Guidance shaped by experience & Support beyond the purchase

Vacation rental ownership on Maui requires more than just the right property. It involves understanding the market, guest expectations, and the ongoing realities of managing a home on island.

My husband and I grew up in West Maui and live nearby, in Kahana and purchased Kaanapali Shores 318 in 2019 with the goal of providing an amazing experience! Our second vacation rental, Kahana Villa F507 was purchased in 2022. A combined 55 years of experience in hospitality, we are confident our expertise will ensure the best time on Maui!

Providing a clean unit with everything in working order and a desire to share local knowledge are the ultimate goals!

  • “We have traveled a lot and worked with many vacation rental agents. Kelly is a 5+ star agent and owner. Her condo is beautiful and well maintained. We enjoyed our meals on the lanai every day with its ocean view.”

  • "My family has visited Maui on three separate occasions, and this was by far the nicest rental we have stayed in. The air conditioning worked flawlessly, the views were outstanding, and Captain Jack’s was just a three‑minute walk from the property.The property managers were absolutely exceptional and went above and beyond to ensure our stay was enjoyable and seamless.I genuinely have no negative feedback regarding our experience. If you are looking for a rental on the west side of Maui, this property is an excellent choice."

  • "Kelly is by far the best hostess we have had at any vacation rental in our history of travel. She was able to accommodate a late checkout, gave local recommendations, provided snacks, sent back a forgotten clothing item, and provided support throughout our stay. When we return to Maui, I will only stay in one of Kelly's properties! Five stars!"
