this place is absolutely perfect for a couple - we stayed here on our honeymoon. the view is stunning, and with the shortest walk to the beach it was everything we hoped for. we arrived a few days after tropical storm lane passed by maui and due to the high winds, lahaina and the nearby areas experienced a bad brush fire (they had another one later in the week when we were there), the first one had taken out some power lines, so when we arrived there was no power at the location. but elaine was an excellent host and already had some electric candles, a flashlight, and some light sticks out for us, so we didn't have to worry or get any supplies ourselves! thankfully the power came back on during our first night there, but i honestly wasn't worried about it. the space is beautiful, large, comfortable bed, plenty of dresser space to unpack and feel at home, a kitchen which was perfect since both of us unfortunately felt under the weather during most of our stay and often found it difficult to go out far. she gives you so many great local tips and locations that were absolutely fantastic. we loved our stay here, and honestly would have loved to have stayed forever. xx
