About this property

Great Location- Quiet Beach, Small Complex, Walk to Bars & Restaurants

Aloha and welcome to the Hale Kai Uli!
What exactly is the Hale Kai Uli? In the Hawaiian language hale means house, kai is the ocean and uli means blue. The House of the Deep Blue Sea.

The Hale Kai Uli is adjacent to a quiet stretch of sandy beach in sunny Kihei, Maui… just 500 feet from lanai to toes-in-the-ocean! Our 2 bedroom/1 bath condo can sleep 4 guests. We renovated and brought in all new furniture in Oct 2016. In Nov 2021 we upgraded the windows and installed a split AC unit so there is now individually controlled AC units in the living room and each bedroom.

Bedroom 1 offers a plush queen-sized gel-infused memory foam mattress and luxuriously soft sheets. Windows facing both east & west provide great cross-ventilation and a large wall-mounted oscillating fan will keep you cool as you sleep. There is extra counterspace with a large mirror for dressing and easy-to-access outlets including USB ports to charge your phones.

Bedroom 2 offers 2 twin-sized memory foam beds, a large dresser and closet space. A 32” SMART TV is set up with a BlueRay DVD player. Cable is not available on this TV but it is connected to the wi-fi so you can use your preferred streaming accounts. Cable is available on the living room TV which is also set up for you to access your streaming accounts.

In the bathroom you’ll find plenty of storage space and hooks for wet towels or toiletry bags. A hotel-style towel rack installed in the shower is the perfect place to drip dry wet swim suits. A hairdryer is provided.

Our kitchen comes fully equipped with stainless appliances and all the cookware, gadgets and serving dishes you would need to make a quick breakfast or a full dinner. You can also take advantage of two gas grills and full outdoor kitchen at the pavilion area near the pool.

You’ll find a dining table inside for those rare rainy nights but Hawaii living is all about being outdoors so we’ve provided a patio set large enough to accommodate 4 adults for a full dinner. A retractable shade will keep the lanai cool in the afternoon. And once the sun fades beyond the horizon, flip on the twinkle lights, pour a glass of wine, sink into the comfortable chairs and relax well into the night.

Tile flooring throughout helps keep the unit cool and the east & west facing windows allow you to take advantage of the breezes when the trade winds are blowing. There are multiple fans throughout the unit to keep you cool but when the heat or humidity kicks up you'll rest comfortably with our new split AC units.

Kihei Garden Estates is a lush property. Enjoy swaying palms, fragrant plumeria and exotic tropical flowers throughout. A huge mango tree provides fresh fruit in season. From your lanai, you can watch geckos and iguanas and listen to the song of the Hawaiian Mynah Birds. While you're savoring your first cup of coffee you may catch a glimpse of the stealthy mongoose as he makes his early morning rounds. A combination of permanent residents and vacation rentals creates a quiet, relaxing atmosphere you won’t find at larger resort complexes. You’ll always find an open chaise at the pool and a spot in the hot tub. There is a shared laundry room for each building ($2.50 to wash/dry) and we have provided a laundry bag for guest use.

We’ve supplied 4 Tommy Bahama “backpack” beach chairs with cooler pouches, a soft-sided Coleman cooler, 2 boogie boards, pool noodles, a beach ball and an assortment of pails, shovels and molds so your family can build an epic sand castle.

And finally, for all the techies that stay with us…you’ll appreciate our unlimited high-speed wifi and the numerous USB charging ports throughout the condo.

Beautiful and Serene Kihei Escape

We loved our stay in the Kihei garden estates. Lush tropical vibes, lovely property with every amenity needed. We enjoyed the pool, the fresh mangos that fell from the trees, the gorgeous beach sunsets a 30 second walk away and the beach necessities that came with the condo were a big help! Perfect spot and place for our family of four and we cannot wait to visit again.

this was a great little VRBO - we loved having our little space midway through our Hawaii trip - we were very busy in Maui so didn't utilize the complex much but enjoyed having access to a washer and dryer and being able to spread out a bit

Return Stay

Return stay at this lovely condo. We enjoyed it so much the first time, we book our stay here for our second trip without hesitation. The condo is perfect for 3-4 people. The owners communicate very well and the staff is so helpful and friendly. Its in a safe area with everything you need within walking distance. We utilized the beach chairs, pool, hot tub and even the laundry facility. Would definitely return and stay here again and again.

Hawaiian Oasis

We had a wonderful stay in the Kihei Garden Estates! The property was perfect for our family - first floor with beautiful lawn and tropical plants right outside our lanai. Every morning our son loves running through the grass looking for fallen mangoes, geckos, and birds while we looked on enjoying our coffee from the cute coffee shop just a short walk from the condo. Every evening we took the 500ft walk to watch the sunsets! The location was absolutely perfect-easy beach access and nearby stores and restaurants. The property itself was clean and well stocked with kitchen and beach supplies. The bedroom spaces were on the smaller side but super well organized so we were able to store all our gear in the closets to keep the rooms feeling as spacious as they could. We try to visit one of the islands every year to escape the Alaskan cold and my husband and I both agreed that we could see this property being our annual family spot as our boys grow up! Thank you for a wonderful stay and we hope to be back in the future!

This is a clean, well stocked small condo in Kihei with easy access to stores and restaurants.I prefer to stay in properties with direct access to good beaches, and there was quite a bit of homeless activity around the complex, which may be because there’s a church that provides laundry service for them next-door. So if you’re hoping for a Maui resort vibe, this may not be for you. But, otherwise, it was convenient to many things, and we were comfortable and happy with the cooking gear in the kitchen.

The condo was very clean and the lanai had a cover that made the afternoon sun tolerable. There were movies, puzzles, books and beach equipment. I had questions about the TV and the manager called me right away to help me resolve the issue.The hot tub was very nice however some nights no one turned the heater on so it was not usable.
We went to Fred's for breakfast and then walked on Kamaole beach.

Oceanside getaway

We had a wonderful time staying at this condo in Kihei. It is within walking distance of everything you need: beach, grocery, restaurants, and Tamura's for the best poke. The condo had all the amenities and more, which was great for our family of four. There was a huge mango tree right next to this condo and the caretaker was there and gave us mangos that had fallen off the tree. It was delicious! It was great to have all their beach gear organized and ready for a day of fun. Staci was a wonderful and flexible host. She was very communicative and when we needed to extend our checkout due to a late travel day, she rearranged cleaning to help us out. We were so grateful and cannot thank them enough. We would definitely stay here again!

Exactly what we needed.This was a perfect home base for exploring such a wonderful island. The kitchen and closet were stocked with everything we needed, which saved us money on renting gear and eating out. It felt more like a home than a resort-style place. If you're looking for a family-friendly spot near a beautiful, uncrowded beach, this is the place to stay.
