"We typically stay in the ma'alaea harbor area during our annual trip. This area is very centrally located and pretty quiet. This condo provided a beautiful view, a nice clean place to come home to, and things like an umbrella, chairs and other gear. The washer and dryer were also very useful to have inside the unit. Supplies were well stocked. Would definitely stay here again.

"Great location and views from the balcony! A lot of places were only a 15-25 min drive and a lot of beautiful beaches within walking distance or a 5-10 min drive. Kathy provided everything we needed and more. Laundry, kitchen stuff, beach umbrella, chairs, and towels. no AC in the bedroom but one in the living room with a pullout couch (great views from there). Checking in and out was very easy and cleaning staff reached out if we needed anything during our stay." - Rosa G. - (Aug 2021 - AirBnB)

"The condo was awesome and well located! Great view of the ocean, like advertised. The condo is very well furnished with about everything a tourist would need (including Safeway cards!) It was great to find fins there, as my son's fins turned out to be too small. The only negative point was about having to do part of the laundry before leaving, which was difficult considering our early departure. I think it's too much asking on top of $225 of housekeeping. But otherwise a great experience!" -Julie C. - (Jul 2021 - AirBnB)

"This place is a gem! My husband and I stayed here for our honeymoon and absolutely loved it. The condo itself is beautifully decorated, clean, spacious, gets the most amazing Maui breeze, has tons of amenities and extras (like beach gear!), is in a great location, and features endless books about Hawaii (loved that!). It's in the perfect spot between Lahaina and Kihei, making it easy to jump around the island. The views from the lanai are perfect for any time of day - we enjoyed eating breakfast and watching the waves crash every morning. There is a beach nearby, a short 5-min walk, where we saw sea turtles every single time we visited. Check-in and check-out were seamless! There was a sweet welcome gift upon arrival - Kathy really put so much thought into her place. Will definitely be staying here again! Thank you, Kathy!" - Alisha L. - (Jul 2021 - AirBnB)

"Great condo to have while traveling the island. Perfect size for a couple with a great balcony for morning coffee and unwind from the days' adventure. The grounds are well manicured and the office personnel is very helpful and friendly, she went above and beyond to help us out during our stay. The condo is not beachfront but does have a view of the bay, pool, and parking lot. Inside is beach-themed and has a great island feel." -Leslie D. - (May 2021 - AirBnB)

"This place is so great! So many fun extras in the condo, like books on the area, beach things, lovely stocked kitchen, and a washer and dryer! It's a quiet neighborhood with just the sound of the ocean. The airplanes' overhead did not bother us and we're not an issue. We loved this charming stay and wouldn't change a thing. The location is so close to everything yet out of the noisy resort-type scene. Can't wait to visit again!" - Sue W. - (Nov 2019 - AirBnB)

"Nice place centrally located if you're traveling around the island, not too many amenities in the immediate area, if you're looking for a really close beach access maybe not for you but if you're looking travel around the island like we did this place is as central as you can get. Can get a little hot in bedroom, window AC unit in living room and bedroom is on the other side of apartment. Overall a nice stay and good views!" - Tony A. - (Jul 2019 - AirBnB)

"Kathy's place was very clean and organized, with all the amenities... beach lounging amenities included. Use them and you'll save yourself some money. The view and location were great. Located only a few blocks from the Maui Ocean Center. Halfway between Lahaina and Kihei, and 20 min from the airport. Lots of things to do nearby and don't need to be with the large crowds of expensive resorts. Mahalo!" - Eric L. - (Jul 2019 - AirBnB)

"We enjoyed our stay at Island Sands. It was very comfortable and we never used the AC as the trade winds kept the condo very cool. The pool was nice and never crowded. At one end of the street was the beach and at the other end was the Maui Ocean Center and Aquarium where there were shops and restaurants. The location was between Kihei and Lahaina and was a short drive to either. The condo was very comfortable and nice to come home to in the evening. We loved celebrating our 40th Anniversary in Maui and at Island Sands." - Patricia P. - (May 2019 - VRBO)

Happy Honeymooners! 
 
"We were very lucky to find this unit for our honeymoon. All renovated and a lot of care has gone into the decoration. We enjoyed daily breakfast on the lanai which has great ocean views. The kitchen was well stocked, much more than other rentals we've stayed at so that was nice to take advantage of making smoothies or using the toaster oven. We were unsure about the location at first as most recommend to stay in Kihei or Lahaina, but it ended up being perfect as it's so central. For many activities, we saved 30 mins drive as we were very central. Thank you for making our honeymoon a memorable stay!" - Tania V. - (May 2019 - VRBO)

Island Sands 401 - Guest Stay June 2018 
"This condo is AMAZING. We were left an adorable "Hawaiian" welcome bag upon our arrival and were able to check in early. The unit is SO clean which was very important to us. We ate breakfast every morning on the lanai- the views of the ocean from there are unbeatable. The unit is well stocked with towels, toilet paper, paper towels, cooking/eating tools, and beach supplies. We were so impressed with how many things were at our disposal. We loved the boogie boards, sand chairs and beach umbrella! The complex is family friendly and very quiet. It was the perfect place to stay for our anniversary. One thing- the living room has AC, but the bedroom does not. There is an overhead fan as well as a box fan in the closet. When you use both, it's very comfortable. I would recommend this unit over and over again. Thank you! We loved your place! It was the perfect place to spend our anniversary. Thank you so much! " - Sarah and Brandon H. - (Jun 2018 - AirBnB)

"This condo is appointed with everything you may need on vacation, and Kathy was quick to respond to special requests. It's a beautifully decorated space, true to the photographs on Airbnb, and was clean and comfortable when we arrived. Ma'alaea is also a wonderfully convenient place to stay between Kihei and Lahaina, as well as being near the airport, so it was easy to travel around the island from here. We would definitely stay at this location again. We thoroughly enjoyed this beautiful space and the thoughtful gift bag you left for us on the first night. I will definitely be recommending this to friends who may visit Maui. Thanks again for a great experience!" - Ashely O. - (Jun 2018 - AirBnB)

"You will love the view of the ocean! Great location-centrally located between Lahaina and Kihei. Walking distance to the Maui Ocean Center! Immaculate condo with a great Maui beach vibe. Limited restaurants nearby but not a problem because kitchen is well stocked with all the necessary pots and pans to get you cooking (a real plus if you want to save money)! Loved having washer/dryer and wifi. This is a fantastic place to stay!!! Thank you so much for offering such a great place! We loved it! The condo was centrally located for where we wanted to be, super clean and we loved your thoughtfulness with the welcome basket. This was our first time using an airbnb and it was a fantastic experience!" - Jill B. - (Mar 2018 - VRBO)

A Hui Hou - We have stayed at many VRBOs (good and bad) and this condo gets on the A list. We really like Maalaea and are already making plans to come back again. This little town has its own vibe. It is not Kihei. It is not Lahaina. Beach Bums is great. We live in remote Alaska and spend winter's in Hawaii. This condo has the best lanai and fabulous view. Went to Iao Needle, but the path was closed. We understand it is now open. This spot is so beautiful and quiet and a historically significant place. - Gary and Judy L. - (Mar 2018)

Thank you. Mahalo for the wonderful accommodations! My husband and I really enjoyed your unit. Very clean and modern. I love all the little beach decors. This was our wedding anniversary. My husband and I were married in Oahu and have returned to the islands multiple times since our wedding in 2013. We love Maui and Oahu. We will return again. We have been coming here every year x2 since 2013. This is our 7th time. Amazing. We love Hawaii. Thank you for the lovely gift basket and card. The pineapple was so sweet we ate it the first day we arrived! Ha Ha! I will highly recommend this unit and Maui Vision Rentals to friends and family. Mele Kalikimaka. Mahalo!

We have had a marvelous stay in this location. Everything you could want or need for living is here in this condo. We appreciate all the great books you have on Maui, Hawaiian history and lore and other islands as well. The view is unbeatable! The location here on Hauoli Street is convenient to everything! Kihei, Lahaina, Kahului and beyond. Lynn, Thanks for the vintage Hawaiian Reyn Spooner clothing. It is nice to take an icon home. We can't say enough good things about staying in your condo.

Review #20958046 "Island Sands Unit 401 Ocean front ocean view! Quiet home listen to the sounds of the sea"  
Beautifully maintained property with stunning view  
 
We stayed for 3 weeks at Unit 401 and have since done nothing but brag to all our friends. The condo is beautiful and has everything you need for extended stays. Pretty remodeled kitchen with all cooking supplies, utensils, linens, soap for washer/dryer, dishwasher and probably the best king size bed we'd ever slept on. The lanai is to die for-very large with table and chairs and extra seating and the building is set so each unit has a full on ocean view, which is spectacular. The condo is much closer to the ocean than the picture shown. The building is very well taken care of and all the visitors and residents are extremely nice. We were lucky enough to meet the owner, who went out of her way to make sure we had everything we needed. Free coffee and donuts on Friday, pool small but never crowded and best grills we have ever seen. 
 
We also loved this area. Maui grew a lot since 1998 and Kihei is just too much noise and action for us. You can drive there very quickly though and tour the lovely beaches, have lunch, get groceries and get out there back to the piece and quiet of Maalaea Bay. Located within walking distance of the Aquarium and boat harbor, it is a charming area all its own. Beach Bums Restaurant was our favorite place to eat and all the staff treats you like family. Make your fishing, scuba, dinner sails all right there--no driving involved--just a pretty walk to the boat in the morning or evening. Deli and scuba and merchandise shops next to Beach Bums. 
 
We will stay again--am missing that lanai right now. Thank you for turning your condo into a vacation rental, Lynn.

We stayed here for 2 1/2 weeks and we loved it! We have stayed in many vacation condos but none had all the touches that this condo does. It is beautifully decorated and there are so many "little" things that add so much to the "Aloha" feeling we had here. Than you for such a lovely time!

"Lynn's place is awesome! From the moment we stepped in the condo and saw the welcoming note and gift basket, we knew we chose the right place to spend our honeymoon. The place is super clean, and the location is perfect! We had our own beach, which was a five minute walk away, and it was so peaceful. We saw turtles that came on to the shore to say hello, and plenty more hanging out in the shallow waters. The view from the condo balcony is so beautiful. Eating breakfast while watching the waves was a blast. This place was awesome and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a great trip to Maui! Kathy and Lynn Thank you so much for the great place, we really appreciate it and we had a blast!" - Thomas and Courtney F. - (Apr 2017)

This condo is a great location and the view from the deck is amazing. 
 
We loved our stay at the Island Sands this March 2017. The condo is equipped with everything that you need. It was very quiet in the unit and there was such a nice breeze that would blow through every day and night. We never used air conditioning.The longest walking beach in Maui is just a few blocks down the shore. This beach is beautiful. There is a wildlife preserve along the beach so there aren't any buildings along that stretch of beach for miles. It is very peaceful for walking and hanging out. There are sea turtles everywhere there. We spent hours watching them swim and eat. Our location was pretty central to everything making it very convenient. We would recommend this condo and we would stay there again. Thank you Kathy for sharing this unit with us. Don and Marie
