The view from the lanai is outstanding! There is a little “fishing pond” next to the complex that is calm and super swimmable! Excellent for kiddos or the elderly as no one will get rocked by waves or taken out by a current. Not much is walking distance and the sidewalks come and go, but it is a very short drive to great stuff, and you’ll pretty much need a car to see Maui anyways. The pool was cooler than the ocean and I think had a 3 ft end and a 5 ft end. Lots of rules about noise and big floaties, but your kids can just go have fun at the “fishing pond” which the complex has a direct gate to. Be prepared to buy supplies right away. Anyone planning on using the main bathroom will want to bring their own shampoo/soap if you are planning on staying a week or longer. Robert was awesome to communicate with! It is not the newest condo unit, but very comfy and cozy and worked great for the three couples (and one baby) who stayed for two weeks.
