We loved our stay! The condo is well equipped with everything you can possibly need! A few housekeeping items the dishwasher utensil basket needs to he replaced and the screen door in the master has lots of holes in it. The slider off the living room is really hard to close. We would definitely stay here again. The unit is very quiet at night also!!

Beautiful view and great location

Nice large balcony that is shaded the majority of the day and has beautiful views of the harbor and the sunset. It was big enough to accommodate 6 of us (with two teens on the foldout sofa who retreated to the bedroom when we early birds got up to drink coffee and watch the sunrise).

Great Stay in Kihei

The condo was very nice, clean and well equipped. The cooler and beach chairs were very much appreciated! The pull out couch makes things quite tight, but it was fine if folded up first thing in the morning, Fantastic view although it was quite windy for our 10 days so not enjoyable on the balcony past mid-morning. The pool was in great condition and kept very clean. Beach out front is not great, not a reason to stay here, but there are many lovely beaches a short drive away.

Great views and bird songs

The condo was lovely. They let us know it was ready the morning of the check-in date and we were able to check in early. :)The views were awesome and there must be birds nesting on the roof because the birds songs were notable! The ocean at this beach is more like a bay- very calm. Not a lot of crashing wave sounds, but would be great for paddle boarding or kayaking. The area around the condo was not very walkable, but lots of good things a short drive away. I'm glad we had a rental car.

WOW! What a great home, location, and experience

This property has everything. From great amenities for morning, afternoon, and evening - it has all you need. Having a hot cup of coffee while sitting on the lanai overlooking the beautiful ocean was the best start for the day. The beach chairs, cooler, and towels made our beach trips a breeze. Sitting in the hot tub and taking a cool dip in the pool after a fun filled day was perfect. Then when I accidentally left an important piece of my equipment behind, they mailed it to me!!! THAT IS SERVICE THAT EXCEEDS EXPECTATIONS. All in all this home was perfect for our weeklong stay.

Great View

The view from our unit was excellent. The pool water was crystal clear, very well maintained. Our unit was a two bedroom with king size beds. Only thing it would have been better for us a family of four if they’re been two beds in one of the bedrooms.

Great location

We had a great time and loved this place and location! It was conveniently located just to the north of the real commotion in Kihei but close enough to get to the stores and beaches relatively quickly. The hosts had everything you’d need, including all the beach toys and towels, very much appreciated! Great view, we were surprised on our last day to be entertained by musicians and dancers! So hard to leave. Will definitely look for this place when we can get back to the island!

This property is great! Met lots of nice people in the hot tub and the management is super responsive. This unit has great views of sunset and moon set. Turtles float out front first thing in the morning. Also love that it has a beach setup for 5, chairs, coolers, and umbrellas.

Great ocean view

The pictures don’t do this condo justice. We enjoyed watching the sunset right from the lanai. The beach is a short walk across the lawn. The condo is fully equipped with everything you need. Plenty of towels and linens and it was clean. Is in a good location if you tend to split your time between south and west Maui. We would stay here again for sure!

Would stay again

Beautiful ocean front view from the balcony. Comfortable beds. Updated kitchen appliances and cabinets. Kitchen well stocked with all things you could possibly need to cook and serve a meal. Large TV in living room and both bedrooms. Lots of channels to choose. My only negative comment is the extremely small shower in the 2nd bedroom. The lady at the check-in desk was friendly and helpful and the check-in process was quick.
