Amazing Waterfront View in Kahana!
by James & Christine Reamer
-We loved waking up to the amazing water views every morning! The unit was well appointed and decorated nicely. -Our daughter enjoyed the wall/murphy bed, but it was a bit cumbersome to takedown & setup each day, so we ended up leaving it down the whole time. There was a lil bit of room to maneuver around the bed & couch so it wasn't too much an issue. -There is no A/C, so we ended up keeping the doors open (slider & front door) to get a breezeway. We did ask for a key to the security front door to lock it from outside so we could continue to get the breeze even though we weren't in there with the front door open. We came on one of the hottest weeks (in August) so we used every fan they had, it took a lot to get used to the humidity & the heat, (I'm from the desert & I live on A/C there). We also had the bedroom windows open to get more air but the drawback was hearing cars start up and people moving & talking while going/coming to other condos at early morning & late nights.-The unit did supply these items: 4 beach chairs, beach towels, paper towels & toilet paper for a couple days, some binoculars, 1 coffee sampler for coffee maker, soap for each sink, dishwasher pods, as well as leftover products from previous guests like: Pam spray, spices, oil, etc - so check room before going shopping. -The Lanai has a bar table and 4 bar seats which was great for eating & viewing the ocean (& the pool right in front). There were times I wished it had a couple of lounge chairs to relax on. We ended up using a couple of the beach chairs on the lanai to sit back and relax on, especially to watch the sunset or the stars at night.Although you have an amazing ocean view, there is no direct beach access. You have to walk, via the street, to a close-by beach area. The seawall does allow for some great turtle-eating watching at low tide, usually in the morning!-The complex has a W/D laundromat, so they are not in your room. Only drawback is it's only open until 7 or 7:30pm and then it's locked up. We are usually coming back to our condo at night so that's a little inconvenient for putting a load in and waiting for it to dry!!All in all a nice, a well kept complex that we would come back to, but just in the winter/spring months to enjoy cooler breezes. Mahalo!
Piece of Paradise

What a great place to call home while visiting Maui. My wife and I had a wonderful time. The ocean filled with Whale activity right off the deck. Anything that you might need is right there. From the pool to bbq you couldn’t ask for more. We started talking about our next trip to Kahana Reef before we even left the island. Mahalo
We'll be back!
by T and J
Cozy unit perfect for 2. Well appointed w/o clutter. No AC, but fans and breezes kept us quite comfortable. Kahana Reef grounds were clean with adequate parking. Coin laundry was easy to use. Location was quiet vs. the Kaanapali crowds. The lanai view was wonderful: whales breaching, turtles nearby and about as close to the ocean as you can get. Had a great time and hope to return next year! Mahalo--
Kahana Reef 205
by Yvonne Huff
This condo exceeded our expectations in every way: location, amenities, hosts!This was our first time visiting Maui so we had no idea where the best place to stay would be. Turns out, this was it! There was 3 of us traveling: my mother, my husband and me. My husband and I slept in the bedroom and my mother took the trundle bed in the living room. These beds were super comfortable to our surprise! The condo was very clean and provided everything we needed for our stay, including beach towels and beach chairs, which came in handy for our beach trips! The WiFi was fast and we were able to stream our favorite channels on the bedroom and living room televisions. We found this location to be perfect! Minutes away from Ka’anapali Beach, Whaler’s Village, Napili Bay, Nakalele Blowhole and so much more! We even had Maui Brewing Company within walking distance and an amazing vegan restaurant, A’A Roots, minutes away!The views from our balcony were breathtaking as you can see other islands, lots of sea turtles, surfers to the left and unobstructed views of the sunsets. Absolutely stunning. There is even a monocular scope and binoculars provided that we really enjoyed as we got up close views of the turtles and birds. Kahana Reef provided us the perfect ambiance for romantic dinners on our balcony and quiet walks on the beach that you can access easily from the property. We were far enough away from the main tourist locations to feel as if we had our own secluded beach yet close enough to everything we needed!! We will definitely be coming back and we will be right back at Kahana Reef 205!

Perfect destination
by Imelda Duarte
Me and my family stayed here at kahana reef 205 for 5 nights. It was such a beautiful and fun experience that we will always remember. Not only is it near napili beach which is so clear and blue, it is also near these really good restaurants. The condo itself is amazing it has a perfect view of the ocean and the other islands. It also has a lot of necessary utilities. The beds were so comfortable and the vibes are amazing. Right next to the condo is the pool which is so easy to access and you get a beautiful view of the ocean which you get to spot a lot of crabs and sea turtles. When we are to come again we will choose Kahana Reef 205.
Maui Memories
by Brad and Crystal Freeman
We had an awesome stay at Kahana Reef 205! We found it to be the perfect location to explore Maui, enjoy incredible ocean views and have a clean and comfortable home base for our adventures. There were three of us in our party--my husband and I and our 16-year old daughter and the condo was perfect for our needs with private bedroom and murphy bed in the living area that was easy to use and worked great for our daughter. Enjoying meals on the lanai overlooking the ocean was heavenly! Accessing activity and entertainment days was so easy -- everything was a short drive away. We really enjoyed our time here and will not hesitate to reserve again when we are in Maui!

Clean, roomy, well equipped and such amazing views, just a wonderful relaxing experience. Will be back. So nice to return from exploring to easy parking, quick and convenient access and those cool breezes and soothing sounds of waves. Paradise!
Great Place to stay in Maui
by Wendy S.
We stayed at Kahana Reef 205 for 9 nights and we're very happy with the amenities and beautiful view of the ocean. The Murphy bed was one of the reasons we chose this place. It allowed my grown daughter to have a queen-size bed without having to sleep on a sofa bed. It was a new mattress and very comfortable. The furniture was simple and updated. The only thing we had a problem with was the blinds in the bedroom. They did not open easily and were missing a few slats, so they didn't close all the way. Luckily I brought an eye mask, so that wasn't too much of a problem. Also, the bathtub drain was somewhat clogged. I had to pull out someone else's hair to help it drain better, but I think the clog was deeper down. Those were the only reasons for the two 4s. It was in a great location and within walking distance of a few stores. This was our second time staying and Kahana Reef and for the price, you can't beat it!
Hawaii Getaway
by Carolyn S.
Great location. Even though we picked a rainy week it was relaxing to sit on the Lanai and watch the waves and whales. Condo was clean and kitchen was well supplied. We would stay here again.
Great place to stay!
by Colin T.
You're next to all the foodie and tourist places that you would want to visit! would definitely go again, thanks!
AWESOME 205
by Bob and Carol Dyer
West Kahana Reef 205WOW!!! Spectacular views. Be it whale, dolphin or turtle watching from our lanai in 205. Beautiful sunsets to enjoy every night. Very comfortably furnished through out the condo. We found the Murphy bed to be a hidden gem. Secluded just enough making it a very quiet atmosphere. Just around the corner you will find anything need you might need. The management team remarkable. They checked in on us making sure our stay was great...and it was. Returning March 2023.
Perfect Place To Stay
by Kleckner Family
My family of 4 had the most amazing stay at Kahana Reef 205 in June. This condo was very clean, comfy & perfectly located for us. Right down the front steps of our building & out to the reef was the absolute most amazing snorkeling we have ever experienced! Swimming with turtles & so many tropical fish each day during low tide was a dream come true. We bought all snorkeling gear at Walmart. Our favorite places to eat were happy hour at Maui Brewing Co. & China Boat which are both right by the condo. This condo has a great pool & bbq right out back & no matter where you are, it’s the best view anywhere on Maui. Never had a problem grabbing a parking spot either. My son’s graduation trip was the best & when we come back, we will definitely stay in 205 again. Host was always available with anything I needed.
Incredible Property and Location
by Dakota Higgins
My wife and I stayed at this property for five days in October of 2021 for our honeymoon, and loved absolutely every minute of our trip. Check-in was easy and convenient. The host‘s directions were clear and informative. The rooms were clean, tastefully appointed, and well laid-out. The location can’t be beat. Whether you’re going to Maui Brewing ( a quick 5 minute walk away), one of the many beaches or resorts nearby, or taking a long drive on the Road to Hana, the location is a great home base for exploring the entire island. The pool is clean and relaxing for those who want a change of pace from all of the beaches Maui has to offer. Finally, I highly recommend sleeping on the pullout couch at least one night, to see the sunrise and wake up to the sound of the ocean waves. 5 stars for my entire stay, and I can’t wait to return.
Gorgeous setting
Perfect Maui setting in a comfortable unit. Great Lanai views all day long. Only negative is being right above the complex pool. This felt like being on display and meant listening to other's conversations while having to keep ours quiet. CB was helpful in all aspects of the rental process with good information and quick responses to any questions.
Aloha David... We're pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Kahana Reef 205. This ocean front home is the perfect location to sit on your lanai and watch the whales swim by. The pool area is very rarely crowded and is usual quiet and serene. We hope to see you back on Maui again soon!Channing

Top Notch View!
by Maggie M.
We had a lovely stay in January! We watched sea turtles and humpback whales from our lanai daily. There was an awesome little beach for us to swim and do a little snorkeling. My sons loved ending the day with a swim in the pool at sunset, such beautiful sunsets! Oh and my husband was impressed with the quality of the knives and cookware in the kitchen. Thank you for helping to make our vacation special!
Aloha Maggie... We're happy to hear that you and your Ohana had a great stay in Kahana Reef 205. This ocean front home has wonderful views for whale watching and the setting is perfect for a family vacation. We hope to see you again very soon!Channing
A home away from home!!
by Himanshu D.
My wife and I stayed in 205 at Kahana Reef and loved our stay there. The apartment was clean with breathtaking views. While it does not have an air conditioner (something we were doubtful about), but the ventilation is so good that cool air flows through the house all the time and we didn’t need an AC at all. They had fans for us too which helped a lot. The kitchen has all the utilities but could be better stocked with some more essentials. The only issue was the pool as it was small and deep and needed reservations likely due to covid restrictions. Laundry is not in-unit, but is present at the property, works fine and is always available. Balcony has a direct pool and ocean view and we loved spending time there. The bedroom was comfortable and cozy. Parking was always available. I highly recommend this place if planning to stay in Maui and would love to re-book this place on my future trips.
Aloha Himanshu... We're so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Kahana Reef 205. The Homeowner's Association actually lifted the swimming pool restrictions related to Covid-19, effective December 1, 2021. Guest can now enjoy the ocean front swimming pool without any Covid-19 restrictions.The Kahana Reef is centrally located just 10 minutes from the resort areas of Kapalua & Kaanapali. Lahaina is just a 15 minute drive from Kahana. We hope to see you and your Ohana back on Maui soon!Channing
Ocean view is amazing!
by Brandy W.
We loved our stay at Kahana Reef 205! We had everything we needed and the views were breathtaking. Waking up to the ocean sounds was so nice and relaxing.
Aloha Brandy... We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay in Kahana Reef 205. This second floor, ocean front home has beautiful views of the Pacific ocean, with views of the Islands of Lanai & Molokai. The oceanfront pool and barbecue are always the highlight of our guests stays. We sincerely hope to see you and your Ohana back on Maui soon!Channing
Great place with great views!
This place was great! It was clean, comfortable and had great views! Would highly recommend!
Aloha Kristina... Were so pleased that you enjoyed your stay at Kahana Reef 205. We hope to see you again on Maui soon!
Awesome Views!
by Ajay Kumar G.
The views from the balcony and the living area are amazing. Well maintained and clean apartment. There was no AC but with the fans and the balcony door open we were good and never had an issue. We would definitely stay again if we get a chance.
Amazing view and great modern unit
Love this unit! One of the best feature is the ocean front view, and amazing sunsets! The unit was clean and nicely remodeled. Fully stocked with kitchen accessories and the Murphy bed was perfect. Tiled floors made it easy to clean. The property itself was great, easy access to the beach and the pool was cleaned and maintained everyday. Also best highlight was the Turtles just swim right up to the sea wall.
