A centrally located and well-equipped condo in Kihei!
This condo looks just like the photos. It’s very spacious and even though I stayed solo, you could easily have a group of four in the space.
Perks include: a very well-stocked kitchen with pretty much everything you’d need to cook, awesome beach gear, quiet complex located away from the street. For those new to Maui or Kihei, South Kihei road is a main drag and can get quite noisy. But this complex is set back from the road on top of a small hills so you don’t get the road noise that other complexes get. You can easily access beaches, shopping, groceries within a 10 minute drive (or 20-30 minute walk).
I opted for walking and taking public transportation. However, I’d encourage renting a car. Nearby beaches are a fairly easy walk, but getting to a grocery store is a bit of a haul by foot. There’s also so much to explore on Maui that even seasoned explorers might feel limited by sticking to the bus and walking.
Things to note:
- A previous review mentioned scented detergents and soaps. I do agree with her; make a note of this if you are sensitive to fragrances.
- There was a miscommunication with the cleaners so the condo wasn’t entirely cleaned when I checked in, but John was very responsive and resolved the hiccup quickly.
Messaging John is a breeze; he’s friendly, welcoming, and open to answering your questions. Overall, I’d recommend John’s condo especially to families.
