Wow what I can I say, we had the best experience staying in this unit. The sound of the waves crashing at night while laying in bed was probably the highlight. Furniture and decor is just what I would expect from a condo in Maui. They stock the unit with all of your kitchen and household essentials, there is no need to buy anything like this. Upgraded appliances and nice walk in shower. We woke up every morning before sunrise and headed out to the lawn chairs just outside our patio and sat watching the sunrise, so peaceful. Location is perfect, just outside of the main hotel strip in Kaanapali, no need to valet your car and pay for parking every time you leave which is a plus. Pool is sufficient, we didn’t really go on vacation for this though so for us it was perfect for the few times we hung out there. I would rather be in the ocean. Highly suggest breakfast at Slappy Jacks (banana bread French toast or avocado toast) and Castaway Cafe (huevos rancheros or loco moco) while staying there. Our next visit to Maui we will be looking to stay here again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay on Maui. Alicia was wonderful with her communication, the check in and check out process was very smooth. She checked in with us before, during and after, just great. The accommodations were what we expected, clean, all the amenities and more. We really appreciated the beach chairs, towels, cooler, etc... the kitchen was well equipped, plenty of towels, and we grilled outside too. The view was spectacular, and we loved having the beach access next door. The first floor unit helped with our walking disabilities. We would definetly stay again!!!!

We very much enjoyed this location & unit. Perfect place with all the items you need!

Stayed for 6 nights and it was perfect. Great location, quiet at night, beautiful sunsets, nice swimming beach 2 minute walk away. This place has it all. We have stayed in Maui several times and will be staying here again.

My family had a great experience staying at this property. The property was very comfortable, clean and well maintained. This is a ground floor unit right on the beach so our mornings were spent enjoying the views and drinking our coffee and our evenings were spent enjoying the beautiful sunsets. We also rented snorkel gear for the week and we were able to see many fish and turtles right out in front of the unit. This was great location with easy access to many restaurants, shops and the grocery store. Finally, the owners were extremely easy to work with. We highly recommend this property.

What I like about Mahana is that it is a low key resort unlike the mega resorts down the beach where you are competing for space with a thousand other guests. It is also unique because the master bedroom & family room both share beachfront views close to the water. You don’t have an angled view over a central pool and/ or giant lawn. The water is literally about 25 strides out the back of the lanai. My 1-5 rating for what’s is important to me as a guest for this unit: Location = 5 - see above plus close to store, food trucks, “Dukes” for lunch/dinner. Easy drive to Lahaina, Wailers Village, Kaanapali, or Kapalua. Functionality= 4 - sufficient kitchen, well stocke , wifi, TV’s, washer dryer, beach chairs, better quality furniture (wood floors and new furniture separate this unit from most). Bedroom=5. Big slider to Lanai and ocean breeze with sounds of the waves. Decent closet space and drawer space, super plush bed and pillows that were some of the most comfortable I have ever slept on. Bathroom, sink, and shower area = 3.5. I gave it a 3.5 mostly to show that my 5 ratings above are not given out lightly. The bathroom area is 5 on cleanliness but water pressure and shower spray are just average, single sink is not as good as double sink and space is smaller than you will find elsewhere. I think that’s a fair description. Ease of access = 5. Walk straight from parking lot into ground floor unit without going through main lobby, climbing stairs or waiting for elevators. Walk in and out the back lanai to pool or beach. Only concern is if you care about the privacy of seeing people walking in the grass outside your unit. Especially in the bedroom you will want to use the privacy screens. Communication with host= 5. Alicia is great and helped us with every question we had in advance or after we arrived. Thanks for everything.
