The pictures really don't do this property justice. It's really lovely! The view out of both the upstairs and downstairs porches is fantastic. The condo includes a covered parking space just outside the door which makes coming and going a lot easier than all of the hotels. We didn't realize just how much we were going to appreciate that!
The beach is a 5-7 minute very easy walk away. While it's a public beach, it's actually not very busy. We had plenty of space, good sand, and beautiful blue water. Leila supplies two beach chairs, a boogie board, and a cooler. Besides the beach, it's also close to some good hiking. There's decent restaurants in the area although most meals we either made in the ample kitchen or were driving a little further out. If you want to get an idea of what's in the area, look up the Ritz Carlton as it's very close by.
The location is convenient for most anything on the west side of the island. You can count on it being no more than 20 minutes away to anything on the west side and about an hour to anything "central" (Kahului Airport, Paia, Wailea). It's a long way from Kapalua to Hana, though, so plan for that appropriately if you're planning to travel the road to Hana and do some excursions.
Leila was great with communication. The condo was clean and well stocked. And again, don't trust the pictures! There's no way to capture just how pleasant a morning can be sitting out on the patio watching the sunrise amongst all of the flowers and plants and enjoying a warm cup of coffee!
