1) The view is simply amazing. You could spend your entire vacation whale watching from the Lanai (back patio deck). Along with the view comes the sound of waves to fall asleep to and wake up to everyday. Paradise.
2) Location - central to everything on the island of Maui. If you have a rental car you will Love this location. Easy to go northwest to the beaches (Lahaina, Kaanapali, Napili) or south to the beaches (Kihei, Wailea, Makena) or north to the beaches (Paia, Jaws, Baby Beach) and catch the road to Hana too. It’s central to everything. Plus, it is a walk to the marina. So you won’t miss the boat out to whale watch, scuba, snorkel, charter fish, etc. There is a nice little village there at the harbor for gear rental, quick shopping, gas station, nice bar, restaurant, and even the island’s official aquarium - all within a 5 min walk from the condo.
3) Condo - clean with all the amenities for a long stay. Having a full kitchen with everything necessary to cook from a half-dozen frying pans, to a huge assortment of pots, crock pot, rice cooker, baking accessories, coffee machine, toaster, toaster oven, and a rocking pro grade blender - saved us soooo much money from having to eat out. Plus there are two huge gas fired BBQ’s kept spotless to use out back by the ocean view pool. The pool is crystal clear clean. The grounds are all kept clean too and it feels like home from the first moment you arrive. Beds are great, not to firm, not to soft. Showers have strong water pressure and PLENTY OF HOT WATER. Not sure why a previous guest complained about that. Also, a good sized bathtub in the guest bathroom.
4) Barbara - our host, couldn’t have been more professional and easy to work with.
Book this place without hesitation. It’s just fantastic.
