This place is great! Can't beat it if you have kids. You have very well maintained grounds and pool. The pool is cleaned every morning. There are beaches for miles in both directions. If you have kids 12 or under the "fish pond" beach right behind the building is amazing. There is a rock seawall built which helps protect the beach from large waves or any undertow. Not to mention the turtles. We saw 3-5 green sea turtles at the fish pond every day. Sometime they just sun themselves and sometime they swim along. Most of the area is also less than five feet deep. Our nine year old loved it. We just let him tool around for hours every day. Our 18 month old also loved it (with more supervision). She could walk in the shallow waves and I could walk her around while she sat on a boogie board.
Outside you have a view of Haleakala from the front. From the master bedroom, living room and lanai you have views of the ocean, pool and beaches. All great.
Inside you have a very well appointed kitchen. A bit tight but everything you need is there including a dishwasher. Big plus. The in until laundry is also huge if you have kids or pack light. Beds, pillows and other furniture were very comfortable.
Finally location. The location is great. Kihei has multiple grocery stores, lots of places to eat including tons of small local places with killer food all with in 3-5 minutes.
If you need a centrally located affordable home base for Maui this is it.
