What Our Guests Love Most About Staying With Us

Posted on: December 30, 2025

At Wailea Ekahi Village, the best way to understand what makes a stay truly special is to hear it directly from our guests. From glowing Google reviews to heartfelt Facebook recommendations, visitors consistently share what makes their time here unforgettable, and why they return year after year.

Here’s what they love most about staying with us.

1. Located Just Steps From Paradise

Guests consistently praise our prime location on Keawakapu Beach, with its gentle waves, golden sand, and sunsets that become a nightly ritual. It’s the perfect backdrop for a relaxing getaway, and ideal for sun, snorkeling and morning strolls.

“Literally just steps to the beach.”
We walked through the pool area and were on the sand in moments. Being so close was the best part — we were out there every day.

Jennifer H., Unit 08A

“Five minutes or less to the beach and everything nearby.”
Groceries, restaurants, and the airport were easy; we even saw sea turtles cruising the shoreline. All the stars! I can’t wait to return.

Laura R., Unit 19D

“Direct beach access and a fantastic location.”
Our grandson loved the easy walk to the ocean and main pool; we’re already planning our return.

2. Tons of Space to Unwind

Unlike traditional hotels, our individually owned condos offer full kitchens, private lanais, and plenty of space to unwind. It’s a true home base while exploring Maui, and that comfort and convenience make all the difference.

“Well‑appointed and family‑friendly.”
Comfortable furniture, a fully equipped kitchen, abundant toiletries, and a clever pull‑down bunk bed that beat a sofa sleeper for my daughter.

Erica H., Unit 11E

“High‑end touches that made a difference.”
Sub‑Zero fridge, great cookware, fresh coffee beans, and gorgeous, newly remodeled bathrooms, plus a quiet pool right below the condo.

Beverly B., Unit 11E

“Room for our group of six.”
Recently updated, beautifully maintained, and plenty of space to spread out. The vacation was ideal for all the events on the island from Lahaina and Kapalua to Road to Hana and Haleakala.

Chance M., Unit 20A

3. Lush, Peaceful Grounds

Across 34 acres of gardens, four quiet swimming pools, and our oceanfront pavilion, Wailea Ekahi offers a tranquil escape. Guests often mention how serene and beautifully maintained the property is.

“A sensory retreat.”
Fragrant flowers, birdsong, green lawns, and ocean views. We loved the quiet pool, the beachfront pavilion, and sunset gatherings on the lawn.

We’ve stayed three times and it never disappoints. Every detail is thought through for families and fun memories.

6. Community and Rituals (On Your Terms)

There’s a friendly rhythm here: sunset gatherings on the lawn, casual chats at the pavilion, birdsong at sunrise. If you want to connect, it’s easy. If you prefer solitude, you’ll have plenty of peaceful space.

“Sunsets on the lawn and pavilion time.”
We loved the evening ritual on the grass, quiet pool breaks, and getting to know friendly neighbors.
