Thomas' place was in a great location! Literally a two minute walk from the beach. It was great just taking the chairs out to Charley Young and enjoying the beach, especially at sunset. Walking distance and an easy drive to lots of great food options, Foodland, beaches, and the highway to get to other parts of the island. It was especially great to have a ground-floor apartment, as we brought our little one with us. We made good use of the kitchen for daily breakfasts and went out for lunch/dinner. Kihei isn't nearly as crowded as other parts of the island and we were able to find parking close by, if not out front.
