We just spent 4 nights here and were very pleased with the value for our money. We added on a few nights to our original plan of a week, and needed to stay somewhere less expensive. Our stay was about $120 per night. We had a large 2 bedroom condo, beautiful ocean view. It had EVERYTHING we needed, down to... More

I have been coming here for years. We rent thru VRBO we get a 2 bedroom condo with a ocean front view cheaper than most hotel rooms on the freeway anywhere on the mainland. It's not the Taj Mahal or the four seasons but you can stay for weeks at this place instead of days at the expensive condos. The... More

My wife and I stayed for the month of April 2013. Well kept complex, pool, grounds are really well maintained. We stayed in unit 122, not a bad unit but it did need some work. We enjoyed our stay and have booked again for next year( but not this unit) as the east wall backs onto a stairwell and utility... More

My wife and I have stayed at Kauhale Makai for two weeks in both 2011 and 2012 and have booked it again for three weeks this Fall. If you want a luxury resort, look elsewhere. If you want to pay a reasonable price for a condo and have beautiful views, well-kept grounds, and a safe, clean, quiet environment, try Kauhele... More

I wish I could give a review of the property, but we never even made it inside. My husband made reservations with Anita (the owner) for Condo #323 in the beginning of December 2012 for 4 days of our January honeymoon. We did not see a charge on our account for over 2 weeks. On December 16th we noticed a... More

Clean, spacious condo, fine view of ocean, friendly staff, good swimming pools. Would definitely go back again. Its a bit of a walk from the condo to the village, so we needed a car rental to get around Maui - not the fault of the condo, though.
