Wailana Kai is located in North Kihei just a short distance from Sugar Beach. This is the perfect location for somebody who wants to be near the water.

The 10 unit building sits at the end of a short cul-de-sac where it is private and quiet. Guests won’t hear the traffic on the main road and are less than 90 yards to the beach and ocean. This complex includes a pool which is newly renovated and tiled as of January 2024, BBQ grills, outdoor washing station for sandy feet & beach gear, & coin or pay app operated laundry.

Our cleaning crew is very thorough. All surfaces are cleaned with a bleach solution or other effective disinfectant between guests. All linens, wash clothes, towels and sheets are changed out between guests including the duvet and pillow shams. Check out time is 11 AM and check in is after 4 pm. This decreases the likelihood that germs will survive and allows our cleaning staff time to do excellent work without being rushed.

The bedroom now has a new window air conditioner just in time for summer. A king sized bed with memory foam mattress, dresser, night stand, table lamps and large closet are all provided for a comfortable stay. There is a queen sized pull out sleeper sofa in the living room next to the second window air conditioner for additional guests. The unit offers an ocean view and the lanai has a bar height table for two. This condo is supplied with beach chairs and an umbrella for enjoying the sunny, warm days and some board games for relaxing in the evenings.

Fara replies to messages quickly, which was greatly appreciated since we were there during the Kona storm. We lost power, and she answered our questions. The bed is so comfortable and the shower is wonderful! The beach is at the front of the property which makes it a very nice location!

After issues with our flight, it was a pleasure to walk into this quiet, clean, calming condo for our stay! It was equipped with all you need for a fun Hawaiian vacation! Communication was excellent! The air conditioning was a gift & the ceiling fans in the bedroom helped keep you cool while sleeping. The rainfall shower was lovely and the room was well stocked with plenty of towels. We didn’t cook anything (too lazy) but the kitchen looked equipped with everything you need to cook a meal. We didn’t have a chance to use the pool but it looked inviting! The area was quiet and the nearby beach was also quiet too! Great for getting away from the crowds! Thank you Fara for the opportunity to stay at your fabulous place! Mahalo!

Best of both worlds

Fara’s condo was the perfect location for our Maui beach getaway. It’s on the quieter end of Kihei, across from the beach, and only a few minutes away from restaurants, shopping, and exploring other parks and beaches. The condo itself was nicely furnished, very clean and well stocked. I loved starting my day with an early morning beach walk to Sugar Beach Bake Shop for great coffee and baked goods, especially the malasadas!

Amazing condo with extras

We had a wonderful week at Wailana Kai and this condo had all we needed to feel at home. It is very comfortable with a nice bed and space to relax in the living room. We enjoyed coffee and cocktails on the lanai and walked across to Sugar Beach for sunsets. The street and condo are quiet and away from the busy resorts. We appreciated the beach chairs, umbrella, and cooler and used them daily on our adventures. Fara was very accommodating and a wonderful host. We would definitely stay here again when visiting Maui.
