We rented this unit for a family vacation for 7 days in Maui and it was the perfect rental for our family of 3. The most clutch was having a washer and dryer in the unit, important after sandy beach days and hikes! We are coming back for sure and would love to rent this same unit again!
Location: amazing location in Kihei, the midpoint for everything on the island. Everything we wanted to see was ~20 minutes away, with Lahaina ~40 minutes away. We were less than a 5 minute walk to the beach and about 5-10 minutes from a grocery store. The unit itself was quiet and overlooks the ocean, so we caught gorgeous sunrises and sunsets from the balcony.
Unit: loved the beach chairs, cooler, umbrella and snorkeling googles provided. We used quite often! The unit is very well equipped with pots, pans, kitchen appliances, dinnerware and silverware — we ate out only 2-3 times, opting to cook ourselves more often. If you plan to cook in unit, then you will have to get the basic necessities (sugar, salt, etc.). The layout of the unit is as advertised — the bedroom very comfortable sleeps two people, with a pull out sleeper sofa under the TV console (this took us a day to find!). The couch can also double as a bed if you push the ottoman up against the chaise.
Hosts: the hosts are very responsive and the check-in and checkout process is very easy. You have to check in with the building front offices and that made us feel very safe knowing that everyone had to check-in and that security was on the premises. Assigned parking spot — if you come you need to rent a car, so that was a huge plus too.
Price/Value: the price was expensive but that’s just life on Maui :) We felt that the price was worth it for the value we got in return, and because the kitchen was fully stocked, we saved money from eating out.
