Minutes-walk away from the water, 5ish min walk or extremely short drive to beaches. Kihei cafe (super popular breakfast spot) minutes away by walking. Went during January, parking was never an issue. Extremely thoughtful host, had a lot of toiletries and extra things that we didn't pack but ended up needing/wanting, such as simple things like aluminum foil for leftover food, or extra disposable utensils. Also had nice fragrant body wash/shampoo/conditioner/lotion that my wife loved, all in travel size containers. Room had a fold-out table and two chairs to use, as it is just a studio + bathroom. There was a microwave and Keurig though, as well as 2 beach mats, a beach umbrella, 2 beach chairs snorkeling fins and goggles/tubes. Like I said, really thoughtful place. Only things bad(ish) to say about the place (that are really out of the host's control) are that the bed was on the softer side (personal preference) and guests walking by/next door can be loud at times from thin walls. 5/5
