"Tough timing to arrive right after the bad storm. This area was hit hard and we can imagine the work it took to get all back together. Staff shortage affected housekeeping but the front desk was helpful and cheerful in providing fresh towels and other needed items. No internet service but we were compensated fairly. Good A/C in our room and comfortable bed. We appreciated the complimentary use of beach chairs, umbrella and cooler. Easy to drive out of the rain on Maui!! Would enjoy visiting again when Kohea Kai is bright and shiny!"

"This hotel is a great new resort to enjoy on the beautiful island of Maui. The rooms are quiet and the beds are comfortable. The pool is very relaxing and the bartenders are great! The Beach Club across the street is a great place to eat after a full day in the sun."

"The bad (and most important): Guests need to be warned about the insane woman who lives in this building. There should be a disclaimer on all booking sites and the resorts website . It is INSANE what goes on here . When I read reviews about her, I thought maybe she was just having a bad day or week. I was wrong. This goes on all day every day and has been happening for years. She screams at and harasses guest over a loud speaker , insults people , records everyone , particularly children. Plays piano , blows a whistle , conch sings , mocks guests , all over the speaker from 7am-10pm. she has a huge dog that barks all day and she walks around to intimidate people at the pool. Look at her you tube channel Aloha See Maui before considering staying here . While the hotel management hands are somewhat tied , they need to do more . It’s been going on for years, this isn’t new. When she’s not making noise and harassing people, which wasn’t often , it’s all the guests talk about . The negativity and noise consumed our vacation. There was no peace , no way to sleep in or relax , or chill at the pool , when we paid big money to visit here . Our sofa bed was broken , which my son slept on all week , and the bedroom mattress was like sleeping on springs . The good : the view is spectacular, location is great , pool , hot tub and BBQ area was awesome . I would come back but only if this crazy lady was gone . "

"Staying at this ocean cottage was wonderful. The cottage owners are warm and caring and take pride in creating a comfortable, thoughtful, and memorable experience. The cottage itself is beautifully maintained—cozy, clean, and perfectly situated just steps from the beach. Waking up in the morning and going to sleep at night to the sound of the ocean waves was restorative. What truly set this place apart were the little extras that made beach days effortless and enjoyable. The provided beach chairs, lush beach towels and beach umbrella were all in excellent condition and made lounging by the water incredibly relaxing. This is more than just a place to stay—it’s an experience filled with care, hospitality, and thoughtful amenities. We can’t wait to return! "

"The condo was in a great area. The check in was easy. The unit was clean and comfortable. Through no fault of the owners we were out of power for two days but the breeze helped. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again. Very good bang for your buck."

"The unit was clean, quiet and comfortable. We enjoyed visiting with Edward the ground keeper. A very pleasant and hard working man I would suggest stocking basic spices in the kitchen and signage for building D needs to be marked on the back side visible from the parking lot"
