The house was very nice in its layout & in a great location. It worked well with our 4 couples. First of all the company never responded to an email of basic questions regarding what supplies came with the house. The video that’s forwarded to you is from 2018 and shows a coin operated washer & dryer. The property manager didn’t meet us at the property like he said he would to go over everything. Pool & spa were both cloudy & hadn’t been serviced in a while. The house wasn’t very clean. In fairness seems common in Hawaii. No kitchen towels. (He brought some a few days later) The house hasn’t been maintained very well. There’s a stair railing that’s pulled from the wall at the top of the stairs amongst other things. We called Thomas the manager about the pool & it took 3 days before someone showed up.7 days later the pool was green with algae & cloudy again. We couldn’t get some of the bedroom Tv’s to work. The frig leaks. The bath off the gym doesn’t have a lock on the side door which opens to the backside of a golf course. Didn’t feel comfortable showering without a lock. The ice maker stopped working, Thomas came to look at it, he took the front cover off & left it with all the screws on the floor when he left. We gave him a list of things that need to be repaired at this home. One that’s a real issue if you like the ocean breezes is that there are several missing screens. We could not find a flyswatter at the house or anywhere nearby. If you stay here bring one with you.

The house had five bedrooms which accommodated my group very well. views of the ocean were great and a short walk to the beach. We ate in- all meals and the kitchen was large enough to handle all the chefs! Very nice vacation.

We absolutely LOVED our stay at the Summit Residence and are already planning when we can book it again. The house is absolutely stunning and so spacious. We loved having the pool and hot tub after a day at the beach, the kitchen has everything you need to make your own meals, and it's walking distance (or a 2 min drive) to the beach or the hotels nearby if you want a meal out. Thomas was such an excellent property manager and gave us some great recommendations like going to the local fish market to get fresh fish which we bbq'd at the house for tacos. I honestly have nothing negative to say and part of me wants to keep the house a secret so it's not booked up the next time we go back. Everything about our stay was absolutely perfect and we can't wait to visit again!

We had a wonderful stay in this home. The home is very well appointed but the best was the kindness and attentiveness we received from Thomas who answered all questions. The kids loved the pool and were worn out every day. Rent this house!!!

My 50th birthday gift to myself was to share one of mine and my husband’s favorites places with our parents, our children, and grandchildren. So it was our treat to bring them to Maui!! Due to the devastation on the island, our planned vacation was iffy as the resort we were staying at was cancelling reservations during our travel dates. Needless to say, I was losing hope and nearly cancelled our trip. One week before our travel date, I miraculously stumbled upon Summit Residence after weeks of searching for a place that would accommodate our family of 10 adults and infants. If this doesn’t make you believe in miracles and a reminder that what’s meant to be will always be, Summit Residence did!! Instead of splitting our family up into two villas, we were now all under one roof!! And what a treat it was! The house was absolutely perfect for our family. We loved spending time in the pool together, enjoying the hot tub while we watched the sunset, grilling on the lanai, and all the extras like the pack n’ plays, beach chairs, a fully equipped kitchen, and the fun game room! I learned how to play pool, and my 81 y/o father kicked all of our butts - talk about a pool shark! This home turned my frown upside down! I didn’t miss having to run down early in the morning to put our towels out on the lounge chairs! Steve and Thomas took excellent care of us. They only had one rule - “Have a great time!” Turned out to be the best family vacation I could’ve ever imagined!!

We loved the people, property and Maui! Above our expectations for sure!! Thomas Bullen was awesome! If we needed anything he was there!!

Family vacation

The Summit is an amazing property with every detail well thought out from the artwork, furnishings, beach gear and stocked bathrooms to the wonderful welcome basket! Thomas couldn’t have made the check in and check out process any easier. The location can’t be beat with a short walk to the Whalers Village. It has the best stocked kitchen with any kitchen utensil a cook could possibly need. The soaking tub was phenomenal and all 5 couples in our party thoroughly enjoyed the pool and outdoor patio. When we come back to Maui, we will stay here again!

This is one of the best properties we have experienced. Everything was beautiful and there were happy surprises beyond the listing. Communication with the owner and property manager were stellar. We will be back!

This house was everything we wished for. Beautiful home on the Kaanapali golf course. The pool and hot tub were in use constantly by our group. House was well stocked and also had beach stuff including surf boards, boogie boards, chairs and sand toys. If we needed anything or had concerns we got very quick response. We want to come back!

Would definitely recommend to others.

We rented this beautiful home for a family trip for 8 adults and 2 small children. The management company was very responsive to inquiries prior to arrival and although we arrived very late in the evening, the check in process was smooth and the instructions for getting in and situated were very clear. The house was absolutely perfect for our group and we loved spending time on the lanai and at the pool. Great location near Kaanapali beach and Whalers village, which was easily walkable from the house. We particularly appreciated the availability of a pack and play, wagon and some beach toys for the kids. We look forward to the opportunity to return in the future!

Loved the home and the location was super convenient. Had everything we needed.

We had a great time staying at the Kaanapali Summit Residence! The house was spacious and relaxing, with a wonderful pool deck, game area, fully equipped kitchen, and decor true to the Maui vibe. The proximity to Kaanapali Beach and the nearby hotels, restaurants, and shopping was perfect! The hosts and rental group were also especially accommodating and communicative. We had a great time and would absolutely stay again!

Beautiful property with many features in quiet neighborhood.

This property was exactly how they described it. Perfect for all ages to enjoy. If we had any issues it was taken care of as soon as possible. I would recommend this property if you want a lifetime experience.

Beautiful property. Good location. Check in and check out process seamless. After signing the contract, asking questions via email was a little slow. Better to call directly. Could use better explanations for all the various TV/sound systems.

Views were spectacular! Pool and hot tub were clean and used everyday. Beach and pool toys galore. Clean house and many amenities. Any issues we had, we had prompt responses/fixes. Close to the beach and all the restaurants. Would come again!!

Overall we very much enjoyed our stay, and would definitely stay here again if/when we return. The location was simply phenomenal! The environment the home gives off is very luxurious and yet relaxing at the same time. There were some minor annoyances, but those were not deal breakers for us, as I said we would for sure stay here again! Minor annoyances; The Keurig was sitting on the kitchen counter broken, without any note stating such. Was told a new one would be brought over which never happened. The door to the "Blue" room(the one without it's own bathroom), was not a very private door, and any activity in the kitchen can clearly be heard. It's a really nice room, but due to it's location, it would be nice to have a more private door. The listing is a little deceiving in regards to this bedroom setup and location. We were there for 9 nights, so there were some opportunities for TV time, but setting up the TV's was a bit of a challenge with no instructions found to assist..........as I said, these are not deal-breakers in my opinion, just a little annoying is all! This was a family gathering, and as such we had some unfortunate drama, but the staff was very understanding, and for that I am very grateful. Besides this our Maui adventure would not have been as awesome as it was anywhere else. The Summit Residence was definitely worth the investment!!

Thanks for great family vacation on Maui! We especially enjoyed the downstairs game room.

We absolutely loved staying here! The house is gorgeous, well taken care of and stocked with the basics and more. The location is convenient and the host was so welcoming and helpful. There are multiple master suites and it’s a great property for both adults and kids. We’ll be back for sure! :)

My husband and I rented this house with 4 other couples. Our ages were 53-81, all very young at heart. The house is nice but we don’t feel the website represents it as it is today. In looking at the website to us it appears as if the house is a lot newer then it truly is. Although there are some very nice Hawaiian art and decor the house needs some tender loving care in some respects. The large ice maker was broken, the A/C did not work in one of the bedrooms, the sliding glass doors when shut often would lock thus leaving someone locked outside of the house. They need to be adjusted. The exercise equipment was not the best and an old Kuerig coffee maker broke half way through our trip. Our biggest disappointment was we thought each couple would have their own full bathroom. That was not the case. We found out after we arrived that one of the bedrooms was supposed to use the bathroom outside by the pool area. In the middle of the night asking a senior citizen to walk through a dark house and outside to the pool area to use the bathroom is not a luxury vacation home. Therefore, 2 couples ended up having to share a bathroom. It is advertised that it is in walking distance to shops, restaurants etc, Whalers Village, and yes it is just about a 20 minute walk but the first 2 blocks are very very steep. Half of our group who are very active could make this walk but the other half with bad knees could not handle the steepness coming and going every day, therefore had to drive. Upon arrival the house was somewhat cleaned, but not pristine, especially the kitchen floor. We had asked for the sofa bed to be made up and it was not. Since we arrived around 8pm we could not get ahold of the management company, so we had to compromise our first night and take off a top sheet to one of the other beds being used just so the sofa bed had one sheet. This left one of the king beds with no top sheet. For the positives of this house the management company was very responsive. When I was able to reach them the next day they came over and gave us the sheets we needed. The house was equipped with TP, paper towels, dish washing soap, laundry detergent, trash bags, shampoo, soaps etc all the essentials. A lot of VRBO homes you have to buy all of that. The best part of the house was the pool. It is a nice size pool and the stone turtles in it make it very decorative. We immensely enjoyed the pool area daily!!

The Summit Residence is everything we hoped it would be and more. Clean, beautiful and spacious with tons of amenities—not the least of which is the gorgeous heated pool. It was so relaxing to wake up everyday and go for a long swim. Maui is beautiful with plenty to do and having a fantastic house to return to made each day something special.

Lovely. Spacious. Exceedingly enjoyable.

This house was amazing and perfect for a large group. We had 7 adults and 2 children, ages 6 & 2. It was all we could have asked for and more. After grocery shopping, we really had no reason to leave as we had our own oasis. On the way to the house we received a call the AC in the bottom level was not working. They had already had fans running to keep it cool. They purchased two portable AC's and had them installed right away. We used the pool every day. The property manager and owner were very accessible. They wanted to make sure we had everything we needed and enjoyed our stay. I would recommend this house to anyone looking for a place to house a large number of people. It was perfect in every way!!

Our group of eight, all adult family members, got of to a rough start with no one there to give us an orientation- property mgr. had COVID symptoms. Had a few issues with Wi-Fi and a/c, but Steve, the owner, was very responsive. The home is in a great location and has all the amenities you could want. The kitchen has every tool you would expect to need and the two fridges and commercial ice maker were used extensively. The poolside full bath is not really usable from inside the house, but the remaining 4 1/2 baths were adequate for our 3 couples and two adult siblings. Future guests will not be disappointed. This is a very nice lodging for larger groups that offers many on-site and nearby activities to please everyone in the group. Enjoy…

Trip of a lifetime with 10 family members. The property was beautiful with the layout being perfect with so much family. Close to beach with beautiful pool. Stocked with everything you needed and quick response with any questions or help from staff.

The best way to summarize our stay at the Summit Residence was Fantastic! Everything was as listed in the online information. The home is beautiful, excellent location just north of downtown Lahaina and away from the hustle and bustle of the area and only a 10min walk to the beach. Our family enjoyed many evenings sitting by the pool and watching the sunsets. The house has everything you could possibly want and more. We had nine people in our party and the house is large enough that all of us had plenty of room. Absolutely our best experience renting a house yet. You should have no hesitation about renting this location.

Nice house with lots of common area space. Ohana bedroom with no dedicated shower was an issue as someone had to share. Needed a few more lounge chairs and umbrellas. But overall, had a nice time, location was great and the management was responsive.

We sincerely enjoyed our stay. Great layout for a large group including 8 adults (4 couples). Walking distance to Whalers Village, beach, or an easy quick drive. Close to Lahaina as well for dinners and shops. Quiet street and lots of privacy. Could not have asked for a better stay!

We had a fantastic family trip! Everything about our experience with this property was just what we were looking for. Our children are in their 20’s so it was perfect they all had their own space as well as areas for the whole family to be together. The location is perfect and was conveniently near everything we needed. The homeowner and management team were responsive and easy to work with! We would definitely recommend!

Beautiful house that accommodated all 9 of us with ease! Thomas was the best!! He was always a phone call away if needed. Perfect location for shopping, beaches and restaurants. Beautiful food basket and bouquet of flowers from the owners upon arrival. Would definitely come back. Aloha and mahalo!
