You wont find a better view or location. We sat on the lanai every morning looking down on the waves and the frequent turtles below. The ocean view stretches to the horizon and the sun sets into the water between Lanai and Molokai. The condo is just steps from the north end of the boardwalk where you can walk for several miles, all the way to the far end of Kaanapali beyond Whalers Village. There are many restaurants along the way, as well as access to the beach in many places.
Knowing that the Mahana is an older building, we overlooked some of the well-used elements in the condo. It was disappointing that the sliding door from the master bedroom couldn't be opened, but the owner explained in previous reviews that it takes time to get things repaired on the island. The cabinets are in rough shape, but again, this is an older building. The only thing we had a problem with was the cleanliness, particularly when there are to be extra cleaning measures during Covid. The beautiful rug was very dirty, and there were tortilla chips under the couch from previous renters. One of us picked up a towel the first evening, and we were covered in about a cup of sand. Floors and light switches were very dirty, but it was nothing we couldn't fix with a few Lysol wipes. One of the bathroom sinks had an army of ants. I also realize that the owner has to trust the cleaning crew to do their job from a distance and the only way he can know how they are doing is from renter's reviews.
We mostly used the condo for sleeping, and I must say, the beds are very comfortable. It was a good stay, and I would gladly rent again for the view and the good night's sleep.
