Barb's place was amazing! We can't fault a single thing - it absolutely exceeded our expectations in all areas. If we were to stay on Maui again we would book straight back into Barb's. The picture's don't do it justice - it's modern, spacious, and has more appliances than our own home. The condo felt immediately like home and we appreciated the quality of the furnishings, linen etc. The pool was just behind the back door and included a heated spa. The cleaner Nicole did a wonderful job and the small touches (e.g. laundry detergent) was appreciated. Barb was excellent to deal with - she emailed regularly just to check in and to wish us a nice stay and provided us with lots of local information. She seemed genuinely excited for us to get the most out of our stay. The free wifi was a bonus. We felt safe and secure within the estate, which was very well maintained by the garden staff (we loved the gorgeous orchids in the area too). There was car parking provided at no additional charge. When we first booked we were unsure whether to stay in Kihei but I preferred Kihei to some of the other areas we visited (e.g. Lahaina, Kaanapali).
We would recommend fresh pineapple for breakfast and a visit to Fred's mexican restaurant! (Within walking distance).
