I was on Maui by myself without a car and Teri lives in the perfect spot: close to the beach, at walking distance to the lively center of Lahaina and the bus stop to reach the other beaches in the north west part of the island. The bedroom is pretty much comfortable with a lot of fans but without A/C. During the day it's very hot in there, but who wants to stay home when there are so many beautiful beaches? At night the ocean breeze makes it cooler and I didn't feel the need for A/C at all. The private toilet and the big walk-in shower made the rest very easy. The place is very quiet and although there are many animals on the property, it's clean. Teri lives with a lot of animals, they are free but separated from the inside of the house apart from the cats that you may find laying down in the living-room: not for you if u don't go well with cats or animals in general. Teri is a vibrant and outgoing person, she has a very strong personality and welcomes you in a very warm way. Ray, a male caretaker now in charge of the housekeeping, is a very discreet person that you hardly notice, although he shares a spot in the living room, just behind the sofa. A very positive experience that i would repeat if I went back to Maui
