Violet was a wonderful host and the condo was fantastic - just steps to a beautiful beach in Kihei. The condo had everything you could possibly need to feel at home (including all beach accessories :) ). We enjoyed many meals on the balcony and there are many excellent restaurants/cafes next to the complex (Bistro 808, Deli 808, Cafe O'Lei, Maui Fish N' Chips were some of our favorites) and a short walk to shopping, etc as well. We were able to catch the sunset each night from the beach or the balcony - absolutely stunning! Violet was extremely accommodating and really made us feel welcome and responding to e-mails quickly. This spot is definitely family friendly as well as great for couples looking for a relaxing getaway.
