About this property

Classic Beachfront Studio Apartment Right On Charley Young Beach

Say Aloha to this beautiful, oceanfront property and charming 2nd floor studio perched on a bluff overlooking Charley Young Beach.

True Hawaiian style is based on informality and lacks pretense. That's exactly what you’ll find here, a humble home situated on a spectacular oceanfront parcel of land in an old neighborhood. The studio apartment is in the back of the main house on the 2nd floor. The building is a weathered wood-frame structure and the interior is nicely appointed with an heirloom-style dining table and 2 chairs, Queen bed and a couch that pulls out into a full bed.
There are ocean views throughout the apartment and a screen door that opens up onto a small balcony with a garden view and just beyond that, a sandy beach. Has a private entrance, fully-equipped kitchen, bathroom with bath and beach towels. Amenities include air-conditioning, WI-FI, flat-screen T.V., beach chairs, umbrellas, and cooler.

Perfectly accommodates 2 guests but can sleep 3 people with the additional sleeper sofa.

The beach is a 30 second walk from the apartment. The front of the house has a spacious lawn with palm trees overlooking the ocean. Feel free to use the front yard, hammock and lounge chairs anytime.
A BBQ grill is available in the backyard and can be accessed under the stairs.
ALL GAS TANKS AND GRILL SWITCHES MUST BE TURNED OFF AFTER EACH USE.
The area past the grill along the side of main house is off limits and a private area for owner use only.
The Neighborhood
Charley Young Beach Park is well known for it's gentle surf and perfect for swimming, snorkeling, stand up paddle, fishing, and there's miles of sandy beach to walk in either direction. Most everything is a short car ride or walking distance to the beach house- grocery stores, farmers markets, coffee shops, cafes, restaurants and fine dining, shopping, entertainment, and all the accoutrements you can think of to keep happy and comfortable during your stay.

Other Things To Note
Remember that Hawaii is located in the sub tropics where plants, birds and insects are all part of the natural environment. We go through great lengths to clean and keep the studio bug free. Still, you may see an occasional critter. If you stay with us, you can help by emptying your trash everyday and not leaving any food out.

E Komo Mai! Welcome! We hope our guests enjoy the studio's vintage charm and the incredible beachfront property.

The studio looks exactly like in the listing. Everything was clean and in good repair. It had all the basics that we needed. The check-in instructions were the easiest and most clearly written than we've ever had. It's about a three minute walk to Charley Young Beach. We look forward to staying here again.

Very good place with an amazing location. Just steps from the incredible beach and owner has beach chairs and umbrellas to borrow. If you are looking for a lot of fancy stuff, this isn’t your place, but if you want easy access to the beaches and walking distance to a number of restaurants, it’s hard to beat this location. Plus, it’s centrally located on the island, so short trips can be made anywhere you want to go by car. We toured everything we wanted to see and still had plenty of time to chill on the beach each day.

Perfect location

We had a great ocean view from our upstairs studio. It was very spacious. The very short walk to the beach was perfect. Parking on the street or in the nearby parking lot was easy. The studio had an air conditioner but we left it off and opened the windows for a wonderful breeze.

Perfect spot right on the beach

This is a wonderful space with a full kitchen and view of the ocean. You can hear the waves through the open window. There's a good AC unit for the hotter days. The shower has good hot water and pressure. There is plenty of seating to just relax and enjoy the view and sounds. There is direct access to Charley Young beach park which is just as lovely as you can imagine. But it's also right on the main road to everything you need in Kihei. Walking distance to Kihei Kalama village. I wish I was still there.

Hawaiian Beach Vacation

About what we expected, was nice looking out the window and seeing the beach and ocean. Slept with the windows open and fell asleep to the sound of the waves. Location was perfect, parking was sometimes a challenge as there is no designated spots for this property. I would say the one thing that we weren't happy with was the towels didn't smell very good.

Another great stay

This is our fourth time staying at this property! It’s a great location and the studio is charming and comfortable. We watched whales breach from the patio. The location is on one of the best beaches in Maui. We used this as a home base to explore the island! We also appreciated the beach amenities Derrick and Arlene provided—chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards and more!

5 day stay January 2024

We really didn't know the history of the house until we talked to the owner. This is actually is the Charlie Young house. The current owner and his family co-own the house and kept it in the family. This house is right on the beach. This is not a new house. It was built after the war. It has some age, but also charm. Did I mention it was on the beach. Charlie Young beach and the start of Kamaole beach #1. The surf sound is almost to loud if you open all the windows. We watched most sunsets from the lawn of the property. Again this is not a new property or 5 star. But we had no problems and the owners were the kindest people. We also had a private parking space. Thanks Derrick and Arlene

Good location

Good location just off the beach with close proximity to shops, stores, and restaurants. Unfortunately we notified the property manager early in our 14 day stay that we had a bad kitchen faucet (leaky) and it was not fixed at the end of our stay. Some of the windows will not open properly and the lock on the sliding glass door is very difficult to use

Perfect for 2 on a budget

Only complaints, walls are supper thin and windows are louver not solid so you hear everything. Pretty quiet neighborhood so first part of stay was great waking up to the waves, but the early garbage truck that come two days during our stay and loud second neighbors were awful! So if you are a light sleeper might want to bring a sound machine. Shades were shear so thankful it was private, but we still kept the lights low. The yard to use you have to go out around the house, down the street to the opening in the gate to use, kind of weird. Also not enough towels for 4+ day stay, 1 per person with no washing machine is not enough. Thankfully we were there only 5 days or I would have requested clean towels. The shower and kitchen sink are tricky to turn on and off. Last the sliding glass door is really hard to lock. Other then that loved the location and it fit in our budget.

Unbeatable Location

First things first, the location is unreal. Steps from one of the best kept secret beaches on Maui. White sand, calm waters, and tide pools with numerous turtles and wildlife. Close to ABC and other shops and restaurants as well. The property itself is a no-frills kind of place, which is perfectly fine and what I was expecting. Two things I want to mention. First being the poor sound-proofing between neighbors. The people in the unit next to us by no means were being loud or unruly, but we could hear very clearly everything that was said or going on. It legitimately was like we had a third person in bed with us snoring. Second, the cleaning and general state of the unit was honestly a bit in disarray. Toothpaste scum all over the bathroom faucet, kitchen cabinets not closing/hanging off, the shower hot water dial being nearly impossible to figure out. If sound doesn’t bug you or it being a tad dated, this place really is a fantastic deal.

A most enjoyable stay

What a great location! We loved falling asleep and waking to the sound of the surf and wind rustling the palm trees. This beachfront studio is just what we had in mind for a convenient place to stay for our 6 days on Maui. Derrick and Arlene were very friendly and accommodating hosts. They provided us with beach chairs, umbrellas, beach towels, a propane grill, fresh bananas from their tree, and helpful advise regarding places to visit on the island. The unit is equipped with everything you would need, and is conveniently located within walking or short driving distance to restaurants, food trucks, and grocery stores. And of course...the beach. It's right out your window! We enjoyed swimming and napping on Charlie Young beach, and watching sunset from the sand, or the deck. You can't go wrong with this place if you don't have a big group.

The grassy oceanfront yard was also awesome for whale watching and relaxing. It's a special place!

affordable beach apartment

The location of this vacation rental is fabulous. We were able to walk from the door to the beach (one of the best beaches on the island) in 30 seconds. The hosts are generous with sharing beach items such as chairs, umbrellas, boogie boards, towels, and snorkeling gear. Kihei is centrally located on the island and worked well for easy day trips to Haleakala, Lahaina, Hana, Wailea, the harbor at Ma'alea and other West Maui sights. The apartment itself is simple and older, but has a nice view of the ocean and the afternoon breezes kept the temperature very comfortable without needing to use the air conditioner. The bed is comfortable. We were happy with our stay here.
