Eve and Scott were great hosts with their quick and precise communication. The place was as pictured, with ample space indoors and on the lanai. We really liked how convenient the place was - beach equipment in the unit, washer/dryer in-unit, distance to shops/beaches, comfortable living space with many fans provided.
However there were a few (minor) things we encountered that may factor into one's considerations:
- As noted by a few others, parking at the larger lot at the end of the road is relatively far from the unit. And one has to go through a small maze of stairs between different blocks to reach the unit -- we initially had some difficulty locating the unit lol
- Somehow we could not find a kettle in the kitchen. Not a big deal as we ended up boiling water in a pot, but we did find it odd for an otherwise well equipped kitchen.
- While there was a dishwasher with dishwashing pods, there was no liquid soap provided. Once again not a big deal, but we are just not in the habit of accumulating a big batch of dirty dishes and like to wash individual dishes immediately after we use them...
- Aside from a small bar of (hand) soap, there was no shower gel or shampoo provided. Now I know these things should not be *expected* of an airbnb rental, but if I recall correctly this was actually my first airbnb rental without such amenities provided.. Honestly it is not a big deal again, but it meant having to plan an extra trip to the nearby ABC store (which after a long day of hiking/snorkeling one doesn't want to do, even if it is but a couple minutes' drive away)
Once again I stress these are all minor and personal quirks for us, so may not apply to others.
Overall, I would recommend the place as a good place to explore Maui from.
