The house was perfect for 6 adults (my husband and I,our 2 adult children one significant other and my brother). We traveled to Maui for my nephews wedding. One night we grilled steaks and fish for 12 people. The house was perfect for entertaining! We played horseshoes and just hung out and got reacquainted with family!
It was also very nice to be able to walk to the beaches & good resturants! We rented kayaks and surfboards just a short walk from the house.
We hope to be able to return to Maui and stay at this wonderful home again!

This place was awesome and perfect for family holidays. It is in walking distance of beaches, shopping, restaurants and a playground. The yard is nice and big and safely secured; perfect for younger ones to play safely (there is even a sandbox). This house is nicely furnished with some unique characteristics. It was bright and clean. It has all the amenities you can think of and more. I hope you enjoy your stay as much as we did.

What a great place! The house is close to all amenities & a 2 minute walk to two beaches. Not only are all the essentials provided, it also has a relaxing homey feel. We had a great holiday with exceptional accomodations & look forward to returning. I will definitely recommend this house to anyone going to Maui.

We stayed at the house from 9/30 - 10/6. We were in Maui for my wedding in 10/5. It well exceeded all of our expectations. The house was extremely clean, beautifully decorated and well equipped, we didn't miss a thing. The lawn chairs, beach umbrella, snorkeling gear and boogie boards really came in handy. Very spacious for our group of 6 adults. My husband and I got a different condo for our second week/honeymoon and it was not nearly as comfortable or as clean as the beach house was. We cannot wait to come back again someday, it really felt like our home away from home!

We stayed at the house from September 6, 2007 to September 12, 2007. This was by far, our nicest vacation rental experience. The attention to detail and great location made this an unforgettable experience.

Our friends were renting two other houses in Kihei, the price was comparable, but the other homes were not as comfortable, clean, or well appointed as MauiBeachWalk. From Bali to Belize, this is the best!!

We stayed at this property from 4/14/07 - 4/21/07 and loved every minute of it! The house was clean, well decorated and very roomy for our group of 6 adults. The location can't be beat. Charlie Young Beach is just steps away. Shops and resturants are just a short walk. We would love to stay here again. Highly recommended.

My family and I spent a terrific Christmas at the house. The location was perfect - a 2 minute walk to the Charley Young beach, which was gorgeous and uncrowded, and an easy walk to many shops and restaurants. Everyting in the house was clean, up-to-date and in good condition. The house is stocked with beach towels, bath towels, soap, shampoo, a hairdryer, dishwashing and laundry detergent, etc. Mercedes, the housekeeper, is also terrific and responded quickly and efficiently to a minor problem we had with the refrigerator/icemaker. I highly recommend this property!

We stayed here the last two weeks in August 2006 to celebrate our 25th anniversary with our two adult children and their 'significant others'(age 22-24). It was a perfect choice for us. We appreciated all the attention to detail in the home.... beach towels and chairs, ice and (filtered) water on the fridge, laundry facilities, great ambiance, large yard with four separate places to sit around the house, (warm) outdoor shower, and more.....You won't be disappointed!
The location is fantastic for those who want to be in town rather in a resort-type area, but also within walking distance to the beach. (I ended up walking home to shower rather than use the public one...It is that close!)
We mostly cooked for ourselves (Costco is a 20 drive minute away.)but also walked to some very good restaurants. Kayak, surf board and bike rentals are within walking distance. There are at least two walk-in clinics close.
We had to contact the owner for some internet hook-up information and he responded right away.
The house is gated, and has a security system. We never felt at risk.
I can't recommend this house highly enough! It is up for sale, but I can only assume that another owner would look after it as well. I would definitely book it again! Thank you to Jeff for sharing it with others.

Dear Jeff, We found the house to be
perfect. We loved Kihei and the more
relaxed atmosphere on that side of the
island. The Kihei caffe (just down the
street) had the perfect breakfast. We
really enjoyed both nearby beaches. I
would highly reccomend this property to
anyone thinking of renting in Maui. We
have rented homes everywhere from
Thailand to Portugal and this was one
of the best.

We had a wonderful stay at your beachhouse. The
accomodations were outstanding, the proximity to
the beach was especially convenient, and we liked
how the house was set back from the street so it
seemed isolated from the rest of the surrounding
homes. Thank you for making our Maui vacation so
pleasant. We would recommend this home to any
of our friends.

Dear Jeff --
I just wanted to take a moment to thank you so much for our time in Maui.
The properties, all three of them, were perfect for our group. Your house (2165) is a gorgeous house, with all the amenities one could ever ask for, and the close proximity to the beach house (2192) was perfection - just like our living situation here in Los Angeles where all of us live in the same apartment complex. We couldn’t have asked for a better vacation.
Thank you so much for you and your professional staff for making our vacation and Dan & Susan’s wedding better than any of us could have anticipated.
I have made sure that our entire group has your contact information to forward to all of their family and friends for any future trips to the island.
Best,
Laura Cohen

Dear Jeff, We had a fantastic time in Maui. The house was nicer than we ever imagined. As soon as we walked in the front door we were wowed. The flooring, woodwork, showers and especially the tub outside the bedroom were just beautiful. We loved Charlie Young beach, just a short walk from the house. We hope to visit Maui again and hope to use the house again if it is still available. Thanks for all your help. The Miller family.

My husband and I were married on Maui and stayed here while celebrating our 10 year anniversary. We could not have been more pleased with this beautiful house and the relaxing environment. The private outdoor tub, which fits two, was a lovely and romantic and we look forward to a return visit on our next trip to the island. The beaches were absolutely perfect!

MauiBeachWalk is a beautiful house inside and out. The large private front yard was great for play time and relaxing and the home interior is very nicely appointed. Charlie Young beach is a very short walk and great for swimming. Cove Park is, again, just a short walk for surfing. Golf, shops and resorts of Wailea are just a short drive. Our family enjoyed the accomodations completely.

Hi Jeff:

My family and I LOVE your place! We
were in Maui for the first time to
attend a wedding and made the best
choice by staying at your vacation
home. It was greater than we ever
imagined! Access to the beaches
was wonderful, the house was
beautifully designed and had the
greatest special touches, the yards
were great for barbecues and
relaxing, the location was IDEAL
since it was VERY close to shopping
centers and grocery stores. We are
definitely going to stay at your place
the next time we're in Maui.

DON'T PASS UP THE
OPPORTUNITY TO STAY AT THIS
HOME! IT WILL BE THE BEST
CHOICE YOU EVER MADE --
GUARANTEED!

I originally came across the property on the internet and really liked what I saw, but if I have one comment it's that even your website really doesn't do it justice.

The location is terrific; we were able to easily walk to two beaches (coined 'the surfing beach' & 'the boogie board beach' after we rented some boards for the week), as well as restaurants and shopping, yet felt like we had all the privacy in the world (in fact, we arrived at night and the first morning there we actually walked by the property TWICE coming back from the beach, being secluded and set back from the road like it is we went right by). The house itself is wonderful, with more than we could have expected in terms of furnishings, outfitting, and 'nice touches' that made it a nice place to hang out when the day was done.

In short, the experience exceeded all of our expectations, and my family now thinks of me as a high-roller! Hope to come back again sometime, and would recommend the house to anyone.

Thanks again!

Hey Jeff,

I just wanted to drop you a quick note to say that this place is incredible!

We're just floored at how nice your house is. You should be very proud of what you're providing your guest during their stay on this beautiful island. We're all so happy to call it home for the next few days!

Thank You!

Mr. Galvin,

I wanted you to know that we had a great time visiting Hawaii.

The stay at your lovely home made the trip all the more special.

There is not a single thing to complain about or suggest for you to change.

The decorations, the landscaping and the location far exceeded our expectations.

While we are not yet planning a return visit, I cannot think of another place on the planet that I would rather return to.

When we began looking for a place for ten members of our family to spend a Hawaiian vacation we had no idea that we'd find anything this wonderful. Not only is the house the greatest, most comfortable place - - the location is to die for - - beaches are close, great restaurants and shopping are only minutes away. We will do this again!!! What can I say - - You're going to love it.
