A quaint Maui resort across the street from the ocean. Incredibly nice folks run the place, and they make you feel like visiting family here at Nona Lani Cottages. Stand-alone cottages are scattered around homey grounds with lovingly maintained fruit trees,...
All these Maui condo units face the ocean, and some are pretty close to the water. Overall, the Kihei Beach Resort units themselves are unremarkable, though a few have been updated. But their proximity to the ocean is excellent. In the 2/2s, the master bedroom is...
Don’t be confused by the name of this Maui condominium; it's not in the town of Ma‘alaea, just nearby. For a typically breezy spot, the landscapers do a great job—the resort looks well-maintained. The Ma‘alaea Surf rooms are comfortable and clean, though some could...
This Maui condo is in windy and dusty north Kihei with access to a wide, sandy beach. The building orientation affords some good views of West Maui at the expense of most full-on ocean views. The pool area doesn’t embrace the ocean like other resorts in the area....
This Maui condo complex in windy, dusty north Kihei has small kitchens and rooms that felt overpriced to us. Ground units A1–A8 have poorest views—which they call ocean view. (We think that is too generous a category for mostly grass and a sliver of water.) The...
This large condo complex is in north Kihei. Views of the coast vary from nice to blocked. If you get an inside courtyard-facing unit, go above the first floor for better views. Most units we saw with the agent we list looked adequate. Walls are thick and deaden...
A great Maui condo location on Keawakapu Beach. Most Hale Hui Kai units are 850 sq. ft. and have a very roomy feel and pleasing layout. The complex is clean and surrounds a pretty atrium. The bedrooms on the atrium side may be noisier and have less privacy. The...
It is truly inconceivable that a Maui hotel can be built at the beach and yet make it feel like you are nowhere near the ocean. Maui Oceanfront Inn manages to do both. In fact, almost all the rooms have no ocean views. The tiny rooms are incredibly cramped. Tiny...
A hard one to classify. The building looks and feels like a hotel, but it’s a condo. Half the rooms, called A rooms, are approx. 604 sq. ft., condo-type 1/1s (meaning they have a kitchen) with excellent views south down the coast. B rooms (210 sq. ft.) are...
