The location was great, just up the road from a great beach. The neighbors were grumpy, and obviously hate that this unit is rented to short term guests. The first night at 9:59, during a game of UNO with my kids, a neighbor came to bang on the door and let us know we were too loud and handed us a highlighted paper (which he obviously had multiple copies of) and stomped off. You literally can’t talk at the pool, so we avoided going. It’s a strange vibe. Like, they whisper and you can’t splash or listen to music or literally talk. Not the owners fault, but if you want a pool with the kids, this isn’t it.
During our stay, they put a new roof on the entire building. During the entire stay. The whole thing. Every day. All day. I’m sure that wasn’t a last minute thing, so a heads up would have been appreciated. We had to park at the parking lot next door and carry all of our stuff up the hill, over the grass and into the parking lot every time we left. They had scaffolding set up around every door, and you had to crawl under it to get inside. And the parking lot was blocked off for work trucks. We were also without water for a day, because a water line broke a few doors up. That wasn’t anyones fault, but it sucked.
It was clean enough, but had dirty light switches, dirty fridge, silverware tray.. that kind of stuff. There’s also no microwave and no cookie sheets.
There’s no air conditioning, but there is a great breeze. Just make sure to leave all the windows open when you leave.
The internet and cell reception is pretty bad there, the Wi-Fi is ok, but we had to go into town to book Haleakala tickets, because the internet wasn’t fast enough to get through.
She was great at communicating, check in was easy. Just a lock box.
Really wish there was a heads up about the roofers. That sucked.
