Wailea Ekahi Luxury 1bd/2ba Beachfront resort

Our stay in this Condo was in the middle part of May 2011. We had a week of the best! After a hot day in the sun, this Condo was a great place to hang out and relax. With the two levels, it was a great set up. This Condo is situated in such a location that nobody encroached into your space and we did not interfere with any other tenants in the surrounding area. This came in handy when we decided to open up that second bottle of wine! (That seemed to happen quite often). Being able to sit out in either the upstairs or ground level patio was great. No need to pack very much if you are coming to this Condo. It is outfitted with everything including beach chairs, coolers, surf boards and large beach towels. We will be back!

We stayed for a week at the condo and thouroughly enjoyed it. The condo was clean, confortable, and well-stocked. Ekahi is a great complex to stay in and this condo is one of the better ones in the complex. The condo is roomy and private -- the two lanais are a great bonus.

The best part about the condo is dealing with the owners. The communication was completely painless and all emails were answered promptly.

Overall, a great experience. I had high expectations based on other reviews on this site and these expectations were easily met.

My husband and I travel to Maui frequently and only stay in Wailea at Ekahi Village. The weather is the best on the island. We can snorkel right on "our" beach without having to even cross a street. This was our first time staying at Vicki's unit. I must say I was a little skeptical before arriving. We've always stayed closer to the beach (read this as not close to the street). Also the pictures made the kitchen look a little dated. The skepticism disappeared as soon as we walked in the door. This unit is very nice (I gave it 5 stars). We were a little late getting to the beach pavillion for sunset a couple of evenings, but the view from the upstairs balcony was just perfect. We will definately call Vicki the next time we are in Maui. One recommendation I would like to give (you won't find a flyer at any of the activity stands) is for Kai Kanani Sailing. Check them out on line at Kaikanani.com. Their sunset cruise and Molokini snorkeling trips were fabulous. The unique thing about them is that you embark on the beach at Makena. No long drive to Lahaina or even to Maalea Harbor. The staff waited on us as if we were the only people on board. We met their shuttle at the Marriott, and the owner even dropped us off at our front door after the snorkeling trip. Well worth every penny. Mahalo, Vicki. We'll call you again. I hope it will be soon.
