We love this location!! The beach is wonderful and not crowded. The grounds are immaculately maintained. Condo was well equipped. We will be back again!
We loved our time at the condo! This is a great, convenient location for exploring all around Maui. We loved the rooftop for beautiful ocean views, whale watching and the most gorgeous sunsets. The beach area is very nice and so calm. The condo was very clean and had everything you could possibly imagine for home away from home experience. Highly recommend and would definitely book again!
We had a minor problem, not knowing how to turn out an outside light, and Joe was very quick to help us. The home was very nice and the beds were comfortable with lots of pillows. The view from the lanai was wonderful and it was just like the beach was our front yard. We had a great stay!
Property was well kept quiet and great access to beach. Bonus was enjoying daily sunning of turtles on the beach and rocks. Beautiful 360’ view on rooftop. This condo is not a penthouse as described, does have an ocean view but photos have been cleverly staged.

Just OK
Great location. Needs updating. Comfort was an issue. The temperature could not be controlled. AC was on a timer and could only be on or off. There were a few standing fans but 2 were filthy and noisy. I always treat others homes with respect and I realize this is not the case for everyone. However, the list of rules was overwhelming. Some of the rules made me feel like I was moving into a nursing home.
Beautiful views with great building amenities. Loved the BBQ's right by the pool / shuffleboard as well as the roof top. Beds + bedding were all very comfortable and great quality, as were all the linens. The couch + lanai furniture were also very comfortable. Nicely decorated with lovely Hawaiian photographs and shells. Our host Joe was easy to get a hold of with the few minor questions we had as the check in / out process was made extremely easy with the informative email. The second bedroom worked very well for our 2 teen agers with the two single beds. Mahalo!
Overall, this was a wonderful place to stay during our time on Maui. Unit 624 was perfect for our family vacation, celebrating 25 years of marriage with my wife and spending spring break with our twin 16 year old boys. The location was perfect as it was centrally located to all of our planned activities. The unit was clean and provided all of the conveniences of home. The beach was easily accessible however, it is more for walking and viewing than for water activities as it is located in a shallow area - perfect for little kids though! The owner was easy to communicate with and always responded in a timely manner from start to finish. Our only recommendation is to update the secondary bathroom.
Pros:
- Great view
- Has AC, but it’s on a timer
Cons:
- Ants in kitchen
- 2nd bedroom smells like mildew
- 5th person sleeps on couch (no pull-out bed)
- Beach is rocky and water is murky, but that’s not the condo’s fault. You’ll need to drive if you want to hang out on the beach.
- Had to air out the condo when we first arrived, smelled so bad (heavily perfumed cleaning products)
- Master Bed is very uncomfortable
Nice condo with great view of the ocean. Condo is simple but a nice stay. Close drive to everything to do in Maui. Great way to watch sunrise and sunsets. Condo has pretty much everything you would need to stay, cook, go to the beach, etc.
We had a great time in this condo . We had all the Amenities needed to have a comfortable stay . The condo is decorated beautifully and very comfortable. The property manager had great communication and was very helpful . I would not hesitate to book this condo . The beach is beautiful as well and we saw turtles in front of the resort every day . Only little detail is there is no where to store paddle boards and they won’t fit up an elevator so we had to buy blow up ones form Costco . Minor detail but if you love paddle boarding or surfing on Maui this is just a little advice.
Great time and we will be back .
The condo was cute, not super fancy considering the price - but hey that’s Maui for you! And you’re paying for the location and Oceanside view
The beach was literally right outside, but it wasn’t the most walkable or swimmable beach (rough pebbles). What was an unexpected surprise was the Indian restaurant on the complex with a stunning ocean view - definitely give that a go!
Also, do note the AC is not adjustable by guests in terms of strength, temperature or direction. When we needed an adjustment, joe was very helpful and came over to help us fix it.
All in all, it was a nice stay! Thanks Joe :)
This property was perfect for our family of four. The centralized location made it easy to get around all the various parts of the island to see Maui's many sights. The condo was incredibly clean, and the great layout ensured the kids and adults had their own separate spaces. The pool offered a great place to relax in the late afternoons, when the beaches were too windy, and the rooftop deck offered spectacular sunset views. The owners were proactive in communicating with us before and throughout our stay and very responsive. I have nothing but great things to say about this property!
Superb property on the ocean with direct access to a wonderful calm beach area with lots of sea turtles on the rocks during the day. Manicured lawn area and the pool and restaurant on the site were very nice. The unit we had was clean and well equipped and we enjoyed the master bedroom that faced the ocean and the sounds of the waves pounding ashore. The entry lock was digital and eliminated the need to make sure someone had the key. All in all one of the best condo units I have stayed at in Maui. Will return, hopefully March 2023. Oh and the whale were everywhere.
We had a wonderful stay in this clean ocean front condo. Enjoyed the sunset all around the property, at the rooftop & outside of the lanai & at the beach!
We absolutely loved our stay at Joe's Place. The room was clean and comfortable. We had a family of four and it was perfect. There was room to spread out, to have meals, and to relax. The views were incredible. The host was very good at responding as was his housekeeper when we had a question. If I come back to Maui I hope to stay here again. Thank you!
We spent so much time at the beach! We ate in the condo, which had every thing we needed to cook and live! We were grateful for the washer and dryer ( 7 year old twins!) and the included beach chairs, boogie boards and other fun kids toys - we never had to buy anything for the beach!!!! We came home tan, relaxed and we will be bacck. I loved the location!
Great central location. Perfect if you like whale-watching because it is close to Maalaea Harbor and because you can actually go up to the roof and watch from there. The owner is super helpful. I mentioned that there was no toaster, and he brought by a new toaster the same day! We'd stay here again.
