This is a fantastic place for a couple to stay. It is all one big room as you can see in the pictures but I wouldn't call it a studio either, it would be hard to get privacy if you came with 4 adults. Best for a couple, maybe with 1 small child. The views are incredible, we loved watching the sunset, using the provided binoculars to watch whales breaching in the bay. At night under a full moon I could see the clouds clear and the slopes of Haleakala. In the morning we drank coffee, ate fresh fruits from the island while on the Lanai watching the whales, boats and sunrise on the West Maui mountains. The location is incredible if you just want to go to the very best beaches of Maui with only a short drive (or even walk). The neighborhood is beautiful too. I loved the shower with the glass blocks as the wall, it was a nice touch.
All needed beach equipment is provided as are additional amenities (coffee), spices, cooking oils/sauces, utensils, and soaps. Plentiful beach and shower towels washed daily.
Long Sheng was a great host! super responsive. Available but gave us total privacy. Very sweetly provided an ice cream cake and age-specific birthday candles for my wife's birthday. Gave us some vinegar after my wife got a jelly fish sting (it fixed it right away). And some bananas to eat before we got to the airport. Thank you!!!
