This was a very nice place in Kihei only about 1-2 miles north of a lot of restaurants and shopping centers. This unit does have a view of the ocean and the pool on the property. There is beach access behind the unit if you walk across the yard, but be forewarned it is covered in rocks, if you don't have water shoes, I would pick a different beach. We had a great stay here and appreciated the "gear" one would need for a day at the beach already being in the unit.
