Sandra was a fantastic host --- due to the winter weather on the mainland, our arrival was delayed by a day but Sandra was very flexible and accommodating allowing us to not miss a day of Maui fun! The villa was fabulous with a beautiful lanai overlooking the ocean which was particularly enjoyable in the morning while we had our coffee. In fact, it was so nice that we ordered takeout a couple of times rather than sit in a restaurant. The private pool was great to unwind and relax. Kihei is great location with a short drive to excellent beaches in Kihei or Wailea and a good starting point to explore West Maui or the road to Hana. My entire family (4 of us including myself, my wife, and our two teenage boys) enjoyed the place and we highly recommend Sandra as a host and her villa!
