Amazing Views
The views from this condo were absolutely amazing ! The entire complex was a beautiful property. We walked to the little Cafe/Market close to the Ritz every morning for coffee. Steps right outside the condo lead to the beach and a hiking trail. The interior had plenty of space for our family that included 2 adults and 4 teens 15/15/17/17. Two master suite bathrooms that were huge and a smaller bathroom with a shower. Kitchen was completely stocked and plenty of linens as well. Small air conditioning issue when we arrived - that we called on and they had someone there within 10 minutes - Great Service !! One of the pools on the property is right outside your front steps and hardly anyone was ever there.
Totally recommend this property !!!
Wonderful Getaway
Our family of 6 had such a wonderful time staying here. There is a calm beach (Kapalua bay beach), a wavy beach/windy beach (Oneola beach), and even some cliff jumping (Namlu Bay) all within walking distance!! The only thing we would have done different is stock up and just eat all our meals at the Condo. Most of the restaurants close by were weeks long waiting lists, or outside the shuttle area. All in all this was a fantastic place to stay for some amazing memories.

Beautiful View!
We have stayed in several units in Kapalua, and this has hands down the best view. It is positioned perfectly in the front row right on the ocean, and the sunsets and whale sightings are spectacular. Yes, the interior could use a little updating, but it was clean, and who cares when you've got that view? It never gets old! We felt very lucky to be there, and we will be back.

Jaw-dropping Spot!
This condo boasts close to 360* views of beautiful Kapalua Bay. The space was perfect for our group--two coulples with one child each. The bedrooms both have spacious and luxurious master baths and balconies attached for privacy. Kitchen was stocked with what we needed to prepare meals and there were beach chairs and towels ready for use. Vacation of a lifetime!

See the waves from your bed
We were able to obtain a great condo in a Fantastic location. it was just above the cliffs and the waves to the left of Oneloa Beach..The property was clean and accurate in the description, kitchen very well stocked and the beach chairs and umbrellas wonderful. Lots of towels and air conditioning good, my daughter who is always slept in the iceberg room, and I stayed where I could listen to the waves all night. I guess I’m going to have to fight for this condo again, we loved it. Hey can we get priority?

Ocean front with great views
The previous renter probably loved the heat, and kept the windows open and the A/C off. When we got there, the A/C was not strong enough to cool the unit below 80F, and we had to deal with 3 cockroaches in the first 2 days. However, the property manager was quick to bring in 2 portable units to help cool the suite, and we never saw another cockroach once we kept the windows and doors closed. The unit has not been updated in a while. For example, the kitchen countertops are old 2 inch tiles, and it is impossible to keep all of that grout clean. However, everything works, and the price is lower than the neighbouring units that have been renovated more recently. The large appliances are all reasonably new and work well. We have stayed here several times over the years, and already have plans to return next year. The pools and barbeques are very close by, as is the beach at Oneloa Bay. The free resort shuttle service is great for getting to 2 of the best beaches on the Island - Napili and D.T. Flemming - or to the local ABC store for coffee and food staples.

Beautiful Views
The views were as advertised and very wonderful. The unit itself was in need of a lot of upgrades in order to be considered a gold level unit. Location alone should not be the only determining factor. The furnishings were extremely dated. The kitchen was very small fairly well equipped but mainly a one person kitchen. We have stayed in many different units in the Ridge and the Bay Villas over the years. This unit does have exceptional views, would be nice to have a larger lani but being its on the second floor, not possible. It was nice to be so near the pool and we enjoyed watching the weddings taken place on the rocks in front of the unit. We will rent in the Bay Villas again but probably a unit that is on ground level and that has been updated.

Beachfront in Maui - Jan. 2020
The unit is in a great location. Lots of restaurants close by and the best golf in Hawaii is discounted for staying at these villas. I saw plenty of whales from my balcony. The unit is close to the beach and steps to a pool. Although the bathrooms are slightly outdated everything else about the unit is great. The location is the best in the complex and I would rent this same unit again.

The location of this unit was exceptional. The views of Molokai were breathtaking. Whales and dolphins were seen daily. The furnishings were a little tired and could have used some updating. The beds were a bit uncomfortable. Loved the place and with a few updates the unit goes from a 4 star to a 5 star.

Kapalua Paradise
We love Kapalua and this villa is perfect for an ocean front view. It is close to hike the trails along the beach, right next to a pool, and a short hike to the beach. It has 2 masters with large master baths, though a tad outdated. One of the masters has a noisy portable air conditioned unit which was annoying as it boomed off and on periodically through the night. The other master with 2 queens is much nicer and more updated. There is a 3rd bathroom with a shower that is nice. The kitchen is nice and has lots of supplies. The unit had 4 beach chairs and a boogie board which was wonderful! Mostly, we loved that this unit is upstairs so it makes it easier to load and unload your car. There are gorgeous views! The pic with the chaise is from a small bedroom balcony. The larger balcony across the front of the villa is very shallow so it can only accommodate chairs. Basically, the unit’s local is great and the furnishings are nice. We will be back again!

Kapalua Bay Front Villa
This was a perfect location for for my nephews wedding at Merrimans, The unit was the perfect size for my 2 adult sons, husband and self. Master BR & bathroom were large with walkout deck & lounge chairs, beautiful view of the bay, boys BR nice size, 2 double beds with deck & bay view w 2 chairs. Kitchen & bathrooms are older but clean & adequate, Nice furniture throughout with stunning views of the Bay & Kapalua Trail, Front deck off living room w chairs for morning coffee at sunrise & breathtaking sunsets sipping mai tais. Pool next door very convenient for quick swim or lounging has a grill & eating area. The kitchen amenities have the basics you need drip coffee maker, dishwasher, microwave but the 2 rear burners on the stove not working. We ate out most so not a huge deal but need repair. They did supply 4 comfy beach chairs, beach towels & several hair dryers & ample bath towels. We loved the location a short walk to Kapalua Bay for snorkeling, hiking on trail, & Oneloa Bay. Close drive to Lahaina for the luaus, dinner, shopping. Would definitely stay here again- breathtaking views & location.

We loved our vacation rental!
This was our 3rd visit to Kapalua Bay Villas. We love it here and the view is spectacular. We found the villa very clean and comfortable and everything we needed. The kitchen is stocked with pots, pans and a rice cooker. Ample bowls, glasses and stemware for any need. There was salt, pepper and random spices in the cupboard. You will need to purchase everything else, as usual.There was apparently someone who had trouble with the toaster prior to our visit and would like to be sure to mention that a new toaster and coffee maker (both still in the box) were brought to us when we arrived. Management is extremely quick to respond (usually same day)if you let them know WHILE YOU ARE THERE of any difficulties. (We had NO problems at all.) We watched whales thru a telescope which was on site! The balconies provide sun or shade, whichever you prefer. This is the first time we have used the pool since we prefer the beach, and it was lovely, clean and refreshing! Plenty of towels in the villa and lots of lounge chairs for sunning. I would recommend this as one of our favorite locations. Be sure to try"The Fish Market Maui" in Honokowai for fresh fish plate lunch. It's soooo delicious! We will return!

This oceanfront Villa is definitely that...ocean view from the whole villa! The property description didn’t start to give you the paradise feeling that we had!
The villa has lots of room. Tile floors throughout. Comfortable seating. A lanai for each bedroom and living area! Very clean and well maintained. Excellent communication with customer service!
The pool was great with tables, umbrellas, and gas grills! The beautiful azure ocean was just a short walk from our lanai!
We would highly recommend this property for a wonderful and peaceful vacation!

Very enjoyable vacation rental. Breath taking ocean front view. Very clean and well equipped. Love the fact it had two master bedrooms, plus extra two piece bathrooom with washer and dryer. The pool was clean with nice loungers and a bbq if needed. We enjoyed walking to restaurants close by. Our favourite was the Merriman Restaurant. Great for appetizers on their deck watching the sunset. Reservations needed for dinner.

Wonderful Christmas/New Year stay
I had reserved this unit a year earlier to get the best two bedroom location as we were bringing our daughter and husband to spend time with for Christmas. At the time all the reviews were excellent or very good. Then right before our stay there was a bad review. I had reservations that I did not pick the right unit for us. However, I talked to Vicky at Aloha Vacation Villas, the renting agent, and she addressed all of my concerns. We arrived to a spotless and clean smelling unit that had a view to die for. The unit was equipped with everything needed for our stay. There were sufficient glasswear, dishes, new pots and pans and even backpack beach chairs and boogie board! Although it was not an upgraded "gold" unit, it was furnished lovely and spotless, not soiled and worn as a former review had stated. We did have one issue with the dryer on New Year's Day. We had Aloha Vacation Villa's maintenance onsite with a repair person same day! Don't know how you can even do that on a holiday. We also got our mid-stay linen change arranged by Vicky the day I requested done by the most hard working and accommodating housekeepers. We only had the one dryer issue; no issues with anything else. But if there had been, I am assured that they would have been addressed by Vicky and her team immediately and with satisfaction. I give the unit 5 stars, but I would give Vicky 5 plus if I could. Excellent service from beginning to end!

Great Location Beautiful Views
If you're looking for stunning views of waves crashes on cliffs, with a quick walk to what might as well be a private beach, then this is the place for you. We just finished a week long stay, and could have stayed a lifetime. The unit has simple beach furnishings, which is actually nice given the environment, with floor to ceiling windows throughout. The pictures do not give the views justice at all.
The only downside is that the washing machine smells a bit moldy, but I don't think that's anything that can't be fixed with a good cleaning.
Will definitely be back.

Great location - time for some updating
A wonderful location in the Bay Villa Complex. My only reservation in not giving this unit 5 stars is that is is in need of upgrades to the kitchen, bathrooms, and window coverings. Attention to small maintentce items (safe didn't have a handle/ice maker didn't work) would be nice, but not a deal breaker. Overall, a fabulous location with a great layout for families.
Something Amazingly Beautiful every moment!
We loved every moment of our vacation & Condo at the Bay Villas. The interior is a bit older, but everything works and is in good condition. The location, views, nice daily breezes to cool you off...things could not get any better.

Mostly positive with a few negatives.
The view was incredible including sunsets and listening to the crashing waves through the night. Not having stairs was a definite plus.A serious negative was the fridge. The owner should seriously consider purchasing a new fridge. Three days in and our beer was sweaty at best certainly not nice and frosty.We were given 8 dishwasher tabs for a 10 day stay,really?Owner should purchase a full set of matching dishes,3 cereal bowls & 6 plates, 3 sandwich plates, very insufficient.Get a 4 slice good quality toaster.Dish rack for pots and pans plus more tea towels would be nice. Would recommend due to location and view but owner should seriously make some upgrades in the kitchen.

A great location
The unit is clean and has new appliances. It took a couple of days to get used to the dated bathrooms, fixtures, countertops but by the third day that all became less important. The views are amazing, there's lots of space, the furniture is above average, and even the pull out sofabed was comfortable. There was no telephone service while we were there but we were told the unit was in between providers and would soon have a new modem/router/telephone service, and the cell reception was fine. When we called about a cracked coffee carafe or needing more dishwasher soap, there was someone at our door within minutes with a new coffee maker or more supplies. The unit is ready for a bathroom and kitchen renovation, but we would still stay there again.

A Kapalua Gem
The experience for our family exceeded our expectations! The views are breath taking and you find yourself getting lost watching the whales jumping around in their ocean playground.
The place was very clean and the on site manager was prompt and looked after any requests immediately.
The Lanai off of the main bedroom didn't have the seating as pictured. For this being classified and priced out on the higher end I would recommend some of the dishes and utensils to be upgraded. The lounge seating is starting to run it's life cycle so I would have that re-upholstered or replaced.
We will be back!

Awesome Views and Spacious Accommodations
We enjoyed our stay at this condo in Kapalua Bay Villas. The layout of the condo was great, the views were spectacular, and there was plenty of room for 4 people. This is a wonderful oceanfront unit in a terrific location.
However, this condo is in need of updating and overall maintenance. The decor and furnishings are quite dated and the amenities in the unit are very scarce. We understand that the central A/C was recently added. While we appreciated the A/C, it was not completely effective due to the windows in the unit not being airtight. There is evidence of past humidity issues in the condo. We also had concerns about electrical outlets/wiring and overstuffed closets with miscellaneous items. I would recommend this unit with some reservations.

This Villa is a great Discovery
We just spent a week at this lovely villa on the ocean front in Maui. The pictures really do depict the scenery and the furnishings. The onsite property manager was extremely helpful. The ad for this villa is slightly misleading. It is airconditioned in both bedrooms but the main living area is not air conditioned but relys on the breezes through the windows. It is a perfect location...on the ocean, near beaches, golf, wonderful restuarants and the coastal walk way. I think it would be especially great for two couples or a couple with children. When we return to Maui, we would definelty stay here again.

Great Vacation!
Overall, the property was very nice. The view was incredible, being right on the ocean. We went during a week that was warmer than average and the condo did not have air conditioning. Because it was an upstairs unit, it stayed pretty warm. Having said that, the owners provided stand up air conditioning units in both bedrooms, so if we kept the bedrooms shut off, they stayed nice and cool so we could sleep! It was in a perfect location...close to the pool, ocean, beaches and the path that ran along the coast. We had a great vacation!
Great condos
Definitely would like to return. The next time we stay, we will get a unit with central air

Very nice, clean unit with a great location (stairs to small secluded beach are 50 yards away - beach has some waves and good for boogie boarding); stairs to small but nice private pool are even closer. Unit has a spectacular (almost 180 degree) view of the ocean and across the channel to island of Molokai. Can also walk to Kapalua Bay over scenic but mostly rocky path in about 10 minutes(somewhat busier beach with very calm water and good for swimming and snorkeling).
Only negative was no central air conditioning; each bedroom has a stand-alone cooling unit that is noisy but adequate.

Great View, Beatiful Furnishings
We moved to this condo after staying three nights in a differ condo in Bay Villas. (We booked late and there wasn't a condo available for the whole stay. We had to split our stay between two units). Jake arraned a late check out for us from the first unit so that we were able to move cold food and all of our luggage directly into the new condo after it had been cleaned. Loved the location, newer appliances, newer furnishings and decor. Living room could use more seating. Pull-out not great for adults. Condo sleeps 6 comfortably and up to 8 if two people sleep on the pull out. Three full bathrooms are great. Very spacious master. Second bedroom has two queen beds. This unit does not have central air, however the winds helped to cool off after opening windows. The bedrooms have protable a/c units however they leak water and were loud. I would stay here again. Very comfortable and spacious. I do wish we would have had access to the Kapalua spa for an occasional indoor work out. The charge was $50.00 per day- not worth paying just to lift weights and do some cardio for an hour. The trail/boardwalk (in front of Bay Villas along the ocean) and Fleming Beach (just north of Kapalua) were both awesome and we found a way to get our daily exercise. Be prepared to check out right at 11:00 if no late check out is available. There is no hospitality room. Our flight wasn't until midnight and we could not get the late check out from this unit.
