My daughter, three grandsons (age 11 months, 7 yrs. and 15 yrs.) and I (Grandma) spent 10 days in this beautiful Lahaina condo. Think comfortable family beach house in an ideal setting. Safety and convenience were my top priorities when searching for a place. This exceeded both. The pool is just steps away so my daughter was able to swim with the older boys while the baby napped and get to him immediately upon waking (we had a baby monitor at the pool). It was also super convenient for using the barbeques located in the pool area. We also felt safe enough in the evenings to leave the doors open while we slept. The sound of the surf and fresh air was amazing. There are ceiling fans in the living area and both bedrooms so an air conditioner was not necessary. I much prefer the smell of the plumeria anyway. The ground floor view is unmatched. Whales and turtles delighted us every day from the veranda and the fenced in walkway. The sunsets, beyond the four perfect palm trees and tiki torches, were spectacular.
We met many wonderful people from Canada and our other cold states (we are Alaskan). I would describe this place as peaceful and convivial. I enjoyed the sounds of laughter, tinkling cutlery, and people enjoying life after a long pandemic and a dark, cold winter. It was magic.
The condo is well equipped with kitchen appliances, utensils and beach toys. The beds are super comfortable and the bamboo sheets feel like cool silk.
The pool is clean and the grounds are well cared for. I suggest that the cleaning crew could do better for the quality of the condo.
We toured and ate lunch at the Maui Ocean Center, enjoyed the farmers market on Saturday, snorkeled at Baby Beach, waded at Kaanapali beach and strolled Old Lahaina in search of shave ice. But it was equally enjoyable to just stay at the condo and relax.
Scott is a responsive host. Thank you for the welcoming gifts. Unexpected and very appreciated. We hope to return.
