I booked this location over another in the same complex. Echoing other reviews, the AC doesn’t reach the bedroom, but even in July, once the sun goes down, opening all the doors and windows will keep the unit cool. Use the curtains to cover the windows and it’ll also keep the unit cooler.
This complex is older, and there’s a ton of steps. To get to the unit using the elevator, it’s 6-8 steps to the elevator then about 2 sets of 6-8 steps, which adds up at the end of the day. Parking in the lower lot is almost non existent. The pool is good, though there are some missing tiles in the jacuzzi (outside of this owners control).
On the unit itself, there’s a ton of mirrors which make the unit look and feel bigger. The bed in the master is extremely firm. There’s a lot of amenities including snorkel gear, chairs, a cooler. The shower is modern and up to date with a low flow toilet (the plunger is under the sink, in a bag).
There was an issue with the electrical while we were there and the owner/manager was extremely responsive, but there were two different individuals who entered the unit with our consent (maintenance, then electrician). We also notified them that the unit ran out of trash bags and paper towels. There was no sponge for pre-washing dishes, but there’s a dish washer in unit - so it’s a small issue.

Had a wonderful time!! Perfect location to everything we needed! Comfortable beds and a nice updated bathroom also had a great breeze. The only con is that when it rains the sliding door to the lanai leaks and the floors get wet..also the doors to the washer and dryer are a little flimsy and difficult to open and close. But overall a great property for sure!!! Would stay here again. Mahalo

We enjoyed our stay very much. Property included nice amenities and owners kept essential beach supplies which was much appreciated. Only drawback was parking, the guest area often did not have any open spots.
4.7
The location was perfect. Very close to the beach, walkable distance. Condo was clean. We enjoyed our stay.

Poorly managed property. The AC had been off when we arrived. It was 85 degrees inside and the little wall unit in the living room could not cool the place below 80 degrees by the time we wanted to sleep. Even with the windows open and fans going as suggested, it was not a good night's rest. Simply having the property manager turn the AC on in preparation for guests arrival would have made this a wonderful stay.

The location is great. There isn't easy access to the actual condo. There is an elevator, but then a few sets of stairs to carry your luggage up. The actual condo is very dated. You have what you need and that's about it. We had to buy toilet paper and paper towels because we had two rolls for an entire 6 night stay with four people. The sheets have little balls all over them from being so old and washed so much. Very old coffee maker, showerhead, etc. So, like I said, just okay.

The condo is as pictured in the description.
Highlights:
Excellent location: in walking distance of many restaurants/coffee shops, across the street from a beautiful snorkeling beach.
View: partially blocked ocean view from the porch.
Amenities: parking was easy and close. Clean, updated pool/hot tub and grill area. Owner was quickly responsive when internet needed to be reset.
Interior: comfortable beds, updated kitchen. Washer/dryer in condo. A/C works well after getting it started for about an hour.
There was minimal snorkeling gear to use in the condo closet, but there is a place to rent gear in front of the building. Did include 4 beach chairs, umbrella. Coolers are also in closet. Bring your own ice packs.
Bathroom could use an update, but had everything we needed including hair dryer and plenty of towels.
Kitchen was updated and clean. Double up on trash bags or buy your own sturdier bags for trash cans when you go shopping.
We would definitely stay here again and enjoyed our first trip to Hawaii!

4.7
knew from listing and the reviews that unit could use updating, but the price is better than the units in this complex that have been updated,
1 There are elevators but this complex has an unusual structure where each "floor" has at least 2 levels - so elevator can take you to 4th floor but then you zig zag around and go up 2-3 sets of about 8-10 steps each. So if you have trouble with steps or can't manage luggage even for those few steps, it will be an issue
2 Finding the unit is tricky. We made sure to get there in daylight. It is VERY helpful to access it for the first time from the lower parking area as the elevators there take you to the right part of the building complex for you to weave around and up the couple extra short sets of stairs to the unit.
3 Unit could use updating, but they had all we needed for cooking, laundry (including detergent), beach towels and some beach gear
4 If you are prone to being hot, the AC situation will frustrate you. We were there in May and the highs were in the 80's. It helps to close the drapes for the afternoon, but even then the living area ends up being cool while loft and bedroom are very warm. Directing the fan in the hall toward the bedroom helped and all the ceiling fans
5 All the signs for quiet make it seem like normally noisy kids would not be welcome at pool
6 EXCELLENT location we waked for lots of things
Would recommend if ok with stairs and being a little hot

I loved my stay here. The property was just a small walking distance to the beach and many shops/restaurants. Beautiful view from the lanai, property was nice and clean, exactly as listed. Overall, great experience! Would stay here again :)

Very comfy apartment in good location steps away from beaches, food, and shops. Pool and hot tub were great nearby plazas had all the food and supplies you need for daily life. Was a great place to explore the area by foot and car. Only issues was lots of stairs to get down to and up from street level (there is an elevator but still a good amount of stairs to get to it/the apt). Wasn't an issue for us but could be for mobility challenged folks. A/C in the unit was great but the upstairs loft got a bit hot at the end of the day and took a while to cool. We had one day of an intense storm and some water came in through the patio door under the floor but the owner apologized for it and said not to worry, said they're fixing the problem, and it didn't really affect our stay. Beach chairs, umbrellas, and towels included which was nice. Swam with turtles and had great snorkeling in the beaches across the street and just down the road, rented boogie boards and rode the waves, enjoyed sunsets on the beach 3 min walk down the road. Overall loved our trip and the place was really nice and a good value.

The condo is perfectly located, short walks to the beach, shops, and restaurants. Nice kitchen, good enough space for us 5.
Very convenient to have a washer and dryer in the condo. The AC was strong enough for the unit, we really enjoy our stay here.
The view from the balcony is great!

Although not on the beach the view from the 4th floor lanai was beautiful while drinking my coffee. Overall we had a great time and was very reasonably affordable.
4.7
Great location across from a great beach with view of the mountain and ocean. Walking distance from many restaurants and shops.

My friend and I stayed 4 nights in March.
Pros;
- Good location close to beaches, ABC store and restaurants
- Had beach chairs and towels/ washer & dryer
- Good view from lanai and the place was spacious for two of us.
- Condo has pool & jacuzzi
- The value, good price for one room and a loft
Cons;
- If you want to go snorkling, you'd better bring or buy the gears since all snorkling gears were being worn out.
Only one set of large fins but I needed a small set.
- I read review the unit had portable cooler bags/icebox, boogie boards but there weren't anymore. It'd have been good to have.
- Unit's location is not somewhat easy to access. (Specially because my friend has some difficult to walk)
- Old dust several places, housekeeper is not doing a good job
Our major problem - the unit was so HOT when we checked in. The thermo in the unit showed 93 degree but felt over 100 specially the loft. We turned on A/C and fans and had to leave the unit ASAP because so hot. When we returned and afterwards were okay once we figured out to manage A/C and fans.
Wish the house keeper turned A/C on before the guest check in. This is a suggestion.
Overall, we enjoyed this place!
4.7
Condo has everything you need, the view is fantastic. The complex has lots of rules about noise and not having fun in the pool area but we still had a great time. The beach is a one minute walk down the road and its amazing.
Check in process was very simple and easy and the owners are very quick to respond if you need to reach them.

We had a wonderful first time in Maui staying at Silvana’s condo. We worked through a hiccup in check in easily as she was very responsive. Would definitely stay here again.
4.7
Quiet. Good neighborhood. Nice, clean accommodations. Just difficult to get a stroller and luggage to, as there is no way to avoid several flights of stairs.
4.7
Unit was dirty when we arrived and over 100 degrees, Loft was over 100 degrees and unusable since landlord refused to provide even a FAN! Had to sleep everyone in family room every other rooms too hot!! Landlord told us to go buy fans and thats the way it was. Then was charged $300 for "damages that was not reported correctly by housekeeping, for moving a single mattress form loft to family room were someone could sleep after becoming sick from heat exhaustion in loft!!! Very bad service and unfair and untrue damage fee adding insult to injury!!!

My family and I had a truly wonderful stay at this condo(early July), it was a great size and the large loft was perfect for our two teenage daughters to have their own space. The bed in the primary bedroom was very comfortable it would have been lovely to have an a/c in the room but we managed with the extra fan we found in the unit. The a/c in the living room cooled the rest of the unit quite nicelybut the loft remained a tad warm. I noticed another loft unit had blinds on the upper windows, it would be nice if this unit had them. Very convenient to have beach chairs and some other equipment to use, also very handy that there are cooler bags/ice packs for taking food on the go. There is salt/pepper, coffee filters and a nice array of cooking spices, also more than enough pots/pans and dishes etc. The view from the large lanai is beautiful and we enjoyed our morning coffee and evening cocktail out there. The location is fantastic Kam 1 beach is literally a 90 second walk down the street(Kam 2&3 a few minutes away), many restaurant options and shopping within a 2-10 minute walk. There is a great ABC store just around the corner that has lots of prepared food items and a lot of fruits/veggies. The condo is in a great central location in Kihei close to everything you might need. Kalama Park is couple minutes drive and there are many great restaurant options in the area, grocery stores just a few minutes drive also.
As mentioned in other reviews it was difficult to find the unit when we arrived as it was dark, the buildings all have a strange series of up and down seemingly random staircases so it is quite confusing especially in the dark while trying to be quiet. (Don't let this deter you from booking though as it's a great place, just be prepared). We did not find the elevator until the day before we left as we were dropped off at the main entrance by the pool so continued using that route in and out. It was quite funny but we thought it was probably best that we had used the stairs the whole time after eating many cinnamon buns from The Cinnamon Roll Place(YUM) haha!
It's a very clean and quiet complex with a very nice and clean pool that was lovely to cool off in after watching the sunset each night. Silvana was lovely to deal with, she returned messages very quickly and was very patient with me and all of my questions. I would 100% recommend this condo and would stay here again on future visits.

Great location and view!
This was a fantastic condo for our family to stay while in Amauri. Location was very close to beach, restaurants and shops. We walked to dinner every night. Also was close to several excursions we had planned such as kayaking from Makena Landing. The unit was clean but very dated. We definitely didn’t mind since it was clean. The pool was the cleanest pool we have ever seen and nice and deep. My kids loved it.

Great stay
This property was the perfect compromise of location, quality and price. For those who want comfort and good value for money this is an excellent choice. There are a few areas that would benefit from being updated but they do not impact on the stay - and are offset by the amenities that the apartment has. The AC is a little noisy and worked hard to cool the sleeping areas but there are fans in every room that help. The beds are comfortable and there are enough towels for both the beach and the bathroom. There are beach chairs, snorkelling gear and boogie boards and it is a short walk to a great beach. There is a sea view but you are not ON the beach. We did not have any problems parking but, as other people have commented, it is tricky to find the unit in the dark - the complex is a bit of a maze and there are a lot of small flights of stairs (there is an elevator but you still have to be able to go up a few steps to get to the apartment). The unit is in a quiet corner of the complex. We enjoyed our stay immensely and would return again if the opportunity arose.

The main issue we had with the property was it was so hard to find the unit!! We arrived at night and were horribly lost. Important to note this unit is at the front of the building and the main parking lot is at the back of the building. The main floor bedroom also gets quite warm as it doesn't have AC and only has a fan but my friend and I didn't mind the warmth. It would be nice if some condiments were provided such as cooking oil.
Otherwise many good things! The location was super convenient, literally steps from a lovely beach, and popular restaurants. Stocked with towels, beach gear, and kitchen utensils. Great AC that kept the living room cool. Private Lanai. Spacious for 4 adults. Would stay again!

Great location near the beach
The owner is quick to respond. This place worked great for our vacation. It is central to lots of things. It was great to have a kitchen, washer and dryer. They also had boogey boards, beach towels, and chairs available to use. The view from the lanai was great also!

Good condo
Condo was extremely hot the front bedroom never cooled down. Hard to do with a window a/c in the living room.
Ceiling fan in front bedroom has not been dusted in years.
As soon as we turned it on a dust bunny the size of a mouse hit me in the face. Overall clean just needs serious dusting in the other areas. Refrigerator needs replacing as it is old, and handle is broken off. Lots of updates have happened. Keep at it so the whole unit is updated, and it will be fantastic

Amazing unit!
What a delight this unit was! Located just a short walk down to Kam 2 park & beach, there are great little shops & restaurants along the way!
What a delight it was to find out this unit had an ocean view & a view of beautiful Haleakala! The nature sounds coming from the near by fields were so incredible & serene, especially first thing in the morning on the Lanai watching the sunrise!
The unit itself is very kept, seemed to have everything we needed, including beach towels, beach chairs & umbrellas and a few beach toys too!
The kitchen is fully stocked with all necessary items. And makes a great space to cook a quick meal and head out for the day. There is also a small travel cooler for use that was super great to pack snacks and drinks for on the go days.
The full wall of windows creates such a beautiful view! Especially from the loft sleeping area. The back bedroom is spacious, comfortable and dark to allow for quiet mornings.
We figured out that if we closed the curtains and left the AC on low when we took off for the day, when we returned, the house was nice and cool. Without doing that, it was quite uncomfortably warm!
The only thing that was difficult here were the stairs and the fact that there isn't an elevator that brings you all the way to the floor the unit is on. The building is an interesting architectural design. Not sure what they were trying to accomplish 30+ years ago. But once we managed to get ourselves & stuff into the unit, we forgot all about the stairs and such until It was time to leave. Thankfully I had my 24 year old son with us that was super helpful in getting our luggage in & out and to the elevator.
Other than that, which can't be helped, the unit is perfect and super comfortable! And it's a terrific location too! Especially if you want to not rent a car, you can literally walk to lots of places in minutes, the beach, restaurants and shops!
We appreciate this place and had an absolute wonderful time here!
