Oceanfront MB202 - Ma'alaea Maui Condo with Spectacular Ocean Views; 1BR/1BA

Charming Ma’alaea Banyans 202 is a fully equipped condominium located in a serene resort with 180-degree ocean views. The bedroom boasts a queen-sized bed while the living room has a sofa sleeper, making it an ideal accommodation for up to four guests. Whether you are in the mood to whip up a quick snack or a full-course meal, the full kitchen has everything you need to bring out your culinary skills. The lanai offers sweeping views of the ocean and is the perfect spot to enjoy your meals. Cleanliness is paramount, and the in-unit washer and dryer ensure that you are always fresh and ready to go.

Cooling off from the tropical heat is a breeze with the ceiling fans and air conditioning in the living room, and guests can stay entertained with the flat-screen TV, complimentary cable, high-speed internet, and free Wi-Fi. The resort is a tempting option, with its tropical grounds, pool, spa, and BBQ/picnic area offering plenty of opportunities for relaxation. Take in the mesmerizing views of the sunrise, sunset, and moonlight over the bay, the neighboring islands, the Kihei coastline, or Mount Haleakala. During the winter months (November-April), watch as the majestic humpback whales return to these protected waters to birth their calves.

Exploring on foot is an excellent option for those who plan to spend a day, or more, at the resort. Ma’alaea Harbor, just a short walk away, has a bustling harbor offering exciting excursions, whale-watching tours, snorkeling trips, and sunset sails. The harbor is also home to various shops, restaurants, the Maui Aquarium, and a family-fun center with mini-golf and more. To the east lies Sugar Beach, a couple of miles of sandy serenity leading to North Kihei, where you can find some delicious eats and treats. Ma’alaea is located at the base of the isthmus that divides east and west Maui, providing easy access to various Maui attractions with low commute times (15 to 40 minutes) to Kihei, Wailea, Makena, Lahaina, Kaanapali, Kahului, Paia, and Makawao. Haleakala Summit and Hana are further, but well worth the drive. Whether you choose to stay local or venture forth, it's a win-win situation! With free parking, one vehicle per unit, parking is also not a problem.

Nice place!
This condo is right along the ocean, so the view is wonderful. There is a small lanai with a table we sat at and had breakfast and at night I would leave the window open to listen to the waves. It is an easy 15 minute drive to Kihei. the carpets could use a cleaning, but everything else was clean and also a safe area with pleasant people to say hello to. We would stay here again.

Amazing views!
We have stayed at Maalaea Banyans since 1990 in many of the condos. The views are outstanding, we love the location and walking on sugar beach. Unit 202 could use some updating, even just comfortable furniture would be great. The floors need a good scrubbing but over all the unit worked for our basic needs.

Great place but bad on amenities
The place was in a nice location with a nice view. However the amenities were severely lacking. I didn't expect there to be much, but I was surprised that there wasn't really anything at all. For example, there is a coffee maker but no coffee grounds?? They leave little single use shampoo and conditioner and 1 small box of single use detergent. And by the way, they ask you to run the washing machine with all the towels before you leave, so that's where that box of detergent is going towards. There were like 4 random spices and seasoning that seemed like they were left behind by other guests, but there basics were not there. Would have been super happy with just salt pepper and oil! It seemed like they went out of their way to be cheap, and this really inconvenienced the stay. Who likes to wake up and find out there is no coffee? Honestly, how much does it cost to properly add this stuff. Maybe get a fixed shampoo dispenser and just refill it, or just leave a jar of cheap coffee grounds! Also they charged cleaning fees for each day. I don't get why they make us take out all the trash, and start washing towels for them! Maybe just buy a spare set of towels to swap out so you don't have to inconvenience your guests. Also the bed does not seem like it is being washed properly. It smelled of sweat. Perhaps they are only washing the sheets and not changing out the blankets?? Overall, it's a nice decently nice place in a nice location, but management just seems cheap and lazy. Could have easily been 5/5 if managed right, but I will have to rate 3/5.

Accommodations fall short
Management provisions and accommodations so that all guests’s needs are provided for fall short. While every place may get incredibly great reviews and some not so great. What’s more important is to see if management actually listens and makes progressive changes to improve and better the establishment. My concerns has also been expressed by other clients. And while management acknowledged a response to those guests’s reviews. The changes were never made thus is poor mark that they don’t care. I’ll explain the shortfall once I can express why I’m frustrated. While many people may visit Maui yearly. Others make take a lifetime (30 years) to get to Maui. Note that thousands of dollars are spent by people to fly to Hawaii (estimate in plane tickets for two ($2000-$2500 with seating upgrades and luggages). Plus $ for rental car. Then the cost staying at this establishment for a week $$$. There’s 80 rooms and while there’s perhaps some people living here. $$$ x 4 weeks x 80 rooms = a lot of money monthly. Think about us being on the plane for hours coming from across the world. And then to finally get to our room. And we find out like the other prior clients’s review of the place that we still have go out and buy: bathroom bathing soap!, hand soup!, tooth paste!, dish washing soap!, laundry detergent, salt and pepper for Christ sake!! Cooking oil!!! You were well informed that there would be two guest for a whole week and yet you leave only two rolls of toilet paper!! Do you honestly think that would have been suffice? I read the note that management left on the refrigerator. It read in brief, “…we know there will be food left over. Please feel free to leave it for the staff.” I understand it now. Management is hoping every guest buys the need bathroom toilet paper and leave the unused rolls for the next set of paying guest. Well, they’re right. I left a whole new set of four rolls. So no money out of their pockets. And left olive cooking oil. And left salt and pepper. And cases of clean water bottles. It’s not the dollar that I’m disappointed about. It’s the point of “you’re in the service business”. Imagine you going to a fancy steak house and then be serve your $500 steak meal only to be told you had to bring your own fork and steak knife!!! Little things such as this in regards to the lack of consideration of guest needs is the very reason I will NOT return to this place. No one on site

The condominium we stayed in was not stocked AT ALL. There was nothing in the kitchen as far as the basics except salt, pepper and oil. The beach items were slim. We had to go buy beach towels because there were none. There were not enough hangers to hang our clothes. We have rented several different units on Maui, and none were this poorly stocked.

Perfect location!
This property is right on the edge of the ocean. The views of the sunrise were breathtaking. It’s very centrally located to everything on the island. The apartment was clean and comfortable. The company was lovely to deal with. They went out of their way to make sure I was content. My brother and his wife were staying in the building next door and often had someone parked in their assign spot so the people I rented from let me park the rental in their lot instead.

Great location, unit could use a upgrade
When we arrived the key was in the door not the lock box, they charge YOU if the key is lost.The A/c is only in the living room area, doesn’t cool down the bedroom in the back of the unit. The mattress is a rather thin and firm. With a little TLC this could be a great spot, it’s a great location with a wonderful view. The grounds are clean and lovely.

All excellent except check-in process, starter kit set, and laundry.
We (family of 4, w/ high teens) stayed there for 10 days mid September 2021. Pros: -Great ocean front view AND mountain view: Nice sound of waves, Sunrise time is awesome. You also see twinkling lights of Kihei at night. The deck is spacious. -Great location: Quick from/to OGG, and beyond. Located in the middle of both Honolua Bay and Ahihi-Kinau, the 2 best snorkeling spots far north and far south. -The room is clean, water drains well, air-conditioning works well, the epoch-making air-vent-adjusters are awesome. Beds are both large enough for all 4 of us (smaller Asians) -Free safer parking. Cons: Check-ins took half-hour. The provided key-code was wrong. The main contact closes at 4pm, though your check-in time starts at 4pm. So she is gone when you need her. Fortunately, the alternative contact was available, but expect a non-smooth check-in. Never hold your rest-room-needs before check-in. -The power breaker trips if you run the washer and dryer concurrently: You have to run either one at a time, which took us so long, and did not finish before the "quiet hours", which was a pain. -Poor starter supplies: Other condominiums we stayed before in Maui all had plenty left-overs for cooking oils, salt/peppers, paper towels, soy source, shampoos, etc, but this place had none, except soaps and TPs. I left them for the next guests, so I hope cleaning team won't take them. Same for beach-related items. Other places had many items, but they have none here. I bought and left boogie-board, beach mat, floating mat, etc, for the next guests, so I hope they stay there. It is pain to drive to Walmart only for that. -Extra sheets in the shelves smelled and unusable: Linens outside the drawers are OK, but the ones inside them do terribly. We could not use them. Other tips, just so you know: -Water filter might be handy to bring: Water in this area all tastes terrible: We had to buy gallons of water everyday for cooking, drinking, coffee, tea, making ice, etc. -The bedroom bed is hard, but the management can get you the extra sponge mat. The couch-bed, on the other hand, is too soft and bouncy, so you might want to ask them for something to make it firmer if staying longer with 4 ppl. -No stores nearby. You have to drive to Kihei for grocery and sometimes near the airport for beach related items. Over all, we enjoyed this place, I hope you do too.

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our trip. The location was perfect- not too crowded but centrally located to many points of interested. We loved coming back to the unit to relax on the balcony to the beautiful views. I highly suggest walking to the beach at sunset, as we caught a glimpse of at least one turtle every night. We would love to come back again in the future.

Quiet Maalaea
Lived on island for the past 21 years. Always thought I'd stay in Maalaea some day as it's quiet and i love the breeze. Nice condo, good value. The TV was difficult to operate. Strange system that didn't allow for channel up and down. Couldn't see the channel guide. Had to key in over 300 at a time after checking in and writing down the ones I liked. I don't watch me TV, so it didn't bother me much. Couldn't adjust the temperature on the window air conditioner. Was at 66 degrees. Had to unplug it when it got too cold, The condo was a great value. Comfortable. Very quiet complex. The only one with a hot tub in Maalaea. I enjoyed my two week stay and would return again.
