Gorgeous Oceanfront Condo in South Maui * Royal Mauian *

Fully remodeled and updated, our home is ideally suited for a romantic getaway, celebrating a special life milestone, those looking for a little laid-back downtime, and anyone wanting to enjoy Maui to its fullest potential. Our 1 bedroom 1 bath oceanfront condo is in the Royal Mauian, a South Maui condominium complex nestled on a promontory between two of South Maui's finest beaches, Kamaole I and Kamaole II. With an up-close and personal front-row view of the beautiful Pacific Ocean, we offer luxurious accommodations as well as beautiful Maui sunsets, turtle and seasonal whale watching, all from your private lanai. Our unit is less than 50 feet from the Pacific Ocean and steps away from two post-card beaches for all your desired activities: sunbathing, ocean swimming & snorkeling, SUP, yoga, beach running and walking down to Wailea on the beach and ocean front paths.

Royal Mauian 308 is the perfect beachfront vacation getaway for couples, whether traveling together or as part of a wider family or friend group. We also have additional contacts on the island if you are looking to book for more than 2 people, either at the Royal Mauian or our other upscale property at the Maui Kamaole (VRBO #215146), a 15-minute walk away.

Our property is managed directly by the Faris family and has been in our family for over 40 years. To you, our guest, we provide extensive on-island support, via our on-island contacts, telephone, text, and email.

Honeymoon!
Kevin is an incredible host! He messaged us well before our trip to check in with us, gave us great recommendations for food, and gave us a late check out based on our late flight home. The condo itself is very nice. Kevin has it stocked with anything and everything you might need included spices for cooking. You have a perfect view of the sunset each night and can even see turtles swimming near the shore. You are in a perfect location with places to eat and shop right across the street while the beaches are right next door. We had an amazing trip and highly recommend staying here!

This one bedroom condo had everything we needed to relax and immerse ourselves in wonderful Maui. The bed was comfortable and the lanai was a perfect place to enjoy the view of the beach. The host communicated instructions clearly and was attentive to our needs. We hope to book again!

Beautiful condo, perfect location, wonderful host
This condo has everything you could possibly need for the perfect Maui vacation. It's beautiful and comfortable and the ocean/ beach views are gorgeous. The host is very attentive and responsive and has equipped the condo with everything you will need to feel at home and have a relaxing Maui vacation. The location is perfect for an easy walk down to the beach to swim and snorkel with the sea turtles and for sitting on the lanai and enjoying the sunset and watching the sea turtles as they swim by. There are also great shops and restaurants across the street. The only downside is that our 1 week of vacation flew by too quickly and we had to go home. We can't wait to come back and (hopefully) stay longer!

Perfect Oceanfront Location
Just returned from our 6 week stay at this gorgeous condo. Directly on the ocean, amazing views of the ocean and Kam 1 Beach. Spacious balcony to dine and watch the whales. Central location, short walk to shops and restaurants. Can’t imagine staying anywhere else in Kihei. Excellent communication with the host, seamless check in and check out procedures. We look forward to visiting again.

Lovely stay, highly recommend
We really enjoyed our stay here. The condo itself was very nice, and, as many have mentioned previously, the gracious and welcoming hospitality of Kevin contributed greatly to our enjoyable stay. The reservation process was easy, and information and instructions were excellent. The condo is extremely well-located. We could walk out the building door to the beach a few steps away, or, in the other direction, along a walking path that stretched all the way to Wailea. It has been updated, yesterday from all appearances, as everything appeared fresh and new. The kitchen was VERY well furnished, and we greatly appreciated the olive and other cooking oils, herbs and spices, and salad dressings and condiments. Very much appreciated, too, were the grocery shopping bags. Make sure you look in all the cabinets--we found some bags immediately, but on the last day we opened a cabinet we had not looked in and we found more. Honestly, there was nothing we needed that was not there, including that the host supplies a beach umbrella, 2 boogie boards, 2 nice lawn chairs, 2 noodles, and a lovely lanai for sunsets. Cleanliness and comfort were excellent. Because of the way the building is shaped we did hear a little street noise from the bedroom and we could hear people walking by, but overall noise was not a problem. In sum, this was really a great place to stay and we enjoyed our time there very much.

Wonderful vacation getaway!
This place will not disappoint! It really felt like a home away from home and Kevin really is a superhost. Kevin was incredibly kind , welcoming and responsive throughout our entire stay for anything we needed or questions we had. We watched the turtles and listened to the ocean every morning while we drank our coffee - what a treat! Beautiful sunsets from the lanai as well! The lawn and beach around would fill with people but we could just grab a mimosa and watch right from our own spot. The location was also fantastic as you can walk across the street for almost anything you might need (restaurants, grocery store, alcoholic beverages, clothes and souvenirs, bakery, etc). But if you’re up for exploring further it’s very central to almost anything. While it’s fun to explore other beaches, the beaches on either side of the property were great and we typically just took our towels, sunscreen and some beverages to Kamaole 2 and had a wonderful time. Would definitely come back, and may even do so next year!

First time in Maui!
This place is outstanding and the property is managed to perfection. Kevin has every detail thought out, everything is up to date, and he's very easy to communicate with. A perfect place for two, to either relax at the property or explore the island. Bed is super comfy, the condo is quiet, parking is easy, and the view is spectacular. Unless you want a resort experience or want to stay on another part of the island, this is a perfect option.

Best Location and View in South Maui!!
My husband and I have stayed at many condos in Maui and this unit was one of the cleanest, most well stocked unit we have stayed in in regards to the kitchen, bath, bedroom, and beach chairs/umbrella/toys. Definitely the best view in Kihei on the water. Perfect location walking distance to beaches, restaurants, shave ice, and shops. Short drive to the Kihei Food Oasis at the south Maui gardens which we went to almost every day. Our umbrella snapped and the property manager had a new one for us the next day. One minor complaint is that I wish there was a full length mirror somewhere. The only mirror inside is the bathroom mirror and then there is one on the balcony. We got dressed for a nice dinner and I wished I could see my full outfit! This is a more personal preference but I would recommend getting a foam pad for the mattress as it was the hardest mattress I’ve ever laid on, to the point we didn’t sleep well and were very sore in the morning.

Our new favorite place to stay in Maui
We have visited Maui often, to see our daughter who lives there, and stayed in many vacation rentals. This is our new favorite and will be our first choice in future trips. The owners (Kevin in particular) were thorough in communications and made the booking, check-in and the whole experience easy. The condo was just as pictures show, perfectly appointed with anything you would need during your visit (shampoo/conditioner, full kitchen, beach towels, chairs, etc.) - you only need to bring yourself and clothes. The location of the condo is also ideal with perfect view of sunsets from the lanai or the incredible rooftop terrace. Grocery and other shops and restaurants are literally across the street. I cannot recommend this condo enough and am so grateful to Kevin and his family for offering this lovely home-away-from-home and their warm aloha spirit.

Perfect!!
We couldn’t have been more happy with this wonderful condo. The views of the ocean and the beaches from the lanai are more than we had hoped for and to go to sleep and wake up to the sound of surf was heaven. Kevin’s condo can’t be beat. Immaculate and so nicely furnished. The kitchen is very well equipped and organized. The owner thought of everything. Loved having beach chairs and umbrella to use and very convenient to have Snorkel Bob’s across the street to rent snorkel gear. We didn’t rent a car since we came Maui just to relax and enjoy the ocean so having restaurants and shopping so close was perfect for us. This is our third trip to Maui and first time staying in Kihei. Loved it!! Than you, Kevin, for being such an attentive and accommodating host.

Found on VRBO. Wanted to try staying in a different area of Maui instead of Lahaina/Kaanapalli area. Good decision! This condo is clean has A/C quiet even though steet is not far away. Short walk to 2 beaches. The parking is good. The sunset view is the bomb! Pool is nice and well kept. Good eating within walking distance. The balcony has great views.
