We were excited to spend time here based on the pictures and prior visitors' reviews. Even though our expectations were high, walking through the door and experiencing the beauty of Maalaea Bay through those windows was stunning! As much as we enjoyed visiting places on the island, sitting on the lanai and taking in the view was our favorite pastime. Multiple turtles were often seen near water's edge. Our total experience, from preparing for our visit through final checkout was great. Bonnie has many great suggestions and is a super host, indeed. We look forward to our return.
