  a guest from Portland , Oregon does not recommend this vacation rental.

  The last time we stayed here it was great, but it has gone downhill. The condo was dirty, and we told the office staff twice. Nothing done. Bugs. The office staff were lazy and did not have a professional attitude. The gal who usually manages the property was out on leave. We won’t be coming back.

  Richard D from Chula Vista, CA recommends this vacation rental

  We stayed in Hale Kai #202 at the beginning of September. We loved the location which was very close to the some shopping areas such as grocery shopping, farmers market etc. Nice sandy beach is right down to the condo and we watched sea turtles swimming every day from our balcony. The condo was spacious enough us (3 adults) however some areas need some improvements.
  
  CONS: The condo wasn’t very clean when we arrived. It seemed like not cleaned throughly. Some pots and pans were left in the cabinet with previously burned food on them, drawers looked like dirty like they haven't been used for a long time. We had really bad bugs issues in the kitchen drawers, cabinets, around the living room and the bed room drawers. We talked to the office and they offered to spray the room but we couldn’t allow that since we had an allergic asthma patient in the condo. I would recommend keep everything in closed bags-even your cloths. The rooms were dusty and furnitures looked a little tired, a little face lift can change the entire look. If you are a lite sleeper the bed was very springy, like a water bed. However we didn’t suffer from back ache , when your partner rolls over you feel like going to roll off the bed.
  
  PROS: Super nice location to the beach! Condo has enough beach towels, 2 folding beach chairs, and a lounge chair for the balcony. Kitchen was very well equipped. The condo doesn’t have an air conditioner but it is very breeze when you leave the doors and windows open. There is a floor fan if you need it. We really liked it over all and we definitely recommend the condo, just make sure they spray the place for the bugs couple days of before you arrived.

  a guest from Creve Coeur, MO recommends this vacation rental

  Being at the Hale Kai in 202 is always a good experience.
  We have experienced a large change in the Hale Kai as to the renters over our last two visits. There are many more short term stays, and more children than we have experienced before. We also find that the condo rates are accelerating at a rate that we feel, as compared to our friends rates at other resorts, will be unsustainable.
  The increase in Cleaning is absurd. It is puportedly for clean up when we leave. We were entitled to two cleanings while we were there, and though Joan cleans without ceasing, the two times designated did not occur without prodding. Neither happened on time.
  Valerie is the glue that we find important. We have been to the Hale Kai since 1978, Peg and Ernie, Mngrs, and Valerie is the best we have experienced in all the years we have been there.
  Are we Hale Kai advocates? Yes. Is it changing, yes, probably due to catering to short stays. Is change permanent? Probably.
  Aloha a hui hou kakou!

  A prefect location! Very peaceful and relaxing setting! Stunning views of sunsets from the lanai. Just a few steps to the left or right of the unit and you'll see turtles galore! Entire grounds are maintained very well. Staff is super friendly and treat you like family and are very accommodating.
  
  This was our 2nd stay at Hale Kai, but first time in unit #202. The unit was nicely decorated and very comfortable with all the amenities you would need for your stay.
  
  Total recommend Hale Kai and #202! Can't wait to start planning our return trip. =)

  Elizabeth H from Holly, MI recommends this vacation rental

  With an ocean view and beach just steps away, it's hard to find any complaints. The condo is located near local eateries, including the Fish Market, where we feasted on fresh catch almost every day. Waking up and going to sleep every night to the sound of waves crashing to shore, sunrises and sunsets from out lanai, and a pool with ocean views ? This was beyond our expectation and doubt you can find a better value. The unit could use some updates, but it was clean and stocked with all we needed. Thank you ! We will definitely return.

  The property is conveniently located. Check in was easy. The unit itself was fine. It is somewhat dated, and the bed was very uncomfortable. Time for a new mattress. The unit was not very clean. There were crumbs on top of the fridge, red wince down the side of the dishwasher, and a number of dirty dishes put away. The staff were great about this and offered another free cleaning. The exact same items were not cleaned again! Cleaning staff needs a kick in the butt! Otherwise complex was great!

  This is just an amazing condo right on a beautiful beach and beach park. My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at Hale Kai as the condo was really well organized, clean, with all the amenities and supplies (e.g. kitchen) that you can possibly need during a vacation. The area is lively during the day and quiet at night, and everyone we met was very nice. The management is really friendly and helpful, and we thank you for everything! We even got a gift from secret Santa (thank you Santa)! The location is perfect, on the beach, yet conveniently located just across from the farmer's market, store with organic produce, coffee shop, snorkelling rental (and tours), and a short walk to a good supermarket and a great fish market (delicious poke!). This is definitely one of our best, if not the best, vacation ever! We would love to come back and would recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing holiday in paradise. Mahalo

  Skipper H from Laurel, Md recommends this vacation rental

  I lucked into finding the condo while spending days looking for a place to stay for our anniversary. The location can not be beat! You are on top of the beach and ocean, plus you can walk to shops and little carry out restaurants from the condo. It is very laid back and you do not feel like you have to get dressed up to go outside or anywhere else. The snorkeling from our little beach was great and it seems to be a hang out for at least three (3) sea turtles each afternoon, which you can watch swimming around from the beach. For myself and my wife this was the perfect place for us. The condo had everything that you might need to include some snorkeling gear (some left by us) that you would need. I would recommend this condo to my family as well as my friends. The staff and property was also in my opinion great. Great Anniversary, Mahalo! Skip H.

  We have been coming here for years! Love the Hale Kai ...it is such a great place to stay. Very peaceful and nice. I do need to say that termites are an issue! They were an issue last year and same this year. Arrived with a bunch of termites flying all over the kitchen. Last year there were termites all over the couch.....please address this! Also, perhaps the railing could be cleaned of bird droppings. I do love that this unit upgraded the bathroom. Much needed and it was very nice! And dishwasher didn't work. Just need to keep track of maintenance but this would not prevent me from staying again.

  • Manager Responded on 8/17/2015

    Aloha and many thanks for retuning to #202. This year termites have been busy on the islands due to prevailing winds and are spot treated. With our beautiful tropical setting, occasionally birds rest on the railings and enjoy ocean views. We encourage all guests to notify the office if anything needs attention and a remedy or update should be provided. Our recent bathroom upgrade adds the final touch of ambience to our oceanfront location. Mahalo, Jack Dodson #202

  Stay: April 5-14. Arrived late & were dismayed to find there wasn't adequate bedding for our girls' convertible beds (sofas w/ back cushions removed). Made do & staff provided more towels, sheets & blankets next day. Unit was stone's toss from the ocean & bordered a community beach park. From lanai we watched humpbacks breaching & sea turtles below. Saw gorgeous sunsets here daily. On other side of pool there's a small beach where we watched a resting sea turtle! Loft was underused by us, but we found straw mats & a cooler for beach use. Bathroom was updated & clean.Bed was saggy in the middle but fine. Kitchen had necessities but could have used more tumblers,mugs. Kitchen lights often went out & would later come back on, minor inconvenience. Sound of surf was soothing but woke us with its intensity each night. Condo was quiet. Grounds were gorgeous, lush, well kept. Manager was friendly & provided more beach towels when asked. Parking was tight. Conveniently located. Small farmer's market across the street (M-W-F). Would definitely stay again!

  This was our 37th year at the Hale Kai. We totally enjoy the manager, Valerie Kane, as she is helpful in every way. Gabby, the cleaning lady is nice, and tries to keep things clean, and my wife assists by cleaning and sweeping every other day. No complaint, just that cleaning is infrequent.
  The Hale Kai needs a grounds manager. The deck is sand covered most days, the umbrellas, new, need to be more strongly secured, and the grills, new, need help. I feel for management as the grounds person is at best, barely adequate.
  We love the Hale Kai, but since booking on line has taken over, you have lost many long term vacationers. Too bad!
  Thanks for asking.

  Jon N from Fullerton, CA recommends this vacation rental

  We had a great stay at Hale Kai. Every morning and actually any downtime we had was spent on the porch overlooking the beach and park next door.istening to the sound of the waves as we fell asleep and again as we woke up was awesome. The Hale Kai is ideally located, away from the business of Lahaina and Kaanapali but close enough to enjoy their amenities. Favorite beaches were Slaughterhouse and Fleming, best swimming at a city park just south of the Hyatt by the Canoe Club, best walk was from just north of Lahaina along the water to Black Rock by the Sheraton in Kaanapali. Stayed local the whole time. No ride to Hana this time but a must if you've never done it - it's an entire day excursion. Avoid the Kaanapali beachside restaurants, pack lots of picnics for the beach, Teddy's Burgers and Lahaina Pizza highly recommended. We would stay at Hale Kai again, particularly our unit 202. Great breeze through the unit keeps things nice and cool and fresh.

  We stayed in unit 202 for 7 days just through the recent July 4th Holiday. Hale Kai is very conveniently located to Northwest Maui sights and services and the small size complex fit what we were looking for well. Well maintained grounds, proxmity to good snorkeling and beaches, sea turtle viewing, proximity to reasonable eating options and supermarket are all pluses. Unit does deliver the great views of the ocean from the balcony - the pictures do not lie. Public beach park next door never very crowded even during holiday week and not noisy. The unit itself has had some upgrades but could still use a few others to make it perfect. All in all a great stay at Hale Kai.

  We have been at the Hale Kai for 36 years, and obviously love it.We have been in 202 for the last several years, and we feel that it is the pick unit at Hale Kai. We have reserved for 2015.
  The manager(s) Valerie and Liz are wonderful. Valerie is full time, and is the top manager that we have known, and we go all the way back to Ernie and Peg in 1978. All managers have been good, with maybe one exception, and that took care of itself.
  Our unit (202) is in some transition, as Randy passed on, but his partner spouse Jack is still owning the unit, and we are grateful.
  Valerie, Liz and Moose are a special and loving team.
  We have sent many to the Hale Kai.

  • Manager Responded on 3/18/2014

    Aloha Bill & Joan, Thank you for your loyalty and patronage at Hale Kai for 36 years.

  The view cannot do this location justice. Just imagine listing to the lapping of the wave as you fall asleep. The unit is very clean, the staff are wonderful, and the permanent residents are very welcoming and friendly. We stayed there 6 days and as soon as you walk in you feel at home. In an area 6 miles from the hustle and bustle of the crowds. Great beach next door. This was our last place to stay during our 3 week vacation, and it was the BEST.

  We couldn't have been happier with the condo and our time there was wonderful from beginning to end. Our favorite feature was the lanai overlooking the park, beach and ocean - we spent hours enjoying the view! The unit was clean and comfortable, the pool delightful, the reef sea life and turtles were fun to observe, and the people were kind and helpful in every way. If and when we return to Maui we won't hesitate to book #202 again!

  brian o from santa ynez, California recommends this vacation rental

  The Hale Kai was exactly as advertised, nothing more and nothing less. The pictures and information give you a great idea of what you are getting, we really appreciate that. It is a quiet and friendly, low key place to stay. We really enjoyed the farmers market every other day, excellent people and products, the little store, and Boss Frogs all right across the street. Loved the views and sea turtles everyday. We actually liked snorkeling better up at Honolua Bay or Kanaapali Beach better in case you love snorkeling. Check with Boss Frogs and definitely rent an underwater camera!

  Valerie Kane-A wonderful manager, and a fine person. All of our past managers have been fine, but she stands above all. A delightful lady.
  Liz- A fine lady who is a good help to Valerie on Thursday and Saturday. Very helpful.
  Moose- A joyful addition. Quiet and very capable and helpful.
  Gabby- A great housekeeper, and a very nice lady.

  We have stayed at Hale Kai 4 times, the last 3 in #202. We love the location of Hale Kai in general, and will continue to stay there even as we expand to need a 2 bed/2 bath unit. Access to a beach/water, park (boys soccer/football), The Market or coffee is steps away. We love #202 for location also - sitting on lanai can view park, beach, ocean & Lanai Island. From master bed can view pool and ocean. The unit is well cared for and always clean.

  The property was clean and well equipped. Our unti had a wonderful view of the ocean and the park next door. We loved the small pool on site and the occupants were very friendly and welcoming.

  a guest from Oakland, CA recommends this vacation rental

  Aloha! We can't wait to get back to Hale Kai! One word, "Awesome!", describes everything! We already have our next unit picked out and we are looking at dates. The poolside views are amazing! Come for the views, but stay for the "turtle watching" and the sunsets. It's simply magnificent to watch the sunset between Lanai and Molokai. You might as well just bbq your dinner there poolside because the view and sunset doesn't get any better! The one suggestion we would like to make is have the maintance crew sync up the timers for the sprinkler system. Falling asleep to the crashing surf right out your window is wonderful, but waking up literally three times every night by different sprinklers turning on is not ideal! It's louder than the surf and both of us experienced this through out the week we stayed at Hale Kai. definately a small price to pay for staying in paradise!!!
  Mahalo!!!

  • Manager Responded on 10/8/2012

    Aloha Kelly Mahalo for the kind words. I will talk to the maintance crew and see if we can do something about the sprinklers. So glad you enjoyed your stay and our property. Mahalo Valerie

  Denyele and Robert K from Simi Valley, California recommends this vacation rental

  We have vacationed all over the United States and out of the country but this was our first time in Maui. My husband, 19-year old daughter and myself stayed at the Hale Kai Condos in #202 and could not have asked for a better place. It was the perfect size for us, located right on the beach, just North of Lahaina...true perfection. We swam in the ocean with the turtles, just outside of our condo every day. We hate breakfast every day and night on the patio overlooking the ocean. We slept at night with the windows open hearing the beautiful sounds of the ocean. We couldn't have asked for nicer property and the staff were the best. We will be back!

  • Manager Responded on 8/17/2012

    Aloha Denyele Our property is small, quiet & quaint. The turtles are called the Honokowai turtles and have their own web site. We are lucky that they feed right off our property. Knowing you enjoyed your stay makes my day. Vacations are special and everyone should a special time to remember. Aloha and hope to see you back in the near future. Mahalo Valerie
