I recently returned from a full week (4/8-4/16/16) in this well-equipped and spacious condo and was wishing I had booked longer. It was truly hard to leave this Paradise! The last time I was in Wailea was 19 years ago on my honeymoon.

This time, I vacationed with friends. Wailea is rich, lush, and varied enough for couples, families, groups, and singles alike! The area of Wailea is the most desirable in the Maui - the "Garden Isle" as it affords activities, sight-seeing, gorgeous beaches and vistas, restaurants and shopping - or nothing at all but rest and relaxation!

We found the same in this open and airy condominium which lacked nothing! The space is filled with light and is tastefully appointed with a welcoming and uncluttered island theme. There are beautiful turquoise accents throughout the home (to echo the sea) and it immediately relaxes you upon entering.

We ate breakfast on the outdoor lanai and grilled our fresh-caught fish there in the evening! Lunches were usually spent by the pool with a picnic we had packed and could wheel down in the handy portable cooler! That same cooler was put to use in the evening to cart our cocktails where we would watch the sun set by the surf. Everything seemed to be included in this modern unit (including gorgeous nightly sunsets)!

For a group of women, having two full baths was imperative! We were able to wash our clothes and dry our beach towels daily. The sprawling pool area is to die for! With a kitchen area, covered spaces, comfy upholstered couches, plenty of lounge chairs and (our favorite) a gratis built-in water and ice machine to refill your glass or water bottle all day.

The Pacific ocean beckoned just beyond and the sand here was the softest I think ever felt! I swam in the ocean a few times and rented a bike for the week at neighboring South Maui Bicycles in Kihei (recommended!). The bike shop was conveniently located only 3 miles away and I was able to store the bike on the lanai during my stay.

It was really the most perfect vacation!
