This spot was in a perfect location for my daughter and I. The beach that was basically across the street was perfect for snorkeling and hanging out. My daughter is 8 so she loved that it was calm. Josh was extremely friendly, patient and answered all of my daughters questions about the animals. My daughter is an animal lover and absolutely loved staying there. The shared shower was not a problem for us. It is a very campy stay so if you don't enjoy camping and being around nature then you probably would not enjoy this home. The room was very clean and spacious. The home is walking distance to Lahaina and the bus stop is close by. Cannery Row Mall was about an 8 minute walk which has an ABC store, Safeway, and other stores as well as food trucks at night. There are also some great restaurants past Safeway. We enjoyed the Lahaina Jodo Mission which has a gorgeous Amida Buddha that we could see from our bedroom window. My daughter especially enjoyed learning about what the animals eat, their names and any stories Josh had to share about them. It was a great vacation!
