As frequent visitors to Hawaii we've tried all
sorts of lodgings and this unit easily ranks as
the best condo we've stayed in.  The ocean
view allowed us the opportunity for excellent
morning and evening whale watching and the
balcony was our own private place of refuge
after the rigors of a day of sightseeing.
The condo was quiet, clean, well stocked and
the amenities like the pool, hot tub, grills and
so on, were all well maintained. This is
definitively at the top of the list for future Maui
visits, but mean-while, thanks for letting us
experience Maui in relaxed comfort.

Place was great and the whales were
everywhere! Nice to be on the top floor of
this beautiful complex.  I really hope to
return some day soon.

Hi Ken $ Claire, Really enjoyed our stay.
Preferred it to Kehei.  Saw lots of whales
and a few turtles.  The lanai was perfect!
Carolyn & Lee 12/4/2009
"Thank You" so much for giving us the
opportunity to share your little piece of
paradise. It is so tranquil here listening to the
constant sounds of the ocean.  What a treat for
us to be able to just veg out with good books
and "happy hour" each evening on the lanai.
The next time we come back to Maui we hope
that the Mahana 1213 is available.  Any other
place has a very tough act to follow.  Everything
about your place is Perfect!
ps Wish we would have been here for our 29th
anniversary on 11/28...it is
so romantic here.

Your place was a perfect "base" of operations
for us on Maui.  Really liked all the modern
appliances (especially the blender for the odd
pina colada...) Ken, you were right about the
great condition of The Mahana is kept in.  
BBQ's were fantastic.  Hope to return.  Regards.

We had a great time in Maui.  Your condo was
perfect for us.  The views were gorgeous from
the lanai. We loved waking up and falling asleep
to the sounds of the ocean waves. We were
very impressed with how clean the grounds
were kept at The Mahana.  We would definitely
recommend this place to our friends.  We hope
that we will be back someday too!

This condo is so comfy & perfect! View was
Spectacular and amazing. Everything was perfect;
especially the kitchen (had everything you
needed). 1st time to Hawaii and hope to come
back again.  Thanks so much for  a wonderful
place to stay after a long day of hiking.

Aloha Ken! Today is our last day on Maui and we
are sad to be leaving this amazing condo. It was
such a treat to fall asleep to the sound of the
ocean. We really enjoyed our stay there and felt
very much at home.  We hope to come back again
in the future.

Thank you for sharing your lovely piece  of
heaven on earth.  We truly enjoyed it.

Thank you for everything you provided for us in
the condo. We had everything we needed to make
it a wonderful stay. Like others have said we loved
the lanai's views. We spent more time sitting out
there than we thought we would. We loved The
Mahana's pool and hot tub. When we cooked here
at the condo we found everything we needed. It
was so nice and relaxing to stay here & I'd highly
recommend 1213 to anyone coming to Maui.  It
was a trip we won't forget.  Thanks!!
p.s. We appreciated all the newer kitchen
appliances, TV, bed, etc. Everything has a new
feel to it which made it that much nicer!

done.  We had a wonderful vacation.

We absolutely loved staying in your condo for 2
weeks and will recommend it to anyone ankling. In
fact we already did but you were booked. This
condo is tastefully decorated and equipped. It
added to a wonderful visit with gorgeous views
lovely sunsets a quiet pool relaxing spa and a
great Lanai. We are sitting in your comfortable  
Brown and Jordan furniture on the lanai on our
last morning, but sadly don't want to leave. We
would love to come back again next year to this
very same condo. Our only suggestion is to
second the comments about a room darkening
shade on the window in the second bedroom.  
Thanks for making our stay fantastic.

Thank you for sharing such a special place. The
decor, location, views are just incredible. We
had a fantastic time and were even treated to
the most beautiful rainbow directly in front of the
us. Our last morning on the lanai.  We simply
could not have asked for anything more!
Amazing!!!!
Brian 10/11/2009
Steve & Tom. What a beautiful condo. Thank
you so much for sharing it with so many! This
was our third trip to Maui and the best one yet.
We will never go back to staying at a resort!
The condo was very clean, spacious, had
everything we needed plus some.  The Hawaiian
Cd's were a nice touch. The sunset from the
lanai - amazing! What a hidden gem. We look
forward to our next visit.
Cathy & Chris 9/30/2009
One word- WOW!!! What can I say? After
several visits to all the islands at several hotels
and a couple of rental houses, we have
probably not enjoyed any lodging as much as
we have yours! Absolutely gorgeous & not
skimping on any of the details makes all the
difference. If we manage to purchase a condo
here I want to know your contractor / decorator!
Thanks, truly, for such a lovely place!

We had a great time in Maui & Oahu!
Beautiful condo - it was breathtaking when
we walked in and it was so nice to have
everything fully stocked. Our highlights
included biking Haleakala, shopping in
Lahaina, the Old Lahaina Luau and the
road to Hana.  We loved having the beach
right out front and appreciated the snorkel
gear. Overall we loved our first trip to
Hawaii and hope to return soon!

Got engaged the day before we came!!!
We had an amazing 14 days in Maui and
truly enjoyed every minute of the Condo.
While here we adventured many different
places! The best thing was we saw a giant
pod of spinner dolphins.
p.s The Westin luau was amazing!!
Rocky Julie Auna Mara 7/10/2009
This home is beautiful and we love all
the attention to detail. The view gets
no better than this!! Our trip highlights
were bike riding down thew volcano
and swimming with the turtles at Black
Rock. Thank you for sharing your
wonderful home...now it's back to rain
in Washington!

We came to Maui celebrate our daughters
high school graduation with her friend. We've
been to Hawaii several times but this condo
was the best accommodation we've had. We
all loved it and hope to return.
