Island Surf with Ocean View - Across from popular Surf spot, Beach, and Shops

E komo mai! This is the Hawaiian way of saying all are welcome.

Mahalo (thank you) for taking a moment to view my home in beautiful Kihei, Maui. This 4th floor condo is located in the most convenient location on Maui. From the moment you walk in the door it is impossible to ignore the sweeping magnificent views from the private lanai (patio or balcony). You can see the popular Kamaole Beach Park featuring picnic areas, grassy lawns, beach, volleyball, baseball, soccer, and basket ball courts. It also has a wonderful beach walk. To the left you will be able to watch one of South Maui's most popular surf spots, Cove Park. It is the perfect place to learn to surf. There are two places to rent boards and take lessons. One is located on the first floor of this building. The other is located just across the street. If you are more of a diver or interested in other ocean activities like whale watching or snorkel adventures then I have you covered here as well. Just visit Maui Dreams Dive shop, also on the first floor. If you get hungry there are three restaurants located on the property. Joy's Place is a wonderful sandwich shop offering excellent coffee and healthy sandwiches. Surfside Cafe is a new restaurant offering Local, American and Cuban cuisine and serves breakfast and lunch all day. Your Bliss has Maui inspired gourmet frozen delights as well as some great food options.

Amazing stay
We had an amazing 10 day stay. The condo is spacious and nicely decorated. Located in a perfect spot close to restaurants and shopping you can walk to. They provide so much for you. I highly recommend you look in the outdoor storage box before you go shopping for umbrellas and snorkel gear. We really enjoyed our stay. The views were outstanding. Only issue we had was the dryer wasn’t working well. But it was a minor issue.

Nice place with Great Location!
Location was perfect! Right across from the park/small beach & Ocean. Condo is on the 4th floor so you can sit on the balcony and watch whales jumping & the sunset. Lots of action - Walk to restaurants and shopping. Ohana Seafood Bar & Grill and Paia Fish Market are both excellent and just a short walk. Lots of food trucks right behind in the South Maui Gardens. The condo is across the street from the ocean so there is quite a bit of traffic but it didn't seem to bother us. Condo was small but nice. Perfect for 2 people. Bed was a little more firm but the linens were nice. No kind of bath soap provided so bring your own. Nicer cookware and utensils then I've ever had in a vrbo. Appreciated that! Nice comfortable furniture & well kept place. Beach chairs, umbrella and beach toys were also there to use. Had a great time! We would stay here again!

Vacation in paradise
We didn't want to stay at the big resorts and opted for a VRBO. This unit checked all the boxes and exceeded our expectations! Ocean view, AC, walking distance from restaurants, shopping and grocery store. The condo had everthing. Filtered water and ice from the fridge in the kitchen, pots and pans (so we didnt need to go out for breakfast and happy hour each day), beach towels, chairs, umbrella and blanket. We rented boogie boards at the store across the street (couldn't convince my son to take a surfing lesson). Great beginner surfing right across the street from the condo. We only had to drive 30 minutes to do our luau and snorkeling trip in Lahina. Great beaches near by for snorkeling off the beach. Tons of shopping, food trucks and restaurants right outside your door. LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! Totally recommend this condo!! Owner was very responsive from when we booked it 4 months in advance up to our departure.

We had a great stay at this location. Shawn was easy to communicate with and gave great suggestions for things to do. The condo was clean, had everything we needed and had a great ocean view! There were some great spots in walking distance of the building. It was also easy to get to other spots on the island from Kihei.

Perfect getaway spot!
Great condo in a perfect location! Shawn was so helpful with recommendations for place to go. Condo is clean and has everything you need! (The blender was used a lot 😜). We watched the sunrise on one balcony and the sunsets on the lanai ☀️. The beach park across the way was awesome— always a volleyball game going on. The “BARmedua triangle “ nearby was so much fun. It has like 7 or so so bar/restaurants. Highly recommend!

This was our second time visiting Kihei, and it was such an amazing stay. The location was PERFECT, right across from the water and the park! We were able to spot whales from the lanai - which was pretty spectacular. Shawn's unit was great, and suited well for our family of three. It was clean, quiet and very homey. The condo is located close to shopping, restaurants and many activities. We would happily enjoy returning to stay in Shawn's condo in the future!

Cute place with a view
We enjoyed our stay immensely. Owner was responsive when we couldn't unlock the door and had us in within minutes. Kitchen is fully stocked, and we found everything we needed during our stay There were beach towels, and beach toys, available. Only one beach chair, but that wasn't a problem for us. Walkable area with food, playground, beaches and shave ice places super close. Parking lot process was easy, and never too full. Right across the street from Maui wave riders if you plan to take surfing lessons. The bed was a bit soft for my liking, but nothing really to complain about.

Whales from the lanai
Other than an issue at check in, our stay was fabulous! Watching whales from lanai, people watching, amazing food within walking distance. We loved the feral chickens! The bed was very comfortable, plenty of pillows to suit everyone! My parents loved the coffee maker! I think they just bought the exact same one! Thank you, Shawn…

Great stay
One of the best equipped rental I have stayed in. Beach umbrella, chairs, towels and even toys made it very comfortable for us to spend time at many beaches in kihei area. Basic shopping can be done at the grab and go shop in the same building, whereas foodland store is few mins walk for full grocery. We also enjoyed the food trucks and other cafes/restaurants that are right behind this building. Host maintained transparent and clear communication all the time. We'll definitely stay at the same place again in future.

Maui Magic
This place is a gem. I was on the island to attend a week-long retreat in Wailea and chose not to stay at the resort and not to rent a car. Both could have turned out to be bad choices, but thanks to the convenient location of this property, it turned out to be the perfect way to do things. Everything my roommate and I needed was within walking distance; shops, restaurants, cafes, beaches, park, music ,grocery store and bus line. The local bus runs right past the condo and cost two dollars, or one dollar for seniors. Every morning I sat on the balcony with a cup of coffee watching the town wake up and it felt like " Sesame Street Hawaiian Style" By the end of the week I recognized some of the locals . The views were beautiful, the people were happy. Every day I walked across the street and swam, and a couple of those days was joined by sea turtles. Shawn, the host was not only helpful, but I got the feeling that he really wanted us to have a good time while we were staying at his place. We did. Mahalo
