Property/Unit : 133328 - "Relax in our nicely and tastefully remodeled Oceanfront Penthouse in Maui" Property Location: World, USA, Hawaii, Maui, Kihei Reviewer NickName: Pam & Rick Reviewer Location: Rock Hill, SC, USA Date of Arrival : Oct 10, 2009 Name on Contract : Rick Osborne Review Rating : 5/5 Review Title : 324992 - "A little piece of paradise!" "My husband & I were guests from Oct 10th - Oct 19th. The condo was very clean and decorated beautifully. Since it is located on the 6th floor (top floor) we were able to turn off the air-conditioning during the day, open the sliding doors in the living area and bedroom, and feel a great breeze throughout the condo. The view is fantastic and the condo quite relaxing. The beach area is not really a swimming beach, but a swimming beach area is only a short walk from the condo complex. The condo complex is very pretty, with a great pool, and very nice grilling area. Stores of all types are only a few minutes down the road, such as drug store, grocery stores, & multiple restaurants. Kihei has lots of beaches and it is ideally located on the island. While in Maui, the "must do" list is a visit to the Maui Tropical Plantation...taste the homemade ice cream....out of this world! (The tour was very informative too.). ALso, the Road to Hana...beautiful, a Luau, snorkeling, & dinner at Buzz's Wharf (pricey...but worth it). Thank you Hera for providing us with the wonderful gift basket...the pineapple was the most delicious we have ever ate, along with all the other goodies. Thank you for providing us with such an affordable, homey, beautiful place to spend our vacation. We have fell in love with Kihei. We hated to leave....Aloha! "

Property/Unit : 133328 - "Relax in our nicely and tastefully remodeled Oceanfront Penthouse in Maui" Property Location: World, USA, Hawaii, Maui, Kihei Reviewer NickName: April and Tim Reviewer Location: Calgary, Alberta. Canada Date of Arrival : Sep 7, 2009 Name on Contract : April Picicci Review Rating : 5/5 Review Title : 314418 - "Very comfortabe place to experience paradise." "We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Hera's condo. She had incredible customer service and was so accomodating. She also had a welcome basket waiting for us when we arrived. The condo was clean and fully equipped with everything needed for cooking, cleaning, entertainment and basic living necessities. The view from the lanai is gorgeous, although the beach right by the condo is not the greatest. However, there are so many beaches within a close distance that this was never a problem for us. We would definitely recommend this condo to our friends and would love to stay there again should we ever get back to Maui. We really enjoyed learning to surf and would also recommend attending a Luau while you're in Maui. Hera also gave us great suggestions on where to shop to find the best prices which was really helpful. Some restaurants that we really enjoyed are The Five Palms, the Pupu Lounge and Sansei Sushi bar. Another piece of advice...rent a car and pick up the latest edition of "Maui Revealed" and don't leave home without it! The road to Hana was incredible and that book is the bible of Maui.

Aloha Hera, We'd like to thank you for a wonderful time we had in your condo in Maui! Everything was perfect! We started every morning with a fresh fruit smoothie at lanai with beautiful views over the bay! Also, thank you for letting us use the snorkeling gear - for snorkeling, we went to Turtle Town (at the end of Makena Road). If you go early in the morning, the water is very calm and the views of the corals and colorful fish are amazing (we went at the further side of the beach closer to Molokini crater). We saw several turtles the last morning we were there. Mahalo and we cannot wait to come back! Regards, Nikita and Elena.

Return Visitors Westlake, Ohio. Date Submitted: October 29, 2008 Date of Stay: October 2008 My wife and I have not visited Hawaii for quite a few years and decided to stay somewhere other than Kaanapali. We were told of this condo by a mutual friend, who highly recommended it. Hera's condo exceeded our expectations. The unit was just as described, quiet, with a beautiful view of the ocean from the sixth floor. The lanai extends the full length of the bedroom and family room, accessible from both rooms. The kitchen was fully equipped with both major and numerous small appliances. It also had a number of beach chairs, snorkels, masks and other accesories in the room. The availabililty of the laundry across the hall was great. The pool had a large number of lounge chairs available and wasn't crowded, although we were there in the off season. Shopping and restaurants were close, as were beach areas where you could snorkel or surf. We would highly recommend this condo for anyone who simply wants to get away from crowds and experience Hawaii. Recommended for: Age 55+, Families with Young Children, Families with Teenagers, Girls Getaway

We really enjoyed our stay Kelly & Grant Seattle, WA. Date Submitted: October 29, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2008 We spent two weeks in your condo and were really pleased with our experience. It was clean and had all of the amenities you could need. We arrived to find a nice welcome basket. The owner even called to make sure everything was going well. We've never had that happen before with other rentals! We were able to grill several times on the BBQ's by the pool which was fun for a nice quiet evening. The pool is clean (other than the leaves etc on windy days!). It was very quiet around the complex which made our relaxing vacation even better. The great think about this condi is how centrally located it is to everything. Restaurants, groceries, attractions, golf, you name it. Its why we choose this location. Traveler review for this vacation rental (175151) 5/5 More than we expected!

Good Unit - Highly Recommend travelbug18 Washington USA. Date Submitted: September 02, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008 Hera was very friendly and helpful over the reservation process. Her unit is exactly the way she has described, very good value for money. The welcome basket she has provided addressed to me personally was a bonus. The unit was clean and well-maintained. I love the kitchen being so fully-equipped, I can cook my children's favorite fried rice. Ice cubes were readily available when we arrived for a cold drink in the hot weather. The air-conditioning was great. I made very good use of the beach towels provided since we are at the water every day and those that I brought are just not enough to circulate. The best part is that Hera even provides the famous CD for the Road to Hana so we don't have to spend on that. The condo is quiet, hardly anyone using the swimming pool even though it's summer so we had the pool to ourselves. Also the unit is at 6th floor very close to laundry so we don't have to walk too far with the heavy laundry. The unit is close to restaurants, close to supermarket like safeway for grocery shopping, and close to shops for tourist activities like snokeling and surfing rental and lesson, also close to the Maalea harbor for snokeling trip to Molokini, very convenient. I will definitely recommend this to a friend and will return to this unit if I go to Maui again.

Highly recommended! Ming and Deryk North Vancouver, Canada. Date Submitted: August 10, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008 We stayed at Hera's condo for a week. From the reservation process through follow up upon our return, Hera's customer service was top-notch. This was our first condo rental and after reading horror stories about condo rentals online, we were a bit nervous and had a ton of questions; but Hera answered them quickly and made us feel very comfortable every step of the way. Our late night arrival meant we had to get keys from the lockbox, which we were nervous about but proved to be a cinch. The condo is in great shape and exactly as described in the pictures and video. Elevators and laundry room were conveniently located right outside the unit. The oceanview was amazing. We used the BBQ area, pool and hot tub which are very well maintained. Overall we highly recommend Hera and her condo to everyone without hesitation! Thanks again for such a wonderful stay!
