"Our stay was amazing! You guys thought of everything, and our visit couldn't have been more comfortable. The suites are beautiful, the location is perfect, and it doesn't have that "big resort" feel which was perfect for us. Having access to beach gear and sports equipment made it that much better. Thank you so much!"

One Happy Family!

"Just spent an amazing week in the Ohana Suite. I need to start by saying that the suite itself, the property, and the hospitality were outstanding! The location was remarkable just a few steps across the beautifully maintained lawn to the beach and only a slightly longer walk to stores and restaurants!


The things we all want to know first:

The Ohana Suite is spacious, larger than it looks in the pictures, well furnished, and very clean. The kitchen was well set up and stocked with all the necessities and then some. The living room was comfortable and felt like home right away. The covered patio almost doubles the comfortable living space and is a lovely place to spend the morning with a cup of coffee listening to the birds. The bathrooms were spacious and well stocked with towels, robes, and toiletries. There were no unexpected surprises, everything (appliances, lights, A/C, etc.) was in great working order. The owner’s while living onsite are friendly and welcoming and totally unobtrusive. Throughout our stay we rarely crossed paths and when we did it was hard to distinguish them from any other of the few guests vacationing.


Now for the extras:

The Aloha Aku is a phenomenal place to stay. The owner’s have truly gone above and beyond to make vacationing here feel like showing up at your own beach house ready to relax. They have provided so many little well thought out details like big beach towels, coolers tucked into the closets, outdoor towel racks for hanging wet swim clothes and towels to dry, and flashlights available for nighttime exploring. That’s before we even step out of our own unit to the beautifully landscaped property, every inch of this property is beautifully cultivated, maintained and is gorgeous. The long tree lined driveway and the lagoon makes the space feel very secluded despite it being super close to grocery stores, restaurants and other conveniences in the S. Kihei area. The property amenities were also outstanding, which feels like an understatement. The common area has a great book collection, some very nice gym equipment along with portable exercise stuff and an office set up with computer access and a printer available, but wait there’s more! There are plenty of beach bags, umbrellas, coolers, beach chairs and snorkel gear stocked, and let’s talk about the sports locker area. There are numerous paddle boards, kayaks, body boards, all in great condition with life jackets and paddles easily stored for guest access. There are a variety of water toys and fun floaties and a small fleet of very nice cruiser style bicycles. We literally couldn’t have wanted anything that the owner’s hadn’t already thought of and made available. The water toys and bikes really added both value and awesome fun to our trip!


The wildlife was unbelievable. We saw numerous sea turtles in the calm waters off of the beach and sleeping on the beaches at night, lots of shiny schools of small fish in the shallow waters, and WHALES. Our wintertime visit coincided with thousands of humpback whales who migrate to this area. The whale activity we saw from the beach alone was mind blowing, and even more unbelievable from a kayak. (cheers to the owners for that wonderful sports locker again) The birds and waterfowl throughout the property were also a real treat, there is nothing like waking up to the sound of the sea and so many bird calls.

Overall the hospitality, attention to details, beautiful landscape, "through the roof" amenities and super convenient location make the Aloha Aku one of our favorite places we have ever vacationed. We will absolutely be back to enjoy that slice of paradise again. Well done Gary & Charlene your place is a dream, thank you so much for sharing it."

Aloha KAI


“I was *extremely* pleased with this property during a recent 3-day stay in June for my honeymoon. The location is excellent - close to groceries and stores in town. All units have a balcony/patio that looks out onto a well-manicured lawn area with a swimming pool, and opens to a lovely beach for swimming. The property provides paddleboards, life jackets, and kayaks to use. The condo unit itself was clean, nicely decorated, and very well-appointed with all the kitchen items you might want and other water sports gear like snorkeling equipment, water shoes, etc. This would be a great place for a 1 week+ long stay and I look forward to staying here again.”
