I would absolutely recommend the Treehouse to anyone staying in Maui. (And in fact, have already recommended it to a family member). Pros: -Quiet neighborhood. Not on a thoroughfare street, so there isn't a lot of traffic. -Kihei itself is a great area to stay, and makes all areas of the island very accessible to visit. Centrally located, and close to the best swimming beaches, due to the calmer surf on southern Maui beaches (during the winter anyway) -Good A/C. Good ice maker. Both of these are important for a tropical vacation =) -You really do feel like you're in a treehouse when you look out the windows. Lots of birds in branches outside, and geckos on the porch rails. In the morning, you can see the feral neighborhood chickens running around. It's lots of fun. I liked sitting on the lanai (outdoor porch/living area) with my coffee and laughing at the zebra doves. -Never once heard the owners through the floor or anything. I think the unit is above an office space? Definitely doesn’t feel like you’re on top of anyone. -Nice owners: very clear on they can be there as much/as little as we want them to. They were extremely responsive when we contacted them- the smoke detector 'low battery' beep started going. They drove to town first thing the very next day and replaced both units. -No strong smells! This was amazing. Not in the sheets, mattress pillows, couch, flooring, nothing. It's clear no one has ever smoked in here, and they don't use any heavy cleaning products. I'm highly reactive to... so many things. Cats, strong smells, cigarettes, a lot of perfumes... It makes hotels a game of roulette. I didn't react at all here. I REALLY appreciated the environmentally-friendly and allergy-friendly touches. -Well stocked! A good spice selection, and more than just the basic condiments- there was even fish sauce, wasabi, BBQ sauce, all sorts of things. Nothing I found was expired. Any kitchen implement you would need for cooking. The bathroom also had lots of options for things you might forget, or not want to take on the plane: sunscreen, shampoo/conditioner, bug spray, stuff like that. And lots of it was unscented, hypoallergenic, paraben-free type products. Some great extras too like a little cooler with a perfectly sized ice pack in the freezer, and good beach towels. I don't think there was ever a moment we said, "hmm, I wonder if they have [blank]" and we didn't then find it! And it's got all this but is NOT cluttered feeling, at all. There's appropriate storage for everything. So A+ amenities. -Good location. You can walk down to the shoreline for sunsets, restaurants, running paths, the grocery store, and cafes. -Great layout to the apartment. Big functional kitchen with a good dishwasher, microwave, range, full size fridge, etc. Newer appliances and washer/dryer. Good size shower. The layout means you can easily set up a cross breeze in the apartment. -Good hot water, good water pressure,...
