This is an outstanding place and location. The place was spotless and the location can't be beat.
Plenty of towels, free parking (!), all the right kitchen amenities, fantastic shower, tastefully decorated and free wifi. Special shout-out to the beach gear - we enjoyed using the boogie board, noodles, beach chairs, cooler, beach towels and beach umbrella.
At the beach, I learned by watching others to twist the umbrella pole into the sand up to the red line using the handles toward the bottom of the pole. And to put sand in the umbrella cover and attach it to the umbrella to weigh it down for wind. Once we figured that out, we got even more enjoyment at the beach!
There's a Maui Revealed book in the living room - it's a treasure!
The space looks exactly like the photos - but can a photo really capture what it's like to sit on the lanai each evening to watch the sunset? Or to wake up and slip out to the lanai to see if the low-tide waves are looking gentle enough for a morning dip with sea turtles? Or to walk out and see Haleakala Crater filling your gaze as you head out for the day? As another reviewer said, the A/C doesn't reach to the bedroom. We managed well with fans and by keeping the windows and blinds to the bedroom closed.
We found Kihei to be a good location for day trips - Road to Hana, West Maui and Hakeakula were all reasonable drives from there. Don't skip La Perouse Bay nearby for the latest lava beds and great ocean views. Go in the morning to see dolphins.
Wherever your day takes you, you'll always enjoy coming back and relaxing at this perfectly pleasant spot in paradise.
