Reviewer: Jordan
Comments: Nancy and Ralph made our wedding and honeymoon stay great. We arrived at the apartment to have a wedding balloon, wine, and pineapple champagne waiting for us. Everything was very clean, organized and clear. All items needed for a comfortable stay are provided by the host. Communication was clear and immediate which made us very comfortable staying there. Thank you both gain for the amazing stay and location.

Reviewer: Melinda
Comments: The location is perfect, away from the crowds yet a 4 minute walk from the beach, beach walk with access to Kealia Pond boardwalk, the Maui Canoe club, etc!! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the condo itself, being the best equipped we have stayed, from cooking needs, layout and attractiveness, bed comfort, to beach equipment and binoculars! Ralph and Nancy are attentive to all needs, and welcoming with local wine, chocolates, coffee, and easy communication. We highly recommend.

Reviewer: Rebecca
Comments: Highly recommended, you will not be disappointed! Ralph and Nancy’s place is conveniently and centrally located in a quiet part of the island. Walking distance from Maalaea Harbour which is great if you book any sea tours/excursions leaving from the harbour. Beautiful immaculate condo, cozy, very clean and well equipped. Quiet building and location. Easy and quick check-in, clear communication with the host who is quick to reply. Detailed instructions sent by email before our arrival were very helpful. Short drive to Kihei, Lahaina and Kahului Airport. Affordable and worth every penny. We will definitely return to Maui one day and hope to be able to stay here again.

Reviewer: Jacqui
Comments: Ralph's place is clean, modern, comfortable, and in a great location. The thoughtful touches of chilled wine, chocolates, and cold bottled water were appreciated after a long day of travel. The bed was very comfy and the bath/beach towels were soft and fluffy. Parking was easy and the neighbourhood felt very safe. The local restaurants are yummy, and I enjoyed being away from the busy area of Kihei; lounging poolside when I wanted some peace. I'll be back for sure!

Reviewer: Michelle
Comments: Ralph's place was a wonderful and central location for us to stay for our honeymoon. We didn't have to deal with a bunch of tourists on the beach nearby and it was a pretty private street the complex was on. The amenities were great and we especially enjoyed the espresso machine in the condo along with the washer and dryer that allowed us to pack a little lighter for our trip. Relaxing on the patio in the evenings was also very enjoyable. We would definitely stay here again!

Reviewer: Kimberly
Comments: Great stay! Condo is exactly as the pictures appear. If you are a coffee drinker, you will seriously enjoy the espresso machine! My coffee at home is less satisfying after using that machine haha! For a pull out bed, very comfortable! However if you are tall like my husband, your feet may slightly hang off the edge. Very quaint and clean little condo, had a homey feeling right away! The beach that is a short walk away was one of my favorite beaches during our whole trip, and we got to walk it every morning! Would definetly recommend for a couple getaway!

Reviewer: Emily
Comments: This condo is amazing and the hosts are equally amazing! It definitely exceeded our expectations and is so much nicer in person. The A/C unit keeps the room very cool after a day out in the sun. There is a washer and dryer in the room which is such a bonus! Everything is sparkling clean and works perfectly. The bed is very comfortable and easy to unfold. These are hands down the best hosts you will ever have on AirBNB as they truly care about you having a great stay! No detail is forgotten and they truly go above and beyond.

Reviewer: Eric
Comments: I really enjoyed my stay in Maalaea. Was a little unsure about how effective simply opening the windows would be at night, but the winds on this part of the island are always strong so I never had to bother with the AC (but it is there if you need it). Beyond that, the unit had everything I could want. Plenty of dishes and utensils, excellent internet and guidebooks, and even beach chairs. Would be a pleasure to return some day.

Reviewer: Jessica
Comments: If you're on the fence between this place and some other one, let me tell you - stay with Ralph!! We had a fantastic week in Maui with Ma'alaea as our home base. Restaurants and shops and aquarium are walkable, and most of the spots on the island you want to be at are no more than 20 minutes away by car. We found the location so convenient and flexible, and were able to do everything we wanted. The space is even nicer than it looks in the photos, immaculately kept and with everything you could want. It even has tons of goodies for cooking - salts and spices and even olive oil! The box of beach goodies - chairs, boogie boards, a cooler - were super handy and we used them a ton, saved us money too. If you're worried about not having a beach view, don't be. The mountain view is gorgeous, and you can walk to the beach in minutes. Mahalo, Ralph! We'd stay here again <3

Reviewer: Dylan
Comments: This is a very great place to stay while visiting Maui. Wake up and make yourselves a cup of coffee from the espresso machine to get the day started. Comes with all the house essentials you can think of. If booking lots of boat activities like snorkeling tours, sunset dinners and guided fishing trips departing from Maalaea harbor. Look no further than this condo because it is a very short walk to the harbor which will cut back travel time and save you money on parking!! I highly recommend dropping by beach bums also located at the harbor for drinks and some delicious BBQ!!! Nice central location on the island makes for easy travel and good time. Loved our stay at this condo! Very unique shower and ac unit to keep you cool! If we make it back to Maui we would look to book this condo again!!

Reviewer: Samantha
Comments: Loved staying at this cute little studio condo. It is perfect for a couple's getaway! The place is fully stocked with everything you will need. Cooking supplies, boogie boards, beach chairs, and travel books with great tips for outdoor activities. Maalaea is a great place to stay on the island because it is close to many things and very beautiful! Mahalo, Ralph!

Reviewer: Ashley
Comments: The place was true to the pictures! Very nice and clean. It was a great place to stay and location was perfect being in the middle of everything. Ralph was quick to respond prior to going and if we had questions on what adventures to do while in Maui. The espresso machine was neat and already had coffee at the place which was very good! Would highly recommend and great value!

Reviewer: Nicola

Reviewer: Prasad
Comments: Great place for a getaway in Maui. Strongly recommend to all travelers.

Reviewer: Susan
Comments: This is a small but charming place. It is well appointed, all stylish and new surfaces, interesting touches. The Murphy bed was very comfortable. There was wine and chocolate waiting for us and an espresso machine! Ralph was extremely accommodating and easy to reach. Check in was a breeze. This location is very central so you can get everywhere on the island equally well (except of course Hana). The only downside of this little harbor town is that the area is extremely windy all the time- the windiest part of the island, and one hears it all night.
