Awesome location, great views
Unit is clean, well-maintained and in an awesome spot on the beach with great views from the lanai. Rental includes cooler, beach towels and chairs, which is helpful. It's a short drive from a cute downtown area with restaurants and shops.
We got in on a late flight and had a bit of a challenge finding the unit (the reception office was closed) but the communication with the management company in advance was excellent. Would recommend.

3rd Honeymoon!
Wonderful 8 day stay!
Clean, spacious, awesome view, decent size Lani, kitchen stocked (Apparently I just don't know how to cook on stainless steel pots..lol!), Washer, Dryer, great parking, AC worked very well, nice bed, beach wasn't crowded, nice furniture, all the TV you needed on a Hawaiian vacation, friendly staff it had it all!
Observation.. no beach umbrella that I could find in the property, shower is on the small side if you are taller ( I am around "6.1).
Walmart has found its way to Maui.. not a fan, I liked it without a Walmart.. but it is not too far down the street.
No contact with the owners, because property management was great and condo was too!

Beautiful Sugar Beach Resort!
Condo was very clean and had everything we needed. Property manager was attentive and the grounds at Sugar Beach Resort were very nice. Great pool, hot tub and sauna. Best walking beach on the island right outside your door. Tons of whale watching from the lanai. We will be back!

Exactly what we needed
My husband and I came to Maui to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary and my birthday. The condo was perfect. It had everything we needed, all we had to pick up was groceries and alcohol. We walked the beach everymorning at 6-6:30am.
Spending 6 days in Paradise.
Thank you so much we had an amazing vacation.

Nice space and central location
Wonderful view, clean, everything worked and kitchen is stocked with all appliances and cookware you need. If you require a comfy soft bed to sleep, this place might NOT be a good fit. Also couldn’t enjoy the balcony since there were tons of insects hanging on the screen each day - told management, but no action was taken.
