Great Location- Perfect with a few extra touches
Kihei, and specifically Kihei Akahi is in the perfect location (for Kam beaches & all the restaurants/stores). Then this unit is prime at the resort! The elevator was usually fast (but we used nearby stairs for workout). Loved the chairs, umbrella, and coolers. With just a few details addressed, it could easily be a 5-star location: Pillows-We were only furnished with 4 very flat, plastic covered (the pillowcase slid off every night) bed pillows, totally inadequate for side sleepers. When I inquired about additional/better pillows we were just told that was "standard". Also, the bed is lacking padding for side-sleepers. AC-We are very energy conscious but had to run the AC unit all the time and it barely kept up. It may be powerful but the sun beats in all afternoon and the curtains don't fully cover the west facing door so it heats up if you don't run it all day. Opening the door in the evening is the best way to cool the unit. Wi-fi is NOT "Super-fast high speed". We had serious slow downs and interruptions several times. Missing items-I brought whole bean coffee and unit missed a grinder as stated (perhaps taken or broken?). Thankfully, I bought ground coffee as a gift at Costco that we could use. We suggest having a clock in the unit (especially bedside) as had to find a phone to know the time. More hangers in the closet and hooks would be great to hang up wet towels, swimsuits, and clothing. I was struggling to find places that wouldn't damage wood furniture.

Everything you could ever need
The condo was located in the heart of bustling Keihei. The Keihei Akahi is very nice, clean and beautiful. The condo had the best ocean view. It was clean, modern and very well appointed. Had everthing we didnt even know we needed for the beach! Chairs, umbrella, snorkeling gear, coolers, beach towels. It was so beautiful and comfortable.so many flowers and trees, the birds singing, the sound of the ocean, were just magical! The view was spectacular, the beach is right across the street, we didnt use it, but there are 2 swimming pools. Everyone who works and stays there are friendly. My daughter and I stayed there and we felt very blessed and thankful to have been able to call that home for a week! We'll definitely stay here again! Mahalo!awesome to have those things!

Perfect!
Mahalos to Suzi for the great accommodations of C601. Our oldest granddaughter and the newly graduated HS granddaughter shared this wonderfully cute unit and had a great time together. The view is killer! In C601 with our last evening as a family (10), we celebrated the gorgeous sunset with a toast to Maui and ‘ohana! Suzi is a very responsive owner and communicating with her is a joy. The Kihei Akahi is directly across the street from a nice beach and is located to many walkable shops and eateries. The property is lovely and has two pools, complete with BBQ’s. Enjoy Maui, along with this cute studio!

Just a short walk to the beach and restaurants
We enjoyed our stay in this condo which is a short walk to a lovely beach and many restaurants. The bus is also free to people over 55. The bed was comfortable. You should be aware that it is basically one room, but we found it spacious and comfortable. My husband left some things and the owner had them shipped to us which was very kind.
