We loved this place and would definitely stay there again! Prior to arrival, the communication was very prompt and we were provided with all the information we needed to ensure a smooth arrival. Upon arrival the unit was ready and sparkling clean. The place is beautiful and very well appointed from kitchen to bedroom to bathroom. You can tell this isn't just for renting out at max profit. They didn't cut corners. They spent money making this place very nice. Very nice furniture, loving touches everywhere, comfortable beds, a lot of high-end design elements in bathrooms and kitchen. Internet was about 80 mbps...so more than enough speed for a family of four to all be on wifi and watch Netflix at the same time.
One thing I really enjoyed was how quiet the unit was during the day and evening. The master bedroom has no unit above it. We could hear the people walking above us in the living room/kitchen area but that's no big deal...it was never audible after 10pm...and not at all in the bedroom which is what really counts. Also, you're on the golf course but the vehicles the maintenance use in the morning are surprisingly quiet. The view from the patio is mostly of the 10th hole of the Kapalua Bay Course and I enjoyed sipping my morning coffee on the patio, working on my laptop and watching golfers tee off. You have a partial ocean view which was unexpected and the view is of waves crashing into a bluff which creates a wonderful sound that would put me to sleep when I woke up at 3am from jet lag.
One of the really nice parts too is the property shuttle service. The Kapalua Shuttle will pick you up promptly and deliver you anywhere on the Kapalua property. Friendly drivers. Sometimes they would be there in 5 minutes...sometimes 15 minutes...but they would usually tell you on the phone how long it would be so you're not waiting in the heat. This is a big bonus during Easter vacation because the crowds make parking near the beaches nearly impossible. We would be dropped off conveniently while we watched tourists driving endless circles looking for parking.
We rented our own boogie boards as the boogie boards provided at the unit were suitable for small children and small waves. There is a great boogie boarding beach nearby (DT Fleming) but the waves and break would probably destroy most of the boogie boards provided so we rented ours in Lahaina for $8 per day (or $24 per week). The boards provided are comparable to what most places provide so that's not an issue at all...just a recommendation that if you plan on boogie boarding a lot, I'd recommend renting your own higher end boards.
We had a perfect vacation and would give Sandra's extra stars if possible. Mahalo!
