Beautiful Oceanfront, Sleeps 8. Ask About Construction Discounts Thru August2027

** NOTICE** There will be ongoing work to repair the seawall at the whole condo complex until August of 2027. All work done between 7:00 am and 5:00 pm weekdays. No weekends or holidays. For this reason, we are offering discounts. Please message us on this platform to see what we can do for you.

**Between now and April, 2027, the work will be at the other end of the complex from our unit, and the only effect will be the "occasional movement of equipment between condo and water" (according to management). You may be able to hear the equipment working on the other end, if you're outside, but it will be minimal compared to the sound of the crashing waves.
**April through July, 2027, the work will be ongoing on the seawall directly in front of our condo. It will be noisy during the day. Will not affect sleeping hours.

Below is the usual presentation when no construction is going on.

You will want to sit on the balcony (or lanai, as it is called in Maui) and stare at the ocean and the islands of Lanai and Molokai all day long. It is shaded until the late afternoon, making it very hard to get up for anything other than another coffee or another mai tai. The smell of the ocean and the sound of the surf are addictive. We (the owners) make ourselves take a walk every morning but come back and sit on the lanai a while longer when we are done.

The property is family owned and we want families to feel at home in our home. Therefore, we equip it the way we would want to find a property to be equipped if we rented it. We have been coming to Maui yearly for 30 years have and have owned this property since 2014. We love the place and know you will too.

We love to sleep with the windows open because we love the sound of the ocean. It is nature's own sleep sound machine. It is much louder in the master bedroom, because it is right on the ocean. The guest bedroom is on the back side of the condo, so the sound of the ocean is much diminished. If you do not want to sleep with the sound of the ocean in the master, you might not want to rent our place.

The mini split air conditioner sits on one end of the lanai. It does make some noise and blow a little warm air. We hardly ever turn it on, so it's not a problem for us. If it is hot outside and the AC is on, it may annoy some folks a little if they are sitting next to the unit. We don't have another option for placement of the unit. But hey, if you're in Maui and you let the AC unit annoy you... that's on you, lol.

We own a second 2-bedroom condo on the same floor, VRBO number 36070, which can be booked together for larger groups and families.
