"I wanted to personally thank you, Gail, for providing an excellent vacation rental condo. I stayed there one week, December 13-20 and had an excellent time. It was one of the few times that a place booked sight unseen turned out to be BETTER than expected. I especially feel glad that you took the time to write out carefully detailed notes and suggestions to all guests.
A great big MAHALO from me.

"What a little slice of paradise you have right here in your "Secret Garden" condo. We had a wonderful time and your condo could not have been better......
Sure hope to return to this same spot someday soon.
Thanks for everything!"

"It was the most relaxing holiday we've ever had, more so than any of our other stays in Maui and the unit, the location and time of year were certainly part of it"

Awaken to the sound of the birds inhabiting your jungle garden. The privacy and tropical foliage surround you as you enter your secret garden, one-bedroom apartment.
Beautiful furnishings and a pleasing paint palette create a comfortable and sophisticated home while you are here.
Located in the beautiful, plantation-style Grand Champions Villas, just a short walk from the gorgeous Shops of Wailea, the spectacular oceanfront path, and Wailea's five golden sand beaches, your secret garden retreat offers you high standards at affordable prices.
A luxurious, king-size, pillow-top, rattan bed with fine linens and ample storage create a bedroom retreat. TV with DVD available in bedroom as well as living room. Grand Champions will always offer you a quiet night's sleep.
The marble bath with walk in shower is spacious and inviting.
Updated kitchen offers you the opportunity to create your own island cuisine, or just have a liberal supply of ice for your cocktails before heading out to enjoy one of the many notable, nearby, dining options.
The living/dining area offers comfortable seating on the sofa/chaise with a private Garden View. The mahogany furnishings and plasma tv add an elegant touch to the fan or air-conditioned living space. Lovely breezes often are all you need to cool your fully tiled unit.
HIGH SPEED BROADBAND AND WIRELESS INCLUDED
The two pools are just a few steps away from your front door and offer hot tubs and gas barbecues for your enjoyment.
Oceanfront trail approximately 1/3 mile from Grand Champions. A number of Wailea beaches can be accessed from the trail, although we recommend taking the 2 minute drive to the closest beach, Ulua, as the return to Grand Champions is uphill. And, once in your car, (perhaps with beach chairs, umbrella, towels, cooler, etc.) there are many beaches available to you within a 5 minute drive. Try a different one every day or return to your favorite, perhaps one with not a building in site, again and again.
We look forward to welcoming you to our new Wailea Escape Secret Garden one-bedroom apartment.

Why the Owner Chose Grand Champions
Weather, privacy, lush landscaping, open space, no cement high rise buildings, wide boulevards, spectacular coastline, THE MOST BEAUTIFUL BEACHES, close to the 'end of the road'. Yet, easy access to all this fabulous island has to offer.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
The lush tropical landscaping is reminiscent of the greenery enjoyed by staying on the North (rainy) side of the island, but we have more sunshine than almost anywhere on Maui. This complex, with it's individual buildings, rather than high rise cement structures, scattered around 12 acres and, as you can see on the google map, away from all road noise, offers a real feel of being at home in a beautiful tropical oasis with Maui's best beaches just a few minutes away.
Closest beach - famed Ulua offers ample parking, restrooms, showers and grassy area. Lovely snorkeling at the north end. Along the Wailea trail.
A short walk from your front door..Matteo's offers excellent Italian in a casual atmosphere. (Chef from the Four Seasons)
Odd combo of tennis and restaurant, but this restaurant is open mainly for dinner and tennis mainly daytime. Great happy hour and early bird specials at Joe's. A golf cart will take you up and down
Restaurants in multiple price categories; Lapperts Ice Cream; Whaler's General Store & market; many shops in a lovely setting. Check who is performing on 'Wailea Wednesdays' for free; From high end j
1/3 mile long golden sand beach. This beach fronts the Grand Wailea and Four Seasons Hotels. Wide sandy area, gentle waves and snorkeling. Parking, restrooms and showers at the grassy knoll.
Lovely, golden sand beach with good snorkeling along rocky edges. Protected Parking, restrooms and showers. One of South Maui's most beautiful beaches and just 1/4 miles from your front door.

Retired from medical career and got younger in Maui. Love the active lifestyle, mostly centered around ocean activities. Have had the wonderful opportunity to be a part of the traditional Hawaiian outrigger canoe community, spending many sunrises on the ocean with the whales or turtles. Come join me on a Tue/Thur morning.

My husband and almost 2-year old daughter and I stayed in the secret garden apartment for 6 weeks. The apartment was perfect when we arrived and had everything to be comfortable. We loved the living room sofa which had a chaise section which made watching movies almost too comfortable. No 2-person tiny furnishings. The full-size kitchen was equipped for preparing any meal. There's tons of closet and drawer space. The bed was comfy with high thread count sheets and both down and polyfill pillows. Spacious bathroom with large marble walk-in shower with rain showerhead and riverrock floor. Having a full-size washer and dryer that worked well made life easy. There are 2 flat screen tvs, one in the bedroom and the living room. Gail's instruction list was perfectly detailed. We really didn't have any questions cuz everything was covered well. The pool areas were really nice with bbq's available. We would definitely recommend to others and we would stay here again.

My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed the time we spent in Wailea, Maui renting the "Secret Garden Apartment" otherwise known as VRBO rental listing #58293. The friendly owner was quite helpful in making certain our stay in Maui was as pleasant as possible. The apartment itself is lovely and well-appointed. Excellent instructions were provided concerning the amenities offered by the apartment and Maui in general. We fully recommend this apartment to anyone planning a stay in the south Maui area. Go for it!

We loved our stay in "the secret garden" Grand Champions in Wailea. This condo had everything we needed to make our 2 week stay our home away from home. With just minutes to the best beaches in Maui, we enjoyed the beautiful sand on our feet for our morning walks and the breathtaking sunsets every evening. We used the well equipped kitchen to create gourmet meals almost every night and enjoyed our Maui coffee on lani in the mornings. We have great memories to keep us going until we get back again next year! Maholo Gail & Leon for creating such a beautiful space for your guests. Julie & Lorne

We loved "our" secret garden. Arriving jetlagged, tired and admittedly cranky, it was hard to get a feel for the apartment, but when my husband woke me up the next morning so I could see the garden and hear the birds, we were absolutely hooked. Scheduled to stay for only a week before heading to Honolulu for our second week, from day 1 we wanted to stay there. The location is great, across the road from the Shops at Wailea, close to a pretty good pizza place Matteos and other restaurants,) certified that we are truly addicted to our devices - but we loved it - driving our friends crazy with daily updates of our time in Hawaii. This was our second time to Maui in 5 years, so we mainly relaxed. We did a whale watching tour, visited Lahaina and generally sat back and relaxed. Dealing with Gail these last few months was a pleasure. The quiet pool was terrific (we are pool people) - great place to meet and chat with people. My only complaint is that that the refrigerator is slightly damaged on the outside door, which seems like a petty comment, but it bothered me upon first seeing it, mainly since as mentioned above I was tired and cranky. Kitchen was extremely well stocked with basics and spotlessly clean. You really do need a car in Maui, and I enjoyed driving to the safeway, a big deal for me as I rarely feel comfortable enough to drive on holiday. - We are hoping to go back (maybe even in 2012).

We had a wonderful time. The apartment is gorgeous. The pictures don't really do it justice so we were surprised when we arrived because it's truly luxurious. Gail's suggestions were fantastic and my only complaint is that the time went by way too fast.
