The front desk ladies were the best! Super friendly and helpful, with plenty of patience to give recommendations about the island. The location was perfectly in the middle of the island, so it was very easy and fast to drive to get where we needed - beaches, the ocean center, stores, restaurants, and even the hospital. The hotel provides guests with beach chairs, umbrellas, towels and also coolers. The only downside of the room was the shower curtain being a bit too short, so it was hard not to flood the bathroom when we showered. Still would totally recommend this stay!

It was fine for a night, but there were quite a lot of ants in the room, the sound on the tv didn’t work, and it all seemed a bit cheaply put together. In my opinion it was not worth the price we paid

Stay in Kehei

Excellent location and helpful staff, this is an older property with good room size, but it is very noisy with little insulation. Our bathroom window was broken and had to remain open so the noise level in our room was high. Good value for a large room.

The hotel is cute. I would have given 4 overall but the bathroom needs a little paint to modernize it. Kitchen is a sure plus and close parking is convenient. Beach is across the street. Front desk is very helpful. We stayed at the bottom floor. There may have been children above us who were running around at night.

It felt like visiting a family member’s home…the room was clean, stocked, and homie. Very personable staff, friendly and helpful. There are comfortable amenities: a cool little pool, bbq and seating areas and you can borrow beach chairs, towels and ice chests. Nice continental breakfast items and very good coffee. It’s literally across the street from the beach in Kihei, great location, close enough to the eats but private and away from the bustle. Great value and would highly recommend to anyone looking around Kihei on Maui, you won’t find a better value.
