About this apartment rental

Tax ID: 118-781-5424-01

Welcome to Kauhale Makai ("Village by the Sea"), one of Maui's premier oceanfront condominium resorts.

Unit #630 is widely regarded as one of the best one-bedroom locations in the complex, offering breathtaking penthouse-level views from the sixth (top) floor. With no parking lot views or traffic noise, you'll enjoy a peaceful and relaxing stay with unobstructed ocean views from nearly every room.

This beautifully appointed one-bedroom, one-bath condominium features a comfortable king-size bed, central air conditioning, and tasteful furnishings throughout. Because the unit is on the top floor, there are no guests above you, ensuring a quieter vacation experience. An elevator provides convenient access to the unit.

The spacious bedroom includes a king bed, elegant bamboo flooring, a 55 in flat-screen TV, and soft overhead lighting to create a warm and relaxing atmosphere. The living room features a comfortable sleeper sofa and a 60-inch HD flat-screen TV, making it the perfect place to unwind after a day of exploring Maui.

The recently remodeled kitchen is one of the highlights of the condo. Unlike many units in the complex, the original half wall has been removed to create an open-concept layout with panoramic ocean views while cooking or dining at the breakfast bar. The renovation includes custom cabinetry, granite countertops, modern appliances, and thoughtfully designed lighting that enhances both the kitchen and dining areas.

Step onto the private lanai from either the living room or the bedroom and enjoy spectacular ocean views, seasonal whale watching, stunning sunsets, and unforgettable stargazing. The lanai is uniquely equipped with dimmable lighting, creating the perfect setting for a romantic evening meal while enjoying the sights and sounds of the Pacific.

The beach is just a short 100-foot walk across the beautifully maintained oceanfront lawn. Kauhale Makai is known for its lush tropical landscaping, friendly staff, and outstanding amenities, making it an ideal destination.

To ensure the property remains safe, well-maintained, and up to date, occasional maintenance or construction projects may take place within the complex. Work schedules are managed by the property management and are not provided to individual owners in advance.

Whether you're watching whales from your lanai, enjoying the ocean breeze, or simply relaxing in this beautifully updated condominium, Unit #630 offers everything you need for an unforgettable Maui vacation.

Excellent property and a wonderful stay! Laurie was incredibly quick to respond to any questions we had and made everything so easy from start to finish. The condo was very well stocked with extra towels, sheets, and even beach equipment, which was such a nice bonus.This was honestly one of the easiest check-in and check-out experiences we’ve ever had with a VRBO. We arrived late and after dealing with several detours from recent flooding, Laurie’s directions were spot on and extremely helpful. We had no trouble finding the property.The office staff was beyond welcoming, and the complex itself was full of friendly people. The location was perfect — close to great beaches, restaurants, and also perfect for relaxing by the pool. We would absolutely stay here again!

Amazing spot and lovely condo.

We loved our week at Kauhale Makai! The unit itself was exactly as described and photographed in the VRBO listing. Several reviews mentioned a well-stocked kitchen - for those who like to know details, that included a drip coffee maker, a water filter, grilling tools for the community grills, tupperwares, ice trays in the freezer, dish soap, and some oil/vinegar/shoyu/spices leftover from past guests. There was also plenty of toilet paper and extra linens for bath and bed, and the TV is a smart TV that can connect to your apps.The furnishings are very classy and in excellent condition. That really made us feel at home while sitting around the living areas during our lazy holiday. The grounds at Kauhale Makai are beautiful with a large lawn leading to the beach, two pools and a hot tub. Over Christmas it was lively (in a fun, non-disruptive way) among the guests and owners! The beach was never crowded and the water was very clear and calm. We found the surrounding neighborhood challenging to walk in as there aren't pedestrian-friendly sidewalks in the surrounding blocks or along the route to the grocery store and shopping/restaurant areas. Hawai'i is very car-centric but given that the area is full of beachside condos I was a little surprised at the pedestrian inaccessibility.We would absolutely book Laurie's unit at Kauhale Makai again, and have already recommended it to friends! Mahalo nui loa for a lovely vacation!

The unit is exactly as presented. Awesome ocean views, comfy furniture, and a lovely updated kitchen. Everything we needed was there; beach towels, ice chest, beach umbrella...nice appliances, and the best location on site. I highly recommend this unit and would love to go back. Did I mention the deep soaker tub and the lovely linens? I was traveling with my daughter, but with the soft lighting on the lanai, this would be great for a couple. Looking forward to another stay. Thanks Laurie.
