About this property

DIRECT Oceanfront! Amazing Panoramic View Sugar Beach 427! Refresh, Relax, Enjoy

Our beautifully furnished condo on the fourth floor is a remarkable 30 feet from the Pacific ocean.

Sugar Beach Resort is a tranquil beachfront condominium resort located in North Kihei. It is centrally located on the island and close to amenities such as groceries, shopping, restaurants, gas stations, etc. There are two six-story buildings at the Resort with elevators. Sugar Beach which fronts the property offers exceptional sunsets and is great for swimming, snorkeling, paddleboarding, windsurfing, long relaxing beach walks on the soft sandy beach, turtle gazing and spectacular seasonal whale watching.

Sugar Beach Resort offers central air conditioning, a large heated pool with hot tub overlooking the ocean, children's wading pool, and sauna. There is a well-maintained gas barbeque area that overlooks the ocean, Dina's Sandwich and Bar, On-site Massage and FREE on-site parking.

As soon as you walk into our condo you will see spectacular views of the ocean and from our lanai, you will see a panoramic view of the Pacific along with views of Molokini and other islands. Everything is provided, including central air conditioning, Tommy Bahama decor, and a private lanai where you can enjoy your meals, have a glass of wine or just read a book. We also have a keyless entry system so you don't need to worry about carrying keys. All that awaits is your arrival so you can begin your stay and enjoy a fabulous Hawaiian experience!

Inside the condo you have a fully equipped and well-stocked kitchen, full-size washer and dryer, SmartTV flat screen with full cable in living room and bedroom which BOTH have wireless internet and HDMI, ceiling fan in the bedroom, with full king-size bed, FREE wireless internet, FREE long distance phone between Canada and US, Bluetooth sound system, private lanai, luxury linens, bath towels and beach towels, blow dryer, iron and ironing board, Tommy Bahama beach chairs, cooler and much more!

We welcome you to our home!

We believe in having similar amenities available to us as we do at our home in Vancouver. Our primary desire is to have a home away from home.

We have three children and know how great it is to get away to enjoy "Family" (Ohana). This is the primary purpose for the condo for people to have an escape from everyday life and reconnect, relax and enjoy a beautiful holiday in Maui!

As business people, we can appreciate there are times when we do have to contact the outside world. It's important to be able to do this as easy as possible because the faster you can clear your work schedule the faster you can get back to enjoying your holiday. That is why we have FREE wireless internet and FREE long distance throughout the US and Canada.

We hope you enjoy our home and can reconnect with family and friends. For more information and photos please contact us.

Blessings to you and yours!

Beautiful Place to Relax and Get Away
We decided to book a last minute vacation to Maui and when we saw 427 pop up on VRBO, we could not say no. This property was exactly as advertised; a nice, comfortable condo on a beautiful beach in a great location. The property is quiet, clean and serene. You can fall asleep listening to the sounds of the waves crashing on the beach, which was one of my favorite parts of the stay (other than the stunning ocean views). Also, the owner is very easy to communicate with, which made my wife and I all the more comfortable with our choice. Overall, I highly recommend this place and would come back again to relax and unwind!

Comfortable Stay
Accurate posting, we were happy with our stay. The property is 15 min drive to most restaurants and beaches which means it was very quiet at night and in the mornings but also meant getting groceries for the kitchen is the more convenient option. The balcony is nice, we saw turtles and a reef shark from above. Washer and dryer in unit are new and nice. The Kihei area felt more relaxing overall than Lahaina. The property itself is underwhelming but not necessary with so much to do outside of it.

Great Stay but Construction Every day
The condo is fantastic - lots of room, well equipped, very nice! The pool and hot tub and location are great. The condo needs a deep cleaning. I would stay her again; however, I would ask about construction. During our stay there was construction going on in a unit above ours. Floor tile was being removed with a jackhammer throughout the day for most of our stay. I was not told this would be happening prior to booking. We would have booked another location in Sugar Beach Condos if we would have known prior. Construction is booked ahead of time and the property owner would have known but did not share this information prior to us booking.

Condo in Paradise
This condo was just right for my husband and I to stay in with our 4 year old. The location in Kihei is very central to everything on the island. The condo is small, but it’s enough for a small family. My son slept on the pull out sofa luckily cause it was not comfortable at all but he didn’t seem to mind. We were given some small supplies like dishwashing liquid, coffee and filters, shampoo, toilet paper, etc. It was really nice having the coffee already provided since we got in near midnight. We used the washer and dryer multiple times, and found out the dryer vent actually comes out in the bathroom which is connected to the bedroom and would make the bedroom really hot when we ran it. The grounds at the resort were very pretty, nice pool area, and very short walk to the beach. The beach is beautiful, of course being in Hawaii, however directly in front of the resort are a lot of rocks once you begin to wade out. We found out on the last day if you walk to the edge of the resort beach property and wade out from there, there are no rocks. Due to the sand being dark brown, the water isn’t exceptionally clear until you get out a bit where the waves aren’t hitting the beach. Then you see that clear sapphire Pacific water. The absolute best thing about this condo was being able to see the whales from our lanai. We saw multiple every day, and it’s an incredible experience! The only complaint I have is the management company does not communicate well. I’ve stayed in many condos and had to deal with management companies, and this one was the worst. They want you to use an app to get all your info and check in instructions. I let them know a week prior to our arrival that I could not log into the app. Reviews on the App Store for it say it’s had this issue for many months, yet I was told I still had time to log in before my trip. Because I traveled while the COVID mandates were still in place, I had to send them our approval once we landed at the airport and again, I couldn’t get in the app so I had to track down a phone number. They did respond quickly to that with our code to get in our condo. We realized the next day we never received the WiFi password or pool gate code. I had to reach out to get the WiFi code and luckily another guest let us in the pool. It took awhile to get the WiFi code. I was also not informed that I needed to check in at the office until there was a note taped to the door. Overall, I’d stay again.

Beautiful view, comfortable stay
We have stayed in a number of ocean front units at Sugar Beach. This is a very well positioned unit with a fantastic view. The condo is nicely renovated and comfortable. Our one big complaint is that we did not receive the code to open the front door with our welcome email before we arrived, as I have with every other condo we have ever rented including four trips in 2021 during COVID. We arrived late in the evening, and when I brought up the email from the management company there was no code and no instructions. This was super frustrating as we stood in the parking lot calling the management company after a 14 hour trip, and of course getting a recording because it’s 8pm. Turns out this is standard procedure for this group, who then asked me to send them a copy of my vaccination card before they would give me the code. Maui already requires proof of vaccination or negative test for admission at the airport so this step seemed superfluous; why not request this information before we arrive so our check in can be fast and smooth, rather than inconvenient and awkward? Other minor quibbles: older and inadequate number of towels, meager supplies provided compared to the other units we have stayed in. But we would recommend this unit for the view and overall comfort.

We don't like giving negative reviews, but feel we owe it to future prospective customers...
First of all, let me just say one VERY positive thing . . . the location of this property is AWESOME! Sugar Beach was a new destination for my hubby, who's been to Maui countless times before. The fact that we could walk for literally MILES down the beach was just what we love, so it's got that going for it. Also, the view from the lanai was fabulous. Unfortunately, we can't speak that highly about this particular condo. The first thing we noticed was a rank odor upon entering the condo. Not sure if it was from the washing machine? A very sour odor. I opened the slider to let in some fresh air, stepped out onto the lanai, and noticed another foul odor of some kind. Maybe the carpet on the lanai has mold/mildew? I don't know, but it was difficult to stay out there for any length of time. The last thing I want to talk about is the couch/sofa bed. SO VERY UNCOMFORTABLE!!!! Sitting on it was so uncomfortable and we decided after a couple days to open up the bed part to lay on it, thinking that would be more comfortable. Is wasn't. I can't imagine anyone being able to sleep there. My husband thought the bed was really uncomfortable, but it was ok for me. So - some good stuff, some not-so-good stuff. Just our opinion.

The unit is very nice, roomy for a 1 br, nice views, pool and spa. Do not expect much from the management team if anything should go wrong. We had no air conditioning for 2 days and nights and would really appreciate a partial refund. The local management company was no help.
