This property is located in a beautiful area, the views from the balcony are gorgeous. The host was kind and responsive but the inside of the condo needs so much work. Every blanket and sheet we found were dirty/stained. The living room curtain rod is totally rusted out, trash cans dirty and moldy. Bathrooms were dirty, carpets and walls stained. We checked in at 3pm on a Tuesday and left by 7:30am the next day because of the cleanliness of the place. The host did compensate us some, but we were only there less than 24 hours. She did offer us another condo to stay in as well, but we chose to leave and book an entirely different place. I think this condo could be incredible with a deep clean, new bedding. Fresh paint and carpet.

We checked in at 3pm on a Tuesday and left by 7:30am the next day because of the cleanliness of the place. The host did refund us 1100 but I felt that wasn’t even close to the 2600 we paid for the week for being there less than 24 hours.

We love this little corner of Maalaea and have stayed in several different complexes over the years, but this particular unit is perfect for our family of three. So much so that this was our second booking. Central location on the island with just enough to do within walking distance. Short-ish drive to Kihei for everything else.
Unit is clean, comfortable and simple. I like the open kitchen-that’s what sold me in the first place. While I can’t speak for other times of the year, in late Oct you can watch sea turtles in the water below from the lanai. Or go down and watch up close!
We stayed in July of 2024. The property was very clean, well kept and the views were amazing! The property is close to a few restaurants, not too far from a Kaipukaihina Beach with an abundance of shops and restaurants. Also close to the airport and the Highway to Hana as well as a short drive north to West Maui.
The only thing you must be aware of is the parking. The onsite parking is that it’s underground and the clearance is only 6 feet. We were able to get our rental SUV in, but it was close.
Bottom line is you can’t go wrong by staying here!
We loved this condo and the view is spectacular. We loved watching the whales and watching the turtles from our deck. This is the 2nd time at there and love the view. The condo is very well maintained and Barb was very friendly. We will be back again.
The condo is on the 4th floor and is easily accessible via an elevator. Your parking spot is assigned for ease of parking each day. The other tenants that I came in contact with were kind and helpful. The harbor and lots of cruise offerings is within walking distance. The condo is in a lovely, well maintained complex. The unit is well appointed with enough room for 5. We enjoyed the lanai immensely. A great family or couples stay! Thank you Barbara
We love this area as it is a central location to access the entire island. The condo was spacious and the lanai was large with a beautiful view of the ocean. Bonus was having A/C in all of the rooms along with ceiling fans. Plenty of closet space with hangers and also large dressers to store your clothes. Beach chairs, umbrellas, 2 boogie boards and a large cooler are provided. Wish they had a smaller cooler and a beach bag. (Minor details) The pool was nice and large and having bathrooms and a shower right there was so convenient. Two bbq’s on the property which overlook the ocean made bbq’ing that much more enjoyable! The grounds are very well maintained and our beautiful. Overall we enjoyed our stay and felt like we were at home. Definitely will be back!
The apartment was really VERY nice. The view of the ocean spectacular. It was about a 20 min drive to either of the towns that had restaurants and activities (e.g. surfing). The only down side was the poor condition of the MBR mattress. We would DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THIS UNIT AND WOULD COME AGAIN>
Our family chose this location to be close to the water and it was wonderful! On our way to Maui the flight was delayed and Barbara was very responsive and gracious about our late arrival. We really like this area and plan to return!
Beautiful view! Great location for us. Beach supplies were great to have. Clean and comfortable for our group of 4. Only suggestion that would of made our stay perfect would be TV's in the bedrooms. Helps us fall asleep. Mahalo for the a wonderful stay!
We arrived to a clean and comfy condo. The scenery was amazing. We watched whales on the lanai everyday! Condo is beautiful and well stocked with everything for the beach! Had plenty of chairs, coolers, towels, and even sand toys for the kids. Condo was a welcome rest after a long day of travel! Quiet and peaceful place to stay, short drive to everything you need but far enough from the hustle and bustle of Kihei. We will definitely be back!
Property is exactly as advertised. We stayed here with 4 adults and 2 children in January, 2020. Barbara was very easy to work with in the booking process. The location of this condo is great. Maalaea is very convenient as it is basically halfway along the coast. It is walking distance to the harbor for whale watching, etc. Not a lot of restaurants close by, but Beach Bums is very close and has a great breakfast. You are only 15 minutes or so from the airport, and thus, CostCo, Wal-Mart-etc.
Condo is nice. A little dated, but clean. Beds are memory foam, which we loved. Air conditioning works great. Really close to the ocean. It was nice hearing waves crash from the living room. Balcony has a spectacular view! We enjoyed sipping coffee and watching the whales in the harbor.
Pool area is pretty basic and water is cold, but again very close to the ocean so nice to sit out there.
Condo was clean. Full kitchen, but a little sparse in terms of cookware, and basically there are no spices or supplies besides salt and pepper.
Overall, we really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely consider staying here again.

Great views and a nice clean and calm place to stay
Well equipped apartment with a nice size balcony with sweeping views. Conveniently located and very calm neighborhood.
I love staying at Barbara's places. I know that I will find a super clean and comfortable place with the special little touches that just make traveling easier! This place was very spacious and the kitchen and patio were the best. There were comfortable and large bedrooms that both had their own bathroom. I would definitely stay here again!

Relaxation in Paradise
We had a wonderful time in Maui. The scenery here is amazing. The condo is located on a quiet, dead end street, walking distance to the harbor, restaurants and aquarium. The online pictures of the condo are true to what you get. We appreciate the peace and quiet here. I recommend a condo stay over a hotel stay.

Perfect Location
This place has everything one needs. Beautiful ocean view from the lanai, we saw turtles everyday. Plenty of room, there were 4 adults staying 10 days. Plus the location was ideal for our Maui adventures.
This Ma’alaea condo was the perfect home away from home. Chairs, umbrella, boogie boards, plenty of towels - we had everything available to us for fun in the sun. Appreciated quiet nights hearing the sound of the ocean waves, not the sounds of traffic or fellow tourists.
This condo is easy to recommend. Plus Barbara was wonderful to work with.

Very nice condo, the view is great from the lanai.
The condo is very nice. It sleeps 6, but it’s not set up for 6 people. There is only a small table with 4 chairs, and only 2 chairs on the lanai. There is only 2 beach chairs to use, and not enough beach towels for 6 either. It’s very clean, other than someone has sprayed something that has splattered the ceiling fan area in the kitchen. It has lots of dishes and cutlery. The main bathroom toilet runs unless you jiggle the handle to make sure it plugs properly. The a/c is covered by the couch so it doesn’t really cool much if the unit, and there is only 1 portable fan. After staying, we felt it was overpriced, for the amenities that were missing. It truly just accommodates 2 properly, other than sleeping.

This place was perfect for the four of us.
The condo was great and we especially loved the wonderful view from the lanai--loved watching the turtles and humpback whales entertain us in the harbor.
