Unfortunately Barbara never gave the code for the key box needed to enter. I took the red eye and had no internet to get in touch. It was extremely upsetting. For this reason I reflected such in the review. This was not a mild hiccup.
Maui is very windy and along with this comes red silt. What I found unacceptable was having to purchase cleaning items (paper towels, toilet brush, trash bags, cleaning supplies - over $75 dollars worth) to clean the place because we paid for a month (over $8,000) and I like a clean environment. The owner wants you to remove trash daily in addition to turning off valves if you use the washer. I would have trash bags at a minimum left for people and enough cleaning products . I figured the owner mainly leases the property and did not know such things.The coffee machine leaves grounds in the coffee and should definitely be replaced. The beach across the street is not good for swimming - but you can sun there until the wind picks up around 11:00 am. The internet went out frequently which had direct impact on my ability to do work and purchase travel. To add to this, I got a message saying she wanted to charge us $125 for missing towels. This is after I cleaned all towels and folded on top of dryer. I would think for the money she would have included a cleaning once during our stay of a month. My recommendation is - if you rent from her - INSIST on code to condo before you get there. Also, there are better locations for the money we spent.
