Laurie and Kimo's place was perfect for our stay in Kihei. It was a short walk down to the beach in front and only a 10 minute drive to Makena State park, which had our favorite beach of the trip! Downtown Wailea is only 5 - 10 minutes away as well. The apartment had all the essentials, as well as beach chairs, snorkel gear, cooler, boogie boards, etc. This was such a great addition considering we didn't bring any of these! The kitchen looked newly remodeled and the balcony had a great little peak-a-boo ocean view. We were easily able to walk to breakfast spots, and about a mile down the road were multiple bars and restaurants we walked to. The price point was the most reasonable we saw on the island and we can't wait to come back again! Laurie was also extremely responsive and very easy to communicate with.
