Ted was a great host. He responded quickly to e-mails, even non-urgent ones like what kind of coffee filter the coffee pot used. The condo itself is situated nicely in Kihei at the end of a road that has a lot of restaurants, shopping, and beaches. The condo was just as described-- clean, updated, and functional. The complex was quiet and the pool and hot tub area was low-traffic- we spent most nights out there grilling dinner and swimming. Having a small beach across the street was nice as we could go watch the sunset easily! This wasn't noted in the description but the DVD player also allows you to access your Netflix account which made finding something to watch at night easier. We would highly recommend staying here if you visit Maui!
