I am differentiating between the condo and the overall experience. The former was a 4, the latter a 5. The former is important, but the latter is more important, as far as I am concerned.
Starting with the experience….. : location, location, location! It’s so easy to go back and forth to the beach, and Charley Young Beach is among the very best beaches I have ever known (and better than the 3 Kamaole beaches). What a dream! Surfer dudes would disagree (because there is no surf); the beaches are full of families and couples. It is easy to walk as far as Foodland (I love Foodland—and their sushi is great!) in one direction and Maui Bread Company in the other. For leisure, there is a beautiful beach walk from Charley Young Beach to the end of Kamaole Beach III—and beyond.
The condo is okay and has many positives. The biggest negative is the noise from S Kihei Rd. The second is the bedroom window right on the corridor. The owners provide great and important instructions for everything.
