Photos and Description of the Maalaea vacation condo rental
Condo, 1 Bedroom + Convertible bed(s), 1 Bath, (Sleeps 2-4)

Stunning ocean and volcano views distinguish this corner unit in the seaside village of Maalaea. The central location of Maalaea makes it the perfect spot to spend a vacation on Maui. Both living room and bedroom face the water with 25 feet of windows spanning both rooms. 107 Milowai is also 25% larger than the typical one bedroom due to its unique floor plan. This non-smoking condo has an elevated first floor location that is six feet above ground level from the living room and 10 feet above ground level from the bedroom windows - providing very close proximity to the ocean (literally 40 feet) with considerable privacy and panoramic ocean views.

The spectacular marine vista greets guests from both living room and bedroom; the warm, tropical colors of the condo complement the ocean setting. Breakfast on the lanai is a special treat as you watch the bay come alive with surfers, sail boats, snorkelers, and the occasional whale. Snorkel in your own backyard or stroll to a beach eight minutes down Hauoli Road. Grill fresh island fish at the barbecue while watching the Maui sunset.

Our condo is professionally managed by Bello Realty, Inc., providing thorough cleanings and excellent customer service for the past 30 years.

About Frank Russo

In Nov. 1992 Brian made a down payment on our Maui condo with a convenience check from our credit card company. I could have killed him! 19 years later it has turned out to be a wonderful place that has given us so much pleasure throughout the years. We are amazed at how every time we arrive the stress of big city life evaporates with the first soft and fragrant, tropical breeze. The view we experience from our condo is un-matched anywhere on the island; we call it our 'forever view'.

Frank Russo purchased this condo in 1993
Why Frank Russo chose Maalaea

The location is so close to the ocean that you feel like you're on a yacht. And the view of the volcano and the bay is so beautiful that many guests just stay put and enjoy the view!

What makes this condo unique

You can hear and see the ocean from everywhere in the condo. The condo floor plan is very open with a 25-foot panoramic view through windows that stretch from the bedroom to the livingroom. Most one bedrooms feel like narrow caves with a view at the end. With 107 Milowai, you have your bedroom right on the water...where it should be! I built a partition for the bedroom with a large opening and shutters so that you can separate the bedroom from the livingroom if needed while leaving the shutters open during the day for that beautiful panoramic view.

Aloha Frank,

Well, our two weeks here will soon be coming to a close and I must tell you how absolutely perfect your beautiful condo was for us.

I had wanted a quiet place to stay with a view and after looking at what seemed like a thousand condos for rent I was fortunate enough to find yours.

The amazing view, the sound of the surf to lull us to sleep every night......I simply cannot say enough!! Mahalo, mahalo, mahalo!

The condo was very well-equipped and clean and the immaculate grounds were an absolute delight. Being centrally located , we were easily able to enjoy the whole island on day trips. My helicopter tour of the island was awe-inspiring as were Haleakala and Hana.

I hope to return next year and have already recommended your condo to friends.

Cheers and aloha,

Victoria B.C. Canada

Owner's Response: Mahalo, Judy, we appreciate you taking the time to comment on our condo. People always tell us that our central location makes seeing the island very easy. Our condo is close to everything and yet is a very peaceful place to relax and enjoy the view. We recently replaced the vanity in the bathroom, and added a bar table with bar chairs so that people have an elevated view from the kitchen counter and the new table. We also added wireless internet and a new LCD TV for bedroom. Aloha, Frank

Wonderful place to stay

5 of 5
Submitted: January 30, 2013 Stayed: January 2013
This central location of this condo made it a terrific spot for easily reaching so many of the far-flung sites on the island. But the condo in itself was a terrific retreat to awake in and come home to each day. We loved watching the sun rise over Haleakala each morning while drinking coffee on the lanai. Because it was winter, we saw many whales out in the bay many mornings and evenings as well as turtle heads poking up just feet from shore. Sleeping to the sounds of the waves so close by was beautiful and soothing. The condo was clean and very comfortable. We are big cooks and enjoyed the well-equipped kitchen. The owner's instructions and communications were all detailed and helpful. We recommend this place highly.
Recommended for:  Age 55+, Adventure Seekers, Romantic Getaway
Owner's Response: Thanks for the terrfic review. We are continuing to make improvements such purchasing a new king-size bed and replacing the lanai windows and sliding door. We try to do everything bit by bit on Maui since it is hard to get things done quickly. The central location is a tremendous convenience to all our guests, but if you don't feel like doing anything, our condo is a great place to relax and not go out. Mahalo and aloha.

Wonderful stay at Oceanside Condo

5 of 5
Submitted: December 11, 2012 Stayed: November 2012
We had a wonderful stay at this well provisioned condo that sits literally 40 feet from the ocean. The place has all the amenities that one could need including a fully appointed kitchen, wireless and premium cable TV. Though you are on the first floor, the condo and lanai are elevated so you are not really at ground level. Being centrally located, there was easy access to several beaches and to both Kihei and Lahaina.
Recommended for:  Age 55+, Sightseeing, Families with Teenagers, People with Disabilities, Romantic Getaway
Owner's Response: Thanks, Jay. Our condo has everything that you need for a comfortable stay and it's close to all main attractions on the island. The view from the lanai is unbeatable, so you dont' feel like you have to go anywhere if you don't feel like do anything. No surprises except for the terrific view and closeness to the ocean. Aloha!

Absolutely Wonderful !

Dear Frank,

We had a wonderful week in Maalaea! We so enjoyed that first look of the view from the condo. The pictures are very accurate but they cannot capture the full effect of the breeze, the sound of the ocean, the birds and the expanse of the the vista. It is an exceptional view of land and sea and nature that creates a sensory overload..

We arrived slightly early and the condo was already well prepared for new guests. The condo is very well supplied and furnished. The location is wonderful for easy access to all parts of Maui. It is an easy walk to the general store, the harbor and shops. My dive boat left right from Maalaea and I just walked home from a fantastic dive with turtles and all sorts of beautiful Pacific coral and fish. I golfed nearby and we made drives to many areas on Maui.

The drive to Haleakala is fun and the view astounding...Then when you sit on your lanai and watch the sunrise over that same volcanic mountain is truly a wonderful and unique sensation. Every morning we watched the turtles right from the lanai as they raised their heads for air while they grazed on their favorite seaweed.

There is a special moment every morning here at 107 Milowai...There is a time in the morning when the outline of Haleakala is clear as the sun is up but still hidden behind the mountain. Then the sun peaks over and the condo floods with fresh new sunlight. We found it to be a fun and beautiful moment and signalled the beginning of a fantastic new day on Maui.

We were tired every night but slept wonderfully to the sounds of the sea and the anticipation of another great day.

Aloha and mahalo for allowing us to share your home. We had a fantastic time.

Owner's Response: Thanks for the great response. That's exactly how we feel when we return after 24 years of visiting the same spot. The location is convenient and the view is spectacular....you really don't need to go anywhere to enjoy Maui, however, everything is nearby if you want to sightsee. And Maalaea now has a great general store and lots of decent restaurants along with a world class aquarium and whale watching expeditions. That view of Haleakala volcano is enchanting, especially in the mornings from late October to March. Dawn happens, but there is no sunlight. The volcano then froms a huge silhouette with the sun behind.....and then, all of a sudden sunlight flushes in from the top of the volcano. That's why its name in Hawaiian means "House of the Sun", and that's what it feels like every morning after dawn. After all these years, we still wish we could stay longer at our idyllic spot. Please come back; it will always be here. Aloha and Mahalo.

We had a terrific stay in this wonderful condo. The view is absolutely breathtaking. Everything you would ever need has been included and this makes for a hastle free vacation. The location is ideal and this makes it easy to get to other spots on the island. We loved using the bar b q and enjoyed some wonderful restaurants that are within walking distance. We definitely recommend this condo -- its beautiful, comfortable, and the owner is so nice to work with. We hope to return.

Owner's Response: Thanks for the great review. We just went back ourselves in August and loved it. We never tire of the beautiful view and the wonderful sounds of the ocean. And, after all these years of visiting 107 Milowai (since 1988), we still are sad to leave. Aloha.
