Abe's place is clean and well located directly on the ocean. We had beautiful views of sunsets in the evening and rainbows in the morning. We never closed the windows, and the breezes were refreshing and cooling. Hearing the waves directly below the lanai was a treat at night except for a couple stormy nights at high tide when the wave action got a bit wilder. Still fun! His place is centrally located north of Lahaina (about a 15 min drive away) and Kaanapali Beach (about 10 min drive). Kapalua and nearby beaches are only 10 min drive north and worth exploring. The Teralani whalewatching sunset cruise was amazing! We especially enjoyed the turtles at nearby Puhaku Park Beach less than a 1/2 mi south of Abe's. They were either sleeping on the beach or swimming just a few yards out from the water's edge. Beautiful!
