We booked thru vrbo. Unit 616, it was very nice, super close to the water, at most 25 feet. The condo itself was spacious enough for 2 people. 1 bedroom/1bath. Sparkling clean, with all amenities if you wanted to cook, even a grill on the lanai. There were books to borrow in the lobby, plus games, tennis, and a huge pool. Those were the pluses, the minues were that the beach was tiny, the renters/owners older, the walls very thin. (we were in a 2nd floor condo) We quickly learned to walk in very quietly so that the 3rd floor condo people wouldn't blast their stereo to drown out our noise. After that, it was pretty peaceful. Plus, Kahana is a long way from Wailea, where the nicer weather happened to be during our vacation. Our condo was pretty up to date but it really needed a new bed, and she did say she was going to purchase a new one but that didn't help us. Altogether, I would stay again with this owner.

I have stayed in my unit 6 times in the past 2 years and have never heard loud music.I must admit I have found it very peaceful and serene except for the sounds of the waves in front and in the bedroom.I found it very helpful to fall asleep with the waves in the back ground.
I have replaced the queen size bed with a Cal king.
I have free internet access as well as free calling to the main land.
Plus free whale watching from the lanai because they come very close to my unit in the winter months.I have seen mom and calf several times with the escort whale close by.
The view is 270degrees with about 25 feet away from the water.You really can't beat this location on West Maui.
You may also fly in to West Maui airport { closes at 6 pm due to no night lights and not noisy at all} and just walk down the Akahele rd to the Kuleana.Your own private airport so close!!!!!!!!!!
Hope to hear from you soon.
