My husband, my 10 year old son and I rented this unit for a week. The property owner was very responsive during the booking phase. The unit was very clean, spacious and comfortable. The king-sized bed in the master bedroom was very comfortable and the murphy bed in the living room where my son slept was also very comfortable. This unit is in a building that sits behind other buildings in the Eldorado complex, but from the balcony you can see the ocean. There is nothing but golf greens between the Eldorado complex and the beach, with a paved path that takes less than 10 minutes to walk down to the beach. This unit had beach chairs, plenty of beach towels, kids' beach toys, and even sunscreen left by other visitors. If you didn't want to carry anything you could also use all the amenities at the Eldorado beach cabana. There was even a kitchen there to keep snacks and drinks cold while you play on the beach. The area of beach where the cabana sits is honestly our favorite strip of beach in this area. Even the locals who we met there preferred this beach area a lot. It was easy to play in the surf, and there is descent snorkeling around the rocks that jut out on the south end of the beach.

If you play tennis, this location is another plus because it is walking distance to the Royal Lahaina Tennis Ranch. My husband and I both played several times during the week. You do not have to be a member or guest of any hotel. Drop in drills are $10, and if you give them your name and # they will even help arrange matches for you. My husband and I came to Maui last year alone and every day we played tennis, ate lunch, snorkeled for hours, and had happy hour mai tais at a great local spot "Castaway Cafe"...also within walking distance.
