We really enjoyed our vacation on Maui. Your condo is absolutely wonderful - we spent a lot of time sitting out on the lanai watching the world go by. The sunrises and sunsets were amazing and it was so good to see the turtles coming to the sea wall every day. We found the condo to be really clean and very well equipped and we appreciated the welcome pack when we arrived. It was also great to have the selection of books! We really want to go back to Maui at some point and would love to stay in your condo again next time.

Our first trip to KR was in the early 80’s.  So nice to see the turtles in the reef and watch the whales.  Whale watching still rules here on West Maui. Nice upgrades/ Remodel to the kitchen and bathroom.  Thanks for sharing. Hope to return soon.

This is our 3d or 4th visit to KR317.  We love it.  Turtles out front again, eagle rays jumping, fantastic.  Love the people at Kahana Reef.  Hard to go back to Alaska.  Nice flat screen TV and wi fi is  handy for smart phones. Thanks again for sharing your condo with us. Hope to be back again soon. Robinson & Robert October 09, 2010 Alaska     We have been staying here for seven days. I really love KR and  Maui.  We are seeing whales every day.  Quite amazing.  The condo is so bright and clean.  It feels very calming.  Until next time.

We have had another lovely trip to Maui and again wish to express our appreciation to Dave and Di for their thoughtfully appointed and beautiful condo.  We quickly Fall into our preferred rhythm of reading, napping, swimming, eating, snorkeling, walking and grappling with the decision of what to have for dinner. We look forward to returning soon and in the meantime will cherish the peaceful beauty of West Maui and Kahana Reef 317.  Thank you again.

We are so happy to visit your condo again. Everything as wonderful as ever.  We watched the early morning turtles, the sunsets and windsurfers….such a great view from the condo and lanai.  We walked to the farmer’s each morning, swam, read and relaxed.  We’ll be back.

Dear Di and Dave,  We thoroughly had a wonderful relaxing and enjoyable vacation at your condo. It is so nicely decorated and so well kept. We would never hesitate to recommend your condo to our friends.We spent many hours each morning lounging on the Lanai, watching the whales and listening to the bird chatter from the tree adjacent to your condo. At night, we saw many exceptional sunsets.   Hopefully, we can arrange to visit your condo again next year.

This is our third visit in your perfect condo right on the water. All we can see looking out from the kitchen is ocean. It is like being on a cruise ship.  We have spent many a peaceful hour sitting on the lanai, just watching the waves and ever-changing views of Molokai.

We visited to celebrate my graduation from nursing school.  This past four years was intense and stressful.  We so enjoy looking at the ocean from the lanai.  Your condo is very clean and we love how quiet it is.  We celebrated New Year's eve at Roy's for dinner and on the condo lanai with the sound of the waves and the fireworks.  Awesome!!!   We hope to come back to KR317. It was wonderful.

What can we say? The condo is everything it was supposed to be and then some. The view.......speechless!!!! Nothing is better than having breakfast on the lanai while watching the whales put on a show. This condo felt like home and it is more than clean, more than neat and has made us very happy. Thank you.

Hello!
Our stay was wonderful and we want to thank you so much for allowing us to visit your condo. The weather was beautiful everyday and sleeping in the bedroom with the nightly breeze and the sound of the waves crashing was heavenly. Thank you again for making our Honeymoon so comfortable. We hope to stay again soon.

Hi Di and Dave,
Just wanted to let you know how much we loved your condo. From reading through the guest book it sounds like you did a remodel not that long ago and what a treat for us. The surf was up while we were there so we had quite a show with the waves crashing against the bulkhead. They sometimes reached the branches in the tree. Watching the whales from the lanai was one of our favorite things to do. I especially appreciated the nice clean, fresh smelling bathroom linens. Thanks for advertising the real deal.

This was just great. We’ve been to Maui many times before, and stayed in condos that cost us two to three times as much (or more), but never had a better Maui vacation than this one. Your unit is lovely – more spacious than most of the others, bright and immaculately clean. Thanks Dave and Di for sharing your beautiful condo and ideal location. We loved every minute.

Standing in the kitchen of your lovely condo was like being on a cruise ship. All we could see out of the large sliding glass door was ocean. Awesome. Thank you for keeping your home so beautiful and clean. It was stocked with everything we possibly needed and more.

This vacation and spending time in your condo will go down as one of the best in my life time. This wonderful “home base” so close to the water and all you could ever need on the Island was perfect. The waves, the surf, the rainbows were heavenly. I couldn't have asked for more, or for a better place to call home during a fabulous week on Maui.

We had a wonderful vacation and thoroughly enjoyed our stay in your condo. It was very comfortable and well outfitted. After about two hours we felt we were at home. There was an open house upstairs in a non corner unit. It was mostly original (circa 1973) with no upgrades. You did an awesome remodel and your web photos were right on.

We will certainly recommend it to our friends and family.

We arrived yesterday at your unit and are sitting on the lanai having coffee watching the sunrise. What a life!! Your condo is beautiful and we are so glad to be here. You guys did a great job upgrading 317. We have stayed in a number of Kahana Reef units and 317 is the best! Mahalo and aloha,

Hi Di and Dave. Thank you so much for the use of your condo. Never having been to Hawaii, one never knows what to expect but the trip was beyond our expectations. Your condo played a major role in making our first trip to Maui very special. As my wife wrote in your guest book, our entertainment for the week was sitting and having coffee on your lanai and watching the mother whales teach their calves breaching, head slams, and all of the things whales do.

I think the location of Kahana Reef can't be beat and we are already planning when in 2008 we might be able to repeat the trip and do less running around and more just "smelling the roses."  Thanks again.

I am 79, so a whole day driving around until my night flight would have been very hard on me, especially since we would not get home for 24 hours. I would sincerely like to thank you for allowing us to stay late on our departure day. Your condo is beautiful....so much more pleasant that the one my husband and I stayed in before. We had a wonderful time, so thank you again.

Aloha from Maui. Your condo is wonderful. The remodel is wonderful, very clean, modern and the BEST at Kahana Reef. I walked by many at night and saw outdated units. You and Dave should be happy.

Our stay this last week in your condo has been PERFECT! We couldn't imagine anything more we would want. The condo is immaculate and the views are the very best we've seen anywhere on the island. I have already recommended your condo to my in-laws and will to everyone I talk to who is thinking about coming to Maui. We will also make this trip again next year...I can't wait! Thank you so much.

Aloha Di and Dave:
We are back at home and wanted to say MAHALO for the condo improvements. We were so excited to be the first to stay in your condo after the remodel. The kitchen is beautiful. I could cook and not miss a bit of the awesome ocean view. The bathroom was nice before, but I was floored at how much nicer it is now. We look forward to our trip back every year and staying at Kahana Reef 317. Your pride in ownership is evident as every year passes, and I'm still surprised at the improvements. Until next year..... Mahalo

We just got home this morning and I wanted to provide some feedback on KR317.  It is very simple......WE LOVED IT!!!!  I must admit that I was concerned about renting a unit from the Internet sight unseen, but it  was fantastic. The condo was clean, tidy, well decorated and absolutely perfect in every way.  The bedroom was a perfect temperature at night, the view from the lanai was fabulous.  We hope to stay there again. Thank you.

We want to extend our thanks for your wonderful hospitality. Although you have been renting out your lovely condo to many guests (as we could see from the guest book) you treated us like we were your first. We really feel grateful to have found you and Kahana Reef 317, out of all the places on Maui. Thanks again and we will be in touch for our next visit to Maui. Best regards

We just wanted to thank you for sharing your condo with us on our recent visit to Maui. We found the unit very clean and well equipped with everything that we needed.  We really enjoyed sitting on the lanai in the morning sipping Kona coffee and watching for whale spouts.  We had some friends over for a cookout one night and they all had positive comments about your wonderful condo.

The condo was awesome...just like your website. The views off the lanai were so soothing, especially with coffee in the morning. It was so calming to the eyes and soul. We slept great with the sounds of the ocean. The condo is very clean and modern. We enjoyed having access to beach mats and a cooler. Thanks for letting us play here. When I return, we will surely look you up again. Mahalo

We really, really enjoyed our stay at your condo. This view, the setting are absolutely spectacular. I can't even begin to put into words the magic your place carries. We came to Maui for the first time to celebrate our 25th Anniversary. I loved the Farmer's Market, whale watching from your lanai and the sheer sense of "being" your place generates. This vacation in paradise is truly a dream come true. We will definitely come back to your condo in the near future.

We arrived after dark and went to bed with the sound of the waves crashing. We were up early and were amazed at just how beautiful the view was as the sun came up. The views on your website are good, but in person it is so much better. The sound of the ocean is so wonderful. It would make an appealing addition to your website. Thanks for giving us such a great first impression of Maui.

Hi Dianne-
Kim and I thoroughly enjoyed our trip, and your condo unit proved to be the perfect launching pad for all of our activities!

We really appreciated all of the extra touches that you and Dave clearly go to ... including your VHS video library, the updating you mentioned that you have done on the unit, and your consideration of the smallest, yet important touches. (e.g., extra wine glasses, MP3 player, and a garlic press!) More importantly, we spent several evenings on the lanai star-gazing, and enjoying the waves washing up almost directly beneath the deck.

We are now thinking about making another visit in June.
Thanks again Dave and Dianne!

Thank you so much for sharing your condo with me and my girlfriends. We had an absolutely wonderful time. Your condo was clean, spacious and we loved all the shelves in the remodeled bathroom for our stuff. I loved the tea kettle. The weather was the best ever in the 6 years we've been taking this golf trip. Everyone wants to go back again next year. As soon as we have our dates, we'll be in touch and hopefully your condo will be available again. Thanks again.Best regards,

My family and I would like to thank you for allowing us to stay at your Kahana Reef #317 condo. The room was every bit (and more) what your website said it was going to be. The new tile floors and bathroom looked really good. The view was amazing and refreshing.
I don't think we'll stay in any other area in Maui. Kahana has everything and is very close to all the places one would want to go to often - like Kapalua, Kanaapali, and Lahaina. Honokowai which has a Farmer's Market (amazing fruits, veggies, and local goodies) is also right across from a cute little beach park which my kids enjoyed.

We really enjoyed our stay in Condo 317 at Kahana Reef. The condo is well decorated, clean, cheery, and comfortable. It is very well equipped and had every accessory that we needed during our entire stay. 

We sat on the lanai every evening and watch 10's of whales cavorting in the surf just beyond the reef.  During the day (when we were not sightseeing on beautiful Maui) I often snorkeled on the reef and observed many, many types of reef fish. On one occasion we had a seal swim in to the seawall. It was such a surprise that even the Hawaiian fishing family who live on the North side of the condo ran for their cameras.

We certainly hope to return to Kahana Reef and would highly recommend Unit 317 and particularly the treatment we received from Dave and Dianne. Thank you, again!

What a great place. Kahana Reef is centrally located and we have enjoyed many of the wonderful features of Western Maui. The view from your lanai is as good as anywhere on the Island. l Hope future visitors enjoy themselves as much as we did. Ken and Sandy Aptos, CA 7/7/02
This was a beautiful condo….clean, quiet and the view was magnificent. Very much enjoyed this trip and I would love to come back again soon. Carol and Hank 6/30/02
Many thanks for our vacation in our condo. We have been so comfortable here. It has felt like home and we easily imagine staying here for the rest of the year. Each day here seemed to bring more amazing snorkeling, swimming and beaches. This trip we saw the green flash at sunset for the first time. Our family is refreshed and happy.
