We booked and Airbnb again at this resort because last year we had a great experience
However our experience this year was quite disappointing. Here are some of the issues:
1. The furniture in the apartment was quite cheap and more of the quality and type used in cheap motels.
2. Ring of black mold all around the kitchen sink.
3. The kitchen was very sparsely equipped.
4. The bathroom showers had mold which was visible, but you could also smell it once inside the shower.
5. We had issues with pulling out sofa bed out when we go in, and issues with putting it back in the morning after. Maui Westside staff were quite nice and came and fixed it the next morning. The pullout was however quite uncomfortable as both the kids who slept on it complained of backaches throughout the trip.
6. The bed sheets had stains. I also had not seen the type of thin blankets used in this apartment used in hotels since the mid 90s.
7. The bed frame wheels would move even though it was in locked position. The kids move around while sleeping, so the beds would move away from the headboard and the pillows would fall off in the middle of the night. It was quite frustrating.
8. We only used the balcony once since it was covered with orange dust from the construction below. In order to avoid brining the dust back in, we stopped using the balcony after the first day, and after having to mop the white tiles in the apartment.
We were not notified of the construction during booking. Had we known, we would have booked a location away from the construction so could have enjoyed using the balcony.
9. The vacuum cleaner supplied did not work as the belt brush was broken. We ended up using the smaller duster with the short power cable which was a bit frustrating.
In short, this apartment at a price of ~5000 for 6 days was certainly not worth it. Last year we paid ~3500 for 5 nights for a much better and cleaner apartment of the same size at the same resort.
Thank you
