The condo was located at quiet side of town and was a great place for pur first trip to Maui. They provide a very helpful welcome binder about what to do and what's nearby. Within walking distance to Napalli Bay and some restaurants or can hop in for a 3 minute car ride to a plaza with several food options including a grocery store and coffee shop. Val does provide a water jug to rinse of sand from all the various beach excursions, plus there is a laundry facility very close to the parking spot that has a sink we used a couple times as well. The neighbors were very friendly whenever we ran into anyone. The neighbor right next to the condo also has a very sweet cat that would sit outside the door meowing until you pet her 😊
Keep in mind that most of the "tourist spots" are within a decent driving distance and there may be some traffic as the main road from the airport will eventually only be two lanes.
We've stayed in several locations on different islands and as usual if you open the windows and doors there will be a nice breeze. We did arrive later in the evening, after 7pm, and even with the fans running before we arrived it was very hot in the condo (in July of course), but opening the doors and windows helped cool off eventually. We did have to call Val because we didn't know we could open the window in the bedroom since the ac unit was attached to it. The unit was set at 68 when we arrived which we kept it at, but it didn't feel that cold for our whole stay, but did get cool enough to be comfortable and sleep. Remember to keep the bedroom door closed to keep as much cold air in.
Another tip is for the fans/lights and remotes. Since they're so close (bedroom and living room) we realized that if you turned on on/off in one room it would do the same in the other. Go stand near the balcony to use the remote for the living room lights/fan and it won't interfere with the one in the bedroom. I kept wondering why the lights kept turning on in the living room, but it was my boyfriend trying to use them in the bedroom.
