After an extensive review of Maui oceanfront properties on the internet, my wife and I selected this unit for our 25th wedding anniversary. The details on the internet were all correct, but the photos only partially represent the quality this unit has to offer. When you open the door to the property and take that first step in, your breath is taken away by the quality of the unit and the view. The property and surrounding area is extremely well maintained with great ammenities. We really enjoyed the herb garden and barbeques. The owner was great to work with and even helped me as I had a little surprise for my wife when I invited other family members to join us at the end of the trip. When you plan something as special as a 25th wedding anniversary, you want everything A +. This unit did not disappoint!

Owner response:Thank you for your thoughts about our wonderful condo. How nice! The views continue to take our breath away, too. We always enjoy sharing this special place with people like you. You were delightful guests and we appreciate hearing from you...and thank you,too, for the excellent photographs...Maui alohas to you and yours!

We LOVE your place here in Maui! As you know, we've been to Polo Beach Club before......but never up here so high! Fabulous views, but your whole condo is furnished beautifully!!! Thank you so much for making it available to us!! The weather has been great, we've had wonderful swims, walks on "the walk", playing in the ocean, cocktails on the lanai......what more could we want??!! Your lovely place, so well equipped is definitely helping us get that R&R feeling immediately! We feel so fortunate in having found your "spot of paradise" here in paradise!! Thank you for sharing it with us. Sharon and Mike A...Sent from my iPad

I trust that the housekeepers found the condition of Polo 803 to be in exceptional shape after our departure. We cared for the condo as if it was our own - we really did not want to leave. Here is a testimonial for your use on your web site from us: EXCEPTIONAL! AWESOME! UNMATCHED BEAUTY AND COMFORT! Honestly, words do not describe the wonderful time we had during our visit to Maui and the Polo Beach Club 803. Your representation of the condo in our conversations and on your web site were right on. From the time we entered the unit to the time we left we were overwhelmed by the spotless cleanliness and comfort, breath-taking views, and the privacy that the condo offers. The condo is very well decorated and equipped with everything we needed. We enjoyed the upgraded outdoor grills, meticulously kept grounds, private condo pool, and easy and secure beach access. The condo beach chairs and shade umbrellas made for the best beach experiences ever - and the sunsets were spectacular. Our daily morning walks along the mile plus, paved path way (which starts at Polo Beach Club) provided us the opportunity to enjoy the sites of cliff-side ocean views and the other upscale facilities along the coast. Mahalo.... for the most memorable vacation and the best way for us to celebrate our 30th wedding anniversary. Don and Sue Chicago, Illinois June, 2010

Aloha!! We appreciate your willingness to share your home with others. We had a wonderful, much needed time-out from our presently hectic lives. It was very hard to come back after such a relaxing atmosphere. We loved our morning walks, great restaurants, and most of all - peace and quite. The condo was really nice and very comfortable. What a great location!! Thanks again for sharing your home. We hope to return in the future!

Owner response:Aloha across the miles...and thank you for your nice note. So happy to hear you had the relaxing get away you needed. Of course we are happy to welcome you back anytime...803 has a special circle of return friends like you. PS love the book! Very fun. Mahalo for your thoughtfulness.

Unit 803 was all you promised and more. We have stayed at most of the condo's in the Wailea area and yours is by far the nicest and best equipped. It is just like being at home. My wife was also impressed by how clean 803 was when we arrived (I believe she used the term "spit polished"). Unlike most rental condo's, the kitchen has everything you need and the appliances are top of the line. The furniture is top quality and very comfortable. You truly do feel you are "at home" on Maui. Plus...you have the incredible views from the lanai!!!! The, ocean, Molokini, and awesome sunsets. You couldn't ask for more. But there is--you are located right on Polo Beach, which is the nicest and least crowded beach in Wailea. I would highly recommend unit 803 to anyone planning a trip to Maui. I also have to tell you that you that we have rented many "individually owned" vacation rentals over the years. You have been by far the easiest and most friendly owner we have dealt with. We could not have asked for more. Thank you so much.

Owner response:You were great guests! We appreciated your savvy Floridian calm and help when extreme high winds were forecast during your stay...they didn't deter you abit. As usual, the gales fizzled out before reaching Maui. So glad you had a good time and enjoyed this wonderful condo. We appreciate your nice comments. We love this place, too. Thanks for sharing and letting us know how much you enjoyed everything.

Apologies for not writing sooner - my practice exploded on return home and I am now just able to catch my breath! So so many thanks for allowing Peter and I to use your wonderful home on Polo Beach. We had a marvellous time - did not wander too far (one trip to Molokini on the Kai Kanani, and half a day in Lahaina). There really was no need! Loved your home - the best part is that it feels like a home! Must tell you that we lived on the lanai, don't believe that we even sat once in the living room! Thanks again! Jocelyn Kelley

We are heading home after an extra week in kauii, but our favorite place was polo 803. I was a bit nervous about booking thru vrbo but everything exceeded our expectations: the location, the views, the amenities of the unit, the beach front and best of all, incredible snorkling from the beach! We would return in a heartbeat and will recommend to friend , thankyou

Owner response:Mahalo for your nice comments. We understand some apprehension when renting sight unseen. Photos help, but still there's the unknown factor so we try to make sure everything is upfront and no one's disappointed. Having such an outstanding unit in such a perfect location helps make it a good fit for all involved. Glad you discovered this condo...it's a captivating place that beckons us all to return. We'll keep the welcome mat out for you.

Another nice comment: Thank you Jim & Loretta Wieler of Canada for your note and permission to share your comments. "Aloha Sandra, We just got home this afternoon, are pretty tired from the long trip back. Just wanted to let you know how very much we enjoyed your amazing home in paradise. First impression, standing in the entrance of your condo, looking through to the view, literally took our breath away. Jim and I went out to the lanai and both got goosebumps! We feel blessed to have stayed there. Beautifully decorated, obviously a labour of love. So many nice touches. We felt very comfortable and pampered. We were somewhat saddened to leave but at the same time it was good to be home. We did do many of the touristy activities and we took much of the time just enjoying the condo. Will send the keys back this week. We are hoping someday to contact you again for another stay in your sunsational home! Loretta and Jim"

Polo Beach Club, especially #803, exceeded our expectations. From the moment we opened the door and were greeted by the spectacular view, and the beautiful unit itself, we were thrilled. We would not hesitate to return (and can't wait to do so!).

Owner response:A belated mahalo Elaine and Andy for your comments. It's our pleasure to share this wonderful condo with those who appreciate quiet upscale accommodations.
