The three of us (my husband, 9-year-old daughter, and I) stayed in Joe's place for five nights in June 2019, and this condo made our first visit to Maui truly spectacular. Perhaps the best thing about this place was its location: Kihei is central to the entire island as it's right on the south shore and an easy drive from the airport and to Wailea, West Maui, Paia, and Road to Hana. We did some research beforehand, and to get a resort room in Wailea right down the street with the same oceanfront view would have cost a fortune. We had the enviable balcony view, ocean breezes, pool, and beach access for which resort guests pay 2-3 times as much. Plus, my daughter had her own room and we had so much space. We spotted three large sea turtles in the fishpond right outside the building the first morning, and it was so quiet. Much of the time the only noises we could hear from the unit were chirping birds and ocean waves hitting the shoreline. It appears that the master bath and kitchen have been recently remodeled, and the entire unit was spotlessly clean. We were grateful for the washer and dryer in the unit and the comfortable bedding and towels, not to mention the boogie boards and beach chairs! The beds were very comfortable and soft. The unit is not stocked with coffee, shampoo, or conditioner, so guests should remember to plan ahead for these items. The master bedroom gets fairly bright in the morning since there are a lot of windows in there and the curtains let in some light, but that wasn't much of a problem for us since we were still on mainland time and getting up at 5:30 a.m. was comfortable for us on this trip. It was hot on Maui during our trip (almost 90 degrees), so we were happy to find that the unit had air-conditioning! We definitely needed it, and the unit cooled down nicely. Joe's place earns five stars from all three of us! We can't wait to return to Maui and stay there again.
