moose McGillicuddy’s (best happy hour on the island), shave ice, cinnamon rolls, coffee as well as lots of shopping, beach equipment rental companies, and local restaurants all in walking distance.

We donate ten percent of your rental fee (excluding tax, and fees) to the Hawaiian Islands Humpback Whale National Marine Sanctuary. We want to help save the marine life around the Hawaiian islands. We hope you are as passionate as we are when it comes to Hawaii and the animals that live in the Hawaiian waters.

We are able to offer flexible check in and check out times depending on availability - just ask!

The owners have a son that is extremely sensitive and we apologize that we cannot accommodate you. If a smoke smell is detected, you will forfeit your deposit and will be unable to rent from us in the future. Mahalo for your understanding.

Please call for availability and questions. 805-208-7863

Fantastic property

Check-in was a breeze. Access to the unit was easy peasy. Everything we needed was there, from kitchen accessories, to every beach item imaginable. The only thing we needed to provide was snorkeling gear. The property owners were a dream to work with, very responsive to a couple issues that we encountered. Would absolutely stay here again.

Amazing location

Everything from checkin, location, amenities, and checkout were fantastic. Property was very clean and offered plenty of amenities that I don’t think I can go back to starting at hotels/resorts while staying in Hawaii. In room laundry, kitchen, and beach gear (chairs, cart, sand toys) were very helpful and welcomed.

Glenwood , thank you for choosing to stay in our condo, again. We agree with you on the location of our condo. Our grandson loves to go in the pool. So, having it so close to our back door, we don't mind taking him every time he wants to jump in. We continuously add new items for our guests to enjoy, and take suggestions seriously.

About the host

Hosted by Terri Schur and Jodie & Cory Anttila

Host profile image
Gary and I love Hawaii. We return there every year to relax. Before we do relax, we always shop for new linens, kitchen supplies, and decor. Gary is retired from teaching at a public school, but still supervises student teachers. I am retired from teaching health and life science at the public schools. I now spend my days helping to watch my grandsons, traveling, cooking, or reading in our garden. We call Southern California our home, for now. We have four, rescue dogs and a bird. Yes, we love animals and miss them all terribly when we are in Hawaii. We have traveled extensively through out the world, but nothing beats Hawaii for beauty and relaxation. Please come, and enjoy Hawaii. We will help you plan your trip and make sure you enjoy every minute.

Why they chose this property

Kihei Akahi is across from one of the best beaches in Hawaii, and definitely on Maui. Here, you can relax, enjoy the tide pools, watch the whales play from the shore, enjoy the beautiful sunsets, and walk in the sand to your hearts content. Our condo makes for easy access to the pool, the beach, to restaurants, and to evening walks. What more could we ask for!

What makes this property unique

Our home in Hawaii is quiet and peaceful. Close enough to the ocean to walk to every evening to watch the sunset. We enjoy the safety of the island, too. The people are friendly and there are plenty of dogs on the beach to watch play and romp in the water. We love to go in the winter to watch the whales. Sitting on the beach, or driving the coast, we can see whales breach, show off their flukes, or spy hop without going out on a boat. Snorkeling and scuba are easy to do from shore, so the price doesn't get expensive for these activities. Maui is joy to us, and one day we hope to make it a year round home. Come and enjoy!
