We had a wonderful stay at this property. The unit was clean and centrally located to beaches and restaurants. We were able to walk to a few beaches and there is a free shuttle service for those spots a little further out. The views were incredible and we were able to spot whales from our lanai every day. They thought of everything when it comes to the amenities; we had beach towels, beach chairs, cooler, umbrellas, A/C etc. The pools were also very nice (and heated) and surrounded by beautiful plants and trees. This is a great spot, especially if you are more interested in relaxing and staying predominantly in West Maui. We typically stay in Kihei for adventuring reasons (road to Hana, sunrise to Haleakala, trips to several snorkel spots in both south and west maui, etc.). You can still do these trips from Kapalua, it's just not as convenient as Kihei. Still, Kapalua/West Maui is gorgeous enough with plenty to do. We didn't feel the need to go further past Lahaina for our trip.
