9-1 Oceanfront

We recently stayed in 9-1 over the July 4th holiday. 9-1 is a great rental with plenty of space for our group of 8. The beds were comfy and the kitchen was well stocked. The bathrooms were updated and had nice fixtures. The grassy area behind the house was nice and seemed to be the place residents used most for direct beach access. The beach was very rocky in July - fine for playing in the water but not an ideal beach for relaxing and playing in the sand for littles. I would definitely recommend this rental. They had a couple beach chairs and umbrellas to use as well. Things that I would address if I owned the home: the air filter needs to be replaced, see why the two smaller bedrooms don’t seem to cool like the rest of the house, install bathroom fans to avoid having to opening the window and let out the AC, install more towel hooks in the bathrooms.

This property was ideal for our family's staycation. All we needed was our clothes and food to cook/eat. All other amenities were amply provided. The location could not have been better, steps away from ocean front, pool and playground just across the street from unit, Lahaina town just a shot drive away and a grassy front yard where grandsons could safely play. This 4 bedroom three bath property is well maintained, clean, and spacious for our ohana of 6 adults and 2 children. APVR provided excellent communication for preparing us for the arrival and departure procedures. We did not encounter any problems during our 3 night stay therefore we did not have to contact APVR for assistance. One minor oversight was each shower/tub was given hand soap instead of body soap to use. Fortunately each family took their own body wash. Our overall experience was excellent...great weather, excellent accommodations, convenient location and views. Thank you for permitting our ohana to use your property.

This was a wonderful escape from the Spring Break travelers. We loved having a quiet place to return after a busy beach day. Beautiful and serene!

We loved this unit, there were 8 of us and it was perfect! View was beautiful, house was beautiful, kitchen was fully stocked. The outdoor seating was so nice. There is alot of foot traffic do to the beach access that is right there. We would stay again.

My wife, toddler, infant, and two sets of grandparents had a wonderful time here. The place easily accommodated everybody. There was no difficulties with noise between rooms. The unit was beautiful, well cleaned, and spacious. It opened up unto a beautiful lawn with the ocean and a small beach just beyond. There was surfing opportunities rights outside the back door. Having this green space was perfect for our young family. We would enjoy coffee on the lanai watching whales breaching just off the coast.

We loved our vacation here. Would recommend. Will come back.

We had the BEST family holiday here. We are a family of 8 that stayed here. 7 Adults and 1 child just under 2. We cannot say enough wonderful things about this rental as it perfectly met our family needs. We had the best time here! Oceanfront, clean, great floorplan, guard gated community, and incredible service. We had such a great experience throughout from booking, pre-arrival, check-in, and check-out. We will be back and would definitely recommend staying here!! Special thank you to Rick who was always available for anything we needed. Thank you to everyone for making this such a special holiday.

The description was as described and even better once we actually saw it. The unit was very clean and very well maintained. We received excellent and very speedy service with any question that we had. I would definitely recommend this to family and friends. We took in a variety of restaurants and activities in Lahaina and on the island itself. We love Maui! Our plan is to come back again with family and rent a few units! Its perfect as it is out of the way of the busyness that can happen on vacations. We loved that it was a gated community and had beautifully stunning grounds, so well maintained and three pools, a clubhouse, a small playground, tennis courts, couldn't ask for more. Thank you for such a positive experience.

We had a wonderful time in this condo during the week between Christmas and New Years.
It looks just like the pictures...beautifully redone. It had to have been renovated just his year. The furnishings and accessories are bright and brand new.
The condo is furnished with really nice accessories. I've never been in a rental that had Chicago cutlery in the kitchen.
The owners and their rep on the island were extremely helpful and took care of any concerns we had.
One thing I really liked was the location. It's only about a mile to Front Street and all the action of Lahaina.
Maui has a lot of traffic, but this condo is located south of town and all the big high-rises, so it's a lot more quiet.
If we did it again, I might have rented a scooter to run to town, since parking is the hardest thing in Lahaina.
Did I mention it's right on the sand? You walk out the patio and go a few feet to the beach. It's fun at 5 pm to sit outside and watch the sunset.
I'd rent here again in a heartbeat.

Amazing location and wonderfully updated place. Our only hiccup was the air conditioning went out the last 3-4 days of our stay and despite an attempt at fixing it, it was unable to be fixed during our stay.

We used the two chairs, beach towels and cooler provided to adventure to other beaches around the island.

Very nice and well supplied condo..with a million dollar view... just a couple blocks to downtown lahaina

My family recently stayed here for the Thanksgiving Holiday. The Unit is in an ideal location and the accommodations are first class. The unit was clean and well appointed. Right across from the sand. I would highly recommend staying here. This is our second time in this property and we will for sure book it again.

This was our second visit to this excellent rental home. The home is updated, clean, and spacious, stocked with every kitchen appliance you could want or need, and steps away from the beach. It is also conveniently located, just minutes away from Front Street. My son says this is his "favorite place in the world." We will absolutely return.

We were very happy with our stay at A Perfect Vacation Rental. It fit our needs very well! Having the beautiful grass area right outside our patio, and beach access right in front of that! No need to really go anywhere. A couple of us walked to town several times, but others felt the need to drive. Either way, it's very close, and we loved that. Surfing and swimming right in our front yard. We give this unit an A+!

Manager's Response

Great oceanfront unit! Walk or bike to historic Lahaina. A remodeled, clean unit with all the comforts needed for a great Maui getaway!

We absolutely loved our stay at 9-1!!! The grounds were gorgeous and peaceful and the condo was the perfect size for 3 couples and 2 babies. The condo was surprisingly baby proof with some outlet covers and no reachable decorations that my one year old could destroy which was a great relief to me. There was enough seating for all six adults to have a comfortable chair in the living room which was important to me. Dinners on the lanai were picture perfect. We used the adult pool and baby pool almost every day and it was so nice to have the baby pool so close! (But not so close you heard the screaming kids) We used the gym and tennis courts. The location is great on the south end of Lahaina. It is walkable but it is rather long in the hot sun and there is no sidewalk on Front St. from the Condo for baby strollers so driving with little ones would be a better option. The grass in front of the condo was wonderful for morning yoga and the babes to run around and we met so many great families watching the sunset in the evenings. When we needed more washcloths Rick was great and brought some new ones to us. I received a call checking in on us when we arrived and before we left to make sure the stay was wonderful. There was a big swell when we were there so we didn't use the small beach as it was too rough for us but it was great entertainment to watch the surfers and SUPers. The only complaints I have is the hefty credit card processing fee and a lack of enough beach supplies. I really feel that the fee should be built into the price for a rental of this price point and not tacked on at the end. I rented chairs, cooler, umbrella and beach tent from Maui on the Fly as they weren't sure what was left in the condo and I wanted to be prepared with the babies. There were plenty of beach towels though! Overall the Condo was A++ and I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Thank you so much for sharing this special place!

We had 4 adult couples and a 13month old stay for 9 nights in 9-2. The booking was extremely easy and whenever I had questions the group with APVR were wonderful with quick responses. They also helped with baby gear rental.
Very nice unit! My only heads up would be the beach in front is all rocks, no sand but the boogie boarding/surfing was awesome

Manager's Response

Our APVR was perfect! We had 8 family members stay in 4 bedroom unit 9-1. There was plenty enough space for all of us. The condo was in great condition and looked exactly like the on line photos. The view is beautiful! We had nightly dinners outside watching the spectacular sunset.
The beach which is footsteps away was perfect for boogey boarding and paddle surf boarding. The property was very well kept. The gated community is family orientated and was very quiet at night, which we appreciated. We would definitely go back again!

This is a great condo. Just a few paces from the beach and a perfect spot to watch the sunset every night fall behind the island Lanai. The condo is very clean and fully equipped. They even provided binoculars for viewing all the passing ships. We never ran out of hot water (using all 4 bedrooms) and all equipment operated flawlessly. Nice shaded parking for our rental car and simple swimming pools completed the outside. After a day of fun on the island, enjoy the lanai patio at sunset, for family dinners, grilling out or just a quite time.

Experience was very good. Rental is within a gated area; it accommodated well three couples and two young children. Location is beach-front with a nice wide grassy area before the beach. The beach is sand, not very wide, but perfectly safe for young children under adult supervision. In addition, one has access to three pools. One of the pools has a playground nearby. The gated area has much vegetation and is very well maintained. The only negative: we had difficulty with the freezer, been not able to set it up cold enough for ice cream.

We enjoyed our stay at 9-1 so very much. The home was fresh and clean. You can't do any better than this for location with the beach right out the back door! Lots of outside play area for the kids, pools were nicely maintained and enjoyable. It was also nice to be so close to Lahaina - just a nice jog or walk. Overall, this was one of our best family vacations.

The location was wonderful. The beach was a few feet from the house. The home itself was such high quality and had everything we needed. I would recommend this property and am glad we stayed there as it enhanced our vacation.

What a great place in a great location! Puamana is such a nice community that is well run and maintained. This property was remodeled nicely with all the needed amenities plus more. Our family of 6 had plenty of room and comfort. We cant wait to come back!!

Beautiful complex and newly updated unit. Perfect location with beach access. Went to sleep to the waves every night. Beautiful yard to just sit. Plenty of amenities. Pefect for 4 couples.

This house was exactly what we were looking for. There were eight of us visiting Maui and we all felt very comfortable in the home. It was very spacious and had all the amenities that one would need. Would definitely recommend and would stay here again.

WE OWN A PLACE IN PUAMANA AND USED 9-1 FOR SOME OF OUR FAMILY TO STAY IN OVER THANKSGIVING. THIS UNIT IS IN THE PERFECT LOCATION, RIGHT BY THE BEACH, AND IS TOTALLY NEW INSIDE. OUR FAMILY LOVED SITTING OUT ON THE LANAI. WHAT A WONDERFUL PLACE.

Our family of three couples and two children spent a lovely week in Lahaina. We body surfed, snorkeled, laughed, sunned, ate and played games.

I was with 3 other couples and the house was perfect! We would go there again in a heart beat! Probably the best equipped vacation rental that we have stayed at. Great location to downtown Lahaina and the view from the Lanai is as advertised with surfing and SUP right off the shore!

Simply amazing!! This was the perfect spot for our family of 7. Location is amazing and the unit itself is everything you would want for a relaxing get away. Perfect central location for exploring Maui. The unit itself is so great, some days we found it hard to get motivated to go anywhere but our backyard! Sunset every night right from our lanai. Not one complaint. We will dream of coming back one day!

What a fabulous setting to celebrate our 40th wedding anniversary with our children and grandchildren! We felt right at home in the Puamana community and our spacious oceanfront beach house exceeded our expectations. The house was neat and clean and beautifully decorated. The kitchen appliances, cookware and dinnerware were top-notch, including everything we needed. We loved the open floor plan from kitchen to living room to the outdoor dining area on the lanai, all with a pristine view of the ocean. The expansive yard was the perfect place for the kids to romp and play and the swimming pool was just a short walk away. And there is no better place to pull up your lawn chair to watch the see the setting sun. The location was the best! Each day, our family enjoyed taking a walk down the oceanfront to access the beach area for sandcastle building, playing in the water and watching the surfers. Another favorite was riding bikes into Lahaina for some shopping. There is so much to explore on the island of Maui and nothing better than returning to this lovely beach house. Our rental representatives, Dave and Rick, were so friendly, gracious and accommodating to our needs. We loved everything about our stay and hope to have the opportunity to return.

We were delighted with Puamana and our condo in particular. There were six of us with plenty of room, beautiful access to the beach and blessed with perfect weather in early January. The location was great and the privacy afforded by our gated community was great.

Great location, wonderfully renovated, fully stocked and perfect for families!

Our family spends Christmas in Puamana every year and this unit is like home to us. The location is awesome, right by the beach access and close to the ocean pool and clubhouse. We learned that the new owners will be doing some upgrades in a few months which will make this place even better. We can't wait to come back next year.
