We loved our stay at the Maui Sands - great location if you don’t want to be in the resort area, but literally just a 5-7 minute drive to the Sheraton for snorkeling by Black Rock, or 15 mins to Napili Bay (all great destinations in Maui). We loved the proximity to the local restaurants - the fish market across the street was our favorite (Fish Market Maui). We got dinner and walked to the beachfront a few units down to watch the sunset. Close to ABC store, farmers market, gas, cute late night food truck area - within walking distance. Thanks for the beach towels and chairs as well - we made great use of it! I would def stay again!
