THIS CONDO IS SIMPLY ONE OF THE BEST IN THIS METICULOUSLY MAINTAINED DEVELOPMENT
We have just finished extensive re-modeling, including new 18x18 Italian floor tile throughout, new kitchen and bath cabinets with granite countertops, and brand new teak plantation style furniture.
Our home away from home is located on the third floor, and has expansive ocean views from the bedroom and living room lanais. Our unit also faces the beautiful INTERIOR of the complex and/or overlooks the well manicured tropical landscaping and pool area (versus many other units overlooking the exterior and/or the mountain view/parking lot area).
Our condo is located in the Kauhale Makai Resort, and is also known as Village by the Sea. Our address is 938 South Kihei Road, #328, Kihei, Maui, Hawaii, and we are on the ocean side of Kihei Road. Our unit comfortably sleeps four with a brand new serta king size bed with luxurious 600 thread count sheets, and queen size futon in the living room.
Our condo complex features a manned lobby, concierge service for booking your outings, elevators, coin operated laundry rooms on every floor, newly remodeled pool area plus a kiddie pool and Jacuzzi, gas fireplaces adjacent to the pool, a putting green, a volley ball court, and shuffleboard. We also have the most incredible ocean side tennis courts immediately adjacent to our complex. And we have broadband high speed internet (the fastest speed on the island).
We are a 20 minute drive from Maui – Kahului Airport. We are 2 minutes from downtown Kihei with grocery stores, restaurants, and shopping aplenty. We are within 5 minutes of the world famous Kamaole I, II, and III beaches. And we are within 10 minutes of beautiful Wailea and the upscale 'Shops at Wailea' shopping center.
Maui is world famous for its beaches, and you will find that you can trek from the beach in front of our unit endlessly along the coastline.
We have an activity director in our lobby, which can assist you in booking endless fun, including: luaus, whale watching tours, sailing, horseback riding, snorkeling, golf, biking down a volcano, wine tasting, fishing, jet skiing, windsurfing, surfing, etc…, etc…, etc…
We take pride in our home away from home and hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
Aloha and welcome,
Jim and Debbie, owners since 1983

Enjoyed 5 days in the apartment with our kids. They liked the pool. Central location, all parts of Maui easily to reach. Great view to the sea.

The property has all you need for your vacation. Ice cold central air, and the owner was very cooperative with my request. Convenient parking, and great ocean view with stunning sunset. Great place for a family of 4. I will definitely be back. Thanks Jim.

Our experience with the host who managed the place was rude and lied. He stated that he emailed us the door combination several time but no emails was never received. Complained that we woke him up when we call him for the door combination.
Place need to fix the patio door. It was off track and hard to open. Screen door was broken. Patio rail was loose on the bottom and wasn’t bolted. Very hazard.
Water was leaking underneath the toilet and bathroom floor was all wet. Cleaning person knew about this water leaking but we were never informed.
Top of the frig was dirty and nasty. Not enough storage containers.
Pool was closed for construction which the host never informed us.
In our experience this place could have been better if these issues would have been fixed before we arrived and the host’s attitude could been more polite. Too bad this page can’t attached pictures to show because I took pictures of the things that needed to be fixed. Hope these issues would be fixed before the next visitors check in to this place.

We decided on Kihei because we were visiting with friends who lived there. The location of the condo was perfect. It was right down the road from Maui Gardens food trucks, Da Kitchen and Izakaya Genbe - I would suggest trying all. The condo was very clean and spacious. We didn’t even need to turn on the air at all- due to the breeze and patio! We live in Florida, so that is amazing for March. We drank our coffee and tea out there. We took daily 3 mile walks right out the back and down the beach. Our tour guide picked up us right in front for the Halakelah sunrise tour. We loved it! I would highly recommend staying here. We even saw whales right from the beach in back! Great location, clean and great communication with Jim.

Property was clean and had a beautiful view. My only recommendation would be to improve beach chairs. We enjoyed our stay very much and would book with this property again.

The property was exactly as described on VRBO. Its proximity to the ocean was wonderful, a short walk over nice grass to the ocean. The location of the property is within a few miles of grocery shopping and restaurants. We found some very good ones and some not so very good ones. Condo was fully stocked with pots and pans. There was a laundry facility right outside the unit, and as long as you are familiar with phone apps, it works perfectly.
The main thing we missed in check in was that you absolutely cannot check in before 3 PM. Our plane arrives early around 10 and we were not able to gain access until three. Other than that, things went just as planned.

Nice, easy place to stay. Thoughtful amenities were provided like beach chairs, cooler, and clothes basket for laundry. Great that you can walk directly across a green space to the beach.
Relaxing, spacious lanai with a view of West Maui and the bay. I enjoyed sitting there in mornings listening to the many birds around.
Would have loved to be able to walk to the nearby shopping center and food trucks rather than drive. If you’re also hoping for that, just note the main road has no sidewalk or useful shoulder the whole way so it was an unpleasant walk. But that’s pretty typical of Maui, so not a big negative.

We enjoyed a relaxing time at Village by the Sea. The one bedroom was a perfect size for the two of us.
The location, overlooking the grassy park, with the ocean beyond was very peaceful. The unit has a nice lanai to enjoy the view.
We were able to find everything we needed in the small kitchen, for meal preparation.
All the furnishings were comfortable, including the king bed and the sofa. An ottoman would be good for the livingroom.
The bathroom has a nice shower, and we were especially happy with the large plush bath towels supplied. If a remodel is coming up, I believe a higher toilet would be a welcome item.
As we enjoy reading, in the early evening, brighter lighting would be beneficial in the livingroom and bedroom lamps.
The items mentioned above do not take away from what is a great vacation rental.

We stayed in a well maintained, quiet, condo complex in Kihei. The unit was as advertised with great views. The owner has equipped the unit with everything you would need for a great stay.
Hope to return in the future,

Overall we really enjoyed our stay! The condo had almost everything we needed, the location was pretty good and it was very quiet. My only complaints, and I say this very loosely because it really did not hinder our stay but would’ve been nice, one of the three beach chairs and umbrella was broken and the beach directly outside the condo was pretty rocky. Again, nothing that really made a hue difference but could be nice added bonuses! Of course there’s not changing the beach ;)
Outside of that it’s very quiet, the pool is clean and normally not very busy. We enjoyed coffee and breakfast on the balcony every morning as well! Very easy check in process, plenty of parking and close enough to town/sandy beaches but far enough away we felt relaxed. Would likely stay again!
