Great location and beach

Overall great stay. Location is great. Condo was stocked for our arrival. Lots of spices for cooking, great beach chairs as well. The bed was super comfortable after long days on the beach or walks and hikes. Condo is a bit dated, but who goes to Maui to stay in a condo. Communication with host was great. Would definitely stay at this resort again.

Well equipped condo for two

The condo had everything we needed for a nice beach vacation. Chairs, umbrellas, cooler, etc. Communication with the owner was great and she was very flexible on check in and check out timing. The only thing we were disappointed in was that the beach wasn't great for swimming, it's on a stretch of mud flats.

The absolute best time ever!

Sugar Beach exceeded our expectations! Our room was impeccably clean and incredibly comfortable. The room provided everything we needed for both beach days and relaxing poolside. We cherished our morning walks along the beach and were captivated by the breathtaking sunsets enjoyed during our evening meals. Our entire family had a truly memorable experience and we eagerly anticipate the opportunity to return someday."

Sugar Beach Resort

We love the location of sugar beach resort. We have stayed at this resort 2 times and have always been happy with our decision. This particular condo has road noise, but we expected it based on its location within the resort. I won’t say this resort is “fancy” but it has all the qualities (beachfront, pool, hot tub) for a great vacation. Bonus, is Dina’s sandwich shop, amazing Rueben sandwich!

Honeymoon stay Sugar Beach

Great place, nice beach access, the facility and pool were very accessible. Unfortunately the wind tunnel effect of the sugar beach resort made it very difficult to enjoy in the afternoon. Blowing hats, books and flip flops away while trying to enjoy the pool. Thats the only reason we wouldn’t stay there again

Perfect Little Getaway

Everything was very nice. We really enjoyed sitting on the lanai at night and looking at the ocean. You could even see Molokini and views of Haleakala in the morning colors were beautiful above the other building. Early morning walks on the beach were a great way to start the day. We had so much fun we never made it to the pool. We would definitely stay here again.
