Located on the top floor of Island Sands, the tallest complex in Maalaea, this condo will offer you incredible views of the ocean, Molokini, Kaho'olawe, and whales when they are visiting. You'll love coming home and watching sunsets from here as the AC units keep you cool, the WiFi keeps you in touch with the world, and the pool keeps you refreshed.

What's nearby:
You are within walking distance of Maalaea Harbor and shops. In the harbor, try heading out on a whale-watching cruise with Pacific Whale Foundation, a snorkeling adventure with Trilogy, or a sunset cruise on the Ali'i Nui.

Take advantage of the restaurants there such as Seascape or Beach Bum's. When you venture out, head south about 7 miles into Kihei town for local beaches such as Charley Young, amazing fish tacos at Coconut's, and the shopping at the Shops of Wailea. Just south, you'll find a four-mile stretch of beach which is a great spot for paddle boarding, walking, and watching for whales.

Upon arrival the main bedroom had sand or dirt in the bed and hair particles. Overall the condo was nice and the view was nice. Because bed was dirty it lead my mind to believe the condo was not properly cleaned. I washed all the sheets myself properly.

Could be better
This condo is all about the ocean view. Fabulous. Pool and barbecue are great also. Yes it is windy. All day, every day. Not that big of a deal for us. Bathrooms were good. Beds were comfortable. Kitchen was good. Washer/dryer was good. Unit is a little dated but not bad. Now the bad. There is no A/C in the unit. The small window unit is useless in the living area and there is a note above it saying to not use it anyway. You can prop open the front door and the wind will blow through like a freight train to help cool off the living room. 2 bedrooms, one in front, one in back. We used the one in front. The only window wouldn’t open so no air flow in there. Thank God for the ceiling fan, box fan, and small fan on each night stand. Even with those we still slept with no covers on. The ceiling fan light chain didn’t work and 2 of the 4 bulbs were missing. I had to unscrew and rescrew the 2 bulbs to turn them off and on. There was no place to plug our phones and my CPAP on the night stands. I had to buy an extension cord and move the bed to plug it in and then plug my stuff in. There’s a window in line with the pillows. The blinds are fabric and useless. The first morning at 5:30am the whole room lights up from the sun. I had to hang a folded sheet to cover it. To the owners, fix the ceiling fan/fans. They are cheap to buy. Put an alarm clock/USB/outlet on each nightstand. It’s 2023 for Gods sake and people want to plug in their phones and CPAPs.

It’s ok.
The condo is outdated. Beds and living room furniture need to be updated, so uncomfortable! There is one A/C unit in the living room which pushes out very minimal air. And the rest of the unit is so stuffy it’s hard to breath when you try to sleep. Fans are provided which helped some! The pool was the best part of the condo, unless you have kids. The people seem stuck up, and lots of rules.

Great view with nice updates.
Great view and layout. Nicely updated and comfy beds. Was 88 every day for 2 weeks and didn't need ac once. Keep in mind it'll be breezy, extremely. Some of the beach equipment was pretty shot and only had 2 chairs for a 2 bedroom that was disappointing since we had 4 adults. But overall happy with the stay

Great view and very quiet complex.
This was a perfect fit for our visit. Traveling with an elder that doesn't do well with steps, and having an elevator was great. The view was fantastic and enjoyed watching the surfers. Nice to be centrally located between Kihei and Lahaina, but without all the crowds. We look forward to a return visit!

Nice central location
The location is in a nice central location to be able to explore the island. Very little within walking distance of the condo as far as dining and shopping. It is a short walk to the Haycraft park with nice beach access. This is definitely the windiest part of the island but the lanai is situated to largely protect you from the wind and the wind made the air conditioner unnecessary in December. The other thing I haven't seen mentioned is that the condo is right under the flight path for the planes landing at the airport and can get loud at busy times of the day. The building is very dated but the condo is clean and well stocked. Overall it was a good experience!

Extremely clean property, unit and pool. The unit was very well maintained and stocked with any amenity you might need. In case you're not familiar with this region, it is a windy location. It was actually nice in keeping you cool on the warmer days. It was also nice to not have to pay additional fees for parking. Great stay!

Great location / views. Also very windy and needs upgrades.
We stayed for 8 days and the location is great. The views are beautiful the pool is well maintained. That is where the plusses end however. The first few days of our stay there was an unrelenting windstorm. I mention this because some of the windows of the apartment are not full pane but have adjustable overlapping slats. So the two option were to close them and let the wind howl or to open them and sleep in a wind tunnel. Fortunately for the remaining days the wind died down. Just as a point of reference Maalaea has a huge wind farm visible from the balcony. The apartment when we arrived had cleanliness issues: coffee-maker, washing machine, glasses were all uncleaned. There was also a thick musty smell when we arrived. The AC was connected to a non functioning electrical outlet which I fixed. However the condensed water from the window-mounted AC was not properly drained but it had a tray underneath that you had to periodically empty!!! The dishwasher was also out of service during our stay.
