Overall this was a great place for us to start our trip especially for the price. We were initially concerned that there was no A/C but with the windows open there was a great cross breeze that made the residence quite comfortable. The view is as as advertised and we were able to see the honu from our balcony. I would highly recommend booking a snorkeling excursion with Maui Snorkel because you can walk to the dock easily then relax the rest of the afternoon by the pool with a killer view.
