Unit has perfect location just up the hill from main pool and beach access, easy parking. Furnishings are average but unit has updated kitchen with everything you need. Bed is comfortable. TVs nice with cable. No road noise and is on green belt looking at beautiful grounds and ocean view. Pools are clean, clear and well kept. Morning beach walks, runs, snorkeling and swimming within short walks. Get up early and get beach activities done as trade winds hit around 11am. We were snorkeling at 7:30 (north side of Ulua - walking distance, south side of Maluaka, north side of Makena Landing and incredible coral at Ahihi Kinau Bay). Quick bite after snorkel and hit the beach for relaxing swim and resting. We hiked the afternoons ( lava fields at the end of Mekena Rd, Haleakala sliding rock, Kapalua coast trail and Pipiwai trail). You need a car for affordable restaurants. The location was perfect for so many great beaches by heading south (walking or car) to get variety. And South is less crowded. Keawakapu beach at the bottom of the complex is a clear,beautiful Long Beach great for walks, runs, wading and swimming. Perfect until the wind picks up in the afternoon, great again in the evening. My hint - less is more for the beach. Bring your room key, leave your flip flops and towel at the pool and head out the gate to the beach of your choice. When done hit the shower inside the gate and then the pool. Never a worry about leaving things unattended on the beach. And nice only being weighted down by a key.

The condo: Perfect location, has everything you need, GREAT management and did I say perfect location. Air conditioning! The only negative Is that when living room and kitchen drapes/shades are open you can be a bit exposed if you don't close the folding doors to the bath/bed area. These don't work smoothly so easy to forget. Once we realized we simply closed them. I had to say something negative about this incredible place. Was so sad to leave and will do everything I can to stay here on our next trip. It is great. If you want first class hotels without the condo benefits just head a few hundred yards down the beach. If you want to relax without crowds in a beautiful setting with everything you need, this is the place.
