The sun, sand, surf and snorkeling are all great in Maui, as everyone knows. At island sands, in Eve and Steve’s extremely luxurious yet laid back condo, it’s all about the high life with a beach vibe. This place is truly a tropical paradise with a well appointed lanai to sit back and take in the calming ocean breeze and swaying palms (sunrise snd sunset on the gorgeous Maalaea Bay and breathtaking views of Halaeakala mountain included with the price of admission). All the amenities of luxury living are available within the condo for a stress-free experience. As far as locations go, the place is merely a stone’s throw away from the harbor if you are here for Molokini and to swim with the turtles. Iao Valley, the road (and the other road - you have to do this if you are a Lord of the Rings and Deathly Hollows fan just to see what a bleak volcanic landscape looks like!!) to Hana and the Highway 340 loop around West Maui to the Kanapalli Coast are all about 30 minutes away. The airport is only 15 minutes away, so this place is centrally located to enjoy pretty much everything Maui has to offer. The host Eve is super accessible, and made us feel welcome. She even went above and beyond what is required of a super host and made my wife’s birthday a memorable occasion (bless her kind soul). I would highly recommend a stay at Eve and Steve’s at the Island Sands. Trust me, you’ll feel like James Bond in a beach suit traipsing in and out of here.
