We really enjoyed our stay at the Shores of Maui. Jamie's apartment is clean and very well appointed - kitchen, bathrooms, towels, beach gear, tennis/pickleball, shopping bags, and lots of fans as well as A/C in the main room and the primary bedroom. The beds were comfortable, there was plenty of space, and the complex has a nice pool/hot tub, and tennis/pickleball court. Jamie was a very attentive host, provided great info, and was ready to help when we had a panic that we left something behind.
The location is fantastic. it's less than a 5 minute walk to the beach/waterfront, park, restaurants, shave ice, South Maui Gardens with almost 20 food truck options, gas station, you name it. Get in the car and explore all of Kihei within a few minutes' drive in any direction, continue south to Wailea/Makena, or go north and west to access everywhere else on Maui in no more than about 90 minutes.
Relative to the listing, the photo of "pool view off the lanai" is actually what you see straight from the largest exposure of the balcony. The views of the ocean are to the side. As for watching the sunset, that must be feasible in the winter. By early June the sunset was more visible from the porch by the front door than off the balcony. A very small thing in reality, though, because it's much nicer to walk across the street to the beach and watch from there.
We would definitely recommend it, and would also stay again if we return to Maui.
