Maalaea Kai Resort 213

We stayed in room 213 for 2 weeks recently. Things to know about this room: the cleaning company may be doing a good job disinfecting the room, but they should spend more time actually cleaning. We found a NyQuil cold tablet on the living room floor (did they vacuum?) And a pair of dirty socks in the bedroom hamper (did they even look?). The kitchen cabinets had grime all over them (which we cleaned/scrubbed) and the outside of the fridge was disgusting until we scrubbed that too. The hide a bed couch in the living room was the most uncomfortable couch I've ever sat on. We bought and left common items like scissors and drink cups with lids because the kitchen was lacking these basic items. The ceiling fan in the bedroom is wired incorrectly. The fan won't run unless the lights are on which is not a good idea when trying to sleep. There were two pots in the kitchen: great big and very small. Nothing in between. Overall, we were very disappointed. The good news is the location is very central to everything on the island and we spent most of our time away from the room (which is the point of being there!) so we were able to look past the shortcomings and enjoy our trip. The owners need to spend some money on the place and it could easily become a great place to stay! Also know that the bedroom window is directly in front of the elevator if you want to open it at night and the front door sticks. You can't close it without slamming it.

The place was great. Good location close to tours etc.. People very friendly. Loved the grills and the pool. Condo was clean and kitchen was good. The only thing was there needed to be some more basic kitchen supplies like spices, salt and pepper, cooking oil, aluminum foil would have been nice.

This was a very nice unit in a very nice location. Enjoyed the outdoor grills. The view was unmatchable. A very comfortable place. We had one problem with the air conditioning and response was very quick and proper.

This was an amazing place to stay! The host provided all the detailed instructions and even texted us when the place was ready for a check-in. Check-in was super easy. The place was very clean with a gorgeous ocean view (btw, we got lucky as it was a great south swell and we got to watch surfers surfing the waves all day long right from our lanai - it was pretty cool). We also saw turtles from lanai every day! The place has a perfect breeze through, so it was never too hot. And we could hear the waves even in the bedroom. The pool had really nice warm water, warmer than other pools we visited! Location is perfect, it was only 6 min walk from the Maui ocean center. The condo is very well equipped with everything you need. The only thing that was inconvenient for us was that there was no dish-drying rack because I don’t like using dish-washer. But there was a dish-washer.

Place was very nice and location was excellent. Only if it the place would of had 2 bathrooms, it would of been perfect.

Aloha

Had a great stay. The location is great. Centrally located, quiet and amazing view of the ocean. The unit was very comfortable, not as fancy as a couple others, but met all our needs.

We enjoyed our stay. The condo had everything needed for a relaxing stay. We had an issue with bugs. The host came immediately to bring us supplies to deal with them. It is moist Hawaii. Bugs live there. We would go back again.

A beautiful location by the ocean. Conveniently located within driving distance of many places. Nice and clean.

I would have liked it if the shower had more water pressure.

COMING BACK
My recent stay was truly amazing, and the owner added some of the basic touches. Great glassware and plastics to use outside. Fantastic ocean view all day long.

Nice place to stay

We enjoyed our stay in unit 213. Clean and everything you need. The pool was very nice and warm. Beach Bums is a very good place to eat 5 minutes away. The ribs special on Wednesday are the best and reasonably priced.

Best vacation ever! It was truly an amazing experience from the condo to the beautiful location and everything in between! A peaceful paradise!
