Worked well for a family of 4.
PROs:
- Private beach was a HIT with my young kids. It was SO convenient to walk downstairs and let the kids play in the waves. We saw sea turtles on the sand and whales from the lanai.
-Love having a washer/dryer, full kitchen.
-boogie board, beach towels, sand toys were a great bonus.
-Never had an issue with parking.
-Close drive to some good food options (Miss Arepa, Fond, Joeys kitchen).
CONs:
-The apartment is tidy and neat but maybe not clean feeling. Tile floors and carpet felt sticky at the entrance and hallway. But I didn’t expect squeaky clean for an oceanfront apartment. The broom and vacuum they provided were used daily because kids.
-Location is Napili-Honokowai. Pretty north of everything. 10min drive to Lāhainā. 40min to airport. At least 1hour to upcountry.
-From the bedroom, you can hear the coming and goings of everyone in the building. Not terrible, but not ideal. (the fireworks were a racket on NYE though)
