Kamaole Sands 10-417

We had a wonderful stay at this condo. It has a nice view of the ocean, is a short walk to the beach (which is also a great snorkeling spot) and has all the necessities, including beach items (chairs, umbrella, snorkel equipment, boogie boards, etc.). You can walk to a few restaurants (including ice cream and a great cinnamon roll place), although we generally drove into town for our meals (our favorite - Paia Fish Market). The only negative is that the TVs are not smart TVs so you need to bring your own ROKU or Chrome Cast to see your favorite streaming channels. Also, the TV in the main guest room is super tiny and there's no TV in the other bedroom or loft. We did have a leak issue but it was quickly taken care of by the management company (and everyone was really nice). I would highly recommend this condo (and Kamaole Sands in general).

Good morning and sorry for the late response. This was our second vacation in Maui and both times staying at the Kamaole Sands, and we very much enjoy the area and the Island. Upon arriving and entering our unit, the cleanliness was not to our satisfaction. There were actual spider webs on top of the lamps, which we took pictures of and showed to the property management, the exterior of the cupboards needing cleaning, and the glass doors to the lanai were not clean as well, with the vented doors on the lanai very dirty also. Furthermore, there were light bulbs burnt out and plumbing problems, but we did call and eventually got those replaced and fixed. Overall the unit requires some TLC and repair. The bath/shower in the loft needs to be replaced/updated, new flooring/tile is required throughout, as I don't understand why anyone would have carpet in a beachside rental unit, and the whole unit requires new paint. Something also needs to be done with the front facing of the counters to the dining/living room area. Overall, while I would recommend the Kamaole Sands to others, I would not recommend the unit we were in at this time.

This is an excellent condo with an amazing view. Great for a larger family, well stocked and an amazing view from the large lanai. We would definitely rent again. Check in an check out was smooth.

We stayed at this complex before, so we knew it was a nice area. Beach across the street. Restaurants within walking distance.
Unit was well equipped. Appreciated the beach essentials, like towels, chairs and snorkel gear.
The only negatives are that the mattress definitely due to be replaced. It sinks in the middle. Old and should be thrown out. Fridge has freezer leaking into fridge, so that was a minor inconvenience. Everything else was good.
Would stay here again.

Walk to a beautiful public beach. The grounds and the pool are well maintained. The unit was a little too warm in the summer. Maybe the AC needs service?

Fantastic location great apartment, However, there were a few things that could have improved the stay. The air conditioning was sub-par. There needed to be more information about the location of amenitites in the apartment.

We rented this condo several years ago for a family vacation and had only 2 complaints then:
1) if you would like us to remove our shoes at the door, a shoe rack would be helpful; and,
2) storing the beach accessories on the deck on huge shelving makes it too crowded for everyone to sit on the lanai together to enjoy the sunset or share a drink.
Many years later on our most recent visit, I would reiterate these and add one more:
3) some instructions on how to use the microwave/oven combination would be nice. It’s not as straightforward as you think.
Otherwise, this condo is ideal for 3 couples travelling together or a family like ours to have ample space for everyone. We would definitely rent it again!!

We have stayed at the Kamaole Sands many times. The location is beautiful and conveniently located close to plenty of shops, restaurants and beautiful beaches. As for Condo 10-417, the view is the only thing nice about it. The place looks like it went through some renovations to the kitchen and two bathrooms, but the furniture was VERY cheap, old, and dirty, as was the carpet, which definitely wasn’t vacuumed before our arrival. The bedding is as cheap as you can get and the mattresses are ROCK-HARD in every room. The TV in the loft bedroom is non-existent, and the one in the beach facing bedroom is the size of a computer screen and a throwback from the early ‘90s at best. The lighting track in the kitchen, above the sink, was covered in dust that looks like it hadn’t been cleaned in years, and the white cabinets were likewise covered in a layer of filth. The floors and showers in the three bathrooms were cringeworthy, especially the one in the loft. The toilet in the loft bathroom has ZERO flush power, so expect to flush at least three times to clear the bowl, regardless of content (#1, #2 or both). The shower/tub in the loft appears to be the only one not renovated. The tile grout was gross - filled with mildew, and the plastic tub insert was covered in filth, with hair still remaining in the drain from whoever stayed previous to us. Speaking of the shower drain, it is VERY SLOW to drain, so when you shower you’re standing in a pool of ankle-high water. We called to have it cleaned, and we’re told someone would come the following day to do so, but that never happened, so we did the best we could to clean it ourselves. As an added bonus, there was a large booger on the wall in the downstairs-beach facing bedroom next to the dresser mirror. To sum it up, the location is great, but the condo owners or property managers definitely do not spend any money on upkeep of this condo, and the cleanliness is very bad. Condo 10-417 is

First time in Maui and this was great condo for a party of 6 and 2 kids. We were there in February, so we didnt have issues with the soft heat there, but the mattress there iin the soft area was a little hard. The others beds had a good mattress. It was clean and in order. Good to cook, we found all required in the kitchen. A fantastic view from the balcony. The pool a little small but no bad. Also the wednesday lua show was good and friendly, no profesional but good entertainment. My kids enjoy the lua class that afternoon. Just crossing the street you can be in the beach and a beatiful park to enjoy the sunset. We walk in the beach around 4:00 am (because of the change of time we could not sleep after 4:00am) and we got a marvelous pictures with the view of the moom and the reflection in the ocean. The park area is asigned and ours was just in front of the building. Also great welcome in the reception area. Close to restaurants and shoping area.
Definitely I could go back to the same unit.

We had a nice family vacation while staying for our first time at Kamaole Sands. We enjoyed the proximity to the beach. The tennis courts, swimming pool, and bbq area and grounds were immaculate.

We were a family of 6 and enjoyed our stay in Kamaole Sands 10-417. The building is the closest to the road and also closest to the water. The lanai has a lovely view as the unit is on the 4th floor. The unit has two bedrooms on the main floor - one queen bed and the other two twin beds. The third bedroom is the loft with another queen bed. Three bathrooms are nice to have! The kitchen is well supplied with good quality knives! A rarity in rentals! The complex is quite big and only has one pool. But there are two hot tubs and a small children's pool. The street noise was a little disappointing but Kamaole III is a nice beach park directly in front of the complex. It is popular and a little crowded but has lovely grounds and good bathrooms and showers. Overall a good condo for our family.

10-417 had a wonderful view & we loved the setting! We enjoyed watching the grounds with all the beautiful landscaping, birds & butterflies with the ocean in the background. We LOVED being directly across the street from the beach! We were Blessed to see sea turtles & whales during our stay. The only negative thing was on the 2nd to last day the resort made a mistake with our reservation & thought we were leaving a day earlier than reserved. When dealing with this the man I spoke to was Very rude & insistent I was wrong. I was so upset, gathered myself & information & called back. He then called me back apologizing for their mistake but then insisted our Family move to a different condo for our last night. We were all settled in after 10 nights of already being there - we had my niece & my sister was pregnant, we really did not want to move for 1 night- he kept insisting we needed to move. The most disappointing thing about him being so rude & stern about us moving for 1 night was my parents had to cancel 2 weeks at this property 1 week at this condo & 1 week at another condo because their son / my brother passed away before our trip- my parents had to loose that money - the property gained that thousands of dollars & they were able to rent it so they profited quite a bit from our loss & cancellation. It was disappointing he would not work with us after giving them all that money. My Dad who was at home grieving & making after life arrangements had to call & deal with the reservation management. We did not move our last night which we were all thankful for considering we had my niece & sister leaving for the airport at 9pm that night. It was sad that they did not want to listen to our reasoning- it was just easier to make us move for 1 night than have to tell the new family coming in.
