About this apartment rental

This adorable spacious studio unit can be your special little quiet piece of paradise. Relax and watch the sunset from the Kamaole beach park II, a short walk across the street. Enjoy your own beautifully landscaped private ground floor lanai, and listen to the hawaiian doves in the morning. Do your own barbeque in the evening, and refresh in one of the two pools after a challenging game of tennis. Wonderful restaurants and shopping are all within walking distance.

Kihei Akahi condominium is beautifully landscaped. Our condominium will sleep two to four people. It is decorated Hawaiian style to bring the islands inside with you. Kihei has the best weather of the islands, gentle tropical breezes, an occasional spritz of rain, and the ever so sweet aroma of tropical flowers. Fantastic new kitchen.

The owner, Leilani Gray, was born in Honolulu and lives in Calistoga, California, where she owns the Trailside Inn Bed and Breakfast. She knows the special calling that the islands have, and wants to share that wonderful feeling with you.

Once you have been there you will always want to return. We hope that you will recommend our little piece of paradise to your friends and family, and that you will visit us again and again and again!

We were not disappointed with our stay! Very convenient location, close to several restaurants. Everything was exactly as described., Loved that it was only a 3 minute walk to the beach! No, it wasn’t a fancy place, but it was very comfortable, and very sufficient for our needs. The only thing that would have made it better, is if the washer and dryer would have been in working order. (Lani was very gracious and called someone, but it couldn’t be repaired while we were there.) We highly recommend this budget unit for a vacation in paradise!

Love this location and the owner was easy to communicate with. This property would be perfect for a couple. Had all the outdoor chairs and umbrellas a person could need. The pullout couch is updated and comfy to sleep on. I would stay here again.

Cute little one bedroom with the option of the couch pullout to fit 2 more guests. Nice bathroom with the shower/ toilet separated from the sink/mirror. Perfect for multiple people getting ready. The kitchen was nice but with food places within walkable distance, the fridge mostly served as storage for our yummy left overs and the freezer to keep our drinks cold! In unit washer/dryer was great for when packing up worn beach clothes for the flight back. Check in was easy. Just follow the emailed instructions and you won’t have a problem. Being able to walk from our front door to the beach in a matter of minutes was a great way to catch every sunset! Had a great time in this little getaway spot:-)

Lani is amazing to deal with. Great communication, easy check-in, the condo had everything I needed (except I couldn’t locate the hair dryer). The screen door is off its track, but no big deal, just letting Lani know! LOVED my stay and will be back ASAP!

My husband and I thought this unit as perfect for the two of us! It had all we needed. Came with a few extras that came in handy too. The grounds were very lovely and the staff on site were friendly and courteous and helpful with Aloha - a smile that started our day. We will be staying here again when we return for sure - location was great for night time entertainment, food, and wonderful walks on the beach.

This property is on beautifully maintained grounds with two swimming pools, and walking distance to the beach and many restaurants and stores.

Lovely place with great little amenities. Only negative we experienced was that one of the pillow cases was blood stained (and maybe just went unnoticed). Do yourself a favor and book this place!

I can’t say enough good things about this property owner or her condo. Lani is so prompt in responding to my emails and so good to do business with. Her condo is perfect for our needs. We all know there are bigger, newer, and more expensive condos out there if you want. In our case we have to be conservative and for that Lani’s condo is perfect. It has a great location, it is clean and functional and is close to the beach. What more can you ask? It’s the best value out there! We have already booked for next year and can’t wait to go back!

This is our second time staying here and we loved it again. Everything is clean and organized and there was even a new couch. It’s an easy process to check in and all your beach needs are provided. You can’t beat the location. You’re a two minute walk from the beach and there are lots of great restaurants near by. This was also a good location if you like to snorkel. Cannot recommend this place enough.

We loved staying here! It was perfect for the two of us on our anniversary trip. Very short walk across the street to the beach, central location for other areas of the island. The condo had everything we needed. We loved that beach chairs, beach umbrella, boogie boards, and coolers were available for use. Used them daily. Also convenient to have washer and dryer in unit. Very reasonable price for a nice stay, and we will stay here again if we return to visit Maui. :)

We enjoyed our stay. The location and amenities were excellent, it was nice to have coolers, beach chairs, etc. all available to use. The air conditioning worked well and was quiet, and having a washer and dryer to use was a great help. We hope to return to Maui and would stay here again if it’s available. It was perfect for us.

Worth it, but definitely 3star accomodations

Worth it, but definitely 3star accomodations

Nice very tiny space. Basic accomodations met, but definitely lacking finer touches. Central fan in-op, kitchen sink so loose that it almost came off, bathroom inl need of serious TLC...paint, loose toilet seat and the shower rod rusting away. The furnishings work, but the couch smelled... Way old. All said though, you get what you pay for, and the location was great.

Maui Perfection

Maui Perfection

From the moment we arrived this studio became "our place". We walked each night across the street (a super easy walk) and watched the sunset. We spent 12 days here and have zero complaints! Boogie boards, coolers beach chairs, beach umbrellas, beach towels - ready and waiting. Washer, dryer, kitchen - all awesome. This is not a perfect, brand new, condo. It is a perfectly clean, slightly loved condo. The bed is comfortable, the linens are clean and ready, the place smells good. Don't miss your chance to stay!

Great home base to explore Maui.

Great home base to explore Maui.

My wife and I had a great time staying at Leilani's condo. It was clean, was in a fantastic location, and it was by far the best value on the island we could find. Parts of the condo were a bit dated, but we didn't come to Hawaii to stare at the inside of a condo. We especially appreciated the beach gear (chairs, umbrellas, and towels) and the easy access to the beach (<5min walk). I would certainly stay here again.
