This Beautiful completely remodeled condo in Kihei Bay Vista complex is located across the street from the Humpback Whale Museum and historic Kulepolepo Beach. This beach is ideal for children as the water is generally calm. The Kihei Canoe Club also houses their outrigger canoes on this beach and often you can contact them to participate in some of their activities, not to mention that you can see some of the most AMAZING sunsets there as well! You can see and hear the ocean from our lanai, as well as see majestic Haleakala peeking over the rooftops...and you can see beautiful Kahalawai (West Maui Mountains from the bedroom window as well.
The pool/jacuzzi and BBQ area is located directly in front of our unit at the very bottom of the stairs. Kihei Bay Vista also offers free parking for quests, and a small putting green on the beautifully kept lawn. There are only 60 units in the complex; so it's peaceful and quiet...a perfect tropical retreat!!
We are also close to shopping and dining. Safeway, Outback, and Starbucks are located only 5 minutes away, along with other great local eateries and markets. The complex is also close to all the main thoroughfares on Maui. We are only 10-15 minutes away from the airport and the bus stop is right in front of the complex. Many of our favorite places are just minutes away!!
Ma'alea Harbor and the Aquarium are a 5 minute drive. Wailea and our fav beach, Makena (known by locals as Big Beach) is only 15 - 20 minutes away; as is Lahaina, Ka'anapali Beach and the Maui Swap meet (A MUST!!) Upcountry and the famed Ulupalakua Ranch is close at hand also. While there, you can also stop in at the winery and partake in tasting some fabulous Maui wine and enjoying the beautiful country there. Or how about a tour to visit Iao Valley and Na Wai Eha (the 4 waters) to soak up a bit of culture and learn about what makes Maui so special? All these places and attractions are close by.

My wife and I have been staying at vacation rentals for many, many years. While most have been very good, we have never felt as at home as we did in this condo.
To say it was well supplied is a major understatement. Everything we could have imagined was supplied - and then some. The condo was incredibly clean in side and outside on the lanai. The appliances all worked very well, the AC was good and there were even extra floor fans in the bedroom closet if needed.
The location was also a major plus. Right across the street is a beautiful sandy beach which never had many people there are all. It practically felt like a private beach. Every evening we would take in the sunsets and watch the sea turtles come in.
The entire complex was also immaculately cared for. The pool and hot tub were super clean, the grounds were well maintained and everything around the property was well cared for.
We loved this property so much that we have already booked our next trip back there. While Maui is a beautiful island, having a place as nice as this to stay at made the vacation that much better.
Thank you so much to Ken and Gabrielle for sharing your home with us. We look forward to our next visit there.
Mahalo!

Loves:
The lanai in the morning is a great spot for coffee and breakfast.
The access to the perfect kids beach right across the street
The carpet!
The pool and jacuzzi both close but also very clean. Pool area was quiet despite being in front of and below condo.
Jacuzzi is HOT!
How the condo/lanai faces the palm trees and foliage. It gives you that lovely tropic vibe despite not seeing the beach. Also the shows and sounds of birds.
Owners were very communicative!
No over the top check out process!
Besides a sofa there is a nice reclining chair! I spend so much time scrolling units and if I see either the rattan furniture or a tiny sofa all alone I scroll past, regardless of price!
Didn’t love so much but wouldn’t stop me from renting again:
The washing machine is a bit temperamental with the door (and I promise we didn’t overload it!)
No ac in the bedroom - honestly I was fine, but my husband was stressed the first couple hours that he wouldn’t be able to sleep without ac. I just took both fans and put on in the hall and one right by the bed and left the fan in the room on.
Again really enjoyed the stay, the condo was comfy and inviting after the beach and I would come back, as well as recommend to others if you’re looking for a quiet place close to the beach… literally less than five minute!

Ken and Gabi’s place was perfect for us for our wonderful week in Maui. Centrally located to great food and activities in Kihei and Wailea and easy to drive to get to the other great parts of the island. Amenities were great and place was very cleanly and we loved the lanai for meals or relaxing. Would recommend their place highly! Thanks Ken and Gabi!

It was a pleasant stay. There is a beach across the street but we ended up going down to Kam II instead. Before sunset you can go across the street and watch the turtles come into the protected area.

I can't say enough great things about our hosts and our accomodations. Every single thing was wonderful. Gabby was so great with communication before and after our stay. I will 100% recommend this property to anyone looking for all the comforts of home in an amazing location. Thank you so much for everything. We will be back!

The condo was so comfortable that we felt like we were home. Everything was just as pictured in the posting. Great amenities and the bbq’s were so convenient. The surprise of the turtles most nights and mornings in the fish pond was an absolute thrill and just across the street! We would absolutely rent this condo again if we come back to Maui

Great simple condo, in a convenient location. They thought of everything as far as amenities and beach supplies offered with the stay. Price was very reasonable, and I enjoyed reading other guest experiences in the notebooks, as well as recommendations for the island. Highly recommend!
