Kihei Bay Surf 233 Overview

First Impressions

Walking into Kihei Bay Surf 233, you immediately get that laid-back Maui vibe — it’s not trying to be fancy, and honestly, that’s exactly what works about this place. This three-star condo feels like staying at a friend’s beach house rather than some sterile hotel, which I mean, is pretty much perfect when you’re in Kihei. The building has that classic Hawaiian low-rise feel, and you can actually hear the ocean from most spots around the property.

The Location Magic

Here’s the thing about Kihei Bay Surf’s location — it’s seriously impressive how close you are to everything that matters. You’re basically a two-minute walk to some of the best beach access on this side of the island, and I’m talking about those gorgeous stretches where locals actually hang out, not just tourist spots. The couples who stay here absolutely love it (they rate the location a solid 9.0), and I get why — there’s something romantic about being able to stroll to the beach for sunset without dealing with resort crowds. Plus, you’ve got solid dining options within walking distance, which saves you from having to drive everywhere.

The Space Itself

The room setup is what you’d expect from a well-maintained condo — it’s got that home-away-from-home feel with a full kitchen that actually works properly. I’ve stayed in places where the kitchenette is basically useless, but here you can legitimately cook if you want to save some money or just prefer eating in. The furnishings aren’t brand new, but everything’s clean and functional, and honestly, when you’re spending most of your time on the beach or exploring the island, you don’t need marble countertops.

What Makes It Work

The real charm of this place is how it lets you live like a local for a few days. You’re not stuck in some resort bubble — you can walk to the grocery store, grab coffee at the local spots, and actually experience what it’s like to be in this part of Maui. The property management keeps things running smoothly without being intrusive, and there’s parking right on-site, which trust me, is not something to take for granted around here. The pool area is nothing spectacular, but it’s perfect for cooling off between beach sessions.

Why Guests Love It

What keeps people coming back is that sweet spot between affordability and location — you’re getting prime Kihei access without paying resort prices. The recent guest ratings speak for themselves, especially that 9.0 location score, because honestly, location is everything when you’re trying to make the most of a Maui trip. You’ll save money on transportation, you’re close to some incredible snorkeling spots, and you can actually relax without feeling like you need to maximize every expensive resort amenity. It’s the kind of place where you can settle in and feel like you belong, even if you’re only there for a week.

Reviews of Kihei Bay Surf 233

  • Cole from Canada (8/10)

    Price. was a large space for 2 people. Beach chairs and close to the turtles 🐢 so many turtles .

  • Angela from Canada (8/10)

    Location was good, right opposite a nice little beach park, Kalepolepo
    Great pool and hot tub.

  • Kristin from United States (9/10)

    The location of the property was PERFECT. Food nearby, grocery stores, shops, really anything you could want and need with the vibe of a town. Great location. Central and close to everything, even the other sides of Maui. A quick walk to a beach right across the street for sunset viewing was very nice. So many beaches close by to choose from!

    Quiet property, which was nice too. We were only there at night to sleep, mostly. The property was stocked with everything we would need for making food, coffee, cooking, baking.. anything, even towels for the beach, though we had our own.

    The best thing – The staff! One little hiccup while we were staying there and WOW! The staff bent over backwards to help us fix the issue and accommodate us as well! What an amazing group of people and really made the stay that much better. They were/are lovely, so kind, and very nice.
