Very satisfactory stay. Booking and advance communication with Violet was straightforward. She was upfront about the extra payment for taxes not included in the original pricing. The condo was reasonably clean and very well equipped. We met the cleaning lady on our way in -- she seemed personable and efficient. There was an ample stock of decent-quality beach towels, and it's handy to have a washer and dryer. The lanai does afford a view of the ocean across the busy road, just as depicted in the photos, but it basically overlooks the development's parking lot and main driveway which do generate some vehicle noise including the beeping of huge garbage trucks as they reverse. Didn't bother us much since we didn't spend a lot of time in the condo. The location is convenient. The beach across the road is nice enough but since you're at the south end of Kihei the more picturesque beaches of Wailea are less than a ten-minute drive away. Cuatro restaurant, about a mile north of the condo, is superb. Kihei Caffe, a couple of blocks further north, is great for breakfast. The condo is competitively-priced. I'm glad we decided to stay at Violet's condo, and I recommend it.
