Your beachfront escape awaits... This is the perfect spot for your romantic getaway! Right on the beach, you'll enjoy days in the sun, romantic meals dining on the private garden lanai with views of the azure Pacific and nights falling asleep in the luxurious canopy bed listening to the ocean waves lapping at the shore. Just 30 steps to the white sand beach and warm Pacific from both the private garden lania and front door! This truly is a magical spot.
Newly remodeled and updated with all the amenities (everything is brand new). You'll enjoy luxury accommodations at a fraction of what you would pay elsewhere.
Maalaea Bay is perfectly located and central to the entire island so it's easy to get out and explore... Watch the sunrise from high atop the clouds at the 10,000 ft. summit of Haleakala Volcano (about 45 minutes to the summit). Shop the luxury stores of Wailea (about 20 minutes away). If it is snorkeling, fishing or whale watching that interests you, just walk 5 minutes to Maalaea Harbor and jump on one the many different boat tours leaving throughout the day. Craving a little nightlife? Lahaina is only about a 20 minute drive away.
I hope you can come and stay to enjoy what I believe to be one of the best spots in Maui. See you soon !

This was a nice place to stay. It had all of the amenities we needed. The only downside is it wasn't on the water as I was hoping or it appeared in the pictures. The condo building is next to the water but this unit did not have a view of the water. I love the location and its nearness to the marina.
We enjoyed our stay here! I would have given all 5 stars if it weren't for the loud A/C unit going all night, and a couple of insects made it in on the ground floor unit.
All in all, it's a great place for the money!
It was perfect for two, close to airport, Costco and walking distance to the marina where we took our dinner cruise. Walking distance to a beautiful beach where we snorkeled and saw turtles. Nice kitchen with every thing we needed. Craig was a wonderful host. We came to stay for the Maui Marathon, the half start line was just up the road.
Great accommodations Owner's communication prior to trip excellent. Welcome gift greatly appreciated. Owner couldn't have been more accessible. Will stay again.
Location, cleanliness, ease of communication with owner all first class. Stayed in dozens of VRBO's and this is by far in the top two. Just a couple steps to a great beach for whale and turtle watching!
The condo is in a quiet area with direct ocean front access and a short walk to a public beach that wasn't crowed at all. The condo was perfect size for the two of us.
We were in close proximity to all the island had to offer, but removed from the hustle and bustle of the bigger cities. There were some great restaurants close by which was nice.
The owner was very responsive and informative to n accommodations. It’s nice a private by vegetation. Parking spot are small so if you decided to rent a full size car, it’s best to just park along the road. Felt very safe. The AC works great.
Perfect place for my husband and I . The owner communicated often and was very hospitable. The condo is perfect for a couple on a vacation. It was nice to have an insulated bag provided so we could truck around the island without having to make a special stop for drinks or food.
It's close to a little town so you don't have to drive far for groceries or whatever is needed for your trip.
Did I mention it's right next to a beach? :)
Having never been to Maui I had no idea where to stay on the island, so it was only luck that brought me to Craig's condo! This is the perfect spot. Central location to drive to all areas of the island. There is a great beach just steps away with beautiful sunset views.
Craig is a wonderful host who gave us great recommendations. His condo is comfortable and so quiet. I didn't need to wear ear plugs that I always bring on vacation, just in case. The laundry room is located steps from the condo, so bring quarters if you need to do laundry. Overall it was a great stay!
Aloha,
We stayed at Craigs place while visiting the Island to celebrate my wife’s birthday. Craig was in communication with us from the time we booked last year to check out to provide us with information on anything we asked, plus he provided something special for Barbs birthday!
There is great food available within walking distance along with shops with local made goods. The condo itself is was very clean, stocked with every utensil one needs to cook and play on the beach.
Craig is a “Super Host” and we will definitely stay at his place again, should we return to Maui!
Mahalo!

Overall good for short stays
Improvement required : Cleaning staff missed putting soap. Bathroom needs upgrade : shower head not adjustable, old bathtub tiles. Kitchen has all new appliances but dinner plates and bowls were not microwavable. Basic pantry like sugar was missing. Closet door broken. Bluetooth speaker's remote not working.
Good part : Only few steps away from beach. Location was central. Owner responded very quickly.
Overall for short stays, this is a good property. All new kitchen appliances but bathroom needs upgrade.

Condo is about a half hour drive from Lahina where there are many activities. Walmart and Costco are near the airport. I had placed an online order to pick up once we landed. Cell service I have verizon worked fine.
I highly reccommend booking here. Craig went out of his way to ensure our stay was perfect.
We will most definitely stay here again next time in Maui.
That is all for now. I have to finish packing to leave this beautiful island;(
Mahalo Craig!!

Eine wunderschöne Anlage mit schönen, kleinen Appartements, direkt am Meer mit schönem Strand. Es gibt einen Pool mit Meerblick und Grillterrasse. Die Wohnung ist mit einer tollen KitchenAid-Küche ausgestattet, hat ein sauberes Bad mit großer Dusche und ist sehr praktisch ausgestattet. Direkt zur Anlage gehört ein Parkplatz.
We spent a lovely couple of nights in this bay after 3 nights further around the coast in Napili. The apartment had everything we needed. Beautiful kitchen and appliances. Aircon was awesome. Very comfortable apartment.
Recommend Tante’s Fishmarket Restaurant & Bar for dinner. Happy hour cocktails until 6pm USD$3.80 each. Great menu & prices. 15 min walk or short drive away.
Thanks Craig for a wonderful stay.
We spent two weeks at this property in November. The property was super clean (kuddos to the cleaners), and just about 20 steps to the pool/beach as per the description. Craig was in contact with us right away to let us know details about check-in and helped us with a couple questions. The location was really great! I can't emphasize this enough. Quick access to west Maui, quick access to shopping in the north (read Costco, Target, Walmart), and quick access to Kihei area. Having the beach so close was also a treat - you could put your toes in the sand within about 30 seconds of leaving the condo. Also want to say thanks to the caretaker who helped us twice - once when I jammed coins in the laundry machine and once when we were having an issue with the grill (really nice grills btw). No place is perfect, and there were just a few negatives - a leaky faucet, a broken kitchen drawer, a rather old (but functional) living room curtain. We made Craig aware of these and he plans to work on getting them repaired. Also, we tried sleeping one night with the windows open, but there was a rather strong sewage smell (only happened a couple days of the 17 days there, and they pump the system regularly), the roosters crowing at 5 am, and the noise of kids fussing at 6 am encouraged us to not try that again. We often opened the windows in early morning and evening (lovely), but closed them up during the heat of the day and at night so no noise/smell issues. We didn't try the pool, but it seemed a popular option with others. Would stay here again!
As family of 4 we spent 19 days in this property through Christmas 2021 and the new year 2022, clean condo had all necessary requirement to enjoy comfortable beach vacation only few steps from the beach, great location to visit the island.
Craig was great host very responsive.
Highly recommend, I will book this property again and again...
My husband and I really enjoyed our stay. The location was excellent, central and away from the main tourist areas but within easy access to them and to shopping when we wanted to go. The condo was well equipped, comfortable and clean. The owner was exceptional, a great communicator and was always concerned that our stay was comfortable.
Craig’s condo is adorable. We were there only there a short time so we didn’t have a chance to use the kitchen but it looked well stocked.
I would highly recommend it.
