Bano's place was exactly what we were looking for on our return trip to Maui. The apartment is exactly as it is represented, if not better. The kitchen and living room are all immaculately clean with updated furnishings and appliances. It truly has everything you need, including a fully stocked kitchen, filtered ice and water (a convenient money saver), air conditioning that works great for those really hot days and a washer and dryer so you don't need to over pack. The master bedroom is simple, but large with a very comfortable bed. The view from the balcony is one of the best on the property, as it is on a far side away from the main parts of the resort so it is extra quiet and also right in front of the best part of the beach with excellent snorkeling right off the shore (plus we saw at least a half dozen turtles float right on by!). Since it's on the second floor, it's also really accessible and you don't have to wait for the elevator every time you want to go down to the water, but it's also there for bringing up and down heavy luggage. The location is excellent - a 2 min. walk from the ABC store, a 10 minute walk down to the Farmers Market Maui, and only 5 minutes to Times Market and the food trucks. And it's really central, right between downtown Lahaina and Kapalua, so you only have to drive 10 minutes in either direction. In addition, check in and check out were super easy and communication was fast and always kind. We wouldn't hesitate to book Bano's place again the next time we are in Maui!
