About this property

Please support the Maui economy and the people here by continuing to visit this beautiful island. We are in Kahana, seven miles north of the town of Lahaina. Our property was not affected in any way by the Aug. 8, 2023, wildfires in Lahaina town. Mahalo.

Kahana Reef is the hidden gem of Maui. A place where you can enjoy the best views, central location and a quiet, peaceful and relaxing experience at a price you can afford. This unit has just been remodeled and is located in the prized middle building, with nothing but ocean and the islands of Molokai and Lanai out front -- except for the whales and turtles you'll see from your lanai.

The condo features a king-size bed in the bedroom with memory foam; queen sleeper in the LR; stainless appliances, a refrigerator with icemaker, new cabinets and granite countertops in the kitchen; all new fixtures in the bathroom; new slate for the lanai; new lighting fixtures; free wi-fi; flat-screen TVs in the LR and BR; and easy access to the communal pool and adjacent beaches.

You're 10 minutes from dining, shopping, golf and world-class beaches in Kaanapali; 5 minutes from one of the world's best beaches, Napili Bay; 15 minutes from the unique town and historic whaling village of Lahaina. Fishing, whale watching, surfing, stand-up paddling, kayaking and snorkeling are all close by.

There are five world class golf courses within a couple of miles, including the Plantation Course at Kapalua, the home of the Hyundai Championship. The Kapalua Tennis Gardens also are nearby and available for play.

We have gas outdoor grills for guests; free parking; a laundromat steps away; and convenient shopping and restaurants within walking distance.

We supply the towels, dishes, utensils and the view. All you need to bring is your swimsuits, sunscreen, flip flops and sense of adventure. Then sit back, take in the view, soak up the aloha and enjoy the sunsets. It just doesn't get any better.

Absolutely wonderful

Everything about our stay was perfect. The location cannot be beat and the property itself is wonderful. We saw sea turtles every afternoon and enjoyed the near private beach adjacent to the building. The condo is clean, well maintained and stocked, the check in/out procedure easy, and the owners are a pleasure to deal with. Thanks again for a wonderful stay and we hope to be back very soon!

Perfect

The view cannot be beat. Location is excellent, far enough away from the crowds of Kaanapali but close enough to have easy access to everything. Thoughtful touches like power bars and small kitchen appliances, well stocked. Nice accessible beach next door with turtles and monk seals coming up on the beach for a siesta. Lots of whale activity right out your patio door. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Great view

We visited in February and loved it. Ground floor unit makes easy access to beach/pool. Watched the whales during the day and walked out to watch the turtles come in at dusk. Would absolutely stay again, perfect location and the hosts were great to deal with. Highly recommend

Waterfront condo!

I could not begin to express how much we enjoyed this condo. Spectacular ocean views. The lanai was great with a table for four. Sea turtles and whales everywhere. Kitchen was fully stocked with all our needs met. Mini air fryer was a hit. Bed in master was very comfortable. Enough towels for the week we stayed. Walking distance to a market and a few restaurants! We really had the best time. I love cooking and spotting for whales and turtles in the waves. It would have been great to have an EV charger on the property. Overall 5 out of 5 stars.

About the host

Hosted by Don and Yolanda Miller

We live in the Monterey Bay region of California -- another ocean paradise. We've been coming to Hawaii for more than 30 years.

Why they chose this property

We've been staying at Kahana Reef since 1998. Our kids pretty much spent their summers here. Relatives own another unit here. We waited for a unit in the middle building, ground floor to become available and when it did, we didn't hesitate. Then we spent months remodeling and refurnishing.

What makes this property unique

Let us count the ways we love Kahana Reef: the best ocean views in the world; the color of the water; the transcendent sunsets; the lawn out front; the turtles along the sea wall; the whales breaching in the winter; the quiet; fun times in the pool; morning coffee on the lanai; the feeling that this truly is what Hawaii should be like.
