IDEAL GETAWAY
This stay had it all, great location, easy pool/beach access, a great entertainment systems, and all the kitchen gadgets you may need in your stay in Hawaii.
Location: Perfect location- Only about 30 minutes from the airport, 1 hr from West Maui, and 1.5 hours from Haleakala summit. Situated at the south end of Kihei and North end of Wailea, I found that this place to be the perfect location. Never seemed to be too far to any restaurant, beaches, or shopping that I needed to be done. The complex itself has everything you may need. It is one of the few condominium complexes that has beach access directly from the grounds (most other condos in the Kihei area is across the street from the beach). It's also a walking distance away from rhe many hotel and resorts in Wailea, as well as the Shops in Wailea. Parking is ample and I never had to find a parking spot near by.
Check in: Easy peasy! Lisa and Micahel provides you with a welcome email which gives you recommendations to the man amenities the Kihei Wailea area has to offer. They provide you with a few necessities (paper towels, trash bags, sponge) so I would definitely stop by to check what they have before you go shopping. Getting a parking pass was easy as well, just fill out a form, put it in the box, and grab your pass . No need for keys when everything is digital.
Amenities: This stay has everything you need! In unit washer and dryer (LIFE SAVER!!), kitchen with appliances, entertainment center with a smart TV, apple TV, and cable. The lanai was absolutely stunning with a glimpse of the ocean making it a perfect spot for breakfast. In the Condominium grounds, there are 3 smaller "quiet" pools with a larger pool in the Pavilion. The Pavillion is a great entertaining space for those with large parties as there are many tables/chairs, an outdoor kitchen, and grills which makes it ideal for entertaining and making a meal outdoors. One of the best features is the easy beach access from the Pavilion that leads to the most picturesque sunsets!
Overall, Lisa and Michael definitely have a great unit in their hands. It's updated and has all you need. Truly feels like a a home away from home and I cherished all the memories I had in Maui especially staying at this unit. I would certainly recommend this place to my family and friends and would be so ecstatic to stay at this place again in the future.
Mahalo!
