YES - the ocean is right there. Yes - you can hear the waves. Yes - we swam with turtles every day. Yes - the snorkeling is awesome and only steps away from the patio.
Ed's place was perfect for us. We do not like the big resort feeling. This smaller complex was just right. The staff was great and it was very well maintained.
The condo itself was also perfect. We took our bikes, so having a washer - dryer was big. The art work around the condo was very cool.
Ed good at communication
I don't think we would go back to Maui unless we could stay at Ed's!
