This place was fantastic!!! The walk to Charley Young beach is just about a minute away. Charley Young beach was one of the best beaches we experienced in Maui and we visited quite a few! The snorkeling right near the rocks separating Charley Young beach and Cove beach was great! A few times it was cloudy, but we were able to see quite a bit of exotic fish as well as a few turtles. Thomas's place felt centrally located to most everything we wanted to do. Definitely do the road to Hana and Haleakala sunrise, you won't be disappointed.
About Thomas's place - the king sized bed is super comfortable, no issues there at all. The shower is spacious, has two separate showerheads, a very nice feature. There is plenty of room in the open living room/kitchen area. We cooked dinner 4 of the 6 nights we were there and had all the items we needed. Having a waterhose at the front door made it super easy to keep the sand down to a minimum; however, there was a broom so we could help keep it clean.
For the location, and the interior comfort this place is a steal for the price! I can't say enough good things about his place. The neighborhood was very quiet, close to good food and shopping and ridiculously close to the beach!!! We loved every minute of our stay there.
