I'll admit I was a bit nervous when we first arrived at the Maui Sunset resort because the building and landscaping out front had been neglected. This was our first Airbnb experience and we typically lean towards highly-rated hotels so I was unsure how comparable Airbnb ratings were. Boy were we in for a nice surprise!
When we entered Judy's condo the place and view from the lanai (patio) looked fabulous! The resort definitely puts it's funding into the interior gardens, golf-course grass, and pool/hot tub area. The renovated condo was very clean and bright with lots of room in the bedroom for luggage. Even better than typical hotel samples, Judy's place was equipped with additional sunscreen, aloe, and bug spray (a must for early morning walks on the beach). We really enjoyed our 3-night stay here.
Good to know:
The office will give you a parking pass. Be advised: the double-sided tape melts in the hot sun and can be very hard to get off rental car windows!
The dryer continues to run even after the door is opened so step back to avoid getting a face full of hot buttons and zippers. The dryer must be forced off manually.
We had a wonderful stay! The resort is conveniently near stores and restaurants but not so close to be noisy. The resort has a very friendly, small-community vibe and the beach and grounds are impeccable. And the central location in Kihei means you have enough time to tour a good part of the island during the day and get back in enough time for a lovely evening swim. I highly recommend this condo and resort!
Mahalo, Judy, for sharing your beautiful place with us!
