20 Reviews of Property 326328 in Kahana, Hawaii

We recently visited this condo and have some mixed feelings. We loved the location, the view can't be beat! Seeing whales and turtles all day was a treat. The condo was SUPER clean and the upgrades to the kitchen and bath were very tastefully done. However we were disappointed that they weren't carried throughout. A few decorations would make it feel more homey. Seeing screws in the walls where pictures used to be was distasteful. The kitchen was well stocked with pretty much everything you would need which we appreciated because we enjoy cooking. For us the hammock, Bowes Radio and upgraded TV was a BIG plus.

On the downside the extra small refrigerator and "Murphy Bed" were in our opinion bad choices. The bed was so uncomfortable and the refrigerator was so small. We had to make daily trips to the store which takes time out of your vacation and costs more too! There is plenty of room for a regular bed and refrigerator which I think would be a great improvement for this unit.

The most disappointing part came at the end of our trip. We had originally booked our trip with the promise of a late check out, so we opted for the Red Eye flight back home which would allow us to enjoy a last full day of our vacation. Mid morning of our last day we received a phone call from the management company letting us know that the late check out that they had given us was being revoked due to them overbooking the condo - well all I can say is it was very disheartening the way it was handled. It put a BIG damper on our last day in what was otherside a nice vacation. As such when we do come back we will not stay in this unit again.

This was our first visit to Maui traveling with our toddler (1 year old) and we decided on this condo based on the prompt and easy communication with owner Chris as well as the beautiful photos and video of the property.

When we arrived to the unit from our long journey, we were ecstatic to see the gorgeous view of the ocean, island of Lanai, and a hammock on the balcony! We knew this would be our paradise for the next 10 days! Chris sent out a recommendation list of local purveyors before we arrived so we knew to stop by the grocery store to pick up our food for the week. With a full kitchen that has a stove, refrigerator and freezer, and a dishwasher, we knew we would be able to allow ourselves to truly live in the space.

We were so happy that we felt like we lucked out on such a perfect condo for our needs. There were several nights that one of us would sleep outside in the hammock because it was so peaceful and relaxing listening to the waves crashing in. We brought home dinner several nights in a row from the chinese restaurant right across the street and ate outside on the patio table just watching the stars twinkling in the clear sky. On mornings, we would wake up to the calm ocean, the birds chirping of happiness, and the wind blowing into the leaves of the palm trees. During mid morning, we would view humpback whales spouting water and jumping in the air and splashing around. What a sight!

The location of Pohailani is in the center of Kahana area which is between Lahaina and Kapalua. We thought it was perfect for our needs since we wanted to be in a more low key area. Some mornings for exercise, we walked 1.5 mile north or south along the coastal neighborhood street (lower honoapiilani street) to find cute shops and secluded beaches! There was an amazing farmers market nearby which we visited several times.

As I've mentioned above, we loved this unit. It was super clean, furniture was up to date, location was good, and overall I would highly recommend it to a friend or relative. We are so fascinated by the magic of Maui and the hospitality of everyone around us. Our accommodations were perfect and even the baby items we arranged to rent with a local baby rental company. The crib, books, beach toys and indoor toys were already in the unit for us when we arrived! They had coordinated with the owner to come in and install everything before our arrival.

We will be back very soon and would repeat our experience again!

The view and location are great, as advertised. The kitchen and bathroom are more than adequate. The Murphy bed is okay. But the place lacks decent, comfortable furniture. There is a small sofa, a footstool and a floor lamp. That's it. We had to ask for a coffee table and were provided a well-worn one. The two rugs, especially the one by the sofa, were very soiled. The description of furnishings uses the word "elegant" which is laughable. Where are people supposed to set cups, glasses and books while there? The unconcern for guests' comfort was a big minus for us.

Great Location, really is very close to the beautiful ocean. We were visited every day my sea turtals just on the other side of the sea wall. Loved the beautiful bathroom and shower. Has a very large lani and is fairly private. The pictures are accurate but was smaller than I invisioned. We stopped and shopped for the week on our way from the airport. To our surprise the refrigerator is very small,
two drawer's under the counter. We like to cook for ourselves. Their is only two burners and no oven. This is the main reason for not giving it 5 stars. I also wish the lani had some loungers instead of the hammic. If the hammic was up it took up the whole space.
Overall we had a great and relaxing time and plan to come back. This would be a great condo for a couple that likes to eat out.

The condo is very modern, well maintained, very agreable to live in. The bathroom is fantastic! The lanai a dream! The view is breathtaking.

The only things that we regret were: (1) you have to cross a road and walk 3 minutes to access the two swimming pools of the residence and these two swimming pools do not get a lot of sun and generally full of children. (2) there is no direct access to any beach. (3) the air conditionning was not working.
So you need a car to get to the beaches, which is no big deal, if you have rented a car.

All in all, this is a very very good value for the money!

My busband and I stayed in this nice condo for a week and we had such a good time. It's so wonderful to watch the sunset on the balcony and fall asleep with the wave sound every night. The location is good too. It's close to many beaches. We like this place and recommend to everybody.

We had a great time staying here. Chris was really great and provided a blow up mattress for my son.
We used the grill almost every night. Beautiful sunsets! Watch the turtles swimming by from the lanai.
I would recommend this place to anyone.

We loved this little oasis. Great view with soothing ocean sounds was the perfect vacation. Grass lawnchairs to sunbathe in the complex but not the direct beachfront property we expected. Beautiful beach within walking distance though. Great location to get to Lahaina and local grocery stores/restaurants but still peaceful and within drive a some beautiful hikes. Washer/dryer access across the street and wonderful shower when you get in from the beach. Will definitely stay here next time.
