We loved waking up to the ocean views on one side and mountain on the other, kids enjoyed a lot in the pool and the beach was very kids friendly where they enjoyed boogie board, snorkel n watching sea turtles. Amazing sunsets !! great central location to go north or south Maui for activities. Loved the trade winds and sound of ocean waves at night. Kitchen was very well stocked and lot of beach towels.
However, the main reason of 3 stars is that the property and furniture needs to be updated, washer dryer dishwasher needs to be replaced. AC was not working in one of the two bedrooms which was very inconvenient for us at night and it took 3 days to get it fixed. There is lot of traffic noise from the road if you want to leave the windows open. In general aesthetics was missing from the house like no way to charge phones in bedrooms or patio. There were lot of bugs in the patio and inside the house and we all got bitten badly. There is hardly any closet space available for guests , all of it is used with beach chairs/stuff or pillows.
