Good location across from the beach and near some restaurants and shops. The bed was comfortable and having access to laundry was great. As the host states, the kitchen area is not set up for cooking but it has a micro, toaster oven, small fridge and a grill outside. We were able to have some breakfast and lunches there. Kihei and the surrounding areas have so many beaches and coves to choose from so location wise, it worked well. We did have a rental car which we used to go all over the island. Kris was a good host!
