DJ’s place in Kihei is perfect for a family vacation. The condo is really well equipped, every appliance you need, kitchen is fully stocked, beds are comfortable and there are plenty of towels, pool/beach toys and chairs for all-even a cooler to take on picnics. The maintenance staff keep the grounds immaculate, cleaning the pool every morning and taking care of the grass, gorgeous trees and flowering bushes throughout. The pool is right next to the condo and the beach is across the street. The water is shallow and calm most of the day and the beach is sandy, not rocky, perfect for kids and stand up paddle boards. The only air conditioner is in the living room, so the bedrooms can get a bit warm even with the ceiling fans, but we managed to keep the air flowing. The neighborhood roosters call at all hours, so ear plugs are recommended! There is a grocery store JUST on the other side of the parking lot and walking distance to a few shops and Maui’s only quilt shop (if you sew or love Hawaiian quilts, it’s a must!). About 1 mile south are several parks (Kam I, II and III) with grassy fields, lots of restaurants (try Kihei Cafe for their amazing cinnamon rolls!), shops and shave ice. Aloha!
