Anke was very responsive. It is exactly what we hoped for. The home had all the essentials a family would need: extra beach towels, kid sand buckets with sand toys, beach chairs, an umbrella, a cooler, sand mat. All the kitchenware to cook & bake home meals, basic ingredients to cook with spray oil, salt/pepper, coffee filters, I mean all the essentials were there. If we had an issue, Anke, was more than helpful in clarifying or troubleshooting. The front office staff was welcoming and helpful. Very calm and quiet surroundings and is within walking distance of the beach. If you looking for clear blue water you will need to drive out to a different site. But the beach worked for us and it's Maui you will find beach spots everywhere not a big deal. Thank you, Anke! I hope to come back to your home again.
