Maui Kamaole

Low density, large grounds, best sunset spot in Kihei across the street at Kamole beach park 3. This place has two pools and hot tubs too compared to one everywhere else. This is the best location in Kihei with proximity to the Wailea Trail and Keawakapu Beach.

We have stayed at the Maui Kamaole on several occasions. The last was Oct 13 to Nov 12/24. The property is generally quite excellent as far as we are concerned. The pools are well maintained as are the grounds. The unit we stayed at this trip was d 105. The unit was clean on arrival and everything seemed to be in working order. By the end of the first week the fridge was making so much noise it was hard to sleep. Vacasa, the property manager had a repair man on site in good time. By the end of the second week the same problem returned. I stayed at the unit and watched the repairman fix the problem. We lost some food from the freezer and Vacasa said they would compensated us. We heard nothing more on the topic. Never make a promise you don't intend to keep! On our last day the safe refused to open and so another call to vacasa. Again they were quick to get the problem solved. The unit was in not bad condition but was looking a bit tired. the carpets are near the end of their life. The lanai off of the living room was well maintained by the condo association and was clean. The table and chairs were old but serviceable . The lanai off of the bedroom looked like it had not had a clean up for months. The few surviving plants appear to depend on infrequent rain or concerned renters. Over all we had a great time and really the problems we had were not to serious. There are lots of choices in that property and we most likely will rent a different unit next year.

We recently had the joy of celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary with 39 members of our family here in Kihei, Maui, Hawaii. We rented 13 condos at Maui Kamaole through Vacasa, a total of 183 nights. Kihei: Is a great mix of Nature and tourist town. The beaches are almost always in fabulous condition. Turtles frequent the waters. Whale in December-April. A large range of restaurants, shops and tours. Easy access to many, many activities around the island. Maui Kamaole: Upscale condos with well-kept grounds and facilities. A good proportion of permanent residents. Minor annoyances: morning wake-up calls from the roosters and the somewhat heavy-handed requirements to agree to the Maui Kamaole (Homeowner’s Association) rules. We all somehow made it through without a single complaint. Vacasa: It was a pleasure to deal with Vacasa’s division that handles groups bookings. There were many changes among individual travel plans and a couple of changes in the availability of condos during the 6-month period between making the deposit and actual arrival in Kihei. They were handled promptly and to everyone’s satisfaction. The local Vacasa Regional office was also very accommodating and responsive. They made sure the condos were clean, bug free (amazing in Maui) and all the facilities, appliances and furnishings were in working order. They let us ship several extra packages to the office for our pickup. Minor annoyances: 2 of the13 condo lock codes were incorrect (resolved by phone in 10 minutes), 1 condo needed the carpet spotted (resolved next business day). We don’t think we would have been able to bring the entire family together in one condo complex without the services of a company like Vacasa. All the employees we dealt with listened to our concerns and responded with the spirit of Aloha!

I love this location. So close to the beautiful Kamaole III beach, I walked down to the beach nearly every morning for a swim, sometimes multiple times a day. Of course, every condo here is privately owned, and they're all different. I've stayed in two different condos on two different occasions. The first was a 2 bedroom / 2 bath with an impressive view of the ocean from the front of the property. Really great. The decor was a bit outdated, but I didn't mind because it was clean and the kitchen was well-stocked, and the location was unbeatable. The second condo I stayed in was a one-bedroom with 2 baths. This one had a lovely lanai that opened out onto a lawn with lush, tropical landscaping all around. The only problem I had was that the one-bedroom units are on the ground floor, beneath the 2-bedroom units. I could hear footsteps and the murmur of voices upstairs constantly. And whoever was sleeping in the bedroom directly above me had a vibrating alarm clock on their phone that went off at around 3am and 4am on multiple mornings, and it would wake me up instantly every time. And then after it initially went off on those mornings, it would ring and vibrate again like every 30-45 minutes. Very disconcerting. I sent a very considerate, friendly note to the people upstairs, but they ignored it. So I spoke with the property management office and they tried to help to no avail. Really disappointing. I lost a lot of sleep, but the beauty and warm spirit of Maui kept me happy. However, I don't intend to stay in a downstairs one-bedroom condo here again - it's clear that there is no sound-proofing between floors. If you're sensitive to noise at all, I don't recommend booking a downstairs unit (as far as I know, all the one-bedroom units are downstairs, underneath the 2-bedroom units which are on the upper floors). The two pool areas are really nice, especially the upper pool area that has beautiful, lush, tropical landscaping.

Our group of four adults had an amazing two weeks at this awesome condo. The owner Jason was excellent to deal with. We had to reschedule our trip twice due to Covid restrictions and Jason was very accommodating, he went out of his way to help make our trip happen. Can’t thank him enough!! The condo itself is perfect in every way, it is beautifully decorated and has everything you need for cooking your own meals and also lots of beach gear so you don’t have to buy or rent anything. The views from the lanai are spectacular and we watched the sunset every night while having appetizers and drinks. There are two bedrooms with very comfortable beds and plenty of storage. Each bedroom has its own bathroom so you have lots of privacy. Close by you will find plenty of beaches, restaurants and grocery stores. If you want to go on an ocean excursion there is a boat ramp a short stroll away from the condo offering plenty of snorkeling and diving trips. I would strongly recommend staying in this condo, the only downside was having to leave, but we will be back. Strongly recommend booking directly through the owner: mauikamaolea210@gmail.com

Our experience staying in unit A101 was excellent. Everything was clean and nicely decorated - and fully stocked with everything we needed for our easy strolls to the beaches just across the road (beach chairs, boogie boards, kids toys, etc). The kitchen was well stocked as well, and had the things we needed for preparing and serving food. The back patio was perfect for viewing the evening sunset and rinsing off the sand on our feet! Also, the owners website was extremely helpful in pre-planning: secretsofmaui.com
