Kihei Beach Condos is a great place, the location is not in the middle of all the bustling activity of 'tourist town' and was just the way we wanted it. Just across the street is a fantastic farmers market, and we were able to get a lot of our food there. There is an ABC store also across the road and you can pick up most of the essentials you might need there as well. When we first got to our room, An Ali'i agent met us at the door and gave us lots of great advice of other places to get groceries, and other great things to do and go and see while on the Island. The view out off the Lanai is simply amazing - that alone is worth staying here! The room condo is very clean, nicely kept, and felt like a home. Yes, there is a lot of road traffic that you can hear from the master bedroom first thing in the morning, but there is a sound machine in the room, and that does help. The traffic noise didn't bother us at all really - just I know a lot of people have comment on it. Really, all in all, the place, and the location were perfect for us. The only reason I gave it 4 stars was due to a problem with the washing machine. We tried to wash our clothes, and the machine didn't work, locked up and at 8:30 at night we were waiting for a representative from Ali'i to come and take care of it. It turned out, that we ended up have to go to another condo to do all our laundry for our stay. This only happened because it was a new machine that wasn't installed properly, and I am sure it is now taken care of. The representatives made accommodations for us, and took care of it the way they could, still, it was a bit of a disappointment to be trooping around the property at night doing our laundry. Would we come back and stay here again - absolutely we would, and we recommend it to anyone!
The location of this place, is very central to pretty much everything on the Island, we did a lot of day trips from here, and we were able to get everywhere quickly. The beach in front of the condo is a small beach, and the water has a pretty rough break, so we didn't spend as much time in the water here as we did at other beaches around the Island.
