About this property

Beautiful full-view of Maalaea Bay. Lanai overlooks pool. King size bed.

THIS CONDO IS SIMPLY ONE OF THE BEST IN THIS METICULOUSLY MAINTAINED DEVELOPMENT

We have just finished extensive re-modeling, including new 18x18 Italian floor tile throughout, new kitchen and bath cabinets with granite countertops, and brand new teak plantation style furniture.

Our home away from home is located on the third floor, and has expansive ocean views from the bedroom and living room lanais. Our unit also faces the beautiful INTERIOR of the complex and/or overlooks the well manicured tropical landscaping and pool area (versus many other units overlooking the exterior and/or the mountain view/parking lot area).

Our condo is located in the Kauhale Makai Resort, and is also known as Village by the Sea. Our address is 938 South Kihei Road, #328, Kihei, Maui, Hawaii, and we are on the ocean side of Kihei Road. Our unit comfortably sleeps four with a brand new serta king size bed with luxurious 600 thread count sheets, and queen size futon in the living room.

Our condo complex features a manned lobby, concierge service for booking your outings, elevators, coin operated laundry rooms on every floor, newly remodeled pool area plus a kiddie pool and Jacuzzi, gas fireplaces adjacent to the pool, a putting green, a volley ball court, and shuffleboard. We also have the most incredible ocean side tennis courts immediately adjacent to our complex. And we have broadband high speed internet (the fastest speed on the island).

We are a 20 minute drive from Maui – Kahului Airport. We are 2 minutes from downtown Kihei with grocery stores, restaurants, and shopping aplenty. We are within 5 minutes of the world famous Kamaole I, II, and III beaches. And we are within 10 minutes of beautiful Wailea and the upscale 'Shops at Wailea' shopping center.

Maui is world famous for its beaches, and you will find that you can trek from the beach in front of our unit endlessly along the coastline.

We have an activity director in our lobby, which can assist you in booking endless fun, including: luaus, whale watching tours, sailing, horseback riding, snorkeling, golf, biking down a volcano, wine tasting, fishing, jet skiing, windsurfing, surfing, etc…, etc…, etc…

We take pride in our home away from home and hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Aloha and welcome,
Jim and Debbie, owners since 1983

Great Family Resort!

The property grounds are very well maintained. The pool and BBQ areas were sparked up daily by the resort staff who were all so kind and skilled.The condo had two Tommy Bahama chairs available for us to use and a couple of beach towels which was all we needed to get started. The kitchen had simple amenities and included all the basics.The highlight for us was the daily pool meetups with other families that had kids the same age. This crew would usually clear out around 11 and make way for the quiet book-reading poolside adults. There were always enough chairs for everyone.If you have a rental car I strongly recommend this spot. It’s within a 10 minute drive of so many beaches, shopping, Maui Ocean Center, quick to/from Kahului and good access to West Maui!

Love this condo just needs some fixing up

Thank you for letting us stay at your place. We love staying in this complex it’s close to everything. The condo has a beautiful view and everything you need. There’s just a few things that needs attention. The curtains have food on them and need to be cleaned. One of the screens on the doors are completely ripped on bottom half but neither one barely open or close and are very loud. These are minor things but we felt like we were bothering are neighbors every time we wanted to go on Lanai, it’s such a peaceful and quiet place. Maholo

Just OK

My wife and I stayed for two weeks in February 2025. Pros: The views from the lanai are absolutely beautiful. We saw whales every day. The location on the island is close to everything. Cons: This accommodation did not meet my standard of cleanliness. Cupboards, cutlery and fridge were dirty. Behind and under the bed was very dirty. The coffee maker and blender had not been cleaned in along time - I went to Walmart and bought my own. Aside from the flooring and countertops, this place is in need of some TLC, updating and a thorough cleaning. For the rent and cleaning fees we paid, I expected far better. On a side note (and no fault of the owner) the pool area is very small and there is no bathroom. Every day we saw people spend a long time in the pool without leaving.

early January 2025 visit

This property was well positioned for access to all the restaurants and public beach parks of Kihei without being right by them. It was a good value for the area and great for a couple. This particular unit doesn't face the sunset but there's a large yard and sandy beach on property to view sunset or watch the activity on the cove and beyond.

Stay in Kihei for a few days

Overall, I enjoyed my stay at the Condo. It looked and felt as advertised. The only thing I would recommend as an improvement would be the bed, mattress, and pillows - I think they have aged and they should be replaced for a more comfortable stay.

Our experience with the host who managed the place was rude and lied. He stated that he emailed us the door combination several time but no emails was never received. Complained that we woke him up when we call him for the door combination. Place need to fix the patio door. It was off track and hard to open. Screen door was broken. Patio rail was loose on the bottom and wasn’t bolted. Very hazard. Water was leaking underneath the toilet and bathroom floor was all wet. Cleaning person knew about this water leaking but we were never informed. Top of the frig was dirty and nasty. Not enough storage containers. Pool was closed for construction which the host never informed us. In our experience this place could have been better if these issues would have been fixed before we arrived and the host’s attitude could been more polite. Too bad this page can’t attached pictures to show because I took pictures of the things that needed to be fixed. Hope these issues would be fixed before the next visitors check in to this place.

First Trip to Maui

We decided on Kihei because we were visiting with friends who lived there. The location of the condo was perfect. It was right down the road from Maui Gardens food trucks, Da Kitchen and Izakaya Genbe - I would suggest trying all. The condo was very clean and spacious. We didn’t even need to turn on the air at all- due to the breeze and patio! We live in Florida, so that is amazing for March. We drank our coffee and tea out there. We took daily 3 mile walks right out the back and down the beach. Our tour guide picked up us right in front for the Halakelah sunrise tour. We loved it! I would highly recommend staying here. We even saw whales right from the beach in back! Great location, clean and great communication with Jim.

Beautiful View! Awesome balcony!

The property was exactly as described on VRBO. Its proximity to the ocean was wonderful, a short walk over nice grass to the ocean. The location of the property is within a few miles of grocery shopping and restaurants. We found some very good ones and some not so very good ones. Condo was fully stocked with pots and pans. There was a laundry facility right outside the unit, and as long as you are familiar with phone apps, it works perfectly. The main thing we missed in check in was that you absolutely cannot check in before 3 PM. Our plane arrives early around 10 and we were not able to gain access until three. Other than that, things went just as planned.

Relaxing, comfortable and easy

Nice, easy place to stay. Thoughtful amenities were provided like beach chairs, cooler, and clothes basket for laundry. Great that you can walk directly across a green space to the beach. Relaxing, spacious lanai with a view of West Maui and the bay. I enjoyed sitting there in mornings listening to the many birds around. Would have loved to be able to walk to the nearby shopping center and food trucks rather than drive. If you’re also hoping for that, just note the main road has no sidewalk or useful shoulder the whole way so it was an unpleasant walk. But that’s pretty typical of Maui, so not a big negative.

Comfortable accommodations

We enjoyed a relaxing time at Village by the Sea. The one bedroom was a perfect size for the two of us. The location, overlooking the grassy park, with the ocean beyond was very peaceful. The unit has a nice lanai to enjoy the view. We were able to find everything we needed in the small kitchen, for meal preparation. All the furnishings were comfortable, including the king bed and the sofa. An ottoman would be good for the livingroom. The bathroom has a nice shower, and we were especially happy with the large plush bath towels supplied. If a remodel is coming up, I believe a higher toilet would be a welcome item. As we enjoy reading, in the early evening, brighter lighting would be beneficial in the livingroom and bedroom lamps. The items mentioned above do not take away from what is a great vacation rental.

About the host

Hosted by Jim deDiego

Host profile image
We have owned this unit since 1983 and have remodeled our unit 3 times constantly bringing it up to meet the needs of our clients. We have been very involved in the property and on our six week stays, we make sure that everything meets our standards. We have been with VRBO since 1999, one of the beginning members. It is truly our home away from home.

Why they chose this property

We bought this property in 1983 because of its beautiful surroundings, great location on the water, close proximity to shopping, elevator, in unit air conditioning and beautiful view of the ocean. At night, the lights of Maalaea Harbor are lit up, and you can see the far away lights of cars coming and going to Lahaina. Whales are constantly seen from the lanai during whale season.

What makes this property unique

Free whale watching from our lanai. A view of what is happening at the pool and BBQ area. Watching the sail boats stop in front of our complex to let their paying guests swim with the turtles. Watching sail boarders in the afternoon zipping to and fro from our lanai. Wading in and walking through hand made areas where fish reach maturity along our beaches. Letting go of life's complications and just relaxing and enjoying the birds and ocean views. Staying connected with love one's through our high speed wifi.
