First of all we typically splurge on our accommodations as my wife works for Delta airlines and we rarely have to pay anything for flights. However splurging in Wailea is an entirely different tax bracket than us. This time we had an awkward size group of 2 parents and 3 teenagers who don’t want to touch each other when they sleep. This was putting our accommodations costs at the beach side resorts in the $10k range which was a deal breaker. In this unit we put the 2 boys in the King size bed and the girl on the couch pull out bed. My wife and I took the queen with our own bathroom. The unit is located in a condo complex in the heart of Wailea so the location was pretty centrally located but not on the beach. This turned into a great cost saving with little inconvenience. We did load the car up each morning with all the beach gear ( 5 beach chairs, 1 umbrella, 1 big roller cooler, 1 boogie board, 1 wave skim board, lots of snorkel gear and multiple beach towels) you would need for a full day at Wailea beach. We used the beach access parking between the Four Seasons and Grand Wailea resorts and it was never completely full during the week. You can easily pack all this walking down to beach but it is tough to drag it all back up the hill at the end of the day. The unit was super clean, spacious and modern. I’ve seen the complex rates as 3 star which is somewhat valid but I would give this unit a 4 star for the space, beach gear and interior updates. Bottom line was this is a terrific value for the chic area of Wailea and was everything we wanted for son’s senior trip. All
Of us were impressed. We will rent it again.
