About this property

Rent a Beachfront Studio in Paradise!

This charming and spacious studio offers your own quiet slice of paradise. Please note that this is a studio and not a one bedroom unit. Take a relaxing stroll across the street to watch the sunset at Kamaole Beach Park II, then return to unwind on your beautifully landscaped, private ground-floor lanai as Hawaiian doves greet the morning. Grill your dinner at the community barbecues, cool off in one of the two pools, or enjoy a match on the on-site tennis court. Wonderful restaurants and shops are all just a short walk away.

Kihei Akahi is a beautifully maintained condominium community, and our unit comfortably accommodates up to three guests. Decorated in a warm Hawaiian style, it brings the spirit of the islands indoors. Kihei is known for its ideal weather—gentle tropical breezes, occasional light showers, and the sweet aroma of blooming flowers. You’ll also enjoy a fantastic, newly updated kitchen.

Once you’ve stayed here, you’ll want to return again and again. We hope you’ll share our little piece of paradise with friends and family—and that we’ll have the pleasure of welcoming you back often.

Good location near beach and with beach chairs and snorkel/ masks. Good nearby choices for eating out, coffee and best cinnamon buns on island. It was snug for a family of four but we expected that. Fabulous value and location sums it up.

Place smells like mold the moment you open the front door. The description lies, not 2 bathroom sinks, not clean, mold in the bathroom, dirt buildup all over the door, mold on the bath mat all over, toilet had previous person dirtiness (without sick details), the pictures the host has posted are all old, not much is the same in the rental that's in the studio. The kitchen has ant traps on the counter, the stove wouldn't light so we weren't able to cook, dishes were dirty in the cabinets, along with dirty silverware. Road construction had the road closed and was loud all day.

Kitchen worked out great and so did laundry. The place was totally stocked with everything you need for the beach. This was very helpful! The place needs some updates. The caulking to fill in large holes around the bathroom sink was not very effective or clean. The rust in the tub also needed some updates.
Covering for the holes and duck tape.
Under the toothbrush holder.

Great location, ground floor, directly across from tennis courts and pool. The unit was as advertised and very well priced. The unit is dated but the price more than made up for that. The washer and dryer is brand new and the bed was very comfortable. We didn't use the kitchen to cook but everything was there is you wanted to. I hope to stay again in the future.

Such a cute little place we were able to walk down to the beach walk to some places to eat. It had towels and everything we needed for a fun beach day. The washer and dryer really helped us stay organized because we were able to clean stuff as we went. Perfect amount of space for two people highly recommend doing your breakfast on the cute little patio.

About the host

Hosted by Harold Gray

Host profile image
Aloha! We love waking up to the sound of tropical birds singing and feeling the gentle ocean breeze through the windows. In the evening, we watch the sunset from “our” beach with a glass of wine and keep an eye out for “Coconut Dog” and his owner, who stroll the beach each night.

Relaxing is what we do best here—and we think you will too. Leave your worries behind, breathe in the island air, and say goodbye to those knots in your neck!

Why they chose this property

Fantastic location, Close to the beach, beautiful grounds, quiet, and wonderful office staff

What makes this property unique

What makes our property special is its peaceful, cozy atmosphere and fantastic location. The beach is just a few minutes’ walk away, making it easy to enjoy the ocean, beautiful sunsets, and the relaxed island lifestyle whenever you like.

Our property is surrounded by beautiful tropical grounds and offers a quiet place to unwind after a day of exploring Maui. We love opening the windows to enjoy the fresh ocean breeze and the sounds of tropical birds. It’s the perfect place to slow down, relax, and feel at home while enjoying everything Kihei has to offer.
