Comment: This unit needs some attention: - caulking in the shower was black and tearing off in places -drapes/blinds needed in living room -stained mattress cover on pull-out couch -dirty windows looked as if they hadn't been cleaned for a year -old & dusty plastic plants -old wicker chair in living room useless and uncomfortable. -CD player doesn't work We love Kihei Surfside but would not stay in this unit again unless the owners make some changes.

Fabulous Maui Vacation

Comment: Kihei Surfside has been my favorite place to stay on Maui since 1985. The location is perfect, the grounds are awesome and the condos are very comfortable and well equipped. Unit 513 was an exceptional condo with everything we needed inside and out! We highly recommend it and look forward to our next visit. Aloha & Mahalo!

Best condo location in Kehei

Mark & Patti T. Edmonton, Al, Canada [09/05/2009]

Over All	Management	Cleanliness	Location	Condition	Recommend

Comment: This was our first time visiting Maui. We had a great time & this condo was very well located for any sort of activity. Close to all amenities & beaches. No air conditioning but that was no problem as the breeze from the trade winds cools the place nicely. The only problem we had was due to our inexperience. Our return flight left Maui at 11:00pm & our check out time was 11:00am the same day. We had no where to secure our luggage for the 12 hours on the last day in order to enjoy one last afternoon on the beach. We would have appreciated the heads up about this when we first booked. Otherwise,we would have booked the condo for one extra day.

Comment: We didn't realize that the unit didn't have aircon but the fans kept us cool enough. It would have been nice for the kitchen to have more condiments for cooking. We were forced to leave early due to the extermination schedule.

Comment: We enjoyed our stay, here, the only problem was the room had not been cleaned before our arrival. But the property manager looked after us the very next morning. The location was great with a fantastic view of the ocean and with the West Exposure, you could watch the sun set every night. We really enjoyed the location, you could walk to Kehei restaurants and shops or go South along miles of beaches and you are right on the water, so no roads to cross. Good secure parking. The only potential negative are the wild roosters crowing at 4-5am.from the green space area. Other than that it was fantastic!

513 Kihei Surfside

Kansas City, MO, United States [09/17/2010]

Over All	Management	Cleanliness	Location	Condition	Recommend

Comment: We've stayed at the Kihei Surfside several times over the years, always loving the seaside location and the nearness (next door!) of a great beach. We commend the availability of recycling onsite. The 513 unit we occupied this time had great updates: beautiful flooring, nice kitchen cabinets, counters and appliances. However, the updated appeal was rather ruined by the furnishings: worn, dated, uncomfortable, and somewhat dusty/moldy seeming wicker-type furniture in the living area and bedroom drug down the overall ambience to a less-than-appealing level. Replacing all the furniture would help the overall appeal tremendously, and would remove that mold feeling. Other issues: no pantry/storage space for guests to keep groceries; we put everything, including crackers and chips, in the refrigerator. Many kitchen cooking utensils were really nasty; replacing plastic cooking spoons, spatulas, etc., would not be expensive. There were dirty glasses in the cabinet and the flatware was less-than-clean looking. The shower grout and shower door tracks were dirty and mildewy. Both toilets had disgusting stains and mildew rings that appeared to be easily removable. Several lighting problems: nightlite in bath and stove light did not work, bulb in bedside lamp flickered (we replaced it), and the bedroom needs more lighting. Perhaps maintenance should check lights and cleanliness (especially toilets) right before guests arrive. The living room TV is way too small for viewing from the couch. The bath cabinets are in dire need of refinishing, as they also had a worn, dirty look that didn't go with the newer flooring. As for the property/grounds itself, the manager on duty when we checked in was very nice and helpful, but no one was available during posted hours when we wanted to check out the last day - we went down several times between 10 and 11 a.m. and could not find anyone and the office was locked. No one was back at the coffee station on the grounds, either.

Otherwise, fabulous visit already planning a return visit as soon as possible. Also, if someone loves sushi they must dine at "Sansei" absolutely the best I've ever had. We still talk about it.

We LOVE Kihei Surfside BUT... not all units are comparable!

Vancouver, BC, Canada [03/16/2010]

Over All	Management	Cleanliness	Location	Condition	Recommend

Comment: We have returned to Kihei Surfside 11 years in a row and would not consider staying anywhere else. Love the property, the people, the location, convenience and sunset HOWEVER... although all units basically have the same layout and furnishings, one should be aware the Units and comfort within is NOT all the same. The only two things that were of real concern and critical to one's stay is the QUALITY of the Bed/Pillows (critical to get a relaxing and restful sleep) and the QUALITY of kitchen utensils/cutlery for meal preparation and eating. This year I have to say the unit we rented was a big disappointment. We both returned to Vancouver with aching backs and stiff necks and did not get one restful night sleep. Now how disappointing is that when you are on holiday for two weeks! Nonetheless - we LOVE Kihei and will be back! MAHALO

Comment: The location of the Kihei Surfside is great. This was my first time in South Maui and it was close to everything while feeling uncrowded. Unit 513 was well maintained and comfortable. The few problems that we had during the stay were dealt with quickly and effeciently. Air conditioning would have been nice because a few days were hotter than normal. Overall, I would return to Unit 513 for another vacation.

pretty good, but needs some attention

Brentwood Bay, BC, Canada [11/23/2009]

Over All	Management	Cleanliness	Location	Condition	Recommend

Comment: This is the second time we've stayed in this building - it has an excellent location, view, access to beaches, etc. But, this particular unit has some issues that need addressing. There are no window coverings on any of the windows on the lanai side. That's okay during the daytime, but at night it feels like you're in a fishbowl. All the other units seemed to have window coverings on this side. The other major problem was the shower stall. It smelled very moldy as soon as the water was started and had visible mold on several areas of grout. In addition, the hand-held shower head was partially broken and not performing properly. Of less importance, the large frying pan was very worn. Much of the non-stick surface was gone and it needed replacing.

Comment: Kitchen pots/pans & small appliances (except toaster)could use updating. Light bulb in floor lamp by couch flickers & needs replacing. Obviously have done some updating to the unit which is nice. Might suggest painting insides of kitchen cabinets with a hard enamel paint to give them a fresher look in keeping with the refacing they've done. Just a thought. : )Enjoyed our stay...thanks for the hospitality.

Disappointed in Kitchen

Calgary, AB, Canada [11/13/2011]

Over All	Management	Cleanliness	Location	Condition	Recommend

Comment: The location of the property is fabulous - gorgeous lawn to sit on and read or just enjoy the view - and the turtles! The unit itself, was lacking in a couple of area. It was very short on kitchen supplies, ie mixing bowls, salad bowls, casseroles, cooking pans and utensils and storage containers and what they did have was very old. The inside of the cupboards were not that clean and needed painting(the outside of the cupboards had been updated). There were few cleaning supplies to maintain the unit on a daily basis. All in all the kitchen just felt a bit grungy and the dishwasher was the noisiest thing we had ever heard. Always made sure we turned it on when we were going out. The living room furniture was minimal and could definitely use a boost.

It smelled very moldy as soon as the water was started and had visible mold on several areas of grout. In addition, the hand-held shower head was partially broken and not performing properly. Of less importance, the large frying pan was very worn. Much of the non-stick surface was gone and it needed replacing.

Disappointed in Kitchen

Calgary, AB, Canada [11/13/2011]

Over All	Management	Cleanliness	Location	Condition	Recommend

Comment: The location of the property is fabulous - gorgeous lawn to sit on and read or just enjoy the view - and the turtles! The unit itself, was lacking in a couple of area. It was very short on kitchen supplies, ie mixing bowls, salad bowls, casseroles, cooking pans and utensils and storage containers and what they did have was very old. The inside of the cupboards were not that clean and needed painting(the outside of the cupboards had been updated). There were few cleaning supplies to maintain the unit on a daily basis. All in all the kitchen just felt a bit grungy and the dishwasher was the noisiest thing we had ever heard. Always made sure we turned it on when we were going out. The living room furniture was minimal and could definitely use a boost.

Comment: We enjoyed our stay, here, the only problem was the room had not been cleaned before our arrival. But the property manager looked after us the very next morning. The location was great with a fantastic view of the ocean and with the West Exposure, you could watch the sun set every night. We really enjoyed the location, you could walk to Kehei restaurants and shops or go South along miles of beaches and you are right on the water, so no roads to cross. Good secure parking. The only potential negative are the wild roosters crowing at 4-5am.from the green space area. Other than that it was fantastic!

North Vancouver, BC, United States [11/19/2008]

Over All	Management	Cleanliness	Location	Condition	Recommend

Comment: I only have a few comments about this condo which was very lovely. The first is that the bed was very uncomfortable. The mattress is so firm that I had to sleep on the living room couch. This was the first time in all my travels that I had a bed I was uncomfortable in. My husband managed to sleep on it but not very well. I would not re-rent this particular condo because of this unfortunately but would rent another one in this complex. Also it would have been helpful when the power went off if the crank flashlight also had a radio (we have this in our home). We had no idea of what was going on or when they thought it might be fixed. We also weren't sure about the evening "party" that occurred every evening as the manager never mentioned it to us so we were never sure if we should join them. We aren't they type to just "arrive". I would also suggest that the picture in the living room that has turned very blue be removed. There is such wonderful artwork hanging else where in the condo that it is distracting and would make the livingroom look so much nicer. Other than these little (and they are little) things I loved our stay here. It was so hard to come home. This complex is definitely where we will stay next time and have recommended it to everyone we have talked to. We have also recommended Hawaii Holiday Vacation Rentals to some of the people we met at the complex who had booked through the internet travel agencies. The girls in the office are wonderfully helpful and friendly!

We LOVE Kihei Surfside BUT... not all units are comparable!

Vancouver, BC, Canada [03/16/2010]

Over All	Management	Cleanliness	Location	Condition	Recommend

Comment: We have returned to Kihei Surfside 11 years in a row and would not consider staying anywhere else. Love the property, the people, the location, convenience and sunset HOWEVER... although all units basically have the same layout and furnishings, one should be aware the Units and comfort within is NOT all the same. The only two things that were of real concern and critical to one's stay is the QUALITY of the Bed/Pillows (critical to get a relaxing and restful sleep) and the QUALITY of kitchen utensils/cutlery for meal preparation and eating. This year I have to say the unit we rented was a big disappointment. We both returned to Vancouver with aching backs and stiff necks and did not get one restful night sleep. Now how disappointing is that when you are on holiday for two weeks! Nonetheless - we LOVE Kihei and will be back! MAHALO

513 Kihei Surfside

Kansas City, MO, United States [09/17/2010]

Over All	Management	Cleanliness	Location	Condition	Recommend

Comment: We've stayed at the Kihei Surfside several times over the years, always loving the seaside location and the nearness (next door!) of a great beach. We commend the availability of recycling onsite. The 513 unit we occupied this time had great updates: beautiful flooring, nice kitchen cabinets, counters and appliances. However, the updated appeal was rather ruined by the furnishings: worn, dated, uncomfortable, and somewhat dusty/moldy seeming wicker-type furniture in the living area and bedroom drug down the overall ambience to a less-than-appealing level. Replacing all the furniture would help the overall appeal tremendously, and would remove that mold feeling. Other issues: no pantry/storage space for guests to keep groceries; we put everything, including crackers and chips, in the refrigerator. Many kitchen cooking utensils were really nasty; replacing plastic cooking spoons, spatulas, etc., would not be expensive. There were dirty glasses in the cabinet and the flatware was less-than-clean looking. The shower grout and shower door tracks were dirty and mildewy. Both toilets had disgusting stains and mildew rings that appeared to be easily removable. Several lighting problems: nightlite in bath and stove light did not work, bulb in bedside lamp flickered (we replaced it), and the bedroom needs more lighting. Perhaps maintenance should check lights and cleanliness (especially toilets) right before guests arrive. The living room TV is way too small for viewing from the couch. The bath cabinets are in dire need of refinishing, as they also had a worn, dirty look that didn't go with the newer flooring. As for the property/grounds itself, the manager on duty when we checked in was very nice and helpful, but no one was available during posted hours when we wanted to check out the last day - we went down several times between 10 and 11 a.m. and could not find anyone and the office was locked. No one was back at the coffee station on the grounds, either.

Comment: This is the second time we've stayed in this building - it has an excellent location, view, access to beaches, etc. But, this particular unit has some issues that need addressing. There are no window coverings on any of the windows on the lanai side. That's okay during the daytime, but at night it feels like you're in a fishbowl. All the other units seemed to have window coverings on this side. The other major problem was the shower stall. It smelled very moldy as soon as the water was started and had visible mold on several areas of grout. In addition, the hand-held shower head was partially broken and not performing properly. Of less importance, the large frying pan was very worn. Much of the non-stick surface was gone and it needed replacing.

Calgary, AB, Canada [11/13/2011]

Over All	Management	Cleanliness	Location	Condition	Recommend

Comment: The location of the property is fabulous - gorgeous lawn to sit on and read or just enjoy the view - and the turtles! The unit itself, was lacking in a couple of area. It was very short on kitchen supplies, ie mixing bowls, salad bowls, casseroles, cooking pans and utensils and storage containers and what they did have was very old. The inside of the cupboards were not that clean and needed painting(the outside of the cupboards had been updated). There were few cleaning supplies to maintain the unit on a daily basis. All in all the kitchen just felt a bit grungy and the dishwasher was the noisiest thing we had ever heard. Always made sure we turned it on when we were going out. The living room furniture was minimal and could definitely use a boost.

Comment: This was our first time visiting Maui. We had a great time & this condo was very well located for any sort of activity. Close to all amenities & beaches. No air conditioning but that was no problem as the breeze from the trade winds cools the place nicely. The only problem we had was due to our inexperience. Our return flight left Maui at 11:00pm & our check out time was 11:00am the same day. We had no where to secure our luggage for the 12 hours on the last day in order to enjoy one last afternoon on the beach. We would have appreciated the heads up about this when we first booked. Otherwise,we would have booked the condo for one extra day.

513 Kihei Surfside

Kansas City, MO, United States [09/17/2010]

Over All	Management	Cleanliness	Location	Condition	Recommend

Comment: We've stayed at the Kihei Surfside several times over the years, always loving the seaside location and the nearness (next door!) of a great beach. We commend the availability of recycling onsite. The 513 unit we occupied this time had great updates: beautiful flooring, nice kitchen cabinets, counters and appliances. However, the updated appeal was rather ruined by the furnishings: worn, dated, uncomfortable, and somewhat dusty/moldy seeming wicker-type furniture in the living area and bedroom drug down the overall ambience to a less-than-appealing level. Replacing all the furniture would help the overall appeal tremendously, and would remove that mold feeling. Other issues: no pantry/storage space for guests to keep groceries; we put everything, including crackers and chips, in the refrigerator. Many kitchen cooking utensils were really nasty; replacing plastic cooking spoons, spatulas, etc., would not be expensive. There were dirty glasses in the cabinet and the flatware was less-than-clean looking. The shower grout and shower door tracks were dirty and mildewy. Both toilets had disgusting stains and mildew rings that appeared to be easily removable. Several lighting problems: nightlite in bath and stove light did not work, bulb in bedside lamp flickered (we replaced it), and the bedroom needs more lighting. Perhaps maintenance should check lights and cleanliness (especially toilets) right before guests arrive. The living room TV is way too small for viewing from the couch. The bath cabinets are in dire need of refinishing, as they also had a worn, dirty look that didn't go with the newer flooring. As for the property/grounds itself, the manager on duty when we checked in was very nice and helpful, but no one was available during posted hours when we wanted to check out the last day - we went down several times between 10 and 11 a.m. and could not find anyone and the office was locked.

Vancouver, BC, Canada [03/16/2010]

Over All	Management	Cleanliness	Location	Condition	Recommend

Comment: We have returned to Kihei Surfside 11 years in a row and would not consider staying anywhere else. Love the property, the people, the location, convenience and sunset HOWEVER... although all units basically have the same layout and furnishings, one should be aware the Units and comfort within is NOT all the same. The only two things that were of real concern and critical to one's stay is the QUALITY of the Bed/Pillows (critical to get a relaxing and restful sleep) and the QUALITY of kitchen utensils/cutlery for meal preparation and eating. This year I have to say the unit we rented was a big disappointment. We both returned to Vancouver with aching backs and stiff necks and did not get one restful night sleep. Now how disappointing is that when you are on holiday for two weeks! Nonetheless - we LOVE Kihei and will be back! MAHALO

Disappointed in Kitchen

Calgary, AB, Canada [11/13/2011]

Over All	Management	Cleanliness	Location	Condition	Recommend

Comment: The location of the property is fabulous - gorgeous lawn to sit on and read or just enjoy the view - and the turtles! The unit itself, was lacking in a couple of area. It was very short on kitchen supplies, ie mixing bowls, salad bowls, casseroles, cooking pans and utensils and storage containers and what they did have was very old. The inside of the cupboards were not that clean and needed painting(the outside of the cupboards had been updated). There were few cleaning supplies to maintain the unit on a daily basis. All in all the kitchen just felt a bit grungy and the dishwasher was the noisiest thing we had ever heard. Always made sure we turned it on when we were going out. The living room furniture was minimal and could definitely use a boost.

We LOVE Kihei Surfside BUT... not all units are comparable!

Vancouver, BC, Canada [03/16/2010]

Over All	Management	Cleanliness	Location	Condition	Recommend

Comment: We have returned to Kihei Surfside 11 years in a row and would not consider staying anywhere else. Love the property, the people, the location, convenience and sunset HOWEVER... although all units basically have the same layout and furnishings, one should be aware the Units and comfort within is NOT all the same. The only two things that were of real concern and critical to one's stay is the QUALITY of the Bed/Pillows (critical to get a relaxing and restful sleep) and the QUALITY of kitchen utensils/cutlery for meal preparation and eating. This year I have to say the unit we rented was a big disappointment. We both returned to Vancouver with aching backs and stiff necks and did not get one restful night sleep. Now how disappointing is that when you are on holiday for two weeks! Nonetheless - we LOVE Kihei and will be back! MAHALO

Comment: This was our first time visiting Maui. We had a great time & this condo was very well located for any sort of activity. Close to all amenities & beaches. No air conditioning but that was no problem as the breeze from the trade winds cools the place nicely. The only problem we had was due to our inexperience. Our return flight left Maui at 11:00pm & our check out time was 11:00am the same day. We had no where to secure our luggage for the 12 hours on the last day in order to enjoy one last afternoon on the beach. We would have appreciated the heads up about this when we first booked. Otherwise,we would have booked the condo for one extra day.

Brentwood Bay, BC, Canada [11/23/2009]

Over All	Management	Cleanliness	Location	Condition	Recommend

Comment: This is the second time we've stayed in this building - it has an excellent location, view, access to beaches, etc. But, this particular unit has some issues that need addressing. There are no window coverings on any of the windows on the lanai side. That's okay during the daytime, but at night it feels like you're in a fishbowl. All the other units seemed to have window coverings on this side. The other major problem was the shower stall. It smelled very moldy as soon as the water was started and had visible mold on several areas of grout. In addition, the hand-held shower head was partially broken and not performing properly. Of less importance, the large frying pan was very worn. Much of the non-stick surface was gone and it needed replacing.

513 Kihei Surfside

Kansas City, MO, United States [09/17/2010]

Over All	Management	Cleanliness	Location	Condition	Recommend

Comment: We've stayed at the Kihei Surfside several times over the years, always loving the seaside location and the nearness (next door!) of a great beach. We commend the availability of recycling onsite. The 513 unit we occupied this time had great updates: beautiful flooring, nice kitchen cabinets, counters and appliances. However, the updated appeal was rather ruined by the furnishings: worn, dated, uncomfortable, and somewhat dusty/moldy seeming wicker-type furniture in the living area and bedroom drug down the overall ambience to a less-than-appealing level. Replacing all the furniture would help the overall appeal tremendously, and would remove that mold feeling. Other issues: no pantry/storage space for guests to keep groceries; we put everything, including crackers and chips, in the refrigerator. Many kitchen cooking utensils were really nasty; replacing plastic cooking spoons, spatulas, etc., would not be expensive. There were dirty glasses in the cabinet and the flatware was less-than-clean looking. The shower grout and shower door tracks were dirty and mildewy. Both toilets had disgusting stains and mildew rings that appeared to be easily removable. Several lighting problems: nightlite in bath and stove light did not work, bulb in bedside lamp flickered (we replaced it), and the bedroom needs more lighting. Perhaps maintenance should check lights and cleanliness (especially toilets) right before guests arrive. The living room TV is way too small for viewing from the couch. The bath cabinets are in dire need of refinishing, as they also had a worn, dirty look that didn't go with the newer flooring. As for the property/grounds itself, the manager on duty when we checked in was very nice and helpful, but no one was available during posted hours when we wanted to check out the last day - we went down several times between 10 and 11 a.m. and could not find anyone and the office was locked. No one was back at the coffee station on the grounds, either.

Surfside is wonderful

North Vancouver, BC, United States [11/19/2008]

Over All	Management	Cleanliness	Location	Condition	Recommend

Comment: I only have a few comments about this condo which was very lovely. The first is that the bed was very uncomfortable. The mattress is so firm that I had to sleep on the living room couch. This was the first time in all my travels that I had a bed I was uncomfortable in. My husband managed to sleep on it but not very well. I would not re-rent this particular condo because of this unfortunately but would rent another one in this complex. Also it would have been helpful when the power went off if the crank flashlight also had a radio (we have this in our home). We had no idea of what was going on or when they thought it might be fixed. We also weren't sure about the evening "party" that occurred every evening as the manager never mentioned it to us so we were never sure if we should join them. We aren't they type to just "arrive". I would also suggest that the picture in the living room that has turned very blue be removed. There is such wonderful artwork hanging else where in the condo that it is distracting and would make the livingroom look so much nicer. Other than these little (and they are little) things I loved our stay here. It was so hard to come home. This complex is definitely where we will stay next time and have recommended it to everyone we have talked to. We have also recommended Hawaii Holiday Vacation Rentals to some of the people we met at the complex who had booked through the internet travel agencies. The girls in the office are wonderfully helpful and friendly!

Comment: This was our first time visiting Maui. We had a great time & this condo was very well located for any sort of activity. Close to all amenities & beaches. No air conditioning but that was no problem as the breeze from the trade winds cools the place nicely. The only problem we had was due to our inexperience. Our return flight left Maui at 11:00pm & our check out time was 11:00am the same day. We had no where to secure our luggage for the 12 hours on the last day in order to enjoy one last afternoon on the beach. We would have appreciated the heads up about this when we first booked. Otherwise,we would have booked the condo for one extra day.

pretty good, but needs some attention

Brentwood Bay, BC, Canada [11/23/2009]

Over All	Management	Cleanliness	Location	Condition	Recommend

Comment: This is the second time we've stayed in this building - it has an excellent location, view, access to beaches, etc. But, this particular unit has some issues that need addressing. There are no window coverings on any of the windows on the lanai side. That's okay during the daytime, but at night it feels like you're in a fishbowl. All the other units seemed to have window coverings on this side. The other major problem was the shower stall. It smelled very moldy as soon as the water was started and had visible mold on several areas of grout. In addition, the hand-held shower head was partially broken and not performing properly. Of less importance, the large frying pan was very worn. Much of the non-stick surface was gone and it needed replacing.

Obviously have done some updating to the unit which is nice. Might suggest painting insides of kitchen cabinets with a hard enamel paint to give them a fresher look in keeping with the refacing they've done. Just a thought. : )Enjoyed our stay...thanks for the hospitality.

Over All	Management	Cleanliness	Location	Condition	Recommend

Comment: The location of the property is fabulous - gorgeous lawn to sit on and read or just enjoy the view - and the turtles! The unit itself, was lacking in a couple of area. It was very short on kitchen supplies, ie mixing bowls, salad bowls, casseroles, cooking pans and utensils and storage containers and what they did have was very old. The inside of the cupboards were not that clean and needed painting(the outside of the cupboards had been updated). There were few cleaning supplies to maintain the unit on a daily basis. All in all the kitchen just felt a bit grungy and the dishwasher was the noisiest thing we had ever heard. Always made sure we turned it on when we were going out. The living room furniture was minimal and could definitely use a boost.

Comment: We enjoyed our stay, here, the only problem was the room had not been cleaned before our arrival. But the property manager looked after us the very next morning. The location was great with a fantastic view of the ocean and with the West Exposure, you could watch the sun set every night. We really enjoyed the location, you could walk to Kehei restaurants and shops or go South along miles of beaches and you are right on the water, so no roads to cross. Good secure parking. The only potential negative are the wild roosters crowing at 4-5am.from the green space area. Other than that it was fantastic!

513 Kihei Surfside

Kansas City, MO, United States [09/17/2010]

Over All	Management	Cleanliness	Location	Condition	Recommend

Comment: We've stayed at the Kihei Surfside several times over the years, always loving the seaside location and the nearness (next door!) of a great beach. We commend the availability of recycling onsite. The 513 unit we occupied this time had great updates: beautiful flooring, nice kitchen cabinets, counters and appliances. However, the updated appeal was rather ruined by the furnishings: worn, dated, uncomfortable, and somewhat dusty/moldy seeming wicker-type furniture in the living area and bedroom drug down the overall ambience to a less-than-appealing level. Replacing all the furniture would help the overall appeal tremendously, and would remove that mold feeling. Other issues: no pantry/storage space for guests to keep groceries; we put everything, including crackers and chips, in the refrigerator. Many kitchen cooking utensils were really nasty; replacing plastic cooking spoons, spatulas, etc., would not be expensive. There were dirty glasses in the cabinet and the flatware was less-than-clean looking. The shower grout and shower door tracks were dirty and mildewy. Both toilets had disgusting stains and mildew rings that appeared to be easily removable. Several lighting problems: nightlite in bath and stove light did not work, bulb in bedside lamp flickered (we replaced it), and the bedroom needs more lighting. Perhaps maintenance should check lights and cleanliness (especially toilets) right before guests arrive. The living room TV is way too small for viewing from the couch. The bath cabinets are in dire need of refinishing, as they also had a worn, dirty look that didn't go with the newer flooring. As for the property/grounds itself, the manager on duty when we checked in was very nice and helpful, but no one was available during posted hours when we wanted to check out the last day - we went down several times between 10 and 11 a.m. and could not find anyone and the office was locked. No one was back at the coffee station on the grounds, either.

Surfside is wonderful

North Vancouver, BC, United States [11/19/2008]

Over All	Management	Cleanliness	Location	Condition	Recommend

Comment: I only have a few comments about this condo which was very lovely. The first is that the bed was very uncomfortable. The mattress is so firm that I had to sleep on the living room couch. This was the first time in all my travels that I had a bed I was uncomfortable in. My husband managed to sleep on it but not very well. I would not re-rent this particular condo because of this unfortunately but would rent another one in this complex. Also it would have been helpful when the power went off if the crank flashlight also had a radio (we have this in our home). We had no idea of what was going on or when they thought it might be fixed. We also weren't sure about the evening "party" that occurred every evening as the manager never mentioned it to us so we were never sure if we should join them. We aren't they type to just "arrive". I would also suggest that the picture in the living room that has turned very blue be removed. There is such wonderful artwork hanging else where in the condo that it is distracting and would make the livingroom look so much nicer. Other than these little (and they are little) things I loved our stay here. It was so hard to come home. This complex is definitely where we will stay next time and have recommended it to everyone we have talked to. We have also recommended Hawaii Holiday Vacation Rentals to some of the people we met at the complex who had booked through the internet travel agencies. The girls in the office are wonderfully helpful and friendly!

We LOVE Kihei Surfside BUT... not all units are comparable!

Vancouver, BC, Canada [03/16/2010]

Over All	Management	Cleanliness	Location	Condition	Recommend

Comment: We have returned to Kihei Surfside 11 years in a row and would not consider staying anywhere else. Love the property, the people, the location, convenience and sunset HOWEVER... although all units basically have the same layout and furnishings, one should be aware the Units and comfort within is NOT all the same. The only two things that were of real concern and critical to one's stay is the QUALITY of the Bed/Pillows (critical to get a relaxing and restful sleep) and the QUALITY of kitchen utensils/cutlery for meal preparation and eating. This year I have to say the unit we rented was a big disappointment. We both returned to Vancouver with aching backs and stiff necks and did not get one restful night sleep. Now how disappointing is that when you are on holiday for two weeks! Nonetheless - we LOVE Kihei and will be back! MAHALO

Comment: We have returned to Kihei Surfside 11 years in a row and would not consider staying anywhere else. Love the property, the people, the location, convenience and sunset HOWEVER... although all units basically have the same layout and furnishings, one should be aware the Units and comfort within is NOT all the same. The only two things that were of real concern and critical to one's stay is the QUALITY of the Bed/Pillows (critical to get a relaxing and restful sleep) and the QUALITY of kitchen utensils/cutlery for meal preparation and eating. This year I have to say the unit we rented was a big disappointment. We both returned to Vancouver with aching backs and stiff necks and did not get one restful night sleep. Now how disappointing is that when you are on holiday for two weeks! Nonetheless - we LOVE Kihei and will be back! MAHALO

Comment: This unit was clean, neat, with some beach accessories avaialbe (chairs, cooler, mats) that made this extra nice. The location is superb, close to the sout Maui snorkeling spots and adjacent to several wonderful, expansive beaches. It was a nice, quiet complex. And, the folks at Hawaii Holiday Vacation rentals are extraordinarily helpful!

A couple of housekeeping suggestions: the faucet in the full bath has a continual drip, a new coffee maker is needed, the mattress pad on the pull-out couch is dirty. Another comfortable chair in the living area would be good, not much seating if more than 2 people. Grounds were beautiful, the staff was extremely helpful.

Comment: This was our first time visiting Maui. We had a great time & this condo was very well located for any sort of activity. Close to all amenities & beaches. No air conditioning but that was no problem as the breeze from the trade winds cools the place nicely. The only problem we had was due to our inexperience. Our return flight left Maui at 11:00pm & our check out time was 11:00am the same day. We had no where to secure our luggage for the 12 hours on the last day in order to enjoy one last afternoon on the beach. We would have appreciated the heads up about this when we first booked. Otherwise,we would have booked the condo for one extra day.

Over All	Management	Cleanliness	Location	Condition	Recommend

Comment: This is the second time we've stayed in this building - it has an excellent location, view, access to beaches, etc. But, this particular unit has some issues that need addressing. There are no window coverings on any of the windows on the lanai side. That's okay during the daytime, but at night it feels like you're in a fishbowl. All the other units seemed to have window coverings on this side. The other major problem was the shower stall. It smelled very moldy as soon as the water was started and had visible mold on several areas of grout. In addition, the hand-held shower head was partially broken and not performing properly. Of less importance, the large frying pan was very worn. Much of the non-stick surface was gone and it needed replacing.

Calgary, AB, Canada [11/13/2011]

Over All	Management	Cleanliness	Location	Condition	Recommend

Comment: The location of the property is fabulous - gorgeous lawn to sit on and read or just enjoy the view - and the turtles! The unit itself, was lacking in a couple of area. It was very short on kitchen supplies, ie mixing bowls, salad bowls, casseroles, cooking pans and utensils and storage containers and what they did have was very old. The inside of the cupboards were not that clean and needed painting(the outside of the cupboards had been updated). There were few cleaning supplies to maintain the unit on a daily basis. All in all the kitchen just felt a bit grungy and the dishwasher was the noisiest thing we had ever heard. Always made sure we turned it on when we were going out. The living room furniture was minimal and could definitely use a boost.

Comment: We enjoyed our stay, here, the only problem was the room had not been cleaned before our arrival. But the property manager looked after us the very next morning. The location was great with a fantastic view of the ocean and with the West Exposure, you could watch the sun set every night. We really enjoyed the location, you could walk to Kehei restaurants and shops or go South along miles of beaches and you are right on the water, so no roads to cross. Good secure parking. The only potential negative are the wild roosters crowing at 4-5am.from the green space area. Other than that it was fantastic!

513 Kihei Surfside

Kansas City, MO, United States [09/17/2010]

Over All	Management	Cleanliness	Location	Condition	Recommend

Comment: We've stayed at the Kihei Surfside several times over the years, always loving the seaside location and the nearness (next door!) of a great beach. We commend the availability of recycling onsite. The 513 unit we occupied this time had great updates: beautiful flooring, nice kitchen cabinets, counters and appliances. However, the updated appeal was rather ruined by the furnishings: worn, dated, uncomfortable, and somewhat dusty/moldy seeming wicker-type furniture in the living area and bedroom drug down the overall ambience to a less-than-appealing level. Replacing all the furniture would help the overall appeal tremendously, and would remove that mold feeling. Other issues: no pantry/storage space for guests to keep groceries; we put everything, including crackers and chips, in the refrigerator. Many kitchen cooking utensils were really nasty; replacing plastic cooking spoons, spatulas, etc., would not be expensive. There were dirty glasses in the cabinet and the flatware was less-than-clean looking. The shower grout and shower door tracks were dirty and mildewy. Both toilets had disgusting stains and mildew rings that appeared to be easily removable. Several lighting problems: nightlite in bath and stove light did not work, bulb in bedside lamp flickered (we replaced it), and the bedroom needs more lighting. Perhaps maintenance should check lights and cleanliness (especially toilets) right before guests arrive. The living room TV is way too small for viewing from the couch. The bath cabinets are in dire need of refinishing, as they also had a worn, dirty look that didn't go with the newer flooring. As for the property/grounds itself, the manager on duty when we checked in was very nice and helpful, but no one was available during posted hours when we wanted to check out the last day - we went down several times between 10 and 11 a.m. and could not find anyone and the office was locked. No one was back at the coffee station on the grounds, either.
