About this property

Beautiful Oceanfront Corner Unit

#240 is one of the top 1 bedroom, end unit, rental condominiums at Sugar Beach Resort, which is one of the top resort designations on Maui. Consider staying with us for the following reasons:

1) Oceanfront property - Spectacular views down the southern beach coast, all the way to the pu'u (cinder cone) of Makena. And of course, mind blowing sunsets…

2) End unit - This is an end unit, which is larger than the majority of 1 bedrooms at Sugar Beach Resort. The side window in the living area provides a wonderful view down the shoreline as well as providing light and ventilation. The shower in an end unit also has light and ventilation. A subtle but VERY NICE addition. Also, an end unit does not have public walkway outside the bedroom window. This is very comforting.

3) New owners - Professionally remodeled and beautifully decorated in 2015. Elegantly and casually appointed, with local Hawaiin-inspired artwork and modern appliances and fixtures.

4) 2nd floor unit - Being on the second floor creates a connection to the beach and breaking waves, yet provides the security and privacy of being one floor up. The second floor, at the end, also allows for easy access to the beach or to your car in the parking lot.

5) Sugar Beach Resort - Sugar Beach Resort is on a 4.5 mile long beach where you can play in the water, sun on the beach, watch the whales and observe the local canoe club outrigger canoeing. This highly desired Resort features FREE Parking, FREE High speed internet, FREE Wi-Fi and an on-site place to book vacation activities. Also, right on the property is a local favorite for a sandwich or beer, Dina's Sandwitch (as they promote "Sheer Witchery Sandwitches‏").

Perfect Maui Condo!!

In the perfect location, with easy drives to everything Maui has to offer, this one bedroom condo just steps from a beautiful sandy beach is the perfect getaway. Beautiful balcony overlooks the ocean and the pool is a nice place to lay out and view the ocean. Highly recommend!!

Overall Good

View was amazing. Property was clean but things to know. Needs to spray for bugs, enough said. Be prepared to stop at Walmart as bathroom supplies are minimal. Shower may or may not have a birds nest growing in window. Being kinda picky but this property could be top shelf with a little work. It is definitely a rental with rental type amenities. Area is good for a lot of shopping and dining. Very convenient to airport. Wish there was a 4.5 but didn’t feel like it completely justified a five star. A nice place to stay.

Right on the Money

John's place is amazing and 100% accurate to the description, pictures, and reviews. We were in heaven sitting on the balcony listening to the calming ocean waves, drinking coffee, and watching people mill about the beach. Location is absolutely fantastic and central to many things on West Maui. I will stay here again next time we are able to make it here.

Sugar Beach

This condo is a perfect location, ocean front corner unit with spectacular views in all directions. It is steps to a long sandy beach great for walking. We enjoy the sunsets and watching people swim and snorkel right in front. Canoe clubs are close by and many canoes are out in the mornings. We have been coming to Sugar Beach since 1989 so our vacations have changed over the years. John was the perfect host who was very responsive to a couple of small issues encountered. The unit is tastefully decorated and we hope to rent this one again!

Very reasonable

The bed was amazingly comfortable. The rental very clean, the outside furniture was very basic, with the table rocking a bit. Needs to be clean from the wind dirt but noting really bad. A foot rest for the sofa would be nice and the bathroom shower in need of an update. One of the towels you could smell the bacteria. All of these minor things could be addressed so easily. I would still stay again and recommend this property to others. If you know what to expect then we won't be disappointed. The most important thing when renting is the cleanliness, and the bed and they were both great along with the gorgeous view.

Remarkable View

We were looking for something with direct ocean view and this unit did not disappoint. I could sit on the lanai and stare in awe for hours at a time. Very clean unit. We were well stocked will all the essentials from shampoos to dish soap to laundry detergent. The kitchen is well stocked as well. We got good use of the beach chairs and cooler. Bed is very comfortable and there were several pillows, extra blankets, several towels. If you come to Maui for the ocean view and sunsets, look no further - this is the place to stay at. The trade off is slight longer drives to all the great restaurants Maui has to offer. We prepared a few meals at the condo so it wasnt an issue. I'm sure the shower and toilet area are being considered for a future remodel as it's looking a little tired compared to the rest of the unit but still very functional- just a minor criticism in thinking about what could be better. John was also a great communicator and host. We were so appreciative that he opens up this unit to us as tourists. Mahalo John. Well be back without hesitation!

Incredible Vacation!

This condo is fantastic! This is our 3rd stay in this condo over the last 30 years, and each stay is memorable and special. It's quiet and just steps from the beach. The extra windows on the side of the condo give you a great view all the way down the beach! The condo is beautiful and bright, updated, and very comfortable and clean. The kitchen is fully equipped. The place could not have been more perfect. Truly a home away from home! Sitting on the lanai, having coffee in the morning and cocktails in the evenings, listening to the waves, watching the catamarans, and spotting whales are all pretty spectacular. Walking on the beach in front of the condo is great too, and goes for several miles. Sugar Beach is a great swimming beach, too! We love being in Kihei where you can eat at food trucks or have a nice dinner at a restaurant. There is a very "local" feel in Kihei. It's also great that you are in-between beaches at both ends of the island! The owner is wonderful! He responded to our questions so promptly. He has a true love of his place and he's happy to share. An added bonus - he has beach chairs, a beach umbrella, beach towels, a cooler, and a bluetooth stereo! Thanks for making our 40th anniversary and our 65th birthdays celebration so wonderful!!

Perfect beachfront location

Not all beaches are walkable. Sugar Beach is both walkable and swimable! Beautiful location in Kihei, driveable to everything you want to do and see. We loved having coffee on the lanai and enjoyed a glass of wine to watch the sunset. This is the beach where you go outside your condo and swim without having to drive! We appreciated the beach chairs and beach towels for our use. On site you can rent snorkel equipment and more beach supplies if you want more. Again, this is the best location. The condo is recently remodeled--no popcorn ceiling, beautiful floors and the updated kitchen is great! We had everything we needed, including condiments. John was very communicative and responded to all our questions. This was the much needed vacation we needed.
