Aloha! To surmise a long review, Todd was excellent, and I would stay here again in a heartbeat.
Todd’s home is in an extremely convenient location. I was first disappointed by not choosing to stay in the heart of the jungle or right on the water, but at Todd’s residence, I was able to travel to both within 15 minutes for a fraction of the price.
The listing was originally titled “Bed and Breakfast” so that was the tipping point for me to stay here as opposed to another Airbnb at the same price point. This listing is not a bed and breakfast, and Todd quickly updated his listing title when I inquired about this. He did go out of his way to provide some breakfast items that lasted six out of my fourteen day stay, and I did find this to be a very kind gesture. After finally meeting Todd, the day before check out!, he told me he’d been out of the Airbnb game for a while, and I can only assume he didn’t even realize the misleading title.
My only gripes about this space were the incredibly uncomfortable couch, which was easily rectified by using the duvet found in the closet as additional cushioning, and the multitude of what I can only assume are Maui’s version of cockroaches. They were very small, stayed very high up, and did not bother me at all aside from one who made home underneath my conditioner pump. I was mostly just confused at how they were getting in, considering how screened in everything was.
Todd provided amenities that you would find in any hotel, with the additional providing of sunscreen, and had loads of Tupperware, which was lovely for me, as I was staying for two weeks and did not want to eat out every meal. Washer and dryer is right outside, shower pressure is great, garbage disposal worked.
I would like to conclude this review by saying that I stayed during Hurricane Lane, and Todd remained present and available throughout the entire initial panic that swept the island. I felt very safe in his home, he offered tips, and I would highly recommend this Airbnb rental to anyone passing through Maui.
