As everyone stated previously, the view itself says it all. That's the first thing we noted when we walked in. we walked straight to the blinds and opened to see directly in front of us that beautiful view. My Wife and I traveled to Maui for our honeymoon. This was the perfect spot with the perfect location. We wanted to be in a private setting, where there weren't too many tourist at the same time within steps to the beach. This wonderful unit fit exactly that. 15 steps outfront to the ocean and 20 steps directly left to the private beach. We spent many hours on the beach and there were never more than 20 ppl on that beach at a time. The condo comes with some really nice beach chairs/umbrella set, 2 body boards which used daily and snorkling gear. So you have everything you need. directly across the street is a general store where you can buy all you groceries if you need them. We cooked breakfast every morning. There's a great little pizza bar/restaurant across the street Dolly's Pub for those of you wanting that late night crave/drink. within a 2 min walk behind the general store is Maui Brewing company restaurant. So you have a few nice spots to eat within a short 5min walk. A 5 min drive down Lower Holoanapilini drive will take you to a little area with a bunch of food trucks which was a great place to just walk around. so the location was great for us. A short 10 min drive to Kaanapali Beach and spend the day at Whalers Village or just a bit down further spend the day on Front St in Lahaina. The room does get hot, but there are plenty of fans all around. We slept with the sliding door open and with the breeze, it was more than enough cool breeze that made sleeping easy. We also saw whales one morning in the distance which was pretty darn cool. So yes, this little gem of a spot is definitely recommended and I would stay again.
