About this property

Sunsets from the lanai of 203 embrace you, AC keeps you cool in this 2/2 unit

If you come to Maui for the warm breezes that seem to kiss your skin, then this unit -#203 - is just waiting for you. The trade winds that love our area keep you cool and comfy. Not that you need it that much but there is AIR CONDITIONING - and it sure is nice to have when the trade winds take their own vacation! Air handlers are in each bedroom and the living room.

Relax on your private lanai where you can watch the ocean and maybe even some whales in the winter months. Kite surfers love the harbor and you can watch them from your perch on the lanai as well. Love the mountains? You can see those gorgeous views too. Go to sleep to, and wake up to, the sound of the ocean lapping at the beach - enjoy your morning coffee on the lanai as the sun wakes up and lights the West Maui Mountains. A glass of wine in the evening as the sun sets, the lights twinkling at Ma'alaea Harbor, and the breeze ruffling your hair, is pure perfection.

This two bedroom, two bath 2nd floor condominium will be your home while you explore the magic of the Valley Isle. In winter months, the Humpback whales provide a show you'll never forget - and yes, you can often see them from the lanai - and of course the rooftop!

This well appointed unit comes with a FULLY EQUIPPED KITCHEN, REVOLVING PANTRY, and WASHER/DRYER.

All of your linen needs are included; the master bedroom has a TV and the living area includes a 50' SMART FLAT SCREEN. WIFI internet is FREE OF CHARGE. The wifi access information is near the TV, in the information binder and in the kitchen.

***THIS IS A NON-SMOKING UNIT***

In front of the complex is the Ko'ie'ie Fishpond - an ancient wall built several hundred years ago by local fisherman to snare their fish. This wall now creates a calm beachfront for swimming - perfect for little ones or older ones. Walk around the point in front of the National Humpback Whale Sanctuary next door and find a few bigger waves perfect for boogie boarding and watching the wind surfers out in Ma'alaea Harbor.

The sea turtles love to hang out on this wall and sometimes take their naps right on the beach. Please DO NOT get closer than 10ft of these beautiful creatures! Respect their privacy :)

North Kihei Stay
My husband and I, as well as a second couple stayed at the condo and were very pleased with the accommodations. The place was clean, comfortable, and well stocked with amenities. We really enjoyed that there were floaties and other beach accessories! We were there at the peak of whale season and rented a kayak that we took right out of the bay at the condo and got up close and personal with amazing wildlife! The roof views of sunsets were spectacular, and the Indian restaurant in the building was delicious! I would recommend this to anyone looking to stay in the area.

Nice condo
Loved the lanai as it was shaded all day long so was always comfortable. Condo sited so that with all doors and windows open there is a nice breeze right through it. Never had to use the AC. Lots of supplies and kitchen was well equipped. Close to Kihei road so there is quite a bit of road noise during the day until 10 pm or so. If condo closed up you probably would not notice it. Enjoyed the on site restaurant. Owner quick to reply to questions.

Great Condo in great area!
We really enjoyed our stay at this property. Clean unit that had everything we needed. Beautiful view and quiet area. My kids loved the grassy area to play games, watching the sunset from the top of the building was a favorite of ours and fun to see turtles up close in the fish pond each day. Central location and close to restaurants which made it nice. We would definitely stay here again. Our family loved our week staying here!

Great Location
Very nice grounds. Near beach and lot's of turtles. Pretty much everything you need in the condo. The 4 beach chairs and umbrella are pretty well used, but hey, lot's of places don't provide those amenities. (One thing, if you are looking for a place that has a fitness center, this property doesn't have one). Kitchen well stocked with what's needed. We enjoyed our stay and would book again.

Clean comfortable condo right on the beach.
We really enjoyed staying here with our family. The place was clean, stocked with anything you might need for the beach and such a beautiful view. It was very convenient having beach chairs and towels there at the condo. The restaurant on the ground floor was AMAZING too! Traveling with a 4 year old is never easy but having the fold down sofa was such a blessing. Everyone slept good while we were there. I recommend this place to anyone looking for a Nice place to stay.

The perfect stay
This was the perfect stay in Maui! This apartment was well stocked from the kitchen to the beach toys/gear. Location was perfect with the only small complaint being parking can be hard to find(especially with a larger vehicle) in the evening. Host was amazing. Quick to respond to messages both before and during our stay. This was our first trip to Maui and we hope to come back and stay here again.

Home away from home!
Our family had a wonderful stay at this home away from home. Everything was as described with amenities on site and within our condominium,. With poolside and rooftop barbecues, private pool, and a local restaurant within the complex that served amazing food. The location was excellent with access to all shops and amenities just a short drive away and many beaches or parks within 5 to 10 minute walk. I highly recommend this condominium that has a wonderful ocean sunset view with a very lovely host (Sharon) and if we do come back, we will certainly stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Sharon George

Host profile image
OWNER: Sharon H
Love love love the ocean and it's been a dream to have a home in Maui for many years, and be able to hear the ocean waves. Now it's time to relax and share with you all too! Happy to have you visit.

Why they chose this property

Menehune Shores is so centrally located to all things you might want to do on the island. Only 15 minutes from the airport (and Costco!), 10 minutes from Maalaea Harbor, 10 minutes from Wailea, and 25 miles (45-60 min) from Lahaina & Kaanapali. Shopping malls are in Wailea and Lahaina; tours you might want to take are easily accessible and if you decide you don't want to rent a car, there are many restaurants and grocery stores within walking distance. Golf you say? Of course! Many within a short distance.

What makes this property unique

I think the weather is the best in Kihei. I've stayed in just about all parts of the island and find that I love the weather here best. The sunsets from the lanai are spectacular! And rainbows?? Oh yes! Whales sightings?? You betcha! (During the season Dec-Mar)
