cute place that had the classic Maui retro’s theme. NO air conditioning which is on the listing but should be made more apparent given Maui weather is humid and hot. the upstairs was impossible to sleep in, had to sleep on the couch from the heat.
overall location is wonderful and Mahaina Surf is great place to stay if you have a family… not the place to be if you are a couple. the pool is really only for children, you can’t swim enjoyably as an adult and there is no beach within walking distance. a few around if you can uber/have a car.
well stocked home with grill outside. TV didn’t work but you’re not in Maui to use technology anyways.
check in was rough. we never got an email with the room number or the door code. had to get in touch with Air BB support for help because Vacasa was out of office/not replying. also no specification for check out time.
at sun down/sun rise.. if you walk a bit north past the pool, there’s Hanu turtles resting along the shore. a beautiful experience that made the stay so memorable.
