We stayed in August. The rooms were clean and the kitchen was well stocked. Could use more detergent in the laundry though as it ran out at the end of our trip, The outdoor BBQ was great for cooking and we used it frequently. Since this is a down stair unit, the noise from above may be an issue. We had very quiet first few days until some kids moved in and keep dragging the furniture around. Overall, it is a good experience and I would rent from Debbie again.

Not What It Appears To Be

My husband and I stayed here for a week and were very disappointed. The main problem was the cockroaches. I called Debbie (manager) when I saw the first one and was told that the condo was recently sprayed and that it is not unusual for a ground floor unit to have cockroaches. She was somewhat dismissive of our complaint. We were vigilant about keeping food & any trash packed away or thrown out, nevertheless, the roaches came back in force. During the day, we counted 6 big cockroaches which was clearly disgusting. They were about 2 inches long and very scary. I slept on the couch, with the lights on, the last few nights. I’ve never been so happy to leave a place. My husband said “never again.” We travel extensively and have stayed in a lot of places all over the world and I saw more cockroaches in this Wailea condominium than I have seen anywhere else in our travels. Be forewarned!

Owner response:I am sorry they had such a bad experience in our condo. I talked with them twice on the phone. I was not dismissive and followed up with them after every conversation. They did not want anyone to come in and try to take care of this for them. Her husband was recovering from surgery and they wanted to be left alone. I did everything I could to make any concerns better for them. They said it was fine, they would be ok with things the way they were and I never heard from them again. I did all they would let me do to make their stay better. We have a professional cleaning company, we spray regularly for any bugs, this had nothing to do with cleanliness or up keep of our condol. ALL OF WAILEA HAD AN OUT BREAK AT THIS TIME AND EVERYONE WAS SPRAYING SO THEY HAD TO COME OUT. Sorry they had to experience this, but everyone in Wailea at this time had a similar experience. We did all we could for them.

My husband and I, daughter, son and daughter-in-law all enjoyed a truly wonderful week staying in your condo. The condo "fit" us perfectly, and met all of our needs. It was located close by some of the very best beaches where we enjoyed many hours of snorkeling (our equipment) and boogie-boarding (your equipment). We watched the sun set every night from our back yard, and listened to the many birds as we awoke every morning. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to have and share such a remarkable week in Maui. After all of our varied activities, we always knew that we had a comfortable place to return to. MAHALO!!!!!!!

We had a wonderful stay at this nicely sized condo. On a scale of 1-10-- an absolute 10! It was very comfortable and homey. The layout is great for privacy when needed and very open for shared activities. Location near the pool was great - and it was never noisy. Seeing the ocean from the lanai was a treat! We had great weather, mild for the time of year. The condo has so many windows that we had a great breeze our whole stay and never had to use the A/C once. We would highly recommend your home to anyone. Mahalo for another great stay in Maui. Tom and Karen

Aloha Debbie, We just got back from our stay at your home in Wailea. It was really wonderful!! On a scale of 1-10-- an absolute 10! It was very comfortable and homey. All the amenities from laundry soap to enough hangers in the roomy closets. Location so close to the pool was great. Gazing at the ocean from the lanai was a treat! We had great weather, mild for the time of year. The condo has so many windows that we had a great breeze our whole stay and never had to use the A/C once.

My wife and I recently enjoyed this comfortable and conveniently located condo. Debbie was very helpful in answering our questions before we rented the unit in July. Parking is very near this 1st floor unit and the complex is very low density with beautiful landscaping and views. We enjoyed long daily walks and especially enjoyed the nearby Wailea beaches and beautiful oceanfront walkway in the Wailea resort area. The king bed was comfortable, beach chairs, towels and mats were provided in the condo and barbeque grills are located conveniently (if you don’t use the electric grill on the patio). We enjoyed the sunsets from the two lounge chairs on the patio and the pool is nearby just below the unit. We rarely used the air conditioner because there is a wonderful breeze we enjoyed by keeping the large sliding doors opened. Peaceful, beautiful, well maintained complex with many mature flowering plants and trees to enjoy.

Owner response:They did enjoy their stay and would rent from us again. They wanted better knives and did not like electric bbq. We do our best!

Our Christmas in Maui was fantastic! We loved the location of this rental property, easy to accommodate everyone's needs. The large sitting room has great seating space with a great T.V. We really liked having the grassed area off the patio. This unit is really well equipped with cooking utensils that we were able to make any type of meal we wanted. I have definitetly kept the number of this unit for future references and am suggesting it to those who are thinking of heading to Maui.

17 days of bliss. Swim with coffee, beach in the morning, mai tais till sunset, dinner at the Four Seasons, then do it again the next day. The condo has everything you need. Debbie is a joy to work with. Can't wait to do it again, and again,...

We loved the location and comfort of the condo with its spectacular sunsets every evening. The pool was only a few steps out the door. There's a great beach less than 5 minutes drive with adequate free parking and free beach chairs available. It was our first trip to Maui, and we could not have asked for a better location. We would definitely stay here again.
