If spending hours watching turtles play in the waves, or whales breach, or surfers and SUPers surf, from the comfort of your veranda, then Noelani 101 is the place for you! We couldn't have wished for a better stay in Maui. It is a well appointed 2 bedroom unit - perfect for a family (or a couple that like to live large). We loved being so close to the water, but its not immediately accessible if you want to swim - the beach is a short walk. Also not far from the veranda is a rocky point that the sea turtles love to rest on. On our last day we counted 14 turtles in the area. Noelani is a 15min drive to Lahainia and there are plenty of cool places to explore - not to mention a whale watching cruise! Which is a "must do" if you are in Maui in Jan/Feb - we lost count of the number of whales we saw. We loved our time at Noelani. I wouldn't hesitate in recommending staying here - and I hope to return sometime.
