SUMMARY: In our opinion, we could not have picked a better location to stay in Maui for the value. This area (Kihei) is centrally located and has a wonderful walking beach with nice waves for young children; however the water here is not as crystal blue as other locations due to the silty sand. The property is in a relatively quiet area with an ABC Store and Farmer’s Market right across the street. Because it is in a quiet area, you’ll need to travel by car about 15-25 minutes for dinner. The property is well-kept, with a nicely maintained lawn next to the beach and a pool. The unit was clean, well-maintained and the air-conditioning worked well. The kitchen was well-stocked and they provided other amenities such as coolers and boogie boards. Overall this condo was an excellent value in a great location. BACKGROUND: Family of four from Ohio (2 boys, ages 8 & 11). This was our first trip to Hawaii, visiting for two weeks (6 days in Maui at this location, and 8 days on the Big Island). We like to travel as a family and have stayed at several AirBNBs internationally over the years. DETAILED REVIEW: LOCATION (5/5) – The Pros: nice walking beach with fine packing sand, many miles of walking available; relatively private area and not crowded; relatively small waves for the kids; centrally located ~20-30 mins to other locations if needed; nice farmer’s market and ABC store across the street. The Cons: Because of the finely packed sand, the ocean water here is silty and not crystal blue like other beaches; there are not any restaurants within easy walking distance, so will need to drive or cook on property; roosters (plural) at the Farmer’s Market will crow every morning starting at 4am, which did not necessarily wake us up, but did sometimes prevent me getting back to sleep when I woke up early due to jet lag. CLEANLINESS (4/5) – The Pros: condo was clean, including the sheets on the main bed and fold-out bed. The floors and bathroom also were clean. The Cons: the furniture and décor were a little dated/worn; there was a slight mildew smell when first walking in, which we overcame easily; the refrigerator was leaking a little from condensation on the floor during our stay. CONDO (5/5) – The Pros: Great lanai (balcony) with plenty of space and wonderful views of the ocean and nearby islands and far enough away from the common lawn space below (initially I was concerned about palm tree fronds blocking view, but this was not really a concern as there are plenty of views); air-conditioning worked well when needed; well-stocked kitchen (everything we needed, including coffee pot, pans, etc.); plenty of amenities, including cooler, boogie boards, etc. which were great for kids and trips; the washer/dryer were communal but located on the same floor as the unit. The Cons: the main bedroom is toward the front of the unit and the “main road” (which...
