About this property
Amazing panoramic ocean view! Perfect for couples. Just steps to the ocean.π
Feel at home in paradise and enjoy the amazing panoramic ocean view from this beautifully appointed condo. Our unit was completely remodeled! Tasteful decor and accents can be found throughout the entire unit. Much thought and love went into the remodeling as it is not just a vacation rental, it is also our second home. This is not the typical vacation rental condo.

Reviews: Please be sure to take a look at the Reviews section to read about what our prior guests have to say...
Sleeping Accommodations: This beautiful 1 bedroom and 1 bath unit is intended and best suited for 2 people! There is a King size bed in the bedroom. A new mattress was purchased in June 2018. The Lady Americana Camelot mattress has individually wrapped coils and Gel Memory Foam. This 485 square foot unit also has a Queen size sofa bed in the living room; however, please be aware that it may be too tight when utilized (when the sofa bed is pulled out there is not much room to walk around in the living room area).
Air Conditioning: There is a wall-mounted air conditioner ONLY in the bedroom. Central air conditioning is NOT permitted in The Kuleana complex. Air conditioners are only allowed in the bedroom. If you require central air conditioning then this condo is not a good fit for you. There are 2 ceiling fans in the unit (1 in the living room & 1 in the bedroom). There is also a portable fan in case it is needed.
Bathroom: The bathroom contains a beautiful walk-in shower. There is no bathtub in the unit. Please note that the vanity and sink in the bathroom is high (vanity is 36" high plus the marble vessel sink on top is another 5" high) making it difficult for children to reach.
Linens & Towels: All linens, bath towels and beach towels are provided for your use during your stay.
Unit Location: Our unit is located on the 3rd (top floor) so there is no foot traffic to disrupt your privacy and experience. The Kuleana is not a high rise condominium complex. There are NO ELEVATORS on the property. There are 3 flights (7 steps per flight) to reach our unit. There is no one above us and only 1 unit next to us separated by a block wall for privacy.
Lanai (balcony): It's all about the view! A large sliding glass door in the living room leads to the lanai (balcony). Take in the views of our neighboring islands of Lana'i and Moloka'i while dining on our private lanai. There is a bar height table and 4 bar stools on the lanai for your dining. Maui living is all about the outdoors. The sunsets from our lanai are spectacular! You may find it difficult to leave.
The Kuleana Complex: The Kuleana complex consists of 7 low rise buildings (no higher than 3 floors). The lush tropical grounds are beautifully maintained. Each unit on the property is individually owned. The Kuleana complex is best suited for adults as it is generally quiet and geared for relaxation. NOTE: There are NO elevators on the property.
The Kuleana Complex Location: The Kuleana complex is located in West Maui and has a Lahaina zip code (although it is NOT located in the former Old Lahaina Town area and was not affected by the fire). The complex boasts a truly remarkable oceanfront location. It offers more seclusion and privacy versus a resort hotel, but yet is close enough to have all the perks of resort amenities just minutes away. The Kuleana complex is conveniently located within a short drive to Ka'anapali/Whalers Village (3.4 miles), Kapalua (4.5 miles) and Napili (3.3 miles) where you can enjoy a wide variety of shopping, dining, entertainment and outdoor activities. We also have a Farmer's Market just down the road providing delicious produce and treats.
Please be sure to see the Reviews section to read about what prior guests had to say regarding the location. Many of them have enjoyed the location of the condo.
Airports: Kahului International Airport (OGG) is the main airport on the island. It is 30 miles from the condo (approximately a 45 minute drive without traffic). If you are flying to Maui directly from the mainland, you would fly in to the Kahului Airport (OGG). Kapalua Airport (JHM) is .6 miles from the condo. It is a 2 minute drive. The Kapalua Airport is a small regional airport that mainly operates inter-island flights (to/from other Hawaiian islands).
Beach & Pool: The Kuleana property fronts 2 seasonal beaches. Our unit is approximately 45 yards from the smaller private feeling cove. Please be aware that the beaches are subject to the currents and tides and can disappear. Currently one of the 2 beaches is gone and rocky. Winter months are less predictable and the beaches can recede overnight. The amount of sand/the size of the beach fluctuates and can disappear.
The unit is near the large gated and heated pool (pool length is 20 yards). Beach towels and 2 Tommy Bahama beach chairs are provided in our unit for your use during your stay.
Tennis: There is a tennis court on The Kuleana property available on a first come first serve basis. Tennis court hours are 8:00 AM until 8:00 PM (or until dark in the winter months).
Barbecues: There are 4 oceanfront gas barbecues available on property so you can grill while taking in the gorgeous views of the ocean and our neighboring islands of Lana'i and Moloka'i. The barbecues are a very short walk from our unit yet far enough away so that you do not see or hear barbecuing activities from our lanai.
Free Parking: There is free and convenient on-site parking for one vehicle. NOTE: The parking spaces are a bit tight so keep that in mind if you are renting a large vehicle. Parking is close to the entrance of the unit making it easier to unload your luggage or groceries.
Free WiFi: Free WiFi internet access is available inside the unit as well as the lobby area. Please note that the purpose of the unit is primarily for relaxation and is not intended to serve as a home office.
Smoking Policy: NO smoking is permitted inside the unit, the lanai (balcony) or any of the buildings on the property.
NOTE: No surfboards or SUP (stand-up paddle) boards are allowed to be stored inside the unit or on the lanai.
Golf: We are privileged to have world class golf courses nearby (within a 5 mile radius). The Plantation Course in Kapalua which is home of the PGA Tour Tournament of Champions is only 5 miles from the condo. It is rated as a top 100 golf course in the world and consistently ranked as the βBest Golf Course You Can Playβ in Hawaii.
Check-in & Check-out times: Check-in time is 3:00 PM HAST Check-out time is 11:00 AM HAST Please contact the owner if you would like to inquire regarding an early check-in or a late check-out. I try to accommodate these requests whenever possible but it will depend upon the booking schedule.
Additional Details: -Please be sure to read the various sections below for additional details regarding what is provided in our unit and on the property to ensure that this unit and complex is a good fit for your vacationing needs. -This is a condominium unit and not a hotel room; therefore, there is no daily maid service. The unit is professionally cleaned by a cleaning company after every check-out.
Contacts: This unit is owner managed. Prior to or during your stay, the owner can always be contacted with questions or concerns. In addition, there is an on-island contact. The on-island contact names, phone numbers and emails are provided to guests prior to arrival.

The space was as pictured and described. We enjoyed the pool and gardens, as well as the beach access. The kitchen was well-stocked with basics and the bedroom AC cooled the unit well at night.
Good location. Not far from shopping and beaches. Quite resort. Big pool but no hot tub. We knew that when we rented. The host was great at communicating. The condo was amazing! Wonderful view! Needs a couple serving spoons added to the expansive selection of items in the kitchen. We will definitely be reserving this condo again. Thank you for a wonderful vacation experience Lily!!
The location is beautiful and the condo is equipped with everything you need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The owner Lily generously provides you with detailed information and instructions about the condo and activities and restaurants in the area.
This stylish unit is located close to superb snorkel beaches, fine restaurants, and takeout options. The well maintained landscaping and pool area provide a chill ambience that let's you relax and enjoy the best Maui has to offer.
Everything from pre-comunication over check-in, stay and check out was very clear and uncomplicated. We had a great time in this beautiful apartment and would surely stay again at the place. Thanks a lot to our host Lily for the great communication and easy instructions.
This was our first time staying at Kuleana. We like the area it is inβ¦close to beaches, grocery store, restaurants and has a nice pool area! The view is AMAZING! Gorgeous sunsets! The bed could stand to be replaced, but we did enjoyed this condo. It was everything we needed! We would come back!
Nicely updated and decorated condo. Everything supplied for our stay. The view cannot be matched. Watched whales spout and breach in the distance. Awesome sunsets at night. Really enjoyed our stay!!
Had zero issues! Nice view, beautiful grounds and pool, nicely appointed and well taken care of unit. Owner provides prompt detailed instructions and useful information. Besides the coin laundry in the complex, this unit has an over/ under which is very nice. We enjoyed the nice patio set for sunsets and meal times. Lots of turtles, but the small sand beach was seasonally not there, lava rock instead.
Very much enjoyed our weekβs stay here. The condo is very well equipped for cooking, bbqβing, and beach/pool activities. The complex is quiet and well kept, as is the pool. Parking was not an issue the week we were there, we were able to park right in front of our unit nightly. The condo is accurately advertised but we found the living area small for a weekβs stay. A picture from the lanai into the living/kitchen area may give added perspective. Appliances are all new and work efficiently- super nice to have laundry in the unit. Great location and close to lots of activities - tourist and local. Communication was thorough and check in/check out was easy.
We absolutely loved staying at the Kuleana. The apartment is technically a 3 floor walk-up, but it was more like one and a half floors, the stairways are short. The views from the lanai were simply spectacular, we spent every evening watching the sunset from our balcony. The bed was large and comfortable, everything was clean. The road outside was a bit noisy overnight, but I slept in earplugs and was fine. Only tiny issue we had was the cable in the living room wasn't working, only in the bedroom. Host was quick to respond via text. We never got it working, but were fine to watch the ocean instead. Absolutely would not hesitate to stay here again. Perfect for a couple.
Refurbished condo in Lahaina. Stairs a little steep especially with luggage, but the climb is worth it! Great views from deck/lanai of the ocean and plethora of humpback and porpoise action. Continuously watching 2-5 pods of whales at any time, bring binocs or monocular to really bring them in! End unit on top floor so minimal noise from neighbors. Bedroom on parking lot side so a little noise with window open. Bar height table and 4 chairs on deck were used constantly and cooler and beach chairs available for use. Full size fridge, stove, coffee maker and sink with counter made snacking great.
Perfect for a couple with king size bed and walk in shower.
Owner was very responsive when I didn't realize that check in instructions were given couple of weeks before. Only issue and really my fault.
I would definitely return.
Great view and a wonderful condo. We saw a ton of turtles feeding in the rocks it was magical. It was very quiet and relaxing. The condo had everything we needed.
Once again an amazing stay at this unit. We have stayed there 3 other times and each time it is better than the last. The unit is beautiful and stocked with anything you could possibly need. Very clean and so comfortable. The lanai view is wonderful especially during whale season. Beach on property has turtles everyday. Location is great and near so many restaurants, things to do etc. If we could give 10 stars we would.
We absolutely loved our time here! The location is nothing short of magical β we watched whales and sea turtles from our balcony every single day. What a onceβinβaβlifetime experience!The unit was spotless, super comfortable, and perfectly stocked for an extended stay. Having an inβunit washer and dryer was such a luxury β it made everything so easy and completely stressβfree.We also loved how close we were to several gorgeous beaches. Just a short drive and we were in paradise!And Lilyβ¦ wow. She is an amazing host β incredibly responsive, thoughtful, and genuinely accommodating. She made our stay feel effortless from start to finish.We would come back in a heartbeat. Highly, highly recommended!
Gorgeous views and saw so many turtles. Amazing trip!

We had an amazing time! The condo was perfect, location was quiet, private beach and sea turtles did not disappoint!!!! I highly recommended this piece of property to anyone thinking of visiting!
