Photos and Description of the Kihei vacation condo rental
1 Bedroom, 1 Bathroom, sleeps 2, Central A/C

Watch the sunrise over Haleakala or the whales in winter from our lanai. Stroll the five mile white sand beach, boogie board, wind surf or snorkel the reef out front. You could not ask for a better location than Sugar Beach Resort. Our 4th floor (Premium Rated) ocean view unit, with island-style decor, is a privately owned, non-smoking, upgraded, well maintained one bedroom/one bath unit that has everything you could possibly want to make your stay a perfect one. Central air, new queen bed, two flat screen TVs, DVD Player, CD player, iPod player, washer/dryer in unit, all linens & towels, well equipped kitchen, picnic cooler, beach mats, chairs & towels plus lots of day to day supplies. Free cable TV, free Internet, free phone including long distance calls to mainland and Canada. The ocean front property has a large heated pool, Jacuzzi, sauna, putting green, gas BBQs, restaurant/bar, activity desk (Maui Sights & Treasures), spa services, bridal/tuxedo shop (Elly's) and clothing shop (Lani's).

Sugar Beach Resort completed a multi million-dollar renovation in 2009. The buildings were all repainted, lanais/decks re-done, windows and roof replaced and all condos have new individually controlled central air-conditioning units. In 2010 all walkway railings were replaced. In 2012, efforts were made to complete projects that would preserve resources. To assist in preserving the fresh water supply on Maui, a well was drilled to supply water for the irrigation of the lawns and lush tropical landscaping at Sugar Beach Resort. To assist in energy usage, over a million dollars was invested for solar energy panels on the roof to assist in meeting energy needs of the complex. New energy efficient lighting throughout the property has also been added. There is a active recycling program in place which guests are encouraged to participate in. Within our own unit, we have installed energy efficient lighting, energy saving appliances and water saving fixtures as together we can make a difference. In addition to making efforts to “Go Green”, the centrally located beachfront location makes Sugar Beach Resort a perfect lodging choice for your trip to the island of Maui.

As homeowners of this condo unit since 1997, and another non-rented unit at Sugar Beach Resort since 1988, we take great pride in our rental property. I personally inspect our unit when I visit Maui about every 2-3 months and udpdate, replace inventory or make necessary improvements during each trip. Our cleaner is outstanding and has been with us for over 12 years. She knows the unit, as well as our expectations, so together we can assure you of its cleanliness, quality of furnishings and organization of contents. The centrally located beach front location makes Sugar Beach Resort a perfect choice for your trip to the island of Maui. Come and enjoy all that our unit at Sugar Beach Resort has to offer. We would love to have you as our guests!

VRBO Listing Extremely Accurate!

We have had the privilege of staying in this condo twice. It has met our expectations each time. The listing description for property #319978 is very accurate. The owner has thought of everything to make you comfortable and feel like you're at home. We found everything we needed and more. The photos are up to date and show what the interior of the condo and resort look like. The condo is kept clean, updated as needed by the owner, and very attractive. The owner is extremely helpful and great to work with. Any questions we had were always answered. The owner has helpful information to share, and lots of books and pamphlets in the condo for things to do on Maui. The location at Sugar Beach Resort in N. Kihei makes it easy to drive to any of the islands highlights. There is immediate access to the beach. Whale watching was great this time of the year. There are many sights to see and resturants to go to, or barbeque and eat at home. We would highly recommend this property to other couples looking for a great stay on Maui. We will be returning to Sugar Beach Resort and this condo soon. Mahalo for a great stay!

I am happy you felt our photos and the listing description were accurate/current for our condo and the resort and that the unit met your expectations. It was a pleasure to have you as our guests once again and I look forward to your return in the fall. ALOHA!

Excellent Condo for our 40th Anniversary trip

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Nov 10, 2012
  • Stayed: Oct 2012
We just finished staying 23 days in this condo, it was EXCELLENT!!! Exceptionally clean, very nicely decorated with wonderful pictures, nicely done....not over done! The furniture was comfortable, the flat screen tv's were great, the Ipod player a nice touch.Kitchen was very well stocked with everything from salt and pepper, spices, ketchup, mustard, flour, brown sugar, olive oil, ziplock bags, foil, saran wrap....everything that you could possibly want or need (saving us money by not having to purchase them!) We used the little cooler, the beach towels and the beach chairs. Having wireless internet was very convenient, being able to go out on the lanai and using our IPAD was great. The bed was very comfortable with nice linens and the bath towels were fluffy and plentiful. The owner even thought to leave shampoo, conditioner, lotions, bandaids, and other items for us to replenish our small traveling bottles. The owner was extremely helpful if/when we had questions. She was extremely knowledgeable about the area and was more than willing to share secrets of where to go with us.I would highly recommend this unit to my family and friends to stay here. One of our favorite low key restaurants is the Blue Moon, about a 5 minute drive south on the Piialani Hwy. Excellent food, pretty good prices. Their salads were made with the freshest greens and vegetables.....I couldn't get enough of them! We shopped at Costco for the majority of our items, and now with the gas station open at Costco it is the cheapest gas on the island, over 40 cents less expensive than everywhere else.
We were surprised at how many families with small children were at Sugar Beach at this time of the year, more than we expected....at times the pool area was quite crowded with little ones, but we still enjoyed every day!
Owner's Response: Many mahalos for taking the time to submit a review of your recent stay in our condo. I am pleased that you enjoyed your stay and found the provided extra amenities both helpful and a cost savings. I understand, with baggage restrictions, many of those mentioned amenities are no longer able to be easliy packed. Purchasing them once you arrive means lots are wasted as you are usually unable to use them all during your visit. Mahalo for indicating your appreciation for them in your review. I am also pleased that you found the furnishings both comfortable and pleasant. I try hard to make the condo feel as much like home as possible. As I have stated before, my cleaner has been with me for over 10 years. She knows my expectations and works hard to allow me to provide our guests with a clean & well organized unit! Again, many mahalos for being our guests and your kind review !

Aloha,
My wife and I spent 16 days in the most comfortable, clean, and extremely well stocked condo since we have been going to Maui. The owner is extremely courteous and helpful. She is very easy to work with and on top of all phases of the process. You can rely on her to keep you informed of everything. I've told her, "She definitely has all her ducks in a row!" She has a wealth of information to share about Maui for anyone renting from her. Their well stocked condo makes it very easy to pack light. From the lanai you can see the ocean, well kept grounds and pool of the resort, and Haleakala. Views in all directions! The pictures on the VRBO site are accurate. Staff at the resort are pleasent and very helpful. Resort location lets you travel in any direction with ease. There are too many good places to eat to mention here but having meals in the condo and b'queing by the pool gives you many options. The dolphin watch trip to Lanai was well worth it. Many spinner dolphins swimming with the boat and 3 rays were an added extra. We will definitely return in the future!
Mahalo, Mahalo, Mahalo!

Owner's Response: Mahalo for taking the time to write such a kind review of your recent stay. Besides a clean and comfortable unit, my goal is to provide guests with as many of the comforts of home as possible to allow you to enjoy your stay to the fullest. The photos have the date they were taken to provide an accurate representation of our condo and the common areas of the property. I appreciate that you noticed and commented about them. My cleaner works hard to have the unit clean and ready for your arrival and I am constantly inspecting the unit, updating or replacing inventory when I visit every 2-3 months. We work as a "team"! I am always willing to help or respond to any questions our guests might have, prior to or during their stay, as communication is a vital part of the "Vacation Rental by Owner" experience. I look forward to having you as our guests once again in March 2013! Once Again, Many Mahalos!

This is our second stay in Maui at Sugar Sands Resort. First time in this unit. I would highly recommend this unit. It is beautifully decorated and well stocked. If you need it, it is there. It is a short drive to wherever you want to go. The place makes you feel like you are at home. This unit is clean clean clean! To me that is important!
We are already talking about a return to Maui next year and if so, this is the unit we would want to stay in.

Wonderful Condo

  • Submitted: Jul 16, 2012
  • Stayed: Jun 2012
My husband and I had never been to Maui before, and were referred to the Sugar Beach Resort through a friend. We were not disappointed! The property is very well-maintained and very clean. It has a great beach for lots of walking, both north and south of the resort. The gas grills were a fun meeting spot in the evenings to get to know other guests better, including a gentleman that we found to live about five miles from us here on the mainland!
As for the unit we stayed in, we were extremely impressed. Very clean, tastefully decorated, (I loved the clean, soft carpet in the living room and bedroom!) and stocked with all that you will need for your stay. We loved the fact that it's an end unit, and therefore really quiet. One of my favorite things was that in the shower there is a small window at the top of the wall and you can see palm trees swaying while you shower. Loved that. Also, dealing with the owner was wonderful. She was incredibly helpful, and quick to respond any time I had a question. She made the whole process of renting the condo very seamless.
Hopefully we will return to Maui, and if so, we would not hesitate to stay in this unit again!!

Mahalo for the review from your recent stay. I always enjoy reading what unit amenities our guests enjoy the most and especially liked your comment about seeing the swaying palm trees from the upper shower window. My goal is to always provide a clean, well stocked unit and I was happy to hear that this was achieved. We look forward to having you as guests in the future. Again, many mahalos to you both!

Secluded Condo Perfect For Us

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Jun 8, 2012
  • Stayed: May 2012
My husband and I researched for weeks and weeks before settling on this condo to rent for our 10th anniversary. I even called the owner and asked lots of questions (even after having e-mailed a bunch as well) and she was nothing but honest and helpful. We were looking for something affordable that was a little secluded, near a beach, with a view preferably, and at least a few beach items to help keep our packing light. This Sugar Beach Resort condo was perfect for all of that!

We loved the central location. It was a quick 15-or-so minute drive to the airport, Walmart, and Costco. It really was a convenient center for our activities all over the island. The beach itself isn't one of the best to play in, but that made it wonderful for running in the mornings together or walking at night. Often at sunset we'd head North and have a good stretch of beach all to ourselves! The grounds are kept in beautiful condition. It can be VERY windy here in the afternoons, so just be aware. We found the other resort owners/guests to be very friendly. I will add that we're in our early to mid 30's and it seemed most at the resort were older than us by quite a bit, but there were a few young families. Just an observation.

Concerning the condo, the owners have it extremely well-stocked with cooking supplies, beach towels, beach chairs, a cooler, some beach totes, umbrellas, extra shampoo, golf balls and putters, even disposable shopping bags since plastic ones have been banned. We found the condo to be very clean upon our arrival. We loved eating breakfast on the lanai every morning watching the waves and boats below. This unit is on the end, and we found it to be very quiet. My husband could hear noise at night from the road, but it wasn't loud enough to be bothersome to either of us. The bed was firm but comfortable and a welcome place to repose at the end of the day.

I really appreciated the packet of information about the island the owners sent to us prior to our departure. I honestly carried that packet around with us as well as the unit's copy of "Maui Revealed" wherever we went. Between the two, we felt we had some wonderful advice for our stay! The owner was also kind enough to let us have a very late checkout since no one was arriving the next day, which probably was one of the biggest selling points for us. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again if we return to Maui someday. This condo really felt like "home" to us during our stay.
Owner's Response: Aloha Koreena
Many mahalos for taking the time to submit a review for our listing page. I appreciate your comments as they will hopefully help others that may consider renting from us. No question, email or call is ever too many as guest satisfaction is a priority. Our best wishes many for more happy anniversaries!

This has been our second stay in this unit and once again, it was amazing! The condo had all the same amenities as it did during our last stay and more!! We knew we could pack light as this owner is clearly very cognizant of what guests will need and makes the extra effort to provide these items (e.g. beach chairs, detergent, garbage bags, fully equipped kitchen, flat screen tv's, Ipod charger) to help make the guests stay more comfortable. We really appreciate all the little personal touches in the condo, as well as the cleanliness. The super comfy bed was new and sure was comfortable!! Sugar Beach is truly paradise and we love how quiet the resort is, as well as the neatly maintained grounds, pool and gardens. The view from the lanai is more and more beautiful each time we come and we can't get enough of strolling up and down the big sandy beach right out front, or watching the beautiful sunset right out front. Until next time!!
Owner's Response: It was a pleasure to have you as our guests once again. We appreciate your comments about your stay. We try hard to provide a condo that meets the expectations of our guests and are happy to provide the "little extras" that guests might enjoy during their stay. We are pleased when guests notice our efforts. Once again, many mahalos. We look forward to having you as our guests in the future. Aloha!

I just want to start by Sending a BIG THANK-YOU to the owners!!!!! They were very helpful from the start and even helped me with renting another condo for our daughter, Mom and Mom in law. They were very organized and answer any questions I had very quickly which I appreciated :)
Now for the condo....All I can say is you have out done yourself (I am able to compare this to two other units as my Moms had one and my Aunty and Uncle Had another one) This unit is full stocked compared to the other units you will find EVERYTHING you need and the quality of the stuff supplied surpassed the other condos....My Hubby and I looked like a King and Queen in the Tony Bahama loungers while everyone else sat in the tiny uncomfortable beach chairs :) Condo was very quiet and clean the view of the pool an beach was beautiful. We also loved that it was a corner unit made it seem more private. The bed was super comfortable that has always been the biggest complaint my Hubby has anywhere we stay he didn't complain once about it being to hard or to soft (he is picky).
Resort very nice and everyone is super friendly and has a smile on there face we loved going down to bbq and chatting with everyone (everyone has some kind of cocktail down there :) loved that) and the hot tub in the evening. The other best part of the resort was it was close to everything and all the best beaches in my opinion :)
I could go on and on and I am so sad we had to leave I have fallen in love with Sugar Beach!
Thank you so much for a wonderful Vacation :)

A Trip to Paradise

We have stayed at Sugar Beach Resort before, but this was the first time we stayed in this unit which we booked directly from the owner. From our initial inquiry to our departure, the owner was more than helpful and went out of her way to make sure everything was perfect.

When we arrived the unit was very clean with everything we could think of provided. We both have Iphones so we found it wonderful that the unit had a player which would allow us to charge and play our Iphones. The quality of the appliances, furnishings and amenities in this unit were far superior to any other unit we have rented from in the past.

Although we were out traveling the island most of the day, we enjoyed quiet breakfasts on the lanai, watching the sunrise over Haleakala or the watching the waves crash at the shore. The views were fabulous!

We loved our stay in this unit so much we are already planning another trip.
