Our vacation at Kahana Villa was terrific. The description of the condo is accurate. The complex was right across the street from another condominium complex but walking around, getting to the beach, or taking a quick drive for groceries, coffee, exploring other beaches or towns was easy. Parking was plentiful and the elevators available made it easy for my husband who had dislocated his knee (shortly before our vacation) to access the condo on the 6th floor.
The view was nice - when you walk into the condo you see the island of Lanai and the ocean and you know your vacation has begun!
Chris is an attentive and available host. He was quick to reply to any needs or questions we had. The night we arrived, there was a small package of coffee but we couldn't find any coffee filters. Chris stopped by and brought some that night because he didn't want us to miss our morning coffee.
The condo was clean, roomy and the beds were comfy. The couch in the living room opens into a bed and sleeping with the lanai doors open allowed a wonderful breeze. The kitchen was well stocked with appliances, pots, pans, and dishware you'd need to make meals. The fridge is clean but you do have to make ice (there are several ice cube trays to keep you stocked).
There is a supply of beach gear (chairs, cooler, towels, snorkel stuff) and tennis gear to use. Plenty of hangers in the closet and towels in the bathroom.
The stairs to the loft are amazingly noisy - they creak and crack, but they work just fine. There's no way to sneak downstairs! You do hear the highway from the bedroom with the slat windows open but the trade winds muffle the sound. The sounds weren't enough to interrupt our sleep, but if you're used to sleeping in a very quiet bedroom this will be different.
We saw turtles while swimming across the street. We enjoyed the pool, and walks around the neighborhood, including walking to the coffee shop and Honokowai Farmer's Market & Deli. There's even an honor box along the walk with coconuts for sale. And Chris there was a box of chocolate-covered macadamia nuts as a welcome gift. We had a fun time and appreciated Chris's place to call home while on Maui.
