4 Reasons I would Book This Condo Again:
1. Financial Benefit - We chose to stay in an airbnb during part of our honeymoon to save on resort fees, parking fees, etc. Although we splurged the first half of our travels in Maui, we planned to take it easy (on our wallets) during the last 4 days of our honeymoon. That's what brought us to Brandon's place. We booked this condo and saved a ton of money which we wouldn't be able to do staying in a resort.
2. The Location - Location, location, location...this is prime real estate in my opinion. We stayed in Lahaina during the first half of our time on Maui and stayed in this Kihei condo during the latter half. This specific condo is directly across the street from one of the beaches which are recommended for the best snorkeling opportunity. Not only did we snorkel at this beach, but we watched the sunset on the beach during our final night. It was so convenient to just walk across the street to an awesome beach where the sunset was absolutely breathtaking each night.
The condo is also on the edge of Kihei and Wailea, two of the most popular locations on Maui. It is 10-15 minutes from everything we wanted to do. We booked a snorkeling trip to Molokini (definitely do this), and the boat dock we had to present to was also across the street from the condo. Great restaurants, shave ice, shopping, grocery stores, and convenient stores were a 5-10 minute drive. And parking at the condo...FREE. Good luck finding that at any resort/hotel on the island.
3. The Space - We would definitely live at this condo if we could! It is so spacious, minimalist, modern, tropical, convenient, and comfortable. We were able to do our laundry IN THE CONDO. This was incredibly convenient because we had to wash our beach towels and clothes since we were on a 2 week honeymoon. The interior design made us feel we were staying in an HGTV magazine!!! My wife fell in love with the framed prints which decorated the walls. Come to find out, this is the work of Brandon and his wife's photography, and the prints are available for purchase! Yep, that was exciting news for us too! Open floor plan, huge island in the kitchen, dining area, large living room, 2 televisions, coffee pot, washer/dryer, fridge and freezer, blender, Casper mattress, furniture on the lanai, awesome bathroom and shower, ALL THE THINGS. They just have all the things in this condo. There was nothing they didn't have. It felt like home!
4. The Extras - They also provided everything we needed for the beach including, beach chairs, beach umbrella, coolers, boogie boards, beach towels, etc. Also available were tennis rackets because of the tennis court on the property. There is also an accessible swimming pool which sits in front of the lanai.
If you're planning a trip to Maui, stay in Kihei and book this airbnb. We plan on returning and staying here again. I wouldn't change a thing about this place. ZERO complaints from us!!!
