Wailea, HI 31 Apartments for Rent with Balconies

Located on Maui's southern coast, the community of Wailea is known primarily as a vacation destination for those seeking sun, sand and surf. It's a resort area that offers amenities like restaurants, shopping, championship golf courses and acres of beach. Wailea's coastline is especially attractive; so attractive, in fact, that in 1999 Stephen P. Leatherman, a professor at Florida International University whose interest in coastal areas has earned him the nickname "Dr. Beach," used criteria like sand softness and water temperature to declare that Wailea had "America's Best Beach." (Since then, other shorelines have taken over the "best beach" crown, but it's a safe bet that Wailea's coastal area remains just as desirable as it was in the days of Pokemon and Y2K).

Balconies are a coveted amenity for many renters looking for high-rise views and opportunities for fresh air. However, you should keep in mind that balconies often come with restrictions.

Before signing a lease, ask about how many people can be on the balcony at once. Also, ask about whether you’re allowed to store a bike or other items.

You’ll also want to know about any maintenance schedules. Using your balcony as storage could result in fines and intervention from your property management.

Keep in mind that not all balconies are created equally. You may discover the views of the parking area are less than optimal or reduce your overall privacy.

Balconies can also get messy with debris, foliage, dirt, and pollen depending on your location. Renters are typically responsible for any clean-up and basic balcony upkeep.

Regardless of the issues to keep in mind, balconies are usually a big win for Wailea renters. Ask about apartments on higher floors for the best views.
