This newly updated apartment is an exceptional value! Would absolutely stay here again! Ivanka was an attentive host! Mahalo! You can see some of the sunset and a bit of the ocean from the deck, and it was a very short walk (5 min slow stroll from door to ocean-2 min for jogging teen) to the closest beach. This place allowed for easy driving to all the west Maui beaches and shopping at such a great price! All the kitchen appliances & tv’s were new and very nice and we appreciated all the pots and pans, slow cooker, spices and dishes in the kitchen. Bathrooms also well stocked with soap, t.p. laundry soap, Etc.. We cooked 2x a day there for 8 people with no problems! Garbage and recycling was just down the stairs, and parking spot is close by too. There was even a hose to rinse off the beach sand. With the beach chairs, cooler, umbrellas, and beach towels all our many beach adventures were very comfortable! Rental for snorkels and skim board, surf boards is just downstairs in the same building, that was very convenient. Most of the other people in the building are full-time residents, please be respectful of them, we found those we met to be friendly and welcoming.
