Although far up in Kapalua, the Villa location was quiet, not crowded and very relaxing. The local beaches were an easy down hill walk, and the free shuttle service back was much appreciated at the end of the days. The Villa is large and has a great one-bed / two bath layout. The dining and living room area has a sliding glass wall that opens to an outside deck, which provides impressive and expansive views of the ocean and mountains. I am an early morning person and really enjoyed having coffee on the deck and being serenaded by the local roosters while watching the sunrise over the mountains. We also enjoyed having a glass of wine on the deck in the late evenings and listening to the crashing waves.
The Villa is very high end with marble tile floors throughout, granite kitchen counters, large modern refrigerator, solid wood furnishings, comfortable furniture, glass top stove, built-in wine cooler and all of the cooking utensils if you want to cook at home. A team of gardeners meticulously kept the lush landscape well trimmed. Everything inside and outside of the Villa was very clean and well maintained.
The close access to Highway 30 makes it easy to get to other locations on Maui. But the Villa’s location, quiet neighborhood and expansive views really sets a relaxing tone.
Following are two of our favorite finds: The beach in DT Fleming Park was our favorite in Maui, and we also enjoyed snacks and drinks at the Burger Shack (on the beach). Our favorite dining experience was at the Plantation House Restaurant at sunset. The food, views, service and acoustical musician were all magical.
We have stayed at many AB&Bs over the years, and this was by far, the highest quality and most enjoyable of all! We are hoping to stay in the same Villa the next time we return to Maui.
