Maui Vista Condominium Aoao

This review is after 7 days here. Overall, semi decent buy. Other places that are nicer for less.
This room (1207), was clean and had a great view of the pool.
New appliances, new kitchen wares and lots of dishes and the like, towels new and fluffy.
However, there are some things needing replacement, curtains, the painful couch, and the windows dont shut all the way, super inefficient when using the AC. Furniture is quite cheap, but its a rental, I get that. Not enough garbage bags, got 2 for the week, and not enough TP. Horrible pillows, foam mattess.
It was nicely supplied with cleaning supplies, and beachmat, snorkels and masks, the beach chairs were broken, need to be tossed.
They do have very good wifi connection.
Super convienient walk to the beach, stores, shopping, and resturants!
200.00 a night, eh. Bit pricey for this place.

Beautiful Condos with all of the amenities of home and then some. Quite and polite, grills, tennis, pools, but none of that is as great as the location. Cross the street and you are in some of the nicest beaches. Close to great restaurants and a small grocery store. Our until was nice than the pictures they are showing.

My boyfriend and I stayed in building 1 for 6 nights. We found the room on flip key I think unit 1224. The price was great. The build is nice and crazy close to the ocean. It’s a short walk to some awesome food and shops. There’s a foodland a couple blocks away if you need sunscreen. The building has 3 pools and tennis courts. As for our room specifically it was small and simple (which isn’t a complaint) the only complaint I do have is that the pillows were waay too soft so bring your own and the bed was incredibly creaky and so loud! I wouldn’t suggest it for honeymooners!

My wife and I were here for 10 days, I don’t know how to express my how much I enjoyed staying here.
They had everything we could possibly need already stocked in the condo. We had a kitchen, double stacked washer/​dryer, lanai, Snorkeling gear for 4, bogie board, 2 beach chairs, a beach umbrella, you name it they had it.
It really felt like it was our home and if we are able to come back we will definitely stay here again.
I highly recommend this place to anyone!
To describe the Maui Vista and the way it felt in one word… HOME

Great placees for the money go on
. the calm sound of thr waves coming ashore is amazing. Maui is amazing.

Not sure what the hype is about. Their office isn’t even open on the weekends, so theres literally no one there to answer questions in person. Yet they have the nerve to leave you notes on your car to register it over the weekend when theyre not open. Absurd. Its an okay place tops. Only thing its got going for it is the location to the beach.

Great property for the price. Within walking distance to many shops, dining spots and across the street from the beach. The property is well maintained, has 3 pools, 6 tennis courts and 6 BBQs for grilling. The only down side is that there are not hot tubs. Other than that, it’s a great place!

Wife and I stayed in various untis over the years and liked it so much, we bought one of the condos three years ago. It’s well-​cared for and close to a beautiful beach, shopping, restaurants and other great amenities.

We booked our stay via VRBO. Our unit was very clean and just a few steps from the beaches across the st. We loved being able to grill dinner almost every night and kicking back on the lanai watching the gorgeous sunsets. Our unit had a washer and dryer and all kinds of beach gear to use. I cant wait to come back!

Maui Vista!
This is a great place to stay. Cheap, clean neat and nice. Tennis courts and beach right outside.

Nice clean and updated with washer and dryer but no A/​C unit in bedroom — hot. Window ac unit in living room. Great body surfing beach across the street about 3 minute walk.
good location in town close to cheaper eating places. Each unit is owned by different people so some units are nicer than others. I lucked out and got a recently updated unit that was clean. Try to get pictures of the unit u r renting b4 u pay 4 it.

These are some great condominiums that work for anyone who is looking to save money and just needs a place to lie their head. It is not the Four Seasons Hotel, nor is it a crappy Motel 8. It is just perfect for everyday travelers. It is furnished with your basic needs. Our unit had a small flat screen t.v., washer and dryer, dishwasher, one bedroom, one bathroom, and internet was provided. The only problem with the internet was one needs to plug their laptop into the modem. No router. Outside are tennis courts, bar b q grills, and 3 pools. It is located about one block away from «Charlie Young Beach», which is a great beach. What sold my wife and I on this place was the rental car that was included on the price we payed for the unit. If you want to save your money, and want to just relax like any other Hawaiian tourist does, than this is a great steal. Take advantage. :)

Great place to stay for the money — We were there in early May and the location was great and the place was clean and exactly as we had thought it would be. They have 3 pools and a bunch of nice weber bbqs. It is a bit of an older crowd there but if you are looking for a great deal this is your place in Kihei.
Try out Freds, Lulus and Lifes a Beach.

Let me start by giving you a little background on my experiences in Maui. I had the fortune to have made several trips to Maui in the last two years and, until this trip, stayed over in West Maui/​Kaanapali/​Honokawai Area. This time around, I have friends staying in Kihei and thought I’d try it out.
The Maui Vista Condo’s are located in south Maui and are within walking distances of many shops and restaurants. I think you could opt to not rent a car and keep your expenses down. There is a great swimming/​sunbathing beach a very short walk across the street. Charlie Young Beach/​Kaimoele I. I recommend heading out in the am for a walk along the beach. If you are a lap swimmer, bring your goggles along with you.
There are barbecues available close to each section of buildings, tennis courts and several small unheated pools on the premises.
The condo I’m staying in (#2112,
) was very lovely, with plenty of sunshine during the day and super close to the small, unheated, yet completely adequate pool. It’s a corner unit, which is definitely a bonus, as the bedrooms in this complex are to the back of the condo’s by the corridors and have levered windows. I’m thinking could be bothersome at bedtime. Most corner units do not seem to have this issue. Walking by another condo one morning, I heard a sneeze and it sound like the person was right next to me.
All the condo’s have full kitchens. Most have some sort of Air conditioning, though, I found that I didn’t need the A/​C on if I ran the fan in the living room.
My condo was well stocked, including plenty of towels/​beach towels, beach chairs, mats, snorkel gear and Boogie Boards. Free Wifi, a small flat screen tv and a stereo (no auxilary hook-​up for an ipod or MP3 player, though). Coffee maker for that fresh Kona coffee you must have in the am. And the owner was very easy to work with. And the entire transaction went very smoothly.
Some of the units do have an ocean view, though I noticed that the units in building 1 were rather close to South Kihie road and I bet if road noise/​traffic is bothersome to you that could be a problem.
Overall, if you are on a tight budget and looking for a nice place to stay while in Maui, I’d recommend The Maui Vista Condos in Kihei. I’ll be back again, for sure.

Great place to relax and enjoy Maui. This place is close to everything, its nice & peace full a home away from home.

These are owned primarily by people that rent them out, which is quite popular in hawaii. The owners can be the type that actually stay there for parts of the year, or those that do it purely as investment and purchased them sight unseen. I’ve heard and read of horror stories of vacationers renting these condos and really being hit or miss depending on the owner.
I found this one on
and have found it to be a great place to stay at a great price.
The owners and their families actually stay here, so they keep the place really nice.
This condo is located in South Kihei, which is exactly where I wanted to stay. It’s super close to Wailea, which is easily twice as expensive. I enjoy staying at condos much better than hotels since they have all the amenities of home (of course, you do have to clean up after yourself). But if you’re in hawaii for a week, it’s great (and economical) to be able to cook your own meals once in a while and do your laundry!
At maui vista, they have a swimming pool, tennis courts, bbq area, and probably more as i’m sure i didn’t check out everything.
the unit itself was great. the owner put in a new washer/​dryer, which was really nice to have (who wants to wear week old swimming suits?). there was a kitchen (small one) with dishwasher and free internet connection. I’m not sure if all the units in this complex are outfitted the same, but this has all the amenities i was looking for.
The owners were very helpful in answering questions i had, and there were no problems with the unit.
Maui certainly has a number of activities from the super adventurous to those who just want to hang out at the beach all day. it was really nice to have a great place to stay to call «home» while we were in maui.

I stayed in unit 1111 during a 7-​night vacation in Maui during August/​September 2006. The unit itself had all I needed for my stay as far as kitchen utensils, cable TV, cable Internet connection, and air conditioning/​fans … and dishwasher and clothes washer/​dryer. I was a little worried that there was no air conditioner unit in the bedroom, but I stayed plenty cool with the ceiling fans in the bedroom and the living room going while the living room A/​C ran for part of the night.
The Maui Vista condos are located in an excellent spot in Maui — very central to most everything you would want to try out or do in South Maui and an easy 40 minute or so ride to Lahaina for more touristy stuff. The condos are located across the street from an entrance to the northern edge of Kama’olé Beach I — probably the best of the 3 for swimming in my opinion. I believe the entrance beach across from Maui Vista is called Charley Young Beach … but it is basically Kama’Olé I.
Parking was easy for Labor Day weekend — not sure about how true this is during high season.
They kept the grills clean as can be — every morning, scrubbing away to keep them in great shape for residents and guests of the complex. THere’s a very small swimming pool in front of the first building — I’m uncertain if that’s true of the other two buildings or not. Tennis courts looked fine — but who wants to play tennis with world class beaches all up and down South Maui?
Overall, this place is a good pick for location and basic amenities. It is definitely not a hotel — but with the exception of a few restaurants in Maui, who wants to stay in a hotel and not have the opportunity to cook for themselves? Maybe I’m just biased to my cooking. :)
Enjoy Maui — and be sure to ask lots of questions of the owners of the particular units here that you’re considering renting. I’m sure each owner does their own thing — which may be good or not so good for your tastes.
