We had a lovely stay at Kahana Sunset. The unit comfortably fits three adults, in our case one couple and a friend. The bathrooms and bedrooms are separated by stairs and provide lots of privacy.
The shower in the second (Queen bedroom) bathroom is due for an upgrade.
We had all the cooking utensils we needed and cooked quite a few meals, though we did battle with keeping food from sticking to the pans. 😅
Also Hot tip: Grab containers or ziplocs if you’re planning on cooking a lot, we found it tough to store leftovers!
We had some issues with bugs (mostly small flies) but our host was quick to respond and resolve. If it’s your first stay in Maui, FYI make sure to take your garbage out as often as needed to keep the critters at bay and put all produce in the cupboards!
I would recommend a more thorough cleaning from the property managers. We found a tissue beside the dresser.
Having two lanai’s was a major benefit and we spent lots of time outside. Loved having beach supplies (chairs and kids toys).
The washer & dryer and AC were driving factors in our decision to rent here and we were not disappointed! So nice to be have.
As for the grounds/property itself, you simply can’t beat having access to a private beach. We caught gorgeous sunsets from the sand, and saw lots of turtles. Some neat rocks for snorkelling too! Also a small beach area/bay (you could fit about 12 chairs comfortably on the sand) that would be safe for kids. It’s truly heartbreaking to see the closed units that back onto the water.
There is a wondrous water filter by the pool (seriously - we used this every day). The BBQ’s were great but busy so best to plan a grill session early or later.
Kahana Sunset is within eased walking distance to Napili Plaza where you can find a coffee shop, smoothie bowl joint, a restaurant and a grocery market.
