Low-key location, central to both Lahaina and Kihei. The sound of the waves was a constant background — and I’m not complaining! The view of the water from the large sliding doors was wonderful. We could walk to the beach — maybe a leisurely 10-minute stroll, and there was also a parking area if we wanted to pack more stuff to take to the beach. The unit is equipped for cooking, laundry, hanging out on back patio. Some extras: beach chairs, a small cooler, blender, olive oil, salt & pepper, some spices in cabinet. There are two TV’s, but we didn’t turn them on once during our weeklong stay.
Barbara is responsive and was able to quickly swap out a non-working blender for a new one. I liked that we weren’t in either of the crowded Kihei or Lahaina parts of the island. We had a covered parking space and never fought traffic. The Harbor is in walking distance, and there’s a shave ice place, restaurant, tattoo parlor, and couple souvenir shops there.
The ONLY downside — and it wasn’t the unit or the host’s fault — were noisy neighbors during the last few days of our stay. We heard every door and cabinet slam they made, even during “quiet hours.”
Would stay again.
