I guess there are a lot of balconies facing the ocean at Maui's West coast, but to me this one was very special. Very few people around, it's just the ocean and you, and at the right time of the year you can spot the whales from your bed. Enjoy sunset with a drink - it's different every day; not the drink, that is. John's apartment has everything you need with its big and airy room, and sleeping with open doors to the sound of the waves is a wonderful thing. You are better off with a car, because it's not next to everything, but even without a car (I had none) it works pretty well with bus stops nearby. Don't miss out to have dinner or drink at Dollie's Cafe and Pub, a 5 minute walk away. Sure, it's not a budget place, but nothing on Maui is. I loved every minute at this peaceful apartment and can absolutely recommend it to people who are looking for tranquil serenity
