We had a wonderful stay! The condo was spotless on arrival and was stocked with everything you need to get settled. The bed is comfortable, there is a washer/drier and dishwasher, but the headline is THE VIEW! There is just nothing better than sitting on the balcony looking out over the beautiful blue ocean and listening to the sound of the waves (you can even spot some whales). If you can tear yourself away from the view, the location is perfect for exploring. Sugar Beach is right outside your window, Kihei is a 10 min drive away as is Maalaea harbor (many boat trips leave from here), and you are close to several beaches. Safeway and other shops are nearby. Check in/out was a breeze, and the hosts reached outa couple of times by text to check that everything was going well. 100% recommend this place if you want the ocean view and beachside location!

Great location on our favorite beach! Big lanai with perfect view of the ocean and palm trees. Our first time at this complex, which has a nice big pool but we prefer some of the smaller complexes in the area. A comfortable unit with a newly renovated kitchen which was enjoyable. Suggestions: coffee filters, higher speed internet if an option,

This accommodation is wonderful. Very clean, plenty of amenities, very comfortable, nice air conditioning. Incredible ocean/coastal view. Most of all, we appreciated that the unit is located right on a desirable section of beach. It is also very well-located relative to all of the fun things to do when exploring the island; other coastal towns seem to be further away from many of the island’s main day trips/hikes/destinations.

Sugar Beach 226 is lovely, and we would happily stay there again! The space is well-appointed, beautiful and comfortable, and the lanai is wonderful for watching the crashing waves and the sunset. It’s within 15 minutes of all the shops and restaurants in Kihei as well. Communication with the owners was excellent and any minor issues were handled in very quick fashion. We highly recommend 226!

This condo is very clean and comfortable. The kitchen is well stocked, which made cooking some meals in pleasant. The condo/Lanai has an excellent ocean view and there is a nice beach right in front of the unit. Barbara was very easy to communicate with and answered any questions promptly, including restaurant and activity recommendations on the island. We plan to stay here again!

I've been to Sugar Beach Resort several times over the years. My favorite place to stay. This unit beats them all. Beautifully appointed. Clean and had everything you needed and more. The hosts are so organized and getting around and knowing what to do and how things worked was great. They were very communicative as well. Always prompt with answering queries. We went at the same time as the horrible fires in Lahaina and the upcountry. A dear friend was barely able to escape with her 2 kids and her car. She lost everything. We were so happy to be there to help her. A coincidental miracle for sure. Thanks for providing us a welcoming place to stay.

We had a great time! We've been to the resort many times. We love the location, how close it is to the water and the ocean front rooms. We loved sitting on the Lanai looking at the water and walking the beach. I really appreciated the communication and information from Barbara.

We stayed at Sugar Beach #226 for 4 nights and loved every minute of it. The resort is located in a very convenient location, with epic ocean view. The staff was friendly and attentive, and they made us feel welcomed. The room was spacious, comfortable and clean, with a private lanai overlooking the ocean. We had a wonderful time and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a serene and peaceful Hawaiian getaway.

Clean unit with Great up front Ocean View. Had a smoker next door and it was listed as a non smoking property. We complained to owner and management but nothing was done. Lots of notes all over the inside of the unit: drawers, shower, sliding glass doors, washer/dryer, etc. They really want you to know its their unit and follow their rules and guidelines. That put a little unneeded stress on our stay.

The unit is beautifully updated throughout. All the necessary things are there for you including well stocked kitchen, comfortable bed, beach chairs, etc. Views from the lanai can't beat it. And the owners seemed to really care that you enjoyed your stay in their unit. Would love to come back and stay again.

The location of this property is just perfect for exploring Maui. And Barbara was great on answering any questions. We’ll be back.!

This beautiful condo is centrally located in Kihei, which is close to everything. The condo was very well equipped with everything you need in the kitchen, chairs for sitting out at the beach and beach towels as well. Sitting out on the lanai each morning watching the ocean was my favorite place in the condo. Located on the second floor, it was easy to get to each afternoon when we got back from exploring the island. Will definitely be back!

The condo is in a perfect location to see and do all things on Maui. It is such fun to sit on the lanai and be so close to the ocean. The condo is clean and well equipped with everything you need to enjoy your stay in paradise.

My wife and I have had the pleasure of spending three vacations in this unit - over 24 nights. With travel as challenging as it can be these days, it’s nice to know that you don’t have to worry about having clean, safe, and beautiful lodging waiting for you. A five star rating is well deserved for this property.

Everything was great. Amazing view, great communication with owners. Centrally located for a lot of activities on the island.

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving break at #226, everything was as expected, the condo was well furnished, the check-in was a breeze, the view and location were amazing. The only small nitpick I could possibly make - comparing to other vacation rentals I've stayed at - the kitchen (condiments) was not as well stocked. For example, at other places we've found some combination of a stick of butter, eggs/bread, ketchup, some jellies, maybe a jar of peanut butter, zip lock bags, parchment paper, plastic wrap and aluminum foil. In some cases, I've also found small packs of yogurt and ice cream! All of these make it easy to pack a quick lunch to go or grab a late night bite/snack. Having said that, the kitchen did have a mixer/grinder, lots of varieties of pots and pans, and assortment of plates, bowls, glasses, cutlery, etc. so much appreciated. A pen to write an entry into the guestbook would have also been useful to have. All in all, I would totally stay here again in a heartbeat. The above are just how this vacation home compared to others I've been in, which could have been lacking in other ways.

We sent our pastor & his wife away to Maui for a Sabbatical. We chose SBR as we stayed there in this unit earlier in the year and just loved it. They found it a perfect, relaxing getaway!

Great location, great property, loved hearing waves every day.

The place was immaculate when we arrived, had fresh flowers on the kitchen mantle and they left us a bottle of wine! Not sure if that was by design or because it was our honeymoon. Location was top notch and the beach was a few steps away. Actually from the pictures it seemed like it was further away but it was alot closer than we thought. We attended an orientation from the resort the one morning and won a free excursion! I have no complaints about the condo and Barbara emailed me several times checking in to make sure everything was going ok. I give it 5 stars and if we ever come back we would definitely choose this location again Thank you George and Barbara!

This was a fantastic experience…great location, beautiful condo, and the owners are one of a kind. Their attention to detail and hospitality are really unsurpassed.

We had such a lovely time during our stay in Kihei. The condo was so perfect and had everything we needed. Our favorite thing to do was open up the sliding doors and drink our morning coffee on the lanai.

Lovely location right on the beach! We enjoyed the room as it was very clean and updated. Thank you for a pleasant stay and we highly recommend this property!

My husband and I spent 5 days here and I’ve already recommended it to multiple people. Barbara was very kind and communicative. It’s very clean and you have everything you need! You absolutely can’t beat the view, it’s so relaxing to sit on the patio and listen to the waves and just a few short steps to the beach. I’d definitely come back! Thank you for having us.

This is our second stay in SB 226. We love the property, its amenities and proximity to other island locations. Sugar Beach is a gem that should not be missed. Our balcony looks out directly on the ocean. The unit is comfortable and well maintained. Hosts Barbara and George are good communicators. We give them 5 stars!

This VRBO unit at Sugar Beach Resort was a wonderful experience. The condo was perfectly clean and was furnished with all of the necessities and comforts of home. The lanai offered unobstructed views of Haleakalā, the Molokini crater and the West Maui Mountains. Amazingly, we watched Humpback whales breach as we enjoyed the view from the lanai for both sunrises and colorful sunsets. The proximity of the lanai to the oceanside beach allowed us to also enjoy the relaxing sounds of the the surf. Just a short drive south from the airport in Kahului, the unit was central for our day-trips to the Haleakalā volcano, a journey to Hana, a drive to Lahaina and Kapalua, and to our refreshing visit to the ʻĪao Needle that was just 20 minutes away. It was also central for some great dining. The hosts, Barbara and George, took personal care to ensure our visit and stay in their Maui home met all of our needs and expectations. The visit in one word was 'stunning'. Our stay at this VRBO unit exceeded our expectations in every way. We look forward to a return visit soon.

Perfect experience. Will come back for sure.

My wife and I just completed an 11 night stay (our 2nd visit) to #226 and enjoyed another perfect experience. I've said it before but it can't be overstated - when you work hard all year to plan a major vacation getaway, there's no better feeling than the security of a great lodging experience. This is it - no risk, just the comfort of a well maintained unit with all the supplies and amenities you need. The location? Ideal - a perfect view to an uncrowded beach that is ideal for that sunrise/sunset walk. Thanks again for a great place to call home for our vacation!

We thoroughly enjoyed our Maui vacation. The condo was exactly what we needed! The views from the balcony were amazing and we were able to watch the whales everyday! Only suggestion would be to have a couple extra pillows available. 😉 We are already looking at dates for next year!

Condo was very clean and comfortable. Met all our needs. The view was absolutely beautiful. Watched the whales every day and took relaxing walks on the beach.

Great views of the ocean and wonderful whale watching from the patio. Great centralized location. We had a wonderful stay

This was a perfect location with an amazing view! It was central to every place we wanted to go, and secluded enough to enjoy the lanai and the beachfront. George and Barbara were great hosts and checked in on us from the beginning to the end of the trip. We even got to see a few whales right from our lanai. I would highly recommend them and their property to anyone visiting Maui. Mahalo!

Great location, not crowded. Can see both sunrise and sunset skies. Well equipped. Communication with owners is top-notch. A nice addition would be coffee grounds for the first-morning.
