    parking limitations
    noise issues
    pool problems

    The location of Kohea Kai Hotel Maui is fantastic, just across the street from the beach. I found the bed incredibly comfortable, perfect for a good night's sleep. The room had a clean and updated feel that caught me pleasantly by surprise. Access to free beach towels and chairs really added to my beach experience. I enjoyed the shower, it was spacious and refreshing. Staff were friendly and offered helpful tips about local attractions. Key drawback was the parking situation. it felt tight and limited. The pool area looked like it could use some cleaning and maintenance—a bit disheartening. Additionally, I felt the resort fees for beach amenities were excessive. The room had a few maintenance issues, like the grout needing fixing. Noise between rooms was noticeable, which affected my peace at times. Overall, a blend of lovely amenities and some areas needing attention.

    It was a decent pick for a short break in Kihei that offered fair value for money. The room was clean, which I appreciated. Make sure to check the parking situation. it's pretty tight here.

    The Junior Suite was fantastic! It was spacious with a cozy living area, and the bed was so comfortable. I loved having the furnished lanai to enjoy my morning coffee while gazing at the lovely garden view. The staff were super friendly and always ready to help.

    The parking situation was a bit tight.

    Great stay near the beach!

    We had a nice time here! The beach is super close, just across a busy street. We stayed in a suite with a kitchen, which was awesome for cooking some meals. Just a heads up, we had to grab some kitchen stuff like a cutting board and a knife because they weren't in the room. Super friendly staff too!

    The stay was pleasant overall, with a comfortable bed and a clean, spacious room. The shower was excellent, and the free availability of beach towels and chairs enhanced my seaside experience. The friendly staff also played a key role in making my stay enjoyable, providing helpful assistance when needed.

    Some noise from neighboring rooms was noticeable.

    wear and tear
    poor swimming beach

    The location offers easy access to a nearby beach, though swimming isn’t ideal due to the water quality. The rooms are clean, spacious, and well-maintained, with extraordinarily comfortable beds and soft pillows. However, the hotel shows signs of wear in some areas and feels a bit overpriced for what it offers. Enjoyed the free Kona coffee and variety of snacks available.

    Our stay was enjoyable, the staff was super friendly. They greeted us with warm smiles and made sure our kids felt right at home with fun snacks at breakfast.

    It wasn't exactly cheap, but you get what you pay for.

    non-functional pool
    tight parking

    The location is quite convenient for getting around, with the beach just a short walk away. The room was spacious and clean, and I particularly enjoyed the comfortable bed and soft pillows. The free beach towels and chairs were a nice touch, making it easy to spend the day by the ocean. However, the pool area was not in use during my stay, which was a bit disappointing.
