This was the perfect spot for us. Spectacular ocean view with lots of whales and turtles. Close to everything and not too terribly busy. Great beach (and the find had all we needed). The check in and out was a breeze and so was the communication! We would for sure stay here again! Loved it!
Literally could watch the humpbacks every day all day sitting on the balcony. Nice and quiet spot. Highly recommend for couples looking for a romantic getaway.
Absolutely loved this property and really hope to stay here next year. Well maintained with beautiful views of the ocean. Saw so many turtles in the water and on the beach. Highly recommend this condo.
Everything I needed ( well stocked kitchen/ bathroom, very clean ) endless views and whales were provided.

Serene Condo.
This studio condo is very well cared for and made for a most enjoyable vacation for the two of us. The owners take great pride in the beauty and functionality of their property, and that was very much appreciated. Beach chairs were included and used almost daily. The bed was comfortable, and the a/c unit was exceptional for a wonderful nights sleep. The property manager, Maui Westside Properties, was a delight to work with. Their communications were excellent, thorough and accommodating throughout our stay. True professionalism. We hope to return to this unit. Mahalo!
Great views on the balcony to watch whales and sea turtles. Convenient location to beach walk and beaches to snorkel. Within walking distance to grocery store and restaurants. Had all the amenities you need and more. We loved our stay!

Such an amazing view!
My husband and I booked this location based on the view, and boy, were we glad. This is the perfect location for two to relax, enjoy the view and the sound of the ocean with turtles swimming below, have quiet meals on the balcony, or take quick strolls to local restaurants. The bed is very comfortable. The condo has everything you need, especially in the kitchen. We love to cook together, and although the kitchen is a little tight, it definitely works. The pool area is excellent, and we especially appreciated the chaise lounges on the grass area. Parking was a breeze, and we definitely appreciated the in-condo washer and dryer. There are also grills that are very easy to access. We would absolutely book this location again.
Thank you to the management for being so responsive to our few questions. Can't say enough about how fabulous this location is.
This unit is exactly as described but the view is even better than depicted. We sat on the balcony and watched turtles come in each morning and every evening we had the most amazing sunset views. Highly recommend this property!

Aloha, Sandy! We're glad to hear Mahana 1003 lived up to its description and even exceeded expectations with its beautiful view. We're happy you could enjoy watching turtles and sunsets from the balcony. Thank you for your recommendations & we hope to host you again soon! 🌺
We thoroughly enjoyed the studio. Clean, well stocked and to die for view. Felt like we were over the ocean. The sound of waves was blissful to fall asleep to and the deck an awesome spot to enjoy first cup of coffee while looking out for whales nearby.
This condo was perfect. It was fully outfitted with everything we needed for our stay, from delicious Hawaiian coffee to snorkel gear and beach chairs. We saw sea turtles, dolphins, and whales from the lanai. The onsite staff was friendly and welcoming, and the host was quick to respond and so helpful. We were sad to leave, but hope to return soon!
First i want to start with what an amazing view from the room.Everything that you need this room had from snorkling gear,binoculars,beach chairs to the cleaning supplies etc. excellent job! my wife and i had an awesome time see u soon!
The place is exactly as pictured. It’s small but the view makes up for it. It was clean, kitchen fully stocked and bed was comfy. The folks at the front desk weren’t overly friendly or helpful but we would rent this unit again!

Aloha, Russ! Sounds like the Mahana 1003 was the perfect location for you to celebrate your 40th wedding anniversary. We are so happy you got to see the gorgeous wildlife and rainbows that make Maui so special 🌺 We look forward to hosting you again!
We loved this VRBO and the location of it. The view right above the ocean was amazing. We spotted turtles, rainbows, stars, and surfers right from the balcony. It was very quiet and peaceful. There’s a hot tub and pool, as well as great access to the beach. We didn’t have any complaints about this VRBO whatsoever. So, if you’re looking for a peaceful getaway, this place is perfect!
