About this apartment rental
Breathtaking 180 degree panoramic ocean views from the kitchen, living area, master and guest bedrooms. Lounge on the lanai while taking in Maui's beautiful tranquil beauty. Enjoy walking or running along miles of white sandy beach, or swimming with the turtles in the ocean.
Walk to the Maui Ocean Center (a favorite Hawaiian attraction). If you like to snorkel, scuba dive, snuba, or sport fishing, then take one of the several excursions that leave the harbor daily. The sunset dinner cruise is always a great romantic way to start the evening.
There is so much to do within walking distance and even more with Maalaea being centrally located, it makes for the best Maui vacation experience.

Great condo centrally located in Maui with beautiful ocean view. This condo has everything you could need and more! It is truly home away from home with washer dryer dishwasher, fully equipped kitchen, lanai in front of the ocean, a/c, snorkeling equipment, beach towels, umbrella, cooler, etc. A quiet area.

My friend and I really enjoyed our stay. Tanci is easy to work with, a great communicator and quickly responded to any questions I had. The property has a fantastic view and is close to the harbor so very convenient for walking and excursions. The unit was so well equipped so we never wanted for anything. It was such a great experience. We would definitely stay here again.

Hands down our best stay ever!!! We loved the location, we loved the apartment, we loved the views, and we loved the amenities inside the apartment. The owner, Tanci was super responsive and helped us every time we reached out to her. If you are looking for an amazing place to wind down, relax and simply enjoy, look no further!!

We stayed in this condo because we generally prefer to stay away from the resort towns. We like staying in houses/condos in smaller towns. The house was well stocked and the market was a quick drive. The views from this condo were wonderful and the breeze kept us cool. We dipped in the pool or walked (2 minutes) to nearby beach and the Ocean Center. We were there during the Maui fires but we were safe and maintained communication with the host. The condo was better than the pictures and perfect for our family.

Love our stay in this condo. Beautiful view of the ocean right from each room of the house. The owner, Tanci was so responsive when we had questions. The condo was well stocked with everything. Love the location as its quite central location in Maui

Perfect location for exploring the island, beautiful view and stocked with everything you could possibly want!

This condo was everything we wanted - views of the ocean from every room and the lanai, a nice pool with ocean view, well-stocked, updated, central location on Maui. Good communication from host. The area is not in a hotbed of tourist activity (a bonus in my opinion) and there’s no beach out front, but there’s beach access down the street, and an easy drive to many other stellar Maui beaches. I would definitely book this condo if we visit Maui again.

Our stay here was amazing and we would highly recommend it for anyone!
The property was roomy, decorated beautifully, and meticulously maintained. We were blown away how the owner stocked the home with virtually every amenity that might be needed. Also, when I had a question about something, Tanci's responses were fast and extremely helpful. I've stayed at many VRBO properties and she was, by far, the most caring in doing whatever she could to ensure her customers enjoyed their stay.
Finally, the view from the balcony was simply amazing and the location of the property was a great balance of being close to everything yet still peaceful and quiet.
My wife and I, and our two teens, simply had a wonderful time!

It was everything we hoped it would be. And more! The property was in the perfect location. And just as described in listing. I our case, It was 15-20 from everything we wanted to do. Except Hana of course. Lol. Plus we had turtles to greet us every morning. WHEN we come back to Maui, we hope the listing is available. The list of things to do given by the wonderful host, we're spot on. Highly recommend this property. Wish we could have stayed more days. Mahalo!

From my last-minute booking until the time we checked out, everything was perfect. The condo is amazingly well appointed with even items to play outside stocked and ready for you and your family to use. It made it easier when you're thinking about, "where am I going to rent that mask and snorkel from so I can go see the fish?" ... just look right in the closet and it's there, along with beach chairs and everything else. I've never stayed in a VRBO / vacation rental that ever went to so much thought about what their guests may need, but this property definitely does! Oh, and don't forget the BOOK of information that the owner has compiled for you about things to do in the area, it's expansive and very well organized, it made it easy to answer the question, "what do you want to do today?", even though our plans were already packed pretty tight there were loads of wonderful suggestions. I almost forgot, you have to check out the view, it's incredible! Facing southeast you get the beautiful morning sunrises and in the afternoon you have the view of the southern / eastern coastlines of Maui and also Molokini Crater without the sun blaring in your face. Final note, if you are staying at the property in the future, please say hello to our sea turtle buddies for us! Every day from 3 to 5 in the afternoon we would sit on the lanai, enjoy an afternoon cocktail, and watch the sea turtles as they came in close to enjoy the kelp buffet growing from the rocks in the water directly in front of the condo's balcony ... it was an amazing sight!

Every year in October, my best friend and I go somewhere for her birthday. Tanci was an amazing host & was very easy to reach with any questions we had. The views from the condo are breathtaking and falling asleep to the sounds of the waves was so peaceful. We wanted to see turtles and there were always a bunch right outside of the condo by the rocks every afternoon!
The condo is the best stocked rental I’ve ever stayed in. The closet in the guest room has everything you need for snorkeling or beach days including coolers, beach towels and chairs. The kitchen was well stocked with a coffee pot, blender, tons of dishes, Ziploc bags & wine stopper! :)
We love our stay here and if we ever return, we will be staying here!

The condo was perfect for our group. The location is convenient to to both Kihei and Lahaina. We particularly enjoyed sitting on the lenai watching the waves roll in and enjoying the breeze. Would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful Ocean Front Views
This condo has beautiful ocean views that you can see from every room. We enjoyed listening to the ocean waves. The location of this condo is very central- about 15 minutes to Kihei or the airport. The condo is also nicely stocked with supplies. A nice beach supply was available that includes chairs, towels, umbrellas, coolers, toys and more. There was a nice TV with plenty of movies to watch (which we didn't use because we were on vacation). There are plenty of board games and books to use as well. Most importantly Traci is very easy to communicate with and is very accommodating. We highly recommend this condo!

Beautiful condo with a great ocean view!

Our stay here was fantastic!!
This property had wonderful panoramic views of ocean. We loved sitting on the lanai watching sunrise and sunset as well as drinking our coffee each morning. The location was perfect for us as it was centrally located on island and took no more than a half hour each direction for activities we wanted to drive to. Property was well stocked with whatever we needed. We loved that host had beach chairs, towels, boogie boards, and cooler to use. Would definitely stay here again.

You couldn’t ask for a better location and panoramic view from a property on the island. It’s centrally located next to Mahalaea Harbor. The aquarium is within walking distance. You can drive 30 minutes in any direction…Lahaina to the north, Paia to the east or Kihea/Wialea to the south. The place is well equipped. Can see turtles from the room within a short distance. Not a beach place but close enough to drive. Definitely recommend.

The Best!
We have been to Maui many times, but I think this was the best. From reserving the condo to checking out, nothing could have been better. Tanci is easy to work with and very accommodating. The condo is in good condition, well cared for and is stocked better than any other we have experienced. There are all the kitchen utensils/appliances you could want/need, plenty of Kleenex, toilet paper, paper towels, napkins, detergent, hand soap, shower/bath soap, dishwasher soap, condo cleaning supplies, towels, and beach equipment. The area is quiet and in a good location for getting around the island. The views are fantastic, just beautiful! I would definitely stay here again!

Everything was perfect - especially the location. It could have easily slept two couples but with just the two of us, it was even more spacious. The pictures don’t do it justice. Even as tired as we were when we got in, it took our breath away. The view is unlike anything we’ve ever experienced.
On top of that Tanci has the place well stocked with everything you will need to have the perfect day at the beach. Everything from beach chairs, umbrellas, beach towels and sunscreen.
It’s furnished perfectly for times when you just want to relax and listen to the waves.
We will definitely stay here again.

The view from this condo was amazing. The pool was also wonderful for us with our daughter it was often empty so we could have a lot of family time there. The condo was well stocked and the owner was very responsive and helpful. I would recommend this place for sure.

Very Clean and Smack in the Middle
If you want easy access to either side of the island or to make a quick trip to Costco to get reasonably priced groceries and cheaper gas, this is a great middle ground. The condo has a great view of the ocean, spacious bedrooms and upgraded kitchen and bathrooms. The owner also made herself easily available via text should we have any questions. It was a relaxing vacation.

We had a fabulous time staying in this condo! Fantastic views and soothing ocean sounds as you fall asleep. :)

We stayed in this condo for 11 days. There are many places to stay in Maui but this location is so quiet and peaceful. If you enjoy the sound of the ocean, this is the place for you. It felt like a very peaceful retreat.
The unit was very clean. There is a beautiful view from the guest bedroom, master bedroom and main room. The furniture is comfortable. This unit is very well equipped and had everything that we needed -. Great beach supplies (wagon, beach towels, chairs, cooler and more), every kitchen gadget needed. Everything made our visit so comfortable.
Sometimes it's the small things that make a condo wonderful. For example, the water pressure in the shower was amazing, there were tissues supplied (a must for those with allergies and sinus issues), and an ice maker in the refrigerator/freezer.
We spent hours sitting on the deck and watching the turtles. We saw more turtles here than we saw on our snorkeling trip.
Tanci was a very responsive owner and terrific to work with.
After 1 1/2 years of being trapped indoors with the pandemic, this vacation in Maui was much needed and this condo enhanced the wonderful experience. I highly recommend this condo.

Maui in August
My husband, daughter and I just spent 4 nights at this wonderful oceanfront condo in Maui. Everything is as described and it is probably the best stocked condo we have ever stayed at. My favorite thing was waking up in the morning, sitting out on the balcony watching the sun come up and feeling the warm breeze while eating breakfast and the late afternoons counting the sea turtles right out front. I highly recommend staying here. It's clean, comfortable, and very conveniently located and Tanci was great to work with.
