Sure, TV, but with a view like that, isn't playing guitar on the lanai better?
fresh sashimi + champagne + ocean = heavenly Maui
All the comforts of home! (along with some whales and a jellyfish lamp)
Champagne, palm trees, the ocean, and the sun setting.

Sep/Oct Special 15% off! Romantic Maui Getaway, 25' from the Ocean

Romantic Maui Getaway, 25' from the Ocean ~ Relax with the Sun, Wind and Waves

One of the best condos in Maui (with the reviews to prove it)! (Hawaii Tax ID: TA-113-583-7184-01) And for August and September it's up to 15% off! (usually $219, now $189-199)

TL;DR description:

- 25 feet from the ocean with an almost 180 degree view.
- Air Conditioner plus a ceiling fan
- High End Sterns & Foster King Mattress
- Many amenities for a perfect vacation: cooler, beach towels, umbrella, chairs, games, books, DVDs, and a guitar, if you go in for such things. :-)
- and in the kitchen: microwave, coffee maker, tea kettle, juicer, rice cooker, oven, full sized fridge, high end pans, etc.
- Super fast internet, if you _have_ to work
- Sofa bed
- Zoned for a hotel, so you can book with confidence it'll be available regardless of any of the pending short-term rental legislation (unlikely to pass, but there are some folks trying to ban STRs in apartment zones).

Hi! I'm Jim Tierney and I stay here a couple months a year, so it's important the condo is kept in great shape. Both for myself and my guests. I'm constantly updating the condo. For example, I added a King bed last year, and added new art, a kitchen backsplash and replaced the old window with a new double pane window this year. If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to me!

The only fee I charge is a $150 cleaning fee (which goes to the cleaner), there are no management, resort, or whatever fees that you'll have to pay me. Tax and the fee VRBO charges you for using the platform I have no control over.

The beautiful pacific ocean is 25 ft away from your lanai! Listen to the waves and see the stunning views of Lanai and Molokai. During whale season, you can see whales all day long. The condo itself is designed as something I would expect from an upscale Maui resort. So it's very well appointed and very comfortable. Including a high end Sterns & Foster King mattress! A vacation condo should feel like home and, at the same time, somewhere special. That special place that you look forward to returning to.

I've put a lot of work into the place and care a lot about the condo and your experience in it. You can see that reflected in the reviews! :-)

Also, check out the beautiful, custom shower! Finally got around to remodeling the shower and it came out amazing. All slate, river rock, and quartzite. I'm stoked about it and you will be too. :-)

While the ocean is 25 feet away, there is not a sandy beach in front of the property. However, there are some good beaches within easy walking distance. (see the photos)

I keep my calendar updated. If it says condo is available, it is. I know it's frustrating when you see an available condo and it's just due to folks not updating their calendars.

Key Amenities: Air Conditioner, high-end King mattress, free reserved parking, wired/wireless super fast internet (250mb down/20mb up), flat screen TV, remodeled kitchen, remodeled shower, and lots of small amenities like a hair dryer in the bathroom and juicer in the kitchen.

Check out the Google Map below with some great recommendations for eating and activities. See the video for the view off of the lanai.

I figure there's two things people want from a Maui vacation... 1) to see and hear the ocean from their lanai and 2) to get some sleep. :-) As for the ocean, the condo is 25 feet away from the ocean so you can sit on the lanai and watch the waves crash into the sea wall or the sun set over the wide pacific and disappear behind Molokai. When it comes to sleeping I'm pretty particular about the mattress I sleep on, so it was important to find a good mattress that rivaled what I expect from an upscale hotel. It's amazingly comfortable and I think you'll find it's wonderful to listen to the waves as you drift off to sleep.

It's a wonderful, luxurious space that will give you everything you want from a Maui vacation. I look forward to having you experience it for yourself.

If you're into cooking, the kitchen has been completely remodeled with granite countertops and custom wood cabinets. You have all the cookware necessary for a complete meal and then some. The dishes, glassware, and tableware are all beautiful and will make having dinner on the lanai at sunset feel like a 5 star restaurant. You are also a couple minutes away from a market that specializes in local and organic foods, if you're looking for fresh ingredients.

There's also a brand new air conditioner, which is not common in vacation rentals.

Of course, there's the usual stuff, 32' flatscreen TV with DVD and cable, high speed internet with WiFi, speakers to plug an iPod into, hair dryer, small library of DVDs, and even a desk to write postcards on or check email (not that you'd be doing that on your vacation). There's also stuff like beach chairs, a boogie board, snorkel equipment, and beach towels. The couch becomes a queen sized, Simmons sofa bed to accomodate kids or another adult. This IS a sofa bed. It's a nice one, but like all sofa beds it's not the paragon of comfort, especially for adults.

There are two pools. However, this is a residential condo complex (meaning folks live here year round) so the pools aren't resort quality. There are no waterslides, bars, spa, lifeguards, or attendants handing you towels. They are nice, clean pools, but more modest than you'd find in a resort. Of course, the condo has pool/beach towels for your use and it's easy enough to mix up your own drinks in the blender. :-) There's also a couple day spas a short distance away.

There's a grassy area directly in front with a gas BBQ, tables, and chaise lounges. You're one block from restaurants and shopping. It's an excellent central location to go north to Kapalua or south to Kaanapali.


The condo is non-smoking and is on the second floor, up one flight of stairs.

Cancellation policy: you can cancel 45 days or more and get a full refund. 30-45 days out, you just lose the deposit. So it's less strict than what VRBO shows, but I can't customize that. Also, if I can rebook the dates I will also give you a full refund, regardless of when you cancel.

About the host

Hosted by Jim

Host profile image
Hi, I'm Jim Tierney. I live most of the year in San Francisco and escape to Maui whenever I get tired of the foggy weather. I run a small software company and have the good fortune of being able to work anywhere there's an internet connection. Luckily that's the case with Maui, so whenever I get an urge for whale watching, diving, or laying in the sun it's no problem coming over. I love diving and the diving in Maui is spectacular, there are some really beautiful spots. I also have a passion for photography, particularly whales and outdoor scenes, so you'll see some of my work on the walls of the unit.

I hope you'll check out my place. I put a lot of work into it making sure it was a livable space for when I'm there. So I think the standards I have for the condo is much higher than most rental units.

Why they chose this property

I bought this because I'll be there about 3 months of the year and I wanted something on the ocean. A friend of mine lives in the same building so I was very familiar with the property and all it offered (ok, so mostly it offered the ocean about 20 feet way :-). It's amazing to watch the sun set during the summer, see the whales during the winter, and listen to the waves all year long.

What makes this property unique

A wonderful view (did I mention you're 25 feet from the ocean :-), a high-end, very comfortable bed, a full kitchen, and air conditioning.
