I consider myself (and my 2 daughters) the recipient of enormous good fortune in having been given the opportunity to stay at C-T's lovely cottage. Our stay was booked at the last minute during busy spring break in Maui, and I was exceedingly fortunate that C-T had a late-stage cancellation. Our stay was easily 4 times more enjoyable than staying at a hotel that would have easily cost twice as much.
Situated perfectly in Kaanapali at the International Colony Club (on the leeward side of the main road), we used the cottage as our base from which we managed to explore what feels like almost every inch of Maui. The cottage was extremely well appointed with very high end (and high functioning) appliances, an impressively automated home system (thank you Alexa), and super-comfortable beds (I gave my girls the master, they felt like Queens!).
The cottage was impeccably clean when we arrived, and check-in was seamless. One small thing, and really appreciated, was that the cottage had everything we needed to hit the beach right away without effort: beach chairs, towels and a small cooler. There were even snorkeling masks and flippers.
The kitchen was a delight! Very well stocked (we love to cook!). And did I mention the appliances? A real pleasure.
In the evenings, after our adventures, we'd either eat out or cook in, then settle down in front of the big screen (with streaming services aplenty). We made a nightly activity of watching Benedict Cumberbatch's Sherlock - so fun!
The furnishing and design of the cottage were really thoughtful, tasteful and comfortable. As a host, C-T could not have been more attentive and genuinely concerned with making sure that any issues (of which there were nearly zero) were handled with expeditious alacrity. From the booking phase (C-T was very helpful in navigating a few hiccups with AirBnB's system), throughout our stay (she graciously helped us add a day to our stay at the last minute) and until checkout, C-T was always available and helpful.
We wished we hadn't had to leave.
We'd LOVE to go back.
We WILL be back!!!
Thanks C-T, for everything!!!
