This condo resort is great if you need multiple rooms and beds and a place to cook/eat while trying to vacation on a budget.

Positives: Convenient to Kihei beaches and restaurants.

Negatives: The pool was less than stellar, and the staff was not super helpful.

The hotel is part condo part hotel. It is a very large complex with huge tracts of green, flowers, and fountains. Our condo was beautiful with 2 bathrooms, full kitchen, new appliances, granite countertops, huge flat screen, in room washer and dryer, and our own lanai. We were told by a maintenance man that we had one of the nicest.

Positives: Our room was more like a luxury condo! Beautiful. But all rooms/condos are different.

Negatives: Hidden $15 registration fee. We asked to opt out of fee.

The hotel staff was extremely nice and helpful. One of the best beaches on the island was across the street. The location of the hotel was ideal for traveling since it was more towards the middle of the island. The only downfall was that the room smelled of mold which caused us to have breathing issues while we were in the room.

Positives: The location was great; able to get around the island easily from this location. Best beach is across the street.

Negatives: There is mold in the room you can smell it and it caused us to have respiratory problems while in the room.

We had a good time in Maui, the hotel room is just what we needed. I stayed in Kamaole Sands for 5 days, which is located right across from Kamaole III beach. The location of the hotel is good. The hotel room is spacious and comfortable, has a fully equipped kitchen and a private Lanai. Overall, we really like it there.

Positives: The room has two bathrooms, many amenities provided such as toaster, microwave, coffeemaker, washer/dryer. Overall, very comfortable stay.

Negatives: Overall, I am very happy with this hotel. I cannot think of anything I do not like.

This was a very nice condo community. We had an average room, many more were better decorated. But for our needs, which were to sleep at night, eat breakfast, and shower after the beach it was perfect. We would use again.

Positives: The 2 bathrooms made quickly in and out from the condo very nice and easy.

Negatives: Could have been a bit cleaner. Housekeeping was not consistent.

Overall, I was very pleased with our stay. The condo was very large compared to our stay at Outrigger hotel last year. Some guest talked a lot about possible bugs (roaches). We only saw one on our first night and none there after. I would recommend this condo to anyone. We were minutes from the beach, eateries, and shopping.

Positives: The size of the condo was unbelievable.

Negatives: I did not like the bug that greeted us on our night.

The grounds were very nice and the help and staff efficient and friendly. as we entered the unit we were placed in, stained carpet greeted us, in the kitchen the refrigerator exterior was rusty and the oven door had peeling paint, the bathroom cabinetry was deteriorating even one of the bathroom faucets was falling apart.

Positives: Beautiful grounds.

Negatives: Room in substandard condition.

Pool and exterior is excellent, I have stayed there before, but this room 5-310 was gross. Old brown carpet. Looks like it was last changed in 1972. Kitchen was from mid sixties. Same oven. Did not like this stay at all.

Positives: Exterior is nice.

Negatives: Room was dated, old brown dirty carpet.

A great location in keel right across the beach from kamala iii beach park. Pool was always over run with kids.

Positives: Location.

Negatives: A bit of a dump, maintenance could have been a little better.

The condo was clean, very well lay out and furnished, and was right across the street from the beach! The great location allowed for all kinds of shops and dining facilities right within walking distance. Definitely highly recommended.

Positives: Wonderful service and spectacular rooms!

Negatives: Everything about the condo was great!

Overall a very convenient and nice facility that met our needs and budget. I would not hesitate returning to this facility.

Positives: Great location to beaches.

Negatives: Some confusion regarding my reservation prior to checking in.

It was a very nice condo, with room for four although the second bed was a small double futon, and we could have used something a bit larger. It would have been perfect for three. If your looking for a quiet area near beaches and away from the hustle of the resorts, this place is a perfect choice. Full kitchen and two baths, one bedroom and a futon in the main room. A great choice for a family getaway.

Positives: The location was perfect for our needs. Quiet near beaches and attractions.

Negatives: The second bed (futon in the main room) was a little small. As a group of four we needed two good sized beds.

The condo has a very homely feel- great for families or couples who want to make use of full kitchen facilities, including blenders and utensils. I would not recommend this place for honeymooners- it is not particularly romantic! Staying in Kaanapali or Lahaina (West Maui) is definitely more expensive, but well worth it. On a side note, I noticed my allergies acting up at this place, and I saw many dead cockroaches- but they were all outside the condo itself.

Positives: The place was very roomy- great for a family, group of friends or couples.

Negatives: It was disappointing to have them fumigate the place while we were there- oh, and I must have seen about 100 dead cockroaches outside the condo!

We stayed here last year and had a ball. We were upgraded to a two bedroom that was awesome. The staff is very nice and accommodating This year we stayed in a one bedroom, which was fine, but we had to move from one room to another one, because of the location of the room and the fact that the patio door did not work. We moved to our second room to find that it was not kept up as far as flooring, bathroom, etc. It was still alright, but that is the only thing we weren't happy with, and the fact that the television was from the 70's and didn't have a remote control. Each room is hit or miss.

Positives: Liked the location. Since the rooms are privately owned it's hit or miss on the condition of the room.

Negatives: I did not like the condition of the rooms because they varied from one to another since they are privately owned.

Great place if you are looking for a condo lifestyle. Great pool. Not crowded. Apartments, spacious, clean with all appliances needed even washer and dryer. Great for people who likes to move around the island and change beaches, and have stay in doors at midday.

Positives: Great location and very comfortable.

Negatives: No complains. Completely met expectations.
