Great place- clean, cozy and a convenient location.

Stayed here with my husband and son while visiting the Boulder area. It was perfect for our needs; plenty of space for 3-4 people. Two comfortable king beds, quiet neighborhood close to Pearl St. and campus. Bonus: it's just a few blocks from the Y and they honored our membership so we were able to use the facility for free. If we're ever back in the area, we would definitely stay here again.

Excellent home away from home in paradise!

We found the condo so comfortable, everything you need available including beach gear including snorkeling. Sitting on the lanai at night was spectacular, and falling asleep to the sound of the ocean was exactly what we'd hoped for. Great location and amenities on the property - enjoyed the garden pool which was nicely shaded for hot days. Highly recommend this as a go-to for Maui.

Aloha Kim, thanks for the wonderful review, and we're so glad you found everything you needed at the condo. Sitting on the lanai is one of our favorite things too, whether to watch the morning sun light up the island of Moloka'i, or the sunsets and turtles. There's never ending beauty! Come back soon!

Everything about this property is perfect

This condo is by far the best studio unit I’ve stayed in over a decade of visiting west Maui. The owners are terrific and very responsive, the furnishings are very nice, and the kitchen is well appointed for doing all your cooking. Kahana is such a great location because so much is in walking distance. And the views.... can’t be beat.

A wonderful Maui experience for a couple on vacation.

We loved the central location, convenient to Kaanapali and points north as well as Lahaina to the south. LOVED being so close to the water and in a smaller, 3-story, non-commercial structure. The hosts were incredibly accommodating of COVID requirements and resulting changes in travel plans. Highly recommended.

Awesome whale watching from the Condo!

This condo was perfect! The only minor issue was that the mattress was too soft for us but that is the only complaint. Loved the condo and the location. We actually got to see a mother whale and her calf breach! Very memorable vacation!

Aloha Erin, we're glad you thought the condo and the location were perfect! How awesome to see the whales...this time of year they put on quite a show. Sorry the mattress was not to your liking, everyone has their preference. It is a medium firm pillow-top mattress, bought 3 years ago. The couple prior to your stay were there for three weeks, and they loved it. But rest assured, during our trip there next month, we will re-evaluate. Our goal is to keep everything in tip top shape. Wishing you much aloha, Crystal and Jim

Awesome Condo

Waking up and falling asleep to the ocean waves as close as it gets was awesome. The condo was fully equipped, AC worked well, and was very clean. There was plenty to do in the area from snorkeling to great food and drinks. I'd highly recommend this room for anyone looking to stay in Maui. The price point was lower than booking with most resorts.

Jim and Crystal are amazing. Their condo is cozy and in excellent shape. We were pleased to see that the pictures shown are exactly what the condo looks like. The area is quiet and the road isn’t too busy. The views from the lanai are breathtaking and the pretty sea turtles swimming just inches away from us was an awesome experience.
