Amazing Ocean View, In Kihei, Top Floor, AC, Across St from beach

Aloha! We are the owners of a gorgeous, remodeled penthouse, 1 bd 1 ba (sleeps 3) condo with amazing ocean views inside and out. I to 2 minute walk from beach. It is decorated with a feel of the island throughout. New sound resistant glass balcony doors, windows and ductless split AC makes this a quiet retreat filled with light and extraordinary views.

**PLEASE NOTE: You may have heard about Maui banning some vacation rentals. The County Council is set to vote to ban 7,000 units (out of the 14,000 total units) from renting to tourists starting in 2026. Those units were originally zoned "Apartment" and had been grandfathered into tourist rentals. That grandfathering is being removed. The complete list of units which will be barred from renting to tourists is readily available if you do an internet search on "Mintoya List."
Our unit has never been on that list and has always been zoned Hotel/Business. If you reserve from us, rest assured you are in a legal, licensed unit in the appropriate zoning class.

As beautiful as this condo was when we purchased it, we continue to make yearly updates:
Shades that keep the sun out, but let the view in.
Front screen door to enjoy those tropical breezes.
New memory foam mattress. (That many quests ask for the brand as they sleep so good.)
Full size washer and dryer.

Our unit is supplied with all of the supplies to make your vacation as fun and relaxing as possible. Just unpack and let the vacation begin!

The 1st floor of the complex has shops where you can rent bikes, grab a coffee or sandwich, arrange a massage, haircut or pedicure/manicure, pick up some essentials in a small market and plan diving or snorkeling adventures. Maui Dream Dive is a top rated dive shop that can help with any snorkel or dive gear needs. There is also a gym about 7 minutes up the road - convenient drop in rates for travelers. Or just lounge at the on site pool.

Easy to learn to surf here! It doesn't get any more convenient. Rent surfboards and paddleboard gear from the surf store across the street. You are across the street from "The Cove" the best beginner surf spot on the island. Watch your friends and family surf from the lanai while enjoying your morning coffee!
During whale season, the whales will be easy to spot from this top sixth floor "lookout", binoculars provided!

The Island Surf building, in particular, is easy living. A SHORT WALK puts you at the Kihei marketplace and many great restaurants. A GROCERY STORE (Foodland) is an easy stroll. STARBUCKS is another local hangout to enjoy the morning or meet with friends. If you like to watch or participate in roller hockey, tennis games, pickup beach volleyball, basketball, surfing, stand up paddleboarding and be right by the beach we think you have the best location in all of Maui. Kalama Beach Park (across the street) is the place to enjoy these sports or watch the action. We have enjoyed concerts from the lanai. Many local shops are within walking distance for those souvenirs the shoppers love to find. South Maui Gardens-Hidden Food Oasis of Kihei is located directly behind our Complex. Stroll the luscious shaded grounds, enjoy live entertainment, butterfly garden and delicious food. Several eateries and food trucks to enjoy.

A few minutes away is Wailea, with upscale dining, shopping, golfing and miles of beautiful beach.

Great place to stay

We were very impressed with this property! It was clean, roomy, and we had a beautiful view from our front windows. The only disadvantage was the traffic noise from the road below, which meant we had to close the windows sometimes. The air conditioning and shades were very helpful!

Amazing location, excellent accommodations, outstanding view.

Island Surf is amazing. The location in Kihei (Kihei is the perfect balance of local and tourist...highly recommended!) can't be beat and is walking distance to great food, shops, and beaches. The owner are incredibly thoughtful in providing everything you could need, including beach items, great kitchen set up, great communication and so much more. The park across the street is full of activities and perfect for people watching. Best part- you literally get the best seat on the island for sunsets.

Great view, very clean and up to date

The property has been recently updated and is in extremely good shape. Everything has been decorated nicely and all the amenities are there. As the description says, there is a road in between the apartment block and the beach. The view is perfect, but the road is noticeable during the day. It is just something to know if you are expecting to hear the lapping of the waves from the balcony then this is best done during the night.

Great Condo and Location!

Me and my partner really enjoyed our stay at this property. This was a great alternative to staying at a hotel/resort. The condo featured great amenities which made it very easy to cook, clean, and enjoy our time. They provided us with all the necessary cooking supplies (pots, pans, coffee maker, etc.) The host also had many staple ingredients that complimented any shopping that we did (spices, cooking oil, condiments, etc).Additionally, the apartment was located in the heart of Kihei. It was across the street from a public beach and park. Close to some great restaurants and shopping options. All around would book again!

AMAZING VIEWS, HAD EVERYTHING WE NEEDED

Doug and Pam, thank you so much for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home. We enjoyed Maui to its fullest, but your overall hosting skills helped make our stay even better. Accommodating answers to our questions quickly, having recommendations, detailing check in-check out procedures, everything was easy! The items you have in the condo for use really made it easy to snorkel, go to the beach, and pack up for a day of adventure. We will be back to Maui and would love to stay at this location again. Mahalo! Thank you!

Beautiful!

We loved our stay in Pam's condo. We enjoyed our coffee on the lanai every morning while watching the surfers and paddle boarders in the ocean. Pam stocked the condo with everything, from beach chairs and snorkel gear (which we used every day!), to a fully equipped kitchen. The condo was nicely furnished, clean, and cozy. We felt very much at home. We look forward to staying here again when we return to Maui in the future! Mahalo, Pam!

Exceptional condo, great value

All of the other glowing reviews are true. Doug and Pam have a beautiful, well-located condo and provide everything a traveler might need to have a restful, fun trip in Maui. The space is tastefully decorated, clean and has many thoughtful touches. We appreciated the washer/dryer and air conditioner that was very quiet and works quickly to cool the space, just as promised. Pam's good communication made accessing the condo stress free. We would definitely stay here again and recommend it to others.

Excellent Place To Stay

Sitting on the lanai sipping coffee and enjoying the ocean. What a way to wake up in the morning! The condo was very well stocked (better than our home), Pam and Doug have thought of everything. Just add your food. Very clean and ready for you to enjoy your stay…we sure did. Pam informed us about the South Maui Gardens behind the building, lots of food trucks and fun. Centrally located so you can walk to the beach, restaurants & shopping. Pam quickly communicated with us when we had questions. She also checked in on us to make sure our stay was going well. If you are in Kihei and this place is available, get it. You will love it! Thanks again to Pam and Doug for accepting our reservations. Mahalo

Wow! Just finished 3 weeks in Doug and Pam's beautiful condo, an absolute gem!! We have stayed in many many vacation properties over the years, this one is by far the best. You cant find a better location in Kihei. Easy walk to entertainment and food, short drive to excellent beaches, and now 5 star + accommodation. Doug and Pam have thought about everything a vacationing couple would need, literally everything. Pam even sent a note asking if we were OK during a "Severe Weather Warning, with Flash Floods". Already booked for next year. Thank you Doug and Pam for allowing us to enjoy your condo Derrick and Sharon, Alberta, Canada

Best view of Kihei

We really enjoyed our stay. Unfortunately, the washer/dryer and AC burnt out. However, Pam and Doug did an awesome job making sure we got a temporary AC unit and refunded a portion for us. I can 100% say that the place is an absolute gem and I love spending my time on the balcony to watch the sunsets and sunrises. Also, the little books they keep on the table are really helpful. I read one of them all the way through and it was so informational about the history of hawaii which was really enjoyable. The condo was clean, the staff that I did meet were so sweet and easy to talk to. We loooooved the kitchen and now I've got a new dream kitchen to work towards. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the snorkle stuff were so fun to use on the beach. The condo is beyond quiet. Something I think you will never find in a hotel. I loved my stay here and would definitely stay again!
