Napili Ridge 1 Bed Condo: Wi Fi, A/C, Ocean View

Reviews

• Reviewer: Gray

  Comments: For the cleanliness and simplicity of the space and the proximity to Napili Beaches and Kapalua, you simply can't beat this pad for the price! I had a wedding to go to in Kapalua and the prices at the Ritz were above my pay grade; however, staying at Chris' condo was comfortable, clean and a 4 minute walk to go stand up paddle boarding in between the wedding activities....truly couldn't have planned it more perfectly! The place had all my little favorites: coffee bean grinder, French press, blender for my morning smoothies, and there's even a little trail shortcut Chris talked to me about in order to walk into the Napili Shopping Center where I could walk and grab lunch or a latte in the afternoon. Nice King Bed and clean bathroom. The place is a bit outdated (bathroom & kitchen tile), but for the price I can't complain at all. Great WiFi and Cable TV was perfect to keep up with my email and chill out at night after all the activities going on. I will definitely hit this place up again because of the amenities, cleanliness and location. Oh yeah, Chris was a great host and definitely knows the area and was easy to get a hold of! All in all a great stay!

  Comments: This is a great location and great value. Walking distance to Napili Bay and Kapalua Bay for great snorkeling. Close to shopping and restaurants. Chris is a great host - quick responses to any questions, otherwise not around if you don't need him. It's obvious that he cares a lot about the comfort of his guests. We had everything that we needed, well equipped kitchen with nice quality cookware, and we really appreciated the bottled water, such a thoughtful touch. We will definitely be back!

  Comments: This is not only located in a great area, but offers anything you might need to enjoy your time on Maui. The home is super clean, spacious, and gets a great amount of light during the day. There are more than enough amenities for comfort and you really don’t need to bring more than your clothes. Chris has set up fans throughout to keep the place from getting to hot. The fans with the ocean breeze at night was a perfect way to fall asleep. The property is super close to the beach, different restaurants, and coffee shops. All walkable. Chris is a great host as well! He left us with plenty of towels, tips, and even a cold beverage and/or coffee to enjoy upon arrival! Will definitely be back.

  Comments: Great value and location. No competition for those looking for affordability and beautiful Napili.

• Reviewer: Dan

  Comments: This space is quiet, conveniently located, and simple for the straight forward traveller. Steps from Napili bay, it is about as close to the action as you can get without shelling out for a massive resort bill. Would stay again!

• Reviewer: Karie

  Comments: Location was spectacular! Chris helped with any little thing we needed! I liked having our own parking spot and nearby restaurant Taverna was our favorite. The complex was pretty quiet at night which was nice because we were on a different time zone! Mother Maui was good to us. Will definitely be calling Chris on my next visit to Maui.

  Comments: Great spot! Super clean and comfortable. Excellent location; walking distance to Napili Bay. Near to many restaurants in Kapalua as well as Napili Market/ Napili Plaza. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend this place based on the sunsets and cleanliness/ comfort of the unit; great value.

• Reviewer: Caitlin

  Comments: Description is accurate, and the host was great with communication. Clean, spacious place - only downside is no A/C. But the fans help, and the place itself and location are great!

• Reviewer: Christine

  Comments: It's a terrific value. Chris was great with communicating with us, and everything was exactly as described. However, perhaps two things need additional emphasis: (1) The unit is old. Really old. Not that this bothered us a lot, but this probably should be part of the description. Obviously, at the price that this unit was listed at, we did not expect it to be like the Hyatt or the Marriott, but it was a lot older that we expected. (2) In the summer months, it gets very uncomfortable. It never got below 80 degrees at night inside the unit, and it was 80% humidity. Even with the two fans blasting at the bed, we never got comfortable ... to a point where we almost checked into a hotel for the last two nights of our vacation. This listing's description noted that this unit does not have an A/C, so we were aware that this might happen. But really, this should be in BOLD ALL CAPS for all summer travelers.

  Comments: Modest accommodation at at modest price.

• Reviewer: Joyeeta

  Comments: Chris gave a helpful talk-through via phone of the rules and regulations of the apartment. Beaches are located a short drive or medium walk away. You get a view of a sliver of the ocean off in the distance. Good location far enough from the uber touristy areas of Lahaina in a residential district close to the coastal trail. The living room had an air conditioner that cooled the living room and up to the kitchen, but definitely didn't reach the bedroom, which was notably hot and muggy as a result. There were two fans to help with that, but they may not do the trick for someone particularly sensitive to the heat. Otherwise, good value for the location.

  Comments: Great location and responsive host. Made our stay on Maui simpler and more enjoyable.

• Reviewer: Kyle

  Comments: This is called real value for your money... while exterior might put you off, inside is clean and very livable. Best of all it’s actually on a really up scale area with cooling afternoon breezes and the best snorkeling in Maui. Great restaurants: try the Sea-house for breakfast. Love the coffee shop next to Napili Market. Also the little organic restaurant called roots... all of this and was hit by the remnants of hurricane Olivia. Plan on returning.. a lot more outrigger canoe races to go

  Comments: Great stay! Nice location! New AC was nice in the living room area.

• Reviewer: Carrie

  Comments: Christopher’s place is perfect for the budget conscious traveler that is looking for basic amenities in a good location! The new A/C unit in the living area is awesome and once the bedroom unit is installed the property will be on point. I stayed early October and the bedroom was still quite warm in the evening - as it only cooled down to 76 deg and there wasn’t much of a breeze. Christopher was a great host and super communicative, which I greatly appreciated. The unit was very clean and had extras like sunscreen, laundry detergent, shampoo/conditioner & a hairdryer. I didn’t visit the pool but the beach was really close by, and I enjoyed a great breakfast at a’a Roots just up the street!

  Comments: Awesome location and very clean. The house has everything you need. Christopher responds quickly and is very helpful

• Reviewer: Angela

  Comments: The apartment was very clean! With the A/C or a cool breeze through the windows at night the rooms cooled down immediately. The kitchen was fully equipped you could easily cook your meals. A laundry detergent, sunscreen, hairdryer, shampoo, conditioner and a soap is provided. He also provided beach towels as well as beach chairs. As described there is a designated parking lot . The communication and the check in/out was very smooth. Mahalo for the great stay, I would definitely recommend it!

  Comments: Had a chance to stay here and loved it ! Chris was great with responding and giving clear directions. The location was so perfect! Sunsets are amazing from the patio. We got our money worth and will miss it for sure !! Thank you for a relaxing and peaceful stay!

• Reviewer: Max

  Comments: Chris's condo is comfortable, breezy, , and a great value for Napili. Some of the previous reviews stated that the place is old, and the complex was clearly built 40 years ago, but it's well-maintained and doesn't feel dated (bathroom tile excepted). The new a/c unit is powerful, but we didn't really find it necessary with the trade winds. The bed is also one of the most comfortable I've found in an Airbnb. Finally, Chris provided very clear and detailed check-in instructions. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.

• Reviewer: David

  Comments: Everything was great. Highly recommend. Awesome location, and Chris was the best host one can ask for.

• Reviewer: Jessi

  Comments: Chris was an excellent host! Very easy to communicate with and eager to help in any way he could. His home was VERY clean and the bed was incredibly comfortable as others have mentioned. Our favorite thing was enjoying breakfast with the ocean view on the lanai every morning. Great location (5 min walk to the best beach in Maui) and super cheap laundry were added perks as well. Would stay again.

• Reviewer: Belladira

  Comments: Place was awesome, had a better view of the ocean than expected. Definitely money well spent.

• Reviewer: LaVonne

  Comments: Christopher is Hospitable and kind. Condo is Clean. Bedroom stays pretty warm with no air just a fan. Older and a bit tired but clean.

• Reviewer: Erika

  Comments: Very basic accomodation in Napili area. Very old unit in older complex - has not had any updates since what looks like early 70s. Bathroom shower slider not connected to tracks at all - my bf fell into the bathtub because of this - should be fixed asap. AC and ceiling fan in living room only - wholly inadequate for keeping actual bedroom comfortable (no AC and no ceiling fan). The bed was comfortable but this was a very minimalist lodging at best. One of the biggest frustrations we had was trying to get the host to email/text or message the door code before we arrived in Maui. We had an incredibly busy morning flying from Oahu and after the host refused to send me the code after asking several times in email, he called my mobile while I was navigating to the airport on Oahu - I missed my exit and almost missed the flight trying to just get the code and get off the phone. Incredibly inefficient and frustrating check in process.

  Comments: Nice facility - vey quite place. Great view. Quick responses from host on any needed item. Cell reception is spotty. The wi-fi works great, so cell reception is moot except to make phone calls. Availability of laundry minimized need to carry too many clothes for the trip.

• Reviewer: Elana And Matthew

  Comments: We had a great stay at Chris’ condo. We found Chris great at communicating and providing local tips. We will stay here again!

• Reviewer: James

  Comments: This is a nice location approx 1/8 mile from beach in Napili. There are a few condos and private residences between. there is an ocean blue water view from balcony. Although an older complex it was clean and we felt safe. Parking is close to the unit.
