We have been to Maui many times, and stayed at Lahaina Shores several times. It is our favorite place to stay as it is walking distance to Lahaina town and includes parking, and the beach is right outside the door. Great location. We'd never stayed in a penthouse at Lahaina Shores, and it was a wonderful option. We had room to allow undisturbed naps now and then, and the huge lanai allowed us even more room. The unit is set back from the edge of the roof, so we had lots of privacy, which was also a pleasure. We felt like we had our own private place to enjoy ourselves. We had a problem with the AC in the living room, but one phone call to Coconut Condos and the maintenance people showed up almost immediately. Great service. On a practical note, having two bathrooms is always a plus, and having our own laundry facility was a big positive also. All in all, it was a FIVE-STAR experience and we would highly recommend this unit.
