The directions to the condo from the airport were easy. This condo is absolutely gorgeous and has all the amenities of home. We enjoyed having breakfast on the lanai each morning. We saw several sea turtles each day. Beautiful views of the island and ocean. We could easily walk to the general store and the dock from the condo.

It was a great place with awesome view. The master bedroom shower head on the ceiling needs to be replaced it shoots water on to floor so we never used that one. Would highly recommend this unit.

Quiet comfortable condo

Excellent location and central to many activities. The accommodations were comfortable except the smaller room which had a slightly uncomfortable mattress according to my adult daughter and son—law. The views were spectacular. We saw turtles right off the balcony.

Great for girls trip

This place is absolute paradise. Loved laying in bed and listening to the ocean. Also loved having our own personal lanai with views of the ocean with table and chairs where we could sit and have our coffee in the morning and evening meals. Four girlfriends stayed on this trip, all over 60. It was a great location to drive to everything, not far from the airport and not far from shopping and restaurants. Totally convenient and totally awesome. Exactly as listed. No complaints. We had the best time.

Amazing Maalaea

This property did not disappoint! Beautiful oceanfront exactly as advertised. We watched turtles just feet away from sun up to sundown. We also enjoyed seeing monk seals in the bay. Also amazing that this condo is walking distance to extensive beaches that went for miles. Love this place!

Maalaea gem

The photos don’t do this place justice. It was perfect! Clean, comfortable, and had everything you need to cook, grill by the pool or enjoy the beach. You can walk to aquarium, shops and dining and easy to get to most places on the island. It was truly a gem! Thank you!

Great Vacation Experience

Very quiet 4th floor condo with spectacular ocean view. You can hear the relaxing sound of the surf crashing on the shoreline, if you leave the sliding glass lanai door open. Full kitchen with all dishes and full size washer and dryer. Cable TV in every room. Short drive to many great restaurants, beaches, and places to shop. Walking distance to the Maui Aquarium, Starbucks, Carl's Jr, Circle K, Phillips 76, and several restaurants by the harbor.

Fantastic Location

The owner was very helpful and responded in a timely manner. The unit has everything one would need especially a washer and dryer. I would have given 5 stars all around but one room owner stated there was an issue with the air conditioning unit. I utilized both ceiling fans which helped some. Also only one lamp worked in the room and no light on ceiling fan. Overall fantastic place and phenomenal location. I loved waking up to the sound of the waves and watching the sunrise and set daily.

Can’t go wrong

This is our second stay at this beautiful condo and cannot say enough positive things. Our for first stay was in March 2020……two weeks before the pandemic lockdown. We were so impressed by this unit that we promised ourselves when we returned for a visit to beautiful Maui this would be our “GO TO” condo. You cannot go wrong if you decide to stay here. Susan the owner makes like the process so smooth and is very accommodating/responsive to your needs. Condo is centrally located, fifteen to thirty minutes to the west/north side, east side and the south side…….with the exception of Hana and Haleakala. Like we said, this condo is highly recommended.

Pure Heaven!

The condominium and hosts deserve five stars plus. The view is spectacular. An added treat was seeing the sea turtles from our balcony. The condominium is beautifully and tastefully decorated. We ate and shopped at the nearby restaurants and shops, which were within walking distance and so convenient. We walked to the swimming/walking beach once, however, we couldn’t wait to get back to the condominium. The hosts were always quick to respond. Our only regret is that we didn’t stay a night or two longer! If we ever go back, this is where we will stay, hands down.

Maui Classic 2024

This was our sixth time in Maui and as usual it was relaxing and enjoyable. We came for the basketball tournament, UNC plays every 4th year, and totally get caught up in the small gym experience, you are right there with the players, coaches and refs. Every day in Maui is different. We have done most of the outdoor adventures and as my wife and I turned 80 we went to the aquarium, hiked in the national park, went for lunch at the Kapulua Plantation House, found Coconuts’ fish tacos (a number of times). The small pool and veranda at our VRBO unit at Lauloa in Maalaea was just terrific and we totally enjoyed our books and relaxation there. We thank all involved, particularly the property owners, with our VRBO vacation.

Surprisingly nice

The complex is well run and clean. The room looks right onto the water and we could see whales from our room. The biggest surprise was a small beach on the property that is maybe 100 yards from the room. At sunset about 10 sea turtles would beach themselves for sleeping. We watched the creatures almost every night. A real bonus. The only draw back is there are only a couple of places to dine at within a reasonable walk. We did a Costco run and we cooked a bunch of meals in the room. Good value and a winner.

Amazing views!

The property is amazing-located on a dead end with several other condos. The pool seems small at first, but there were multiple days when we had the pool to ourselves, and on days we didn’t there may have been 3-4 others at the pool. It’s very quiet, which was a huge plus for us. After exploring the island and being in crowds, it was nice to come back to a quiet and relaxing area. Speaking of the area- don’t let this quiet little secluded spot fool you. There is a harbor, Maui Ocean Center, Maalaea Harbor Shops, a General Store that serves breakfast/lunch and has great smoothies, and at least 3 restaurants- all within a very short walking distance. On the other end of the road there’s a park with a beach that is also a short walking distance. I walked to both daily- the shops sometimes 2-3 times a day. You can even walk the grass to the shops which makes it even quicker (great for bringing back Shave ice and fresh cookies from Hula Cookies). The unit is perfect! We saw sea turtles daily and a few eels. The waves were very rough, but we enjoyed watching the experts snorkeling and fishing. You can walk to the rocks below and view turtles closer in the water, or just view from the room. You can hear the waves and the winds and it’s very relaxing. The owner thought of everything, and we had no issues or concerns. It’s a great condo-centrally located so exploring the island was easy. This is a very safe area and we wouldn’t hesitate to rent again. Thank you!
