This location was perfect for our family of four visit to Maui. The unit was as advertised and had everything we needed for our visit. The host was very responsive and proactive with communications. The unit was well cared for and we felt right at home.
As far as the area, it is a reasonable drive to/from the airport. Several restaurants, shops, and activities are just a few minutes walk or drive away. We highly recommend taking a day to head north and take in the scenic drive along the northwest corner of the island (see Honoapiilani and Kahekili highways). Compared to the Road to Hana (eastern side of island), this northwest drive was much closer and an easier drive with easier access to stopping points with amazing views. Note that if you do travel the Road to Hana (Hana highway), plan and pack carefully as the road may be one way in and the same way back out depending on the conditions and weather. In both drives, plan ahead for limited cell service.
