This is a great place to stay! It’s beautiful and clean and has so many more amenities than what was listed. We were pleasantly surprised to find camping/beach chairs, extra towels, coolers, and boogie boards in the closets! There were a few things that I think could be helpful for future guests to know:
1. The wifi was not a good connection. I ended up having to get off the wifi and use my data when I wanted to check social media. Therefore, this isn’t a place to stay if you are needing to do work online.
2. There is a large hill from the Main Street to the entrance of the resort. We had my mom who can’t climb hills well. So this is something to keep in mind if you are not renting a car. She walked up it one time, but it was a struggle and took awhile.
3. There is a boat dock right across the street (down the hill) from the resort. That was VERY convenient. However, the walk to the beach was definitely more than 15 minutes. So if your plan is to walk to the beach frequently, this might not be the best location for you.
4. The pool was closed without warning on a Saturday afternoon. Because it was the weekend, there was no one to call to find out when it would be open again.
5. The communication with the host was great before we arrived. But once we were there, it was lacking. Furthermore, the office was not open on the weekend or any evening. So we had to contact the on call security guard. He was very nice, but was not able to answer any questions. Because we stayed Thurs through early Monday, the majority of our time there we were not able to communicate with anyone.
6. The lady at the check-in was very kind. We arrived about 90 mins before check-in time. She let us hang out at the pool with our luggage until we could check-in.
7. There are multiple closets and the master bathroom and bedroom are very large. That was a huge plus!!
8. With the shortage of Uber and Lyft drivers in Maui, I suggest renting a car or scheduling any needed early rides the night before.
9. The location was very nice. But if you’re planning to walk around to local shops and eateries, I recommend staying somewhere further north along that same road.
10. There are two doors to separate the master bedroom and the living room/kitchen area, with the front door between the doors. That was a very nice bonus and could be especially nice if you’re traveling with children or if you are going as two couples.
All in all, we had a wonderful stay and appreciated how big the space was. The master mattress was more comfortable than the couch’s. But that’s to be expected. The air conditioner worked very well!
