We stayed in Paia for 6 nights in July 2019. Mauricio’s place was sparkling clean, about 2 km down the road from Paia town (which we drove to and from), and walking distance from a small but beautiful beach. Also right next to the famous Mama’s fish house. The apartment was well stocked with many towels, extra sheets, lots of pillows, fairly reliable wifi, TV (we hooked up our Netflix account to it), and the kitchen all the basic kitchen tools, and even Tupperware and ice packs. We also had two beach chairs, a beach umbrella, snorkel mask, sunscreen, soap and shampoo, dish soap, boogie board, and a cooler if one wants to pack cold drinks or food for the beach. Parking spot was right in front of the apartment. Furnishings seem of good quality and all very modern. We especially enjoyed the fridge with the built in water and ice maker- ice handy in hot Hawaii!! Bedroom sometimes a bit hot as air con only in the living room, though there is a fan in the bedroom. We didn’t use the sofa bed as we were only two people so not able to comment. Coffee maker in apartment but didn’t see a kettle for tea drinkers.
Location was great- We were happy we chose cute funky Paia instead of bigger resort towns, and when we did the road to Hana we had about an hours head start on anyone staying further away, so that was great too. Very convenient to the airport. Relaxing holiday with home amenities, well worth having an apartment with a full kitchen for the same price as a hotel room!! Thank you Mauricio!
