I would not recommend booking this property if you value cleanliness and are disturbed by insects (lots of them). We noticed that the sink and bathroom/bedroom were infested with ants and flies. there was an ant trail that ran through the bathroom. The ant infestation was so heavy that my toiletry bag was infested with ants after leaving the unit and I had to replace the item and its content. There were ants also all over the kitchen table. The kitchen sink's drain was infested with small flies. Every morning when turning on the light/running water, about 50 (I counted as I tried to catch them as they escaped) would emerge from the drain.
Bc we were so tired and did not have alternate accommodations lined up, we just sucked it up and stayed at the location, however, we soon started noticing insect bites. This really ruined our vacation - but we had nowhere else to go. We also found out that the tiny ants crawled into our suitcase, our bags and had to throw out stuff. When we finally decided that we had enough, the property manager allowed us to check out the next day and refunded the remaining amount.
They offered pest control to come and treat the unit. We declined since pest control treatment DID NOT make sense to us while we were still in the unit. We chose to leave and book another accommodation - however we were not provided any refunds for the inconvenience since pest control was offered and we declined. But that was really the only option they gave us...and it was one that could negatively affect our health depending on the measures taken.
On the pros - The location of the property is good as described and located very conveniently in Kihei with some stores/restaurants and beaches in walking distance. The furniture is adequate and functional. And that's it. Overall, the interior and unit is dated and and has seen better days, e.g., the window screens are bent and don't properly close the windows.
Another flaw that would prevent me from rating this unit any higher than 1 star (would give 0 if I could): The unit is described as having AC. The AC is an "in window" unit only in the living room which works "ok" but does not actually achieve the set temperature in the living room but just delivers a stream of cool air. The AC in the living room does not at all reach the bedroom. The bedroom is hence hot/outside temperature. The windows don't close fully and the unit being located at the top floor heats up substantially during the day due to direct sunlight. The bedroom is hot at night.
Overall, just save yourself the trouble. Would not recommend to book this location in general.
