About this property

Vacation in Paradise - Maui Hawaii, Ocean Front Condo

Welcome to our beautiful beach front condo at Kanai A Nalu, on the quiet side of Maui. Our ocean front unit, located on the second floor, overlooks the grounds lush, tropical garden as well as the crystal blue waters of Maalaea Bay.

During the winter months, you can whale watch from our Lanai. This is when the humpback whales bring their young to the protected waters of Maalaea Bay. It's a sight you will never forget and look forward to seeing for years to come. Another wonderful sight from our lanai are the Catamarans boats sailing by in the early evenings, just as the glow of the Maui sunset with its beautiful orange and purple hues cover the sky. As you sit on our Lanai, sipping a cool drink and nibbling on PuPu's (Hawaiian word for hors d'oeuvres) and basking in the after glow of it all. That my friend is when you'll know you're definitely vacationing in Paradise!!
!
We're located on our own private beach with miles of White Sand that run in either direction. Snorkeling is wonderful at our beach too. With yellow and brilliant blue fish swimming along side you in the coral and rockier area of the water to the right once you've stepped onto the sand. As you leave the sandy beach our guests have access to the outdoor shower. Our cobalt blue tiled swimming pool is complete with a waterfall and is located next to our new double commercial grade gas BBQ's with wrap around counters. Completed October of 2017. We've had rave reviews about it! We also have a dinning area for those who prefer to enjoy their meals outside. It's a fun way to meet your fellow renters as you enjoy the sunset.

We are a five minute walk to the Maalaea Boat Harbor where you can book many water excursions; snorkeling trips to Molokai, Sunset Dinner Cruises as well as dine at the Harbors many Fine & Casual Restaurants and Tourist Shops. WIthin the dining and shopping center you'll find the 'Maui Ocean Center' a #1 tourist attraction with a beautiful aquarium, Miniature Golf and Bumper Boats. It is only a 15 minute drive to Kihei with many shops and restaurants, farmers market, beaches, golf courses and much more.

We've recently renovated our condo, installing granite kitchen counter tops, granite bathroom vanities, cool tiled floors, air conditioning unit with ceiling fans located in dining/living room area/both bedrooms and in master and guest bathrooms. Stackable washer and dryer located INSIDE OUR UNIT and we even supply laundry detergent!! State of the art appliances fit for a King & Queen. Each Bedroom has plantation shutters, ceiling fans, all freshly painted with attention to detail. The master bathroom has a large shower and the guest bath has a shower and bathtub with sliding enclosed doors (not curtains). Each room has its own door with door knob (not dividers or shudders but real doors)

Our Lush Tropical Grounds will Entice You, while the Fresh Floral Air and the Warm Tranquil Waters will Refresh & Energize You! All of this plus the Worlds Most Gracious & Friendly People with that 'True Aloha' spirit await you.
We hope you choose the place we call 'Our perfect little slice of paradise'.

Wonderful 2 week stay
We visited Maui during the horrible wildfires that caused much destruction and loss of life in the beautiful island of Maui. God bless all those who were affected. Fortunately for us , we were safe and sound at this condo. Grounds were clean, quiet and well maintained. Beach is clean and walkable. Clear calm water most days. Great pool that was never over crowded. Location is perfect. 15-20 minute drive to airport, Costco, Walmart, Safeway and Target. Close drive to the town of Kiheh where you can find more great beaches, shave ice, sushi, etc. Condo was very comfortable for a family of 4. Lots of dishes, pots and pans and kitchen basics like coffee, spices and all the cleaning supplies you may need. Beds were comfortable and we left our windows open to hear the comforting sounds of the ocean as we slept. Showers were great. We always left the lanai screen open and never felt the need to open the AC. Amazing view from our lanai. Loved spending time watching the sunrise and the stars at night. We really enjoyed our stay! We would recommend highly. DLG

Wonderful!
This is a great condo for up to 4 people. The kitchen is amazingly stocked with spices, every pot and pan you could imagine, serving platters, coffee pot that uses keurig pods and can also use ground beans and fill the 13 cup pot! Toaster, waffle makers, blender, cutting boards, ....everything you could ever need. There are oodles of beach goodies - some sorkle equipment, 2 beach chairs, pool noodles, a.coolerand a few boogie boards! With the breeze coming through we almost never had to use the A/C. Only once, we turned it on. The view is amazing and we've already seen whales in the cove! The cleaning staff work so hard to keep the grounds clean and enjoyable. Sooo much walking beach, just out the door. I honestly have nothing bad to say. This was a wonderful stay that we will do next year when we come back! Mahalo for allowing us to use your gorgeous condo!

Host profile image
Our first vacation to Maui was all it took, we were hooked. Knowing that we wanted to return Maui as much as possible, we decided to take the proceeds from the condo we had just sold in California and use it to purchase a condo in Maui. Now that we're both retired we visit our home here in Maui at least 3 to 4 months out of the year.

Why they chose this property

We Flew back to Maui several times to check out different areas in Maui. We started in Kiehi then travelled all the way up to Napili. We ended up choosing our property for several reasons. We loved that it was not over crowded with tourists and traffic, like many areas have become. Maalaea is quiet and laid back. We enjoy sitting on the Lanai so much as you feel the warm tropical breeze flow through your hair your eyes direct you down the tropical garden path to the cool waters edge of our private swimming pool. If that were'nt captivating enough if you continue a few more feet you'll feel the warm sand between your toes because you've now arrived at the edge of our beautiful white sandy beach. At certin times of the year you can actually see the humpback whales swimming by with their calf's. . The blue tranquil waters sparkle from the sun dancing on top of the waves like little crystals, its breath taking! This is why we choose our condo in our little corner of Paradise, we hope you will enjoy it too.
