This little studio is such a gem!! Right off the water’s edge, we had no idea just how lovely it would be to fall asleep to the ocean’s waves every night. That is special, and not something you can get everywhere in Maui. This place is literally almost directly atop the water! This also means you get to see the sea turtles nibbling on the algae on the rocks directly below (not from the patio itself, but if you walk down the steps to the ground level rock wall), and if you go during Dec-Mar you can see whales off in the not-so-far distance. The place itself is comfortable and nice enough - nothing too fancy, but very adequate. The pots and pans are a bit worn, but the coffee maker and blender are nice, and there is a dishwasher and washer/dryer that comes in handy if you need. They had some snorkel gear on hand and a couple beach chairs - so vital! There are some lovely beaches and snorkel spots (famous ones, and more low-key, local/remote ones) just within 5-20 minutes, depending on what you’re looking for! The town of Lahaina is charming, and the dining options range from great, cheap(ish) burgers and fries to one of the top 100 restaurants in America (Lahaina Grill - make reservations). Overall, communication with Abe was quick and friendly. So great to have easy parking, too. We would certainly recommend this place for the west side of Maui.
