Kohea Kai Hotel Maui in Kihei

Small room, cute spot with room for improvement, and is NOT on the beach as advertised, it's accrossed the street

It was ok. Our original flight was cancelled so we arrived a day late. Apparently we checked in the night before? so we didnt have a room ready when we arrived at midnight and had to wait. Once in room, it was spacious but lacking a few things. For example no couch, table or even chairs to sit at. There was a small desk with a rikety office chair that had a screw petruding the seat. Even our deck had chairs but no side table, had to put everything on ground or sit on our bed. Next night tried using the hottub but was told it was out of order which was not true. Certain staff just weren't shown where the timer was to turn it on. Other facilities like the pool and garden patio were great but their pictures are deceiving because no where is there beach access like they show. You have to physically cross a main road to get to the beach and there are no chairs or tables to sit at. I will say the staff were fantastic and the location was great! Just a couple things that would have made it better!

Room was ready for refurbishment, staff moderately helpful, no cleaning service for 3 days, insects in the room

Rooms were an okay budget option, with a bunch of bad design choices (gigantic closet with 4 hangers, no door, and no drawers for clothes; walk in shower that is obviously letting water out around the sides and damaging the surround). After a few years living in HI, I had my first roach on pillow experience, but staff handled it well and relocated us. There are only a handful of restaurants within walking distance, so a car is necessary if you want to do more than lay on the beach. Very quiet area, lovely property, but not the experience I was expecting based on reviews I read.
