This location was perfect and ultimately why I chose Violet's property. While the unit is a little dated, the price, location and overall look of the grounds were ideal. We did have an issue at with a delayed check-in due to the previous guests not leaving on time. Better communication about that would have been appreciated so that we could have adjusted our plans. The unit was comfortable and very quiet (minus a few birds and one loud neighbor banging on their own door at 3am one morning). The pool was nice and the other residents/guests we encountered in the community were great.
The kitchen was pretty well-stocked with pots/pans, cutlery and dishes. For someone traveling with a kid, I would have appreciated more plates/cups that were reusable and not breakable (like melamine or something similar). Nothing happened, but a 5 year old, glass plates, and tile flooring is a little stressful!
We loved sitting out on the balcony, looking at the trees and listening to the birds. The location on the property was great for quiet morning coffee and breakfast while reviewing our daily snorkel report from the Snorkel Store. Lots of gear available on the balcony, but we didn't use much of it. We found a few sand toys on the beach and left them behind in case others would like to use them in the future.
Wifi was spotty at times, which was frustrating because I did need to get some work done while I was there. I wish I didn't have to care about that, but I did.
The in-unit laundry was great. So nice to head home with clean clothes!
The bed was SUPER comfortable. Since it was just myself and my daughter, we could really spread out, and I used the fold out floor mattress as a cushion for the tile floor on my daughter's side of the bed just in case she rolled off (which she did once, so yay for mother's intuition).
Overall, our stay was great and I would recommend the property to anyone looking for a family friendly place to stay in Kihei.
