Great stay
We had a great stay, everything was comfortable and accessible. The location is great and there is good people watching from the balcony. Beds were comfy and good light blocking/sound makers available to lessen street noise. The condo did get hot in the afternoon and early evening, but we were usually out exploring during that time.

Spring Break with Family
The property had everything we could ask for. The view from the room is amazing and Kam 3 Beach is so close and very nice. There is a decent amount of street noise, so if you are sensitive to that, bring ear plugs.

Wonderful
We have stayed in this condo several times now. The views from the deck are outstanding. (Sunsets in the evening, whale watching on occasion and the large waves from Kamolie 3 beach.) A short walk and you have shopping and some nice places to eat. The condo is clean and well organized.

Amazing
This condos is very clean & comfortable. The beds are comfortable. The bedding is adequate but the white towels could be replaced. Our only issue was the road noise as the condo is very close to Kehei Road. The owners have sound machines to help block the traffic noise but the garbage trucks & loud cars & motorcycles still are extremely loud. The other issue is the homeless lady who showers on property in the sand shower each Tues are 8 AM. She is comfortable enough to be totally naked . Not a great situation for young children . The traffic noise & the homeless cannot be controlled by owners. Overall we enjoyed out time

Beautifully appointed condo, right across street from wonderful beach
Everything about the condo was wonderful--the only thing that wasn't perfect is that there was some street noise, so if you're sensitive to that, be aware that it's on S. Kihei Road which has a fair amount of traffic.Other than that, it exceeded all expectations. It's gorgeously decorated, it's got views from both bedrooms and the living/dining room of Kamaole 3, which is a terrific and beautiful location. They have everything you need and many things you want--kitchen has appliances, pans, storage containers, etc.; the beach pantry has beach chairs, toys, umbrella, snorkel gear, etc. Kamaole Beach Park 3 is a terrific beach and right across the street, and there were TONS of turtles during our stay and also some whales in the distance, and we got super lucky and actually saw a seal swim right up to shore for a few seconds. We love this part of Kihei-in addition to the gorgeous beaches, just up the road are all kinds of wonderful restaurants and shops.All communications with property owners and property managers were excellent and helpful.

Wonderful experience
We really enjoyed our stay in this condo. The views were wonderful. Each day we had coffee on the patio with a view of the ocean. We were also walking distance from several restaurants. The unit had everything that you would need including chairs to take to the beach, beach towels and all the kitchen essentials. We can constantly complemented the decor. It's a beautiful island decorated unit. We were also happy to have on site parking. We must say that initially we thought you had to be a skilled driver to get into the parking spot, but after a couple of days we were able to get in without much anxiety. 😀 We highly recommend staying and would definitely stay again.

About the host

Hosted by Sean Gaston Steer

Host profile image
My partner Jim and I live in the San Francisco Bay Area and have been coming to Kihei for years. Its our favorite Hawaiian destinaion after visiting all other islands. We have always dreamed of owning a very "Hawaiian" feeling property....and found it! I am an Interior Designer and Jim is a General Contractor and we restore and remodel vintage homes for a living....you'll love what we've done with the condo. :)

Why they chose this property

Our Mid Century Maui home was completely remodeled. Beautifully new but maintains its wonderful Island feeling. You can't beat the location, the view, the sound of the ocean and the vintage Hawaiian decor with all the modern necessities. We look forward to sharing it with you!

What makes this property unique

Professionally decorated and comfortable....You will love the 16 foot high bamboo ceilings, walls of glass facing the ocean, the Lanai, vintage Shoji screens, the open layout with great separation of space. Really nice to have 2 full baths with plenty of room to share!
