Disconnect perfection!

This is a sweet space that offers a clean, quiet and welcoming home away from home. Our favorites…the kitchen, lanai, beach front, walking to the bake shop, central to everything, clean linens and the incredible communication with the owner. We will return!

Wonderful Condo

We were totally pleased with the entire process of booking, checking in, staying, and departure of Lydia's property. The ocean view is spectacular and her condo has a warm, homey feel to it. Our light arrived early and she was even able to get us checked in before the normal time. The full kitchen and washer/dryer were a huge benefit after 10 days on other Hawaiian islands. We definitely can recommend this condo to others looking for Maui accommodations.

Cozy nice stay with great extras

We enjoyed our stay at this apt. We especially appreciated the really nice and helpful gear provided. The snorkeling gear was awesome, the beach chairs and cooler and towels and shopping bags were also super helpful. The travel guide books were super helpful and appreciated. The apt was easy to access and a perfect home base for exploring. It is in a quiet spot, so you have to drive to most restaurants etc.

Wonderful stay

This property is in a great location central to everything in Maui. So close to the airport, south Maui and West Maui and the primary harbor for taking whale watching and other cruises is 10 minutes away. The beach right outside the condo will take you for miles with very few people as there are no hotels, etcsince you are in north Kehei away from all the big hotels and resorts. Your view from the balcony is wonderful and you will have the best seat in the house for beautiful sunsets. There was only one negative for me and that was there is a lot of road noise as a major road is nearby. The waves from the ocean drowns out most of the noise but I am sensitive to road noise. However I would stay here again as Lydia is s wonderful host and very responsive.

Great ocean watching and perfect location

We really enjoyed our stay at Kealia, especially relaxing on the balcony and watching whales, seals, outriggers, foil surfers etc. We loved walking on the long sandy beach every day too. And the location is perfect to easily get to other parts of Maui

Second stay here!!

This property is so convenient for everything. Feels like a private beach. Everything the host has listed is spot on! We love the coziness, listening to the waves crash at night, the wildlife and roosters from the nearby wildlife refuge… We found this time that we could walk the beach to a farmer’s market, ABC store, and a little further for more things. Short drive to Maui Aquarium and Tante’s restaurant…and to the heart of Kihei, Kihei Caffe (must have coconut/pineapple/banana/macadamia nut pancakes), and Coconut's for the best island fish tacos. Thank you, Lydia, for being flexible with check in and so helpful. Until we stay again…

Such a beautiful spot!

We LOVED this spot! The pictures are spot on, we practically lived out on this balcony and on this beach. The location is great and around tons of other beaches and great food spots and shave ice as well. We traveled around to the other beaches but there was kind of no point because this beach was so quiet and private and even shaded in spots do you dont need an umbrella. I swam multiple times here because the waters were so warm and inviting. I've already recommended this condo to multiple friends and family.

Beautiful Stay at Quiet Condo with incredible views

My mom and I stayed here as a much needed respite from my father’s passing. The condo was everything we needed, well appointed and very clean. The property is perfectly situated not far from the heart of Kihei, which is very cute with lots of good restaurants and food trucks. The best part here though was the stunning views of the ocean from the lanai, sound of the waves lulling you to sleep and direct sugar beach access. There’s also a lovely pool on-site as well. Lydia was very helpful in calling to warn us of a minor flying insect issue caused by the weather and offered to have cleaners come, we appreciated her attentiveness.
