Vicki was a great host- very prompt in responding before and during our trip.
We chose this condo because we wanted to see the entire island in 4 days. AND we wanted a central location and a waterfront view. This condo was perfect for us.
Vicki’s condo is located centrally so we quickly drove to most of the island within 10-20 minutes to any of these:
Lahaina/West Maui (warning- traffic backs up here both directions during rush hour).
or Kihei/Wailea/South Maui, or to the town of Kahului and the airport the and heliport,
or the beginning of the Road to Hana or highway to Mt Haleakala.
The 6th floor condo has a private deck with the most wonderful breezes, sunrises , and scenic view of Maalaea Bay.
The fantastic view looks straight out toward the famous Molokini Crater about 10 miles in the distance.
The condo is well equipped with both beach equipment and cooking equipment; a nice kitchen, comfortable queen bed and pillows, lots of extra pillows and linens, pullout sleeper sofa in the living area, and washer/dryer in the unit!
Parking: a designated parking spot for the rental car a few steps away near the elevator.
Recommendations:
Helicopter ride with Blue Hawaii to Molokai Cliffs/west Maui.
Mt Haleakala. - if possible drive up early morning on a clear day to get there before the afternoon clouds roll in. Buy the Maui GyPSy App for your smart phone - the narrator gives you directions, history, geology, and more.
Road to Hana: Buy the Hana GyPSy App road guide for this trip, The narrator not only gives you directions, but tells you the history and geology and gives suggestions of where and when to stop.
Beach: Po”olenalena Beach in Wailea - good snorkeling just beyond the lava point on the right. Lovely beach, sandy not rocky, plenty of parking, easy access.
Old Lahaina Luau- excellent service,
entertaining and professional show, beautiful waterfront setting, good traditional buffet, open bar.
Maui Ocean Center: many exquisitely maintained saltwater aquariums featuring beautiful and unusual fish AND living coral. Worth it just to look and learn about coral.
