We had a fantastic time here. The condo was easy to find, per the instructions, and the views and amenities surpassed our expectations. The listing photos do not do the views and location justice - which is really saying something, because the photos are beautiful and what sold us on this rental in the first place!
My spouse and I stayed for 4 nights. Coordinating early check-in with Thomas was easy, despite us waiting until the last minute. The unit was ready for us even earlier than promised. Not only that, but cold filtered water was waiting for us in the fridge (a true slice of heaven after a long day flying).
Everything was clean and well organized; finding additional pillows and blankets, kitchen tools, etc., was intuitive, and having access to coin-operated laundry was a major plus. The laundry room also requires a key code, which made us feel much better about spending time out on the beach while laundering our clothes. The attendant at the front desk will even make change for you, as there is no change machine in the laundry area.
We didn't prepare any food during our stay, but the kitchen had all of the basic cooking essentials (both equipment & staple ingredients) to cook simple meals. We also didn't have a car, but I did observe that there was always ample off-street parking in the complex parking lot, which was open and well lit.
I cannot over-emphasize how perfect this location is. We did a lot of walking, and compared to other areas along the coastline, this condo and surrounding area seemed less family-oriented and more suited for singles/couples (ideal for us, personally). The entire condo complex was quiet, which made sleeping with the windows open to hear the ocean a no-brainer.
The view from the balcony/lanai is breathtaking. We spent most mornings and nightcaps enjoying the views. You are, quite literally, steps from a delightful little beach. There was one particular day where we spent most of the afternoon there and had it to ourselves. True luxury! In addition, an area with a variety of quality local restaurants and little shops is just up the road. There are also several convenience stores nearby, making is easy to procure snacks or a bottle of wine. On the one occasion we did need a car, securing a Lyft was quick (compared to other islands we visited during our vacation) and the driver was able to find us easily.
Overall, 10/10. We don't typically revisit AirBnBs, but we'd be delighted to return here some day in the future and will certainly recommend it to anyone we know traveling to Kihei in the future. While this condo is not inexpensive to rent, compared to what you would spend at another complex or hotel, I guarantee you won't find better bang for your buck than this place.
