We enjoyed 2 very happy, peaceful weeks staying in a studio apartment at the Punahoa. The apartment was equipped with everything we needed. We were very comfortable, the apartment was spotlessly clean and well-maintained. The apartment had a 2-ring burner cooktop and a microwave-convection oven. The communal bbq on the main floor was nearly always available and kept very clean,... More

I hesitate to even write this review for fear of this complex becoming even more popular than it already is. This is my husband and my 3rd year staying at Punahoa. There are about 14 condos in the building, which is right on the ocean. It is located on a short side road, eliminating the noise from South Kihei Rd.... More

We found this place via VRBO and got an amazing deal! We were in town for a wedding s needed to be in Kihei and this place did not disappoint! Penthouse with air conditioning, massive terrace, lovely views, granite in the kitchen... A great week in paradise that was close to everything. Parking can be a bit tight, but never... More

Loved our unit top floor 403, huge balcony, beautiful sunsets and great views. Apartment was well presented, had everything we needed, stayed 2 weeks. Loved being able to get up and walk straight out into the water and snorkel with the turtles and beautiful fish. We would be back for sure.

Very nice place. Our unit (#201 I think) was full of useful things (cooler, ice packs, beach chairs, beach towels, condiment, etc). There is a very nice common area patio with a beautiful view where we ended-up dining every night with the sunset in front of us. We had originally planned to go to restaurants more often but with such... More

Kihei is a good central location and has nice beaches. The Punahoa is on a quiet street and the property is well maintained. There is a very nice common area patio with a beautiful view and the beach just outside your door is really pretty. Wear swim shoes and watch for rocks. The condo we stayed in was 201 and... More

I am conflicted about writing this review: part of me wants to keep this place my own little secret, but I also want to commend the owners and the staff on the property and overall great service. I began researching VRBOs months ago. Having stayed at one of the large hotels a couple of years before, I wanted to have... More

The reviews are right. We spent a week in #302 and were very pleased with the location, the view, the way it was supplied, the comfort and the cleanliness. My wife preferred the sleep sofa so she could hear the ocean all night. We both marveled at the view of the moon glistening on the ocean amid the rocks and... More

We arrived after dark, and when we awoke next morning there was this amazing view, with the ocean right down below. Although Kihei is densely populated, it did not feel like it once inside the apartment. The building is not new, and there are many other more upmarket places around, but this place has LOCATION and is affordable.
