This was my first Airbnb experience! Gary & Brian's studio was affordable and is exactly what is pictured on Airbnb. Small yet still had all the necessities needed, I didn't expect anything more or less. Communication with Gary was easy.
The AC in the room has a timer so it would turn off during the night, but the fan came in extra handy! We slept with that on every night. Very comfortable. Bathroom was dimly lit but it was a small area so I understand. The vessel sink is modern and chic but the height of the countertop made it a little uncomfortable to use the sink because of the bowl (I'm only 5 feet). Location was central. In front of the condo complex is a beach. To the right of the condo, you will see a lot of local restaurants, plazas, stores, and gas stations. Foodland and Safeway are not too far either.
I would recommend bringing your own toiletries such as shampoo and conditioner and extra bath towels depending on how many guests and how long you will be staying. My boyfriend and I eventually bought our own at a local Target. I also highly recommend using a car rental when in Maui as there is lots to do around the island. My boyfriend and I drove everywhere. Minimum drive from Kihei to anywhere is at least 20-25 minutes. We would drive at least 30-40 minutes outside of town every day, even an hour or more depending on the itinerary. Keep that in mind depending on what you want to do during your trip. We found ourselves in Kahului and Lahaina a lot but staying in Kihei was still manageable! Great studio if you just need a place to stay.
