This is our Maui home, a 4th floor penthouse. We recently put in new furniture, carpet and paint. This condo has been a part of our family since it was new in 1974 and we have carefully remodeled it for maximum comfort and enjoyment. There is a new flat screen (4K, HDR) that will give you convenient access to your Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, and other accounts.
The large living area has vaulted ceilings reminiscent of the Hawaiian royalty. We have the most open bathroom areas of any unit in the complex, with built in cabinets and ceiling fans. We have a lighted lanai where we take all our meals and watch the ocean or check out Haleakala crater. We can even watch the whales from there! Kamaole Beach Park III is just across the street, with a wonderful park that has swings and a large grass field for running or flying kites. You can watch the sunset from the Lanai or bring your beverage with you to the beach for an even better view.
When the complex was built, my father, the architect of the complex, had the opportunity to buy any unit he wanted. He chose A-404 as having the best exposure and view, without being right on the street. We believe that, with the remodeling we have done, it is the most comfortable all-around condo there. We have tried to maintain an atmosphere consistent with the islands with our furnishings and artwork.
The master bedroom has direct access to the lanai. It has a king bed, TV, dresser, nightstands and everything you’d expect in your own home. The master bath has plenty of storage and lighting. We even have a rod over the shower/tub to hang snorkel/scuba gear from when washing in the tub.
The second bedroom has a queen bed. The fully remodeled bathroom has more storage, an overhead fan and a shower enclosure. With the Shoji screens stacked to the side, you have a very impressive 'great' room.
The kitchen was completely remodeled in 2021. Ithas all the usual appliances, including the necessary blender for your favorite island drinks. We try to leave the refrigerator stocked with most of the usual condiments you hate to buy for a week or two: mustard, mayo, catsup, salad dressings, etc. Don’t be surprised if someone has left drinks and other non-perishable items for your enjoyment. There is often something in the freezer, too. We encourage you to use them and leave something for the next guests. The condo is “hotel” clean for your arrival and then cleaned up when you leave. We even have a separate filtered water spigot at the sink so you don’t have to buy bottled water!
We have full a sized washer & dryer in the utility closet, along with coolers, beach mats, towels, and everything you need for the beach.
There are three air conditioners, SIX ceiling fans (one in each bedroom, bathroom and kitchen), one large and one small tower fans will keep you comfortable. Try using the fans & opening the windows to get the true island experience.
Enjoy the common pool area, the BBQ with tables and chairs & the covered gazebo at Haleakala Shores.
Walk to restaurants, and shops.

My wife, 17 year-old nephew, and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The condo is very comfortable and had everything we needed. We appreciated that others had left some essentials (a few rolls of toilet paper, paper towels, etc.) and we gratefully returned the favor.
Appliances are new and easy to use. The water filter allowed us to reuse our bottles for the whole week.
Location is fabulous, right across from Kam III and within walking distance of several shopping centers and restaurants.
Overall a wonderful vacation in a lovely condo; we highly recommend.

The condo was clean and well organized allowing us to get into vacation mode upon arrival.
Everything was great! The property manager guy at the pool was a bit rude and the neighbours parking was an issue but the condo itself was fantastic !!

We stayed here for my 50th birthday. Only 3 of us but this place is HUGE! The two bathrooms really helped. The living room was huge also but we never used it. The lanai is the best part of this accommodation. We spent all of our free time out here, planning the days adventures, eating our meals and just relaxing at the end of the day. I would absolutely book this place again. It could easily sleep 6 with the pull out bed.
Activity recommendation: sunrise snorkel tour of Molikini crater. We saw fish and even a shark and then they took us to swim with sea turtles.
Location is Kihei is great. You could absolutely stay here without a car but we went everywhere so a car was needed.

Loved the location of the property across from the beach, close to shops and in a quieter area. Kitchen was equipped for cooking - the community area even had a BBQ that was excellent. Loved having a pool for kids when the beach and waves were too windy or choppy.

We had a fantastic time in Maui using this condo as our home page. It was very clean, updated and across from the beach. Additionally, all the beach gear we needed as right at our fingertips. Can’t wait to go back!

The apartment and owners were great and accommodating. The apartment was very spacious and comfortable. They had beach chairs, body boards, ice chests and a washer and dryer. The beds were also comfortable which is not always easy to find in these rentals. The kitchen was also updated and the a/c units worked great!
The property managers of the facility were the problem. You CAN’T make any type of noise at the pool. Low soft talking only. You CAN’T have any music playing even if it’s low volume and not disruptive. We were excited to stay at a place across from the beach and have a pool. There are also a lot of homeless close by and across the street from the place. The homeless weren’t the issue of the facility but the property managers were.

Great location to walk across the street to the beach. Close to some local restaurants. Easy access without having to go down the main road if you want to skip around and head to Mekena or Turtle town.

Where to begin! This is a beautifully decorated, well stocked condo with a great view! Really enjoyed walking across the street to the beach, yet very little road noise. The beds were comfy and having the beach supplies were awesome! Will definitely book again.

I was impressed by the size and great location of this condo. It was also very well stocked. I would recommend this for a family or even two couples on vacation together. I will definitely be staying here again.

This was my husband and my second time visiting Maui but first time with our 3 teenagers. We looked at a few rentals before landing on this one. This seemed to have the most space and could accommodate a family of five.
The place was a little dated but very clean. The carpet seemed newer which was a plus. The bathrooms and bathroom counters were very spacious. Loved that. The only small space in the place was the kitchen, but no big deal. The kids could sprawl out and we all felt like we had our own space.
The beach across the street was really nice. We drove all over the island to various beaches but loved the one closest to us. One of the days there was a family of sea turtles just hanging out in the water by the rock outcropping. We spent half the day watching the turtles get tossed around and washed up with each wave. It was pretty cool.
One negative about the place was the master bedroom AC wall unit is right outside the balcony by the table. It puts off a good amount of heat, so we didn’t enjoy sitting outside as much, but I’m guessing that could’ve been avoided by just turning the unit off when we were outside. The place has 3 wall units and it got pretty warm inside if they were off. We felt like they did a good job of cooling the place off quickly though. The master bedroom unit was loud but you get used to it.
Overall, we were very pleased with this rental. The location and roominess of this place made it a winner in our book!
