About this apartment rental
This little piece of Maui paradise will make you feel like you are in a home-away-from home! You'll love the amazing ocean view and private lanai where you can enjoy sipping your morning coffee or tea and marvel at the sunsets as you enjoy a cocktail and "pu-pu's".
Our spacious, one bedroom, one bath condo boasts an amazing view of Kaho‘olawe & Molikini from the living room, dining area and kitchen with floor to ceiling glass. Relax on the private lanai and take in the view. The sunsets will take your breath away! You'll find all of the luxuries of home, including clean linens and towels, a fully equipped kitchen and beach items to enjoy. There is a comfy queen bed in the cozy bedroom that has mirrored wardrobe doors. For extra sleeping space, there is a sofa sleeper and air air mattress. The newly remodeled bathroom features beautiful tile and a walk-in shower with a frameless glass panel.
Kihei is on the sunny side of Maui, so there is less rain than the West & North so you can enjoy your outdoor adventures. Our complex, Kihei Ali'i Kai, features a sparkling blue-tiled pool and relaxing Jacuzzi and Sauna, which are an added bonus after your Maui adventures. Take in a game of shuffleboard or pickleball at the courts near the back BBQ area above the rear parking lot. Our unit is a quiet end unit, so you'll be able to take in the serene nights and beautiful mornings as the birds chirp a greeting! You'll love the local feel of Kihei with lots of shops and restaurants just a short walk away. We are located right across from Kamaole I Beach, one of the best white sand beaches on Maui and just steps away from relaxing on the beach or a swim with sea turtles!
You'll have everything you need for a magical Maui vacation!

To start out with, Melissa was a wonderful host and so helpful and responsive with messages. The location of this condo is perfect for literally everything. There are so many places to eat and shop at, plus the beach is just a walk down the street. One of our favorite stops was the gelato shop in the street next to the condos. It’s hard to want to leave the lanai when you can just sit out there all day and watch the sunrise, sunset and just watch the ocean. The washer and dryer are a plus as well. We would absolutely love to stay here again if we are lucky enough to secure dates! Mahalo, Melissa for everything

Beautiful spot with a fantastic balcony view. Minutes walk away from multiple beautiful beaches. Great condo complex as well.

We think that the photos don’t show how great the view was from the lanai: incredible sunset every night with the palm threes and the sea and also a dreamy mystic view of the Haleakala on the left in the morning. We took our morning coffee and prepared our day on the lanai every day.
The place was really clean and also bigger than we thought: quite enought place to let the sofa bed open and the double air mattress in place during the day. Each of my teenagers qas happy to have his own bed.
Very easy acces to a enjoyable beach, little shops and 900 meters from the surf class area.
Well located if you want to go around the Island.
We really recommand it!
Thanks to Melissa!

Was just an overall great location and great condo to stay at. next time in Maui we will stay there again.

We had a great experience staying at Melissa’s condo in Kihei. The place was very clean, spacious and offered a spectacular view of the ocean from a terrific lanai. Shops and restaurants were well within walking distance and the beach even closer. The entire complex was really nice - pool, hot tub and sauna - quiet and very peaceful. Highly recommend this place if you are looking for a place in Kihei area and are looking for some real rest and relaxation.
*kitchen was well stocked with all things necessary to make your own meals
*bathroom was updated and very clean
*parking is easy

Love the location, away from road noise. The condo is spacious and has a view to die for. We spent every morning watching the sunrise over Haleakala, followed by a swim up and back on Kam I Charley Young beach. Great way to start the day! I turned 65 while here. Best birthday, ever!

The condo itself was way prettier in person than in the pictures. The view was great and felt private on the balcony. The only thing was the water filter pitcher broke but the tap water was really good- I usually drink bottle water. There weren’t any Tupperware but we got creative and put plates on top of the bowls for storage. Make sure to bring your own travel soap when you first come. It looks like people leave things there when they leave but you never know. We loved the whole place, and the in unit washer and dryer was so nice and saved time. The atmosphere of the place is really Beachy and Hawaiian. We didn’t use the beach gear you provided but we wanted to. We would come back again for sure. Thanks for having other kitchen supplies such as oil and seasonings and giving us Landry detergent and dishwasher soap.

At first I was disappointed that we were up and away from the beach, but then realized just how peaceful the condo is. With the empty lot next to the building, many times the only things to be heard were birds, and they made it sound like a jungle! We spent many hours out on the lanai relaxing and reading and also had dinner while watching the sunsets. The kitchen has all we needed for our minimal cooking endeavors, and the place was furnished with all we could have needed. The bed was very comfortable and we appreciated the fans. On hot days we could open the front door and the sliding glass door to get a lovely breeze going through the condo to keep it comfortable. Though the pool was close by, there was never enough noise to be a bother. The pool is beautifully tiled and quite private. Several great restaurants are within a short walking distance, as is an ice cream shop. Why drive when you can walk, right? The beach is just across the main street and was never crowded. Almost every day we planned an outing to explore what Maui has to offer, and the condo was located to conveniently head out on our little adventures. Having a washer and dryer in the condo was a plus! If we ever plan another trip to Maui, we'll consider renting this condo again.

Wonderful two weeks
The most remarkable thing about this property's massive Lanai was the feeling of privacy. the architecture of this condo makes it so that you can't see any other buildings from the Lanai, making it feel like you are truly somewhere rural in the middle of nowhere while actually being smack center in the middle of Kihei. Sunsets were beautiful and I spent many days chilling out here.
This condo had everything I needed and beyond. I saw one other review about the unit being old so my expectations were low but after staying I just don't understand how someone could find it to be a problem. The property is maintained very well and everything was clean.
Melissa is an excellent host. There was an issue in my second day where a plumbing construction downstairs broke some pipes up here and I had to leave the unit temporarily.. while that itself was very unfortunate and annoying, it's not the fault of the unit by any means and I was impressed and grateful of how professionally Melissa handled the issue. She responded immediately to my requests and got me a place to stay while the plumbing issue was being resolved.
Internet may intermittently disconnect, but good enough to support working from home as a software engineer (which will be more than enough for most people).

The furnishings in the unit are old and worn out, and should've been replaced a long time ago. The bathroom door paint is beginning to peel from the bottom, the vanity baseboard is cracked and chipping away exposing the particle board beneath. Multiple cracks and peeling paint elsewhere in the bathroom. The round rattan dining table is old and wobbly, making a meal experience challenging. All rattan chair handles are worn out from years of use and appear blackish and grimey. The seat cushions are also worn out and provided no cushioning, so it was uncomfortable to sit for more than 20 minutes. Same for the sofa cushions and they also appeared unwashed or uncleaned for a long time. The throw rugs on the floor are matted from many years of use and looked dirty. The beach chairs have frayed fabric and pockets are torn on both chairs. The boogie board's fabric covering is also torn, its leash missing, and worst it's already cracked in the middle! How did the owner expected the tenants to use it safely? In summary we were extremely disappointed with the condo and it was not worth the money it charged.

This condo is right in the center of some of Kihei’s main conveniences and attractions. It has all the amenities you could need and the lanai has perfect views of the ocean, Molokini, and the foothills of Haleakal.

We stayed for a week in February. The apartment is very comfortable, location is great and the views are amazing!!! We watched whales, birds and sunset right from the balcony. The host was wonderful. Highly recommend.

Great Place! Great Location!
My Wife and I had the pleasure of enjoying Melissa's condo for a couple weeks. Condo complex location is excellent as it is within walking distance to many things you look for when holidaying on the island of Maui. Condo is well equipped with all the beach equipment you can hope for along with all other amenities required if you choose to make your own meals. The ocean view from the lanai is absolutely awesome! The lanai can also be enjoyed from morning to evening as you can see the sun rise and sunset. Highly recommended place to stay while in Maui!

Aloha! I'm actually writing this review as the Owner, who just visited to make improvements to the condo! Just to mention a few fun tidbits, we have... New bed, linens with comforter, window treatments, ceiling fan and lamp in the bedroom; new toaster oven, blender, coffee maker, rug, dish towels, cutting board, knife sharpener and acrylic glasses to use at pool for the kitchen, new rugs and towels for the bathroom, new entry rug and lockset, 2 wood turtle pix and...more! We even ordered new A/C (which takes 6-8 weeks to get to Maui). We hope our current and future guests will appreciate all we do to keep our place nice, comfortable and inviting. Mahalo and Aloha!

Fabulous View!
The view from the lanai is unbeatable. The lanai itself is also wonderful with a great outdoor seating arrangement that we used many times a day. Coffee in the mornings and cocktails in the evening watching the most incredible sunset. The beach is about 1/2 mile from the condo and does have a good sized hill to go up and down.
This condo is not for those that have challenges walking. There are many stairs to climb both up and down with no ramps. There is one elevator that isn't really a help for this condo.
The inside was mostly comfortable but the furniture is dated as well as other things in the unit. That would be my only negative. With some updating, the unit could be 5 star. And, the answer to would I stay thee again, is YES!

Back for another great stay
Great to be back a year later. Home away from home. Still in great shape, with all the basics you would need. Thanks, Melissa for adding two new Bahama beach chairs, which were superb. Pool, BBQs all in good shape, free parking great (have to get in early for the under cover spots).
Hope to be back again next year.

All you need
Perfect spot, quiet, good view, nice lanai, close to everything. Quick walk to Kam I beach, Wailea only 5 minute drive away. Pool, hot tub, 2 bbq's. Condo has cooler, umbrella, grass mat- need to upgrade beach chairs, Snorkel Bob's had best deal 2 for $25/ week for Tommy Bahama chairs. WiFi worked great, comfortable bed and there is pull out sea in living room. Second stay at Alii Kai, and will definitely come back. Thanks, Meliisa. Maholo

Beautiful location!
My husband and I loved our stay here. We have stayed at at least 4 other places at Kihei Alii Kai and this is our favorite. It had a gorgeous view of the ocean from our lanai that we spent many a morning and evening, watching the island wake up and and slip into night. The location is perfect with only a short walk to the beach and coffee places, restaurants and shops in close proximity as well. We would love to stay there again. We can't say enough nice things about this beautiful condo. Thank you!

Perfect little home away from home
Just like living there all the amenities you would want, even a bathroom scale (wisely hidden under the sink because who wants to think of that when on vacation). A smart little unit with wifii, HDMI Digital television, nice view of molokini from the lanai.
You can't beat a condo to save money. Buy groceries and eat in or eat out and take a doggy dish home.
Too many other extras to list them all but we enjoyed having beach towels , umbrellas and even beach chairs.

Nice condo
We liked this condo right from the time we spotted it at the vrbo website. The view was excellent, condo was very quiet, and location was perfect in terms of beaches, shopping, and roads. The condo itself was very well equipped, clean, and functional. The owner communicated very well via email, promptly and helpfully. We definitely recommend this condo.

Excellent condo on a good loction
The condo was well taken care of and the location was great. Kihei might not be the most beautifully planned are in Maui, but it's very convenient and centrally located. The beaches are close and there are plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. The views from the balcony were great and we had breakfast there each morning. Kitchen included everything you might need and the unit was clean and comfortable. Would recommend to friends!

Convenient, Comfortable and Affordable
We loved our visit to Kihei. This condo was well equipped, saving us money on chair, board and umbrella rental-excellent! Walking distance to restaurants, beaches and shaved ice!
The condo has a wonderful ocean view from the lanai. You are looking straight at Molokini! It's not fancy, but we were comfortable and very happy with our stay. The owner is very easy to work with, thanks Melissa!

Home away from home ... In paradise
Great complex, location, condo !!! Very friendly staff and courteous renters. This condo has all that you will need plus an awesome ocean view from sunrise to sunset. The location was superb, you can walk almost anywhere if there for a short stay and the bus system is great ($4 for the day). Definitely we will return to this complex ... Looking for a longer term stay of 3-5 months !!! Mahalo

Roomy condo, great view, fully stocked
Stayed here 4/12-4/15. Excellent condo and great location in Kihei - right next to a shopping plaza with restaurants, souvenirs and snorkel gear rentals. Across the street from Kam I as well! Condo was clean and we were pleasantly surprised to discover boogie boards, beach chairs and coolers in the closetsl! The living area is large and 4 people would have been comfortable if someone was staying in the living room. The bedroom is very quiet for getting sleep as well! The lanai was large (the largest in this area actually) and perfect for breakfasts watching the boats go to Molokini every morning. Melissa the owner is super responsive to any questions before you arrive and had a myriad of suggestions and helpful info for first time visitors to Maui! I would definitely stay here again and recommend this for anyone looking for a great base location to Maui. The condo is not "luxury" - no granite countertops if that's your thing - but it is well kept, clean and a great view. It is on the third floor so that could be challenging for anyone who has difficulty walking up/down stairs - however it suited us just fine and we were at the beach within 3 minutes of leaving our door! Thanks Melissa for a great time in Kihei and we look forward to returning some day.

Gorgeous view! Awesome place.
This was a great unit- we've stayed in a couple others in the building before and found this unit extremely clean and well taken care of.
The view was incredible!!
Melissa was so great to work with and provided us so much helpful information.
I definitely look forward to me next visit!

Awesome Views!
A very clean, quiet condo. It felt like home, very laid back and relaxing. The views are amazing, the photos don't capture it totally. We heard some shore breakers while we were there, so it pretty close to the beach. Owner was very caring and helpful. We will definitely go back here!

Comfortable Family Condo
Comfortable, well equipped condo. Great location to beach, shopping and restaurants. Large deck with amazing water view.
