Amazing stay!

The condo was quite comfortable and very nicely done! We were traveling with our two adult daughters, and the condo had everything that we needed and then some! The views were absolutely stunning! Sarah was a great host! We had many questions, and she was always prompt and informative! Her recommendations were spot on, which we greatly appreciated, due to the fact that it was our first trip to Maui! Don’t hesitate on booking this property! We are confident that it will not disappoint!

We were so pleased to have found this condo. The listing looked wonderful but you never know if the "real thing" is going to be as good as the pictures. The pictures don't do the condo justice. Great location, fantastic view, comfortable beds, nice shower. We'll definitely go back! I give this condo 10 stars out of 10!

This property exceeded our expectations (which were already high based on the pictures and description). Sarah was responsive to any communication and great to work with. The condo was clean and comfortable, with every amenity that we wanted. Good beaches were an easy walk away and whale watching from the living room or lanai was phenomenal. We would definitely stay here again.

We are official whale watchers….

We left for Maui with a list of things to do. This property is so beyond, a front row seat to whales. Lots of whales, lots and lots of whales. We watched through binoculars in the room then from the beach then had to find a boat to get us closer. The host had games so we played games and still watched whales. Beautiful, every amenity you need plus a ton more. Comfortable rooms, unlimited kitchen access. Simply perfect.

Perfect and Peaceful

Our family group of three had a great experience at this property.We spent hours watching whales, sea turtles, monk seal and surfers while enjoying morning coffee or an afternoon refresher on the well protected (from wind and afternoon sun) deck.We were delighted to discover the beach boardwalk started from the parking area of the property, allowing us access to the shops and restaurants all the way to Whaler’s Village.We were also very pleased with the tennis/pickle ball court which was very lightly used and easy to sign up for, offering great shade all morning. The grounds were well kept and there was always a set of lounging chairs by the pool or in the pleasant grass area near the ocean, a perk for staying at this property vs one of the larger resorts nearby.We found all that we needed in the unit, from games to yoga mats and beach chairs. The beds were comfortable and the space was very clean.We did need to figure out a bit of a trick to opening the door (seems a slow turn of the handle was best). Communication with Sarah (the owner) was easy and always pleasant.We had a great week! Thank you!

Maui condo with a view

This condo is super clean and stylish. Windows from floor to ceiling in living room. Stunning view of the sunset, rainbows, beach and water right below. Amenities include a community large pool and jacuzzi. Air conditioning to keep it cool in the Summer heat. Location north of the busiest area though lovely walk along the beach to get to Black Rock. Plenty of space to spread out with our 2 children. Washer and Dryer helpful to clean our beach clothes. Close to grocery store. Had our family pics taken on the beach... a service conveniently offered by the building. Owner super easy to communicate with and offered many suggestions.

Amazing views!

Sarah’s condo was beautiful with amazing views and amenities. The location is absolutely gorgeous. It is well stocked with all the “extra” essentials you could ever imagine (beach chairs, umbrellas, coolers, beach towels, spices) and typically do not find in other rental properties. Sarah was great all throughout the process. The only issue we had, and I hesitate to even mention, but the unit had not been thoroughly cleaned and there appeared to be a cockroach problem as we saw them everyday. We bought traps and sprayed and the HOA sprayed while we were there but the roaches persisted. Sarah was great throughout though which helped a lot.

About the host

Hosted by Sarah Feeley

Host profile image
Hi, I am your host Sarah and reside in Southern California with my husband and 3 children. We are happy to share our beautiful condo located on the west side of Maui situated on Kaanapali Beach.

This family owned property is something we love to share and have hosted many guests over the last 9 years. After traveling to Maui many times over the years, we finally decided to purchase our own home away from home and share it will so many people along the way. I look forward to working with each guest and making sure they have a wonderful Hawaiian vacation.

Why they chose this property

The Mahana at Kaanapali is situated closer to the ocean than any resort in Maui. As frequent Hawaii visitors, we understand exactly what a visitor expects and desires when staying in Maui.

What makes this property unique

Our unit offers the quintessential view of Hawaiian landscape. A ground unit may offer direct access from patio to beach, but limits itself to the beautiful surrounding views. A top floor unit offers a panorama view of the ocean but without views of the palm trees, beach and waves. Our home offers the most desirable blend of palm trees, beach, waves and surrounding island views from living room, bedroom and lanai. Step in to our 8th floor unit, walk in and you'll be nothing short of amazed!
