This third floor oceanfront condo at the Kihei Surfside Resort is located on quieter side the building and has a lovely ocean view from the kitchen, living room, dining area and lanai. It is one of the larger, 1 bedroom, 1.5 bath units (680 sq ft). With the exception of the bedroom, the unit is tiled throughout. It has been tastefully remodeled to a very high nice standard. The unit has maple cabinetry and gorgeous black granite countertops which are consistent throughout the unit.

The beautiful kitchen is well equipped with stylish black and stainless steel appliances, including a large refrigerator with ice maker, flat top stove with microwave hood fan above, full size dishwasher and garbage disposer.

The living room has a queen size sofa-bed and a comfy swivel rocker rattan basket chair. There is a large flat screen LCD color TV, DVD player, stereo and multi speed ceiling fan.

The dining area has a round rattan glass table with 4 matching chairs.

The large lanai has a bistro table with two padded bistro chairs - a perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee or a romantic oceanfront dinner!

The entry hall is very spacious, with a large built in maple/granite buffet, and a functional desk area with a ergonomic leather office chair and second desk area.

The bedroom has a King size bed, multi speed ceiling fan and Hawaiian style rattan furniture.

The master bathroom has a full size, walk in shower with bench and large grab handle, with the same gorgeous cabinetry and countertops earlier described. The half bath is equally as tastefully decorated.

This condo is fully equipped with fresh linens and towels, hair dryer, iron/ironing board. All units have beach towels and a cooler. Umbrellas and snorkel gear are not supplied, but are often left behind in the units by other guests – no guarantees. The Kihei Surfside office loans out beach chairs free of charge during regular business hours - Monday to Saturday. Office is closed Sundays and Holidays.

The unit has free, wireless high speed internet and free long distance calling to the United States and Canada. It is also equipped with a state of the art Oracode door lock, whereby each guest is issued a unique code which controls the door only during their stay. No keys!

This unit is an excellent choice for guests who are looking for a spacious, private, comfortable, condo in a quieter part of the property with a great ocean view.

It is customary for the residents of the Kihei Surfside to gather each evening for cocktails on the shore near the tiki torches for a traditional Hawaiian sundown ceremony. This is a great opportunity to meet your neighbors and fellow vacationers!

Kihei Surfside Resort is located at 2936 S. Kihei Road, South Kihei at the entrance of beautiful Wailea. This is the desert part of Maui, where the sun shines more than any other part of the island. The Kihei Surfside Resort consists of an absolute oceanfront concrete building of 6 floors and 84 deluxe units with an elevator. There are two very nice oceanfront restaurants within 100 yards of the resort. The Grand Wailea Hotel, The Shops at Wailea and Wailea/Makena Golf Courses are close by and Kahalui airport is just twenty-five minutes away.

Rental cars are available at the airport or in Kihei town. There is free parking on site. Just a few minutes from the airport are Costco, Wal-Mart and Sears. A short drive from the resort is Safeway, Foodland and Star Market, where you can stock up on groceries. Right across the parking lot from the Surfside is an upscale deli/grocery store for last minute items, and a yoga studio.

The world class golf facilities of Wailea and Makena are nearby. Windsurfing, and many other water activities are also available nearby. Some of the best snorkeling on Maui is steps from the property. The Pacific Foundation conducts their annual whale count from the Surfside property. The Kihei boat ramp, from where the pleasure boats and sightseeing/snorkeling tours depart, is a five minute walk.

Kihei town itself is only a few minutes away by car and boasts many fine restaurants, video and gift shops. Historical Lahaina and beautiful Kaanapali beach are a scenic 25 minute drive towards the western part of Maui.

Rates for one bedroom units are for up to 2 people. 3rd and 4th persons in the unit are $25/nt for adults and $15/nt for persons under 18. Maximum 4 people.

Great location and close to the beach.
We enjoyed our time at the condo. It was a perfect location for walking into the town or local beaches. The pool and site was great with access to chairs etc. the unit is a bit older and does not look exactly like the photos. The small appliances were older - toaster worked but was missing the handle and just had felt to push down and the coffee machine was very rusted - but didn’t impact our stay overall. Even without A/C the condo was cool if there was a breeze off the ocean and the fans did help. We enjoyed our stay and would stay at the condo building again.

Would highly recommend as a base for Maui. Yes, there are chickens that call through the night. But if you close the lanai doors and the bedroom doors, no sound gets to the bedroom.

Lovely view condo
What a beautiful view to wake up to everyday. It was quiet at night and in the morning I could hear the sweet sound of birds at the bird feeder across the lawn. I didn’t hear chickens but saw some around. It was a little warm for sleeping one night but all the rest had wonderful trade winds to keep us cool.

Honeymoon Stay
We have nothing but great things to say about our stay at Kihei Surfside. Staff was great and attentive, unit was clean and had all the necessities, views were spectacular! The beach is a 3 min walk to the next hotel over which has a general store for snacks and beach items. Most important about this place is the location!! Anything you want or need is 10 mins or less drive. Could not ask for a better location that is both central and has stunning ocean front views!

Perfect Location
You can't beat this location. We met visitors from all over at the BBQ every night. Most were with their families for the holidays. The management in the office was friendly and helpful. We were even visited by whales one afternoon and was able to watch from the balcony. This will become come an annual tradition.

So comfortable!
This condo was in a great location and had everything we needed. The view was everything! The condo had a great layout (we appreciated the extra bathroom) and was well stocked with everything we needed. The dining room had such a great ocean view that we chose to eat in most nights. The grounds of Kihei Surfside were so beautiful to walk around and explore or relax on a bench. We would definitely stay here again!

Not “recently renovated” as it says in the description, but it was fine. Could really do without being woken at 5am each day by the cockerels but the ocean views are amazing. You can just sit on the balcony and watch whales in the bay.

Perfect First Family Trip to Hawaii
my husband and I had been to Hawaii before but this was our kids first trip - and long awaited as we had to cancel a previous trip in March of 2020. Kihei Surfside was a perfect place to stay - I just recommended it to my mother! Gorgeous ocean views, a fabulous beach just steps away, perfectly situated between the activities in Kihei and beautiful walks in Wailea, great options for other beaches to explore to the south, beachfront yoga and a restaurant next door. Our unit was nicely updated and the kitchen had what we needed for some easy meals. We enjoyed long morning walks, snorkling at the reef just off the shore, seeing turtles, sitting on the longue chairs, kids loved the pool, and the community that meets every night for sunset. Would absolutely stay again!

About the host

Hosted by Larry Rosenberg

Host profile image

Why they chose this property

We are convinced this property offers the best value and location for oceanfront accommodation in the south Kihei/Wailea area. All of the units are direct oceanfront, and the property has the most amazing oceanfront lawn area spanning over 2 acres, which is unique to our property. The best part about the Surfside are the friendly, happy people, and the great accommodating staff!

What makes this property unique

The property is located right at the north end of world famous Keawakapu Beach. It is one of the finest white sand beaches anywhere. It stretches for miles past some of the most expensive homes and hotels in all of Maui. Great for walking or running. There is a reef right at our property that has the most amazing snorkeling we have seen anywhere. Unlike most other oceanfront properties in Kihei, the Surfside is perched right on the sea shore, set back several hundred feet from S. Kihei Road, so you hear the ocean, not the road noise. The complex has two high end stainless steel barbeques and picnic tables right at the ocean. Almost every night, we use the barbeque and eat our dinner at the oceanfront lit by tiki torches.
