Thomas was a great host - flexible with timing (I needed to drop bags off somewhere before check-in), very communicative and responsive, and provided everything needed for a great stay.
The apartment is in a great location, especially for my needs (centrally located in Kihei, close enough to the boat ramp to walk), and my week-long stay was comfortable, clean, and restful.
The full kitchen was very welcome, after spending two weeks in an AirBnB without plates or bowls, so being able to feed myself a proper breakfast at 5am was great. I travel with my own miniature electric kettle for tea, btw, but there's a Mr. Coffee available.
Great tv, large bed, never had any noise issues from neighbors (and I was usually asleep by 10pm, so nights are certainly quiet; was there only once during the day and there *was* loud construction going on for part of the day, but that certainly isn't Thomas' fault). Charley Young beach is a 45 second walk from the apartment, so it's easy to catch sunrise & sunset.
Also, I must say, I really don't understand how some Maui ABB rentals don't have a couple of beach chairs or towels or general beach supplies, because pretty much everyone will end up spending money and time finding these things at the beginning of their trip. Thomas has a stack of beach towels in the closet, and on the balcony (which was also a lovely place for pre-dawn tea), you’ll find chairs and a cooler, and I left a couple of umbrellas for whoever comes next (they can be more difficult to find, tend to be more expensive, and are bulkier than most other things folks haul to the beach, so I hope to save someone the expense and pain in the arse of hunting them down).
I'd happily stay here again. Were I traveling with my partner, I'd probably lean towards something more romantic or indulgent, but if you're going out all day and needing a clean, well-stocked place to relax and sleep, this place is perfect.
