This place exceeded our expectations in every way and epitomizes why South Kihei is a great decision when visiting Maui. We had been to Maui 3 other times and enjoyed the island but the traffic and feel of West Maui had us longing to try something new. So we decided to try Tamsen’s condo for our family of 6. Everyone in the family agreed that this would be the first place we’d return to if it’s available next time.

The place has a peaceful flair to it with the colors and tasteful décor. We really enjoyed the bird of paradise pictures in the family room. Having two bathrooms makes the place so livable when considering cleaning up after the beach and/or pool. Everything works as expected with the ceiling fans complimenting the air conditioner. The kitchen was equipped with quality pots/pans/ and utensils. There were 2 new flat screen TVs with and WIFI that worked perfectly. Also included was a wired phone for local calls.

The outdoor deck was where we sat around mostly at the end of the day. The back yard is green and lush and well maintained. The pool was heated perfectly and hot tub felt terrific.

Our kids went to Kamaole beach 1 and said the water was cleaner than at Kaanapali and the sand made perfect sand castles. There is public access to the beach right across the street and we actually spent much of our beach time there since it was so much quieter.

Communication from Tamsen couldn't have been better and she accommodated our need to shift our vacation by one day. Before I knew it, she had already handled the details of the change and we were off on another hike. You will not find a more reasonable and nice person to help facilitate your stay.
