Unforgettably great stay!!
Nothing but great things to say about our stay at Maalea Banyans. Check-in/Out process was very streamlined, room was very clean upon arrival, and the management was very professional by being available at any time while leaving us to our peace and quiet at all times. Turtles to QUIETLY observe every evening without fail, friendly cats that will come spread love every now and then, sounds of the ocean less than 100’ from our patio day and night, and overall quiet environment to enjoy 24 hours of every day. Absolutely recommend to anyone visiting the island looking for peace and quiet with the best type of Island-feel you can get. First place we’ll be checking availability for from here on when planning trips to Maui 👌

Condo unit
Even tho the bath had been remodeled/updated, the unit was a bit dated. The curtains were not properly affixed to the slides, the louvered glass shutters we dirty with cob webs, the door jams were scuffed up, the TV channels would go off and back on, there were two coffee pots, one was missing the drip container and the table top had some swollen wood, needs refinished.

Wonderful two-week stay
We loved the quiet central location of this condo. It was great being on the ground floor for ease of access to the lawn and BBQ area. The condo was clean and well stocked. We could see whales from the back patio. Would definitely stay again.

Great little condo
Nic updated kitchen and bath. Liked the ground floor location. Needs a beach umbrella and one more beach chair (has 2 camping chairs which are heavy and not really beach chairs per se) Other than that well equipped. We loved it.

Awesome condo and the view is incredible
Aloha! This condo was spotless and had everything I needed for a great stay in Maui. Also very close to several great adventures on and under the ocean. Took a snorkling/snooba trip from the marina right next door. 10 min walk was great in the morning to the harbor. The grilling area was very clean as well. I will definitely stay here again when my travels bring me to Maui.

Nice location and place
Couple of minor things needed fixing. Worst part was the linens didn’t seem clean and had a bad odor. The place smelled like mildew. Nice water views but if you’re laying out outside, the bushes hide the views a bit.

needs work.
The bathroom is a total screw up. No fan, check for mold, no grab bar in the shower in case of slipping, no mat for floor to prevent slippage, no counter space and the water tap is beyond anything. No way to check temperature. No way to get water in the sink. The lighting in the kitchen is becoming quite dangerous. The search light in the livingroom doesn't help either. The patio door glass and the mirrors on the lanai haven't been cleaned in a very long time. We bought rubber mat for tub, mat for floor, light bulbs and got the Mgr to put new batteries in the TV.

great, cozy place, perfect location
I loved our stay in this condo. It was a perfect location for our family to explore the island, very close to ocean center as well as the harbour, where the snorkelling/snuba ships take off from. the condo itself had all the needed amenities for us, including beach chair and towels, only thing I missed was an umbrella. beautiful lawn outside to chill during the day (the sun is there during the day, some shade only early mornings and evenings), a lot of turtles comjng to the beach! we stayed with a toddler who slept with us, so we had no extra stuff like travel bed or hugh chair etc. but if you need it just go on babyquip, great possibility to rent whatever you need for babies. even if it could have been more clean, I liked it a lot and would love to come back, it’s a place to be here in Maui! property manager is super helpful to give you any possible hints where to go, what to do, etc.! Mahalo!

Loved our stay
This property had everything needed for a great stay! Full kitchen, washer and dryer, beach towels and bag. The best part was waking up to the sound of waves right outside our lanai. Definitely would come back!!

Great place!
This condo and property are just as advertised! We loved the location- between Kihei and Lahaina. It is quiet, with a beautiful view of the ocean. We saw many whales and turtles from our lanai. There is no beachfront but a beautiful beach is a short walk away. We loved the pool and hot tub on the property.

Nice time in Maui
The view from the patio was incredible. We enjoyed the condo. The bedroom was warm and my husband slept on the couch a few nights. Other than that, it was great.

Perfect spot to stay
This was a great spot to stay, especially since we had excursions/activities planned all over the island. Everything was clean. Keypad access was nice to have.

This unit is just as described. It’s a comfortable place for a couple and great to look out to the ocean. Biggest surprise was the unit has nice high-end appliances.

A great stay!!
We stayed for 9 nights, it was a beautiful clean property. Check in and out instructions were simple and clear. I loved Maalaea in Maui, it was peaceful but a short drive to some busier beaches and places. Beach bums down the road was a great spot for bar and food. Communication with the owner was very easy, highly recommend this stay!

Maalaea Banyans #102
Great for the most part. The entrance could use a better bulb. It's so dark at night and difficult to see lock box. Condo was well equipped. Bed was pretty comfortable and it's mostly quiet in the evening. I wish there was a curtain above a/c unit for privacy. I had a wonderful time! Thank you so much for a comfortable stay.

Fantastic Property & Location
I'll admit that we had some concerns about being in Ma'aleaa instead of a more populated area, but this condo rental was perfect. There are a handful of restaurants and a small store within easy walking distance and the general area is very peaceful without any road noise at all. The condo is well-appointed and has everything you would need for a trip to Maui.

Relaxing Vacation
Beautiful property! This unit is just close enough to the pool and grill for convenience but not so close that we were ever bothered by any noise. The pool and jacuzzi are awesome except for closing down at 8. Middle of Maui so either direction is a quick hop. Great restaurants in the aquarium square. Highly recommend if you don't mind driving around the island. One wish is that there were any drawers in the bedroom so you can unpack from the suitcase to feel a little more home away from home.

Relaxing, quiet condo with great view. In-unit washer/dryer was very nice. Kitchen was well stocked. Not enough outlets and lighting was poor. Drape did not cover the entire window and slider. No blind or drape for window over air conditioner.

Great place except
Very clean updated Bedroom, amazing Bathroom and Kitchen. The dining room chairs were very worn and one was ripped. Couch was comfy although no where to put your feet up after a long fun beach day so we used the worn out chairs. Overall it was great, Living area needs some updates too. Thanks, Jen and Al

Aloha Jen and Al, Thank you for leaving a great review! And thank you especially for pointing out the dining room chairs. We will reach out to the owner and find something new. I will also see what kind of options we can add for those looking to put their feet up. We are glad you enjoyed your stay and we hope to welcome you back again soon. Take care! -CB Island Vacations
