A slice of paradise with breath-taking panoramic view

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this stunning penthouse rental in Lahaina, and I must say, it exceeded all my expectations. From the moment I stepped into the unit, I was captivated by its beauty. The highlight, undoubtedly, was the panoramic view that greeted me upon arrival. The moment I stepped onto the private balcony, I was greeted by an awe-inspiring vista of the sparkling turquoise waters of the Pacific Ocean. The sight of the sun setting over the horizon was nothing short of magical. It was as if time stood still, and I found myself completely mesmerized by the breathtaking beauty that unfolded before my eyes. The interior of the penthouse was good. The attention to detail and the tasteful decor created a Hawaiian Vibe. The living area was spacious and thoughtfully designed, with plush seating that allowed me to relax and unwind after a day of exploring the island. The kitchen was fully equipped with modern appliances, making it a joy to prepare meals while enjoying the spectacular view. The location of this penthouse is ideal. Easy access to restaurant and shops. I also took advantage of the beach, write out side the building for a morning swim.

Magnificent stay in Maui

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this beautiful condominium. The furniture was exquisite and very Hawaiian! Perfect location with a 270 degree view beyond words from the penthouse. The air conditioner worked great, the terrace was large, comfortable seating, wonderful artwork, great heated pool, nice lobby area and a fabulous new kitchen. Absolutely gorgeous, can’t wait to come back! All around 100%

Cleaner wasn’t finished with property - brought our towels around 7, but we went to grocery store while she finished up. Lots of seating for having additional family over for dinner. Would definitely stay here again.

1st Maui Visit

Wow wow wow the views from this unit could not have been better even if you stayed at a 5 star resort. You had multiple amazing window views. The unit was amazing, but could have used some renovations. It is an amazing unit in a great location and right where you would want to be. Only downside (if there was one) is it was dated and could have used a renovation in furniture. If you can look past that, definitely a must rent unit. Communications were ok, but could have been faster response times

Peter’s Kaanapali condo

We enjoyed the condo even though some parts of place were outdated. There was not much room in the master bedroom closet to hang clothes. We had to call the owner then ask at the front desk for maintenance one day to fix the front door lock. We appreciated the air conditioning, the beds were comfortable and the view was fantastic.

We had a wonderful time. The view is a once ina lifetime experience. We saw turtles, a shark and countless whales from the window. We also had a front row seat to over a dozen rainbows. The kitchen was well stocked and you can’t beat the location. The place overall is a bit dated but we knew that going into it reading reviews and picking it for the view and Hawaiian decor.

Fabulous view!

You wont find a better view or location. We sat on the lanai every morning looking down on the waves and the frequent turtles below. The ocean view stretches to the horizon and the sun sets into the water between Lanai and Molokai. The condo is just steps from the north end of the boardwalk where you can walk for several miles, all the way to the far end of Kaanapali beyond Whalers Village. There are many restaurants along the way, as well as access to the beach in many places. Knowing that the Mahana is an older building, we overlooked some of the well-used elements in the condo. It was disappointing that the sliding door from the master bedroom couldn't be opened, but the owner explained in previous reviews that it takes time to get things repaired on the island. The cabinets are in rough shape, but again, this is an older building. The only thing we had a problem with was the cleanliness, particularly when there are to be extra cleaning measures during Covid. The beautiful rug was very dirty, and there were tortilla chips under the couch from previous renters. One of us picked up a towel the first evening, and we were covered in about a cup of sand. Floors and light switches were very dirty, but it was nothing we couldn't fix with a few Lysol wipes. One of the bathroom sinks had an army of ants. I also realize that the owner has to trust the cleaning crew to do their job from a distance and the only way he can know how they are doing is from renter's reviews. We mostly used the condo for sleeping, and I must say, the beds are very comfortable. It was a good stay, and I would gladly rent again for the view and the good night's sleep.

So Awesome!!!!

We absolutely loved this one of a kind condo and had a wonderful trip. The location is prime and the views are spectacular. We loved the decor. It really made us feel like we were in Hawaii, and not just another boring hotel room. The condo had plenty of room for the 5 of us, it was neat and clean, stocked well, and the beds were very comfortable. It was the perfect place to be with teenagers, because they could walk to everything, there is so much nearby. We would sit on the lanai drink our coffee and watch the turtles below every morning. We even saw dolphins. We would definitely come back here!

This is an amazing property! I am convinced it is the most beautiful view on the island. It took our breath away every morning. The unit is well equipped and we had everything we needed including binoculars to look at the sea turtles that we could see from the lanai! The decor is fun and interesting. The place has a lot of charm compared to the generic condos that are out there. Also the beds were amazingly comfortable. I didn’t want to leave and definitely hope to come back someday!

Amazing view, condo okay

Pros: view is amazing. We could see up and down the beach, lots of turtles in the reef below and beautiful sunsets. Access to the beach and beach boardwalk was super easy. A short walk to a parking lot full of food trucks. The place has beach chairs, a sand shovel and snorkeling gear for us to use. Cons: the sliding glass door from the master bedroom was not useable which we were very bummed about, we were looking forward to having the door open at night to listen to the ocean. The living area and kitchen cupboards were cluttered. Lots of stuff to search through to get what we needed. We also gave stuff a good wash before using the first time as it was dusty or had old food stuck to it.
