For our first trip to Maui we were unsure where we should stay- so many options!! But I saw Melanie's place and what caught my eye was the close proximity to the beach! We were not disappointed!!
The location is perfect. You are about a 15 minute drive from OGG airport, 20 min from Lahaina, 20 min from Wailea, and 10 min from Kihei!! We were centrally located to everything and it made our sightseeing and exploring so easy!
The best part was the close proximity to the beach-- You are literally on the beach!! The beach is very private which was great!! Not too many people and very relaxing. There is a little rock/reef about 15 yards from the shore where sea turtles would feed daily!! Very fun for my daughter and a great snorkeling spot!
Melanie's place was also very nice and comfortable. Very clean, well organized, and had all the beach amenities you could think of: snorkel gear, boogie boards, sand toys, chairs, towels, and cooler. So convenient!! We didn't have to rent anything or haul all our gear from California!!
The place also has amazing views of the beach from almost every room! I would wake up every morning and have my coffee on the outside balcony watching the sunrise, and my husband would read his book in the bedroom over looking the ocean! My favorite part was sleeping at night listening to wind blowing and the ocean waves crashing on the beach. It truly was a bonus.
This was an amazing place to stay and I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to stay here. When we return to Maui, Melanie's place is where we will be staying!!
