We have stayed here twice now, in unit D-104 both times. It is a very nice, updated unit and the owners are a pleasure to deal with. The pool and courtyard are great for kids, and everything you need is only a short walk away, including the beach and great restaurants (try Roy's, and Maui Taco). The supermarket is right next door, and the Azeka shopping plaza is just to the north. We definitely plan to come back again and again!

We stayed in C107. everything was perfect a/c worked, pool/hot tub was always clean, the beach across the street. Star market/ liquor store behind us and We made it to mass on sunday across the street-- Amen

I stayed in unit C103, I can't speak for all units.

Pros:
Fairly spacious for a 1 bedroom suite – nice sized living/dining area.
Furnished nicely.
Well supplied – towels, kitchen supplies, beach towels, beach chairs.
Nice pool/BBQ area.
Quiet area of town.
Adjacent to supermarket and 1 block from Azeka mall (which boasts one of Maui’s best restaurants – Stella Blues).
Clean unit, but I did slay a couple large cockroaches.
The rental agent picked me up from the airport and even gave me a mini-tour on the way to the condo.
Ample parking.
About 100 yards from the ocean but the beach is full of seaweed so you wouldn’t swim there.

Cons:
There is no ocean view. The lanai looks onto the street at a 90 degree angle from the ocean. If you turn and look towards the ocean, all you can see is the berm that is in front of the beach. If you stand up you can see a little sliver of the horizon above the berm – that’s your ocean view.
Not so quiet. If there’s nobody in the suite above you, the unit is quiet. But when there’s somebody above you, the sound of feet and chairs on the floor above is very noisy – a two year old running across the floor at 7am sounds like a freight train.
The A/C unit is fairly loud.
No Internet access but I was able to scoop an open low signal from a nearby source. But the signal wasn’t strong enough for my iPhone to pick it up.
Cell coverage is poor – calls are broken and dropped.
The wireless phone in the unit has a very noisy connection – almost impossible to use.
Long distance calls cannot be made OR received on the unit’s phone.
The beach nearby is full of seaweed and it’s stinky.
Can’t pay with a credit card which is fairly inconvenient.

We have stayed many times and always enjoyed the Kihei Garden Estates. This was the first time we had our three grandkids ages 9 and two 3 years olds. The stairs for the 2 bedroom with loft units are straight up to get in the unit and the loft stairs are even worse. Our 3 year olds fell down the stairs twice, broke the glass dining table. We were so frustrated we removes the glass inserts on the coffee and end tables, removed the glass doors on the entertainment center and took all the ceramic and breakable decorations and put them safely away. The loft was so hot we all slept downstairs. We love the condos but would get a ground floor unit with no glass furniture and no stairs when we go back. Great family pool (fence and locked for kids safety) hot tub and the outdoor grills were wonderful for pool side dinners. Overall we love this place, no bugs and the grounds and pool are cleaned every morning. There is lots of free on site parking and is a one minute walk to the beach. The location is ideal with a grocery store and mall a 2 minute walk and a quick drive to anywhere on the island.
