The good: location is excellent, close to the beach, tennis courts, pool, very well maintained open grassy areas for kids to play. Area is excellent, close to many stores, restaurants, other beaches. Parking was easy, check in was a breeze. The condo staff was excellent, especially during the tsunami evacuation that occurred during our stay. Layout was great!The not so good: honestly felt a little catfished by this condo. We arrived and very quickly noticed the curtains water logged and dated, sliding glass door we had to clean and grease so it would open and shut, missing one of the couches pictured. The internet didnât work for over half our trip. When we reached out to the owner, they came across to me ⊠a little annoyed.. but did get fixed. As at least another person stated, the kitchen is poorly equipped, no batteries in some of the remotes, knives were brutally dull, at least three of the drawers kept falling out. It may seem silly but I was annoyed the condo came with maybe a set of eight or ten cutlery? Which meant daily dishwashing after each meal. I feel like they set the condo up and havenât done much upkeep. The condo sits next to the tennis courts and there are no rackets, there was just one extra blanket for a three room condo. There were no laundry pods, few very cleaning supplies, no vacuum. Iâll remember most of this trip the amount of time I spent sweeping since there was no easy way to clean the floors. A few minor changes and it would shine even more.
Beautiful condo! We enjoyed our stay. Short walk to the beach and saw turtles on our walks. Kitchen is equipped with pans, plates, bowls, casserole dishes. Itâs clean and well kept. 5 of us stayed for 7 nights. We had to do laundry to keep up with towels. They do have beach chairs but 2 of the 5 were broken. Not the owners fault. We enjoyed the pool and hot tub on the property. If you book this prepare to fall in love with the place.
Overall, the place was wonderful. It was just the four of us in the endâmy husband and I, along with our two young kids, ages 5 and 7. We had originally booked the larger unit (3 bedroom) because Grandpa was supposed to join us, and it would have been absolutely perfect with him there.The pros: Being able to walk right out onto the lawn. We loved having a king bed in the primary bedroom, a well-equipped kitchen, and the AC units all worked great. The laundry also functioned perfectly. There was an umbrella available to use, there were some fun kid activities for the kids (football, volleyball/soccer). The location is great for morning walks on the beach and the grass area is fabulous. There was always enough parking as well. Pool was clean.The cons (though they wouldnât stop us from coming back): The drapes mentioned in previous reviews were still a bit of a hassle. Luckily, I brought clothes pins and was able to make it work. The screen door still sticks, and one of the showers off the bunk room is just okay, but it functions fine. There were five chairs, but only four were usable, and to be honest, theyâre probably nearing the end of their lifespan. Two of the rooms have slider doors and there is no additional lock mechanism, such as a simple pvc pipe or anything. With young kids and being on the bottom floor that was a concern. Random notes worth mentioning: I looked up nearby restaurants before our arrival, and while it said they were walkable, there really aren't any
A fabulous trip in the best unit in the whole complex in my opinion if you stay at my Sunset, youâve got to get on the ground floor. We had the best time Iâd say the unit was a little less clean than I had expected but other than that, everything was great we absolutely loved our trip.
Our family of 7 (ages 18-80) enjoyed 9 days in this lovely condo. The location of this corner unit is perfect. Itâs a 30 second walk to the ocean or the pool. Itâs located within the Maui Sunset resort. There were many free activities (beach chairs, tennis, shuffle board, putting green) and items available to rent (paddle boards, canoes). Overall a great experience!
Several minor items that would have made the stay Excellent. Sliding glass door needs attention. We waxed and got all the sand out of the tracks. No can opener. Ice maker worked but would not dispense ice. No batteries in most remotes. Shower curtain in master needs replacing. Knives are very dull (as in would not cut anything easily) These are all inexpensive items that one would expect to work when paying the price they charge. It is a very nice condo and worked well for our family of 7. The only thing that might cost a bit is a safe in the master. Most condos these days do have a safe. We never felt safe leaving our valuables in the room.I did send the hosts this list but have never heard back from them.
Great location, great amenities, would stay here again!
My family of five, including three teenagers, thoroughly enjoyed our stay for just over a week. Sleeping spaces were as described, beds were comfortable and clean. Darker curtains would have been nice in the 2nd and 3rd bedrooms, but all rooms had ceiling fans and great ACs. One bathroom per bedroom was very appreciated. Living area was comfortable with large kitchen, lots of dishes and utensils (knives need sharpening, hard to cut our pineapple!). Prime Video and Netflix available on the TV. In-suite washer and dryer were great.
We didn't use the beach chairs as they were a little too well-loved, but the patio furniture looked brand new and was amazing for morning coffees. The ground floor unit is fantastic for access to the pool and tennis courts. We brought pickleball paddles and had no issues getting onto the tennis courts, or took advantage of the short walk down the beach to the busier pickleball courts. Note that if you bring kids, there is no "throwing" (balls, frisbees, etc) in the pool...this is awesome if you're looking for a relaxing suntanning session, but our 12 year old son hated it.
The owners were prompt in answering questions, and allowed us a late checkout (for a fee) to accommodate our late flight.
We would stay here again, Mahalo for a wonderful week!
The stay was great, but washer was not in working condition for our 6 day stay, and the place is ok but a little dated. Very clean and perfect corner for the beach and everything.We also had to buy toilet paper because they only provided 6 rolls for 7 people for 6 days. Hard time with the front door locking also, with key pad on it.
This was the ideal place for our family for 7 nights. Ground floor was so nice to walk directly into the grass just steps away from the coast where people gather to watch the sunset every night. The condo itself is family friendly with a well stocked kitchen, washer/dryer, grills and a pool. This was our first time on Maui and weâd definitely stay here again.
The condo was large and as described. The location was very perfect with lovely grounds and pool. However, the condo could use some major maintenance. It is run down in a lot of ways- the shower curtain rod fell down multiple times, the sinks were all plugged, no plug for the tub (which was annoying with 3 small kids who needed baths), screens with many holes/rips, curtains
Total misrepresentation of condo condition Vs. realityâŠ
The ad for this condo was a complete misrepresentation of the reality of how dirty, poorly maintained, and sparsely stocked it actually wasâŠ.
Let me start by saying the condo looked nothing like the pictures and was absolutely filthy. None of us went barefoot inside because our feet would get dirty within minutes of walking around inside, Socks would turn brown within minutes.
We tried for hours to get the washing machine to work â it filled with water but never would drain again, we tried all the cycles, nothing worked. When we texted the owner we got no response until the next day, when they said âgo to the laundromat and then send us the receiptsâ! We thought they would rush a repairman out to help us. No way. And how do you get receipts at a laundromat??
The Master Bedroom was even worse. The drapes would not close completely so people walking by could see in, we could never be undressed except in the bathroom. Not to mention the light streaming in at dawn. Hope youâre an early riser. Lastly, the mattress in the master befroom was hard as a rock.
The sliders leading out to the lawn area are old and hard to open and close. There were no extra blankets, sheets, no extras whatsoever. It is clear the owners really donât care about your experience in your condo. The fixtures, furniture, TVâs, beds, all seem to be the cheapest available. This was not about making it a nice place to stay. I doubt any one ever goes back for a second time.
Really nice property, friendly staff and people.
Super close to a fairy usable beach, warer is shallow with all of it being rock for about 200 yards out except the beach.
Rental of equipment is easy and less expensive than other beach areas.
Most everything was clean and ready for use, found some dirty dishes in the cabinets, and refrigerator water and ice dispenser not working, they do have a Britta water filter but don't know if the filter is clean.
Overall decent stay, tough driving everywhere. Lots of stores close by.
We had a wonderful stay, never a dull moment, this was a corner condo ground floor, beautiful grounds and a minute walk to the ocean. Beautiful sunset every night and itâs always a plus with comfy beds.
We loved this location! The exterior of the property isnât glamorous but our condo unit was awesome and the ocean side of the property is amazing. Itâs magical - this unit is on the end and private. The lawn is meticulous and ir is so awesome to just walk to the water and enjoy the sunset or serene mornings! Itâs calming and not crowded. It feels like a slice of heaven. We loved that this location wasnât in the area of high end resorts. Itâs more authentic but close to go to any other area of the island. We enjoyed the property too with all it has to offer, tennis etc. Our family consisted of 5 young adult kids 17-22 & this was perfect for them! The inside was clean and spacious and worked great for our families needs! We highly recommend this location and unit!
The location is absolutely perfect and the property is exactly as as pictured. The frustrating things were that there is maintenance required. Communication with the owners was good in terms of them responding but they didn't necessarily take care of things, And some things didn't happen promptly. For example we needed more ant bait and they just basically told us to live with it. There were holes in the screens and it took about 6 days for that issue to be addressed. The place is beautifully remodeled but the cabinets have drawers that are broken and doors that are out of adjustment and will fall off if not properly maintained. The shower curtain rod fell down and had to be reinstalled by us three times before the housekeeping staff finally came in and took care of it and at that point they also patched up a door screen for us. That being said none of this would keep us from coming back to this. It's just that if you are going to rent it you should totally be aware of it in case it bothers you. If I'm coming back again I'll literally ask the homeowners if they want to hire me to do the maintenance for them while I am staying there. We like it and it is the ideal unit in this entire complex if you need a three-bedroom! The lawn and pool are impeccably maintained. The beach is beautiful and the complex is very family oriented. There are owners in the complex that have been there for 20, 30, 40, and even 50 years! Virtually everyone was friendly.
This place was amazing! We loved being on the first floor, so the kids could play on the grass right by the condo when they needed to burn off energy. It's at the end of the building too, where it's quiet and you have extra space. We walked down to the beach several times, used the pool and hot tub, and played with the beach volleyball that is in yhe ottoman. I had kids ages 5-17, plus my parents, and we were all comfortable and happy with our stay. There were 6 beach chairs and an umbrella next to the washer if you are wondering what the current state of beach gear is.
The condo was big enough to accommodate our family of 9, with easy access to the beach and pool for the younger kids. Kitchen was well stocked for all of our needs.
