Location, location. It’s a 3 minute walk to the beach but the area where the house is located, worked out perfectly for access to food, bars, etc! We love to walk so the couple of blocks was easy! There is nothing in the house (not even coffee filters) so if you want to cook or have any sort of food - buy EVERYTHING you need. We loved the front porch - ended up eating breakfast there everyday - the vibe is wonderful!! Don’t forget to take a nighttime stroll on the beach and check out the stars! We will definitely stay here again next time we are in Maui!
