Mahana 718

The view from the unit was absolutely amazing! What a beautiful ocean view! We loved having the sliders open allowing the ocean breeze to flow thru even keeping them open at night to listen to the crashing waves. The unit was spotlessly clean and well stocked with all the kitchen utensils, dishes and pans you may need for a longer stay. We appreciated the beach chairs that were available for our use and the ability to do laundry right in the unit. The one and only downside was that the microwave wasn’t working but with some ingenuity on our part we managed to work around that. All in all a great place to stay and we would definitely book this unit again in the future! Mahalo!

This is one of our favorite condos that we have ever stayed in. You seriously feel like you’re on a cruise ship watching the waves roll in outside your huge windows! Beautiful unit. They have beach chairs and umbrellas and towels to use on the beach. Dukes is a short walk to the resort next door. Management was on point will any of our needs. We cannot wait to come back!

Beautiful condo with gorgeous ocean front views! We loved the location and the property. Nice pool and hot tub and

The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Mahatma 718 was equipped with everything we could possibly need for our stay in Maui. The furnishings and amenities met our expectations. The views from this unit were incredible! We really enjoyed spending time in the lanai in the mornings and evenings, because of the views. The only drawback was that there was no A/C during our stay, but were made aware of this issue when we made our reservation. We would definitely return to this location and this unit once the A/C service is up and running.

Beautiful home with excellent ocean views, easy access to the beach perfect get away for a great vacation.

From the moment we entered the unit we knew that we had chosen the perfect place for our stay in Maui. The condo was in perfect condition, exactly as pictured and described. And the location was amazing! Walk out the condo right to the beach, with great snorkeling right there. The sun set directly in front of our Lanai every evening, a spectacular vision. All you need for the beach is provided - chairs, umbrellas, cooler, water jugs, even beach toys if you have kids - we couldn't have asked for more. And the management company was very communicative - making sure we were able to get into the unit okay, checking in during our stay and reminding us of the check-out procedures. Supermarket, Snorkel Bobs, a few restaurants and a huge food truck set-up are all right across the street, all within walking distance. We never used the pool, but it was a nice area as well with chairs, loungers, tables with umbrella's, etc. We highly recommend this rental unit and will choose it again the next time we are able to return to Maui.

Especially when you see the whales showing off right before your eyes! Very clean with comfortable furniture and bed.

Great unit with a great view and even better customer support. Highly recommend.

Fantastic trip to Maui in this beautiful property! Whales were right in front breaching all day long. Turtles were swimming right down below our balcony. Property was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Location was very central to activities, restaurants and walking paths. Food trucks very close too which was a nice break from a restaurant. Snorkeling right outside our place was incredible!! The view from this property was so amazing. We loved it and will be back!!!

The property was beautiful with a terrific view of the water, the sunset and the whales. It was equipped with everything we needed to prepare food. There’s a grocery store, several restaurants and multiple food trucks within walking distance. I would stay again.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Mahana 718 is a beautiful condo that is oceanfront and high enough to view whales, turtles and in our case a Hawaiian monk seal. We had 2 small problems. The check in process was confusing. We were not familiar with the property. There are multiple towers on the property and no one attends any of the desks in the lobby of the property. The a/c in the condo is loud and runs most of the time. Other than these 2 problems, the condo was wonderful and we would stay again.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The unit was great, was just how it was pictured. We saw turtles from our balcony! They have beach chairs, towels, cooler and umbrella to use while you’re there. Loved the restaurants around the unit, Duke’s was a favorite and L&L Hawaiian BBQ. Near great beaches, we had a great time and would love to stay again.

When I go back to Maui, I will absolutely stay in this unit again! From the basic location-location-location to the subtle details (7th floor and this particular location in relation to the palm trees) is perfection. It's beautifully appointed, right down to the fact that they included water jugs and sunscreens for outings! The lanai is perfectly situated - any lower and we would have heard the waves a bit too much (maybe)...any higher and we wouldn't have had such a fantabulous view of the SEA TURTLES that were constantly showing off below our room. A bit to the right and a gorgeous palm tree may have been in our way - a bit to the left, and - well, it was perfectly situated! The beach in front of the unit is an amazing place to snorkel! There was NO ONE on our beach or in the water where we were (except us) ~ the snorkeling was just as good as some of the bays we visited, including Honoloa, which is supposed to be among the best. We LOVED the L&L Hawaiian restaurant across the street as well as the amazing food trucks adjacent to the property. Everything we needed, including a grocery store, snorkel gear, food... was within easy walking distance. Overall, the resort is in a great location - just north of Lahaina, but out of the way of the crowded resorts like Sheraton (still within walking distance of Black Rock, albeit a bit of a jaunt). The team was responsive when we had questions before we arrived. We give it an EASY 100% perfect rating!

Overall a great stay! Loved being right next to the ocean. Kept the glass door open all night to sleep to the sound of the waves. Clean updated condo with prompt communication from the host.

The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This condo was an incredible place to stay! The views from the lanai and the living area window were to die for. The air conditioning worked well, the kitchen was well stocked with cookware and dishes. Everything was clean, updated, and very well organized. Bed was very comfortable. The location was amazing, within walking distance of multiple beaches, 7 min drive to Whalers Village. We saw sea turtles every single day at the beach directly below the condo. Some very minor construction noise noted in the surrounding condos but nothing horrible. Would highly recommend this place!

Great property, pictures don’t do it justice! Sit on the balcony and watch turtles below! Walk 200 yards to Dukes! Or 2 miles to whalers village all on the boardwalk!

Could not ask for a better stay. Exactly as pictured, great communication with property manager, quiet and peaceful, beautiful stretch of beach, easy access to everything we wanted to do... Loved every minute.

The unit was extremely clean and had everything you could possibly need and more. The location was excellent and the pool and beach access were excellent. The hosts were always quick and responsive and very accommodating. I would recommend this place to anyone and you will not be disappointed. It was probably the best experience we’ve ever had with this kind of booking.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay here was outstanding! The view cannot be beat. It feels like you are out on the water. The unit had everything we needed to make our stay easy and comfortable. We especially like the backpack cooler since we were traveling with kids and needed to be as hands free as possible. We would not hesitate to stay here again! Our only recommendation is that they should replace the lanai chairs. They were rusting and stained some of our clothing just from sitting in them and hanging things to dry on them.

My husband and I came here for just two days of rest and relaxation after working several days on another island. The listing said that you may see Whales through the end of March. Well, we were not hopeful, since it was the very end of March. Boy were we surprised, we saw them breaching -whole families of them. It was just amazing. The unit is very very clean and modern and just so very comfortable to be in. We are so happy we found this listing and would certainly come again.

It's everything the listing says it is. Terrific place.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay in Maui was terrific with waking up and watching the whales with our morning coffee from our condo being a highlight. Our place was fantastic! It had a gorgeous ocean view from the balcony off of the bedroom & from the living area. It was renovated, beautifully decorated, well provisioned with kitchen, bath & outdoor play items as well as having a washer & dryer. We loved our thoughtful welcome gift & appreciated having coffee on hand as we arrived late in the day. We definitely recommend this condo & the Stice Management team.

This was a spectacular place to stay. We saw numerous whales out our window every day. The condo was super clean and comfortable. Communication with the owner was timely and helpful. We slept with the sliding door open to listen to the surf crashing just below us. We truly appreciated the coolers, beach chairs, and beach towels. So convenient to have a washer/dryer. The views were just as good from the two chairs by the living room window as they were from the lanai. We had an absolutely wonderful stay.

Great condo and great views.

The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We spent 3 of 5 weeks in this condo in Hawaii. Loved the building complex and folks there - staff was wonderful and friendly. The complex is probably a little better suited for mature couples or people without children as the beach is sandy but due to the coral, there is no swimming in front of the complex. A short 1/2 mile boardwalk took us to the public beach. The condo could really use either a new furnace/air conditioning system or a tune-up. It did cool the unit but it was so terribly noisy to run that it often was easier just to turn it off.

MY WIFE AND I WERE BORN ON THE SAME DAY SO WE WERE LOOKING FOR SOMEWHERE SPECIAL TO CELEBRATE ONE OF OUR MILESTONE BIRTHDAYS. WE CHOOSE 718 MAHANA AND COULDN'T BE HAPPIER. GGREAT VIEWS COMPLETE WITH MAGNIFICENT SUNSETS. THE CONDO WAS WELL EQUIPPED, BEAUTIFULLY FURNISHED AND VERY CLEAN. THIS WAS OUR ELEVENTH TIME TO VISIT THE ISLANDS AND THIS WAS ONE OF THE BEST STAYS EVER!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We couldn't have been more happy with our experience at Mahana 718. You couldn't ask for anything more from the was hard to tear ourselves away from the lanai every evening. The condo itself was clean, up-to-date and really well equipped (we especially appreciated the well-stocked beach closet with beach bags, chairs, umbrellas etc.). The only nitpick I have is that I think it's time for a new mattress (it noticeably sloped to one side), but like a said...a nitpick. We look forward to returning to this property soon!

No resort has a better view for whale watching or is closer to the water than Mahana.

The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay was wonderful at the Mahana - absolutely beautiful condo with a killer view. Bed was comfortable - very roomy - kitchen well stocked. Good quality beach chairs and towels to use. Only negative was 1) No light on outside lanai so to sit outside at night was by moonlight only. Would be nice to even have a lantern or something to play cards on the deck in the evening. 2) The beach out front has a lot of coral.... you have to walk down to find a bit sandier of an entrance.... but we've come to expect that from most of the beaches in Kaanpali. Would 100% return.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My husband and I booked the Mahana 718 after doing a lot of research on hotels and condos in the area. We wanted privacy, a view of the water, and a homey feel.We couldn't have anticipated how wonderful our stay would be. The condo had just changed ownership and there was brand new furniture, appliances and beach supplies. The owners and Hawaii Life clearly put so much thought into making the condo comfortable and stylish. That view!!! I still can't get over it!Megan from Hawaii Life greeted us on our check in and welcomed us into the unit. There was a thoughtful welcome package and a helpful binder on local restaurants, activities, and services. Megan was available to answer questions and concerns for us during our stay, but we really didn't contact her at all since everything was so perfect.The beach equipment was brand new and of great quality. Everything was sparkling clean! The only slight negative (and this is so minor) was that the washer/dryer was older and couldn't hold a lot in it.We wholeheartedly recommend the Mahana 718 for anyone looking for a quiet slice of paradise! We will definitely be back.

The view is by far the best! We whale watched from our lanai! It was also nice to have beach chairs, coolers, beach towels and a washer/dryer! Megan (property manager) left us a little welcome package and was available for any question we had. We would hands down stay there again...truly a wonderful place!

Reviewer Comments: Upon arriving and meeting Megan to get acquainted with the grounds and a tour of the room we were very happy with our selection to stay at Mahana 718. It has been updated and offers amazing views of the ocean and is close to everything you'll need.

We saw turtles everyday from the room.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Location is right on the beach with great sunset views. You do have to walk a little to be able to swim in the ocean but that wasn’t a big deal. Would definitely stay here again.

We enjoyed our stay in Maui. The condo was as advertised and everything we could hope for. We read a prior review saying Mahana 718 was like being on a cruise ship…and they were right! Went to sleep every night to the sound of crashing waves. Awesome stay!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was a great experience! We loved our 12 night stay at Mahana 718 & we were sad to leave. The condo was clean, had a gorgeous view & met all of our needs. We loved the location at the end of the beach walk. It was near the action but still quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed relaxing by the pool after busy days of exploring Maui. We would definitely stay here again!

If you’re looking to stay on the water, I don’t think there is a closer condo than this! The view is absolutely breathtaking. The property management team was fantastic at communicating stay details, and I loved all the little extras thrown in like the chocolates! If you’re staying in Kaanapali this is a MUST!

Communicative hosts, views for days, rainbows, whales and all the amenities you need for an amazing stay. The Lanai furniture needs a refresh, but otherwise an amazing property and location.

We were scheduled to stay at the same condo complex, but our co do booking got canceled due to maintenance. We were moved to a respite near by, but the view was not what I’d paid for and we were very upset. I checked VRBO and there this condo was. It hadn’t been available when we first got to Maui. I got ahold of Meghan and she booked us for the rest of our trip at a great price. She made everything so welcoming and homey. I loved our stay and thank Meghan for helping my Hawaiian dreams come true.

Highly recommend this location and unit.

Great condo on the beach just north of Kaanapali. Easy check-in, quiet and comfortable.

Easy as can be

The Condo was just as it was in photos and the view was spectacular.

This property was beautiful. Location is everything. Being able to walk the beach path every day made my trip. We enjoyed our daily whale watch from those comfy chairs. What a treat it was to stay at this location. Comfy bed, clean, well stocked and easy communication. Thanks for a great stay.

We stayed at the Mahana many years ago on our first visit to Maui and the property is just as lovely as it was then. We would highly recommend this particular condo as it has everything you need and the location is perfect.

Great location! Great view!

Having a floor-to-ceiling panoramic view of the ocean and sandy beach from the living room and lanai really set this condo apart from any other we have stayed at in Hawaii. Amenities were great. We will definitely be back!

Property is just like the photos, located on the beach walk so you can walk from the condo all the way to Black Rock. Good restaurants nearby and a Farmers Market. Easy short drive to Lahaina ! Bed was comfortable. Kitchen well equipped. Barbecue grills outside we’re very nice. Pool is small and limited but clean and lots of lounge chairs. Really great location and vacation!

Literally perfect!

Great place to stay in West Maui. Private location, good beach access and great views. Nicely updated place, we’ll be back!

Beautiful view and beach, we had perfect weather and if we come back to Maui this is where we would prefer to stay.

I had a great time at Mahana #718. The check-in was smooth and just as outlined in the instructions. Communication with Megan was prompt and she quickly responded to any questions I had. The condo was beautiful—a breathtaking view as soon as you open the front door! This was a beautiful condo and a fabulous experience!

Wonderful time. Great views. Could not have worked out better for us. We saved thousands vs going to one of the nearby resorts. Thank you!

The property was exactly what we needed (family of 4). The bed was comfortable and the beach gear was a very nice touch. Having the AC was a must in August. The management company was very professional and is even willing to work with us about some unexpected remodeling noise in another unit. Overall great experience. We would stay again!

This is the second time we have stayed at the Aston Mahana Resort and it is our favorite. We had a 1 bedroom unit. You literally have floor to ceiling windows of the ocean! It looks like you are on a cruise ship you are THAT close to the ocean. This unit was beautifully decorated and very clean. They even had a box of chocolate macadamia nuts waiting for us. Everything worked as well! Usually something doesn’t work when you stay somewhere but everything worked great and I felt that they really had thought of everything you would need. We certainly plan to come back! Aloha!

We really enjoyed the view from both the living room and the lanai. Perfect height and close the water with zero obstructions. Having AC was huge as we were staying during record breaking heat. Checkin was easy, building and condo well equipped. Loved our stay and would stage again for sure

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We've stayed at the Mahana before so we knew we'd have gorgeous views, lovely grounds, and a convenient location for shopping and strolling the beach boardwalk. There was a little glitch with the door code, but Megan responded quickly, and the issue was resolved. Other reviewers have mentioned the yucky carpet, and it was indeed a definite disappointment; however, we were told it was being replaced as soon as we departed. That's great for future tenants but a bummer for us recent renters. The screen doors were a bit temperamental-perhaps a little grease on the rails would help them glide more smoothly? Otherwise, the condo was clean and well-stocked with kitchen, bathroom and beach items. We appreciated the comfy couch and bed. We loved our trip to Maui and can't wait to return!

Megan was helpful with some light that were out. Her and her husband provided good customer service. It was nice being so close to Dukes and the walking path. Mahana is such a lovely place to stay, love the big windows to look out at the ocean, to enjoy the turtles and watching the sunset. Everything was wonderful except the carpet was very dirty.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was our second stay at Mahana, this time we came with family, three rooms total. Our room was clean and very comfortable. We were pleasantly surprised to find beach chairs, towels, and toys in the closet (very convenient). Our grandson enjoyed building sand castles and boogie boarding right outside our door. We were there for our son’s wedding and our daughter’s engagement. Lahaina is just down the road, 10 minute trip to all the restaurants and shops you could ask for. Make meals in your condo or go out, it’s up to you. There are many grills available if you want to BBQ. Walk across the street to great restaurants, grocery shopping, snorkeling equipment. We flew to Kapalua airport this time instead of Kahului (I recommend). Our favorite places to dine were Captain Jack’s, Kimo’s, Paia Fishmarket, Java Jazz, and The Mill House. Don’t miss Old Lahaina Luau, the best luau on the island. When we come back we will stay here again.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Positives: The condo was just as expected, perhaps better with the view, not sure any picture can do that justice. Well stocked with towels and beach supplies. Kitchen was great. We really enjoyed falling asleep to the sound of the ocean every night and the new bed was VERY comfortable. The pull out sofa slept my 11-yo step daughter and she said it was great. It was very easy to use at night and a quick clean up each morning. We really loved this place and have recommended it to friends, hoping to come back soon! Negatives: these are all super minor, really nit-picking here but as others have said the carpet is very outdated. Really wouldn't care about that but I did step on a carpet tack and that wasn't pleasant; just moved a rug to cover that area. The Lanai also didn't have any outdoor lighting which was a bummer for dinner. Lastly management was about 50/50 for responding but when they did they were very helpful and pleasant. I believe it's 2 people so it's possible that I was just always contacting one and it could have been their day off :). Nothing was urgent though so everything worked out great!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Mahana 718 is exactly as described in the listing. It's very well-kept, nicely decorated, and very clean. The kitchen has everything you need for cooking and baking. The hall closet is stocked with all the beach gear you'll need, including two large cooler bags, which was so nice! Some old reviews said something about the bed being uncomfortable, but they must have replaced it since then, because it was lovely. The owner/manager was very responsive and accommodating, even granting our last- minute request for a late check-out. The location is awesome; besides being directly on the beach, there are grocery shopping and restaurants very nearby. A great moped rental place is a short walk up the street. Duke's Beach House restaurant next door is an awesome place for dinner or happy hour (have the hula pie for dessert). All the nearby resorts were upscale and the neighborhood was amazing. The Mahana grounds are beautiful and the pool is gorgeous. If we were to return to Maui, I wouldn't even consider staying anywhere else!

The owners provide everything needed for the beach - chairs, umbrellas, towels, etc.. the check in and check out process was very simple and the location of Mahana to restuarants and the beach walk was perfect. We would definitely stay here again. One minor issue was the bed was in need of a new mattress but that wouldn’t stop us from staying again. Thanks so much for everything.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We couldn't have been more happy with our experience at Mahana 718. You couldn't ask for anything more from the was hard to tear ourselves away from the lanai every evening. The condo itself was clean, up-to-date and really well equipped (we especially appreciated the well-stocked beach closet with beach bags, chairs, umbrellas etc.). The only nitpick I have is that I think it's time for a new mattress (it noticeably sloped to one side), but like a said...a nitpick. We look forward to returning to this property soon!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay at Mahana 718 was perfect. The views were gorgeous, the condo was well decorated, stocked and very clean. Check in process was super easy. My husband and I spent lots of time out on the lanai sipping coffee in the morning and wine at night. The views are to die for. The ocean is so close and it would lull us to sleep every night. Mahana's location is also excellent. There are a few restaurants within walking distance and it was a short drive for anything else we wanted to do in the area. We hope to be back someday! Thanks for sharing your beautiful home with us! Kara and Rob Chicago, IL PS - I don't like that the review forces us to answer all of the questions in addition to our free form review. It makes it clunky for folks reading the reviews.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Mahana is a wonderful property if you are looking for a quiet getaway where you can do your own thing, and focus on the surroundings. All condos are true oceanfront, and the view does not get any better, not even at any of the other 5+ star properties. There's a pool, hot tub, and bbq's so you can prepare dinner to enjoy on your lanai to watch the sunset over the ocean. If you want pool slides, hotel bars, gym, etc then this is not the place for you. Our unit had upgraded LR furniture, a beautiful upgraded kitchen, state of the art TVs. Check in and checkout was a breeze. We had a maintenance issue but it was handled very quickly and professionally. On the downside, the carpet needs to be cleaned or replaced (not sure), and while the rest of the condo was clean, the shower doors need a professional cleaning. Overall, I'm sure management will be addressing the carpet and shower door issues and with so many other incredible attributes going for it I would recommend this vacation rental.

The condo was well equipped with anything you might need. Really appreciated the beach closet with chairs, towels, coolers etc. The Mahana was in a great location, convenient to nearby groceries and restaurants. Everything went so well from booking to check-in. Jeremy and his staff were so nice and made sure we were doing well. We stayed 2 weeks in Maui. The 1st week in west Maui at the Mahana and the 2nd week in south Maui at a resort. LET ME MAKE IT CLEAR WE MOURNED NOT BEING AT THE MAHANA!!! If we could do it over we would have stayed the entire time at our wonderful condo!!!

We spent a little over a week at Mahana 718. The condo is exactly as described. The views are amazing. We couldn't take our eyes off the windows the entire time we were there. It has almost everything you could need. We did purchase some tongs for cooking on the grill downstairs, but otherwise the unit was fully stocked. We had a great visit and were close to good restaurants, the beach, pool, night life and groceries. I would definitely consider this unit again when we return to Maui.

The pictures reflect the actual condo. The whole building was very nice, parking was easy, the condo was very quiet and did I mention the views!! We could hear the waves crashing (it is rocky due to coral right outside the building so swim/enter the water further down the beach).

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This will have been our 3rd time using VRBO to book a Maui stay. 3 years in a row. I love using VRBO because the variety of options. We have stayed along Kaanapali beach each stay. Our first visit was at Maui Kai and we loved the corner penthouse condo. But, overtime we walked by Mahana, we said how much we would like to stay there. So, the next year and this year we did stay at Mahana. Last year was a studio and was wonderful. We stayed 17 nights, and that was an amazing visit. This year we made a last minute reservation as we were not planning on a Maui trip at all. We were lucky enough that the Mahana 718 was available. The 1br/1ba was beautiful, appointed with everything we needed. The balcony was great, but the open living room and HUGE floor to ceiling windows were such a bonus. Our stay was short, only 7 nights. We could easily spend 2 weeks or longer in this condo. The Mahana property itself was under some remodeling. There was a bit of inconvenience, but it did not ruin our fun. The grounds remained beautiful and inviting. The pool area was clean and relaxing with a view of the ocean just steps away.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Mahana 718 is perfectly located along the Ka'anapali coast. It was an easy drive to Lahaina and to all the wonderful northwest Maui beaches. Great snorkeling, with a variety of sea life, was just steps from the door. Watching the sunset between Lanai and Molokai was such a peaceful way to mark the end of each day. The condo was clean, quiet, well maintained and inviting. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes and cooking utensils. We used the beach gear daily. Did we mention the awesome view?! Jeremy was kind and prompt when dealing with slight check-in glitch. I would highly recommend this accommodation and hope to return again and again!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were on our honeymoon. The views and sound of the waves were probably our favorite thing. The condo was nicely stocked easy to navigate. Bonus:ice maker! My only complaint would be the bedding. The bed was too soft for us and the down comforter was too heavy. I ended up buying a light weight blanket to use. The location was great. Very easy to get to from the main road. Pool and hot tub were awesome. The beach entry is rocky right in front but just to the south the beach is more sandy. The beach walk just through the gate was fantastic. We tried to recycle as much as we could, but a container for recyclables would have been nice. Would stay here again!

MY WIFE AND I WERE BORN ON THE SAME DAY SO WE WERE LOOKING FOR SOMEWHERE SPECIAL TO CELEBRATE ONE OF OUR MILESTONE BIRTHDAYS. WE CHOOSE 718 MAHANA AND COULDN'T BE HAPPIER. GGREAT VIEWS COMPLETE WITH MAGNIFICENT SUNSETS. THE CONDO WAS WELL EQUIPPED, BEAUTIFULLY FURNISHED AND VERY CLEAN. THIS WAS OUR ELEVENTH TIME TO VISIT THE ISLANDS AND THIS WAS ONE OF THE BEST STAYS EVER!

This property is a beautiful, well-decorated condo and our stay there was everything we hoped for. The property manager was very helpful, friendly and oriented us quickly and effectively. The resort is quiet and relaxing in contrast to some of the bigger resorts up and down the beach. Specifically, this unit has a beautiful private lanai that offers spectacular beach and ocean view from its seventh floor location. Time can slip away as you watch whales breech and spout from the living room or lanai with the islands of Molokai and Lanai as their backdrop. Beautiful sunsets just capped off the days. The unit provides beach towels, chairs, coolers and boogie board making a trip to the great beaches easy and delightful. A small shopping center just a short walk away was very convenient for any essentials. We will definitely plan another stay, next time for sure a little longer.

We had all the beach equipment (beach chairs, boogie boards, beach umbrellas, beach bags and towels,etc) that we needed. The condo was very comfortable and the views of the ocean,islands,and sunsets are perfect. Good location, close to grocery store, farmers market, fish market, ABC store, resturants, etc. This is my second time to stay at this Resort and would definitely stay again. You just can't beat the views especially during the whale season.

No resort has a better view for whale watching or is closer to the water than Mahana.

The unit is clean and equipped with everything you will need for your stay, from kitchen utensils to beach supplies. The décor was tropical, but tasteful. Excellent value for having the ocean right outside your unit, and the location is close to many amenities like restaurants and grocery stores. Building is quiet and safe. Loved this unit and would definitely stay here again.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This place is by far the best condo we've ever stayed in Maui! The location is great--the beach is perfect for walking, snorkeling, or lounging. There's a boardwalk that goes about 1 mile but you can go even further if you get around the black rock. The view is spectacular. And the best part, the condo has everything you could need: binoculars, beach towels, beach chairs, extra sunscreen, and a great kitchen with sharp knives and quality pots/pans.

It's right on the beach, sort of on the outside of the super busy resorts. Pool and spa was available every day-never overcrowded.

Reviewer Comments: Upon arriving and meeting Megan to get acquainted with the grounds and a tour of the room we were very happy with our selection to stay at Mahana 718. It has been updated and offers amazing views of the ocean and is close to everything you'll need.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our stay was wonderful at the Mahana - absolutely beautiful condo with a killer view. Bed was comfortable - very roomy - kitchen well stocked. Good quality beach chairs and towels to use. Only negative was 1) No light on outside lanai so to sit outside at night was by moonlight only. Would be nice to even have a lantern or something to play cards on the deck in the evening. 2) The beach out front has a lot of coral.... you have to walk down to find a bit sandier of an entrance.... but we've come to expect that from most of the beaches in Kaanpali. Would 100% return.

We absolutely loved our stay at the Mahana #718. We were on our honeymoon and it could not have been anymore perfect. The view is by far the best! We whale watched from our lanai! It was also nice to have beach chairs, coolers, beach towels and a washer/dryer! Megan (property manager) left us a little welcome package and was available for any question we had. We would hands down stay there again...truly a wonderful place!

This was our second stay at the Mahana, however we loved the one bedroom layout of 718 so much more than the studio we stayed at before (plus no palm tree blocking our view this time!). The condo was perfect - comfortable furniture, all the amenities and kitchen gadgets you could think of and a lovely fresh remodel. Though there isn't a beach, the water view couldn't be beat. We enjoyed our walks on the boardwalk all the way down to the Sheraton and watching surfers straight out from our balcony. Two tips: the switch for the dishwasher is on the wall behind the sink and the washer needs a solid door-drop to start. Once we figured out these two steps - we were good to go. Loved being able to walk to the grocery store, coffee shop, pizza and snorkeling gear. Short drive to excellent turtle spots at Napili and Kapalua bays. Thank you so much for a great birthday getaway!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My husband and I booked the Mahana 718 after doing a lot of research on hotels and condos in the area. We wanted privacy, a view of the water, and a homey feel. We couldn't have anticipated how wonderful our stay would be. The condo had just changed ownership and there was brand new furniture, appliances and beach supplies. The owners and Hawaii Life clearly put so much thought into making the condo comfortable and stylish. That view!!! I still can't get over it! Megan from Hawaii Life greeted us on our check in and welcomed us into the unit. There was a thoughtful welcome package and a helpful binder on local restaurants, activities, and services. Megan was available to answer questions and concerns for us during our stay, but we really didn't contact her at all since everything was so perfect. The beach equipment was brand new and of great quality. Everything was sparkling clean! The only slight negative (and this is so minor) was that the washer/dryer was older and couldn't hold a lot in it. We wholeheartedly recommend the Mahana 718 for anyone looking for a quiet slice of paradise! We will definitely be back.

We actually already booked another stay at Mahana #718 for February after our stay at the end of September! The views are really great. The location is really nice. Snorkeling from the beach just behind the Mahana is really fun -- tons of different fish just feet from the shore. I'm looking forward to our next trip.
