Clean room, air conditioner worked, bed was comfortable which was a nice surprise. Dive shop was just behind it (where I spent most of the trip). Location was right near the beach, and the food garden. Overall area and stay were just what I needed. The owner was great, messaged me with lots of information, and made sure I had everything I needed once I arrived. Would definitely stay again. (I stayed for 3 weeks)
This place has everything we needed. It has a fan and AC and a lot of beach supplies so we are always comfortable. The bed is comfy too. The host Ligia is very responsive and offers lots of help!The location can't be beat. Walkable to lots of food trucks, restaurants, Foodland and many beaches! South Maui Gardens is right next door and it's such a chill place with live music, shows, events. We learned to surf at the beach right across from the studio!
The best for walk ability to beaches, shopping and night life. Place was comfortable with small fridge and micro. Host is a great communicator and has great ideas for touring the island

I stayed in Maui with my best friend for a week and we were in between 3 places. I am SO HAPPY we stayed here! Everything was walking distance. The beach park was in front of the building but the beach to swim was only 10 mins away walking. The South Maui Gardens was also right next door which is a beautiful plant nursery with food trucks, live music, small cute breakfast places, and events that a lot of people drive to. We only used our rental to go explore Hana and the luau in Lahaina because everything was so close. The room was absolutely perfect and comfortable! 10000/10!!! :)
Absolutely loved this location! The host is so kind, accommodating and communicative. The details in room such as beach towels, coffee, and boogie boards were such a great touch. Made it so hard to leave!
We thoroughly enjoyed our time at this apartment. The room was just as described. It is located on the 6th floor and there are elevators or stairs to access the room. Parking was not a problem. You are across the street from the ocean, one block away from brunch spots or food carts. The area is quite convenient. Communication was prompt and helpful. The room itself is simple but the small amenities like beach chairs and boogie boards are a nice touch. We would stay here again.

Clean and Comfortable
The unit is small but well appointed. Bed was comfortable. The property is a bit noisy but doable. The pool was nice.
My husband and I enjoyed our stay in this property. The location was perfect for walking to shops, restaurants, the gardens with the food trucks, and the lovely park across the street. Ligia’s suggestions for activities and instructions to get to and access the room were perfect. We appreciated the nice thoughtful touches and amenities provided.
Loved the location, spent alot of time at S Maui Gardens!, Pool was great. Walked to most places easily. Ocean across the street. Sweet and comfortable space.
Central location, easy access for food and beaches.
If you dont have a car, this is a great location. Close to food, bars and beaches. Plenty of activities close by. It is a studio without a kitchen, but we planned on eating out most days anyways. They had boogie boards and beach gear at the studio. The owner communicated extremely well. I would highly recommend staying here.
The room was overall in great shape and clean. The host provided additional items such as beach towels and chairs. Although there’s no kitchen, the host has a microwave and refrigerator. The room was honestly a perfect fit for what we were looking for. The location is absolutely ideal and within walking distance to so many fun places to check out. The little touches the host has throughout the room was very much appreciated.

Not too bad😊
It was economical, great location and pretty cute!! I thought it was a nice touch, two chilled beers in the mini fridge with cold glasses even.
We actually thought it was well appointed and probably would stay again. However, I was disappointed that when I let them know there were long black hairs more than 10 on the bathroom floor not because I wanted anything compensated but because I wanted to bring it to their attention for something to pay attention to, I heard nothing, not a word, not even an “ I m sorry we missed that”
Yet they texted back about another matter, I was wondering about parking. Anyway, overall it was good for the price!! I would recommend
This property is definitely the best price/location combo I found, and because of that I'm giving it 4 stars. You can tell the owners care about the place because they decorated it very nicely and provide lots of great amenities that are super useful. They've done great work with such a small space.
Now for the cons:
1) Attention to detail, especially with cleaning. Somehow a shoe that was partially hidden by the draping of the comforter by the side of the bed such wasn't found by the cleaner. Not sure how, I immediately tripped over it. The tub/shower could also have been cleaner.
2) Bugs. I didn't count this against the star rating because I realize it's Hawaii, and Kihei, and an old building, and you can't control the cleanliness of your neighbors, but there were definitely bugs.
3) There was no shampoo or conditioner provided, just a bar of soap.
4) There's no dead bolt. This felt unsafe.
5) The shower curtain liner was gross. Recommend replacing more regularly, or getting one that is patterned, not white.
6) The shower head is crazy low. If you're over 5' tall you're going to hate the shower. A new head that goes higher (like the kind that is also a handheld) is like $30 and easy to install and would make this sooooo much nicer for tall guys like me.
7) A curved shower curtain rod is cheap, easy to install, and would make the shower so much nicer.
8) The lights outside are always on and the curtain isn't very dark. A blackout curtain would be really nice.
Great central location in Kihei where you can walk to a lot of local vendors. The host provided a lot of recommendations for restaurants, activities. and sightseeing. Would recommend.
Perfect location and walking distance to beach, food trucks and shopping. Very nice, cozy place and a great host. We appreciate you allowing us access to the room before check in at 4pm and allowing us to check out later. Your communication was excellent. We don’t have any complaints. Thank you for having us!
