We stayed at john’s and william’s place for a month (my husband, me and our 8 month old baby). Our in-laws joined us for two weeks. We had a fabulous time.
The unit itself: Our in laws said that the pull out was very comfortable. It was a bit tight for four adults and a baby, but it was still enough space. The kitchen was stocked with pretty much everything you could want. They even had a baster (!!) and a slow cooker. AC in the bedroom was a godsend. I don’t know how anyone sleeps without AC in Maui. We loved the lanai as well. There was a review mentioning cockroaches, which made us worry a bit but that issue must have been rectified before we arrived. We did not see any cockroaches and the unit was very clean.
The resort: The pool was big, clean and not crowded. There was always shade somewhere along the pool. The bbq space was great for cooking dinner. There is a lot of green space which would be great for families with little kids who want to run around.
Location: beach was right across the street but we usually went to a different one a bit down the street (by the whale conservatory) because that beach had a break wall so the waves were smaller for our baby. Quick drive from the resort to the shops and restaurants in Kihei.
The hosts: great hosts. they were so quick to respond to all my inquiries. They were very helpful as well. We needed to deliver some stuff for our baby (because we couldn’t bring everything on our flight) and they were awesome in helping us arrange that. They were also helpful during our stay as well. The check in and check out instructions were very clear. The only thing we found a bit confusing was the directions to the unit itself.
In summary, great value and we would stay here again.
