Klaudia is an amazing host. She is not on the island but her immediate communication sounds like she is physically around when you need anything. Her long list of recommendations of places to eat and sightseeing definitely helpful if you are first time in Maui.
The place is amazing. It’s very spacious. We are party of 4 adults and 2 toddlers and never felt crammed. The beach is a 2 mins walk, down the street, and if you snorkels toward the rocks and reefs you will find sea turtles and fish. Klaudia even provide with lots the snorkeling gears and other beach gears like umbrella, chair, cooler, sand toys and even a pull wagon to haul everything down the beach. So convenient! We LOVE the full face snorkeling masks. Maui has lots of strong trade winds so shore-breakers and strong current do picks up after noon. Lots of walkable places for eatery and little gift shops on south Kihei street. Safeway grocery market is a 10 mins drive. 30 mins from airport and 45 mins to Lahaina.
The bed and sheets are comfortable. Fans in each room is a big plus since it will get very hot in Maui. There are AC in the living room and one in the other bedroom to cool the place even faster.
You can see a bit of ocean from the patio, and beautiful sunset in the evening. Each night we relaxed in front of TV. There are not much nightlife in Maui. All the kitchen appliances works. Even though the building is bit outdated, the place is clean and location is great. The community pool is also nice and clean to use. Plenty of street parking and one assigned shaded parking.
Despite the overwhelming travelers and strict covid restrictions, we are still able to create memorable memories. We will be back in Maui when everything is back to normal. Mahalos!
