This condo is a great starting point for a trip to Maui. The beach is not viewable from the condo but only a few blocks walk from the back of the property to the beach. We saw turtles,whales, and explored tide pools at this beach. Food options in the area were walkable and gave a good variety. The condo supplied all the needed beach amenities for a day out (chairs,towels, boogie boards, etc.). To save some money we cooked at the condo using the grills and kitchen amenities supplied. I would stay again.
