Jim was an EXCELLENT host! His communication with us as we booked and just before our stay was fantastic. We were arriving in Maui as two of the Hurricanes were set to hit and Jim kept us up to date with current weather and sent us links to weather guides and radars for Maui. The apartment is also so great! It has everything you need from a stove to a washing machine and not to mention he has top notch beach gear which is a must in Maui! Jim even gave us a discount code for the local supermarket which surprisingly saved us a lot of cash. We were thrilled and ever so appreciate with our stay at this place. We would DEFINITELY recommend this apartment to anyone wanting to stay in a self contained apartment close to the beach with parking, +++++.
