Kuleana Resort 714

The location of this unit is prime. The balcony overlooks the ocean and the turtle sanctuary- you are so close you’ll need to close the balcony door to be able to hear the TV! Lanai is a wonderful place to sit, enjoy the view and see whales. When we arrived there was a small beach and easy ocean access for swimming and snorkeling. A storm came up one night and unfortunately the sand washed away leaving no beach and a difficult water access. The room is on the small side with little counter space. Pots are stored in the oven. Bathroom is fairly large and new. Unit could use a vacuum and mop, and cleaning supplies so you can tidy up during your stay. When we arrived 2/6 pillows were clean, others were very stained with yellow stuff and blood. Floor was not washed and there was lots of food under the stove. Every night ants would come out from under the stove. Screen door is difficult to close without a loud sound, yet there is a rule to not slam the door. Parking is very tight and you will get a notice if your tires touch the lines! Grounds are beautiful, BBQ area is lovely and ocean front. Destination Maui desk person got us new pillows, a broom and chairs for the unit. We paid for an extra night, but had to move units on our last day. We were given the wrong door code and couldn’t get ahold of anyone as it was Sunday. Security was unable to help. It cut into our last day and was quite stressful. We packed everything into our car. Finally a maintenance man came and he had the code to our new unit. Obviously the codes don’t change - we wondered about the security of that! The new unit was 507 - this unit was older, furniture dirty, walls needed painting. Beautiful view once again.

Condo was in excellent condition that was stated, very clean, swimming pool, great location. Outdoor grilling location was in great location and Very clean every day. We loved watching sunsets while grilling. Never had to talk to admin or maintenance for any type of help. Although air conditioner needs help, So noisy. Overall a Great vacation location.

As soon as we opened the door and saw our view we were so awe struck. We have stayed at 3 other locations at the Kuleana resort and this was our favorite. The place was updated and they had everything we needed for the beach which was a huge plus. We will be back.

Fantastic.Everything was great everything was just like the pictures. One issue with a sink and was fixed right away. Turtles were a great show. Would highly recommend this place.

You'll be expected to purchase your own toilet paper, soap, paper towels, dish rag, trash bags etc. They leave virtually nothing in their "starter Kit" and likely you'll be washing their bathroom towels as they leave 3 wash cloths and 3 towels.
Destination Maui Management takes cheapness to a new level. Cheapness rears its' ugly head throughout with ripped blankets, very limited cooking supplies, burned or missing necessary cooking pots/pans, even salt & pepper aren't furnished!
Avoid any of Destination Maui Property Rentals and go camping instead; you'll have much better accommodations!

We return to Maui every year and have great experiences renting condos over many years.
This is the first time we have ever experienced anything like this.

You won't get us again, Destinations Maui Management Company!

Attention Condo Owners: Using Destination Maui as your Property Management Company, will ensure you'll have a much higher rate of vacancies, numerous unhappy visitors which =equals less money in your pocket from your investment.
We own multiple rentals including a small motel and couldn't imagine furnishing anything like this for guests-and we charge 49.00 a night!

Ten days in 714. Very clean unit with great views of the ocean. Ocean could not be any closer. The pool was very large and a great place for relaxing. Limited number of deck lounges due to COVID rules I guess. Many lounges locked up at pool. 4 BBQ's with 2 closed due to COVID I assume. Seemed odd since there was distance between them. Not nearly sufficient number of BBQ's with that many units. Very helpful staff on site worked with us on the leaky dishwasher and TV internet issues. But then who needs a dishwasher and TV when you are in Hawaii. Amazing air conditioner in the bedroom. Thank you.

absolutely perfect

- Jack C. from San Clemente, Posted: 04/05/2021

We enjoyed our stay at the Kuleana. The unit was clean and well stocked with the exception of not having a kettle or an ironing board. We did run out of hot water just after one shower, but it warmed up quickly. We had stayed in another unit at the Kuleana for 2 weeks previous to staying in this one. 714 far surpassed the first unit. Moving from one unit to another is such a pain. We really appreciated the effort made by staff to get us in to this unit earlier in the day.

This unit was perfect! It was super clean. All the furnishings were up to date. We saw at least 10 turtles playing around right from our balcony. This is our 2nd stay at Kuleana. We love it here. So beautiful!

We enjoyed our visit, especially the ocean views and lots of whale sitings from the balcony.

Excellent property.... very nice view. We rented 3 units so that the family could be nearby our condo...Wonderful!

- Christina C. from El Dorado Hills, Posted: 12/01/2022

breathtaking view of the ocean. all amenities in unit were great except the air conditioner in the bedroom needs to be replaced. It is very, very loud! It comes on and off every few minutes which is understandable; however, it is pretty jarring when it comes on!

Everything is great at this resort. Grounds well taken care of, pool always clean, small beach and snorkeling area is perfect

This was the perfect place to stay on Maui! Close to everything we wanted to see and do. We saw turtles from the balcony and the property. We loved watching the sunset from our balcony and I got some great pics! The unit was roomy and comfortable. A/c worked great and bed was comfortable.

We didn’t really have any contact with the owner but we didn’t need anything so I guess it was fine. The checkout instructions were a little confusing with different things to do written in multiple places. The only thing we had to complain about was the neighbors smoking a cigar and weed. We thought it was a non-smoking building, but apparently not?? There were a couple nights we couldn’t enjoy the balcony. Other than that, our stay was great! We purchased additional paper towels and soap because you’re only given a starter set, but we knew that going into it. An extra dish towel or two would have been nice too, but we made do. And the clean, newer furnishings more than made up for those couple things!

We loved the location of this rental so much! The views of the ocean right off the balcony day and night were stunning and so peaceful. The condo was very clean and the bed was on the firm side and very comfortable. The only complaints we have are that the AC unit was a bit noisy (but it kept the space very cool and comfortable so it was bearable) and the water pressure in the shower was SUPER intense (it hurt taking a shower) and therefore the hot water would run out really fast. But you didn't want to stay in the shower too long because of the pressure so we would just wait about 1/2 an hour and there would be enough hot water for the next person. Oh, and there is a group of sea turtles that live around the rocks just outside the condo and they were so fun to watch! The water there is a bit choppy but some people would snorkel off the shore around the turtles. We would definitely stay here again, but ask if the water pressure could be adjusted.
