Amazing View
by K.Webber
This unit is GREAT!!! My husband and I took a chance and booked this unit twice for two different vacations based on the provided pictures on CB Island's website. The property is quiet, clean and has an amazing sunset view. Our favorite thing to do every morning was sit and eat breakfast out on the lanai. We get to listen to the birds chirps and on a rare occasion hear the ocean crashing. Proximity to awesome shopping, beaches and great eats. Tara from Cb Island was super helpful with any questions and needs that I had. We would definitely stay here again.Things I hope will be fixed for future stays; (nit picking at this point)-Bring your own bath towels, the provided towels smelled cleaned, but once they got wet has a wet dog smell both visits-Ants in the master bathroom, not a lot just enough to remind you to not to let your guard down. -Master bathroom shower is slow to drain.-The property has quiet time (10PM-8AM) but the surrounding golf course doesn't abide by that on multiple occasions on both stays we were woken up from people working on the lawn anywhere from 3AM-4:30 AM Again this unit is great, cant wait to book our next adventure.
We love this condo!
by Horton
We have stayed in Ekolu 908 twice now. We love the position of this unit and its amazing 180 degree + views. Its comfy and quiet and close to everything you need to do.
Great stay at Wailea Ekolu 908
by Gary J.
We had a great time at this condo. Lots of room, nice furniture and appliances, great view! Very conveniently located.
We are so glad you enjoyed your stay Gary. Thank you for the thoughtful five-star review!
A Nice Unit.
by David D.
The unit was clean and had excellent air conditioning and fans. The view is excellent and the unit is just above a golf green. Nice supply of beach towels and beach chairs. Plenty of parking and you can walk down the hill to shops and restaurants. We were disappointed by a few things: The unit is the most poorly stocked of the 5 or so I have rented in the last 12 years. There is salt and pepper. That's it. It's nice to have some spices and olive oil, etc. Also: Two rolls of the cheapest toilet paper you can buy in each bathroom for a nine night stay is ridiculous. Same with the paper towels. At this price, we shouldn't have to buy our own. We like Wailea Ekolu and will come back. It's a great place and a great location. Wasn't crazy to find that the connecting unit was under renovation on the weekdays. Lots of hammering and sawing. Definitely lessened our enjoyment.
Excellent condo with terrific views of the ocean.
by David B.
This place is wonderful. First off, the entire condo was **** & span, clean! I mean clean, clean. Plenty of storage throughout, plus it has been updated beyond what you’d even expect. From the bedrooms & bathrooms... to the living room with a PS5 & plenty of games... to the snorkel gear, this place has it all & is the nicest we’ve stayed in over the years. The kitchen is fully stocked & then some. Anything that you could possibly need is there. The views of the ocean & the huge lanai are amazing. I honestly can’t come up with a single negative about this place. We will definitely be back.
A great experience!
by Christina G.
I truly had a wonderful time at Wailea Ekolu condos! The rooms were beautifully decorated, and all amenities were comfortable. They were also centrally located a short distance from the resorts and restaurants.
Also the view was unbelievable!!
My only thing was we accidentally got locked out of our condo but someone quickly reset the code for us!
Thank you so much for your kind words! We are thrilled to hear that you had a wonderful time at Wailea Ekolu condos and enjoyed the beautifully decorated rooms and comfortable amenities. The central location near resorts and restaurants is indeed a great advantage. We are delighted that the view left a lasting impression on you.We apologize for the inconvenience of getting locked out of your condo, but we're glad that our team was able to quickly reset the code for you. Your satisfaction is our priority, and we appreciate your understanding.Thank you for choosing CBIV for your stay, and we hope to welcome you back for another unforgettable experience in the future.Mahalo
Five Stars!
This condo was in a perfect location and with the best view of the ocean. While not on the beach, it is less than .5 miles to walk or drive to the beach - and very quiet and relaxing. The unit was very clean, well decorated and equipped with everything we needed. Beach chairs and towels were appreciated and we rented an umbrella for the week from a local business. This was our first trip to HI and Maui - and in particular, Wailea, was the most beautiful and well maintained area. We loved everything about our stay in this condo. We will return. Mahalo!
Aloha Tina, We're delighted that you enjoyed the condo's location, ocean view, cleanliness, and amenities. It's great to hear that Wailea met your expectations. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Thank you for choosing CB Island Vacations for your first trip to Hawaii!
Great stay in Maui
We stayed for the first time in Wailea after being recommended to check out units at the Ekolu. The day before our stay, unfortunately the AC went out in the unit - however, the management company provided prompt notification with options, and by the time we arrived, had portable AC units set up for us (along with giving us a discount on our stay). The portable units made our stay perfectly comfortable. You can’t beat the view of this place - it has to be one of the best in the complex. We were pleasantly surprised that the unit was in great shape and clean (we’ve found other rentals not to match up with the pics - this one I’d say is even better in person!). The location isn’t busy, is private, and easy access to everything. Parking was never an issue, and the unit is equipped with quality items/everything you’d need! We would 100% stay here again, and we’ve already referred others looking to visit Maui. Thank you!
Very comfy and classy

We take pride in providing exceptional service to our guests, and it's gratifying to know that our efforts are appreciated. Mahalo and we look forward to welcoming you back in the near future
A Beautiful home
by Fred S.
This unit is one of the best Ekolu properties we have ever rented. It has a fabulous view of the ocean and overlooks the golf course. It is tastefully furnished with great beds and modern appliances. The only knock is that the greens keepers begin mowing at 8am so sleeping in can be a problem
Wonderful Maui Condo
by Janice G.
The condo, Ekolu 908, is a nicely furnished unit with a grand golf course and ocean view. It has everything in the kitchen one will need to cook and prepare great meals. The bbq grills at the complex are nearby and we used them often to cook fresh fish we bought at a nearby market. The beds are comfortable. The deck is nicely furnished. One night there were fireworks at the Grand Wailea which is located a little over 1/4 mile straight behind out condo. The deck provided a perfect view to the fireworks and made it feel like they were just for us! We would love to come back and stay here again.

Best views in Wailea!
Excellent accommodation in an excellent location! The unit has been very tastefully updated to take on a local charm. Very good split-unit A/C (that’s the good kind!) for those of us who need a little reprieve from the glorious but constant Maui warmth. Easy walking distance to Shops at Wailea where you can find a nice mix of shopping and dining opportunities AND and an even shorter walk to the newish Wailea Village with some really cool shopping and dining experiences. The unit itself has an unbelievable, unobstructed view perched above the 10th (I think) green of the Wailea Blue Golf Course. You can see from Makena State Park all the way over to the west Maui mountains. Every morning you can watch the various snorkel and dive boats make their way out to Molokini, and while we were there, we could see many blow spouts of the whales making their way along the coast. The management were highly responsive, and the check-in process was seamless. It was an excellent experience, and will be top of our list for future visits!
Aloha Nathan, Thank you so much for taking the time to detail your experience. Ekolu 908 is truly a beautiful home and very well located. We are so glad you enjoyed the visit and hope to host you again soon. Mahalo for booking with CB Island Vacations.
Great location, Great views!!!
by Brian E.
This was our second time staying at this condo. The condo is in a great location in Wailea. Fantastic 180 degree view of the ocean. The condo has a nice interior and was very clean. I highly recommend!
Wow!

The best vacation rental in Maui
by Vincent K.
Everything was clean and where it should be. Situated in a very quiet and good location, convenient to everywhere
A relaxing stay
by Thomas O.
As others have mentioned, the view really is incredible, and it's wonderful spending time on the lanai relaxing and watching the sun set. The place itself was clean and though there were some maintenance issues, management tended to them quickly. We'd definitely stay here again.
(Note: while we were told there is no propane grilling allowed, there is absolutely a gas grill near the unit that was in use. Otherwise, pick up some charcoal and use the charcoal grill.)
Aloha Mr. Osborne, Thank you for your review. Our apologies regarding the maintenance issues, we do our best to stay ahead of them but sometimes things go wrong and we can only promptly respond. I am glad we were able to resolve the issues quickly. Sorry for the confusion on the gas grills. Recently, Maui County has changed its policy allowing grills on the lanai (porch). If you were informed there was no propane grill, this should have been relayed that there is not one in the unit. You are correct that the property does have grills that can be used on a first come first serve basis. Mahalo for booking with CB Island vacations.
Amazing Condo Near Wailea!
by John B.
My family and I loved this condo and would definitely try it again. The check in was easy, and the unit was ready upon our arrival. The condo décor was modern and beautiful. The view from the lanai was amazing, which we enjoyed every morning at breakfast. Great air conditioning in each room, along with very comfortable beds. Also, this unit is only a few minutes from great beaches in Wailea.

We had a wonderful stay at Wailea Ekolu, the condo was in a great location with wonderful views overlooking the blue golf course and looking out to the ocean. The condo was very nicely decorated and it had everything we needed to make our stay so comfortable. We loved sitting on the lanai to watch the amazing sunsets!
Aloha! Thank you for the review. We are thrilled to hear you had a wonderful stay at the Wailea Ekolu 908 and took in the views of the fairway. We look forward in booking your next vacation back here on Maui real soon!

Love the place. Our second time staying. Unit needs some new carpet and a blind in the kitchen, otherwise terrific.
Thank you for choosing to stay with us, and we are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay! Our new owners are working on upgrading their space and We agree, the location of this unit can't be beat! We hope to accommodate you in the future! Mahalo.
Great Maui Condo!
by Jennifer C.
My family of 4 recently stayed at this condo and loved it. The space was very comfortable...especially the beds. There was plenty of space. The kitchen was well stocked. The balcony views were amazing! We are every meal out there. The area was so nice. It was very convenient to everything Maui has to offer. I highly recommend this condo and would gladly stay there again.
Wonderful condo!
by Jordan K.
This place was perfect for our stay on Maui! The condo itself is stunning with great amenities, the views were incredible, and the location was perfect!
Nice Condo with an amazing view,
by Brian E.
Very nice condo with an updated kitchen, nice TV with streaming service and an amazing view from the Lanai. The location is minutes from Wailea Village and many amazing restaurants in the area. I was so impressed with the staff at CB Island vacations. We had to change our dates several times due to COVID, and they were tremendous in accommodating us. Our only wish would be that the master bedroom had a bigger bed. Other than that, everything was great!
Enjoyed our stay
by Tom K.
The four members of our party had a nice stay. The kitchen and bathrooms have been nicely remodeled. The kitchen was extremely well equipped. The unit has a washer and dryer which is nice for longer stays. The air conditioning worked great. The unit is a relatively short 5 minute walk down to the beach. You have to find your way through a resort and/or find the access roads to Wailea or Ulua beaches. We found lots of good local restaurants in nearby Kihei. A tip - ask the wait staff for recommendations. We had a few minor quibbles. The internet access kept dropping. We called the local provider directly who came out and diagnosed a problem with the equipment/wiring in the building. Fortunately they were able to repair the same day but I'm surprised previous renters had apparently not reported issues. The complex offers recycling, however the items need to be sorted into separate containers. The unit info/instruction sheet should make this clear. We reported the following to the management company: Some of the cushions on the chairs on the lanai need to be cleaned or replaced. The dining area chairs are showing lots of wear and need to be replaced. A storage closet door was off the track and needed to be fixed. Overall a nice unit and very nice stay.
Thank you for choosing to stay with us, and we are happy to hear you had a nice stay! It is so great that you have made your way to the beaches and restaurants near by along with making connections with the locals. Since your stay we are looking at getting new cushions for the lanai as well as getting the closet door back on track. We will be sure to share your feedback with the owner in regards to possible updates and improvements. We hope to accommodate you in the future! Mahalo.
Great place for our quiet, serene honeymoon
by Kyle H.
My wife and I spent a few days here for our honeymoon. The nearby beaches were the best beaches in the world, including Big Beach, White Rock, and Secret Cove, which looks like a beach from a dream. The area was quiet, the property was pristine, elegant, and comfortable. Multiple nearby restaurants had amazing food/atmosphere. The view was jaw-dropping. I just kept staring at the ocean and could not look away. Could not have been more satisfied.
Aloha, Congratulations on your Wedding! We are so excited that your honeymoon here on Maui was a memorable one, especially the views of the beaches as well as the elegance of the property. We look forward to accommodating you on your return trip back to Maui.Mahalo!
Great location
Easy access to shopping, restaurants and golf. Clean and well stocked. For just two of us it was perfect. Four people would be tight. Great views from balcony. Would stay here again.
The great and not so great
by Ray M.
The rental unit itself was great, just what we expected from the online description. Not so great is the fact that after getting a "Total Quote" for the unit, supposedly including all fees (these were spelled out) we discovered (from our credit card statement) that VRBO hit us for another $115.00 that was not disclosed anywhere.
When I called CBIP they said that VRBO is the listing service they use. So why was I charged for this? Or, why wasn't the VRBO fee disclosed? A quick reading of the CBIP contract reveals that it does not mention VRBO even once!
Wailea Ekolu 908
by david b.
We enjoyed our stay at the Wailea Ekolu 908 condo. The views from this condo are absolutely the best. It's located close to the shopping center in Wailea and the resort beach walks.
The furnishings are nice, but a little dated, but not bad. The place has a nice Hawaiian theme throughout. The furniture could have been a little cleaner. Speaking specifically about the couch and dining chairs.
Items in need of improvement:
1. The unit has a small washer/dryer and it's horrible and in need of replacement. There was mold growing in the unit and it takes a long to wash and dry a load. This is the biggest complaint we had.
2. The TV in the master bedroom we were never able to figure out. Most likely operator error, but we couldn't figure it out.
3. The unit has AC but it takes a while for the AC to cool the place down, as it's a hybrid of a wall unit.
In short, we would stay there again and very much enjoyed out stay, but the things I mention above would have significantly improved on the experience. We also had a Gecko who spent a couple of days in the Master Bath with us. I finally relocated him to the landscaping outside.
Aloha David,Thank you for staying with us at Wailea Ekolu 908 and yes, the views are absolutely stunning. We appreciate your feedback and I have requested that the carpets and the couch be professionally cleaned. The housekeeper has been notified about the cleanliness issues regarding the dining chairs and the washer and dryer. I have also forwarded your recommendation of replacing the washer and dryer to the owners. In the future, please do not hesitate to call our Guest Service Team whenever there is an issue, especially like the television not working. We gladly would trouble shoot or show you how to operate it. I have also put a work order in with our maintenance team to inspect the air conditioner.We are glad that you will come back and stay with us again. We look forward to your return.CB Island Vacations

Beautiful Condo
by Andrew K.
This condo was perfect - amazing views, nicely decorated, great kitchen, plenty of space. Right on the golf course, about a mile walk to the beach.
Great Accomodation with one caveat
by Andreas W.
Great location with a fantastic view from the lanai.
Spacious and clean condo.
Short walk to shops and restaurants.
Short drive to Big Beach and Maluaka Beach.
However, one significant caveat was that the blinds in both bedrooms were damaged wich makes it hard to sleep longer than sunrise and put kids to bed during the day.
What a view!
by forcia T.
We stay at Ekolu most of the time when we travel to Maui and have enjoyed many of the properties over the years. We chose this unit and were most pleased with it. From the lavish grass cloth covered ceilings to the wonderfully updated kitchen, this unit is one of the nicest yet. The view is unparalleled and unobstructed. The sunsets are fabulous.
Great trip
by Andy F.
Clean, beautiful condo with awesome views of the golf course and the ocean. Everything we were hoping for and then some.
Beautiful Ocean View
by Adriane D.
This vacation rental has a beautiful ocean view. The place was very clean and had everything you needed for your stay.
The only thing that needs attention is the extra bedroom has broken blinds, so you don't have any privacy with the sliding door.
Overall I would stay here again and the place is clean with a million dollar view to enjoy every day.

This stay was short as it was 4 days prior to the long term accommodations we booked on short notice
We typically stay much closer to the beach
The condo was very clean and exceptionally well stocked with every you could possibly need
Great Holiday!
by Lisa C.
Wonderful stay in Maui, felt fortunate to find this villa when we booked late. Great view and size and location. Would def rent again!
Vacations should be stress free--this rental is!
There are lots of reasons to vacation on resort properties or not. For us, being off resort in a home based setting was our desire and this property ticked all the boxes. Easy to reserve, locate, access, use and depart. The rental was high end all around (and I've been in Paris apartments, Greek cave homes and Amsterdam boat rentals!!) and my husband said hands down, his favorite in all our world travels. Why? Instant relaxation via the furnishings, views, solace and singing birds. We golfed most days, we visited every near by resort (Fairmont, Four Seasons, Grand Wailea and Marriott) for the dining 'experience'. Wailea Beach park is an easy 2 minute drive next to the Four Seasons too--early mornings after a home made breakfast spent at the beach reading and swimming added to our bonus downtime. Loved, loved this rental and look forward to returning!!! Mahalo
Million Dollar View
Our overall stay in #908 was enjoyable. The unit was exactly as described however we would like to make a few suggestions. As being previous owners of a condominium in Wailea there are some deficiences that could be corrected to make the stay an A+.
First, the door mat at the front door was dirty and worn. The edges were curled that could cause a fall. Not a good first impression of the unit.
The bed pillows should be replaced every 6 months. We purchased our own pillows for comfort.
The carpeting in both bedrooms was extremely soiled.
The kitchen window blind was broken allowing sun to pour into the kitchen preventing the unit to cool.
The window blind in the twin bed bedroom was broken.
The air conditioner in the kitchen, mail living area was very noisy and not cooling the unit properly.
Other than these maintenance issues the unit is beautiful and offers a true Hawaiian experience.
Amazing home!!!
We just got back from a week long stay in this beautiful vacation rental and we couldn't be happier! The view was perfection, the furnishings were pristine, and it felt like home. We were so sad to leave! There was even a lovely gift basket filled with candy, fruit and snacks waiting for us when we arrived. We will definitely be back! Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us!
