This was a great spot! Kihei is a great location to be able to drive to all corners of the island (notably the Haleakala Crater and the road to Hana). Being so close to the beaches (Kamaole II, (Kamaole I, Kamaole III) was absolutely fantastic! There was also a wonderful natural grocery store that had anything we needed (Hawaiian Moons Natural Foods) at about a 10 minute walk away. The boogie boards, beach chairs, swimming noodles, parasol, and cooler were so great to have included!
Sophie was a great host, quick to respond. There was a fire near Kihei when we stayed, and she was quick to reply, and helped us through any next steps we would have to take. As it turns out, everything was okay and we did not have to evacuate, but Sophie was great throughout, and even had her partner check it out.
We paid more than we thought it was worth, but that might also be as a result of our late booking, and it being in Maui.
We were so grateful to be able to call this place our home base for the two weeks we spent in Maui. We would definitely recommend staying here.
