We chose July's condo for our first trip to Maui based on the reviews on AirBNB. Honestly, I thought people might be exaggerating, but still the photos looked awesome. This AirBNB is the best we have experienced. You cannot find better than this location and this price. It is PERFECT.
First, the location - you are literally on the beach. Those views you see in the photos do not even do it justice, even though the photos are gorgeous. There is a HUGE balcony. The entire kitchen and living room (plus loft) open up to the ocean view. You can hear the waves and see the ocean from all areas of the house (except the bathroom). We saw whales every single day, and we saw turtles up-close every single day.
The beach itself is gorgeous. It's private, the complex is small, but very friendly. You have access to amazing snorkeling, paddleboarding, and swimming areas steps from this condo. We were so close to so many restaurants (walking distance and very short drives) and other amazing beaches. The complex has laundry facilities, too. There is a small market nearby (Farmers Market Maui) good for snacks, food, etc.
The unit itself was great - very spacious. We could've easily slept 4 people (there were only 2 of us which made it feel even roomier). It has a fully stocked (cooking/eating utensils-wise) kitchen. July has provided everything you need for a great trip to Maui. There is a beach chair, several beach towels, a beach mat, binoculars, guides to Maui, a boogie board, and our most-used items: snorkeling gear (fins, masks, and snorkels). She even provides some bathroom amenities (like a hairdryer, which was great!). There are TVs/cable in each room and wifi. While it did heat up a bit in the day, there are SEVERAL ceiling fans and floor/oscillating fans, plus the windows open/ocean breeze meant we were never uncomfortable (we tend to run hot, so I think this is a good testament!).
July herself was great - she provided tips for things to do. One of the wifi networks wasn't working the first day, but July immediately had an alternative for us. In addition, we had a late-night flight out and she was so flexible with checkout times.
I cannot stress enough how amazing of a value/location this place is and how easy July is to work with. Seriously look no further - we plan to come back to Maui (hopefully regularly) and cannot imagine staying anywhere else.
