Kaanapali Alii is a fantastic property with awesome amenities and walking distance to many more, including a Starbucks & Ululani's. We were able to look inside other updated units on-site, and given their higher nightly rates, this particular condo is a good deal.

Unit #133 is well-equipped in a number of areas. In the kitchen, we were particularly excited to see a double-oven, blender (for fresh smoothies), four-slice toaster, and crockpot (for making meals while we were out playing!). There are great beach toys, including boogie boards, folding chairs, and a cooler. It was great having thermostats in each room, which allowed everyone to control their own temperature. The sliding doors to the awesome lanai are also connected to the thermostats so the A/C stops when they are open. The condo has its own WiFi network, but it seemed spotty at times. Someone left hand-written instructions on how to use the living room TV, so we added to it. Finally, the unit also overlooks the Westin's Luau, which was fun to watch!

A few items of note: The third bedroom is a converted den, so there is no closet, and the doors are just sliders. There are two steps up to the den, and the corners of the queen bed stick out a bit past the mattress, so it requires a little caution to navigate. The master bedroom has a walk-in shower, while the 2nd bedroom has a tub. Some of the towels seemed unlaundered (they might just be old), but that was easily remedied by the in-suite washer & dryer. The living room is a great space for adults to converse after kids go to bed, but it would be nice if there was more light for evenings (there was an abundance of light switches in the common area that didn't seem to be connected to anything). The kitchen sink disposal and dishwasher did what they needed, but they felt like they were on their last legs.

The condo seemed tired and dated in areas, but overall this unit was just what two families with small kids needed in a great complex & location. I wouldn't hesitate to use Freida & stay here again!
