2 207 is a quiet unit at one end of the building so there's windows on two sides of the unit making it nice and light indoors. It was right beside the stairs going down to where our car was parked. We never heard any neighbours unless we were on our lanai. We did hear lots of roosters early in the morning so take earplugs if you want to sleep in. It has a peekaboo view of the ocean and a very large lanai which was lovely! We loved having two full bathrooms since our daughter came along and slept on the pullout couch. It wasn't the comfiest but it worked. The Master Bedroom King Bed did not have cotton sheets - my pet peeve is that 100% polyester microfibre sheets should be banned, but there's AC in the bedroom which helped. The other AC in the livingroom worked well too and wasn't noisy, but it did blow hot air onto the lanai so we didn't use it a lot. We were glad they provided beach chairs and spent lots of time on Kamaole 3 beach which is just a short walk across the street. Snorkeling between Kam 2 & 3 was great, but not as clear as we would have liked since December is quite wavy. There was always lots of room on the beach for everyone. We didn't talk to any staff except the person at the front desk - it's manned 24 hours but all they do is collect $40 when you arrive and give you a parking pass. There's lot of room to park. It's a huge resort with lots of BBQs and grass. We didn't use the pool, gym or other facilities, but they looked well maintained and never crowded. There is always staff gardening or cleaning the BBQ's which are right below the lanai. The kitchen came with oil and some spices but no coffee, tea or sugar, so bring your own. There was lots of shampoo, conditioner etc. for the bathrooms and the showers worked well. We rented directly through Sunny Maui Vacations and they were great. Everyone else charged a lot more, so we felt we got very good value for what we paid. We'd stay there again and recommend it.

Great location. We have only stayed in building 1 and 10. Both locations were fantastic. We have stayed here 4 times and each visit was great. Kamoale beach park 3 is right across the street. Enjoy the sunsets from the park. We felt very safe here. The grounds are well kept; great pool/hot tub areq. Very nice BBQ areas!!

Just returned from another fantastic stay at Kamaole Sands. We enjoyed a lovely view of the ocean, fountains and gardens from the unit we rented in building 1. We’ve stayed in building 5 & 10 and those views have been great too! The unit we rented was clean, upgraded, had ac (without a timer) and was well cared for. We appreciated having a washer and dryer in our unit as well as a full kitchen to save on dining out every meal. There are nice BBQ’s for guests to use in the central courtyard. My favorite bonus of staying at Kamaole Sands is the free live music and hula on Wednesday afternoons. Hawaiian musician, Anthony Pfluke, is outstanding! Other property amenities include: pool, hot tub, tennis courts, pickleball courts, and gym. Parking is ample & free. Each condo is privately owned, so furnishings & ac (or lack thereof) varies. Condos can be rented through a variety of property managers as well as Airbnb, VRBO, etc. Over the years we have used PMI Maui, VRBO & vacation-Maui.net and have been happy with each of our experiences! Family that we traveled with rented through Castle and had an unfortunate experiences with damaged appliances and a refrigerator that quit working (per staff, Castle knew the fridge was having problems and rented the unit anyway!) Having been in 5 different units over the years that Castle managed, I probably won’t ever book through them. Overall, Kamaole Sands is a beautifully landscaped complex that is well taken care of & undergoing more upgrades! The tennis & pickleball courts have been resurfaced and new BBQs installed . Beautiful new security gates were being put in during our stay. Kamaole Sands is across the street from the Kamaole 3 park & beach, staffed by lifeguards. There’s a fantastic beach walk across the street along the coastline that leads south to Wailea. Restaurants are within walking distance, though a car is handy for staying in Kihei. TIPS FOR BOOKING: I prefer to select the individual unit we rent. Things I look for: view, location (I prefer the inner courtyard buildings 1,2,3,5,6, and 10, air conditioning in both the living area and bedroom(s) without timers (some owners install timers due to the high power cost), upgrades and reviews. I also look at cancellation policies. If a unit is listed on VRBO or Airbnb and shows a property manager, by booking directly through the property manager’s website often there is a savings.

We stayed with family here and had a nice time. We enjoyed the BBQs, pickleball and accommodations. But what was a real treat was the hula on Wednesday. Four of us went up for the lesson! We had a great time. This hula lesson was a highlight of staying at Kamaole Sands.

let me start by saying that in what i believe was the 24th trip my wife and i have taken to the islands over the years (almost always in condos) , this could very well be in the top 2 or 3 properties out of them all. the grounds are a beautifully kept tropical oasis right accross from Kam 3 beach. Kam 3 has both nice sandy areas as well as some rocky areas on ether end which provides some snorkeling opportunities and the occasional turtle joining you for a swim. eveything around the property was spotless and stayed that way over the 12 days we were there. the unit was very clean and well appointed with most any kitchen item you may need and the appliances seemed relatively new with everthing working perfectly. the room also had a nice boogey board, beach towels and umbrella that all came in handy accross the street. the bathrooms (yep 2 of them) had nicely tiled showers as well as soap, shampoo and lotion in both. the unit was a bit larger that i expected with a small 3rd floor patio overlooking the beautiful grounds and even had a peak at the ocean if you positoned yourself just right. the pool area had 2 hot tubs, a seperate kid pool and a small gym with a very nice bathroom/shower area. remember, each unit here is different, so 7-308 is the unit i am reviewing. we would DEFINITELY stay here again. i should aslo mention that the host was a delight to deal with. thanks for that.
