COMPLETELY REMODELED Sugar Beach Oceanfront Penthouse Sunset & Ocean View

PH24 is a beautifully remodeled Penthouse Beachfront Unit at Sugar Beach Resort set along the 5-mile long crescent shaped shores of Sugar Beach in North Kihei. Our beachfront Maui condo unit immerses you in updated luxury and the spirit of the islands. PH24 looks out on the golden sands of Sugar Beach on Maui’s south coast – the sunniest and driest part of the island – and the endless ocean horizon beyond.

PH24 is a direct beachfront unit. It is not a pool-facing unit and is not set back from the beach requiring a long walk from your unit to the pool or beach like many of the larger resorts on the island.

The thoughtfully chosen furnishings and décor in this recently remodeled top-floor penthouse unit will envelop you with the island lifestyle. The unit is equipped with everything you need for a great Maui vacation including beach chairs, umbrellas, coolers, beach mats and beach towels.

WHAT YOU'LL LOVE:
The View: The moment you step inside PH24, you will be greeted by a breathtaking view of the turquoise waters of the Pacific Ocean that is unmatched by most other condos on Maui. Our beachfront unit is directly on the ocean.

Relax on your private lanai with a Mai Tai and enjoy a front row seat to watch outrigger canoes glide by, green sea turtles swimming in the surf, magnificent humpback whales as they return each winter to enjoy the warm Maui waters, and some of the best sunsets on the island. While several units have one wall on the lanai that juts out and obstructs your view, ours does not.

Beachfront Resort: Lounge on soft white sands, walk the 5-mile long undeveloped beach, or enjoy stand up paddle boarding, kayaking, and snorkeling on in the warm waters of Maui’s south coast – just steps from your unit.

Luxury Accommodations: Relax and unwind in our completely remodeled beach front condo unit with your own private lanai. Embrace modern accommodations with a king size bed with luxurious Hotel Collection sheets, fully-equipped kitchen with solid surface (Caesarstone) counters and Bosch appliances including a built-in fridge, induction stove top, and 30” wall oven, 2 flat screen TVs (50” 4K TV in living room and 40” flat screen TV in the bedroom) with upgraded digital cable and Netflix, 40” soundbar with 5.1 digital surround sound with subwoofer and Bluetooth connectivity in the living room, and complimentary Wi-Fi and long distance calls to the U.S. and Canada, and a queen+ American Leather sleeper sofa – the most comfortable sleeper sofa we could find, and we tried them all.

THE LOCATION:
Sugar Beach Resort is central to all of the beautiful beaches and incredible activities Maui offers:
• Wailea: 15 minutes. Play a round of golf, dine at award winning restaurants, or browse the luxurious Shops of Wailea.
• Paia, Baldwin State Park, and the North Shore: 20 minutes. Watch the surfers, kiteboarders and windsurfers on Maui’s north shore, hang at Baldwin Beach or baby beach, grab a bite to eat at one of the several great cafés, and then explore the galleries, boutiques, and eclectic shops of Paia Town.
• Ioa Valley State Park: 20 minutes. Explore the trails and check out the tropical flora of Hawaii on your trek along the ‘Ioa Valley Lookout Trail and Ethnobotanical Loop and learn about the plants that Hawaiians brought to Maui.
• Makawao and Upcountry: 25 minutes. Check out the Historic Paniolo Country of Upcountry Maui. This charming town was once named one of the top 25 arts destinations in the U.S.
• Lahaina: 30 minutes. Take in Front Street and the old whaling town of Lahaina. People-watch, have dinner and browse more galleries, boutiques and shops.
• Kaanapali: 35 minutes. Enjoy Whaler’s Village and famous Kaanapali Beach.
• Haleakala National Park: 1 hour. Get up early to catch the sunrise over the crater and then hike the rugged trails and volcano at Haleakala State Park.

PARKING:
Ample free parking in two parking lots on the property.

ACTIVITIES:
Beautiful sandy beaches, spectacular sunsets, and exciting activities are yours from this beautifully remodeled Maui Beachfront condo. Enjoy lounging on soft white sands, taking a beach walk along the 5-miles of undeveloped beach, stand up paddle boarding, kayaking, or snorkeling in the turquoise waters steps from your unit on Maui’s south coast, or simply relaxing by the pool or relaxing in the hot tub and sauna.

Maui Sights and Treasures, the activities desk on the property, will happily assist you in booking all of the best tours and activities Maui has to offer.

A 5 minute walk down the beach brings you to Kihei Canoe Club, Sugar Beach Bakery (fantastic baked goods, pies, macaroons, malasadas, and spam musubi), Ululani’s Shave Ice – voted Maui’s Best Shave Ice, a farmer’s market (Monday through Friday) for fresh local fruit and produce, and an ABC Store.

The Kihei Canoe Club offers a Visitor Paddling Program that includes an introduction to Hawaiian Culture, instruction in outrigger canoe paddling, and discussion of the local sea life.

Renew with a massage or yoga class from Valley Isle Day Spa located on the property (voted South Maui’s best kept secret).

WEDDINGS & EVENTS:
Sugar Beach Events is a short walk down the beach and offers complete wedding and event planning at the beautiful ocean front venue. If you are attending an event at Sugar Beach Events, Sugar Beach Resort is a great spot to stay.

When you rent from us you will be dealing directly with the owner and not with a commercial property rental agency. Many of the "by owner" listings on VRBO are not actually by the owner, but by rental agencies. This is our personal Maui vacation home. As guests in our home, we take great care to provide you with attentive and timely service in order to make your Hawaiian vacation as enjoyable as possible.

TRIP CANCELLATION / TRAVEL INSURANCE RECOMMENDED: We recommend you purchase trip cancellation / travel insurance.

Other natural disasters are also available including wild fires. It is recommended that you purchase travel insurance no matter when you travel. We DO NOT deviate from our stated cancellation policy for any refund for illness, natural disasters, or weather-related cancellations or concerns.

We will not offer refunds for fear of travel caused by the COVID-19 virus or other viral outbreaks, epidemics and pandemics in the State of Hawaii or otherwise.

Check in was good. When I reserved a year in advance, it showed a high top table on the balcony. I was disappointed to see a low top table. Wish the owners would have provided information on how to get local stations on the TV and how to use the induction stove. We figured out the stove but used my UTube tv account to access programs on the television.. our unit was very clean and good view. Bed was most comfortable. Did not care for having to put bed linen in the washer before we left but we did do this. The grounds , pool and beach area were all very good. All in all we had a great time.

Great place to stay. Amazing vies and beach. The only reason I didn’t give 5 stars is slow communication and the welcome/information booklet was found on the bottom shelf of the coffee table. Had it been on the table or counter, this would be 5 stars. But yes, I would recommend this condo and stay there again.

What an amazing property! The views were incredible. The condo was beyond clean. It had an amazingly well-appointed kitchen! The very luxurious bed had the BEST sheets and the most comfortable pillows. The owner kindly extended our check out to accommodate a last minute reschedule to see the sunrise at Haleakala. The downsides were very few. We noticed that the bath towels had a bit of a mildewy smell. We had to reach out for assistance in operating the TV and safe as the Welcome Book had no instructions. We might suggest to verify that the door code is changed between rentals. Per the Welcome Book, it appeared that the same code was used for each renter. Aside from these minor hiccups, our first trip to Maui was made even more enjoyable by having such a comfortable space to return to each night! Thank you for your hospitality!

Lovely apartment with a great view. Kind of surprised that we were asked to launder the bed linens and towels prior to our departure, especially considering that we paid a substantial cleaning fee in addition to the weekly rate. But we complied, fearing that we wouldn't get our security deposit back.

The view from the unit is AMAZING. The sound of the ocean at night lulls you to sleep. The unit was clean and just enough space for us to be a family in. We did not use the resort amenities offered, we were in town for a wedding and to visit family. But will definitely do so on our next trip. The location of the resort is great. You are in very close proximity to the center of town. We were just so pleased with the unit. We will definitely try to book this unit again.

We are so sad about the fire on Maui but we decided to still visit the island to show our support. The condo was lovely. The view from the condo & sound of the ocean is magical. The condo was clean & well stocked. The beaches are heavenly. Please do not hesitate to go to Maui, the island runs on tourism and the community welcomed us with open arms & asked that we spread the word - Please visit Maui!!

Maui Whirlwind Visit
The condo was great! My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. We toured the west side of Maui the first day we flew in - it was a treacherous drive at best. We did Haleakala sunrise on the first full day (Sunday) - it was amazing! On Monday, we drove the Road to Hana, going all the way to the State Park to the 7 pools and Banyon tree. Then drove back to the black sand beach and the lava tunnels. We snorkeled the next morning (Tuesday) and did an evening outrigger tour. Thank goodness we had a comfy bed to get rested up and a kitchen so we could eat good food. The views were breath-taking from the PH balcony! Will definitely come back if we return! Funny coincidence - our Cocoa Beach next-door neighbors stayed at the resort 2 weeks before we did! Thanks for providing this beautiful locale!

This was such a great space to enjoy a week long trip. The beach was right in front of us to lay out on, walk along and just enjoy the sound of the waves. The girls they have available are so nice to use and the pool was great to hang around while relaxing. Our condo was located in a great spot. Away from the business but only 10 mins from all the fun as well. Will be back!

This condo was fabulous and exactly as billed. The unit was updated, beautiful, and very clean. The view from the balcony cannot be beat. It was amazing to wake up and see/hear the ocean every morning. The location in Kihei is very central to everything on the island. We chose to stay here as we were doing things all across the island so it was an easy drive in either direction to get where we needed to go. I'll admit that Sugar Beach is not the prettiest beach on Maui, but I strongly recommend staying here if you want something centrally located. My husband would argue that Sugar Beach is the his favorite beach ever because he hates the sand and he could just keep his lounge chair on the grass, which was just steps to the water. The pool and hot tub were great as well and never very crowded. It is pretty windy on this area of the island and seems to get more so throughout the afternoon compared to the morning, but the breeze was often welcomed to cool down the hot sun and was never too much that I wasn't able to read a book. The unit had beach chairs, umbrella, boogie board and plenty of towels. The only thing we did not find that would have been nice is a cooler, but we were ablet to make do with hot/cold bags. Check-in/check-out was super simple and easy. We were given all the instructions/codes/etc that we needed and had no issues whatsoever. If we did have a question, the owners were very easy to reach and were quick to respond. I cannot recommend renting this unit enough!

One week stay
The property was nice and clean,but it seemed that a neighbor was constantly opening and closing a sliding door which very loud in the unit we rented. This felt like went on from around 7:00 AM until about 10:00 PM daily. The unit itself was very well stocked as promised. The first and second nights we were there, there was a big storm and water did get in the unit at the bottom of the sliding door to the balcony as well as the fixed windows on either side. We did call the property manager and all he said was put down some towels, wring them out and wash them. He did not appear to be at all concerned. We just wanted to make sure that we were not held responsible for any problems. The check in process was fairly easy, but communication with the on duty person in the office was a bit of a challenge due to a language barrier that we were able to overcome. The on site activity center no longer has a computer so guests can print boarding passes, but the resort office is still telling guests that they can print boarding passes at the center. The location is very convenient to Wailea, Maalaea harbor, Lahaina and Kapalua.
