About this apartment rental
1 Bedroom + 1 Sofa bed, 1 Bath Maui Condo that Sleeps 4 - That could be your comfortable & fun home-away-from-home while in Maui!
Welcome to the description of our condo at Wailea Ekahi, a privately owned, beautifully landscaped, condominium community located on Keawakapu Beach in sunny South Maui, Hawaii. The condo complex includes 54 low-rise buildings, with 294 condo units, and is located on 34.5 lush tropical acres near the best of everything Maui has to offer!
Our condo complex is widely known and appreciated for its extensive and beautifully landscaped gardens full of tropical-colored flowers and exotic bird life. Wailea Ekahi residents and guests also enjoy 4 swimming pools, our oceanfront recreation pavilion (with gym), and of course private access to one of the best beaches on the island. Know our condo is truly close to the beach, golf, tennis, restaurants, and shopping – everything you come to the island for.
After a day at the beach, relax on our super comfy sofa, cool down with our in-unit A/C, and watch our 40" Apple TV with free Wi-Fi. Our condo is casual, inviting, and tastefully decorated. You will enjoy the ocean view from the fully equipped kitchen complete with stainless steel appliances and everything else you will need to create your own tasty dining experiences. The kitchen opens directly onto our spacious lanai (deck) which is surrounded by lush tropical landscaping. Your private lanai is a great place to enjoy “happy hour”, dine, catch some rays, or relax and read a book - the choice to dine inside or out is yours!
The master bedroom also offers a serene view with its own private garden lanai. As the owners of this condo, the reason we chose this one is the secluded location and there is no transportation needed or no busy roads to cross for access to the world-famous pristine KEAWAKAPU BEACH. We tried to think of all the things we could to make your stay at our place amazing, so once you arrive you will find everything you need for a day at the beach including beach chairs, umbrellas, a rolling cart to get everything there, and lots of beach towels. The walking path down to the beach is lined by lush, tropical vegetation all meticulously manicured and maintained and Papayas, Mangos, and Bananas are there for your picking when ripe.
Don’t feel like hanging out at the beach that’s okay too. The grounds offer you a choice of 4 pools. Just grab a beach towel and your book and enjoy the views the different pools have to offer. (Don’t forget your sunscreen and your camera)! Feel like just hanging out at the condo - know our lanai offers both sun and shade throughout the day.
We are a quick 30-minute drive from the Kahului Airport in Maui and offer free parking, so the moment you arrive at the Wailea Ekahi complex you will feel like you have walked into a truly Hawaiian island paradise. Again, then it is only a short walk to the beach, pools, barbecues, and coastal trails, through the gardens where you will enjoy the most beautiful sunrises and sunsets day after day.
Looking to spend a day outside the complex? The Shops at Wailea shopping & restaurant complex and the three Championship Wailea golf courses are only a few minute's drive away from our condo too.
Finally, just know we love to host and introduce guests to Maui so if you are traveling with friends be sure and check out our other close condo in the complex to this unit @ VRBO Listing #: 1253814 as we would love to help everyone plan a Maui vacation with friends they'll never forget!

great place with easy access to the beach and wailea village

We had the most perfect stay at Helene and Barry’s condo. Condo is equipped with everything you could need for cooking, relaxation and the beach. Bed is very comfortable and unit has extra pillows, towels etc. Location is perfect; close to beach, resorts and shops. Lastly communication with the hosts was remarkable. They were so quick to help us and answer all questions regarding our stay. Thank you so much for such a great visit!

We stayed in the condo for 2 weeks and loved it.
It is a nice, cozy corner unit in the upper section of the resort. It is very close to the "Quiet" pool (1 of 4 pools) which we enjoyed. Lots of beaches near by to enjoy. The condo is very well equipped. It had a full kitchen, lots of beach towels, beach chairs, & even a wagon to pull the beach items. The owners have made a big effort to ensure that guests are comfortable and enjoy their time in Maui. We will be back! Mahalo

I have stayed at this property before in a different unit and love having the beach access as well as multiple pools to choose from. This unit, though farther from the beach and main (kid friendly) pool, was very clean and comfortable for our stay, perfect for what we needed. The walk to the main pool and beach was no big deal and having a wagon to use was great.
The thing I appreciated the most was how well stocked the condo was for our stay. There were enough paper products, hand soaps, dish soap, cooking oil, spices, etc. for our stay, which doesn't seem like a big deal but there's nothing worse than not having these things when you need them and having to buy a bunch just for a weeks worth of use.
Though not an issue for us, I would say that the barn door for the bathroom is not very private (for noise) and so if you're not fully comfortable with the people you are rooming with this might not be the best place for you. The traffic noise was noticeable when there were obnoxious drivers revving their engines, but I've lived in cities and it was a non-issue for me and my family.
Overall this was a great place to stay and I would stay here again hands down. Kudos to the hosts for a memorable stay!
4.7
Great condo. Only caution is the location of the condo in the complex. It is on the corner of a busy intersection and the traffic noise is present. Also it is a 5+ minute hike up the hill to get from the beach back to the condo. That being said we would stay here again as the location in Wailea is wonderful and the condo itself is good.
4.7
The property was in a great location with wonderful amenities on property. We would definitely stay here again.

Great!

Very nice place to stay and well-equiped kitchen and patio area. Good location to access many beaches by walking or driving. Close to a great quiet pool. A bit of close loud motorcycle and truck noise which ear plugs solved for night time. Would not hesitate to return!
4.7
My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon and it was perfect. A beautiful patio to have our morning coffee, three pools to choose from if the beaches were too windy, and a big home-like space to call our own for the week. This space has everything you would need - towels, beach gear, full kitchen, washer and dryer and a large comfortable bed. Thank you !!

This property had everything we needed to make our stay convenient and comfortable. We had NO issues with anything from owner to property. The unit is clean and spacious and all appliances work perfectly. The property is beautiful and the grounds are breathtaking. The pools are clean and quiet, the beach is not crowded, clean, and has the perfect combination of sand and lava rock areas. If you go early in the morn, you can search for urchin, sea stars, hermit crabs, etc. We even had turtles swimming across our beach during our stay!
The owner had provided beach chairs, umbrella, coolers, and even a wagon for our beach comfort. There are plenty of towels for indoor and outdoor, too. I cannot rave enough about our stay. We will hopefully being staying again soon!

We love this area. Wailea is the best in my opinion. The complex is on the best beach in Maui, Keawakapu. And the complex itself has four pools, the biggest of which has an incredible, massive covered patio area for sitting, with four big gas grills, and entire kitchen. In the evenings families hang out at the pool, cook, grill, and watch the sunset. And you have your own gate right onto the beach. The condo is clean and comfortable. The kitchen is fully outfitted for your needs. The lanai is comfortable and shaded and the spot to relax. And the wifi is fast. There is a smaller pool and two small grills right in front of the lanai. There’s four beach chairs, an umbrella and three coolers to take to the beach. Now the bad. The biggest issue is the location of the condo WITHIN the complex. It’s the farthest away from the main pool and beach access. It’s a long walk. And coming back it’s all uphill. So if you want to go to the beach or spend time at the main pool you’re probably going to drive. The condo only has an A/C in the living room, not in the bedroom. So in order to get cold air back to the bedroom you have to use two fans. But if you close the shutters (no bedroom door) the air doesn’t cool down the bedroom. The condo itself is clean but esthetically it needs some updating and maintenance. The kitchen sink faucet was very loose, the patio slider door screeches and trim fell in the bathroom at night on us. But overall it’s a good basecamp for Maui.
4.7
Overall, a great time! Very loud traffic nearby was the only issue really. Had to set up the fans in a manner as to get cooler air into the bedroom. Would definitely return to this property.

We loved this condo! The hosts are also amazing to deal with and respond very quick to any questions you might have!!

Lovely private pool and beach. Beautiful house and location near the big resorts in wailea. Would definitely stay again.

Mom & Dad of bride last minute decision to crash the elopement on Mokapu Beach. Kids staying at Andaz just South down from condo. Owners extremely responsive and informative. Did not have to inquire about anything as the day before something was needed, an email arrived with answers to all our questions.
We will be back for sure.

The condo was amazing with everything you need inside. Very close to the pool which was perfect for the kids. The location was perfect with everything close by. We were really happy with everything .

This was a perfect location on my favorite beach and close to shopping in kiehi and happy hour at the fairmont. Best of both worlds. Wonderful pool on the beach. Fun club house for cook outs. Long walk up from beach but if needed public parking is by beach.

The condo was as advertised and in a great area to stay on Maui. The condo itself is perfect and the extra amenities like the pool, beach, and grounds were private and well kept. We had a small issue with getting in the one day due to a dead battery, but the manager was quick to fix the situation.
4.7
The property was very nice, but it is too close to a major road, traffic noises early mornings and at night. The view was nice, but also if you wanted to BBQ, you had to walk a distance away in order to do that. Other than that it was nice.
4.7
Great spot for pool and beach access with snorkeling within walking distance. Great walk along beach or path to other beaches nearby. Very relaxing for us after a family trip north in Maui:)
Thank you!
4.7
We really enjoyed our stay at this condo. The pool and pavilion right beside the beach is a great feature.
The walk to the beach is at least 10 minutes up/down the hill, but we were able to do this with two kids. The wagon provided is essential for a family to get to and from the beach.
4.7
We arrived at property and had a very easy entrance to suite and found it to be clean and nice furnishings at first
There were a few things during are stay that I did not think we up to par I brought this up to the owner and they were very appreciative and said they would fix .
This suite does have road noise and is one of the farthest unit from beach which we didn’t know before renting .

My family has stayed at Ekahi 6 times over the past 8 years. There were some changes this time which I will go through below along with unit specific comments without much other comments as space is limited for review.
- it may be that our kid grew from a newborn to a now 8 year old, but we have found the restrictions at the main pool (we don’t go to the quiet pools because they don’t want noise at the other pools) to be non-conducive to anybody other than a newborn or 18+. The only items allowed in the pool are life saving devices (water wings or life jacket) or diving rings. There are no balls, games, or anything else. This has gotten more strict over the years in my opinion.
- we happened to book during “owners week” where owners have meetings at the pool and pavilion and these areas plus main bbq is closed for periods. We were not told until the closures started on Feb 13. Pool and pavilion were closed for large periods from Feb 13-18 which was most of our trip. Guests we spoke to felt like us, that we were inconveniencing the owners by our presence based on how mgmt treated us. We spend lots of time at the pool so value was much lower for us.
- the unit itself is nice enough. No ac in bedroom which wasn’t an issue in winter but could be in summer depending on the person. There is a fan.
- Unit is right by the main roads so you hear loud vehicles at night. If the pricing is reduced to accommodate, this may work for you depending on your circumstances.

A perfect place for a family reunion in 2 condos. Ate dinners by the pool and beach which is very well set up!
4.7
The condo was clean, well equipped, and comfortable. As many others wrote, it's near a somewhat busy intersection, so we kept the windows closed at night to reduce noise. As there is only a mini split AC unit in the living room, we used 2 supplied fans to try and keep the bedroom cool. The bed was large, firm, and very comfortable. The pools, beach, and grounds were very nice, and the view of the many flowers and trees from the Lanai was excellent. We ate most of our meals there. We had a very nice week, but felt the cost (over $4000 Cdn) for the week was quite high for being a fairly long walk from the large pool and beach.
4.7
The construction across the street was annoying for anyone hoping to sleep past 8 but usually the traffic noice will have you awake by 7.
4.7
It was a very laid-back property stocked with a lot of beach-friendly items: boogie boards, beach chair, umbrella, beach towels, etc. We appreciated this! The main lanai is lovely, I spent a lot of time there sipping my coffee and taking in the views.
In the heat of the day it's a long walk to the main complex pool/beach area, but we didn't mind the walk in the early morning or evening (we were here during the hottest time of the year). The main pool area for the complex is beautiful! There's beach access from the pool area and a brand-new pavilion where I spent a lot of time hanging out on the outdoor couches reading in the shade and catching ocean breezes while my 12 year old son ran around. It was a lovely visit, thank you so much for the hospitality!

The Wailea Ekahi property was a great homebase for our family trip to Maui. The huge lawns, beautiful gardens, 3 pools (the 4th, and closest to the unit was closed during our stay), beach pavilion with kitchen, and beach access were exactly what we wanted, and what the 12- and 10-year old enjoyed the most. This unit is on the ground floor, and being able to walk directly out the lanai onto the lawns and gardens made the unit feel more spacious than an upper unit would I think. As some have said, the walk to/from the beach takes about 5-10 minutes (the way home is uphill!) so for very small children it could be arduous, but the wagon that's available in the unit is an excellent touch.
This northern end of Wailea is a nice central location with easy access to Wailea shops and Kehei restaurants and beaches. Of course we stocked up at Costco, and the kitchen facilities in this unit were great for preparing meals all week. We used the ovens and BBQ down at the beach pavilion and the kids loved eating beside the pool so they could jump back in right away :)
We used many of the supplies that were available in the unit - the wagon (everyday!), boogie boards, beach towels, pool noodles, etc.
However, the pullout couch basically cannot be slept on, the mattress is slanted and extremely uncomfortable. The air conditioning unit is in the living room, it doesn't reach the bedroom very well. We used fans to blow the cool air, but we also wanted the bedroom door closed overnight, so the room was quite warm. The barn door for the bathroom does not offer much privacy. Having the sink in the hallway makes it a bit easier for 4 people to share one bathroom.
A light was burnt out, which the handyperson came to fix the same day we texted the property managers. However we also ran out of toilet paper, and when we texted to request more, did not receive it.
Other reviewers have mentioned that traffic noise bothered them, which we did not find. Perhaps if you are used to some traffic at home, it's not as noticeable.
Overall this place worked very well for us, and suited our budget. We knew that being walkable to a beach and pool would be key for us, and this place delivered. Some of the drawbacks I have mentioned did detract slightly from our enjoyment (running out of TP is awkward!) but we had a great vacation and this place was comfortable, safe, clean, and easy. I would recommend it.

Great stay in Wailea
The property was lovely with lush grounds!
I always love staying in Ekahi Village and this condo was great! There was lots of space and it had everything we needed. Our girls trip was awesome and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Shelley answered all our questions right away.
Thank you again.

Lg. Clean condo
The condo was clean, nicely decorated and well stocked. The grounds were lush and tropical. The bed was comfortable. We used the boogie boards, towels, beach chairs, a nice convenience. It’s close to restaurants and shops. We were a little confused by lock box on door molding vs. electric lock behind screen on door, but got in alright. We won’t stay here again due to the road noise in the bedroom, and the longer than expected hike to beach.

Best place ever for our Mother/daughter vacation.
I highly recommend this condo. Literally had everything we needed for our week in Maui. Pretty much only thing that we could have used that was missing were chip clips- lol
I also would suggest driving down to the beach and parking vs walking down (especially if you're a little older like I am. The walk back up the hill back to the condo will kill you)
4.7
We will stay here at Ekahi again. Suite has all you could want. A quick walk to everything and very nice.
If you are a light sleeper then bring ear plugs for Friday and Saturday nights as the cars tend to be loud on the road those nights (the unit is close to the road). We enjoyed the area immensely and the check in process and hosts were very nice. Highly recommend

I've stayed all over Ekahi. This spot is great. It's a hike to the beach but just steps from the upper quiet pool. A very pleasant garden view and access to the grounds right off your lanai. Nice interior layout.

We were excited to be returning to Maui and Ehkahi after two years of the pandemic.
When we opened the door at the property the entire condo reeked of disinfectant. The patio was filthy as was the patio table. There was a mop lying on the patio floor. The sliding screen door is in disrepair as are the bedroom door and laundry doors and cupboard door under the sink. This condo needs some care and attention. Minimum stocked, 2 spoons, no bottle opener etc. We have stayed at 12 plus condos in Ehkahi over the years, this was the worst. Very noisy with traffic. Very overpriced for what you get. We don’t mind paying but the facility should deliver. We could never recommend this condo to anyone. Luckily we only booked a week.
