First of all this place is in the perfect spot. Kihei is a nice beach area and it just feels very relaxed, we had the beach literally across the street! We would have loved to spend more time exploring the area but our goal was to get to know each side of the island and they were all very accessible from where we were staying at.
We're Hispanic/Latin American and were still able to find hot peppers (at Safeway) and tortillas (ABC Store a 5 minute walk up Kihei Rd) to have our typical meals from home. But trying the local food was really fun.
This place definitely felt like a home away from home and I highly recommend staying here for a Maui getaway.
