The pictures of this place do not do it justice. This was a beautiful place to stay for a week. We went to several of the other beaches, but found the very best beach for lying on the sand or snorkeling and seeing the sea turtles was right here! Next time, we will just stay on this beach the entire stay. The views off the lanai were breathtaking. We realized that almost every picture we have is from either our balcony or our beach! Kuleana is central to just about everything else in the Lahaina area...nothing is more that a mile or two away. The place was well stocked with everything you'd need. I especially liked that we had snorkeling and beach gear for our use...even an ice chest! Jim and Judy are terrific hosts making sure that we had everything we needed. I especially appreciated the interactive Google map! Extremely helpful. The one and ONLY drawback was the air conditioning situation. I specifically looked for a place with AC. I don't do well in humidity, so I wanted AC. This place only has a very small unit in the bedroom and does not cool the entire place. I would imagine when the humidity is lower, it would be fine to just open the place up, but it was quite humid during our stay and opening up the unit didn't help. Good thing we are in Hawaii and don't stay indoors much!!
