About this property

Direct Oceanfront EVERY Room Kauhale Makai #214 - Largest Unit Available


We think our condo will be everything you are looking for to have a perfect vacation. #214 is located on the second floor; close enough to the ground to watch all the local bird and quail activity across the property grounds and yet high enough to offer extensive views of the boats on the ocean, colorful water sports and humpback whales breaching in season (Dec – April). Every sunset is different and can be seen from different vantage points from either of the private lanais off the living room or master bedroom.

This condo is the largest floor plan available; don't be fooled, but look at this closely - most 2BR/2Bath units at Kauhale Makai are 799 sq. ft. Only a few units like ours with both bedrooms directly looking out upon the ocean are 975 sq. ft. What you end up paying for a unit doesn't correlate with what you will get, so look closely at what size you are getting. We have done an extensive remodeling project involving the entire unit. You will enjoy the beauty, inside and out. It is so peaceful and private here.

This condo sleeps 6 with comfortable options for either two couples or a family. One bedroom has a King bed and the other bedroom has a queen-size bed. Both rooms serve as master bedrooms with views of the Pacific Ocean, West Maui Mountains, neighboring islands and Ma’alaea Harbor. Each has its own separate adjoining bathroom. For the family option, the King bed is prepared in advance as two twin beds. The queen pull-out sofa bed in the living room is new and very comfortable with advanced mattress technology (mattress is 8 1/2" thick, as thick as a standard bed mattress).

Experienced Hawaiian vacationers will appreciate the quiet, central air conditioning; a rare commodity in condo complexes in Kihei. This really makes for a more comfortable stay.

Boogie boards, air mattresses, beach toys, beach chairs and umbrellas, beach towels and coolers are provided. There is a wide range of restaurants and a farmer’s market within a mile of the condo. Nearby you will find shopping centers ranging from outlet malls to world class boutiques - and golfing in Wailea. Beaches known around the world are only minutes away.

Last, but not least, to rent this condo is a unique experience in service and communication. Margie, the owner, does not work through a managing agency through the reservation process but receives all communication herself before and during your stay. She has a fast response rate and as you can tell from the multiple rave reviews, having this connection with her makes a big difference towards having a wonderful vacation experience. She does not charge an administrative add-on fee for her hands-on care of her guests like you will see on many listings.

First time on Maui

We met our daughter, son-in-law and grandson for an all too brief Maui vacation. We couldn’t have been happier with our choice to stay at Margie’s place. The location is awesome, and she has thought of everything to make a guests stay very comfortable. If we ever go back, we would certainly stay here again.

Wonderful Condo and Location

Delightful stay in Kihei

Margie's home is wonderful. Very comfortable and nicely appointed. The views from every room are wonderful and the unit it quiet being situated away from the pool. And if you are a cook like I am, wanting a condo in order to eat in frequently, you will be very pleased. I stay in Vrbo places frequently and have never stayed in one where the kitchen was so well supplied with everything you could need to make a complete dinner. I never looked for anything that I could not find. I also particularly liked that it was just a bit north of the main Kihei action but close enough for easy access. Now I'm just trying to figure out how soon I can go again!

Amazing stay!!!

We stayed at Margie’s place with another couple. It was big enough that each couple had their own space and a wonderful kitchen and living room area for game playing and socializing. We were steps away from a wonderful beach walk each morning. The condo was quiet, people were kind and communication with Margie was so easy. We absolutely loved this condo.

Starting point

This is a great place to stay to start your trip. It's only about 20 min from airport and great view of the Ocean. This is more the heart of Maui and closer to Haleakala to start your trip. If your planning to see Hana area this is also closer than the west end of island where we stayed the rest of our trip.

The photos do not do justice to the beauty of the surroundings as well as the great condition of the condo which is well stocked with everything you would want for a week at the beach. The owner was great in providing helpful information after a late flight at night as well. This vacation was perfect. This is the best condo in kihei which has gorgeous beaches with turtles coming ashore. I can't recommended enough.

Our family of six had a wonderful stay at this lovely unit. Neat, clean, spacious unit with all the amenities and necessities to make our stay comfortable and fun. Grandkids loved the pool and beach just steps away. Location was great, situated away from the crowd of central Kihei area. Owner Margie is a excellent host. Great communication ahead, during our stay, responds quickly to emails and text messages. Highly recommend staying here. Thank you Margie!

We were only at this property for two days, but we found it to be very nice. The property is older, but sill in good condition. The condo had a great view of the Pacific and West Maui. Our host was wonderful. Overall a great value. Our friends stayed in another two bedroom unit in the same building that was much smaller. This unit was very large in comparison.

Amazing vacation

The condo unit is beautifully supplied with everything we needed for a fun and relaxing time at the beach. Margie is a friendly, accommodating, informative and responsive host. I appreciated that she reached out before our visit to inquire whether we wanted one king bed or two twin beds in the master suite. The views from the second floor balcony are breathtaking. We absolutely loved that from nearly everywhere in the unit you could view the ocean. The circular mirror in the dining room is perfectly positioned so that everyone at table can still enjoy the stunning view.

Gorgeous views!

Margie’s “Maui Bliss” is truly bliss! We arrived after dark and will always remember the thrill of opening the curtains the next morning to this amazing view. Photos don’t do it justice. Peaceful, beautiful, birds singing and a big green belt with palm trees then ocean views—what could be better. The interesting thing about this condo is it is only about a mile from lots of restaurants, etc. and yet you feel secluded in your own piece of paradise. Inside, the beds are so comfortable, and the bedrooms have black-out curtains. The condo is organized and equipped with everything you could possibly need for your stay. Lots of dresser space was appreciated. Views from all windows. Relaxing TV area. You really don’t need to leave. Sunsets from the lanai can’t be missed. What amazing, beautiful colors. Highly recommend this lovely condo.

Kihei is OPEN

The area is suffering with lack of tourists! I can't say how many times we were thanked for coming. Our snorkeling excursion could hold 67 pp....we had 18. The location of this condo was great! (not close to the fire area). A lot of restaurants, shopping, etc. within a short drive. It was great to have 2 bedrroms with ocean views. Several beach chairs, umbrella, ice chest, ect at the condo. Was great to load in the car and explore other beaches. Was also fun to sit in the hot tub at night. Margie, the owner, was attentive and has kept up the maintenance at the condo.

Wonderful

My husband, our 19 year old son and 13 year old daughters stayed here for 6 nights in June. Check in was very easy, and the unit was very clean and well appointed with everything we needed for our stay including beach towels, chairs, and boogie boards. Location was safe and easy to get to shopping as well as other parts of the island. The ocean view from this unit was amazing. There is a beach across the green space, which is beautifil to look at, walk on, and watch the amazing sunset from, but not great for swimming due to the amount of coral that is constantly washing up. But there are many nearby swimming beaches that are easily accessible. Margie is an excellent host with wonderful communication skills. We loved our stay here and would definitely recommend her home to others and would stay here again ourselves if we ever make it back to Maui.

Retirement Dream and Birthday for the Books

What a wonderful place to stay. Maui is a beautiful island and Margie and her husband’s willingness to share their piece of paradise is priceless. With 4 adults and an almost 2 year old traveling together, we didn’t know what to expect, but we found a solidly built condo where you not only didn’t hear your neighbors, you didn’t hear anything from either bedroom suite. Comfortable beds, two full baths, nice furnishings and a fully functional kitchen provided everything our family needed. Add to that a direct view of and access to the ocean, an elevator, gas grills, pool, kiddie pool and hot tub and we thought we were the luckiest people in the world. Don’t hesitate to rent this unit, it’s exactly as described and the owners are great to work with. Thank you Margie and Glenn, we hope to visit again soon. Mahalo, Chuck and Joy, Matt and Jamie and baby Zoe.

About the host

Hosted by Margie Olson

Host profile image
We are a married couple in our 60s with three grown kids. We live in Washington State and Glenn is retired but Margie is still having fun working as a nurse manager in a hospital. When we are both retired we hope to spend a lot more time at our condo being warm. We see this purchase as a family investment and want to make it as nice as possible for others to experience.

Something that makes a big difference for our guests is that Margie does not work through a booking agency to rent her condo. Because she personally manages her reservations and wants to receive all questions, she has a fast response rate and it is a personal experience for you as the guest if questions arise before or during your stay. As you can tell from reading her rave reviews, having this connection with the owner makes a big difference.

Why they chose this property

Kihei is on the sunny-side of Maui. We wanted to chose a location that would be the best bet for great weather year-round. We also appreciate that the location is central to everything on Maui - everything you want to see or do is close.

What makes this property unique

Our condo is very large, almost 1000 sq. ft.; both bedrooms feel like master rooms with panoramic views and each has its own custom-designed bathroom. We are located directly on the oceanfront with spectacular views and direct, easy access to the beach but not so close to the water that beachcombers are underfoot. Lastly, we think the second floor location is perfect because it provides excellent views of all the property wildlife and the Pacific Ocean with a total sense of privacy.
