This is a great spot. Cheryl's condo is spacious -- it has two full bathrooms, a sizeable master bedroom, a nice lanai, a great kitchen, and a comfortable living room. It's incredibly clean, especially for its location across from the beach, and you can tell her guests take care to keep it that way. We had everything we needed there -- easy parking, good internet, perfect Kihei location, etc.
The spot is unique in that it is on a side of the building that has undeveloped land next to it, meaning the condo and the lanai feel pretty private -- and you can hear lots of birds if you open the doors to the lanai (but it's very quiet if you don't). There is also a nice pool and grassy area that we didn't have time to take advantage of on this trip. Overall, the value for the place is pretty unbeatable. We have stayed at many spots on the island over the years, including a number of luxury properties, but wouldn't hesitate to book Cheryl's place instead in the future if it is available.
A great beach is right across the street and many of Kihei's great restaurants are a quick walk away. Hawaiian Moons, a great natural foods store that has some local products and produce, is a five minute walk, which is super convenient. You can also walk to restaurants, shave ice, cinnamon buns, coffee, and other markets. You could probably even get away without having a car here, but if you do have one, you're a two minute drive into Wailea and the highway.
