The location of this condo was great, very central part of west Maui; however, the accommodations and amenities left a bit to be desired.
The photos of his place do not entirely capture what it was like, and do not truly portray the oldness of the place and 99% of the things in it. Almost EVERY single thing in the apartment was mediocre at best: old furniture, old kitchen equipment, old towels/linens, old dilapidated beach chairs, the bare minimum of everything. Motel 6 has newer things than this place does.
We were disappointed when we arrived, and sent a POLITE email, to ask for CLEAN, UNSTAINED, NEWER towels, and extra fans because the ceiling fans were very low functioning, and the place was unbearably hot and musty when we arrived. BASIC accommodations for a tropical rental are clean (beach) towels, and proper working fans for ventilation. Our host responded promptly, with no apology to our discontent mind you, but cc'd the complex manager to come by the next day. The staff at the condo complex was very nice, and acknowledged our call out re: the old, dirty towels. They brought us an extra fan, and we were appreciative. The manager there is lovely; however, she is not our host, who was collecting our $$. A few days into our stay, one of the ceiling fans stopped working, so we emailed our host at 9:40 pm to, again, POLITELY ask when it could be fixed. He once again promptly responded, and 5 mins later, we realized we had accidentally unplugged the fan as it was next to a bedside table. OOPS, our bad:)
We booked the week so there was nothing we could do about the fact that we had already (over) paid, and were in beautiful Maui, so we made the best of it. We feel we wayyyyyyy overpaid for what we got.

While we can't go into detail here about a recent incident with this host, in summary, the last couple weeks (email exchanges, etc.) have been less than ideal and borderline harassment. That's all we're going to say about that. While we managed to have a lovely week in Maui, we definitely don't have any plans to stay at this particular unit again.
