South Kihei keeps its best beaches on one stretch of shore, and Kamaole I, II, and III sit right across the road from here. Kihei Alii Kai C206 is a fully rebuilt one-bedroom condo whose tiled lanai looks past the palms to the water on one side and up to Haleakala on the other, high enough on the building to catch the sunset over the coast.

What You'll Love About Kihei Alii Kai C206
• A tiled lanai with ocean glimpses one way and the bulk of Haleakala the other
• Across the road from Kamaole I, II, and III, three of South Kihei's white-sand beaches
• Sleeps 4: a queen bed in the bedroom, a new sleeper sofa in the living room
• Gutted to the studs and rebuilt, from the walk-in shower to the kitchen
• Beach chairs and boogie boards already stored in the lanai cupboard

Inside
The rebuild shows in the plain things: a walk-in shower, a full kitchen with new appliances and enough utensils to cook an actual dinner, and light, beach-toned furnishings that keep the one bedroom feeling open. A flat-screen and a sleeper sofa with a real mattress fill the living room, plus WiFi and a washer/dryer so the salt and sand stay outside. Air conditioning cools the living room, and ceiling fans move the air in both rooms.

The Lanai
The large tiled lanai is the reason to book this one. It opens off the living room with room to sit, the ocean showing through the palms on clear days and Haleakala filling the view inland as it catches the early light. The beach chairs and boogie boards live in a cupboard out here, packed and ready by the door.

Sleeping Quarters
• Primary bedroom: a queen bed, with a ceiling fan and the bath and walk-in shower a step away.
• Living room: a new sleeper sofa with a full mattress for a third and fourth guest.

Nearby
Everything sits close on this end of South Kihei. The Kamaole beaches stretch along the shore opposite, and off the right end of Kamaole I a coral reef draws green sea turtles most days. A health-food store, restaurants, bars, an ice cream shop, and souvenir shops are within a walk, the Shops at Wailea are about a mile south, and Wailea and Makena golf are a short drive. Kahului and the OGG airport are roughly 20 minutes north.

Good to Know
• One set of 6 stairs to the door. The complex has two elevators, one at each end.
• The complex layout is a bit of a maze; the check-in map marks the direct route to C206.
• AC cools the living room; ceiling fans run in both rooms.
• Whales pass offshore in season, roughly December through April.

The tiled lanai holds both views at once, the water through the palms on one side and Haleakala inland on the other. Pick a side and settle in.
