GREAT FOR FAMILIES WITH KIDS!!! Our family truly loved this location and I hope my review does it justice. This was our first time staying in Kihei and I really loved it so much more than a previous stay in Kaanapali. So many things were within walking distance...coffee, shopping, food. Markets were only a 5 minute drive. 20 min drive to the Costco or Walmart for food and necessities. The condo was very kid prepared. High chair, pack and play, and plastic plates, cups, and utensils. Boogie boards AND plenty of sand toys to keep my 4 year old and 17 month old busy busy at the beach. Now...the beach. Literally right across the street. Not more than a 5 minute walk to a great kid friendly beach. Great beach for all family members. The sand is soft, not too rocky so it was great for the little ones. Then theres snorkeling...not amazing but decent. We were lucky enough to have a sea turtle that hung out in the area and swam back and forth in the cove every so often. The beach is small and does get packed so go early. The great thing is that its so close to the condo that I didn't have to worry about forgetting something cause I could just make that easy 5 min. walk back to the condo to grab some snacks or more towels. Another great thing about the condo is that since its on the first floor, you just walk straight onto your patio to drop off all your wet and sandy gear. No hassle of lugging it upstairs and through the house to let it dry off in the patio. If I was going to say anything negative it would be that its not closer to Leoda's but that would be my one and only complaint. All in all, we had a great time in Kihei and loved staying in this condo. We would love to stay here again when we come back to Maui.
