Visitor occupancy in Wailea vacation condos was soft overall in April, barely eclipsing 50%. Meanwhile the three units we manage at the Palms absolutely crushed it, with an aggregate 85% occupancy rate for April. Vacation-Maui.net is a smaller (70 total units), service-oriented management service, and we believe our more than 3,600 5-star reviews sets units we manage apart.
That begins with owner pride, and the owners of Units 703, 705, and 801 are similar: they want their units to reflect their pride of ownership. With our vigilance, they keep their units meticulously maintained. Our management success begins with a great product, and we thank them!
If your occupancy figures didn’t match ours, or if you’re feeling that your unit is lacking a little love from your current management services, let’s talk! Call or email me any time: Kevin Spaise, (808) 344-0624, [email protected].
Here’s how we present our units, across nine platforms:
Vacation-Maui.net: Palms at Wailea 703 in South Maui | Vacation Maui
Vacation-Maui.net: Palms at Wailea 705 in South Maui | Vacation Maui
Vacation-Maui.net: Palms at Wailea 801 in South Maui | Vacation Maui
Our occupancy has been through the roof, even through the recently challenging times. Unit 703 was occupied 86% of the time, while units 703 and 801 averaged 92%. Rates for 703 and 705 averaged around $535 per night with a peak of $650, while unit 801, the 1-bedroom, rented at $300-339 per night.
Our rates were down over 2023 by approximately 10% (island rates as a whole were down 23%) and our occupancy was approximately 20% higher than other management companies at comparable complexes. We attribute this to great reviews, aggressive marketing, and excellent guest service.
We’re a low-volume management service (Vacation-Maui.net), with just 70 units under management, and we’re intentionally small. Our team is committed to providing the ultimate guest experience, and with more than 4,000 reviews and a 4.85+ overall average across all of our properties, we’re succeeding. Our unit care is on point. We’re locally based and our ownership is very hands-on.
