This Grand Champions - One bedroom condominium is just a short walk to the ocean. The ground floor unit features easy access and a reserved parking space in front of the unit. It features a large bedroom with a comfortable, king-size bed and a "fainting couch", a living room with a full size futon and a couch, a full kitchen, dining area, full bathroom with a two person shower and a tub, and a lanai featuring tropical garden views - with a waterfall and stream in the winter months when we get enough rain.. While it is a ground floor unit, the lanai is raised about six feet off ground level (no outside access). Floor space is approximately 900 square feet. See below for other details. This is one of the best units in the complex, quiet because it is on the edge of the property, and shaded for most of the day so it is cool even in the summer. This is the most affordable, one bedroom condominium in one of the finest resorts in the world. You get a clean place to rest or hang out by the pool and you can walk to all of the other great stuff. Easily sleeps four. Be sure to check out the many, many reviews below. Also, if you are looking for something for larger groups, or closer to the water please check out our new listing VRBO 1858451. Please be advised that the building roofs in the complex are being re-done through early December 2024. There is a break in the work between 12/7/23-4/1/24. Our building is scheduled for 8/2/24-9/4/24, and the one right next door for 7/5/24-8/5/24. I will not be renting our condo during those two periods. In general, the condo association has promised to limit the impact to pool use and parking, but I expect there will be some. Please consider this when making a reservation in this timeframe. Please contact me if you have any questions. The Grand Champions property features two pools with whirlpool spas, barbecue facilities and lush gardens. It is surrounded by Wailea's award winning Blue Golf Course and Tennis Club. Ranked in the top 50 best resort tennis facilities, the club boasts 11 plexi-pave courts, three lit courts for night play, a stadium court, paddle tennis and a full service pro shop. Guests will receive preferential golf rates/reservations at the Wailea and Makena courses. Located in the heart of the Wailea Resort area, on Maui's sunny south shore, Grand Champions is just a short walk down the hill to the Shops at Wailea, and to two new shopping centers up the hill. Great places to eat in both. We are just from Ulua Beach (ranked eighth in the nation - world class snorkeling and diving too), Keawakapu, Mokapu, Ulua, Wailea Beach, and Polo Beaches, spa facilities and award winning restaurants. Grand Champions is a private enclave in the midst of Wailea that offers its guests all the wealth of this world-class resort's environment and a touch of seclusion that sets it quietly apart. The architecture is classic, the environment peaceful, the landscaping lush, and the views are exceptional - including the world's largest dormant volcano, Haleakala. Kihei is a few minutes to the north. This is much more of a busy, touristy town. You can find lots of stores there to get groceries and other stuff; and some good, inexpensive restaurants. There is also a shopping center a few miles up the Piilani Highway, with a Safeway for food supplies.. Discover Hawaii's fascinating undersea world on a snorkel or dive trip. Explore the beautiful Hawaiian waters aboard a private yacht charter or observe nature on a whale watching tour. For those who would like to remain on land, Hawaii offers adventurous bike tours and eco-tourism hikes. Visit Ahihi-Kina'u Natural Area Reserve, Kealia Pond Wildlife Refuge, or the Hawaiian Islands Humpback Whale Sanctuary. Maui is a treasure of cultural and natural sights just waiting to be explored. This condo is Non Smoking, including the lanai area. Check in time is 3:00; check out time is 11:00. You MUST be out of the condo by 11:00 so it can be cleaned for the next occupant unless we have agreed to a late checkout in advance. Note that we do not provide shower/bath/cleaning products as most people prefer their own brands. And we just provide a "starter supply" of toilet paper and paper towels. There are no pets allowed in the condo complex. Please note that the condo you are renting is not a standalone, isolated unit. Understand that as in hotels, the condo shares interior walls with two other condos. Since this is an end unit only one wall is shared, with another condo of mine. As this condo is on the ground floor there is also a condo above you. The walls of my units have blown in soundproofing material to mitigate noise issues. Also like a hotel, there is a (locked) connecting door between my two units which is not sound proofed and can also be a noise source. Please be aware of the potential for noise from adjacent units and at the same time be considerate of other guests, particularly at night. Cancellations and refunds: There is a 25% deposit to book the condo. Another 25% is due 60 days before arrival, The balance is due one month before arrival. If the balance is not paid at that time, the reservation may be canceled. The condo is clearly advertised as “NON-SMOKING”, including the lanai. If you are found to have violated this, you will be charged an additional $250 cleaning fee. Hawaii tax numbers are TA-032-821-2480-01 and GE-032-821-2480-01 Keywords: Condominium
