First off, Kudos to Judy for saving our vacation. The day we left for Maui, our rental for these dates cancelled on us out of the blue with no reason leaving me scrambling to line up a stay for us while en-route to the airport. The whole arrangement was done within about 2 hrs from start to finish. Judy was super communicative, understanding, and helpful. Thank you Judy!

Judy's unit is in a family friendly fairly large complex located on the shore in Kīhei. The unit is located on the ground floor which we liked. It has a patio out back that opens on a wide common area with neat close cut grass. As an adventure two of the kids actually slept out back in sleeping bags one night until the sprinklers turned on and chased them inside soaking wet :) . Parking was easy and the spots were big enough to accommodate the SUV we had rented in order to fit the 5 of us.

We were able to receive a package at the post office and rent scooters about a 10 minute walk away in the local shopping area. The shopping complex has a supermarket and all the typical stores but it also has some gems . We liked Maui Coffee for breakfast and Coconuts Fish Cafe for dinner. Also Maui is running Friday night parties (family friendly) at various towns on a rotating basis. We were here for one of them that was held in Kīhei at this shopping center. It included live music and lots of local vendors.

Other things we enjoyed. Maui Chocolate tours run by the owner of the Wailea Sweet Paradise chocolate store; you crush and make your own chocolate. And don't miss going to a tasting at ONO Organic farms if you get to Hana. (Word to the wise - don't pay more than $6-$7 for a cold fresh cut roadside coconut on the way. We got suckered for $10)

Closer to home and just a bit further south in Kihei there is a protected cove right off the road perfect for beginner surfers and a shop right across the street for rentals.

We really enjoyed our stay.
