Great Condo located in the heart of Kihei. Beaches, parks, shops, restaurants and bars. Great view of ocean with swimmers, surfers and snorkelers. Our hosts, Ligia and Mike couldn’t have been better. Our first nite we had problems with the TV set. The next morning they showed up with a brand new 65 inch set. Ligia would text every few days to check if all was well and see if we needed anything. Great hosts, great Condo!

Great view and location
The best features of this property is location and view. I think this is the only 6 story building in the area and is designed with all units to have an ocean view. Since this unit is on the top floor, the ocean view was the best! We enjoyed watching surfers, both experienced and beginners in surf school, from our lanai. The location is adjacent to shops, restaurants, and bars. The building lower level has shops including a great deli and a convenience store.it also has good off street parking. The owner was very responsive to questions or problems we had.

Unit is newly refurbished and tastefully decorated. Kitchen is the best equipped I've ever seen. Espesso machine! WITH COFFEE. Parking is secure and easy. Surfboard rental and beach right accross the street.

Decent place, but...
Pros: *The place is good enough for two. *Had "boogie boards", beach chairs and snorkeling stuff available on deck that we used. Didn't see a sign saying we couldn't, so we helped ourselves. *Mostly is as advertised. The walk across the street to the tiny beach didn't bother us. *Little store right below the rooms, around the corner, had drinks, snacks and trinkets available, if need be. Cons: *Some review may have mentioned a loud AC (if I remember correctly), that is true. I like to chill watching TV in the evenings after a long day. Had to turn up the volume to hear over the AC. *Shower curtain was dirty from the inside of the tub, upon arrival. Used one of their washcloths to clean it up best we could for the stay. *Hairs on the bathroom wall upon arrival. *Host is extreme about turning off AC when not in room. We stepped out one day and received a text from host about us having not shut off the AC. Felt weird, as if we were being watched, and I said so over text. She replied that they dropped off a dish scrubber and found the AC on. I replied I DIDN'T ASK FOR A SCRUBBER. Either way. Super weird. She told me how expensive the electricity is in Maui, etc. Well, too bad, but I'm from Alaska. When I get back to my room, after a hot day out, I don't want to wait 2 hours for a noisy AC to chill my room in order to get comfortable. My advice: Regardless of the electricity prices, but breathing down my neck because of the AC ruined it for me. If she stops that controlling trait, she will get better reviews. In fact, I was going to ignore the unclean shower curtain and hair on wall stuff, but after my frustration of feeling "snooped" on without asking for a scrubber, I decided to give my honest review. I know she tries hard, but sometimes you just have to let your guests be, unless they ask for your service. The silly scrubber thing really felt like it was her excuse just to check up on us. Note: Not the host's fault, but when the TV wasn't working for a day, she did a decent job in making an effort to resolve the issue and gave us access to another form of entertainment through an app, meanwhile.

If your looking for a location that is within walking distance to anything you will want, this is it! It is very busy due to the location, but the beach, Saltwater Café with organic and fabulous gluten free options was priceless for us. The unit is adorable, nicely kept and cozy. Wonderful stay!

Perfect place in Kihei
This condo was perfect. Starting with a beautiful condo with an owner that setting it up perfectly for amazing vacation. There were benoculars to see the whales from the lanai as well as chairs to use at the beach. She's thought of everything. Add to that the location is perfect with a beautiful view and walking distance to so many of our favorite restaurants. Thank you for an awesome visit. We'll be back.

Nice unit, busy area
This unit, on the 6th floor of the Island Surf condos, was very comfortable for us. Everything was neat and tidy when we arrived. The bed was comfortable and there was a large sectional couch in the living area for spreading out and watching TV. The kitchen was well stocked ... esp. with things I usually forget to pick up at the store, like coffee filters and salt & pepper. The small balcony was great ... so nice to have breakfast out there while watching people learn to surf at Cove Beach. Opening the balcony door and the bedroom windows provided a nice cross-breeze on windy days so we didn't use the A/C at all. The only drawback to this unit was that it is close to busy Kihei Street so you get traffic noise all day long ... and of course some people have to gun their motors or play loud music in their cars. It you were hoping to hear the lap of waves and wind in the palms, this may not be the place for you. On the other hand, it is convenient to a number of shops and eateries, including an extensive food truck park just up the street, and is across the street from Kalama Park. Ligia was a very responsive manager and answered our questions promptly.

The unit had everything we needed. I stay in rentals regularly in Kihei and this one had some special touches that I found beneficial. Seasonings & coffee stocked, binoculars to catch some whales. Great sunset view and close to the usual places I eat and grab coffee. Lidia was a fabulous host and we had no issues with our stay.

We booked three nights at this property. It had a great view of the ocean. We discovered mold in the air conditioner as well as ants and fleas in the kitchen. We contacted the property host about the air conditioner but a replacement would not be available until after our stay would be complete. We left early after 2 of three nights due to poor air quality from the moldy Air conditioning system as well as the ants and fleas we discovered in the kitchen. I contacted the owner a couple of times to request a refund only for the night we did not stay. I sent them a photo of the moldy air conditioner. The owner refused to refund the night we did not stay.

Good home base for exploring Maui!
Ligia was a fantastic host: communicative, welcoming, and accommodating. The Island Surf condos are in a great location for exploring South Maui, and a pretty central location for longer excursions to other parts of the Island. Being able to walk to Charlie Young and Kamaole 1 was a big plus. Unit is comfortable, but a little rough around the edges and could use some updates.

In need of a major clean and updates!
The condo is quite old with no updates and the cleanliness of the place needs a lot of close attention by the host! The location is great, across from the beach with many shops around, although it is quite noisy at night with street traffic, especially if you have a guest sleeping on the pull out couch in the living room. The pull out couch is extremely dirty, my guest opted for the blow up bed we requested. The air conditioners in the bedroom and living room were both old and in need of updating as they don't put out much cool air and they cut in and out constantly - at minimum, changing the filter would probably help. Highly suggest paying a bit more for a newer, cleaner, updated, well maintained place, than staying here.
