That is what one of my friends called it and it was fitting. The location is perfect. The resort is warm and welcoming. And the condo is stunning and the views are off the scale. Canât wait to go sgain
Very Comfortable and beautiful spot. The views are incredible. Loved having access to the condiments and kitchen supplies that you don't really want to have to buy for one use on a vacation. Owner was very responsive.
We loved our stay at Mahana! With a napping toddler, it was the perfect place to enjoy relaxing and amazing views right above the ocean! Better than any ground level hotel room. We saw the best sunsets here, saw multiple turtles every day and even whales! There is actually great snorkeling on the beach in front to the left (perfect If you want something low key without a lot of driving and fuss).
The apartment was super comfortable and had everything we needed and Sue was very kind and responsive. Highly recommend!
The only note I would add is that if you have kids (or adults) excited about a pool, the pool here is fairly small and for small kids, it doesnât actually have a shallow end so be ware. But the water was warm and the hot tub was great and no need to worry about the pool when the ocean is right there!
Mahalo!
Sue was an awesome host! She answered all our questions about beach equipment and extras that she had to make our stay super easy. The views are phenomenal!! We watched whales and sea turtles from the window and deck everyday. The condo itself was fully stocked with everything you could need plus lots of extras that meant we didnât need to spend extra money for rentals (sunbrellas, coolers, beach towels, beach chairs etc).
Check in was a breeze. The property and condo are extremely well maintained. We stayed with our 3 kids (9, 11 &13) and had plenty of space for all of us. There is a parking lot of food trucks just down the street that make dining with lots of options super convenient. We wish we had booked 2 weeks instead of 1!!
This was by far the best vrbo experience we have had. Sue was absolutely amazing and made sure our vacation was perfect.
The views from the condo are absolutely breath taking. We could see whales, turtles and dolphins all from the condo window. We were all so comfortable in the beds/couch, and Sue has literally thought of everything we could have possibly needed.
I canât not recommend it enough, and would give it more than 5/5 stars!! We can not wait to book again.
Incredible location, right on edge of beach. Amazing views especially the whale sightings every morning. Food trucks in nearby park are amazing, especially the Vietnamese one. Condo is modern and well appointed. Lovely gift basket with gifts to take home. Also appreciated the mineral sunscreen that guests had left. The only issues we had were minor. Although one doesnât come to Hawaii to watch TV, we did find the instructions missing a step, we couldnât watch broadcast TV from living room. Also the water pressure, especially in second bedroom was often low. But really an enjoyable stay. FYI, many restaurants in Maui are booked weeks or even months in advanced so you may need to book early. Boardwalk is great!
Sue was incredible to work with! The room and views were even more amazing than the pictures! Location was fantastic, so many nearby conveniences and great beaches! Was plenty of room for our family of 5 adults.
This a very great condo that is very well stocked with an amazing view. Sue is a great host and very easy to get in touch with. The condo is right on the ocean and to wake up to that view worth every penny!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this elegant condo! It is exactly like the photos with amazing views, comfortable living spaces and air conditioning. Great location! Easy access to beaches, boardwalk, restaurants and stores. Halfway to Lahaina and Kapalua. Mahalo!
The property is pictured accurately, we had everything we needed! The grills at poolside are spotless and we used them regularly. The host Sue is absolutely amazing, we had a one tiny piece of advice that we needed for the lanai doors (make sure they are shut all the way) for the air to work seamlessly and Sue responded immediately. Effortless check in and check out, all the key codes and car tag info are given with check in. The views are incredible in this unit. We had a perfect stay!
It was a great Property and spectacular views me and my family are sad to go and we are already planning the next time to come back sue was great and overall great experience it pretty much everything you needed for a vacation rental and the the views and the area is the icing on the cakes
Absolutely the most amazing sunsets every night with fantastic views of the islands off of Maui! Just steps from the boardwalk without all the traffic running in front of the condo unit. So nice to feel like a private beach and an easy walk to all the action! Pool and hot tub were nice too. Would stay here again upon a return visit!
Best condo ever. It is even better than the pictures! The condo and especially the kitchen, is well stocked.
And you don't have to leave the condo beach to snorkel and see turtles up close.
The views from the lanai were amazing -we saw turtles and a seal! The condo was comfortable and the kitchen well stocked. Sue was great to communicate with too! Mahalo! Can't wait to come back!
The pictures do not lie. The ocean views from this clean and comfortable property are spectacular. We enjoyed watching whales, turtles, dolphins and even mongoose from the lanai. The Mahana resort is exceptionally well kept including the pool, tennis court and grills. The kitchen was well equipped and made it easy to cook. We appreciated the additional touches such as the binoculars and beach equipment. Parking is easy and shopping/restaurants close by.
Just a FYI. The oceanfront bedroom bathroom shower requires a step up and a big step down. There is a handrail however an unsteady guest or one with mobility issues should use the other shower.
The property and the amenities were amazing. The location allowed very easy access to everything we
The property and the amenities were amazing.The location allowed very easy access to everything we wanted to do. If we make it back to Maui I would like to rent this unit again
Loved this condo. Very clean, always felt safe and very convenient. Condo provided everything we needed and more. Very well stocked kitchen. Enjoyed the boardwalk, sunsets and most of all watching whales from lanai every day!
My son's good friend, Ryan, is helping me manage the condo and will be the primary point of contact,

"I grew up in Boise, Idaho, and fell in love with Maui's laid-back, open, and friendly attitude. I now live on-island part-time in my own little piece of paradise. Please feel free to reach out with any questions you might have about the condo or area, I'm happy to help. Mahalo"
The Mahana is about as close to the ocean as it gets, and the condo has direct ocean and West Maui mountain views. You can watch the sunrise over the mountains and set over the ocean each day. A private gate from The Mahana provides easy access to the boardwalk, which goes for miles and leads to the Kaanapali Beach resort area. Take a short walk on the boardwalk or the beach to Dukeâs restaurant next door or one of the nearby resorts for fine dining and entertainment. There is direct ocean access and excellent snorkeling. The beach size varies greatly with the tides and season.
