Liked the location, very central to all the island. Was able to visit all parts of Maui by taking day trips to different locations and used Condo in Kihei as home base. Beach across the street was a big plus as well.

Listing hosts advertised unit as having air conditioning. There was no working AC unit. The vent from the window. Anything could fly inside the apartment. It felt like a hot sauna in the room. Very uncomfortable.
Vrbo needs to preview the previous negative reviews on this listing from other complaints.

I’ll start with the positives about this studio condo stay… its location across from North Kihei beaches is the best thing about this stay. The condo is clean and includes the basic beach outing (chairs, umbrella, towels, cooler) and cooking supplies (kitchen and outdoor grilling). It has cable TV and good WiFi service. There is an onsite laundry facility, bbq grills, pool, tennis court. The negatives are… the room AC unit does not work and the small fan provided is noisy. If you leave the balcony door open, the street noise directly in front of the condo is loud all day/night long. The ceiling fan works, but does not cool entire room well enough. I left the front door and balcony door open when temperature inside became unbearable - for better cross flow. I directed box fan at bed to stay cool at night. This side of beach has high winds daily after 4pm, so beach sand is constantly blowing into condo from open balcony door. I managed to enjoy my stay, but would not have rented this condo if I had known that the AC unit did not work at all and I’d have to leave front and balcony doors open to stay cool. The front door does have a lockable iron gate on it. In summary, if you are fine with knowing these derails, this condo rental is a good value.

We just needed a quick cheap stay for our two day island hop. It was in a safe neighborhood that was close to shops, restaurants and the beach plus free parking. The hot tub is a great plus! On the downsides the bathroom smelled and the tub drained very slow when taking a shower. The shower head couldn’t be moved and the water pressure was poor. We wanted to use the provided cooler but when we went to put our items in it stinked horribly so we just went and bought our own cooler bag. Lastly, the floors were very dirty we had to walk around with socks on since we entered the property. We don’t walk past the door with our shoes even at home so this was very disappointing. Great location and stay for a very short trip if you only need a bed to sleep.

This condo had a great location, comfortable king sized bed and all the basics. The only drawback was that it was a little worn and pillows were not comfortable. Great value.

our stay was less than ideal
pros: location, parking, pool, hot tub, grills, indoor furniture was comfortable, bed was comfortable, air conditioner did work well, fans were nice.
cons: outdoor furniture barely usable, wicker is falling apart needs to be replaced, screen patio door not usable, needs to be replaced, air conditioning put together with duc tape. There were absolute no glasses provided, only small kid's cheap plastic assorted cups, absolutely no bowls, had to eat cereal out of a coffee mug, poor lighting especially for reading or playing a game, on island manager did not get back to use for a full day when we couldn't find the parking sticker (we did find it so it wasn't a problem)

This property needs some love. It doesn’t look like it’s been updated since the 70s.

Small and quaint condo, but amazing location especially for the price! Minor maintenance issue when we were there, owner and property manager were great getting everything taken care of. Book this property and enjoy the beach right across the street.

Stay was good but street out front was loud. Could use some upgrades, but quite comfortable.
10.0 / 10.0
Clean apartment, good mattress, small but functional kitchen. Balcony with ocean view also gets a fair amount of traffic noise, but this part of South Kihei Road isn’t particularly crowded. Lots of beach toys included. Air conditioning wasn’t very effective, but in January this wasn’t a problem. We would use this place again.
4.0 / 10.0
The apartment was very run down. Looks like they took the furniture from Gramma’s attic. Almost no lighting. Two very tiny lamps. Bathroom had old wooden toilet seat that had paint scrapped off of it. Outside wicker table had wicker all broken. Also lanai faced street so it was somewhat noisy at night. The curtain did not shut well enough to block outside light.

Me and my wife loved this apt
It was so cozy
We spent most of the time out of the apt and would only sleep and come back to sleep and to get ready
But we sat on balcony and watch Maui go by
The pool and hot tub was great
The owner was communicative
And also suggested places to go.
We didn't used kitchen but we kept cold drinks in fridge
Anthony also had all the beach gear we needed
Chairs etc..
And the bed was the one of the best beds I slept on as well so awesome
I welcome anyone to come to this apt.
Thank you Anthony mahalo

•easy parking, most of the time I could park directly in front of the stairs leading up to the condo
Cons:

•would’ve liked to have been provided with a mop of some kind to help keep the floors clean during my stay along with other cleaning supplies
•only 1 plastic cup to use in the kitchen
•everything in the kitchen felt a bit dirty/grimy so I had to wash everything before use and I even had to buy a sponge since there were no cleaning products supplied other than dish soap
•laundry room was not working which I was not informed of but the laundromat was close by to drive to and it was very clean to use
•quite a busy road so couldn’t really enjoy the balcony
•checkout was at 11, took the trash out at 10, was automatically locked out, lucked out by asking vacationers next door, took an hour to get in

Our stay in the Condo was a great base to start from to out exploring and then return to. The beach is across the street and a great 2 mile walk along its coastline R/T. A hotel across the street and walking distance has a bar and restaurant for a night out. The owner was very communicative to our needs. The bed is the most amazing comfort ever. Also, there is limited glassware for water and other drinks, so we recommend to bring a package of large plastic cups if you are planning an extended stay, otherwise, you'll be washing the one glass a lot. The pool was a great place to relax at the end of the day. One thing though, there are no laundry facilities on the premises as it is under renovation with no completion time in site. However, there is a laundromat in town, south of the condo, on E. Lipoa St., one street south of Longs on the left side. The cost is eight dollars for one washer and one dryer, but a very clean and efficient place to do laundry. We would highly recommend this place.

Coming from Waikiki, I was so looking forward to the respite of a condo where I could chill, maybe cook a meal, watch some movies. Not here. The only air conditioning was a massively undersized portable unit with a hose exhausting out of the window. It could not keep up and the unit was often unusable because of the heat. Only fan was a ceiling fan which just blows the hot air from the high ceilings down. We went to Walmart and bought sone fans just so we could sleep. When I contacted the owner, his suggestion was to open the windows. This was my first venture into the VRBO world and will be my last. It’s hotels for me from now on. Aside from that, the unit was clean, but well worn. Furniture was pretty banged up. The wicker stuff on the balcony was dry rotten. Great location though.

The unit is small and cozy, across the street from a pretty beach. Restaurants are a 15 min walk away (I suggest Diamond's for an amazing value!).
There is no A/C in the place, except for a portable unit by the patio door; with west-facing patio, the sun shone in most of the afternoon, and that poor thing was fighting a losing battle. I worried it'd be too warm to sleep ... but a strategically aimed box fan really made it all comfy!
The closet contains some beach gear -- it was perfect for what i needed. Highly recommend.
6.0 / 10.0
This location had some pluses. Really close to good shopping and good food. Close to good beaches (including one right across the street) and the hot tub and pool were nice! It was also a great price for Hawaii properties
It had a lot of cons that people should consider when booking…the whole place felt very cheap. The towels were old, and the beach towels had rust spots on them. In addition one of them was the exact same as a resort near by and I believe they came from there. The kitchen stuff was all mismatched, the forks and spoons had nicks (cut my mouth) and there was only 1 bowl in the whole kitchen. The toiletries included didn’t even have enough shampoo for more than 3 days for 2 people and we had to buy our own. The beach equipment was falling apart, and the whole room was visibly dirty/dusty when we arrived.
It is also loved right on the road so traffic can be heard, as well as being second floor and so the sun shone in in the afternoon making it pretty hot. The air conditioner wasn’t ever able to cool it to even 72 degrees.

studio very small and outdated, list as air conditioned however all that was provided was a portable cooling unit that was WAY too small for the area. It was so hot on our arrival that we couldnt sleep and took us 2 days to get the room cool.Very old and outdated looking not welcoming at all. Instructions left in a book on table with incorrect info. Given a laundry room key to a laundry that doesn't operate and then after numerous calls from us told it was the pool key. Very frustrating. Hosts very uncommunicative and hard to get a hold of. Would not use again and definitely not recommend.

Our stay was perfect! It’s right across the street from the beach and it was really convenient for parking. The room had everything we needed: beach towels, an umbrella, and beach chairs. The AC worked great and we loved the outdoor deck area. We had a great time and would happily stay there again!

This was a great location to start each day from. Nice farmer's market just north, and some fabulous beaches to the south (across the street was pretty nice as well). The only bummer was the lack of any beach towels... could've been jacked by previous guests, but we figured there would be some there so we didn't bring any of our own. Overall, I'd consider this a 4.5 star location!

This nice and quaint studio is great for a place to sleep after a full day outdoors. Fully equipped with Beach activities such as boogie boards, beach chairs, coolers, snorkeling gears, beach umbrellas, etc… Would be nice to have supplies of extra towels especially if you’re there for more than 2 days. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

This apartment is situated right in front of main road so it is very noisy(unless you close all windows and turn on air conditioning).
Could use a bit of loving, the bed pillows and bedding are old and used, the apartment is dark, overall 3/5 cleansiness. On the other hand very well equipped kotchen and accessories, snorkelling gear, parasols and coolers for beach, tennis racquets etc.

Our 3 night stay was as expected. The condo is in a convenient location just a short 15 minute drive from Kihei and central to most activities. We appreciated the kitchen and cooked in so we didn't try many of the eating options in Kihei. We also didn't utilize the pool/spa as we usually returned in the evenings tired from our daytime activities. It looked as if parking could get a little full, but we never had troubles finding a spot near the unit.

Nice complex with a great location so close to the water. If water isn’t your thing then it is a pretty simple drive to get to anything that Kihei can offer you. The room is a pretty good size. The closet has the basic beach needs like chairs if that is on your to do list.

It was filthy. The air conditioner was a portable unit that never cooled the condo. It was hard to sleep as it was so hot in the condo. The owner put the access code somewhere where neither us or VRBO could find it. Because of our complaints the owner sent emails telling us to find another
Location to stay as he did not want a bad
Review. To do that would have made us spend an additional $1,000 which we refused to do. This was my 4th stay with VRBO and the others were awesome. This one was not awesome actually it put us under great distress during a time we should have been relaxing and enjoying beautiful Maui. I asked for a 50% refund due to the issues which he adamantly refused. I still believe some of our fee should be reimbursed.

This condo was good. It was a little dirty in the kitchen area. It had good beach chairs, boogie boards, umbrella to use. You could barely see the ocean from the Lanai. It was walking distance to the ocean, but not great walking to shops or restaurants. You’ll definitely need a car. The people were great to work with.

This was an affordable spot to sleep at night. I also used the pool and it was well maintained. The bed was comfortable and I slept well. Good budget option for Maui!
