Property was in the perfect location. Close to town but away from the hustle and bustle. We could walk right down to the beach and we also had the perfect view right from the living room. I would stay here again and again!
We had a very nice time. Close to eating places and shops. Beautiful view.

This condo was perfect for our family of 5 and had everything we needed. Check-in/checkout was easy. It's a good location on the island for driving to fun activities. Would stay here again!
Very pleasant stay. The location is very nice. Nice and clean pool, ocean view and you can walk to the beach. Kihei is near to the airport and there is everything around you need. The medial hype concerning road to Hana is copletely not understandable for me. To much time for less Entertainment

Good place for the family, despite the place was not properly cleaned and maintained.
Our family of 5 stayed for 12 nights. Pictures match exactly reality. Very clean and well stocked with everything you need. Location is ideal within Kihei but also within the condo complex. We can sit on our Lanai and see the pool and the ocean. Kids could go to the pool on their own and you can keep an eye on them while enjoying the view of the ocean. Communication with the on island rep was excellent. Anything we needed they were able to help us with. We will stay here again!!
Excellent Location with Lots of Room and Accommodations
We loved Launa Kai! This condo was in a great location. Our family used the pool, hot tub, outdoor kitchen and grills several nights while we watched the sunset over the water. Absolutely stunning. The folks are very friendly, we were even serenaded one night by a really lovely woman playing Hawaiian style music.
The condo itself had everything we needed. Beach Towels, bath towels, a few beach chairs and umbrellas. We were sure to use the pineapple cutter when we made Hawaiian burgers on the grill.
It’s a short walk to the ocean from the condo. we saw turtles riding the waves in the evening.
All three bedrooms had working AC and ceiling fans. We Highly recommend this rental.
Great place as advertised with views, spacious lanai and bedrooms with plenty of space for the 6 of us. Location great with ability to have a view and walk out to the ocean (which is why we stayed on that side of the main road). We had an issue with the dryer which was brand new so not their fault and they were quick to try and respond and when it wouldn't work, gave us an appliance credit which was much appreciated. Loved the layout and would recommend updating the peninsula stools which are hard to sit on (and we put small pillows so not a biggee) and would also recommend (as another reviewer commented) a cleaning of the couch and/or cover. Otherwise, super place and would rent again.
This was our second time staying at Luana Kai and we love this property! We love Kihei and find the location perfect for setting out to explore different parts of the island daily. This unit was perfect for our group of 6, though previous reviews are spot on about the lanai and the A/C. The furnishings on the patio could definitely be upgraded. They are both worn and uncomfortable. The A/C unit is loud and blows hot air so that it's uncomfortable for most to sit too close to it. Unfortunately, the unit requires A/C to really cool down so just turning it off isn't necessarily an option. The property manager was excellent. All information and communication provided timely. It was exactly as advertised and you can't beat the location, the quiet and peacefulness of the property, the beach access and a decent pool! Great, especially if you're out and about exploring all the island has to offer!
Overall the property was as advertised. It was very windy which is typical in the area but I'm not sure if it was exacerbated by the layout of the buildings - just something to be aware of. Made it hard to sit on the lanai at times. The main living area was hot but if we left the sliding door open I found it brought dirt (when I wiped the counter the paper towel was brown) but again conditions are very dry so not totally unexpected. The master bedroom didn't get very cool but cool enough to sleep. As someone previously noted, it is BRIGHT in the morning and the birds are LOUD. Not a deal breaker - you're in Hawaii! but I did bring eye covering which helped.
My kids couldn't get enough of the pool! We used the grill there one night. The whole complex is very nice and well kept.
We were there 8/6 - 8/24. (Fires 8/8) Prior to the fires I reached out to our home host and she was super responsive. i.e.- small plumbing issue, she had someone there within the hour. After the fires I didn't want to contact anyone about minor inconveniences.
Overall our stay was lovely and we'd stay here again.

Great location, clean, comfortable and plenty of room for a group of 6!
This unit was exactly as advertised. It was very comfortable for 4 adults and 2 teenagers. The kitchen was well stocked and had enough room for 2 cooks at a time. The lanai was large enough for our group.The view from the unit was great. Our on island host, Lynn Taylor, was very helpful before, during, and after our stay. She responded very quickly to questions and requests.
Our stay was very nice. As others have already stated, the condo was well equipped and the management company host was very responsive. I would definitely stay in this unit again as the location was great, view was very nice and proximity to the beach and public pickleball courts was great. There really was only one drawback and that was the Internet. Fortunately, none of the 6 of us had to work but had we needed to rely on the Spectrum Internet, we would have had a big problem. The host said Spectrum was having Internet problems on the entire island, but inconsistent service for our entire 10 days was inexcusable.
Wonderful space! We really enjoyed sitting on the balcony. The property was wonderful with a very nice pool and hot tub area. We saw several guests use the grills throughout our stay. It is a very short stroll past the pool, across a small park area, to a very nice beach. Very quiet and peaceful, this was a great location for touring the entire island.
Our family enjoyed our stay at this beautiful 3b/3b condo, in Kihei! We loved the property, the pool, beach, and tennis courts! All the nearby restaurants were great, as well. The view from the patio was beautiful! We really enjoyed our time there!
