Carolyn’s place is in an ideal location. Literally a stone’s throw from the beach. We were traveling w a 3yr old and there were parks, playgrounds, basketball courts and restaurants within walking distance. Right in the mix of it in South Kihei. We actually prefer Kihei to West Maui Bc it feels more authentic and less touristy. If you’re looking for a luxury condo, then this is not it, but Carolyn’s place is clean, comfortable and cozy. I will note that the AC was not working in the 2nd bedroom, so we all stayed in the master bedroom. And the AC in the master bedroom is very loud - so most nights we left the fan on until we couldn’t bear the temperature any longer.
Be sure to check out Wave Riders next door for surf lessons - the highlight of our trip! (And if you have kids, hire a nanny through the Nanny Connection!) We really enjoyed our stay and will def consider staying at Carolyn’s place again if we find ourselves on the island. Oh - and book an extra night if you have an evening flight! It’s worth having a home base for your departure day.
