Wonderful place to stay!

We had a wonderful almost 2 week stay here! It was the perfect size for two people and was equipped with everything we needed for the beach (chairs, umbrellas, mats, etc.), cooking and barbecuing, and for a comfortable stay. The location was great - close to many good beaches, groceries, places to eat, and we could easily drive to other places on the island. The complex felt safe, peaceful, well kept, and quiet. We were never too hot since there are 2 ceiling fans and both doors and some vents can be opened to let the breeze through. The bed was comfortable and the shower was nice. Great view from the dining table or patio, and you can go to the upper deck above the pool for a great view of the sunset and whale watching. The communication was very clear and the check-in/out process was simple. We would definitely stay here again!

Great place/ great location

This was a great property. Very well kept. It was nice and quiet, right by the ocean, and you could hear the surf at night. The only small issue was with the number of towels we were provided. Given the amount of time you spend outside and need to shower sometimes twice a day, it would been nice to have one or two more bath towels. Other than the very minor thing it was fabulous.

Our 35th Anniversary in Maui!

Weneki’s Island Paradise was fantastic!! Wendy, the host, was very accessible, communicative and super easy to work with! The studio was just perfect for my husband and I to stay while celebrating our anniversary! It was a great home base to start and end our days which will filled with exploring the island. It was very easy to get around from the location. We didn’t spend much time at the condo but the time we did spend there was very nice! We had friendly neighbors, nice deck with gorgeous views of the ocean, two neighboring islands and many rainbows! We were even able to see a sea turtle one day! We loved it there and would definitely visit again!

Perfect Hawaiian get away

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our time. The unit is perfect for two people and the kitchen cupboards have everything a cook needs. The grounds are kept neat and clean. The pool is nice and there are two grills. The lanai faces west; beautiful colors at sunset. The deck off the pool is a great place to take in ocean views and boats that go by. Wendy went out of her way To help us set the TV up. And finally,, wonderful location for golfers. I would recommend this rental property.

Pleasant stay

My daughter and I really enjoyed staying in this property. We found it just like the description said and photos reflected. Wendy was a great host and she was prompt with her responses. I would recommend this to anyone. The lack of A/C did not bother us too much, as we like a warm room, but it is maybe the only drawback for some people who are used to a cooler home.

No AC

In this era of global warming the bar must be raised to obtain a 5 star rating. VRBO needs to be more up front in requiring owners to include the type of climate controls the rental unit contains. Rentals not capable of maintaining a 70 F temp and humidity control should have that noted upfront in the property description. Overall the unit was clean and well equipped. Kitchen well equipped, bathroom and shower clean, beds and furniture comfortable. All appliances worked well.

Wonderful Condo

We loved our stay here! The condo was clean and tidy and had all the beach gear we needed which was awesome! They had snorkel gear, beach chairs and umbrellas. The location was great and easy to drive to the popular Kaanapali beaches, but there were local places that were walking distance too.

Great evening sunsets and turtle visits

Great comfy condo with all the amenities that we required. Beautiful evening sunsets and the turtles came to the outer ocean wall nightly. Although the unit has no AC we never felt hot with the tropical breeze, ceiling fans and one portable fan. Highly recommend this unit for 2 people.

We certainly enjoyed our time at this property. A little concerned that it did not have air conditioning, but the morning/evening breeze would cool it down nicely. Wish we could have enjoyed the nice pool and grounds more, but the sun did not cooperate!

February in Ka'anapali

We had a very relaxing month in Wendy's condo. Rained a lot this time but Hawaii rain is still nicer than home. Unfortunately we picked the west side this trip because the last 3 we stayed in Kihei yet drove to Lahaina 8 times, so this time figured let's stay near there. Then came the fires 11 months after we booked. Everything about the condo was fine, I just wish the neighbour wouldn't have walked past our bedroom window every morning at 5:15 am hawking and spitting right outside. Woke me every day. Wendy is a wonderful host, even though we had no problems I knew if we did she was there. (one small problem with the tv setup, she answered me right away and figured it out) We didn't like the Keurig so we bought a coffee maker and left it behind for others to enjoy.

We loved staying here. We snuck away from the kids for our 20th anniversary. Loved hearing the waves crashing at night. Loved the location close to all our favorite beaches. Loved the patio closet full of beach chairs, umbrellas and snorkel gear. Wendy is so prompt in communication and helpful. Amazing weekend!

About the host

Hosted by Wendy Hibbs

Host profile image
Terry and Wendy Hibbs are small business owners from the tiny mountain town of Salida, Colorado. Terry operates a crane company known locally as Terry's Crane & Rigging, and Wendy does all the behind-the-scenes book work for the business. In addition to this, they have also raised a family of 2 girls and 1 boy, and are now proud grandparents of 3 grandchildren! They enjoy travelling, spending time with their children and grandchildren, and running their business.

Why they chose this property

Terry and Wendy Hibbs grew up in the small mountain town of Salida, Colorado. Their first visit to Hawaii was on their honeymoon, and they've been coming back ever since. Their dream of owning property on Maui was finally realized in 2009 when they bought their personal condo at the Hale Ono Loa complex. They fell in love with the location and the community, and in 2013 undertook the venture of purchasing another condo as a vacation rental property. They are still currently living in Salida, but whenever they want to escape the wintry mountains of Colorado, they can be found on Maui, enjoying their own little piece of island paradise!

What makes this property unique

The Hale Ono Loa complex first grabbed Terry & Wendy's eye on one of their vacation trips to Maui with their family. It was located in such a quaint, quiet little area, it gave them the feeling of home. The beautiful ocean view and the gentle crashing of the waves on the shore contributed to the serene, peaceful escape they sought when visiting Hawaii. The convenient location of the property to multiple beaches, various local amenities, and the island town of Lahaina sealed the deal for them, and is what makes this property so ideal for everyone's dream island vacation!
