Perfection

I have stayed at several condos and hotels over the last 26 years in Maui, but this one is by far our favorite and THE best. The view is absolutely stunning. The beach is mellow and not overcrowded even in the summer. The pool is great and the grounds immaculate. This unit is the best in the entire complex, even the gate attendant told me so when I first checked in. The beds are so comfortable, we didn’t miss our bed for the first time. The wrap around lanai is so amazing and has an automatic shade that provides shade for outdoor dining. It’s spectacular, the view can’t be beat. We had the most perfect view of the fireworks for the 4th of July and didn’t have to leave the unit! You are walking distance to the Wailea Shopping Center that has the greatest little grocery store (Island Gourmet) to get anything and everything you might need. My daughter is 10, and she loved the reading nook with the incredible view. She also loved the boogie boards and body surfed daily. There are plenty of beach toys, chairs, etc. We spent most of our time on the lanai, and we cannot wait to come back. Is it a splurge? YES. Is it worth it? YES! Am I re-booking for next year? YES!

Stunning ocean views in an unbeatable location

This corner-unit condo offers stunning ocean views and an unbeatable location just steps from the beach, walking path, and pool. The space was spotless and the kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed. The beds were exceptionally comfortable, and we especially enjoyed relaxing on the lanai throughout the day and evenings. We had a fantastic stay and have already booked our return for next year!

Perfect, stunning, relaxing stay in Wailea

The location on the beach, the incredible proximity to the pool, the nearness to the Wailea restaurants and other activities...it was all perfect. I really couldn't believe that the photos provided by the owners on Vrbo could hold up to reality, but they absolutely reflect how amazing the view is from this condo, if not understating it. Everything in the place is upgraded and modern, and functional. It was perfect for what we were looking for,. No doubt, it's pricey, so for us, it's a special occasion situation, but really, seems like anything else now would be a step down.

All about location

The unit has many positives but the most notable is the location. The condo sits about as close to Ulua beach as possible. Literally can be on the beach in a minute. As a result of being so close, the views of the beach and sunsets from 2nd floor lanai/living room are amazing. It’s about a 10 minute walk to the Shops at Wailea and less than 5 minutes from Andaz. The unit is also the closest unit to condo pool by the beach. If you feel like you’re missing out on the full service resort vibe, it’s nice that the Andaz is right next door. You can get access to their pool/daybeds/cabanas through Resort Pass. We had a great time!

The best ever…

The unit was wonderful and furnished with much more than we expected. The kitchen is a chef’s dream, the design is open and comfortable, and we never needed anything you didn’t provide. Of course, the views are exceptional and within walking distance to whatever we needed. Not renting a car was not a problem. We hope to return soon to this same unit or one that offers comparable everything. Many thanks.

We have found our home away from home! As previous owners in Wailea we have been looking for some time for a place to rent. The decor is beautiful and comfortable. The view is spectacular. We already reserved for next year and will be coming back year after year.
